Final Touches For Cut Flowers To Be Ready For Spring
At the coming of spring, mulching down overgrowth in the cut flower areas improves bloom. Materials chop-n-drop to feed the soil. Because there are so many flower bulbs, tillage is not an option. I use a BCS tractor with a 30” flail mower to quickly work for this cut flower bed.
If you are growing cut flowers for the market, this may not be the most effective way to manage your beds. Most cut flowers can be grown in rows. However, this cut flower bed is on a slope and interplanted with cover crops.
Bulbs in this bed will be dug up after a few years to propagate. Adding mulch will reduce the need for winter or early spring mowing. Use wood chips or straw to layer over the area after mowing to minimize competition for cut flowers.
Why would we grow this way when we know better ways? Because there is no better time to plant bulbs for cut flowers. Waiting another year for the perfect planting location, method, or management deprives us of color. If soil conditions and light are correct, then most bulbs grow anywhere.
