Not that I don’t love your videos you post from the nursery, because I do, but it’s nice to be back at the flower farm with you doing cut flower things again! Your channel has evolved in the last several months and this kind of brings me back a few years when I first started watching your videos when everything was cut flowers.

[@re.plantedurbanfarm9918]

agreed!!!

[@kera4759]

Totally agree ❤

[@melisaarmstrong2293]

Great comment. I agree.

[@matthewheeke4377]

I agree, really missed the bouquet bars😢

[@ambethk77]

💯

[@maryellenwalz7415]

I wondered.... I waited...... And finally....... I heard “Tiptoe Through the Tulips!”

[@jenniferhooks2454]

Loved this tulip planting method. My husband helped me plant bulbs one year. He dug up shovels full of dirt, dumped in my mini daffodil bulbs, then threw the dirt back over them in clumps. Those were the ones that bloomed best. Go figure! I'm sure your mass planting will be fine.

[@cejanuary9378]

This is good to hear because I just planted a daffodil yard like this for wedding bouquets next year!

[@susannepope6197]

Your videos bring much comfort and joy. Please continue to include Tractor Driver Brad in your videos. I would be willing to bet that Brad has a smile on his face as he drives the tractor. He reminds me of my Dad when he used to drive the snowplow with a big smile!! Keep up the good work Brad.

[@katherinekelly4782]

I've never bothered with putting tulips in the right way. I'm always scrambling before a snow to get them in. I've never had a problem; nature finds a way!

[@linakhoury6623]

The tulips will be amazing with the pretty colors of them .🌷

[@debbiemelander289]

What would Laura from Garden Answer say!!🤣 I say, you go girl! Necessity is, indeed, the mother of invention and you have just found a new way to plant bulbs. 🥳🌷

[@LULC0759]

I was thinking the same!😅she would go crazy because she swears they don’t come up correctly if they’re not placed right side up. But she lives in a drier climate, maybe that was a consideration.

[@Edu_Kate]

Yeah, I hardly watch her anymore. Too many others to watch who garden on my scale.

[@user-km7dx3sm8r]

This is great, last weekend I planted 7000 tulips and we used the JCB to dig a trench just like you (normally I do by hand) but I placed mine in individually. Now I’ve seen this I’ve got another 1000 to go and I’m going to try your method of tipping those in and just levelling them out. This is a real game changer!! No more hot baths needed or hand cramp!!! Thankyou

[@daisyblooms4813]

Veda is very talented. Can't wait to continue to see what she makes :-)

[@susancramer5668]

A profitable two hours 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Can’t wait to see them in bloom.

[@janethenley2048]

Tulips and tacos 😊. You go girl!!

[@angelawhittenberg647]

Fabulous! I loved seeing all the names and pictures of the tulips 🌷

[@FlowerHillFarm]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

Love how you planted your Tulips. The last time I planted Tulip bulbs the darn raccoons dug them all up, and ate pieces of them. Pieces were all over the place. I was furious, now I don't plant them because I don't want to lose all that money again.

[@rhondaschenk5727]

I’m so happy for you Nicole! You’re having too much fun with “planting” all of these varieties!! ❤

[@carmenb3059]

I should be planting my tulips bulbs right now, but watching your video is more fun.🌷

[@stephaniewarren9285]

I'm team "set it and forget it!" Nature will always find a way! "Work smarter not Harder!" 🧠💐

[@FLOWERSANDSLOTS]

Nicole: I just received my 2024 Calendar and Koozie. I LOVE the Calendar. The pictures you took of your flowers are just gorgeous. I especially like the "Notes" page. My mother's favorite flower was Lupine and that is what is engraved on her headstone. (Lupine field....) It is quite lovely. Thank you for everything you do!! :)

[@matthewheeke4377]

My OCD is going nuts too watching you just dump the bulbs into a single layer. As Jeff Goldblum says in Jurassic Park “Nature will find a way”😂

[@stacynagle5192]

I cannot wait til spring!!!!! ❤

[@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994]

One hard working gardener!! Go chill a minute! Thank goodness for the husband support and I love a tractor😉

[@lisafenno4563]

My back is hurting just watching you! Can't wait for spring

[@jamieflint2550]

I saw a Floret video where they visited a local tulip farm to watch the tulips bring planted en mass - they used big machinary to plant tulips ... Definitely didn't place in neat rows w pointy side up - they used some kind of mesh on top and bottom to make it easier to harvest bulbs later, since they're not growing them for flowers. But I've done the touristy thing (I live in E. WA) & have visited those tulip farms during the spring, and the flowers are amazing. So yeah, I think it works! You should have a beautiful harvest!! ❤

[@fraukeg.facchini2691]

That's a great way to work smarter not harder! Can't wait to see all of those tulips flower next spring!

