I love the smell of marigolds - they smell green and clean to me

[@kathrynplett8386]

I loved seeing this - all of it... your fields of flowers are spectacular! It is so helpful to see your process, pricing, and perspective on which types of flowers to include and confidence in when to stop adding more... (when is enough)...I often add too many. Blessings!

[@PepperHarrow]

Thank you so much Kathryn! We so appreciate all of your support. You’re the best! 💗🌸💗

[@bertharios7413]

Marigolds remember me my little town in Mexico (day of the dead). Your flowers are very pretty!

[@agnescarbone6815]

FINALLY !!!!! A honest truly demonstration of how to put a market boquet together. Thank you so much for this video it was exactly what I was looking for ❤. I want a backyard garden Not a flower farm. I just want to make boquet for myself and a few neighbors . This video showed me what a beautiful boquet I can make with just a few different flowers type ( could plant 4 different flowers),how many stems and the tip about the odd number .😁 Now to order my seeds for next season New Jersey USA zone 6B

Your field looks gorgeous and the video was helpful.

[@carolinapalomares9649]

nice to see you cutting out in the field!!!

[@berean7767]

Oh my goodness I finally understand what I'm doing wrong when rapping bouquets. It always ended up to snug on top. Beautiful bouquet!

[@dieynabadiop87]

I love the smell of Marigolds!

[@francineschnereger8246]

So helpful! Thank you😄👍

[@gardengal7308]

I so enjoyed your video toda. Thank you

[@letsgrowlv]

Beautiful Hopefully soon you’d share how to get rid of pests like ants and more on your flower farm

[@dianequist835]

I wouldn't want a "whole" bouquet of marigolds, but I love having a few in a mixed bouquet. The fragrance doesn't offend me with have a few 😁

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

I know this may sound strange, I had no idea Marigolds were fragrant. When I smell them, I don't smell anything. I'm wondering if it's because the ones I'm smelling are the small (dwarf) Marigolds.

[@itsbloomingflowers]

Good for you 😅in your area. Because even here in central jersey close to NY around 1 hour they won’t pay that. It’s a struggle 😢my bouquet have Lisisanthus on them and so on still people don’t want $15-$20 dollars 💵

[@brookestranberg4054]

Same here in the PNW, people are so used to Trader Joe's prices 😕

[@pixiepetalsflowerfarm]

Same here in Michigan. I’m using 15 stems and they are making faces about $20.

[@itsbloomingflowers]

@@brookestranberg4054 indeed it’s sad reality therefore next year am going strong force w high quality blooms like many lisisanthus that have multiple flowers and less stems

[@ambethk77]

Customers don't understand why Lizzy is valuable. I'm learning that my customers really don't care about the high value flowers. They just want it to be colorful and pretty. They're perfectly happy with sunflowers and zinnias.

[@itsbloomingflowers]

@@ambethk77 in my area they so complicated they see sunflowers and go like Ohhh 😮 I have those growing in my yard 😅 I then have to explain the difference

[@vivherman2296]

I love your farm. I don't mind the smell of marigolds, and they remind me of my dad. He always had marigolds around his mailbox. The weather/drought last yr. made me scale back..as I lost most of my lissies and others. I found the customers were just as happy with what I had on hand. I see other comments below about pricing. I'm in the same boat . They would not pay what I want to charge..so, I try to go for quantity. Try to make more large bouq. at my higher price, and less small ones nowadays. Might sound unfair...I've tried different ranges in pricing, and here..they will usually buy the small ones first. I do make a few..but I'll stick to making large ones this yr.

[@uteberg4781]

I just looked this video again and was wondering about prices once more. I love your bouquets and they are completely worth the 25$, but I don't understand how and when prices fell so horribly here in denmark. Last week I tried to sell bouquets with 18 stems for 16€ (what is about the same number in $) and didn't sell one bouquet on our farmers market. It all were mixed bouquets with fresh tulips (also parrots and frayed sorts) and daffodils plus some greenery like apple blossoms, but here everyone is used to the typical supermarket programm, grown somewhere else and shipped through (at least) half europe. And they are also sold at prices like at the supermarket: 9-10 stems for 6-7€. No local grower can provide these prices and so our so called "farmers market" is a market of traders selling with market flair. Also our organic approach seems to be completely uninteresting. I am so sad and looking for a new market for my products. Has anyone an idea for me?

[@amandashoger7844]

Beautiful! Wondering which kind of salvia this is, is it an annual kind or perennial?

[@thistledewfarm238]

I was also wondering what variety the salvia is, it's gorgeous!

[@teresasuderman2199]

Did you get a new camera? The video just popped! Very beautiful

[@staceychapman6895]

How do you keep everything up right without netting?!? Especially dahlias and marigolds!!

[@bonnieg110758]

What does CSA stand for?

[@juliesummerfield9784]

What variety of Salvia is that?

[@colleenbahm7712]

I can't stand the smell of marigolds! After stripping the leaves off I also can't stand how the smell lingers on my hands. So they are off my list for next year. The only reason I might grow a few at the end of my rows is to keep the critters away.

[@lynnetterussell7611]

Beautiful bouquet! What variety of amaranth did you use?

[@PepperHarrow]

Hot biscuits

[@lynnetterussell7611]

Thank you! I have learned so much from your videos!

[@lindaschaefer2252]

No marigolds for me!

[@melindarobb4529]

Giant marigold flowers are beautiful but the Stems stink.

[@jacktaylor1030]

TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS, THAT'S ALOT TO MUCH FOR ME, OR AM I JUST A CHEAPSKATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☹😥😭

[@berean7767]

From the moment they start seeds, flower farmers are tied down at their farm. They can't leave not even for one day. And it is incredibly costly to get all the supplies to grow beautiful specialty flowers like these especially nowadays. If anything we're underpaying them for these beauties in my opinion.

[@NicolesGardenNS]

No, I think you are right but it depends on the local market and other flower growers/florists in the area. Her bouquets are gorgeous, but I make my 20$ market bouquets bigger than that.

[@francesscocchera6747]

Zinnia flowers are very cheap to grow I am really shocked at the few flowers that you put in your bouquets and sell them for $25

[@PepperHarrow]

So much work goes into growing them. Seed costs, labor to weed them, water, labor to harvest. If you have an example bouq you’d sell at $25, please share with us!

[@francesscocchera6747]

@@PepperHarrow Good morning I meant no disrespect at all please know that every flower farmer worked very hard we were just getting started we’re only in our second year I am in upstate New York I can’t figure out how to put a photo in here but our bouquets are like double the size and we sell them for $20 we sell hundreds of bouquets like I said it may be the area where you live and yes I understand seeds cost everything cost money right now it’s just my husband and my brother and myself doing all the work from morning till night so it is a great deal of work again I meant no disrespect I was just going by what we sell I hope you have a beautiful day and happy planting
