Don't mind me! I'm just dying over this color palette right now! 😍😍😍🤩

Nothin' like an armload of sultry colored zinnias to put you in a good mood! Also, it's the hummingbirds favorite place to hang out, so I like to visit the patch throughout the day to watch them flitter around from flower to flower. This morning was a much overdue deadhead session that turned into a full fledged harvest! Am I disappointed? Never! 😍

I've heard that sweet peas make great companions for roses, but I've always grown them in rows for the farm until this year! I grew all my sweet peas along my roses fence and holy smokes! It's my favorite place! I also underplanted sweet alyssum, pansies, and love in a mist. Soooo happy with this magical fence line this year! Also... can't ever get over these gorgeous King's Ransom sweet peas alongside my bliss parfuma and sharifa asma roses! 😍😍😍💖 Heaven!

Looking for advice from a retiring flower farmer? 😄🤗 I got you! I get asked a lot of questions from friends about what I've learned and advice I'd give, and while it's not always applicable to everyone, this message today felt like a good one to share! So here are a few key takeaways I've learned and flowers I'd recommend for those starting out! ...

1- And truly THE MOST IMPORTANT...
Don't be afraid to do what speaks to you most! You have a unique take on the world, on beauty, on scent, on design...
And... There is a market that will be drawn to what you do, whatever it is!

Easiest flowers to grow that I've experienced (annuals list).. (and if you don't know, annuals only growing one year and then die, but many reseed). These are all true annuals...

Zinnia, scabiosa, cosmos, bachelor buttons, orach, Amaranth, sunflower, ornamental grasses, snapdragons, companula, cress, calendula. Now, I wouldn't say those are all my favorites, but definitely easy.

Personal favs (annual + perennials)...

Snapdragons, zinnia, celosia, delphinium, peony, scabiosa (both annual and perennial varieties), lemon basil, foxglove, echinacea supreme cantelope, geum, iris, sweet peas, lisianthus, ranunculus, anemones and garden roses. Dahlias are pretty high, but they as well as ranuncs, anemones and lisianthus are much more work in my climate than these others. Unless you buy plugs of lisianthus, then they are very reasonable to grow.

As far as selling and business. Make yourself very VISIBLE!! Both your face and with regularity in posting on social media. Be in your posts. Do videos. Let people get to know you. But post LOTS of pretty things. It's great for people to see the actual work, but make sure your feed is PRETTY! As much as people love to see the behind the scenes, when they come to your page, if it's not esthetically pleasing, you won't get the followers you're looking for.
Work on your photography and have a look, a background, a color scheme if you can manage it, and a rotation of the type of content and info you're sharing. Also, try to determine a niche that will identify you and your brand. ❤️

Can't wait to see what you create!!

Snapdragons. I would have to choose snapdragons. If I absolutely had to limit myself to just one annual for cut flowers in my garden.
Climate plays a big role in that choice. I can start them indoors easily, plant them out while its still quite cold in the spring, and since It's cool enough here, they bloom all season for me once they get going! They start early, bloom all summer, and continue into the first few frosts if I keep them cut!
Fragrance is another factor.
And finally.... sheer beauty and compatibility for mixing them with everything else! They are stunning as a standalone, but compliment basically every other flower I've ever put them alongside of.

Their downside? Thrips magnets. But then, what isn't really? The devilish little menaces will wreak havoc in any and every bloom they can. Nothing some blue solo cups, cooking spray, and droves of beneficial insects can't take care of. 😂😅

All in all, I'll keep the snaps... in every form and color! 😍🫶

Me and all my little flower loving crew. 🥰 I am so lucky to be their mommy, I am so lucky to get their little sweet selves shaping my world and experiences. I am so beyond grateful for the love and fulfillment they bring me. Even when they drive me crazy I can't imagine my days without them!

These perfect little beauties almost seem too perfect to be real! And though I have always somewhat despised it when people have said they thought my flowers were fake because they were so pretty... (I have always felt that was silly since the flower artists are striving to make their replication as beautiful as the real thing, 🙃 though some talented artists truly are capturing every perfect detail in their craft! 👀 Looking at you and ) ... these little Japanese anemone are honestly just the most delicate and seemingly unreal treasures. I wish they bloomed all season. They never fail to add the most romantic touch to anything I put them with!

Do you know this one?...

Of all the flowers I grow, this beauty is the most frequently mistaken for a peony! It's easy to see why, of all the varieties of tulips I've grown, this beauty is the closest resemblance to a peony.

I think the main reason is her size... she is massive! Truly peony worthy in size, which is rare in double tulips! Photos never do justice for the size of anything, but when fully open these ones are about 6 inches across while maintaining a deep, roughly 4 inches deep, cupped form. Absolutely STUNNING!!

She also has a breathtaking color range! I tried to harvest a good range for this photo... she can vary from a deep scarlet red to orangy to peachy to pinky/peach, to yellow! It's quite the show in the garden! She quite simply glows!

I got to play with some of my most beautifully fragrant, early flowers yesterday for some people with memory loss in our area. I hope the scent of the hyacinth with help to comfort and stir fond memories. 🩷

What flower scents are the most rich with memories for you?
