Danielle, it's always enjoyable & inspiring to see/hear your clear intent. Gardening often seems chaotic. So much to do, so little time, no? But there's a calming purpose in all you do, taking what can feel overwhelming into the doable. I much admire your focus & success in finding what's workable, doable & most efficient. Very helpful. Thanks!
I totally agree !
Fun fact: Where I live (Germany), Nigella is called "Virgin in the Green".
Thank you for this comprehensive, thoroughly informative and detailed video lesson. I learn so much from you I’m taking notes! You are an absolute delight to watch. Your enthusiasm and depth of knowledge you impart give me hope and incentive to try some fall sowing and improve all
my gardening. Thank you for taking us along- sharing your detailed methods, and daily routines. Loved the surprise cameos of your cat and dog! Also sharing some of your “failures” that keeps it real and I can identify with. I have a lot of those! I’m looking forward to your next notification and following you all the way. Best ever channel! 🌸🌸💕
Everything she said is what I came here to say… You hit on so many important points especially about the Larkspur needing longer germinating time and to continue to water that was very helpful for me… Also not to just think about how you get the flowers earlier but you get the flower stronger and in bigger blooms and the disease resistance it offers… Such good points all around! I’ll be planting my cool flowers today… I’m doing the blue Larkspur, bachelor buttons blue and black nigella.. So excited! One question I have is I have some whiskey barrels and do you think the cool flowers would do OK overwintering in them? I’m in the same zone as you…
😂🤣 Rocky for the best video bomb ever!
Thank you for having videos consistently, such a treat to closely follow your gardening. You have inspired me to embrace my hydrangea love affair and I am currently creating a hydrangea garden, so many hydrangeas to enjoy! 😍. Have a wonderful fall.
I have an addiction to hydrangeas as well, share your love for them.
Danielle your explanations are so easily understood and helpful . Details are very important for s of us!
I’m really looking forward to watching the growth cycle of the flowers. It’s wonderful. Thanks for doing this. Love your videos!
What a wonderful and calming/relaxing video, with natural sounds, and no silly background music. And you are so real! Your garden is real, not a fake show garden like other youtubers gardens.. You don't run around like a squirrel planting endlessly commercial flowers all day. Thats what I love about your channel. I wish you stay always this way, with your growing success, never change.
Perennial Campanula seeds benefit from a period of cold moist stratification. The stratification process will help the seeds to germinate more easily. If they germinate difficult perhaps you can try to do it like the tip my father once got from an old flower gardener for petunia. Don't put any soil on top but just lightly press in the seeds with a small block of wood or so.
Thank you for all your help !!
We are 7b here in North Carolina so I will take your great inspiration and plan for some cool flower planting over the next few weeks. Thank you for sharing your successes and failures in the garden. We are always learning from each other 😊
I stopped in to Roher's last year for the first time. Ever since then I've been ordering from their online store since we're in Maryland.
You are awesome. One of my favorite gardeners on you tube. I'm in zone 7 DE. Thanks for sharing.
Fabulous tutorial. I'm in (USDA zone 8b) the UK, West Midlands region, but still plenty of useful and interesting information. thank you
Wonderful advice Danielle!! Trying it today!
What a wonderful learning experience Danielle! Thanks so much!
Welp! Going out to seed my cool flowers this weekend! Thanks for the push ☺️
Your cat trying to get a drink out of your watering can was absolutely hilarious.
You were just talking away and I was so distracted, and laughing so hard, I had to rewind it, twice, to catch what you were saying. 😆😆🥰🥰
So excited. I in Michigan are fallowing right along with your plantings 💜
I loved Rocky's antics here!!
Thanks Danielle for the recommendation about Rohrers, I am hooked!!!!
Love the cool flower seeds videos. TY Danielle
Thanks for the list Danielle! I'm looking them up now! Always a pleasure watching your videos. Listening to you teach is so relaxing!
Thanks Danielle! This is exactly what I was waiting for. Only thing is all my beds have a thick layer of mulch so I'll have move it away to plant the seeds. Hope it works 🙏
Good morning, Danielle! Enjoying your video on cool succession flowers! 🌻🌻🌻
Mulching between rows is such a great idea - I'll be trying it this fall.
Great explanation of fall planted Hardy annuals thanks Danielle❤
You have such great helpers! Love Rocky and Gracie. Thank you for showing us your hardy annual planting. I may try love in a mist in the garden.
Thanks for this very helpful video, Danielle!
Thank you so much for allowing us time to take notes. I am going to try sewing cool weather plants for the first time. Lots of great pointers in this video.
Awesome Danielle! Thank you for this video. I learned a lot about your method of direct sowing vs growing under grow lights. I am delighted and excited about direct sowing my nigellas and corn flowers. Thank you!
