VIRGINIA BLUEBELLS (Mertensia virginica) signify t

VIRGINIA BLUEBELLS (Mertensia virginica) signify the beginning of spring down at my family’s property on the Rockcastle River... Momma trained us three boys to compete to bring her the first Bluebells every year and it was especially fierce between brother Dusty (pictured here in 2019 as the winner 🤬🤬🤬🥰) and I growing up. Brother Buzz informed me today that Dusty gathered a huge bouquet and took over to her grave in her beloved Clay County (when Dusty played football against Clay County in high school she cheered for Clay County from inside her white @cadillac that she drove overlooking the football field because she was NOT standing out in the cold when she could have heated seats and listen to Mahogany with Diana Ross!😩😂😂😂🥰 SHE was a piece of work!) We truly have 10,000 blooms that came naturally, along with so many other amazing wildflowers. We open back up for the season this coming Friday, April 16th and look forward to seeing y’all for our 66th year of business! 💙💙💙🇺🇸 #carloftisstyle #momma #marcum #mcwhorter #bowling #cornett #claycountykentucky #beautiful #love #family #familyhome #danielboonenationalforest #rockcastlerivertradingcompany #happiness #wildflowers #flowers #bluebells #childhood #bestchildhood #loyalty

ROCKCASTLE RIVER TRADING CO. Is opening up for the season next Friday, April 16th! You will get to walk under our new cedar arbor by @tojagrid and get to see around 10,000 Virginia Bluebells along the River. Plus, lots of new garden inspired gift items in the store to purchase for your home and garden. Open Tuesday-Saturday 10-5 and CLOSunday and Monday. Please feel free to walk the property (essentially a privately funded park since 1955) but during business hours only! Insurance doesn’t allow it. We do not allow weddings except for our family but everyone takes their family photos which is fine but during business hours only and please support to store which pays for the yearly maintenance/upkeep/flowers. Just telling it like it is...💪🇺🇸 #carloftisstyle #rockcastlerivertradingcompany #garden #gardens #nativeflowers #privatepark #danielboonenationalforest #family #familyhome

SPRING Friends, if you think I’ve forgotten abou

SPRING Friends, if you think I’ve forgotten about you, I haven’t. This is our BUSY time (well, it’s always busy and have only missed that one week of snow/ice, working everyday of 2019,2020 and 2021 other than Sundays) so please understand if you aren’t hearing from me. If you have accountant friends, you know not to even talk to them from January to April 15th...Hell no! They are on the move, and on April 16th, they collapse into a two week (at least!) coma. BTW, my accountant Donna Smith is the GREATEST! Garden business is the same, it’s a blur. I finally take a deep breath 4th of July weekend. But, right now, working all day and then coming home to work in my own garden until dark every evening. If you do the work now, in July-October, all ya have to do is water and weed (and fix the cocktails for garden tours for close friends) In the meantime, trying to give BEAUTY, helpful IDEAS and a POSITIVE outlook on life...See you after the 4th!🇺🇸🕺💪 #botherum #garden #gardening #gardentips #gardenideas #spring #work #gardeninspiration #hobby #ilovemyjob #happy #tiredbuthappy #joncarloftisfinegardens
