September book giveaway: Floret Farm's Cut Flower Garden

Welcome Lovelies,

Thanks to Mama the Fox for putting together this Glam and Glits Giveaway Hop. Here at Garden, Books, and Romance we're excited to be giving away an ebook copy of one of our favorite gardening books by Erin Benzakein, Julie Chai, Michele M. Waite Floret Farm's Cut Flower Garden: Grow, Harvest, and Arrange Stunning Seasonal Blooms (Gardening Book for Beginners, Floral Design and Flower Arranging Book).

At this time of year at the end of summer and right before autumn, we're planting our seed trays to winterize a select few plants in the garden. 

These ideas aren't new. It's a way to jumpstart spring flowers in time for Mother's Day 2022. Our love of cut flower gardening and the realization that it's possible to grow an abundance of blossoms in our backyard is inspired by the work done at Floret Farm and Erin Benzakein. Erin and her husband are the owners of Floret Farm in Washington. They've motivated thousands of folks to go from dreaming about gardening full-time into the reality of owning and running a flower business.

For 2022, we've begun planting. As of today, we've started five types of snapdragons, lavender, jewel-tone stock, foxglove AND hollyhocks (both seed trays and hydroponically), Ammi Dara, Rubeckia, Chinese Forget Me-Not, and Scabiosa (pincushions). Stay tuned for news about how the planting goes in October when we take the seedlings from the indoor nursery outside.

To see the results, check back since I'll post more photos and details about the progress of these seedlings.
