ridget Wilson unearthed a hidden passion for flowers at Walnut Springs Farm near Middleburg where she lives with her family. She began by reading everything available, then went to work digging and planting. She has learned to nurture the seeds as well as plant the tubers. Now she’s a member of the Middleburg Garden Club and has earned a number of blue ribbons. The American Dahlia Society recognizes 15 colors, 18 forms and nine sizes and it is the National Flower of Mexico. The bright red beauty is called ‘Audrey Grace’.
