I love having fresh flowers- they make every space feel happier! I keep some in a vase on my desk, in the foyer, on the dining table, on my bedside table- anywhere that can use a little color. This year, I’ve decided to create a cut flower garden so I can walk out to my garden and grab new flowers whenever I need them! I am so excited! Here is everything you need to create a cut flower garden!

How to Create a Cut Flower Garden

A flower bed 

You can use a raised bed (here is how to make them!) or just a corner of your garden.  Before making your location decision, be sure to consider the amount of light the location gets- as that will determine what will grow best! Here are all of my favorite flowers for cut gardens!  If the area previous had other plants in it, make sure you dig them all out!

Bulbs / Seeds

Spring - Summer - Fall - these 24 Cut Flowers to Grow will look gorgeous in your garden and give you bountiful bouquets of fresh flowers!

This is what I am choosing this year:
Dahila -they are so coloring and the blooms can get so big! Plus they last a long time after cutting.

Zinnia – I love their shape!

Aster– These bloom a little later in the season so you can be sure that you have flowers until the frost!

Celosia – These flowers don’t look like anything from the grocery store! And they bloom up to 10 weeks! Fresh flowers forever : )
