Thanks so much, I am really glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks so much for watching 🙂 I hope you enjoy the videos. I am looking forward to a few more daylight hours soon and getting this years flower seeds started!

Hello, it’s lovely to hear from you and that you enjoyed watching my catch up video. I am enjoying growing my flowers still and looking forward to this years new season in the garden x

Thank you, not long now until those extra daylight hours and then seed sowing can get started! 🌱 🌺

Thanks so much for watching. Keeping a diary and looking back at the photos from the garden last year always really helps me work out what I am going to do this year.

Thanks so much, it’s good to be back and I’m looking forward to growing some more flowers this year.

Thank you so much for watching.

Thank you for watching, it’s lovely to hear from you. I am def so much better at making time for myself now than years before. The weeds sometimes just have to wait! Some days you just have to have some down time after work and then it’s a nice dog walk, meeting a friend for a cuppa, swim or movie night with the girls. So the UA-cam videos will still be here but a bit more sporadic depending on how crazy life is at the time! Spending time in the garden in the summer evenings though I do really love after a day in hospital x

Hello, lovely to hear from you! Good luck with the new growing season. The winters are def hard with less pennies coming in as a full time grower but spring is not far away so I hope you get some cracking blooms then. Are you growing many tulips? I am so glad I have my flowers and garden to come home to in the spring and summer months. It’s lovely after a day inside and the challenges of the job to potter in the flower patches. I hope you have a great season and didn’t have too much damage from the storm last week xx

Thank you 🙂 it was lovely to get another video out to you and have time to look ahead to what to grow this year. Another wild night outside tonight so not quite there with the end of winter but lovely to have a little more light in the evenings so I think this is the weekend to start some sweet peas off.

@@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm We are having a very mild week here in GA USA. Our daffodils and tulips are growing by the day.

Thanks so much for watching this one 🙂 It’s been nice to get a video to you all and start thinking about what to grow this year! Will definitely be careful not to take on too much and have some nice breaks planned at different times so looking forward to those! X

Thank you. I have done a bit of both over the years, some bought plants and some grown from seed. The seed sowing has worked but it does take time. I have sown in the autumn in seed trays and nothing happened. But if you leave the seed trays over the winter the changes in temp help and I would get germination in the spring. That was the most difficult bit getting them to germinate. After that the seedlings came on well.

Thank so much, it’s good to be looking forward to another season of flowers.

That’s good to know thank you. It really does spread quickly and get everywhere.

Thanks so much and for watching today. I am looking forward to getting my seeds started off again for this years flowers.

Thank you, it’s great to hear from you and I hope your season has been a good one this year x

Hello 🙂 it’s lovely to be back and sharing the flowers and probably the weeds again with you! The storm I was worried about. A lot of trees came down locally but very luckily for us none did come down in the garden. The flower patch fencing needed a bit of fixing, the stall roof got broken but the greenhouse survived. So very lucky. Thanks so much for watching today 🙂

Hello, lovely to be back and thinking about flowers again. I have got some from moles seeds, some from plants of distinction before. Thanks for watching 🙂

Hello, thanks so much for watching. There are so many lovely foliage and I wish I had more! You can never have too much! I love eucalyptus and it’s easy to grow from seed. What I struggle with is getting in through the winter. I love using skimmia, spiraea, physocarpus, snowberry. I really love pittosporum to use in arrangements but unfortunately lost this in the very cold winter we had a few years back. The other foliage above has got through all our winters and thrives here in Scotland.

@@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm I did get some physocarpus last year it is lovey but such a dark red I felt I could only use it with certain colours. Pittosporum died on me too think the winters have been exceptionally wet these last years my mums eucalyptus all went grey/ yellow I think from wet feet even though they were in containers. Will look into the others you mentioned thank you!!

So good to be back and planning flowers to grow again. A lot of work to do outside and looking forward to the lighter nights starting and being able to get back outside in the garden then. Thanks so much for watching today 🙂.

Thank you 🙂 it’s lovely to be able to get a video out again and to think ahead to next year, the garden and growing some lovely flowers.

Hello, thank you, it’s lovely to back. Just spotting the first snowdrops out today and hearing the birds singing in the garden. Not long until everything is growing away again x

Thank you so much for watching 🙂

Hello thanks so much for watching. I have got blue statice seeds here in the UK from Moles seeds. I think they do some overseas shipping but not sure about Canada.

Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much for watching. I am glad you found it helpful. My greenhouse is unheated too, so I often end up taking things indoors in the house in the winter if it’s a really cold snap and then get them back in the greenhouse when it’s milder.

Thank you for watching 🙂

Lupins are fantastic aren’t they and seem to like our climate. I can’t seem to manage zinnia either. I have had a lot of attempts but just can’t get them to thrive here. My sweet peas were really good last year so I am hoping to grow more this year. I will have to get them started when this cold spell is over. You would have had some great colour in your garden last year with the nasturtiums, calendula and yarrow.

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm I spread my colour around this isle. All raised in my porch. Hardened off in plastic storage boxes or not at all. Sowed seeds and local polygrubs and LHHP were gifted me 😁🙏🤸♥️

It is possible to make your own germinating compost. I sometimes use the compost sieved from our homemade supply for seed germinating and can add a bit of vermiculite, perlite or sand to it. We made our heated propagating bench ourselves.

Thank you so much for watching and I am really glad you are enjoying my videos. Hopefully I will get some new ones out next year when the growing season starts again.

That’s amazing you did a friends flowers from what you could source down by the canal. It would have been beautiful and very natural. Meadowsweet does smell lovely in the summer.

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm they looked and smelt divine

I love statice too. It’s so versatile using it fresh or dried, so many colours to choose from and stands up really well in any flower arranging out of water.

Nigella is such an amazing flower and such pretty varieties you can grow. A great self seeder too! That’s great you got some lovely ones flowering last year. Are there any other cut flowers you have had success growing? You are in such an amazingly beautiful part of the world and we have spent some very happy holidays in the Hebrides. Thanks for watching 🙂

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm cosmos, lupins, calendula all did well 🙏

Hello, thanks for watching and Happy New Year! Yes so many people do use soil blocking now. I have never tried it. I suppose because I have found a way that works for me with the trays. I think I always was hesitant to try soil blocking as I thought the soil blocks would dry out quickly if I did not keep on top of it and I was not sure I would get the composition right when making up the blocks. I think if I had more time then maybe I would experiment to see which worked better for me. Maybe something for the future!

Thanks so much for watching. I am glad you found it helpful.

Thank you very much for watching. I am glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks so much for watching 😊 the name of the spirea is spirea bridal wreath. I love using it in bouquets.

The best time to cut amaryllis for the longest vase life is before the flowers open but the buds are full and soft. You can cut them when they are in flower but the vase life will be shorter. You could always snip off any blooms that are starting to fade so you can still enjoy the other buds when they come out.

Thank you very much for watching. I am glad you enjoyed the video.

Thank you so much, I am really glad you are enjoying them.

They are lovely, so pretty 😍

Thanks so much for watching. It’s a great annual to grow. I hope it’s successful for you next year.
