This year...wow..the 110 degree heat...and we had one rain since beginning of may!!! Water restrictions are serious around here...its been brutal...

I really had a bad year...not motivated...im not a.selller..sort of dabbling in n what i can and can not grow..

And then this heat and drought..about to tottaly toss the towel..i am pusbing 80...and love growing from seed...and well i found some wild liatris seed at a pals field im gonna try to grow about 600 or so and expect a 10 percent success rate ..they take 2 years to flower too..but after about 4 each one produces about 8 stalks..and it takes the heat and drought like a champ..

Well i gotta do direct seed my larkspur and ither cool annuals..

Never really know when to do it but there is rain coming..

You crack me up with your "drunk flowers" and "horror show" comments! Two questions...1. How are you liking your sprinkler set up? 2. What did you use to get rid of the pests? Two comments...1. Please show more harvesting videos!! 2. Please show LOTS more bouquet making videos with flower stand results!! Love watching your videos!! :)

That was such a joy to watch! You have a beautiful garden! A lot of hard work went into that I’m sure!

It all looks lovely! The drone shots are just spectacular.

I love the two tone Queen series. I wish I would have seen this video before I started my zinnia seeds. Do you have a video on how to build your support fence?
I love your videos. I just discovered your channel.

I was so shoked after the tornado video, i live in north europe Estonia and we cant get any tornados or stuff really but we have had rain and strong winds for a week already and thunderstorms every 2 days and a tornado warning so the farm is slowing down, also i didnt net my snaps because i had just such bad transplant rate and now they are bending and breaking from the ground. Hope you are well and no more tornados.

Amazing gardens! I am at the crying and lack of confidence stage right now. Dealing with thrips on snaps, and my zinnas are super short and I think had slugs eat the leaves. I sprayed the zinnas and are looking green on new growth. It’s a roller coaster of emotions!!

Love the zinnias and all the beautiful dark bright colors! Who does all the planting and transplanting? What does your flower stand look like? Do you make the flower bouquets? And what all do you use for pest control?

[Marie]

Such beautiful, healthy zinnias. I love the queen lime series. I can’t grow them well in my cooler Irish climate. I’ve got hit badly for the first time with thrips on my snaps. How did you get rid of thrips?

[lisabadger]

Maybe you could do a video on pest control. 🙂🏵

[tbirdlouise]

Where do you like to get your flower seeds? And where do you get the landscape fabric? It looks sturdy. Thank you, always enjoy seeing a fellow Okie succeed, and thank you for sharing pest pressures, they are a real struggle at times!

[warrenlauren]

When do you plant out your zinnias? Mine are not nearly as big and full as yours yet. I’m so jealous! Everything looks so beautiful. Loved the video. 🌸

[lisabadger]

You've done a wonderful job. Super inspiring! We are just starting our flower farm in central Arkansas. How did you deal with white flies?

[saminairfan]

What did you use on the white fly? New to your channel and love your videos ❤

[christyleitner]

How did you fight the cucumber beetles?

[mla]

How did you get the pests under control? We're just starting in pest season in Wisconsin and I want to be ready for when the crying/want to quit phase comes. Thanks! -Margi

[kaymill]

How did you get rid of whitefly? They attack my Confederate Rose tree. I'd love to know the secret sauce.
