    Northlawn Flower Farm has a video about establishing a cut flower garden in the landscape (not grown in rows). She also just put out a new video explaining her journey of how she came to incorporate a cut flower garden into the landscape rather than use all her space to grow in rows. It's a very personal story to her. She seems very sweet.

    Hi!! Marking you plants high!
    Keep a hole puncher to punch a hole in the plastic tab. Use 12 gauge 6ft hanger wires (50-pack). This wire is at Home Depot used to hang drop ceilings ($17.78). Can be cut in half for a hundred. Bend the top like a shepard hook then crimp it down after you put the label on it. Thank you so much for all the info!!😁

    Hello Laura,
    Have you ever thought about selling subscription boxes each month?
    They can contain the seeds you're starting that month in 3 different categories planters, cut flowers and edible garden seeds.
    It's a great way for you to make a profit and would allow for us super fans who watch the show to be able to follow along with seed starting, harvesting and arrangements. Which ultimately gives your videos more views and subscribers. It would also have us name dropping you when people ask where we got our flowers or arrangements. In turn growing garden answers.
    Me and my daughters watch your content all the time and all 3 of us are left saying how much we want those exact same items. Then husband is miserable as we drag him around to find everything needed putting me 2-4 weeks behind on starting whatever it is we saw in your videos. I know my family would absolutely love it if you had subscription boxes for the flowers you start from seed in your videos! Especially, to make planters and cut arrangements with. It would be so cool to follow along while watching with my little girls. Please consider it! Love your channel ❤

    Peonies which don’t last long, can be harvested when the buds feel like a marshmallow and stored dry in the fridge for some time. Since the flowers can easily be destroyed by weather events this is a great way to extend the enjoyment. I heard this from a pro on a podcast, and plan to try it this spring for our gorgeous ‘Festiva Maxima’ blooms 🤞

    Thank you for inspiring me with all things in the plant world! In the most recent "recap video" you spoke about where you will be placing future walking paths. It reminded me of my college days when new buildings were added....they 'waited' to install sidewalks to see where students created natural paths and later sidewalks were added based on most commonly used paths. Just a thought. However, creating them from the get-go is an exciting way to develop meandering paths which lead the strolling gardener to interesting views is also fun. PS I LOVE the pallet walkway by the chicken coop and all the 'garden rooms' at your parents' house. So many options! Have fun! Can't wait to meet your sweet baby girl! God bless!

    Hi Laura. Love your gardening videos. I have been watching for a long time now and have seen you say that you need to "up your labeling game". I live in SW Washington and as you know we basically live in the rain. What I use to label my plants is wooden paint stirrers. First I seal the wood with a white paint. Then label with a paint pen......don't use Sharpies ( They have their place but the garden isn't one). The paint pen won't bleed and will surely be almost like the day you made it by the end of the season. I have watched so many of your videos where you label with a sharpie and I'm yelling at my computer "Use a Paint Pen!!!!......It changes everything". I hope you get this. It makes a tremendous difference. Love your videos. Look forward to seeing you use that paint pen. Keep on gardening.

  • @forexercises
    @forexercises 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    To keep the drought tolerant flowers in with you other flowers... use only one or two rows of drip tape instead of the three and seed the flowers slightly more away from the tape. That way you can have all your flowers together, and on the same water system, but the flowers that want less water get less by virtue of simply having less emitters near them.

You always want to maximize your space by growing varieties that multi-branch that way you’re getting more blooms vs ones that one give you one stem. 🥰

    For your problem with plant name tags: Drill a hole in those little plastic tags, which are reusable. Then make an open loop on a piece of strong stiff wire that's about 18" long. Thread the white plastic tag onto that loop and then insert the wire into the ground. Dry Cleaners coat hangers work (you pull it so the hook part is at the top, bend it down a bit, add the tag and stick the other end in the ground), but you might have something else available. I enjoy your videos. Have a happy, healthy, EASY delivery!

    This has nothing to do with this video but I rewatched the May garden tour the other day and heard you talk about round stepping stones. I looked everywhere last summer for a Zen garden I was putting in. They can't be found! I have been checking Facebook Marketplace for them and I finally found them. 25 for $50. They were 3 hours away but my sister lived near where they were. But I found them!

    I live next door to my community park. They have huge piles of wood chips from ground up Christmas trees that they give away for free to members of the community. I use the wood chips to mulch the footpath between my garden rows. Worked great last year.

    This was very educational, Laura! Thank you. Inspired by you, I'm growing flowers from seed now, and it's much fun! And so gratifying, as you say. I'm going to try growing from seed some of the flowers you recommend in this video.

    I see Flower Hill Farm , Florette and North Lawn Flower Farm mentioned but also check out You Can’t Eat the Grass on TH-cam. They grow to sell flowers and vegetables.

    My first ever seed grown cosmos did great from my beginner Winter Sowing last year and bloomed all season, spring to frost. Loved them so much, planting more varieties this year. One of our favorite great thriller fillers is tall verbena (Verbena bonariensis.) Grows easily, tall and airy and looks great everywhere. Self seeds, but easy to remove or relocate. Going to mix in big containers with cosmos this year for a season long impact at a path entrance.

    i planted a wildflower mix in the summer of 2020, and while most didn’t grow because i left for vacation right after sowing them, the runoff from the lawn kept some alive. i have bachelors buttons and blanket flowers now and they’re doing great!! some of them are 3 feet tall! nothing else in the mix grew but i plan to plant more flowers in spring because i hate the maintenance and look of the grass.

    I would LOVE a Q & A session on citrus once you get that new greenhouse! I’m less than a year into a lemon tree and even though I’ve watched your lemon tree video (like 100 times) feel like I’m missing something!

    To address the question about the flowers not looking good, it's also very important to get your flower seeds and bulbs etc. from reliable sources. Because when I first started gardening, I thought that I could just pick up plants, bulbs and seeds from local box stores and they would be great, but I quickly learned that not all plants, bulbs and seeds are created equal. When I started buying from Johnny's, and everything I planted looked so good, that's when told myself that I wouldn't waste time and be frustrated by the cheap seeds from the store anymore! Spend a little bit more in the beginning, but it'll be worth it when you have the beautiful plants you expect to have! There are more companies besides Johnny's that are reliable, but I've always had success with their seeds.

    Thank you sooo much for sharing all your information and knowledge. I grew cosmos from seed last year and i was so happy to see the results. I had alot of seeds that have been saved year after year so i know thebees and butterflies are going to be well fed. I usually save about 20-30 monarchs every summer so its nice to have other flowers besides milkweed
