I am so glad I found your channel. Confession, I have a large raised bed potage garden and slowly getting it up to speed. For the past two years I grew mostly veggies with only a hand full of flowers. At times, I asked for help from my family, but they were only willing to take what I grew. This year, I decided to only grow the few vegetables my wife and I like, and go nuts on flowers. Thanks for all your tips. Wish me luck. P.S. 2nd year Master Gardener student.
I see lots of people love veggies but I’m into the beauty of gardening…give me a flower (usually a dahlia 😅) anyway. Thanks for the info…I’m thinking about soil health now 😊
Love Love these! I live in Evergreen, CO so love that I found you!! Would love to have a planting diagram video for each of these palettes. I have enjoyed the Peachy Palette but would love to see the others!! Thank you. :)
Thank you for sharing these! I have realized that I am not as much of a creative person, but more of a copier of things that I like. I also love when you give the information on native plants and invasive species. The color of the flowers was more true when you had the flower on the table, as I think the light coming in the windows darkened it when you held them. Beautiful flower arrangements!
You are such a wealth of information, so easy to listen to, and you have such a lovely aesthetic! As a market gardener getting into flowers intentionally this year, I have really benefited from your videos! And I found you maybe a month or 2 ago!! Thank you for the amazing content. 💚💚💚🌱🌱🌱🌻🌻🌻
I hope when it gets time to take chrysanthemum cuttings you’ll show us how to propagate! I have several of the varieties you mentioned on order and can’t wait for blooms
This was so helpful and fun! Starting my first cut flower garden. I live in Colorado too so appreciate all the drought tolerant native recommendations!
Such a comprehensive video - thank you for all the time putting this together. I found new natives I'm going to search out (from a friend!) and start growing to add to my cut flower arrangements. Natives + cut flowers = home run!
Thanks for a really informative video. I have phlox Crème brûlée, Maides Blush and Moody blue this year and find them easier to germinate if you can cover with black plastic or a black lid of some sort. One of the varieties I had only 2 seeds germinated, had forgotten to get it pitch black, put a lid on and 3 days later (today, remembered to check when I saw your video 😬) there were 10 more germinated -yay!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and advice. So many, like myself, are new to planting for flowers and pollinators. I have such a desire to have MEADOWS of perennial flowers and all native plants, but its overwhelming- the starting process. I’m about to binge watch all your videos in the next few days. 😄
Could you make a video about seed saving? The more expensive but gorgeous varieties - I would love to be able to save seeds from as many varieties as possible to save money on the next year’s seed order. I do have organza bags of various sizes…maybe that’s all there is to it…but I bet you have much more wisdom you could share about it! 😊😊🌸
I appreciate this video. Every time I shop for flower seeds online, I tend to go overboard and order basically anything that catches my eye. 😂 This gives me a list and has everything that matches for a cohesive colorful bouquet.
I love this video! I tried to have an entirely white garden but someone fell in love with blues and purples too so they suddenly appeared in my gardens. Very thorough and beautiful video!❤ Thank you so very much
Hello from England! Great video thank you, such beautiful flowers. I grew Zinnia’s and Phlox crème brûlée for the first time last year and they were amazing, even when we had the heatwave. I must try Lisianthus next. ❤
So excited to have found your channel. Just love the way you present info. I’m on a new property this year and feeling overwhelmed about starting from scratch. The company I bought my mums from went out of business. Where is everyone buying affordable/wholesale floral mums?
Thank you for this inspirational video! The pictures of the bucketed color-themed flowers took my breath away😍 I’m heading into my cut-flower gardening year 3, and this year’s goal is to create a color palette I like and enjoy growing for the future years. How handy this video comes along! (Not a creative person either, echoing the other comments😂
I absolutely love this video! I tried to start lisianthus this year for the first time. Not one germinated. 😢 I did not try soil blocks though. I will try again next year with soil blocks and see how I do. I’m in Montana zone 4a. I think I will try the rest of the peachy pink color blend though! Love your videos!!!!
Some goldenrod species are more aggressive than others. Solidago canadensis (Canada goldenrod) spreads aggressively by root and seed so it's best to avoid that one. If you want a goldenrod in the garden (they're a keystone species in North America), try a cultivar bred for size like 'Fireworks', 'Little Lemon', 'Golden Fleece', or 'Solar Cascade'. Or if you'd like a non-aggressive, clump forming, straight species, try Solidago gramnifolia (grass leaved goldenrod) or Solidago odora (anise scented goldenrod). Hope this helps - I love my goldenrod. I grow a white one (Solidago bicolor) and one that makes a straight rod flower (Solidago speciosa).
Love your videos! So much helpful information. Do you have recommendations for cut flower plant groupings to grow in pots/containers? I have very limited in-ground space.
We like to support the native pollinators and studies show honeybees create too much competition for them and also spread diseases to native bees 😭 but thank you!
Hi. I just found you. Wonderful videos and information. I love that you are regenerative. I’ll have to study your videos more. I see that you are a 5th generation farmer! I’m wondering if you sell your seeds. You have wonder flowers.
I Love your channel so much! 💖 Regarding wool pellets for soil blocking, is it necessary to use them in pellet form? Is that for convenience or can sheep wool be cut up by hand and used the same way? It means so much to me to learn from people like you - so enthusiastic to share all of these wonderful skills. Thank you! 🐿
I've really wanted to try the Homecoming mum but have hesitated because most mums don't like our heavy clay soil and winter moisture in N MS, Zone 7B, even though I amend with organic matter. The Korean daisy-type mums (Clara Curtis, Sheffield) are the exception; they do very well here. Maybe I'll just put it in a special spot and give it a little pampering. Do you have a list of the flower varieties you mentioned? There are a couple I want to try next spring.
We have heavy clay here on the front range and they don’t mind it, we do mound our beds so that nothing is sitting in excessive moisture which may help!
Thanks. I forgot to add in that we have extremely hot, humid nights in the summer, which doesn't help. All my beds are amended, too; I don't plant anything into straight clay. The single daisy flowered mums do much better than the traditional mum types for some reason.
Do you have any favorite yarrow cultivars that are available as seed? I think Firefly Peach is from Proven Winners and i couldnt find an affordable version.
My phlox didn't germinate. I'm going to mush up the soil blocks and put them in a bag to see what happens I hate to waste my seed dollars and I got mad and threw some out today

