Sylvie  { farmer ⋆ florist } on Instagram: "Our gomphrena (aka. globe amaranth) is insane this season with the longest stems we’ve ever had.

Here’s how we grow ours with a few tips ✨🌸

✿ We start our seeds indoors and transplant seedlings out in the field in late spring 🌿

✿ When they start blooming and plants are still tiny, we remove blooms to encourage plant growth which also acts as pinching 

✿ Once plants grow and bloom but lack stem length, leave them be! Give them a couple weeks to grow taller in height before cutting ✂️ 

✿ Use the ‘wiggle test’ to be sure stems are ripe before harvesting, otherwise gomphrena will wilt in the vase!

Gomphrena is one of our favourite textural flowers to grow. Do you love it? 🌸
