Thanks everyone.
The more I've thought about growing flowers mainly for cutting, the more I'm convinced I can't do it!! However, I have a cunning plan, one that I can do without too much soul searching................
I'm going to become a Florager - a word I've made up for a "Flower Forager".
Whilst foraging around the garden for edible stuff I'll also forage for flowers, picking a few flowers but only the ones that the garden can spare - not the flowers that are enjoyed by wildlife or needed for seed saving.
I'll still grow more flowers but won't be picking any that have a single flower - like sunflowers and tulips, they're to be enjoyed outdoors.
