7 flowers for your cutting garden

1. Black Eyed Susans– This hardy perennial gives you quite the bang for your buck, and is easy to grow and enjoy. It comes in bright orange and yellow varieties, attracts bees and butterflies, and the long stems are perfect for cutting. Add it to arrangements for a quick pop of color.
2. Bells of Ireland– Adding some greenery to your arrangements is always nice, and Bells of Ireland help you do this! Bells of Ireland grow to be quite tall (about 18 inches) and grow tiny green bells with whitish purple flowers. They offer a unique shape to your arrangements and some fresh green color too. Although it is an annual, you can grow Bells of Ireland from seed quite quickly.
3. Sunflowers– Sunflowers can create bold arrangements. Don’t be afraid of their size, as there are many different kinds of sunflowers to choose from. Choose from yellow, orange, and even red varieties as well as an assortment of sizes. Their strong stems make them perfect for cutting and displaying.
4. Gladiolas– These are a vintage flower that gardeners have been enjoying for years. Grown from bulbs, they divide and multiply over the years offering a nice pop of color to your garden. Cut them and use them as “sprays” in your flower arrangements and to add color and size.
5. Assorted Roses– Roses are the perfect perennial for people looking to cut and display their flowers. Even tea roses can be displayed in tiny clusters in bud vases or floating dishes, while your long stemmed heirloom roses are ideal in vases and arrangements. Even one cut rose can make a statement and brighten up a bedroom or bathroom.
6. Hydrangeas– You may not think of hydrangeas when thinking of a cutting garden, but the truth is these full flowers look gorgeous in arrangements. They come in so many sizes and colors, and their full round shape allows you to make some beautiful bouquets. Plus, you can dry them out and use them long after the summer is over.
7. Peonies– The peony season is short, but you are still sure to get some gorgeous blooms perfect for displaying in vases and other flower arrangements. Peonies come in several shades of pink and white, and their full shape can add volume to your bouquets. This is one perennial that comes back stronger year after year and will be sure to give you more to work with in time.
