Cut flower gardens provide flowers for endless bouquets and arrangements. There is no one formula for a cut flower garden just like there isn’t one way to build a flower arrangement. Feel free to be creative. Almost any plant can work in a cut flower garden, simply fill a garden with flowers that you love and enjoy them both in the garden and as cut flowers. But don’t forget to include some foliage plants to use as accents in arrangements! Below are a list of plants at Hook’s that we recommend for cut flowers.
