I'm a lazy gardener – the easy way to get buckets full of cut flowers with just minutes of work

A FLOWER garden is a sure way to instantly add some curb appeal to your home.

But for those without a green thumb, it could seem like a bit too much work.


However, one home expert proved that you can get a lovely flower garden in just a few steps.

Home designer Katie Pellegrino shared in a video how to easily grow a cut flower garden in time for the summer.

She suggested: "Zinnia's are hands down one of the easiest flowers to grow and you can grab them in these bags that come with fertilizer.

"You rake up the ground a little bit, sprinkle it on. A couple of weeks you'll have these sprouts."

Pellegrino then said that later in the summer, you should have a ton of blooming flowers.

She herself had so many fresh flowers, she made buckets full of arrangements.

Pellegrino also said the zinnia flowers will last well into fall.

In the video's caption, Pellegrino wrote that the zinnia flowers "grow so well even in bad soil," and added: "you can also grab 'cut and come' varieties that keep coming even after you cut them!"
