Dream backyard perennial garden with Cranery Gardens (Part 1)

This is part 1 of a 2 part series.
I had a chance to visit fellow KZreadr ‪@cranerygardens‬ in late May where his garden was in peak bloom. If you follow him, you'll know what a gem his garden is and I left feeling like I'm doing it all wrong. How nice would it be to take a chair and sip a cup of coffee seeing all of that wonderful color? You certainly could in Crane's Garden.
We cover a few topics like:
1) Top perennials that keep on giving when it comes to cutting for both retail & florist work
2) More about Crane's beautiful greenhouse, including building basics
3) Crane's "shade garden" and what thrives in there
4) Most importantly, what a "low maintenance" perennial garden can do for a person who wants to enjoy flowers, cut some to sell, and not have to spend all their time flipping beds of annuals!
I hope you get as much out of this tour as I did!

    Thank you so much everyone for clicking on this video and joining the garden tour. This collaboration means so much to me. Thank you Jessie for visiting my garden. I learn so much from you and from myself during the tour. I had such a good time, and felt very fulfilled after meeting with you. 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

    I hope everyone can get as much out of this as Crane and I did. You’ll see that we are two different people learning from each other’s perspectives. Crane is an immense wealth of knowledge with a talent for design and im so thrilled to be able to share some of that with you! More importantly, I think he will resonate with a lot of people who want to still experience the joy of growing flowers and not have the business side steal from that joy ♥️

    I loved this tour! I’ve seen some of Crane’s reels or shorts or something in my feed and it was great to see more about the gardens. I’m very similar in that I have a small yard (much smaller than his) and I love growing cut flowers, but I quickly discovered that I don’t want to have my urban yard look like a farm where everything is cut as soon as it is ready and I need to hustle it out the door. Can’t wait to watch part 2.

    Totally wish we could grow such gorgeous cut flower gardens here in S. Florida, zone 11a 🥵 Though we can grow the "weed" Crane mentioned, lol. Its a native we call Florida pepperweed (lepidium virginicum), the entire plant is edible, the seeds are a peppery fun snack, its a butterfly host plant and considered medicinal. Love both your channels! Best wishes, Sheri ☺

    Personally, I'm not a fan of the sticky stems of Calendula, and I'm not a fan of the scent. I have some that came back in 6A. I'm allowing them to stay right now, but haven't decided if I really want to cut on them, since my first sunflowers are starting to bloom.