Great tip with putting down mulch in between👍🏾
That was a very thorough explanation of sowing cool flowers thanks for sharing that.
This was very helpful for a first time gardener. Thank you!
As usual your timing is perfect! I have Nigella seeds and going to give it a try in CT zone 6 b. You're the best!
Fun! Thanks for the info and inspiration!
Awesome video! I only have been successful with campanula wintersowing. They finally bloomed this year - so beautiful!
Thank you so much for explaining everything so clearly. I live in zone 6 PA too! I am going to try direct sowing this week. Thank you again for showing me how and what to do!
I am in zone 6b, too and your channel is so helpful! Thanks for all the ideas and tips to make next year's Garden beautiful
Grace checking in with a kiss was precious! So sweet.
Thank you sooo much. Very informative. I do leave my nigella because they are so wonderful and they do pop up all over in spring.
I look forward to seeing all the fruit of your planning, planting and labor of love, spring 2023.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with direct sowing. I actually was just trying to figure out the best way to suppress the weed seeds, you have had a wonderful impact on my flower garden journey 😊
Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Also in southern part of PA.
I finally found how to contact you! You are a darling! I feel your sweet spirit as you share what's in your heart in your garden. I believe we are kindred spirits. I'm very drawn to my garden for peace and comfort, especially during times of great sadness and loneliness. And of course to celebrate my joys too. It's my therapy. I'm a nurse. My 5 yr old patient died on Mother's Day. I planted a cottage garden to get through my grief. It has been very fulfilling and sustaining. Thank you for sharing who you are and for teaching me about Cool Flowers. Keep up your great work and don't ever stop making those videos. God bless you and your love for His creations.
Hi Danielle. I will be sowing/transplanting my cool flowers in a few weeks. (South GA 8b). Thank you so much for your detailed videos. They’ve inspired me to grow flowers that I never thought I could grow here due to our short spring. The fall planting is perfect for having early blooms before it’s so hot here.
Wow, perfect video! thank you
thank you so much.. I've been so nervous about this, my first cool flower season ..
I took notes.. I found my seeds.. and I'm on my way outside!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate you!
Thank you Danielle 🌺💚🙃
Such great tips!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. This was a really helpful video.
Love your videos so very much! I love learning about cool flowers even if I can't plant them all-wish I were younger and had better knees. Thanks so much for your articulate, clear, greatly paced, and entertaining videos.
Hi, Danielle. Thank you so much for your videos, they are a great help. I have collected a ton of buplerum seeds and would be happy to send you a big packet. I grow them every year, mostly by just letting them self sow.
Thank you so much for this video! I was inspired to plant seeds for the first time.
I direct sowed some cool season seeds following your tips and today I saw a few seedlings. Hopefully, I manage to keep them alive.
Thanks for this list…I am moving to a new home and will be establishing new garden spaces in a new gardening zone. This list will be invaluable ❤
Great explanation of fall planted Hardy annuals, you have encouraged me to sow seeds out side.. thanks Danielle❤
Thanks for the on screen list! I had no idea about the Dara being cool weather and that explains a lot. 🤣
Thank you so much for the seed resource!
Hello my friend. This is more than just a video, you put love and passion into it. Good job! Thanks for sharing this video! Always believe in yourself and keep doing what you love, good luck!
This has been the most needed educational information. I really enjoy your videos and your beautiful garden no matter what. However, I just enjoyed watching you doing it with us. Thank you
This is our first year attempting cool flowers, we appreciate all of the advice that you share.
Thank you for your content. I’ve learned so much from you, and keep up the great work! 💖
I wish we lived in a better zone! You’re so lucky! I enjoy watching what you do!
Thank you for the information on cool weather planting and the book referral. I’ll be out planting seeds this afternoon. We’re also in south central PA. Your garden rooms have been an inspiration to our gardens. Even hubby has gotten hooked on gardening. He’s just as dangerous as me in a garden center now.
Thanks for the cool information....see you on the next one...be bless 🙏
I really love this video,I learned so much that you can direct seeding for cool weather flower very excited tot try it thanks for sharing , I live 30 mins away from Philly in a suburban area I have 2 acres of land , even though I’ve been gardening for years now I feel like I’m still learning mannn I’m glad I subribes
I really appreciate your advice on cool flowers. It’s given me confidence and excitement to try a new set of flower in Zone 8b in south Texas. Summer gardening is so hard here so I’m looking forward to other options.
Houston z9a here, and I'm also experimenting by expanding my cool flowers this year.
Oh geez Planted all these last week after taking notes on your last cool flower video, but I missed the tip about Larkspur seeds in the freezer, so we shall see on that one. I'm in 6B Western NY. Thanks for all your knowledge you share! Also I planted Campula last year > I started them indoors mid February. and put under row covers very early Spring. They did great. This was my first year on a proper cut garden bed.
