You sold me on your engaging presence. And openness. Thankful for you. I love light centered yellow sunflower,blue bachelor button, orange calendula with burgundy.
A fireside chat I would watch would definitely be the history of pepper harrow farm - how you guys met, how you found your land, how long you have been on it, how much land it is, how many employees you have, how'd you start your website / store what you started selling first, where you want to go from here, where you got your name . stuff like that. :) Beautiful flowers guys super great job love watching your videos always.
you all probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a tool to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
@Phillip Darwin thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Would like a book of summer season (What to grow for a beautiful bouquets ) and have pictures of different flower combos . I am new and just want to grow an area in my backyard to grow and make bouquets for inside my house and for a neighbor friend. I am 68 so not wanting a farm size garden 😁⚘
I love apricot-pinks with lemonade yellows! Also blue statice with sunflowers. Tansy grows as a weed in our garden (or maybe the last owner planted it) and it is out of controll! and it does stink, lol. thank you guys for the video, it gave me lots of inspiration! 🙂
White & chartreuse/greens bouquet! But I want to buy all your flower bunches! Love the visuals of the flower & plant as your speaking in the video so helpful👏👍👍💐
I love deep burgundy paired with zingy lime. Coral goes great with burgundy too, so pairing up red plume orach, ninebark, verbena hastata or lysimachia beaujolais with Bupleurum, coral lisianthus, coral and lime zinnias, coral fountain amaranth... and maybe a sunflower or rich pink celosia to give it a pop
Thank you for sharing. I look forward to the next season of growing. I found that I need to put down lands fabric if I am going to be growing flowers and not grass. God Bless, Deborah.
Great video! When starting my Cutflower "Farm" one thing I DID NOT want to do was choose WAY too many varieties of flowers & colors, & end up with WAY too many choices. #1- people with more experience, like yall, recommended not to, & #2- I know I would end up spending too much time deciding what to put in a bouquet together 😂 & it would take me entirely too long planning the beds - how many to plant of this, how many to plant of that... I tried to stick with a few colors that I could combine in different ways & they still look good... For example: pink, purple, & yellow flowers & white & green foliage- I can do #1: all 3 colors of flowers, w/ white foliage #2: all 3 colors of flowers w/ green foliage #3: pink & purple flowers w/ white foliage #4 pink & yellow with green foliage... and so on... There are a few things I got in small quantities for some color combos that I really wanted but felt wouldn't be as popular... the one in most excited about is: salmon/coral pink, light/ sky blue & like green!
Love this video! The combos are stunning! I sell flower bouquets at the small grocery store that we own, so this was very helpful! It seems the rainbow type bouquets are the ones that sell first for me. I love to use the Queen Series Zinnias, Antique colored Dahlias, and Terracotta Celosia for a more subtle, romantic bouquet, but the "Loud" bouquets what a lot of our customers are looking for. I also love to put 2-3 Dark Purple or Burgundy Calla Lilies in the middle of a bouquet and surround them with Lisianthus and Dara. You make me anxious for Spring!! Can hardly wait for my Ranunc's and Anemones to bloom (currently in low tunnels)! Also, I have 870+ Tulips in the ground! Thanks for the wonderful content you are sharing! Keep up the great work! Many Happy Blooms!--Sarah from a snowy Lancaster County, PA --Zone 6B
You're both doing an amazing job, keep up the great work and thank you for all the great tips! Really like that you add alot of variety of greens, it really creates a lovely base to the flowers! Hope to see more videos to come as your expertise will draw the subscribers!😁
What about planting cherry Laurel? And using that as an early spring greenery? And a winter greenery in a wreath. Z 7 here. In October and November, I would do some of my customers hand pruning. It would always be hedges of cherry laurels, japonicas, hollies, nandinas, hemlock and so forth. And I would make wreaths with all this left over greenery from hand pruning. And gift one to my landscaping customers that I pruned greenery from. Otherwise it would just go into the mulcher and into the compost pile. People are so used to just fir/spruce/pine type wreaths
Also hand pruning is the best way to go! Yes it's more work but the plants are healthier, your opening it up from the inside letting light in, keeps a plant natural maintained look and it's easier to get a straight line especially with a hedge and I NO KNOBBY ends that make a plant look horrible. Also when people shear, for some reason people start hard on the lower part of the plant and go soft on the top creating that ugly gumball affect on each plant. And it's so uneven on all sides.
Thank you! Love your videos. Learning what to blend in my first year growing cut flowers. I am growing a lot of these but on a very small scale to start. I need Lady’s Mantle and purple Agrostemma! I like a lot of options personally, but go for more subdued pastels in spring (and throw in ammi anytime) those ruffle, lush bouquets of full tulips, perky daffs and juicy hyacinths/lilacs. In fall any dahlia autumn colors w/supporting muted fall colors and lots of texture! I always have loved the blue/gold combo in any flower arrangement too, a happy and positive combination.
The wrapped jars are so cute! What a great idea. I love the smell of tansy. Really enjoyed this video. I can't wait to plant snowball viburnum in the spring. I am doing peach with light colors this year. Always experimenting.
If I want to plant sunflowets in mid April should they be 4 weeks old from inside? I am zone 5b Illinois...hey neighbor! I didnt realize how soon I should have started spring flowers and this is my first year doing market bouquets.
We direct seed our sunflowers outside and only start to consider early seeding if April is really warm. It’s always a gamble to plant before your last frost date.
Oh STUNNING bouquets! 💐 Great tips on what to use as greenery for the bouquets. Thanks for pictures, love seeing those beautiful flowers. What kind of paper do you use to wrap the flowers in?
This was a great video! I loved all your color combos! I do like peach, and apricot colors in a lighter toned bouquet and I didn’t see that! I’m wondering how you guys have success using basil as a cut flower. It seems so many people struggle!
It can be a challenge, but it’s best harvested once it starts to go to seed and early in the AM. We bring it in, let us rest for several hours, then use in bouqs.
Do you start your Goldenrod under lights? None of mine are coming up under lights so I must have done something wrong. Good thing we have wild Goldenrod but the one I tried starting is a dwarf variety that I was hoping would be ready earlier in the season.
You sold me on your engaging presence. And openness. Thankful for you.