[@Greenmountain802]

🤣 I just spent 2 hours planting 350 tulip bulbs. You rock!😎 Great job Veda!!😍

[@Jan-R-]

Veda’s portrait is awesome! Super nice! 🌹🥰❤️

[@Edu_Kate]

I'm so glad you found an easier way to grow your tulips. Planting tulips is not enjoyable. But by spring we forget that work and enjoy the beauty. I still have some bulbs left to plant which I'll do now in MY zone 4 b garden (Minneapolis). Nowhere near the amount you had. I'm happy to hear your customers like the doubles. I have a bag of almost black tulips that are doubles. I have a few pink and merlot I may plant among them so they stand out. I have a couple fringed varieties and am really looking forward to seeing them. I also have a few daffodils and will mass plant them and be done for this season. Good luck on a successful yield next spring. 🌷 Veda's picture was amazing! She is so talented, like her parents.

[@KatMcNamara-fh1nc]

I experienced sever anxiety watching you use this method of planting. Can’t wait to see them come up and your daughter is a fantastic artist.

[@juliematthews5107]

Elin at Floret shared a video from a tulip bulb grower. They plant totally randomly between mesh to enable easy extraction. So this solution will totally work.......smart.

[@laurieclarkson9180]

wow! Your mini-me is so talented! Good job!

[@arnorrian1]

You really need to consider placing a shading net over the tulips in the spring to protect them from hail. Regular plastic 35% shading net saved my tomatoes from pretty strong hail several times.

[@melissacarreira461]

Veda is seriously the coolest teenager. So incredibly talented ☺️ And this planting method is a game changer 🤩🌈

[@charmainerohde8575]

❤ LOKI!!

[@Corntassels]

I find myself really captivated every time I watch one of your videos. As others have said, I think it's your down to earth nature, and that a person who loves flowers and flower bulbs can't possibly be bad haha. I was moved to see if I could find bulbs on sale late in the season while I was watching, and ran across both Negrita and Foxy Foxtrot, and they were both sold out. I've grown Negrita before and it's just so darn gorgeous! I'm looking forward to seeing how your new planting style works out, and I bet it'll be just fine. Until next time, thanks!

[@kel_bee]

What a cool planting method. Lovely to see you ever evolving and finding new ways to get more bang for your buck.

[@betsymaltby6788]

If I had to plant on the scale that you do, would do the same thing; bulbs are resilient...so I'm sure it will work. Am still digging trenches and packing them tight (which I never used to do years ago)...it worked out perfectly last year. I do have to cover with netting, held down with garden staples, otherwise the squirrels will go to town. When I see the first green growth I pull up the netting. While still cleaning up the garden and more bulbs to plant...already looking forward to spring.

[@Edu_Kate]

I heard a tip to keep critters away. After covering up your bulbs with soil, sprinkle a little Repelz-All. I wish I'd heard that before I planted grass seed. 🐿️🐿️ They're so curious around freshly worked soil.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

@@Edu_KateNot sure it works, though.

[@ericjorgensen8028]

Good work. Enjoy your extra hour of Sleep!

[@ljmosski]

Looks like my kind of method for planting! Vada-what an amazing portrait! I love it!

[@lindaparra6002]

I am watching, at five minutes, and even the first two minutes, I think you are absolutely awesome! It’s freezing out there, I understand you’re doing all the work and I’m just watching, but the two of you well your whole family works so hard to bring so much beauty. Stay healthy. Continued blessings from God, the giver of all.

[@FlowerHillFarm]

Thanks, Linda!

[@amymiller3633]

I am so excited to see video of this in the spring ❤

[@ginnysulya9805]

Wow Nicole, amazing I can’t wait to see how beautiful they all will look come Spring! I agree work smarter not harder as there are still only 24 hours in a day! 💜❤💛🧡💖

[@leah387]

Just need a tractor and a Brad = easier bulk planting. 😅 thx for sharing the types! And your pups…heart-melting!!

[@laurieclarkson9180]

IT'S SWEAT SHIRT TIME EVERYBODY! They come in all kinds of beautiful colors and make great gifts for the holidays!

[@susankilpatrick2918]

Way to go Nichole 💕🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💕

[@slightlyburntpopcorn696]

Double Negrita and Foxy Foxtrot are my favorites from your selection, they're just wonderful.

[@nnagle9224]

It is amazing how many new methods you've tried and used successfully.

