Hey there, I’m Rachel!

 

Welcome to Every Bloom Flowers — I’m so glad you’re here!

My flower journey began in the summer of 2020, right before my freshman year of high school. It all started with a simple gift: a packet of zinnia and cosmos seeds. I had no idea what I was doing, but I decided to give them a shot — just to see what would happen. To my surprise (and delight!), the seeds sprouted, grew tall, and eventually burst into colorful, joyful blooms. That moment sparked something in me I never expected — a deep love for growing flowers.

​

The following spring, I took a leap and wrote a handwritten letter (yes, good old snail-mail!) to one of my favorite flower businesses. Not long after, they generously sent me a large box of dahlia tubers. I still remember the excitement of opening that box! Planting those tubers marked the start of my obsession with dahlias — and, soon after, I was completely hooked on the beauty of locally grown flowers.

​

Since then, Every Bloom Flowers has grown with me. Thanks to the handful of backyard blooms I grew in 2020, I’ve fallen in love with flowers and I now grow a mix of dahlias, cheerful seed-grown annuals, and hardy perennials — all right here in beautiful Burlington, Washington.

​

Beyond growing, I’ve slowly cultivated a love of floral design. There's something so special about arranging flowers into something meaningful — whether it's a spontaneous bouquet for a friend or an artful centerpiece for the table. I would call myself currently an 'aspiring florist'. Someday I may be creating wedding florals and sharing more of my design work as I continue to learn and grow! Who knows?! But for now you could say I’m “dabbling” in the florist world, and loving every minute

of it :)

 

Whether you're a fellow grower, a flower enthusiast, or just someone who loves a good bouquet, I’m so grateful to share my love of flowers with you!

​

Thanks for stopping by — I hope Every Bloom Flowers brings a little extra seed of joy and beauty to your day.

 

Happy growing, friends!
