Flower Kits

What Are They?

Meet our Flower Kits: thoughtfully curated, season-specific collections of over 40 organically grown starter plants in a cohesive romantic palette — designed to help you grow market-style bouquets right in your own backyard. Every kit is crafted to thrive in a standard 4ft × 8ft garden bed yet can be tucked wherever you have full sun. We’ve selected exclusive flower farmer varieties bred for long stems and exceptional vase life, and we pre-pinch plants so they branch early and produce more blooms. Each kit includes a step-by-step growing guide, snapshot growing guide, and a suggested bed layout. Because the plants are starts, they’re super easy to plant — just set, water, and care and you’ll be cutting beautiful bouquets all season long.

What people are saying about our kits!

Just purchased my THIRD flower kit!

I am having the absolute best time with the flower kits! I was honestly a little scared at first, but Amanda held my hand every step of the way and made the whole process feel easy and FUN! Just purchased my THIRD flower kit!

My girls and I have completely fallen in love with the experience. It’s become such a special part of our routine and gives us the perfect excuse to get outside and spend meaningful time together.

I’m so grateful for the guidance, encouragement, and JOY these kits have brought into our home. Highly recommend!

The flower kit was so productive!

I bought a spring cut flower garden kit from Elm Creek Flower Farm and honestly couldn’t have had a better experience. I was interested originally because I garden in a small space in my front yard, and was unable to find the varieties I want in small quantities. Everything was thoughtfully put together in such beautiful colors that are very hard to find in my area! The quality of the plants was beautiful, and the clear instructions made it feel totally doable even for someone who isn’t a professional gardener. What surprised me the most was just how productive the kit was. I’ve been able to cut such beautiful flowers in any small 8 foot garden bed! There’s something really special about walking outside and gathering your own bouquet.
You can tell so much care and knowledge went into designing the kit. If you’ve ever wanted a cut flower garden but didn’t know where to start, this is such a wonderful way to do it.

I am loving my Spring Flower Kit, and I am looking forward to getting my summer one next! The kit made organizing and planting my flower beds incredibly easy. Everything was thoughtfully prepared, and I appreciated the step-by-step tips for soil prep, planting, and caring for my new flowers.  I am excited to enjoy these beautiful flowers for months to come!

So easy to plant — even at 69!

At 69 years old, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy Elm Creek’s flower kit was to plant. The plants are small upon arrival and the layout is already planned for you, so it took me only about 30 minutes from start to finish. The growing guide made everything very straightforward.

The flower selection and color palette were beautiful, and the plants produced so many blooms all season. I was able to make and gift bouquets to friends and family. Such a wonderful experience and I’m already looking forward to planting another kit!!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • $175 per kit — over $3 per plant. This reflects the real cost of seeds, soil, water, organic fertilizer, our time growing and pinching, custom packaging, and the guides we include.

  • Kits are seasonal and timed for planting -- you will receive a shipping notification once they are shipped.

    • Spring Flower Kits (fall-planted) ship late October

    • Summer Flower Kits ship early April

  • Absolutely. We choose easy, reliable varieties and include a step-by-step growing guide plus a snapshot quick sheet. Need help? Message us anytime during the season.

  • Yes. We offer two self-serve pickup days in October (Spring kits) and April (Summer kits). Your order will be boxed and labeled with your name.

  • Flat-rate $30 per kit. These are live plants netted in heavy, protective boxes that need to arrive quickly; we don’t pad shipping costs.

  • Prep your planting area:

    • Clear weeds and set up irrigation

    • Amend soil with organic compost and a slow-release organic fertilizer

    • After planting, we recommend organic Sluggo around the bed to discourage insects from eating your baby plants, they love tender young plants.

  • 47 organically grown starter plants in soft, romantic colors, a detailed growing guide, a snapshot quick guide, and a suggested 4×8 layout—just plant, care, and enjoy bouquets all season long.

  • No. Kits are designed to fill a standard 4×8 bed, but you can plant anywhere with sun—beds, borders, or tucked-in spots. Just follow spacing and be mindful of plant heights if you don’t use the suggested layout.

  • Yes and no. Some staples will always be included like, ranunculus, anemones in the spring kits and dahlias and zinnias in the summer kits, but we do add new varieties each year.

  • Starting summer 2026, we will offer kits for smaller garden beds -- 4 ft X 4ft.

  • Both. Some varieties are true perennials (return each year), some are annuals, and a few may reseed.

  • Yes — with a little extra care. Spring kits can be overwintered using frost cloth and diligence. Plant in well-drained soil, then during freezes cover plants with frost cloth on hoops or some other structure (not plastic on foliage). As a general guide, many plants in the kit are fine to around 25°F uncovered; below that, cover. For prolonged cold snaps, keep cloth on, vent on sunny days, and water normally (avoid overwatering in winter). A light mulch around the base and a south-facing spot or raised bed adds protection. We cover overwintering in detail in the included growing guide.

  • Typically 8–10 weeks old — robust, garden-ready, and pre-pinched for branching and more blooms.

  • We do not offer refunds. If your kit arrives damaged in transit, please file a claim with the carrier (USPS or UPS); shipping includes insurance. Because these are live plants, the buyer assumes all liability once delivered—we can’t be responsible for growing conditions or outcomes. That said, we’re here for you every step of the way: if something looks off when your plants arrive, take clear photos the same day and message us. We’ll review and work with you to get things right.
