An inspiring guide to transforming a small patch of ground, be it
on an allotment or in a garden, into a cut flower patch which
produces flowers from early spring to late autumn. Louise Curley
looks at what makes a great cut flower, ideal conditions and soil
and the tools you'll need. There is advice on what to grow - from
favourite hardy annuals, half hardies and biennials to spring and
summer bulbs to adding foliage and fillers to balance arrangements
- and advice on how and when to sow, how to support your plants and
tips on weeding, deadheading, pests and feeding. Growing your own
means greater choice, working with the seasons and super fresh
flowers. Bought flowers can be expensive and the international
flower trade often means dangerous chemicals, poor working
conditions for growers, demands on water resources and the 'flower
miles' of worldwide airfreight. This book will help you get the
most from your patch with guidance on how to cut the flowers so
that they keep producing more blooms and how to look after them
once they have been picked. The Cut Flower Patch is completed by a
selection of flower arranging tips and sample arrangements as well
as tips on finding great containers, planting plans and a helpful
year planner The Cut Flower Patch won the 'Best Practical Book' at
the Garden Media Guild Awards, 2014 Jason Ingram won Photographer
of the Year at the Garden Media Guild Awards, 2014
