Most cut flower varieties are annuals–these plants grow fast and complete their life cycle in a season, so you’ll want to harvest the blooms often to keep the plants producing. Some favorite cut flowers like Cornflower Tall Blue are hardy annuals that can be planted in early spring, while biennials like Black-Eyed Susan can be planted in fall for flowers the following year. A majority of cut flower classics, including Zinnia Peppermint Stick, are warm-season annuals that can be direct-seeded after your area’s last frost.

Cut flowers are prized for their long, straight stems that are easy to arrange. To encourage this growth habit, plant your cut flowers close together in fertile, well-draining soil in full sun. Most cut flower growers organize their cutting gardens in straight rows for ease of harvest, but most cut flower varieties thrive in containers and raised beds, too.

While harvest windows and techniques may vary between species, a good general rule to follow is to cut flower stems about eight inches down, when the buds have “cracked,” or have just started to show color. If you can, try to pick in the early morning or evening, before the heat of the day. Transfer your cuts to a bucket of cold water, and allow the stems to rest for an hour or so before you begin to arrange them.

The recipe behind arranging flowers is simple: decide on a color scheme, chose a vase, and incorporate focal flowers, accent flowers, and filler into your design. Use large, attention-grabbing flowers like Peony Pink Mix or Dahlia Rip City for your focal pieces, and then incorporate smaller supporting flowers like Chinese Forget-Me-Nots and Pansy Swiss Giants Silverbride. Add texture and fill out the bouquet with Baby’s Breath, or something similar.

Once you’ve made your arrangement, add one aspirin or a spoon of sugar and a spoon of vinegar to the vase to preserve your fresh flowers. Depending on the species, cut flowers will last a week or two in the vase.

Don’t be overwhelmed by the thought of growing or arranging cut flowers. The process is much easier than you think, and there’s never been a better time to learn. You’re just a few clicks away from weekly fresh flower bouquets of your own making. Place your cut flower seed order today, before these popular beauties sell out for the season!
