Thanks for the time to show your experience! I sold 2 of 4 bouquets for donation only due to the area I live, poorest in Florida! I'm not doing this for money either! I was able to purchase many more seeds to start spring planting! I'm homeless and unemployed but waiting on SSD, I can live off that, working in the garden is good exercise for me! Fibromyalgia symptoms are insane! I try to watch you because you're not like anyone else! My mission is to bring people back to the CREATOR! Walk in Beauty, AHAVA
Thanks you for sharing this! I garden for me, but i'm starting to sell flower this year just for fun, and this is the perfect way I want to go for selling flower. Have a good day!
This is exactly what I needed to hear today Terren! I'm already getting enough flowers for a bouquet or 2 each week but I'm not ready to put them out there on social media for sale😁
Thanks for the great information Terren. Your bouquets are all so lovely. I can't wait until summer here in New Zealand so I can see all my hard work pay off with beautiful blooms.
Thank you for this information, it’s great to know there are ways to sell homegrown flowers on a personal or small scale level, my plot is not very big but I get far too many flowers for just me and my home! X
Love your videos! Lost you for a while with the name change, but so glad I found you again. I’m still trying to get my “growing” right…and have had some huge advances…but I do want to ask…what do you do about the “Bugs” in the flowers?! I gave a bouquet to a friend and delivered it to her office to sit on her desk…she said within an hour “bugs were crawling on her desk!” 😮. Not like a lot but still- how do you “de-bug” your flowers for delivery to customers?
Bugs are the worst surprise lol! That happens to me sometimes, usually caterpillars. I just try to make sure to harvest at the perfect stage before they are too open and prone to getting bugs in them. Jostling them around in the buckets before and after conditioning usually lets me "see" if bugs are hiding in the flowers. If there are a lot, usually I just don't use those flowers, unfortunate as that is.
These are all so beautiful! And such a helpful video as a new hobby flower farmer! Do you mind sharing some of your price points? You said Mason jars for $20. I find setting the right price so difficult!!
Pricing is so hard! I'm still working on mine, I'm trying to convert over to pricing per stem and making recipes so I am more consistent. I've also started using some willow branch mechanics so the arrangements look just as nice but with less "filler" to hold things in place. Prices per stem for me range from $1.50 to $8 depending on the bloom. Think $1.50 for regular tulip, $3 for a double tulip, $5 or so for a ball dahlia and around $8 for a specialty dahlia ... still a work in progress!
Thank you so much

Hi! Thanks for your video! Is one allowed to sell excess flowers that they buy from wholesalers?
I think it depends on what state you are in and if you have a resale certificate, etc
How you sale flowers??thank you..
I rent a space at a local store now
