Red House Farm Flowers
Приєднався 11 сер 2012
Hello my name is Chesny and I am a flower farmer here in Kent - the garden of England. I am now in my third year of growing and am loving the journey so far! I am excited to share more of my flower farming experience here on UA-cam, including any tips and tricks which have helped me along the way.
I sell hand tied bouquets locally, as well as DIY wedding flowers. I am hoping to expand the business over the next few years to including workshops and other exciting flowery things...

Thought it was about time I showed you an update of the new growing area. No where near finished but it'll work as it is for the current season. I can definitely see this space evolving over time. I'm excited to watch more blooms come to life as the season gets going. It's been a very strange start to the year with the weather being so mild and wet! Hopefully things start to pick up and we get ...

Quickly filmed this video on our Son's birthday to show the new dahlias for 2024! They arrived in the post whilst we were out enjoying our lovely family trip out. Managed to pot them up in the afternoon in the greenhouse. I have lots of other new additions to the dahlia family from some other suppliers... keep your eyes peeled for those ones too :) Dahlias are one of my favourite flowers in the...

I thought I would put together this short UA-cam video of me harvesting the first of the 2024 tulips! These are my Parrot tulips. They are supposed to be a variety called Silver Parrot but they look slightly different so I'm not so sure. I adore Parrot tulips! So much more sass than your regular single tulips. You won't find these beauties in your local supermarket that's for sure! I love how t...

We are right in the peak of our growing season here in the UK as well as setting up a whole new gr...

Planting out my Autumn sown Sweet Peas in the Poly Tunnel to create a beautiful Sweet Pea wall. Attempting to tick off a few jobs on my list with a toddler in tow!

How I plan my flower beds
Переглядів 186Рік тому
I thought I would share a little video on how I do all of the planning here at the farm and how I work out how many seeds to sow for each of the flower beds. I mentioned that I use an online tool to calculate how many plants per bed and this is; www.omnicalculator.com/biology/plants . All you need to do is type in the bed width and length and the spacing requirement for the plant. It will then ...
