What is the solution when you want your house to be full of flowers, but you do not want to spend too much buying fresh flowers weekly? A simple solution is to have your garden!
So, if you have a space suitable for planting and a little time available, let’s get to work!
The first step is to make a plan through in-depth documentation and figure out what we want.
First, we need to buy flower seeds and plant them in pots with soil full of nutrients and everything required. The environment should be warmer and sunnier, favoring the rapid growth of flower seedlings.
After the flower seedlings begin to grow, some of them may be very frequent, which would stop their growth due to the lack of space. Then we have to pull them out to be rare and plant them in other pots.
Once the weather has warmed up outside, and our seedlings have grown, we can move on to planting.
The soil must be prepared in advance so that it is suitable for planting flowers. In addition to the seedlings we have prepared, many flower seeds can be planted directly where we will have the cutting garden.
It is essential to give the flowers a suitable fertilizer from the beginning to accelerate their growth.
Once the flowers are planted, it is essential to water them often, especially in the first days, to ensure their catch!
During the growth of plants, we must take into account certain tasks to follow. Some flowers need to be pinched in order to have flowers in abundance and stems as large as possible, which gives us the new opportunity to create bouquets. As I said, watering is an essential task in growing flowers. It would be preferable to keep their moisture constant to help mulch such as straw, shredded leaves, or black landscape fabric applied to the soil surface.
In order for the flowers to produce more and more, it is necessary to use a special liquid organic fertilizer for flowers, as we said at the beginning. Its application will favor constant flowering, so we will enjoy all the time, having a full house of bouquets and floral arrangements.
Some awesome annuals for your cut flower garden:
- Zinnias are some of the most common summer flowers that can be found in every flower cutting garden.

4. Sunflowers
It cannot be missing from a majestic garden to cut the sunflower. If we want the sun to touch us with a ray of sunshine as close to us as possible, the solution is a sunflower. There are two main types of sunflower: single stem and branched. Both shapes are equally beautiful, but unlike the one that makes a single flower, so we can enjoy it only once, I go to the one with more blooms throughout the summer. Why did I say that they are indispensable in a flower-cutting garden? It is the duration in the water.
