The two adults, Papa Bramble and Aunt Zinnia, take care of their five children: Periwinkle, Poppy, Mistletoe, Dandelion and Violette. "Room to Move", the first episode in the official production order, deals with the family's move to their new house at Blueberry Hill. The first season has been broadcast on TF!
