You are my inspiration. I just bought 28 acres of property. Plan on using 2 acres to plant cut flowers. Have watched literally every video you have. Thank you so much!!!!!
I'm always so excited when you post videos! I'm cheering you on from afar!
In Belgium also very wet and very mild. Small daffodils almost in bloom. Some snow drops have flowers. Both Three months too early!
QUESTION: Hi Nicole! What kind of netting do you recommend to help your tall flowers not fall over?
Side note: you're awesome and we all always look forward to your content and humor! 😁👍🏽🌱
Thank you again for your recommendations!
Cheers,
~Kevin
For the November wedding question, I'd recommend looking into "cool flowers" many of them will be able take a frost. Strawflower, statice, bachelor's buttons, snapdragons, calendula,
Thanks for the Rudebeckia advice I planted a few new varieties last year and they really brought a lot of joy to my garden and to a few boquets I was able to add them to! Blessings for an awesome 2024 season! 🤗🎉🥳🌹
night and day at Botanical Interests has them as well! I grew them last year and they were amazing!
Stratification of dry seeds doesn't do the job. It's better to put seeds on a damp piece of tissue paper in a small zip lock bag and put it in the fridge before sowing. For how long depends on the species. It's usually 30 or 60 day.
Very wet and warm in Vermont and no snow at my house in central VT. Weird.
I'm so proud of you! You take hit after hit and get back up again and fight. It is a gift. You should wear a metal! Each year will have it's own surprises, but the rest will become easier each time. Just keep on keeping on. You've got this! Peace!
I love rudbeckia! 1 of my favorite flowers. Special connection with my sweet whippet Nousje (small sighthound) that past away 8 years ago. Always had them as a perennial in the garden. Up until she was a few years old (just to have a cottage garden, but I gave that up when she came so she had more space to run around). Special thing was, when she died in May, suddenly, the rudbeckia came back after being away for years... And only for that summer, disappeared again after that... I know it sounds crazy, but I always say that it was her that send them for comfort because she was so a special dog and it was very hard to lose her . Still miss her. So Rudbeckias a very special (and beautiful)
Same.. mild weather in Minnesota as well.. no snow for Christmas here
Thank you for answering some of my questions!!! You're awesome. 😁 Wishing you continued success. 💐
It’s not just workers comp that you pay as a small business. You also have to pay taxes on your employees. The amount of social security and FICA that’s withheld from your pay is the same amount your employer has to pay from their profits. Then there’s state and federal unemployment tax, village and state tax, school district tax and the cost of figuring out all that information and laying it to the proper places. That’s all on the employer. Good luck, Nicole!
She'll be fine, she is a soldier in everything she does!
I put up your 2024 calendar today!
HAPPY New Year to you & the family!
QUESTIONS: What flower do you grow for nostalgia’s sake?
What colors sell best for you?
What is your favorite fragrant flower ?
If you love cosmos, you should try Lavatera! Same colors and so easy to grow.
I live in W Washington my neighbor is Victoria Canada. We have had a very mild season so far here. I’ve seen California poppies blooming! What is a good seed starting mix. My hands don’t do well with using a soil blocker. Thank you for all you do!
Deer love hostas
I guess I must have missed the episode on Q&A so here is mine: I’ve seen some of your older vlogs about how you acquired your property, my question is have you always known you wanted to grow and sell flowers or was this an offshoot of another idea? I live in a small town in Texas and growing flowers seems just as hard as growing veggies let alone having it as a business.
Hope you had a very Merry Christmas!! Love ALL of your content!
Thank you! You too!
@@FlowerHillFarmThats Sweet 🧁 ✅check my comment when you can 😊
Don’t get discouraged by all the water coming in. I know you guys will be able to manage it with drain tiles. It will be a little digging around the property but with the equipment that you have at your disposal, it should make it a lighter job.
I’m so glad you had a great experience with the pop up community sale. Good for you! You and your family have worked so hard this year and I think you deserve the best of success! I just wish I didn’t live in Indiana. I would love to work for you if I could. Best wishes!
enjoyed the Q&A. The factual, teaching videos you provide are my favorites. Fan in Bozeman, MT
❤❤❤
Have you considered doing a 1099 hire since it will be a seasonal job? It may save you on some fees and allow you to pay the person more where they will want to return each year.
😮 Walllllllllpaaaaaaaper. I love what you have always done! I must have scars from decades of wallpaper removal, so just the mentioning of it makes me have a nervous tick. 😂
Dried hydrangea is gorgeous in November!
