How I produce over 5000 bouquets/year on less than 1/2 an acre.

People are always expecting me to say that I grow on 5 acres or whatever, and they're shocked when I produce this many flowers on such a small space. The secret: succession planting and crop rotation. Knowing exactly the days to maturity and getting multiple harvests from the same ground. Maybe it's flowers that produce all summer long, or it's flowers that are finished early summer and can be replaced by another flower (like a sunflower) that can bloom 50 days from planting.
