You could write the book about how to make PERFECT flower farmer videos. Beautiful flowers, harvesting, tell what you're using, arranging in your lovely studio, minimal chatter, peaceful music. EXCELLENT. I wish all flower farmer youtubers would watch this and learn how it's done right! Congratulations on your success! You deserve it! ❤ Linda in Canada 🇨🇦
Oh my goodness……thank you!!! 🌻 You are too kind!!!
I pay $35 for a wrapped bouquet! Maybe go up a little, they are gorgeous and so much work and LOCAL!
That's awesome! Congrats on selling out! Those jelly jars were so cute. I like the look of them so much better than the mason jars. I'm really new at growing flowers but I found arranging the small, short arrangements to be much more fun than the bigger ones. I love having something small sitting on windowsills or on my desk.
Yes aren’t they fun?!?!
Yes I enjoy this video I can't tell how many times I've watch it 😅. Keep going, thanks for sharing
Thanks!!!!
Your booth was absolutely gorgeous! We get a lot of compliments at market saying our booth is the best looking one there- I’m sure you get the same! We’ll done!! 🙌🏼👏🏼 So happy to see your flower business thriving and more locally grown blooms getting out there. 😊
Thank you so much! Locally grown is the best!
The bouquets all looked beautiful! Congratulations on selling out!! I can’t wait to see what next year brings!! 😊
Thank you! Double the flowers next year!

Omgsh! Looking at all those empty jars would have totally overwhelmed me! I so appreciate your organization and planning tips! I’m so happy for your success at the big market! Your booth and arrangements were lovely!! Looking forward to seeing what you’ll be planting (and not planting) next season!
Thank you! And yes - stay tuned for 2022 planning videos!
Gorgeous flowers ,, all home grown ,, well done 👏👏👏
Thanks!! 🌻🌻
I did jars in my first year, by the end of the season I had learnt to put filler, usually fragrant lemon basil, in the far first, then I could use it to 'hold up' all the focal flowers. The green also provides a great contrast to the flowers.
Congratulations!
Thanks!
So happy for you and having a great show
Thanks! It was great!
Wonderful! So happy for you! I love those 12 ounce jelly jars! I've used them, too!
Thanks! They are the perfect size!
Congratulations on your market. It makes all the time and effort worth while.
Thank you!!
Congratulations!! You did an amazing job and thank you for sharing your videos with us. Love the arrangements! ❤️
Thank you so much!
Congratulations! How exciting. Thanks for bringing us on your journey.
Thank you!!
I've seen mini pumpkins used as a vessel for mini flower arrangements. I bet that would be a good seller too.
Oh good idea!
Yay!!! I am so happy your market was a success. Your bouquets were beautiful and your booth was stunning. Wishing you continued success!!!!
Thank you! I can’t wait to do it again!
Looks absolutely gorgeous!!!
Thanks!!!
I loved these 2 videos! Your hard work really showed in your presentation, congrats on selling out!
Thank you! 🌻
Girl you are the best that is awesome work I can see that you’re really into it. I am hoping to get into it. I live in Pennsylvania, the Pocono mountains, and you have inspired me. 👏👏👏
Aww thanks!
Awesome, C!! So glad you had a successful season. All your hard work paid off. Your flowers are beautiful and you presented them in your videos so well. Fun to watch! 💕
Thanks Linda! It’s been a lot of fun!!!
I love your market set up. You have a beautiful table!
Thank you! Hoping to amp it up even more for this year!
Congrats on your success! The booth looked incredible!
Thanks!!
Congratulations on a very successful market! Your flowers and booth looked amazing! Great job!
Thanks!
Love, love, loved part one and two. You are giving me such great information and an inside peek as to all that goes into selling and growing cut flowers. Thank you! 🌻
Glad you liked it! Was my favorite video of the year to make
So I'm late to the show; just found you and subscribed. There should be a LOVE button! I really enjoyed watching the whole process. Everything turned out so beautiful! I love those jars and the flowers you chose! Thank you for sharing this with us! Madeline from PA. Now off to see more videos!!
Welcome aboard!
Love the jelly jars. I’m planning to plant a cut garden on a much smaller scale with the plan to give away most of the flowers. The jelly jars would be perfect. Your video was so helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Enjoy your new garden!!
Congratulations on a great season! I’ve enjoyed watching your progress and so happy that you had such success!
Thank you! 🌻
I gave away free flowers last year. I feel very motivated to try a market after seeing your process! Amazing!!!
That’s awesome! I hope you have a great season!
Congratulations on selling out so quickly! Your jelly jars were really pretty! Thank for sharing. :)
Thank you!

Thanks! I’m doing the same market this year in a couple weeks!
@@SunshineFlora that sounds good.looking forward to watch ur video
Your stand was so cute 😁 Congrats on selling out !!! Yes, I have to agree that jelly jar is perfect size to transport in cupholder for practicality( good thinking ) 😉
I actually grew a Kelvin Floodlight last summer and it got massive, almost to big for arrangements, yet a fun conversation flower 😄
Thanks! And yes - Kelvin Floodlight - love it!!! I have 6 blooms about ready to open on one plant right now!
Absolutely darling!!
Thank you!
Congratulations! I love your flower arrangements.. keep it up! GOD bless you 😇
Thank you!
