Tulips are in the ground! Unfortunately I only have one and a half beds of tulips that will flower in the spring. This is the first time I have grown tulips before so I am so excited to see how they flower. Who knows, maybe next year Iโ€™ll have five times as many. #flowers #tulips #bulbs #springbulbs #bulbsdirect #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #nzflowerfarm #nzflowerfarmer #springprep

Before putting my ranunculus and anemones in trays for pre-sprouting, I had to soak them in water for two hours.

The Dahlias are turning into a wilderness ๐Ÿ˜ณ This has been our first year growing Dahlias for cut flowers and it has been a tough one! Word around the growers is that it has been a pretty tough Dahlia season with prolific bugs, strange growth patterns, late bloomers, rot, diseaseโ€ฆ you name it weโ€™ve had it! Going into this season I definitely had a very different outlook on how it would beโ€ฆ but I guess itโ€™s like when you have your first child, you donโ€™t know what you donโ€™t know so on the bright sideโ€ฆ weโ€™ve survived this one, learnt ALOT and surely the next one can only be better right ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜… The season is not over yet and although half the Dahlia patch has turned into a wilderness, the other half is looking very respectable ๐Ÿ˜Ž #dahlia #dahliaseason #flowerfarming #flowerfarmer #flowerfarm #nzflowers #nzflowerfarm #flowerfarmnewzealand #localflowers #northland #ruakaka #northlandflorist #northlandflowers

These bright mixed Zinnia buckets were giving me all the fairytale vibes last week. Did you know that we supply DIY buckets so that you can arrange your own event flowers or bouquets? One of the reasons I started this business six years ago, was that I needed a reliable supply of cut flowers, and couldn't find any in Whanganui. Ours are grown mostly from seed or propagated from cuttings, without harmful chemicals, and with minimal soil disturbance. This was part of a florist order, along with Sunflowers, Strawflowers, and Dahlias. Sometimes flower farming is dirt-under-the-nails, sweat-on-the-brow, wind-in-the-face, and rain-down-the-pants...and other times it is knee-deep-in-blooms and armloads-of-pure-joy. #Zinnias #nzflowers #nzflowergrower #nzcutflowers #nzflowerfarm #nzflowerfarmer #nzgardener #nzflowercollective #whanganuinz #whanganuiflowers #nodig #pollinatorfriendly #organicprinciples #wanganui #wanganuiflowers

One of the best crops we grew this season would have to be Marigolds. Big fluffy luscious heads on strong stems, they have coped so well with the hot dry weather, bugs and whatever else this intense summer has thrown their way, they have thrived on our no-till farm and just keep producing beautiful blooms. Also HOT TIP if youโ€™re not keen on the smell remove the leaves, the flowers actually have a very soft floral fragrance and itโ€™s the leaves which are pungent. Pictured here are Nosento Limegreen, White Swan and Imperial Yellow. We will definitely add these to the grow list for next season. #marigold #marigolds #cutflowerfarm #flowerfarm #notillfarming #notillflowerfarm #flowerfarmers #flowerfarmer #northland #northlandflowers #nzflowerfarm #grownnotflown #localflowers #summerflowers #summerannuals

๐ŸŒผ Seeds!!! It seems to be at the forefront and top of discussions at the moment with @floretflower recently releasing their beautiful new seed varieties and as weโ€™re all starting to think about Autumn sowing. Not to mention the whopping big order I just placed at the seed merchant ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿซฃ๐Ÿ˜ฌ yikes now this is definitely feeling like a business and not a hobby farm as someone likes to refer to itโ€ฆ โค๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ A few weeks ago I had a go at collecting Antirrhinum/Snap Dragon seed from some of the colours I really liked over the season. Having the extra space to allow plants to go to seed has been so satisfying. Itโ€™s been so nice not having to rush to rip out old plants and replace with new, taking away some of the stress and pressure and allowing me to experiment with seed collecting. Snaps are surprisingly easy to collect seed from, when the pods are brown and have little open holes at the end you can pick them off and literally shake or pour the seed out. I found this a bit tedious and in the end just crushed the pods between my fingers. It was amazing how much seed I collected!! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ™Œ Watch this space to see how it germinates! #seedcollecting #seedsaving #seeds #flowerfarming #flowers #flowerfarmers #flowerfarm #nzflowerfarm #flowerfarmnz #northlandflowerfarm #localflowers #snapdragon #snapdragons

With the arrival of February and school returning, it can feel like summer is over especially as a southern gardener as I have to start planning and sowing for next season already, just as my summer flowers start arriving. Our seasons in the south are fleeting, but there is something magical about getting to experience all the seasons so distinctly. By the way summer certainly isnโ€™t over February is often the stillest month of summer for us with lazy days lakeside and I love the fade out of summer with shorter days and cooler evening but still plenty of sunshine in March. . . . . . #thejoyfarmer #gardenflowers #nzgardenflowers #seasonalflowers #nzflowerfarm #nzflowergrower #centralotagoflowerfarmer #nzflowers #nzgarden #nzgardner #centralotagoflowerfarm #nzflowers #nzcutflowers #wanaka #wanakaflowers #freshflowerswanaka #centralotago #centralotagoflowers #centralotagogarden #nzflowerfarm #flowerfarm #summerflowers
