This has been a great growing season for my cut flower garden.
The dahlias are beautiful and varied, with mostly pinks and purples.
I pinched the cosmos plants early, and they have provided lots of stems.
Statice is a great filler in bouquets.
This was the first year I started this celosia cockscomb with good success. Good stalks for cutting, striking colour, long lasting in the house. Yellow, orange, red, and a fuchsia tone.
And this wheat type celosia, also used as a filler in my bouquets.
And of course zinnia! I learned about pinching the small plants, and the results are big bushy plants, with lots of long stems for cutting.
Only 5 of the lisianthus germinated, and I potted them up together. I would love to have rows of these, with lots of colours. So lovely.
So this was the cutting results this morning.
Three bouquets for today.
