experiences of my flower life

43
00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:44,233
was the day I visited a field of

44
00:01:42,166 --> 00:01:44,233

45
00:01:44,466 --> 00:01:50,333

incredible fragrance.

can do with a beautiful bunch of

112
00:03:53,300 --> 00:04:02,466
stock.

113
00:03:53,866 --> 00:04:04,700
♪

114
00:03:59,333 --> 00:04:06,500
We'll cut this at a nice

115
00:04:02,466 --> 00:04:08,233
45-degree angle.

116
00:04:04,700 --> 00:04:09,833
The great reason that we want to

117
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:11,400
do that is because when we put

118
00:04:08,233 --> 00:04:13,833
it into the vase, it's gonna

119
00:04:09,833 --> 00:04:15,966
leave room for the water to

120
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:17,933
travel up inside the stem.

121
00:04:13,833 --> 00:04:19,666
The other thing we want to do is

122
00:04:15,966 --> 00:04:21,833
remove any foliage that might

123
00:04:17,933 --> 00:04:24,333
fall below the waterline.

124
00:04:19,666 --> 00:04:26,133
So pulling off those extra

125
00:04:21,833 --> 00:04:27,800
pieces of foliage is important.

126
00:04:24,333 --> 00:04:29,400
We want to leave some foliage at

127
00:04:26,133 --> 00:04:31,066
the top too, because it's the

128
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:34,866
foliage that helps bring the

129
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:36,400
water up the stem and hydrate

130
00:04:31,066 --> 00:04:37,133
the flower.

131
00:04:34,866 --> 00:04:39,666
We'll cut that and place it into

132
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:41,900
the water.

133
00:04:37,133 --> 00:04:44,500
Notice that my leaves are well

134
00:04:39,666 --> 00:04:49,266
above the waterline and my

135
00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:52,266
arrangement is sticking outside

136
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:55,533
of the vase.

137
00:04:49,266 --> 00:04:56,766
Now, with a smaller vase like

138
00:04:52,266 --> 00:04:58,666
this, we can add four or five or

139
00:04:55,533 --> 00:05:00,166
six stems.

140
00:04:56,766 --> 00:05:02,033
With the six that I have here,

141
00:04:58,666 --> 00:05:04,166
that's very striking.

142
00:05:00,166 --> 00:05:06,066
I could actually even add a

143
00:05:02,033 --> 00:05:07,233
seventh right in the center, and

144
00:05:04,166 --> 00:05:09,033
that's going to fill out the

145
00:05:06,066 --> 00:05:10,933
vase perfectly.

146
00:05:07,233 --> 00:05:13,600
The other stems that I have

147
00:05:09,033 --> 00:05:15,366
could be used short in a vase

148
00:05:10,933 --> 00:05:21,533
like this.

149
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:23,333
Again, we're gonna pull off the

150
00:05:15,366 --> 00:05:25,300
leaves and give it a short cut.

151
00:05:21,533 --> 00:05:26,433
You'll notice that I'm gonna

152
00:05:23,333 --> 00:05:28,600
cross this vase with the flower

153
00:05:25,300 --> 00:05:31,066
stems.

154
00:05:26,433 --> 00:05:33,000
That way, the stem and the

155
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:35,133
flower help balance the flower

156
00:05:31,066 --> 00:05:36,933
into the vase.

157
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,866
Or we could use an entire bunch

158
00:05:35,133 --> 00:05:40,766
in a vase like this.

159
00:05:36,933 --> 00:05:42,766

room for water at the bottom,

163
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:53,333

164
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:59,333

Let's look at a couple more

169
00:06:02,933 --> 00:06:08,833
ideas that you can do with a

170
00:06:04,533 --> 00:06:09,533
10-stem bunch of stock.

171
00:06:06,633 --> 00:06:10,833
Our first one is created in

172
00:06:08,833 --> 00:06:12,000
foam.

173
00:06:09,533 --> 00:06:12,733
Now, a lot of people get scared

174
00:06:10,833 --> 00:06:13,966
when we start to talk about

175
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,566
foam.

176
00:06:12,733 --> 00:06:15,966
But this is a great little

177
00:06:13,966 --> 00:06:16,700
container.

178
00:06:14,566 --> 00:06:18,233
It already has a piece of foam

179
00:06:15,966 --> 00:06:19,500
ready inside.

180
00:06:16,700 --> 00:06:20,833
And there's room around the

181
00:06:18,233 --> 00:06:21,966
outside to hold water.

182
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:24,366
It's the perfect thing for

183
00:06:20,833 --> 00:06:27,333
making a quick little

184
00:06:21,966 --> 00:06:29,033
arrangement for your table.

185
00:06:24,366 --> 00:06:31,366
First, we soak it, and then we

186
00:06:27,333 --> 00:06:33,433
bevel the foam.

