Smilax is something I use a lot here in Texas

@mjmartinez8373 Год назад

I love smilax !!! I live in Chicago and was told by another florist that’s it’s best to order in the fall. Do you know of something similar I can use in the hot summer months over here ? 🤔

This is so super helpful. I have tons of autumn olive because it's invasive in Massachusetts (and many other places) so I make absolutely sure that there are no berries on the branches when I use it (late summer and fall) to be sure I'm not going to accidently spread it. It's actually good to use it because cutting it back reduces berry production.

Thank you for this vid. I struggle with foliage. I feel like I have a fighting chance now. Your idea of keeping snips in garage for couple days to see how it holds up is brilliant. thx again

@LittleBirdBloom Год назад

Hi Kathy! I'm glad you found it helpful. Let me know how it goes. 😎

@patriciahogg5763 Год назад

Thanks!!! Great ideas! My favorite greens: Pachysandra Pieris Japonica Rhododendron Miscanthus varieties- leaves/plumes

@toniasfreshflowers2345 Год назад

Thanks Kathleen. What a fantastic informative video. You’re the best !

So great to hear that you found the information in the video helpful! We are all the best. 🥰

I grew half a dozen gypsophila (baby's breath) and put it in some market bouquets last weekend - I was delighted with how incredibly pretty it was and have scrambled to try to get some more sown asap. Every bouquet which had it - sold. A good foliage I grow is physocarpus (nine bark). I have the claret and green ones. This was a top video!

@LittleBirdBloom Год назад

This is so awesome! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🌸

@ElderandOakFarm Год назад

Did you grow the covent garden type? How long does it last in a vase for you?

@alisonburgess345 Год назад

@@ElderandOakFarm Not that long - 3 or 4 days. But if it's in a market bouquet, that bouquet will sell. It's an irresistible flower. And yes, the white covent garden. The pink ones I grew were absolutely covered in aphids, and unusable, so I won't be growing them again..

Hi Karen! I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying and learning something new from the content. 😍

@salpiboyajian Год назад

I know exactly what you mean about different names…..I’m in Canada and we don’t use the name “disbud” or “gyp” but these are names that are commonly used in Australia.

@LittleBirdBloom Год назад

Yup! It can be very different depending on what side of the world you are ❤️

@lisaward5922 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for your generous expertise sharing! Do you regularly mix fresh flowers, dried flowers and/or silk/faux flowers in the same arrangement/installation?

@LittleBirdBloom 10 месяцев назад

Definitely yes! Particularly things like hydrangeas - getting good quality silks often look even better than fresh and you'll know they'll last really well if they're up in the rafters where all the heat gathers 🤩

@mjmartinez8373 Год назад

Thanks Kathleen, this was so helpful !! You mentioned taking care of the hydrangea. How can I dry it, and how do I care for it after it’s dried ? 🤔

@LittleBirdBloom Год назад

If you can get it already dried the best thing to do is then put it in a bucket or vase in a place where (a) the mice aren't gonna get it and (b) it's not going to get damaged. Honestly, I found a vase in the TV room was the best place to store it between uses. 😆 If you're buying it fresh, look for the woody stem varieties (most often it's going to be the autumn-coloured stems grown locally rather than the usual white or pink). 🥰

@@LittleBirdBloom ok got it, thank you !

@eleonoracollareda7856 Год назад

Why all my baby’s breath always get horribly dry when I put outside the water ?

@LittleBirdBloom Год назад

Yeah! That's super normal. One thing I've found really helpful is to make sure the baby's breath is well-hydrated before I start designing with it, particularly if I'm going to be using it in a situation where it's out of water. I generally like to make sure it's had a chance to hydrate for at least 48 hours before I work with it out of water. And cause it's baby's breath, the water gets dirty quickly, so I also change the water after 24 hours. 😌
