Dahlia Growing in the South: Erica Penn Fleur Paws Flower Farm

This week my guest is Erica Penn located in Portland TN. She’s been growing flowers for several years, but recently relocated from the Philadelphia area to my back yard and it’s been a pleasure to get to know her and her beautiful flowers, especially dahlias. Her business is called Fleur Paws Flower Farm where she cultivated flowers with the help of her Golden Retrievers. Seeing her flowers first hand on a regular basis, I’m thrilled Erica’s my guest this week.

In this episode, Erica shares about moving her flower farm to the South, the importance of soil testing, and growing dahlias in heat and sun pressure.