I just learned when to harvest the strawflower correctly for different purposes. Now I know why they wilted.
I hope when it gets time to take chrysanthemum cuttings you’ll show us how to propagate! I have several of the varieties you mentioned on order and can’t wait for blooms
Helpful with good advice. I used to grow in Austin, TX and now grow in Greenville, SC. It’s an adjustment to garden where it rains.
Wonderful video! From watching it, I got some ideas for great filler flowers.
I really enjoyed this video. All the plants are just beautiful - some of my favorites.
This was so helpful and fun! Starting my first cut flower garden. I live in Colorado too so appreciate all the drought tolerant native recommendations!
This is brilliant, thank you
Thanks for the details on so many flowers! Your advice is helping me create an awesome backyard for my wife. 😉
LOVE ALL THE COLORS!! So gorgeous
Thanks. I never thought about color pallettes, and the timing with each flower. I just choice the flowers i liked . Im already excited for next season
Great information!
Amazing as usual ❤
Excellent. So appreciative of all this information. Thank you❤
That white palette (the ones I can start now) will be my moon garden that I've always wanted, thx so much for the information. Subbed!
Thank you so much for this video! I love your content so much ❤
You are so informative!! This was an awesome video, thank you for all your time.

Yay! Yes they need darkness for germinating! Glad you remembered to check, haha! I’ve done that too many times 😝

Beautiful arrangement. Thank you so much.
This is such a great video. I’m sure it took a lot of time to prepare. Thank you!
Simply incredible content!!
I loved all these blends! Thank you for putting this together for us 💐
Super cute! Thanks for the information. It made my day!

So interesting.
Great information as always! I have never thought of growing goldenrod because I thought it was a invasive plant? It is quite beautiful!
No, goldenrod is a beautiful and valuable native!! Not invasive! It can be aggressive so give it some space to spread.
Some goldenrod species are more aggressive than others. Solidago canadensis (Canada goldenrod) spreads aggressively by root and seed so it's best to avoid that one. If you want a goldenrod in the garden (they're a keystone species in North America), try a cultivar bred for size like 'Fireworks', 'Little Lemon', 'Golden Fleece', or 'Solar Cascade'.

Love this!! Do you have a list of all of your ingredients?
Love your videos! So much helpful information. Do you have recommendations for cut flower plant groupings to grow in pots/containers? I have very limited in-ground space.
I'm amazed you don't have beehives. You provide the perfect dining table for bees.
We like to support the native pollinators and studies show honeybees create too much competition for them and also spread diseases to native bees 😭 but thank you!
@@Blossomandbranch Oh my! I had no idea.

Hi, great video, I was wondering what you do about picking flowers with bugs in them, is there a trick that you use ?
Love this video. Off subject, do you use Fort Vee compost for blocking?
What kind of marigolds are those? Theyre so cute!

Where do you purchase your northern sea oats? It looks like Johnny's discontinued the seeds :(
Argh! Check American meadows! All else fails message me at briana@blossomandbranchfarm.com and I’ll send you some!
could you make some recommendations on seed suppliers
What is the name of the that beautiful Dusty Miller variety you show at 9:06? Thank you!
Thanks. I forgot to add in that we have extremely hot, humid nights in the summer, which doesn't help. All my beds are amended, too; I don't plant anything into straight clay. The single daisy flowered mums do much better than the traditional mum types for some reason.
Challenging!! Glad you’ve found some that do work for you!!
Do you have any favorite yarrow cultivars that are available as seed? I think Firefly Peach is from Proven Winners and i couldnt find an affordable version.
I’m curious on which color palette sells best for you?
What variety of marigold did you grow?
I'm curious why you said you can't start mums from seed? I bought some seed this year from a reputable seed supplier and had over 90% germination.
Which varieties? We’ve never found a good variety for cuts that grows from seed
Hi I love your channel. I was wondering where do you order your seeds. Can you please give me a few w e b site that you prefer
Typically Johnnys seeds is my go to!
My phlox didn't germinate. I'm going to mush up the soil blocks and put them in a bag to see what happens
I hate to waste my seed dollars and I got mad and threw some out today
What is the name of the spray merigold
Star fire :)
