Thanks for visiting the Freshcutky organic gardening channel. In the garden, I will answer some of the most common "gardening for beginners" type questions I get, including growing flowers from seed. Growing greens, growing flowers, and planting beautiful organic food is something I'm really passionate about. Thank you for joining me as I learn to grow flowers, cut flowers, vegetables, and much more. Freshcutky youtube channel and related media are for entertainment purposes only.
Many ornamental flowers and cut flowers are TOXIC. ALWAYS do your own research and take responsibility for the plants that you introduce around your kids, pets, and everyone else. Use common sense when handling plant materials: wear gloves, always wash hands, avoid contact with face, etc. NEVER consume any plant which has not been positively identified with complete certainty to be safe and edible. Before planting anything, research to determine whether specific flowers are considered invasive where you live or if there are laws that apply to their planting in your area.

What is "@freshcutky"?
@freshcutky documents the pursuit of my goal of one day owning my own cut flower farm. Along the way, you'll see random projects, cooking, and of course - growing stuff. I'm not an expert, and would never claim to be. There's always more to learn - this is my journey. The purpose of my blog, and other social media accounts (including KZread) is to share ideas. I do my best to offer information that is useful, but reliance on that information is strictly at your own risk and NOT a substitute for professional advice of any kind. I do not create sponsored content or use affiliate links unless they have been explicitly stated above.

    Hello all! So sorry about the audio on this one - my new microphone still hasn't arrived. Also, enormous thanks to my niece, who filmed most of and edited this entire video! She's a total rock star.

    I have white and pink callas growing by the neighborhood pool. And pink and purple callas growing in the oval flowerbed. A neighbor has yellow callas so we’re good!

    I love calla lilies, too! And as a Backyard gardener, I really like the idea of growing them in crates! I’m excited to give them a try.😁👍🏻

    I live here in Southern California. I order some 2 years back. Because where we use to live, our apt had a large bunch in the back yard. I would pick a few to give our home that special touch. I found the more you pick the more flowers keep growing. So now I will always grow them .Beautiful they sure are. And hey what about them pretty pink one you had ? So interesting when plants give you a nice surprise. Wonderful. A gift😍

    I've had a calla lilly pot for a couple years. This year I noticed it gave me a seed pod! While removing the seeds yesterday, I found that many were already sprouting. I have them wrapped in a wet paper towel inside a plastic bag on the window sill. I've read that it takes 3 years to get a bloom from a seed, but I'm excited about trying. Thanks for your video - it encouraged me to plant these sprouts in pots next to the mother plant.

    I think Calla Lilies are one the most beautiful flowers. I'm in zone 7, long before they added a & b to the zones, mine came back for a couple yrs.

    I'm in zone 6a and calla lilies actually winter over in my backyard! About 50 of them have returned for the second time.

    You did amazing. I think I will try your method for outside callas next year. I never knew not too plant the bulbs so deep, I think that’s probably why mine grow sooo tall!! Although I don’t know. I grow them inside and it is a challenge and this year I had soil gnats in the house so I believe because I had to battle those I was not as successful with them flowering this year. But there’s still a chance this summer though.

    I heard that they do well in containers because they like the restriction.. But I haven't tried growing them.

    Hi, I've heard mixed answers for whether you should cut back the plant when it starts to die or if you should leave the dying leaves and flowers. Also, can you leave in a pot over winter? If so, how do you care for it?

    You grow them beautifully. Great video! Do you place them in full sun or protected from afternoon sun?

    Hello, would you explain the reason that you grow them in crates instead of pots? Thanks!

    No special reason. The crate was just much bigger than any of my pots. Thanks for watching!
