Direct Seeding Cool Flowers in Fall // Sowing Hardy Annual Seeds in Autumn // Northlawn Flower Farm

Published 2022-09-17
Today I'm direct seeding cool flowers 6 weeks before my first fall frost. This year I'm direct sowing nigella, bachelor's buttons, larkspur, bupleurum, orlaya, and dara seeds directly in the ground. Mentioned in this video

    Fun fact: Where I live (Germany), Nigella is called "Virgin in the Green".
  • Danielle, it's always enjoyable & inspiring to see/hear your clear intent. Gardening often seems chaotic. So much to do, so little time, no? But there's a calming purpose in all you do, taking what can feel overwhelming into the doable. I much admire your focus & success in finding what's workable, doable & most efficient. Very helpful. Thanks!
  • Thank you for this comprehensive, thoroughly informative and detailed video lesson. I learn so much from you I’m taking notes! You are an absolute delight to watch. Your enthusiasm and depth of knowledge you impart give me hope and incentive to try some fall sowing and improve all my gardening. Thank you for taking us along- sharing your detailed methods, and daily routines. Loved the surprise cameos of your cat and dog! Also sharing some of your “failures” that keeps it real and I can identify with. I have a lot of those! I’m looking forward to your next notification and following you all the way. Best ever channel! 🌸🌸💕
  • Thank you for having videos consistently, such a treat to closely follow your gardening. You have inspired me to embrace my hydrangea love affair and I am currently creating a hydrangea garden, so many hydrangeas to enjoy! 😍. Have a wonderful fall.
  • I stopped in to Roher's last year for the first time. Ever since then I've been ordering from their online store since we're in Maryland.

    I’m really looking forward to watching the growth cycle of the flowers. It’s wonderful. Thanks for doing this. Love your videos!

    Perennial Campanula seeds benefit from a period of cold moist stratification. The stratification process will help the seeds to germinate more easily. If they germinate difficult perhaps you can try to do it like the tip my father once got from an old flower gardener for petunia. Don't put any soil on top but just lightly press in the seeds with a small block of wood or so.
  • We are 7b here in North Carolina so I will take your great inspiration and plan for some cool flower planting over the next few weeks. Thank you for sharing your successes and failures in the garden. We are always learning from each other 😊

    What a wonderful and calming/relaxing video, with natural sounds, and no silly background music. And you are so real! Your garden is real, not a fake show garden like other youtubers gardens.. You don't run around like a squirrel planting endlessly commercial flowers all day. Thats what I love about your channel. I wish you stay always this way, with your growing success, never change.

  • @lesmar234
    You are awesome. One of my favorite gardeners on you tube. I'm in zone 7 DE. Thanks for sharing.
  • @pamd1861
    Thanks Danielle! This is exactly what I was waiting for. Only thing is all my beds have a thick layer of mulch so I'll have move it away to plant the seeds. Hope it works 🙏
  • @sgg17003
    Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Also in southern part of PA.
  • @KyLinda
    thank you so much.. I've been so nervous about this, my first cool flower season .. I took notes.. I found my seeds.. and I'm on my way outside! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you!
  • @allisonsnz
    Mulching between rows is such a great idea - I'll be trying it this fall.
