The Cycle of Life: Recycling Our Flowers for a Greener Tomorrow

At Colibri Farm Collection, we believe every bloom has a purpose, even after its beauty fades. Recycling flowers is a vital part of the cycle of life, turning wilted blooms into rich compost that nourishes the soil, helping new plants grow. When flowers are composted instead of thrown away, they enrich the earth, reduce waste, and contribute to a sustainable future.

To recycle your Colibri blooms, start by removing any non-compostable materials, such as ribbons or kraft paper ties. Then, trim the stems into smaller pieces to speed up decomposition. You can add them to a backyard compost bin or sprinkle them directly onto your garden beds as natural mulch. Flowers naturally break down, returning essential nutrients to the soil. By giving your blooms this “second life,” you honor the full cycle of nature and support a greener planet. Embrace the beauty of sustainability, and know that every bouquet is designed with love for the earth in mind.
