ah thank you x

[@courtneycullen6289]

I've rewatched these what's growing in ____ from 2021 several times. They are garden therapy for January.

[@theflowerfarmer]

ah thank you x

[@LornaSpeakman-tu1kl]

Ohh”my you just have such wonderful gardens with such beautiful verities. One of my favourites is sweet peas and you have the most beautiful colours . I agree with you and now I have some new favourites. Thank you so much

[@theflowerfarmer]

[@emilyburgess5475]

Please do make this into a monthly series! So helpful. Beautiful flowers 😍

[@theflowerfarmer]

Good idea x

[@beebenton7820]

Oh my goodness - I couldn’t resist watching this and I’m so thrilled i did - it might be December but hey, what’s not to love with this fab bunch of June flowers? I only have a ‘pot garden’ here in London, on someone else’s first floor roof (!) and always grow sweet peas, climbing roses and ami magus - with varying successes - I’ll be adding the other top six flowers as soon as i can, adored the lilac sweet rocket and lavateria 😊thank you for bringing sunshine into this rather grey day 😊

[@theflowerfarmer]

you're so welcome x

I heard your interview on let’s grow girls podcast. And now I can put a face to a name.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Hello! 👋👋👋

[@helenyoung8012]

Thank you, lots of ideas. My first sweetpeas have just started to flower in the garden. I am in SW Devon and everything here is behind despite the mildish climate, living at sea level below Dartmoor.

[@theflowerfarmer]

it's been a tough season so far x

[@katharinemill648]

You're great! Thank you for this - also, for showing me that I've been pronouncing lavatera completely wrong for 20 years (starting gardening while living in Brussels so got the French pronunciations).

[@theflowerfarmer]

Lol - may be me pronouncing Lavatera wrong!

[@claireangier3322]

"Bless you"! Love your blogs. 🌹

[@theflowerfarmer]

Ah Thankyou x

[@janestewart2982]

Thank you, Georgie 💗

Any time!

Great thank you

[@nicolethijs5428]

Its good that you give the latin name to because Sweet Rocket means nothing to someone like me who speaks another language.

[@theflowerfarmer]

My pleasure x

[@bluetreedog1205]

Nice informative friendly video. Have a copy of your flower farm book which has been à great help

[@theflowerfarmer]

Great - and Thankyou x

[@bluetreedog1205]

I see your lovely flower farming book was written in 2014 i built à heat propagation bench similar to yours. With the cost of electic in 2022 going up so much is it viable in a buissiness sense. How much use does yours get. This year i have a large shelving unit over à radiator in the lounge. My wife is not so happy but it works 😀😀

[@theflowerfarmer]

@@bluetreedog1205 we only have ours switched on between mid feb and end April and since 2014 we have installed some photovoltaic tiles but I agree it’s not cheap - but cheaper than a shop made propagation still x

[@theflowerfarmer]

@@bluetreedog1205 I’m wary of growing over a radiator as a) too hot and b) seedlings lean for light x

[@tamiratliff4459]

What book is that, I have the wedding flower one and love it, but am interested in more, but I live in US , so if I can't get from Amazon, it's not feasible, you are the greatest, Georgie

[@jaimemorgan5323]

Lovely varieties!! I can't wait for my Hesperis to flower this season :) I grew Lavatera last year, but found that the flowers opened from the bottom of the stem up. Do you snip out the tips, or just remove all the lower buds and leaves to create a top-cluster stem rather than more of a spike formation?

[@theflowerfarmer]

Re Lavatera They do but I use them all xxx

[@Whipporwhill]

Wilta Ripple? Is that the name of the spotted sweet pea? And I didn't catch the name of the pink/salmon sweet pea?

[@theflowerfarmer]

Wiltshire ripple and Daily Mail x

[@Whipporwhill]

@@theflowerfarmer Thank you!🌿

[@sharonjennings1282]

The sweet rocket have a different name in this state? Also is there anywhere here to buy it or would I need to have it shipped overseas?

[@theflowerfarmer]

the latin is Hesperis Matronalis - hope that helps x

[@Car-jy8pw]

Dame’s rocket

[@lisag9493]

Hi Georgie, after watching this video, I ordered and sowed some sweet rocket ,, germination is very poor and taking ages,, any tips ? Best wishes, Lisa

[@theflowerfarmer]

Hmmm… too dry? Too wet? Too much sun? Too little sun? Good quality compost? Sorry… not probably helpful. Was it fresh new seed? Xxx

[@lisag9493]

@@theflowerfarmer new seeds Georgie, ,, half white and half purple,, some grown in the green house with a light covering of vermiculite and the other half uncovered in a cool bedroom ,, both kept moist ,, I expect once they’ve managed to set seed in the first year ,, I won’t need to worry and will be seedling control,, live in hope eh ?

[@theflowerfarmer]

@@lisag9493 that’s true you will live the self seeding - I always think if things not germinating we’ll change the environment - take out of greenhouse and bedroom and put in shade outside and allow rainwater x

[@lindafischer877]

Would you kindly spell these top five. I am in the US and hope to locate them. Thank you

[@lilacDaisy111]

Number two! What is the spelling. Oh, dear -- I can't find it in my seed shop. >>> "Ammimagus"

[@theflowerfarmer]

It is Ammi Majus - so you were very close! x

[@lilacDaisy111]

@@theflowerfarmer Oh, thank you!

[@lilacDaisy111]

Ha, was that only a year ago! It's mid winter here, and self-sown ammi is flowering in several places. Feels like it's been in my life for years! xx

Less talking and more arranging
