Product and growing context

From the original farm mailing

The original mailing recorded these observations: “Montbretial Flowers are very versatile.  We sell the red Lucifer flowers in bud stage and then we sell the montbretia pods later in the Fall.  It is also possible to sell the crocosmia leaves.” “Blueberries, Gloriosa Lilies, Ninebark, Montbretia, All Shades of Hydrangeas” “We sell Gloriosa Lily on the Vine.  3 stems in a bunch with a minimum of 3-5 flower buds/vine.” “We have a full selection of fresh colored hydrangeas available right now.  We feature rich colors and large heads.”