Oh my goodness 🎉🎉🎉🎉 🎉 love you Nicole 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Enjoyed your q and a. You look lovely and fresh and ready to go for the new year. Kudos on all you have achieved
QUESTION.....What varieties of lizzies do you grow? Any tips on getting them started? Thanks Nicole! Love your videos. I'm so happy things are going so well for you! 😊😊
QUESTION: What is the best weed control for lissies in the field? I plant almost cheek to cheek.. too close for burned holes in plastic. Weeds are awful. Could I plant maybe 3 plants in a burn hole and go that route? Thanks and Happy New Year! Stay strong, I can't believe how far you've come, and what you've accomplished. Mild here..z5. I decided to try some tulips this yr. and they are up! I hope they will be ok!!
SE Wisconsin and it has also been extremely mild!
Hi Nicole, love your videos. I’m heading into my second year growing flowers in Maine zone 5B (now 6A with new maps). Can you address which flowers you can grow from seed that are perennial? Last summer I had rudbeckia, foxglove, snapdragon, feverfew, sun ball, and sweet William. Will they come back this spring from the plant itself or will they come back from re-seeding?
Happy new year Nicole. I hope all your dreams come true. 🎉
You could dry straw flower and status.
QUESTION: What is your plan to keep thrips away from your glads this year? We also lost our crop to them this year.😢
QUESTION: please recc some flowering vines which are NOT morning glory, thanks!!!
I am in MA, zone 5/6 BTW
Question: Would you ever consider arranging another Grow Along experience for your subscribers?
2nd Question: Any insight why Rainbow Stock Quartet is so difficult to find?
QUESTION: in our zone 5a, it is also unseasonably mild and rainy. Some of my hyacinths are pushing green growth, and folks are reporting seeing the fiddleheads starting to come up in the forests. How do you think this will affect the hundreds of new tulip and daffodil bulbs I planted last fall?
QUESTION Any chance you got footage of you making your dried flower soaps?! Would love to see your process, supplies etc. Thanks for being an awesome inspiration!
Our state i think requires you to have 3 regular employees or more if I remember right.
Happy New Year!😎❤️
Have you ever prepaid soil blocks ?
QUESTION - i allways buy new seed for best germination, this year i´m going to test the seed i have left for 2023, witch seed do you recomend to svae year from year? and witch dont do as well...thank you for inspiering, love your videos. (i know that i can test the germenation for the seed in a box with tissue papper and a bit of water, but i cant do that for all, i takes time and it disturbs my seedplan...) how do you do?
Could you move to NW Minnesota and open your nursery here?? PLEASE!!! I want a nursery like yours within a hour or two!
QUESTION: i have had no success with Lisianthus. I have tried twice. They sprout and die. And the second is gnats or what ever dirt bag bug they are.
Hi! I know the anemones haven’t even bloomed this season, but do you think you’ll ship anemones again this coming year? I’m anticipating beautiful anemones this Spring so just thinking ahead! Thanks!
LAVENDER FOR DEER AND BUNNY SECURITY...PLANT IT AROUND YOUR PROPERTY OR I SUPPOSE YOU CAN USE LAVENDER CONCENTRATED OIL ON A SANITARY PAD, SPRAY AROUND YOUR PROPERTY TO PROTECT AGAINST DEER AND BUNNIES....RABBITS....THE STRONGEST OR THE RIGHT LAVENDER FOR YOUR AREA! GOOD LUCK.
❤
Okay so what about some one flying in I will beto volunteer for a few days??
Would it be possible to hire workers as independent contractors rather than employee?
QUESTION: I see that the shop lights, while high in lumens, don’t have the warm/cool colours (neither do mine). Is that ever an issue for reduced plant growth for you?
Hi Nicole, question: How do you prevent snapdragon from rust? Mine always gets rust and I don't like to use chemicals! Is there a way to prevent that?
QUESTION
I'm a young flower farmer, and 2024 will be my third year as a flower farmer. Any advice on the sales end of flower farming.?
Question: you talk about the nursery not being open daily. Why is that?
Could you use also the latin name of the plants. As a non us or uk follower I constantly need to stop the video to look up your US or UK names for flowers.
For anyone looking for deer and shade flower gardens, my videos have great suggestions. I have lots of rhodos and azleas.
Do you service hotels, motels or resorts with flower arrangement?
QUESTION....Can you?...or have you ever grown eucalyptus in your zone? I heard there are hardier varieties of eucalyptus. True?
Do you rent the house by shop? Do you sell it? Or turn it to Inn?❤
I have NOT been able to germinate prairie sun rudbecia. What am i doing wrong? It is literally the only flower i have issues with. I even grow my own lizzies, which everyone says is so difficult. I have zero issues. What could it be??
P.S. no problem with the other varieties, just that one.
Nicole, you are much more beautiful than either of those women!
❤❤❤ 🎉💐💐🎉❤❤❤
