Flower farm tour July 2023

- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2023
- Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery on a tour of Common Farm Flowers this July 2023. Lots to do from taking salvia cuttings to pricking out and potting on seedlings to giving the dahlias support with string. The bees are buzzing, the butterflies buzzing, sun shining, rain falling, new crops growing, roses holding on, some perennials ready for a mow, some just popping up - it’s all happening here on the flower farm x
For an extended, ad-free version of this clip, all the info re 'the project,' and all Georgie's new clips with extra tips, news and regular live at 5s, do join her RUclips club. You can join up here: / @theflowerfarmer

Smashed the bell icon after hearing your voiceovers for the little seedlings 🤣
So nice of you x
I really admire your ethos and you really deserve to be successful. If more people put nature before profit the world would be a wonderful place
thank you x
What a poignant and thoughtful ending. I hope you are here for many decades to come. That was the quickest 34 minutes full of knowledge, humour, and beauty. Your garden/farm is glorious is all its imperfect natural state. Thank you for sharing with us all tonight x
Glad you enjoyed it! x
I lovecwatching your videos there so knowledgeably you've given me so much advise I've always loved wild flowers and cottage gardens ìts nice to see your looking after the planet I loved what you said at the end of the vidio thankyou so much 😊
Completely agree with your sentiment at the end. Loved the tour.
thank you x
Especially useful to me was the bit about the placement of the stem cuttings against the pot's side. These bits and bobs of practical wisdom are immensely helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! x
I always love the tours...😊 God bless
Glad you like them! x
First time I popped on. Really enjoyed this Georgie! Loved your closing thoughts as well.
Thanks so much! x
Thank you ! Very good presentation skill and useful information !
Glad it was helpful! x
Georgie, thank you for everything that you’re showing us and your straightforward way of explaining all the good things the planet means including you
thank you x
Wise words Georgie, yes we need the rain.
thank you x
I bet few flower farmers have such a cool workshop
lol - I'm building a new one up the field - less grand, but more practical x
Georgie, you are a marvel. You are so competent at keeping all sorts of balls in the air. I’m amazed at how much you accomplish. Great role model! ❤
Thank you so much! x
Butterflies love the Knapp Weed! Simply gorgeous gardens and even better ethos!
they do - I love the knappweed too x
Loved walking with you again in July! i m going to check back how to intermittently cut back my roses.
go for it x
Really beautiful farm
Thanks for visiting x
Fab tour Georgie, I am always very interested what is growing in other people's gardens. Very poignant ending to the video, we are trying to become water self sufficient, with two greenhouses and two acres of garden it is a challenging ongoing project, but i agree we need more water in the ground
glad you agree x
Thanks for the tour. Beautiful. You are so industrious!
Thanks for watching! x
Glad you are back. Missed you.
hello! x
Good to see you Georgie. Like your blouse.
I only staked my Dahlia's 2 days ago, in the rain I might add, so I dont feel so bad about being late doing it, as you're also just managing to do yours.
I also use the piggy tail stakes but the 1 tip I wished I'd done was to tie the string at each point in case of accidents when cutting the flowers.

next time xxx
You certainly got your wish for a higher water table. I hope you haven't been too affected by the flooding this winter.
lol - we're always a marsh in winter slosh slosh slosh x
So enjoyed this. Your flowers are just beautiful and you are full of inspiration! xx
Thank you so much! x
Beautiful video. Yes, lots of gentle rain would be lovely. I miss our summer showers, getting very rare. It is scary and sad. Thank you
Don't worry nature knows best nobody in the UK has run out of water in their tap
you're welcome x
haha - yet! x
I could kick myself . After last weekend’s high winds my salvia Amistad had a similar shearing off ( a piece very much like yours in the video). I stupidly just put it into the brown bin and did not even think of using it for cuttings.
lol - same weather this weekend so you may get another chance. xxx
Oh yay!
hello! x
Hi there, I am a New Zealander and hear you refer to N Z Dock. I am 72years old and having gardened for some 50 years, and travelled widely In NZ, and although we commonly see the green dock with its almost impossible to dig out, root system , I don't recall having ever seen the 'Rubra' variety you have growing. Interesting. We had an extremely wet summer, autumn and so far winter, but I picked up extra compost, potting mix and packets of seeds this week in anticipation of a better growing season coming up. Here's hoping. Love the programme 😊.
good luck - spring must be just around the corner for you x
Georgie - font of all knowledge and keeper of invertebrates- lush green sedum question. I have a gorgeous patch of it that I stole from my parents somewhat overgrown plants, currently thriving and very green and gorgeous almost identical to yours. I’d love to use it for a green and white wedding on 12th august - how long do you think it will hold on to green before turning vivid pink?!
Cosmos is so pretty. Great video.😊
thank you x
❤
Lovely things in the garden. Here in California we thankfully got a lot of rain in the late winter/spring that did a lot towards our drought. Not enough for the aquifers but it helped.
apparently the human race has taken so much ground water out that we've tilted the planet!
Loved it Georgie-fabulous walk round. You may have resolved my mystery plant conundrum. I now believe my purple mottled green leaves may be sweet rocket 🤞🏻
First time I’ve spotted just how long your polytunnels are - wow!!
I won’t buy you a coffee - not that you don’t deserve one after that trek - but I’m very much looking forward to reading my copy of Grow Your Own Wedding Flowers this weekend. I’m sure it will become as well thumbed as The Flower Farmer’s Year Book. Highly recommended!
Wonderful! - enjoy x
Thank you for the tour Georgie! I hope you do get some rain. We need it here in New Mexico too. Love your videos!
thank you x
I was really surprised when you said that was a Salvia!
A few weeks ago two small pieces snapped of one of our hydrangea, and dad absent mindedly just stick it in my long veg/flower bed. To our absolute astonishment, both took root and now have been potted up. They've even got little sepals on them!
oh that's fantastic x
Oh noooo! Do you have Japanese Beetles??? They are devastating in the eastern part of the US. Anyway, hope you can find out quickly what those other little beetles are. I'm enjoying your videos with tips & tricks & tutorials & fun. Have a nice week!
I think they are baby shield bugs - not a bad person in our garden - we love them x
Hey Georgie gal, its great to see ya! Ive been knee deep in plant, weed, harvest, design, repeat
lol - and on we all go x
Love your videos!
Thank you! x
Georgie, I learn so much from your tours and have started plants after seeing what you grow. Could I ask the full name of the verbena at 30:34? Please
verbena hastata white spires x
🙋hi from Scotland i love your flower farm hope your mum is doing well can i ask my geums flower early in the year then go on to grow very lush folage,how can i get them to flower again before the end of summer thank you
cut them back and give them a feed and they'll keep flowering x
@@theflowerfarmer i have done that thank you for your help i will just have to wait and see,i have had them fir years and split them every other year thank you take care
Lovely video Georgie! I love your back porch even with the scary head. :) It was a welcomed rainy day here in Maryland USA. We have also been in a drought. Question - The white spike flower that you said you liked so much. Would that be Veronicastrum Virginicum - Culver's Root?
yes that's it x
🌝
Do you use the cal poppies in arrangements? If so, what of the vase life???
yes sometimes - they're good in wedding flowers because they don't last long but have an ephemeral beauty which people love in flowers for weddings. I cut them still in bud and they pop into flower once even in the bride's bouquet on the way to the church which she loved x
What variety of of the yellow yarrow are you growing?
Cloth of Gold x