187
00:06:29,033 --> 00:06:35,066
So I laid this into a vase of

188
00:06:31,366 --> 00:06:37,033
flower-nutrient water and

189
00:06:33,433 --> 00:06:38,766
allowed it to soak.

190
00:06:35,066 --> 00:06:40,333
It takes about a minute or so,

191
00:06:37,033 --> 00:06:42,000
and then it's ready to go.

192
00:06:38,766 --> 00:06:43,233
Don't hold it underwater.

193
00:06:40,333 --> 00:06:45,466
Just allow it to float-soak

194
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:48,200
naturally.

195
00:06:43,233 --> 00:06:50,233
So in this case, we're gonna cut

196

understand is -- and we don't

388
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:45,166

389
00:12:43,566 --> 00:12:45,700
>> Right.

390
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,633
>> So, now we're specifically in

391
00:12:45,166 --> 00:12:47,066
snapdragons.

392
00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:48,000
>> These are my favorite,

393
00:12:46,633 --> 00:12:48,833

395
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,033
>> I love snapdragons.

396
00:12:48,833 --> 00:12:53,633
>> And you plant them -- you

397
00:12:50,333 --> 00:12:55,166
plant a section, so this section

398
00:12:52,033 --> 00:12:56,866
is coming into color, and then

399
00:12:53,633 --> 00:12:57,366
there's one next door that's

400
00:12:55,166 --> 00:12:58,000
gonna be in color in like a week

401
00:12:56,866 --> 00:12:59,666
or so?

402
00:12:57,366 --> 00:13:00,200
>> Right.

403
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,766
>> And they're staggered every

404
00:12:59,666 --> 00:13:02,066
week.

405
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,000
>> Yes.

406
00:13:00,766 --> 00:13:06,033
That way we don't have

407
00:13:02,066 --> 00:13:06,733
20 different houses bloomed up

408
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,766
and then we're just flushed with

409
00:13:06,033 --> 00:13:10,566
product.

410
00:13:06,733 --> 00:13:11,500
So we have a nice consistent

411
00:13:08,766 --> 00:13:12,600
flow of snaps available.

412
00:13:10,566 --> 00:13:13,666
>> Do the colors change?

413
00:13:11,500 --> 00:13:14,833
Do you have them plotted that

414
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,666
way so that you're different

415
00:13:13,666 --> 00:13:17,833
colors different times of year?

416
00:13:14,833 --> 00:13:19,833
>> Right.

417
00:13:15,666 --> 00:13:21,233
So the oranges will be coming up

418
00:13:17,833 --> 00:13:22,466
soon for the fall, whites for

419
00:13:19,833 --> 00:13:23,900
Christmas, reds for

420
00:13:21,233 --> 00:13:24,466
Valentine's Day.

421
00:13:22,466 --> 00:13:25,600
So they do change with the

422
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:26,700
season.

423
00:13:24,466 --> 00:13:27,833
>> And so my grandpa, his name

424
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,966
was "Carnation" Joe Green, but

425
00:13:26,700 --> 00:13:30,100
he was always telling stories,

426
00:13:27,833 --> 00:13:31,200
and he would go through there.

427
00:13:28,966 --> 00:13:32,333
But the thing that he taught us

428
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:33,433
was how, like, they can talk.

429
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,766
And so we would always get the

430
00:13:32,333 --> 00:13:34,900
snapdragons and we'd have them

431
00:13:33,433 --> 00:13:36,266
talk.

432
00:13:33,766 --> 00:13:37,500
And then my sisters -- my

433
00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:38,833
sisters put them on as earrings.

434
00:13:36,266 --> 00:13:40,100
They could put them on as an

435
00:13:37,500 --> 00:13:41,366
earring and do stuff like that.

436
00:13:38,833 --> 00:13:42,466
But that's the other reason I

437
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:43,066
love them is they look like a

438
00:13:41,366 --> 00:13:44,166
little talking, you know,

439
00:13:42,466 --> 00:13:44,700
snapdragon.

440
00:13:43,066 --> 00:13:45,833
So, in Spanish, what do they

441
00:13:44,166 --> 00:13:46,766
call these?

442
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:48,100
>> They call these  perritos.

443
00:13:45,833 --> 00:13:48,666
>> What does that mean?

444
00:13:46,766 --> 00:13:50,566
>> That means the plant is

445
00:13:48,100 --> 00:13:51,800
barking.

446
00:13:48,666 --> 00:13:54,666
So when you squeeze it together

447
00:13:50,566 --> 00:13:57,000
like that, it's...

448
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:58,766
>> [ Barking ]

449
00:13:54,666 --> 00:13:59,633

450
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,866

00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:07,566
