So consider starting a cut flower business from your backyard or field. I know people who just leave a bolted down money box out on the stand and every day find their bouquets bought and paid for without a hitch. Consider a U-Pick flower field. I wrote about Nancy Grandee and her family in Oregon, who put in just such a field a few years ago and has done very well with it. We visited there again recently and found that she had increased the flowers more and more, reducing the vegetable growing space every year as she gets more and more business from flowers.
Tourists flock there to pick from and admire the fields of flowers.
Even town retail florists make the drive out to the U-Pick as they can save a lot of money by picking their own. All are interested in purchasing bouquets. Your local florist will probably be delighted to buy your fresh garden flowers. So will the wholesale florist supply house in your closest big city. Choosing the right varieties, learning to grow them well and then how to condition them so they will last a long time, are the only real requirements for succeeding at this business.