Super exciting for you 😍🙏 I absolutely LOVED all your arrangements! Well done and happy next season too 💐😃🌸💮🏵️
Thank you!!!
Wow - what a blast! It clearly turned out better than you'd hoped which must have been really fabulous. Looking forward to seeing how you plan for next year's season - I'm sure you'll be using every square inch of your garden! Hooray!
Thank you!!! Yes - it was a fantastic day!
Congratulations!!! It was a huge success. You deserve every bit of that success. All the planning and preparing paid off, didn't it? Can't wait for your planning next year's garden videos.
Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much!!
You’re fantastic at editing and a great flower grower! ✨
Thank you!!!
Congratulations! You did a brilliant job! Both you and your videos have inspired me so much this year as I prepare my first cutting garden here in NZ. I am just amazed at what you've managed to achieve in a relatively small space. I'm looking forward to taking the journey with you next season. Thanks so much for taking the time to share with us. PS: I'm excited because the first planting of my dahlias is sending up shoots. :)
Thank you and best of luck to you!! And exciting about your dahlias - it’s so fun so see them grow especially once they start getting buds!
Beautiful flowers Well done.
Thank you!
I love following your journey. It seems you’ve been anxious/excited about this market for a while so it was so fun to see your great sales results! Congratulations! The jelly jars were so adorable with your selected flower combos. It really is not easy putting together that many. It’s a great way to use shorter stems too! Looking forward to more videos!
Thank you!!! And yes - those jelly jars are perfect for shorter stems! I love being able to use those
Your booth and flowers look great! Thanks for the inspiration. I made some mason jar bouquets earlier this summer for the tables at our family restaurant and everyone loved them. I love the ribbon detail you added to the jars. I may have to try that. I’m not selling any flowers this year but will be starting my flower farm from scratch next year. How big is your garden space? It looks like it’s in an urban setting but you’ve managed to put out quite a lot of flowers in such a small space. Congrats on selling out at the market! I’ve really enjoyed watching your journey this year.
Thank you! My space is roughly 30x50, so pretty small but I pack a lot in!
Love your videos. I'm in a similar zone so it's cool to see what's growing for you when. Definitely will be doing more mid-summer successions so I can be harvesting this much in the early fall!
Thanks for watching!
I found it!!! 🎉
Lovely video thanks for all the great sharing gorgeous flowers! What are the drawstring net bags for??
Keeps the bugs off
Wait, alfalfa as a filler? That's brilliant! How does it hold up?
I'm in Northern Illinois and I'm SURE I can get permission to cut alfalfa from our hay supplier!
It lasted great for me when the stems were woody!
Your flowers look gorgeous! 😍 Do you have any tip on prolonging dahlia's vase life? Are you adding any floral preservative to the water?
I started using Floralife with my flowers the end of this season, but used it enough to really see how it helps, but it should hydrate them better to last longer!
New flower farmer here. Great idea with the jelly jars. Where did you get them? I know people use Mason jars too. Next year I'm going to try and sell flowers and I know it's a lot of work. Great job!
I ordered them in sets of 20 from Amazon
@@SunshineFlora thank you! Very cute idea!👍🏻
It all looks GREAT! How did you store your jar bouquets overnight?
Thanks! I just kept them in my air conditioned studio - it was set to about 65. Then I took them to the market in the morning
Where do you get your jelly jars? And do you set up the arrangement so that it’s 360 pretty or front to back? I did a small roadside stand this year for the first time and have been using mason jars and really struggle with the whole making of the arrangements. The ones I think will definitely sell don’t sell and the ones that I don’t like sell. Totally unpredictable! Your stand looked awesome!!
I just got the jars off Amazon and designed them to face front mostly although went all the way around!
This looks amazing congratulations on your sales!!! Thank you for showing us your stand and giving us ideas. I'm curious, with the jars set up like that, was there any issues with wind and some blowing over??
No issues with them blowing over. They were 3/4 full of water - the wind came up that day but I was sold out by that time!
How do you keep the wrapped flowers fresh looking?
Hi from the UK again. I bought some of the glue dots you recommended and I am going to practice over the next few weeks decorating the jam jars as all this is new to me, including the growing of the flowers. Another question I have is do you or know another channel where there is a list what the flowers all are ie which are focal, filler, accent or foliage (I guess that’s obvious really) as I struggle to determine these. Is it all down to personal preference or is there an actual directory/list as I think this would be really useful for a beginner like me. Thank you for your help. 🙏🌻🌱
Good question! I will try to explain that in one of my video!
@@SunshineFlora Thank you so much that would be amazing. I’ve personally only got a smallish garden but my daughter has allowed me the use of her garden to grow some so I can really give it a go this year. Im actually getting quite excited if not a little scared too. 😂😂
Your booth looked great! Did you order your banner online?
Yes - I designed it and ordered it. It’s 8 foot wide
I know this was 6 months ago but why the bags on the dahlias?
My light colored ones were getting eaten by bugs so I was keeping them bugs off
How much did you make ?
How much did you charge ?
If I remember correct I sold 35-40 of the $15 jelly jar arrangements and maybe 15 of the $20 arrangements?
How do you keep the wrapped flowers fresh looking?
They are in water
