Hitting the ground running in April and May:Daffodils, anemones, ranunculus, tulips, snapdragons, and lilies
Thousands of daffodils can be grown in areas unused by summer crops; we focus onlate-blooming, sturdy varieties such as this ‘Camelot’. Pull, don’t cut, for long stems.
‘Marieke’ and ‘Unsurpassable’Lift and divide daffodils after 5-6 years, otherwise production slows5-9 rows/4’ bed, 5-6” in row spacing
Anemone Galilee or Marianne seriesPlanted early Dec.-early Jan in unheated hoophouseFlowering March to mid-May
Anemones must be pre-treated by soaking for 24 hrs,packed in barely moist soil media, then chilled for 3 weeksin refrigerator. Corms can then be directly planted to beds orgrown to transplant size in 50-cell containers in greenhouse.
4/12
High value winter-planted anemone for early spring salesPlanted November-January, harvest Feb-May
To a We plant tulips 5 rows per bed, 3” apart in row. Bulbs are laid out at correct spacing and troweled-in to a depth of 4”
Planting season late October to early DecemberDripping Springs method: 5 rows per 4’ bed, 3-6” between bulbs, mulchedSome growers use 1’ deep trenches, bulbs spaced 1” apart in all directionsDeep trench promotes long stem formation. Cost $.18-40 each + shippingUsually no weeding necessary in fall-mulched tulip beds
Tulips may require harvesting morning and eveningin warm weather to catch at proper stage for cold storageHarvest with bulbs attached for longest storage
4/3
Tulips prepared for market with bulbs removed, sleeved in bunches.First stored in floral solution at room or warmer temp until desired stageof opening for local markets, then replaced in cooler until delivery.
Snapdragons
Our earliest snaps bloom in April from October seeding, transplanted in December.Potomac Series yellow, ivory, red, dark orange, pink, royal. Require two layers of support netting, minimum!
June flowering of Potomac snaps Seeding late October in heated greenhouseTransplanted mid-late February to unheated hoophouse
June snap bloom from early March planting in unheated hoophouse1st succession: heated greenhouse, plant Dec., blooms April-May2nd and 3rd successions: unheated hoophouses, plant early and late Marchfor blooms June-early July
After danger of frost has passed, lily production moves into unheated hoophouse with 30-50% shadecloth to prevent tip burn, promote stem length,and prevent lily botrytis
Crate media mix: (1) 3.8 cu ft bale Sunshine #2, 2 g compost, 6c granulated poultry litter (or 3c feathermeal).
Outdoor bed planting of lilies is possible, but can be prone to botrytis infection, especially in rainy weather and in perennial plantings
Late-season lily production continues after frost until Christmas or later in heated greenhouse. Asiatics and Asi-florumsperform better than orientals when days are short and temps cool
Sweet William (Dianthus barbatus) biennialSown mid-June, planted mid-July to early August for the next year’s mid-May bloom
Dutch iris late May bloom, from mid-February to mid-March plantingof treated (prechilled) bulbs. Can be planted in fall like tulips, but spring frostscan damage flowers before bloom if bloom is early
Lisianthus are received in late February as 288 plugs, bumped up to 50 cell trays on arrival, and transplanted to unheatedhoophouse mid-March
6/5
5 rows per 4’ bed, 6” apart in rowTrenches fertilized prior to plantingCost: #1 size, approx $.12ea
Gladiolus mulched with straw immediately after plantingand placement of drip tape; plants emerge through straw
Begin plantings 1 month prior to last frostContinue weekly through early-mid July for steady supplyOverwintering glads bloom earliest, but all at onceBulbs allowed to remain in same bed for two years before replacement
Inexpensive to produce and extremely productive, zinnias figureprominently in our summer market displays
Zinnias can be direct seeded or planted as transplants. We use162 or 128-cell winstrip trays and transplant through fabric orplastic mulch film using 4 rows, 6” in-row spacing (4’ beds)
Succession-plant zinnias to keep quality and volume highfor our market and zone 6b, we target 5/1, 6/1, and 7/1 for planting
Sunflowers can be direct seeded or transplanted; we primarily usetransplants (128 cell). Planted 4 rows/bed, 6” in row for bouquets andsingle-stem sales. Plant every two weeks for steady supply.
Last sunflower crop transplanted early September to unheated hoophouse.Timed to produce after killing frost outdoors.
We start celosias (both cockscomb and plumosa types)in 128 cell trays, transpanted 4 rows, 6” in row in 4’ bedCockscomb types are best netted
Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa)incredibly fragrantBloom late July, August, Sept.Must be dug and stored in winter north of zone 6bMultiply rapidly
Planting tuberose clumps through black plastic-or plant on bare soil, mulch moderately with straw before emergence

Garden Section map created usingtext boxes. Each box represents a 4’ wide planting bed; because of slope and contour on this site, beds range from 50’ to 275’ long. All beds have been measured, with length displayed on map for planning purposes. Beds are numbered from bottom to top of hill. On flat ground, standard bed length is preferable.
