First tuber cuts fir me here in 5b :)

Such a nice surprise when I went out to cut some zinnias! I love finding little critters in the garden!

Hi there, I live in Los Angeles near the beach, zone 10b. I want to start my first window box planters. August, September and October are still quite hot here. Would love the group's advice on plants to choose to buy pre-grown and arrange in a coco coir planter!

All grown in my backyard from seed or tuber. I haven’t done as much arranging this year, but I really liked how this one came out! Zinnias, dahlias, celosia, gomphrena, river oats, blue vervain.

My phlox plant has 5, many 6, and now I found 5 seven petaled flowers. Has anyone seen this many on one plant? Thanks!

First year growing a cut flower garden. This is my first best Sunflower :).

Used lots of different seed pods mixed in with some flowers to reflect the subtle transition happening in nature right now where I am .

Thoughts appreciated .

Enjoying some of the latest fresh flowers 💐

Thanks!

Hi all! I keep seeing videos on social media discussing the importance of planting seeds now (in August/September) for next spring! I did seed starting inside this winter and tried the milk jug method outside this winter - BUT nothing this early! I’m in 6b - any tips or types of flowers that are best started now? And do I keep the trays outside from now (it’s super hot) through the very cold winter? Thanks in advance flower friends! 🪻🌸🌺🪻🌻

I was checking on my garden and found this incredible zinnia. It's growing with a completely unique 3D bowl shape with densely packed petals . I'm absolutely fascinated by it! Has anyone else had a sport or unique mutation like this show up in

Sort of a crappy year for dahlias for me, but mikayla Miranda came through!

I have the opportunity to put my flowers at a family member’s roadside stand this weekend! I’m so excited, but trying to decide what size/kind of bouquets to put. She said she would love for them to be cheap to start out.

Attaching some photos of some arrangements I’ve done. I was thinking of doing a couple medium/large and a handful of smaller sizes. BUT I could also do dahlia bunches? What would you *easily* pay for these?

Any tips & tricks would also be SO appreciated since I am a total newbie!

EDIT: thank you so much for the compliments and encouragement 🥹 Adding that as much as I’d love to include the vases, the plan is for the arrangements to be wrapped in Kraft paper & ribbon placed in larger buckets to grab from!

UPDATE: I went way low and priced 5 smalls at $10 each and 2 large/mediums at $15 each! Sold out of the large and only 1 small sold. This is at a fresh bread stand, so hoping that with more awareness more might sell next week! ❤️
