Gardener Jodi Martin snapped this shot of a bright green tree frog nestled in a Hollyhill Black Beauty dahlia, one of more than 300 varieties growing at Rusty Bucket Flower Company in Prior Lake. “I rescued it before it got sent off to the flower shop,” says Martin, who was surprised to find the frog in a bouquet of cut flowers she was preparing to deliver. Martin was inspired to start growing dahlias when she planted some for her own wedding bouquet in 2019. Read more about Martin and her dahlias in our upcoming April/May issue.