@Phillip Darwin it worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D
My little cherry tomato plants were out of control this year. So we used the green tomatoes on the vines as filler. Looked pretty darn good 😃

I love your use of mint and chives. Those must add wonderful scents too. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi !

Great info! Thank you!x❤
I love peach colours with white...f.e. Rudbekia sahara and fewerfew...so elegant...💜
Yes! Pretty color combo!
Color is fun but I also love a good monochromatic bouquet!
I love to use oregono flowers

I really like pale yellow with pale pink flowers with white and pale green filler and peaches and cream schemes
I love your videos and your teamwork as couple 💑. NEW followers here.
Thank you for sharing. I look forward to the next season of growing. I found that I need to put down lands fabric if I am going to be growing flowers and not grass. God Bless, Deborah.
Maybe something with purples and pink that would incorporate lavender...Great video thank you so much
Amazing and so helpful!!! Thank you so much!

Thank you! Gorgeous
What kind of basil’s do you like to use most? And this gets me so excited for spring, not that I wasn’t already 💐🌷🌸🌻
Cinnamon basil 🌿

Thank you for sharing your great ideas with us! Sounds like I need to work in some of the lime colored foliage-I love that look!
Those lime colors make great greenery!
This was so helpful. Your bouquets are really beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Iris blades is what they are called I believe
Just found y'all and your videos are so helpful! What variety of marigold do you grow that gets tall enough for cutting? Do you start by seed? Thanks!

Hi Jan! It’s 18x18” Kraft paper sheets.
Great content! 😊
White and green
One of our faves!
Just found your channel and loving the content

Do you ever use common rue, it is so under used. I just made a bouquet of rue with purple stock, and another with rue and white zinnias.
Will have to plant some!
Love your informative videos also what kind of fertilizers do you use?
Typically just a standard 10-10-10 granular fertilizer
@@PepperHarrow thank you
Did you say you start Lady's Mantel from seed? Do you have a suggested seed source for them?
We bought them as plugs. We got them from a wholesaler because we bought a thousand.
Hi from Rhode Island. What kind of mint do you suggest for greenery and how did you start it? Thank you for your videos 😁
Hi Shari! We use apple mint mostly. We bought a tray of 20 starts and it spread like crazy.
Do you start your Goldenrod under lights?
None of mine are coming up under lights so I must have done something wrong.
Good thing we have wild Goldenrod but the one I tried starting is a dwarf variety that I was hoping would be ready earlier in the season.
We have a large wildflower field filled with it! We've never had to seed it.
What do you think of tubarose,,is it true marymagdalena had a perfume n bath Jesus w tubarose?
Love it!
