    Hi Niall. Oh man, what a great surprise, seeing Kevin from @epicgardening show up in your video. Both of us are in California. I've been one of his subscribers for a bit now. He's a little bit south of me as I"m in Los Angeles. It's always a treat seeing Liz! 🙂 Love when the two of you chat back and forth with one another when you're together. Thank you for another awesome video Niall. Take care.

    Bought my house last year, already removed 2 barrels of Vinca thats spread allover the front garden.
    It climbs in other plants too.
    I'd almost say 'it spreads like mint', but mint is still a wee bit worse.

    Fantastic video, Niall, so much I could say. Lots of great recommendations. Got my periwinkle, white from my mum,she is no longer with us, so it's here in my garden, ha ha, it never dissappears.
    Thanks so much, and enjoy today's sunshine.

    USDA Zone 8, looking into my garden now:
    1. Zinnia ✔
    2. Peppers ✔
    3. Alyssum instead of Vinca
    4. Look at that breathtaking orange shrub 😍🤩!!
    5. Long beans and flat beans
    Thanks for the Video Niall 😊

    I would only purchase Berberis as a gift for a not well liked person: the thorns, the endless cutting back. Perfect as a privacyhedge though 😂

    Jimmy Nardello peppers are my favorite pepper. No diseases or pests, great yield and flavor, and you can prune it to your heart's desire! I pruned one to look like a tree on the plains of Africa, super tall and umbrella-like at the top. Grow some Jimmies!!

    *wince* I love your guests, but... vinca?!? Nooooo! I have been battling the periwinkle (vinca major) vines that the prior owner planted since I moved into my home 7 years ago. By battling, I'm talking about literally digging up beds, and sifting out the numerous roots of this pernicious, aggressive vine. It's still growing back. The roots go a foot deep, by the way (I'm in zone 7 with clay soils). It's also coming up as seedlings everywhere around the property, as is the wisteria vine that the prior owner allowed to escape the garden.
    Invasive, tenacious vines are such a nuisance! Vinca will sneak in under your other plants where you won't even see it growing for months, until it suddenly mounds up to smother your desired plants.
    Please, please don't plant this menace.

  • @StephenSmith-ge1qf
    @StephenSmith-ge1qf Год назад

    Unless you want a lifetime of digging stuff up, stick to Vinca Minor. Much smaller and less invasive. And, in my humble opinion, much prettier.
