Storyline

In Hannah's world, when her mother cries it rains. When her mother prays, it rains paper. Lynn has lost her husband Graham and now her daughter Hannah as well. While Hannah rests peacefully deep within a coma induced by a tragic car accident, Lynn revisits the family's painful past. Graham, long since deceased, gives spirited advice to his daughter in a fantastical garden world, where Hannah now lives out her days. Upon discovering Hannah's childhood journal, Lynn believes there is a chance to come to know her daughter, before it's too late.

Trivia

The fantasy garden, where the exteriors for "Left to Blossom" were filmed, was actually on flood watch because of unusually high rainfall in the area. The entire cast and crew of the production was on standby for evacuation if the rainfall increased. Thankfully, it did not.
