Most & Least Profitable Cut Flowers I Grew in 2023 💐 First Year Backyard Cut Flower Farm Australia

Ойын-сауық

Want to know which flowers actually worked best for the business this year? In today’s video I chat through all of the flowers which were profitable and those that weren’t. I also chat through the potential future profitability of some flowers as I’m sure that next year, as we grow, things will change. This is my first year as a cut flower farm which I run from my own backyard. I’m so excited what next year will bring and I’m looking forward to seeing how this list changes next year!

Hey there!
Welcome to my channel, The Nature Patch where I like to share all things gardening, cooking, environmental science and flower farming in my Australian bushland backyard in south coast NSW.
My name is Robyn, an environmental scientist, and flower farmer. I have recently completed my PhD in understanding how people's wellbeing and their connection to nature is impacted by land use change but now I'm taking a break from research to pursue a dream of owning a flower farm. I've always loved gardening and nature and lately have been interested in growing my own organic food!
On this channel you'll find videos relating to garden tours, 'how to' videos, composting, soil health and how to start a flower farm.
I try to upload twice a week and I hope you enjoy!!
🤎 Filmed and edited on Yuin country. I acknowledge and pay respects to Traditional Owners of the land past, present and emerging. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

    So useful, especially what you can charge per stem. Thanks!

    You should try the deep blue nigella if your blue cornflowers pop your bouquets. It’s not a multi use flower but the deep blue ones are bluer than the cornflowers.

    Thank you for not using plastic in your flower farm!

    We love daffodils and jonquils too. We put in a few hundred as this mid north coast climate is different to our previous cool Victorian climate. We weren’t sure if some would rot or not

    I think stock is one of the most underrated flowers. I don’t cut my flowers, but I just like to grow nice flowers like you may have seen on my KZread videos. However stock is by far, my favourite.

    Greetings from the Sunshine Coast, Qld. I watched you plant out many of these seeds and it is so wonderful and satisfying to to see the end result - being the perfect, beautiful flowers. Thank you for this very interesting and helpful video. I always appreciate these types of videos, as they are very honest pros and cons of flower varieties.

    Agree with Larkspur. Mine ended up really messy & falling over, even though l netted them. I think they grew too tall for the netting & l hadn't pulled it up. Plus they are poisonous & the petals fall off fairly easily. Also the anemones. I am growing more next season. They just keep going & are sooo pretty! Love them.

    What a great video! I love that so many summer flowers made your list. I would be keen for a dahlia video as I’m very new to dahlias as well and looking for flowers I can grow in a warm climate. I hope you will sell some of your flower seeds/ tubers in your shop online. 🌸 Thank you for sharing your experiences. 🌸

    Absolutely, I’ll try and put together a dahlia video to document this season. Very keen to learn a little more about them! Thanks for watching ☺️
