Jill Bliss is an artist (and naturalist, educator, farmhand, caretaker, and deckhand) who lives on a small island in the Salish Sea in the Pacific Northwest. In 2012 she sold her house and nearly everything she owned to move to the island and reconnect with nature after a busy career as a designer in New York and San Francisco. Using a wide assortment of the beautifully vibrant wild fungi she finds, Bliss turns them into stunning arrangements and photographs them for a project she calls Nature Medleys. See below for a collection of some of our favorites. You can follow the artist on Instagram, and you can also find much of her work for sale in her online shop.

Blush Cupcakes Cosmos is a knockout! This was my first season to grow this variety and it did not disappoint. Delicate pink blooms with central petals give the blooms the appearance of cupcake wrappers. Some of the plants produced single blooms so not all will have the extra layer of petals. Each plant produces buckets of flowers for cut flower arrangements. I harvested a lot of blooms and still had plenty in the field for the butterflies and bees to enjoy. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds. Cupcakes Blush Cosmos can be grown as an annual in zones 3-10. Once the plants are established they are extremely drought tolerant. Deer don't seem to bother Cosmos. The flowers are attractive to many of the smaller skipper type butterflies. Annual cosmos is also great to bring pollinators of all types into the garden. All seeds come packaged in a simple kraft paper envelope. Each order comes with complete seed starting and growing instructions.
