Show Notes

We are starting off our new season with Julia Keel, co-owner of Full Keel Farm in north central Florida. Julia brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to the table as she specializes in cultivating specialty cut flowers while navigating the unique challenges of a hot and humid climate. She's passionate about teaching, has presented and lectured at national conferences, and truly embraces the challenge of adapting production methods to Florida's climate.

This week, Julia shares techniques she uses like paper pot planters and releasing beneficial insects and other insights as a flower farmer that she hopes will help other growers in their own flower journey. Julia also shares about her expansion on their new property and we dive into growing spray larkspur, didiscus, and delphinium in her climate. Maybe a flower farm isn't your first thought when you think of Florida but it's a different kind of Florida fun and beauty and it all starts now on The Flower Podcast.