Thank you for the video, Danielle! Regarding campanula, I had success winter sowing it in jugs. I don't think I've heard you ever mentioning winter sowing anything but thought I'd mention it. I'll be direct sowing nigella, dara and orlaya tomorrow. Inside I started foxglove, rudbeckia, yarrow and orlaya but I wasn't sure about a hardening off process with these and your video answered this. I'll start that process tomorrow as well and then get them in the ground in about a week.
I'm in zone 7b and now plan on sowing bachelor buttons and Nigella. Thank you so much for this informative video. 😍
Great to watch your video so much to learn! thank you!
Thank you for the list of what can be sown. Very helpful info. Nice video. 😃
Rocky is so cute!
I used the wintersowing method this year for campanula and it worked great!
Thank you! Did you cover the seed or surface sow?
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm Hi Danielle! I sowed the seeds and covered them lightly with vermiculite in milk jugs in the winter and left them outside all winter and they germinated so well and I had huge plants growing out of the milk jug!
I love your videos. I learned so much with them. I will like to learn about collecting rain water and benefits. You explain everything so easy. 😊🌺🌸🌼
Thank you for always sharing your knowledge 💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
I decided to try campanula this year too, and I did not get very good germination either! I've been wondering because I got awesome germination on some others I've started inside. Made me feel a little better knowing I'm not the only one. I've started yarrow, campanula, and foxgloves inside. I plan to direct seed bachelors buttons, nigella, orlaya, and larkspur this week!
And thank you so much for these videos on cool flowers. I bought the book from your recommendation and read it, but it is also nice to see how you put it into action. Love you and your videos ❤️
Your content is always "must see TV", I am never not learning! Foxy Foxgloves are doing well under grow lights...almost ready to move them outside. Will try some direct sowing of orlaya, dara and larkspur in my community garden. Thank you!!
Thanks for mentioning Lisa Ziegler…will check her out
Your explanation of cold season planting was just super! Though I already let a few of those mentioned annuals go to seed, Im going to try the others you listed. Im also in zone 6b. Thank you kindly!
Thanks so much, always great information. I have a flat of some cool flowers started inside they need a bit more time before going outside and will be direct seeding larkspur, bachelor buttons and possibly some Lupine as well as soon as we get cooler weather. I planted some larkspur last year and didn't put them in the freezer and they all came up so maybe that can work for some of us.
I have found growing cool flowers for only 2 years now that they do well started in milk jugs here in zone 5. I love to do seeds that way. I get carried away doing up to 30 to 50 jugs. Then I have to find room to plant everything!! But since Im a small cut flower grower, I only need a small amount of each kind. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you
Thank you for enlightening me with your explanation of the difference of a Cool Flower for cutting vs. it just being a perennial. I always struggled to get the concept, I just figured why wouldnt they call it a perennial if it will come back in Spring after overwintering outside in my zone!
Time to sow cool flowers! I'm moving to South Carolina at the end of October and hope it's not too late to get at least some cool flowers in the ground. I'm also buying a set up to start seeds indoors under lights. Can't wait!
Danielle - I planted all my seedlings that I started inside this past weekend. I am probably late getting them in the ground. I wanted to tell you how surprised I was when I hardened off the seedlings. I had good germination inside but not 100%. Once the trays were placed outside and received the natural light & temperatures I had the remaining seeds sprout. I know this might seem silly but this got me so excited realizing I might have success with all my cool flowers that I direct sowed and of course my seedlings. I am so happy to have discovered your channel and all the valuable information on cool flowers.
I am LOVING your cool flower videos! Bought the Cool FLowers Book and love that too! Interesting you are so wet there in Pennsylvania? I am in Western Oregon so WET is our name also. So if you can grow this stuff I can too--in 8b, and maybe a few more--going to try this this fall; ---so excited! Thank you!
