Afraid to Cut Flowers for Bouquets? Watch This Garden Tour!
In this video, I will share what how to harvest backyard garden flowers with peace and get beautiful bouquets. These tips and technique will allow you to cut flowers without harming the plants, but promote growth. I will take you to a mini garden tour, showing my annual summer flowers, perennials flowers that are blooming in July 2024. I will show how to create beautiful arrangements with homegrown flowers.
About Me: Hi! My name is Crane. I grow cut flowers in my suburban cottage home garden in a naturalistic style in New Jersey Zone 7. I make garden bouquets and sell at the roadside stand in front of my house. I also grow all kinds of vegetables and, sometimes, cook. I grow ornamental landscape plants and trees as well as create sanctuary for wildlife, birds, insects, etc. Thank very much for visiting my channel. Any question, please let me know in the comment.

"Holy Smoke...bush!" 😂 Thank you for giving me permission to cut back or rip out ratty, tired eyesores in the garden. Makes such a difference. Yes, let it go!

My favorite things you say. “Ga-dooka-dik” and sing “Let it go”. I too sometimes sing Let it go to myself to remind myself about what is important and what I need to just let go of. Your garden is so lovely. Thank you for sharing it with us. Also the before and after of the zinnias! Amazing!! I learn something new when I watch you.

You always bring a smile to my face. I haven't cut my floret zinnias yet, because I am just enjoying them in my landscape. Today was the first day I cut my Indian Summer Rudbeckia as a gift for a friend, fortunately I grew a lot, so more to enjoy and cut for bouquets. Your bouquets are beautiful, you make it look so easy! I have most of the ingredients, but mine never turn out like yours.
Love that for you. My garden is not as elaborate. While I’m a floral designer but I refuse to cut my flowers. Keep doing what you do. 🥂🌸🌺💐😊

A happy day to be encouraged in the garden! I need to buy more twine and get out there before they start to flop. I just ordered a new set of snips. I definitely need to cut back some yarrow. I am not sure I am brave enough to completely rip it out but it does winter sow really well so I could replant in the early spring. God bless you, Crane!

As usual, your flower bouquets are beautiful.
I like the idea of cutting flowers that need to be cut anyway and using them (honoring them). Does yarrow always tend to flop? 29:12- I never doubted it for a minute! 33:44- Awww... Feen is closing his eyes at you which is kitty language for showing trust and affection!❤