[@martinarasouli7898]

Love the guitar welcoming music and gaaarrrrrdenn

[@sunmoonrise]

I just wish all the bulbs thrive the weather and blooms perfectly this time.

[@YanickaQuilt]

I have crate envy 😂😂😂😂 i am unable to find them even second hand. 😊 This piece of the garden is going to look magnificent 😍

[@FlowerHillFarm]

I only get them when ordering in bulk. I've never seen them for sale otherwise either! I have a stockpile now!

[@debbiemelander289]

If you have more crates than you need, would you be able to sell them at your nursery? Hot cakes!

[@kathleenvadney6217]

It’s called working smarter not harder in my neck of the woods. Glad you’re enlisting the help of the tractor.

[@allysonrogers9701]

This is a mental game in which I play. With myself 😂

[@gabrielevoelker2486]

Perfect timing I’m planting mine tomorrow. I always learn so much from you!!! Your excitement is contagious, I even got a pair of heart sunglasses at the dollar store. You started a fad❤️

[@christophertaylor9826]

Love the ease of planting tulips, game changer and time saver can't wait till spring. Your videos are awesome.

[@karenschwartz5209]

You are amazing!! Wow! Thank you, makes me want to plant TULIPS 🌷 😊

[@karenm5681]

Jaw-dropping beauties. 🌷 Gonna be a gorgeous spring!

[@terrihart2133]

Great artwork!!! Omg

[@lisajelle714]

Delightful! Good for you, using the tractor and planting this way- I think it’s awesome! Excited to see the field of tulips this spring: maybe give us a day by day extended view of the flowering?

[@FlowerHillFarm]

These flowers will be harvested for cuts before they start flowering but I'll be updating the progress for sure!

[@margitamoreborg2764]

This was really fun to see! Best of luck with the tulips!

[@kendallricker9633]

Got my tulips and omg, am so excited to "dump them in the ground" Great learning video...looking forward to spring.

Wow!!!

[@heatherjolly8389]

I'm in love

[@victoriakreative]

Pepperharrow in Iowa plants their tulips the same way and they have a U-pick with their tulips 🌷. I plant mine on top of each other as I am limited in space they grow just fine.

[@user-pr8di7bo2g]

That's crazy!! Can't wait to see the results!!

[@hesketh42]

I like your nursery footage and understand why it is predominant but it's lovely to see flower farm footage again

[@adalineblythe9653]

Jake sent me bulbs that looked like the ones at 14:05 and a lot actually grew

[@patriciascheffler5515]

can't wait to see if this works, I just spent the same amount of time planting less than 1000 bulbs! Please do an update next spring

[@kimjapinga6550]

Veda’s pic is fantastic! She is really developing as an artist. It is fun to watch.

[@mygardeninbloom]

That is going to beautiful!

[@dshollins5864]

Wow! I’m impressed.

[@sarahford6598]

Love the Queensland Tulip bulbs. Have grown for the past 2 years. I wonder if I love them so much as Queensland is my favourite Australian state to holiday in😂.

[@richbishop7896]

Can't wait to see them all come up in the spring! Bonny

[@sarahcampbell8513]

Oh, well done!

[@outgrowin]

Yes! We used a tractor to dig the trench too this year and it was a game changer!! Can’t wait to see all the tulips in bloom! 😊

[@trangtraihongdien]

Sharing about lily flowers is wonderful. The use of modern machinery along with your techniques has made the flowers bloom more evenly. Thank you for your valuable insights

[@cindyclark3969]

What an artist!

[@debbiewilson5739]

omg love it

It may help to do a quick hoophouse when tulips start to come up in the spring in prevention oh Gail and other storm ☔️ damage

That looks like such fun`````````

[@christineboyko4106]

Love that you are taking a more relaxed approach to the tulip planting... I am also very OCD with things like this, so I can only imagine how this feels... are you still like "oh boy, they better grow right!"! And your daughters art is wonderful! Knew right away it was Tom!

[@altheab.8907]

Amazing, Nicole. Such a time saver. They’re going to be gorgeous! 💕😊

Thank god, I've gone nuts watching in previous years thinking "theres got to be a better way" ! Glad you found a much easier way to do it. Best of luck little tulip bulbs.

I can't plant bulbs for another year when my space will be ready. Living vicariously through you till then ❤

Hi, The Tulip planting looks fantastic. Don't forget thou, last Mothers Day week you had a hail storm which damaged a lot of flower heads. Are you thinking of a temporary cover during that time next year?

[@evalinawarne1337]

FIRST time meeting you. I bought many packages of bulb's. I HOPE to plant this week. SMALL AREA. I had a Heart Attack 12 day's ago. So, I need to take it easy. Love how you planted.