Rohrer is the name of the seed company in Pa. I couldn't quite hear it and transcript spelled it ror's. Thought this info might help someone. This channel is so helpful to me. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you sooo much for doing a cool flower direct sowing video! Have been intrigued by the idea of cool flowers after watching your channel, but transplanting cool flowers is a bit too much work for me at this time of year, and wasn’t confident enough to direct sow these flowers in fall. Going to sow Orlaya next week😊 hopefully the stem length would be more workable than direct sown at spring
Good morning Danielle. Excellent video from a hard working and self sufficient woman living off the grid. Thanks for sharing a tour of your garden. My favorite method of maintaining a sustainable pantry and garden and stockpiling items long term for the whole family is what I consider to be the most practical, utilizing every type of food storage methods and technology available, both old and new. . Except for the fruits and vegetables that get canned, I keep perishable items like meat, poultry, fish, fruit, vegetables and dairy products in the refrigerator on a short term basis until I'm ready to use them for a big family meal - and for even longer term sustainable storage, a large separate freezer, which can store a half side of beef with plenty of room left over for homemade ice cream etc. . I'm considering upgrading to a walk-in freezer at some point.in the near future, if my plans to open a bed and breakfast come to fruition. Sometimes, however a nice round of cheese can do well for quite awhile on a pantry shelf at room temperature - and doesn't mind even if it has to stand there alone. Store bought canned goods get shelves.in the large pantry closet - several for canned meat like corned beef hash, spam and sandwich spread and another for canned vegetables Bread, rolls, grains, homemade pasta, cereals and the like are stored in special humidity controlled bins I order from Amazon Prime - which usually get delivered to my doorstep about an hour after I order them. . Stuff from the family garden and orchard, like onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, cauliflower, cucumber, pumpkins, carrots, corn celery,, potatoes and yams, cherries, blueberries and strawberries get canned in Mason Jars and stored in the cool, root cellar of this wonderful rambling former farmhouse (circa 1867) I share with my extended blended family and several rambunctious dogs raised on table scraps from the some of the finest food from a plethora of sources both commercial and home based. . There's even a special separate "summer kitchen" which I converted to store butter and ice cream churns, pots, pans, utensils, extra storage containers, foil, bags, cutlery, and other meal related accoutrement. Out back in the woods, just beyond the big pile of wood I maintain all year, (for use in an antique woodstove I keep on hand, in case the power goes out) there's even an old rusting vintage still where my great grandfather made some of the finest corn whiskey for miles. Next to it is the rusting hulk of the Ford Model A he used to transport that powerful hootch by the light of the moon on soft summer nights to his eager customers in a tri-county area. Further into this verdant forest of mostly sycamore, oak, pine and scrub, runs a cool stream into which I occasionally cast a rod or net to catch some Brook Trout, Bluntnose Shiners, or whatever takes the bait (just earthworms for the most part). And yes, hunting season means wild turkey, deer, and even an occasional wild boar. Next week, I'm planning on filing for a permit to 3-D print a smokehouse in order to be able to create gourmet artisan handcrafted, beef, bacon, turkey, and beef stick jerky, which interested local merchants can private label for other people to share with their families and their family dogs. Unfortunately, I had to break the bad news to my free range hens today that due to expected egg shortages regretfully numbered are their days of laying a couple of eggs and then basically taking the rest of the day off with ranging privileges' within the parameters of a few very nice rural acres - parts of which are rich with fat grubworms. There's even a short dirt road between the main barn and the farmhouse which they're free to cross to get to the other side as often as they'd like. My rooster Ben overheard me and he ain't too happy either, knowing full well that due to oncoming egg shortages, he'll be "workin' overtime to make sure there's plenty of eggs for me and the family.😎😎🌹🌹🌻🌻
I had great success with winter sowing larkspur this year in milk cartons this year but I have a small area to plant and use a lot of containers
I fall sowed larkspur for the first time this year. I had put the seed in the fridge in a wet paper towel folded in a ziploc, expecting to plant it a few weeks later in MA. The weather got crazy hot, and I waiting until the days were no longer 80F to plant it, so when I opened the ziploc, the bag was a mass of sprouts! So I figured I would go ahead and try to plant them anyhow, biggest issue was teasing all the sprouts apart. But fantastic quick germination that way and they are doing great about 10 days later in 2 different sites I'm testing out. So next year, I'll do that again, just a bit later in case its hot late into the season again
Being from the tropics so most of these flowers are unfamiliar to me thus I'm looking forward to see this flower bed when they're in full bloom.
Thanks, love your cat😅
I'm in zone 3. I can throw some seeds down of those listed but in very late fall or very early spring. Then if they sprout they grow into very healthy plants
I couldn’t pay attention to what your were saying because I was watching Rocky.🤣
Hi Danielle. Maybe a cold stratification for the campanula? I know that was my problem with Orlaya. Good luck, you always have beautiful things going on in the garden. Can't wait to see what things look like in the Spring!
Danielle, love watching your videos, and Official Garden Kitty Rocky!
I am so interested in jug technique folks are commenting about several times now. Could you find out what they do and talk about it on an upcoming video? I bet it might be something I can do in my zone 5b.
Thank you Danielle for sharing the name of the company you buy your flower seeds 🙏🙏I’ll be buying mine from them next year because I barely found found this company and I already spend so much for seeds this year
I love cool flowers! You and Lisa Ziegler have shared such good information for success. Not a cool flower, but do you have any tips for growing verbena bonensiaris? I've failed and failed! Thanks!
Try winter sowing in milk jugs.
Thank you so very much for all your videos! Really enjoy them! Do you have any suggestions on the cool flowers for zone 10?
I know Nigella as “Persian Jewels”, they’ve naturalized all around yard, and out into the world.
