Flower farmers are the Top Chefs of the gardening world, with dedicated social media channels and hundreds of thousands of avid fans who dream about the lifestyle and of having a lush cutting garden of their own. Today’s gardeners follow celebrity growers to gather ideas and expert advice regarding planting techniques and the best varieties and seasonal plants to choose.

The Flower Farmers presents a curated group of favorite growers, from industry leaders to pioneering newcomers. Each grower shares their specialty knowledge and seasonal practices so that readers will be able to create a similar relationship with flowers and discover sustainable techniques for their own gardens.
