Cutting Flowers During A Very Rainy Summer

​ @cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm Growing cut flowers in Scotland, zone 8b.

So we all dream of sunny warm summer days but some years that just doesn't happen! We did get a dry sunny June but as soon as the school holidays started the rain set in and July it just rained everyday. August has not been much better! A little more settled with some dry spells but still a lot of rain. Cutting flowers in the rain is hard. Water can damage some of the fragile petals and it's difficult to make sure your flowers are the top quality you want them to be going to customers and florists. Here is what I do to work around all that rain and still get some lovely flowers cut.
