    You picked a lovely array of blooms! I'd be interested in a t shirt. I'd prefer v neck...you could always do what roots and refuge does with their merch, they take pre orders for a month. I'm in US so I guess it will depend on shipping costs as well.

    Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge! I love your new branding and the color palette you have chosen. I'm in the US and would totally be interested in purchasing some of your merchandise! I love the color of your t-shirt but would prefer the logo on the front only. I was curious if you ever have a problem with your paper getting wet after you put them in the buckets? Seems like without fail this always happens to mine...even when I have the water down low. Keep up the good work and I always am looking forward to your next video!

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому

      Hi Tracey, my paper is mildly waterproof, it has a sheen to it, I’ve used Kraft paper that isn’t waterproof before and I’ve had the same problems you describe, the water soaks up into it. Maybe you ought to look out for some different paper?

  • @itsmewende
    @itsmewende 2 роки тому

    Gorgeous collection of flowers, sounds like a very reasonable price to me, hope she shared with you. Really like the new font, are you planning to offer a few colors for your clothing items.? And I see other channels have their merch along the bottom of the info for the video. Hope you have a nice week ahead.

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому

      Hi Wende, yes I will hopefully have a range of colours available. I will keep you all updated on the progress of it 😁

    When you’re cutting buckets of flowers for a bride to make her own bouquets how do you figure the cost? Again beautiful buckets of flowers!

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому +2

      They’re just charged at one price, £65 for 65 stems, £1 a stem on average and there’s a mix of all sorts in the bucket 😊

    Thankyou Sarah. This has cheered me up. I find your videos both therapeutic (I suffer from PTSD) and really informative (I am growing flowers for my daughters wedding in September).
    My autumn sown Ammi majus and Larkspurs are madly flowering now. I have cut the flowers to try and keep them producing. Some of the plants just died after. Do you have any advice about how to encourage plants esp Ammi to keep going until Autumn?
    Also would love to know...how did you get on with your direct sown bed!?
    Thankyou for sharing with us ")

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому

      Hi Tracey, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Usually annuals like ammi and larkspur will only produce for about 6 weeks at a time, did you sow more in spring or early this summer for a succession of flowers? I will let you know on my farm tour video coming soon 😁

  • @christinaAmell
    @christinaAmell 2 роки тому

    Love watching your videos! Thank you for sharing. I was wondering how you secure your landscape fabric early in the season before the plants grow up and assist in keeping it in place? My flower field is a very open area and I’ve been struggling to keep it secure. If you ever end up being able to send merch to the US, let us know! I’m sure there are quite a few of us that are interested! Thank you!

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Christina, I use 6 inch ground staples, because I have walked on my paths a lot over the course of the last few years they are firm enough to hold the staples in. I don’t seem to get any problems with the weed membrane blowing off. I will keep you updated re. The merch!

    • @christinaAmell
      @christinaAmell 2 роки тому

      @@bloomandgray Thanks! I just received a box of 6in staples and was really hoping that would be the thing to work. It was very defeating seeing the fabric I had laid down blowing around in the wind. Fingers crossed this will be the solution. Have a great day!

  • @jessicafrank800

    I am an aspiring flower farmer in the Northwest portion of the US just north of Seattle and I have so much anxiety around providing wedding flowers, although I knew they would be so profitable. Then I came across your channel and have been binge watching your videos! Thank you so much for making them! The last video I watched was your hour long history video! It was so helpful and I loved that you transitioned into just doing DIY wedding flower buckets (brilliant!) I never thought of that! So much less stressful! This video was awesome as well! I only have one question? When the bride come to pick up the flowers how do you keep them in water for the transition? As in do they borrow your buckets or do you inform them to bring their own?

    • @bloomandgray
      @bloomandgray  2 роки тому +2

      Hey Jess, glad you enjoy the videos! I actually include the buckets, some bring them back, some don’t, however I have been thinking about this lately as I seem to be constantly running short on buckets! I’m thinking of introducing a refundable bucket deposit to encourage couples to return the buckets to me.

    Hey Sarah I’ve just come across this video. Just wondered if you’ve gotten an option to ship to the States. Also do you have a beanie or scull cap for the winter. Not sure what you call them there in the U.K.
