- One of the tricky tasks of flower farmers is to ensure they will have flowers throughout the season. Here at Root Design we try to grow a cohesive bouquet in every season (spring, early summer, later summer). That means we grow a variety of focal flowers, spire flowers, twinkle flowers, and greenery that will bloom throughout the year, giving us endless variety for bouquets.
In this video we walk you through our growing list for 2020 + tell you WHY we grow the flowers we do + what it's like to do this as a side hustle.
If you'd like to jump ahead in the video:
1:09 - the list of Spring Flowers
3:30 - the list of Summer Flowers
5:24 - the list of Late Summer Flowers
7:08 - why we grow the flowers we do
9:00 - Redneck Couture
10:08 - Embarrassing Outtakes
There are outtakes and a mild episode of giggles, but mostly just lots of flower names.

The bouquets are sooo lovely! You have a gifting of God, with no excuses! So go for it to his glory! Thank JESUS!
Do not denigrate your design skills. The arrangements you create are stunning and original. Sometimes the professionally trained florists make arrangements that look stiff and formulaic. Your designs are charming and lovely. They look simple in the way that only comes from an empathy with flowers.

Thank you so much
I very much appreciate this video AND the transcription. THANK YOU! I have a minor seed-buying obsession and this will help me stay focused
I wish I could find someone with a southern grow list
@@jendubay3782 As in Southern US, or Southern Hemisphere?
You crack me up! I will not ever stop thinking of them as “fliller” flowers now. Love your energy!
Videos of how you two put your elegant bouquets together, that is something I'd love to see!
Me too
Please don't sell yourselves short. You definitely do have it together where it counts. This was one of the most helpful videos for planning the cut flowers. Thank you.
'Redneck Couture'....Oh, you ladies make me giggle - and snort. My kind of humour, to a tee. Very much the type of business I am in the process of building, too. Homegrown, self-taught, humble, 'organic-ish', and purty ;) Nice to see other ladies growing in dresses and skirts, too!
Giggle and snort - definitely our kind of person. ;) Best wishes on your home-grown business!
@@rootdesigncompany Thank you, I appreciate it! I would never have guessed you two are sisters, by the way. I have six sisters, and we get everything from refusal to believe we're related, to 'are you twins?'
Another great video. I would really enjoy seeing more wimsical flower bouquets made. That includes the names of the flowers! Thanks again! I adore you both!!
Your bouquets are gorgeous! Please show us how you put them together . I grow lots of flowers but would love to feel more confident in arranging them. Enjoyed this video and am learning to grow certain colors and invested a lot in perennial and flowering bushes to make it easier. Where are you growing at? Thanks
I would pay for a class on post harvest handling and bouquet making. Also I'd love to see a recap like this for 2021. This video was sooo helpful
Noted. :)
You ladies gave me so much laughter amd smiles.. I thought I watch this one to get fillers.. I got some of them from your list and I need to google them now to see the pictures. Thanks for the list. Hopefully I got most of them. You ladies having so muvh fun! 😊
We should probably redo the video and add pictures, but I’m glad you enjoyed it and got a chuckle out of it. :D
New subscriber here! I just recently found your channel, and I am in love... with the flowers, the bouquets, your personalities, your humor, your story, your video quality, ... EVERYTHING is perfection! PTL!
I'd love to see your seed starting set-up and maybe a tour of your studio/work space. And I'd love a tour through your garden sometime too!
I would love to see that too !!! Take us through all your steps
I love your designs but I truly adore watching you two together! The outtakes made me spill my coffee! Thanks for the tips and giggles! 😂💐💚
Sorry about the spilled coffee. 😅
Your bouquets are so stunning and natural. Totally love your videos and your work
Your design work is beautiful!!!
I agree. Forsythia is beautiful in the autumn to use in bouquets.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and those beautiful flower arrangements that you made! Your videos always add joy and beauty to my day. Thank you!
So glad to have come across this channel. Gorgeous photography, great information, and delightful hosts. Thanks so much!
Welcome! Thanks for your kind words!
Don’t get too much better at making videos! Your realness is refreshing and fun! Great video!
Not to be a geek--meant to be helpful: Celosia is pronounced "che-law-SI-ah." CE in Latin and Italian are a CH as in church sound. There are no "closed" vowels in Latin, which means they all feel a little loose or "open." hence, the "LO" in Celosia is not pronounced "low" but law. Sorry--I'm a classical singer so I have to know this stuff. :) Hope that helps .
Wrong. Not a Latin word. It comes from Ancient Greek, meaning burning. You people have Google, right? Why not check things?
I hope you keep this channel going! Love it! Thanks
You both are so talented! Would love to see a video or 3 on putting a bouquet together, how you choose what to put in the bouquets, etc. And thanks for adding the outtakes, laughing with you all is good for the soul ☺️
We are hopeful to make a video or three on bouquet making a bit later when we have flowers to work with , so stay tuned for that! :) And it would be even better if you were here in person to laugh with us. :D
Hi! Y’all are awesome! I can’t believe I’m barely discovering y’all! Thanks for the video! 💕

