You are such a good teacher. I have aged out for cut flower gardening (I'm approaching my 77th birthday), but I can, and will be selling seedlings. I'm going to take to heart all that you said, and plan, start small, and learn from the mistakes that I will no doubt make. Thank you!🌻🌻🌻
Thank you for generously sharing your trial & error knowledge. It's very encouraging to a first year flower farmer wanna be. You've been encouraging & knowledgeable in all of your videos.
Awesome and informative! It will be my first year flower farming in my urban yard. I have flower beds in the front, side, and back yard. They are all 2 or 3 ft across and 10 or 20 ft long. Plus, some 2x5 raised beds. I will be growing pro cut sunflowers, zinnias, cosmos, celosia, strawflower, statice, basil, snaps, and dahlias. I have two beds that only get 6 hours of sun, and the rest of the beds get sun all day. I would love your thoughts on which flowers would be best in the bed with 6 hours of sun. I did grow zinnias in that bed last year and they did well. Thank you for all of the information you give!! It truely is helping this first year small scale flower farmer!
Glad to hear the content is helpful 😊..that’s always the goal! If your zinnias did well last year in the beds with 6 hours of sun, that’s a sign that any of those varieties you mentioned should do well there :) Depending on your climate and how warm you get, my first thought would be to put the dahlias in that bed this year.. even though dahlias are warm season plants, they don’t thrive in overly warm temps and a little afternoon shade will keep them happy until early fall when they really start cranking ;) best of luck to you! ✨🧡
@@twosistersflowerfarm thank you! I will put the dahlias and half of my zinnias there. I'm 8b in Oregon. Do you still offer the consulting you have talked about in other videos?
Yes we do ✨🧡 There’s a link (and coupon for TH-cam followers in the description box) ..the link will take you direct to our website and give you more details :)
Your video was very informative and a lot of good information. Thank you so much.. I have been a flower farmer for the past three years but before that, I was a perennial center and a greenhouse owner some good perennials that would be good for a cut. Flowers would be Baptisia, Phlox,(David) and Echinacea. Good luck and perennials to your cut flowers. I have worked with the perennials and now I’m trying to add the annuals to have a you pick an area for customers. I am in zone 4. Thank you
So much great information, as usual. Thank you! And you’re right- individuals just need to start planting, using your guide or another one out there, and see what works for them.
While I did take the Floret Workshop back in 2019, their Quarter Plan wasn't released until a few years later. Alumni students do have access to newly published materials; however, the garden plan was never uploaded to the course as a digital file (past students could receive the plan if they purchased a new course book in the years that followed). So long story short, I have not seen the Floret Garden Plan to know how similar the two resources are. My Quarter Acre Plan is based off of my experience of what has worked well for me.. hope that answers more questions than it creates ;)
Great video! Very encouraging ❤This is my first year growing flowers. I hope they turn out, I will have to double the amount next year!
You can do it! Best of luck!
@@twosistersflowerfarm Thank you!!

Thank you so much for your recommendations! Definitely will be adding those you mentioned to my list :) Best of luck to you as well with the annuals!
Excellent!!! I’m excited about getting started. I’m in zone nine.
Wonderful! You got this!
I’m curious if you pull up your landscape fabric at the end of the season and work and amend the soil…..then in the spring lay the fabric again?
Yes I do! If you scroll on the channel, there's another video where I share my garden take-down process :)
So much great information, as usual. Thank you!

Couldn’t agree more.. just get started and see where it takes you! 💕✨ Appreciate you tuning in 😊🧡
Is your 1/4 acre similar to the floret flower class sample 1/4 acre plan ? Just at glance...it looked similar