Oh my goodness:) new sub, just found your channel and am binge watching all of your videos in one day. Love your content; your sisterly chemistry is so natural & a joy to watch.Feels like I am watching life-long (don’t want to say old lols) friends when I watch your videos. Thank you 😊
Your flowers are jaw dropping! Would love to see you guys pot them up. I like how the flowers drape over the flower pots. Big thumbs up to your photographer 👍
You ladies make me smile. Nice info too. Thank you
This video is so helpful, thank you!
Would love to see you put your bouquets together. 💐
Thank you for your fun videos. You truly belong in my tribe! 🤓 I am getting together a cutting garden and need those twinkle flowers. 🌸 I look forward to your season.
Happy to be in your tribe! :) Best of luck with those twinkles. They are my favorite.
Thank you so much. I look forward to watching more as the season progresses.
Welcome along for the ride! :)
Love your channel and thankful your sharing your experience of flower farming
Your bouquets are amazing 😻. Love your challenge
Yall cute, cant wait to see what you will be growing 2021
Love the idea of planning your garden around a cohesive bouquet and color pallet, very smart. Thank you for sharing!
Love ya’ll
Your arrangements are really beautiful.
I’d love to learn how you combine colors in the bouquets you make since they are stunning! I just found your channel and I love your aesthetic and eye for design. You claim you don’t have it all together but you definitely have something very special. Thank you for creating these videos 💓
Love your videos!
your flowers are stunning. you may not have it together but your flowers have got it,
all going on . awesome xxx
I love watching your videos! Recording is so much harder than you think! Someday it will be much easier.
Just stumbled upon your lovely channel at the exact right time! We just bought a house in Washington Township Ohio and I'm planning out our landscape and want to plant a cut flower garden just for me and some friends. Please keep it up and know how much I appreciate the info.
Your flower arrangements are amazing. Love your design style 🌹
Such gorgeous and elegant bouquets. Thank you for the list of plants.
I didn't really think through filler plants, I mostly bought feature flowers - what would you say are your top 3 if you had to choose and have limited space?
I would love to have a cutting flower patch in my garden so this is very cool info to get. I also love the pattern on your blouse. Great job, the arrangements are beautiful!
I love you two, your videos are fantastic, I love watching your beautiful dynamic!
Starting a flower farm in Ireland and you've inspired me so much
You're so kind! Thank you for following along. What zone are you in in Ireland?
@@rootdesigncompanyOur winters are similar to 8b but we get quite wet and mild summers so it's not quite the same. Especially where I am in the West. More days of rain per annum than most of Europe. This year has been the dryest May on record so who knows what's in store for summer!
Hello!! I love love love your videos, I’ve been folding laundry and enjoying your tips on growing flowers and giggling along with you:) my question is : where do you buy your flower seeds? Do you get them in bulk and do you save seeds for the following season or do you buy each growing season?
Thank you so much!
Our favorite place to buy seeds is wherever we can find the varieties we want to grow! ;) We usually start with Johnny’s Seeds, but also buy from Geo Seed, Chiltern Seeds (England) and Floret Seeds. We do save some heirloom seed from the garden, too. We have a theory that eventually the seed you save year over year adapts to your climate and becomes more vigorous. Because we are relatively small, buying in bulk means we are way over buying, so we don’t do a lot of that.
Would love to see you plant in your gardens. Number of plant in a row how close do you plant. You look like you have fun that is what is important
Another lovely herb that produces flower is parsley
Yes! We like that one, too!
I enjoyed your video. Makes me feel okay. Hugs. I am just now trying to get some garden flowers going for bouquets. Hugs.
We wish you a lot of success this year! Be gracious to yourself if you have a failure or two, and be sure to celebrate your success!
Hi, I’m wondering what variety of viburnum you use? Also, what are your favorite rose varieties for arranging and vase life?
Thanks 😊 Lauren
Loved this video!
What are the tall greens in your bouquets?
You are so talented! Love your video! I had trouble hearing you though, the music was a little loud
Amazing thank u
Do you succession plant the celosia or is this plant just a long time bloomer? I haven't grown it yet... thanks!
Could you share what the rose is at time stamp 1:16? I’m making my rose list to add for next year and that is a beautiful one!
That is a David Austin rose, crown princess margretta, a beauty!
so fun ! thanks for the cilantro tip, are the garden roses different than David Austin roses?
David Austen roses are referred to as 'garden roses' in the cut flower industry. Garden roses are mostly hybrids.
Love the content, but don't love the distracting (too loud) music.
Do you both wear the black caps for religious reasons?
Can you add the name of the flowers on the videos next time? You the categories but not the flowers. It’s good information but hard to follow
