    Erin, Have you ever been told Green is your color? Your eyes sparkle in this green sweater.

    Thank you for putting together this video. I really think it is important to share not only what's new, but also follow-up, talking about how those new plants actually performed over at least a 3 year period in residential landscapes... I really would consider doing more of these kinds of videos, highlighting plants that not only look amazing but actually perform, 4-season, and can put up with just about anything.

    I bought a few Prince Tut last year. They were so cute in their small growers pots at 14" tall. I planted them in 12" containers and holy smokes did they take off, which was great, as I found myself adding a few stems to most flower arrangements I made. This plant was so impressive that I decided to overwinter them by sinking the pots in large plastic storage bins and maintaining 2" of water at the bottom of the bin. So far so good. I didn't want to be without these this summer!

    I can't say enough about Spirea. Everyone that sees it in my garden beds wants to know what it is, it's so common yet uncommon. Lot's of different colors as well. Nice back of the border small shrub.

  • @amydeeds6248
    @amydeeds6248 2 года назад

    I used Prince Tut as a thriller last year in my front porch pots. It was an experiment because my house faces north and only a little direct light in the morning. They did great! Planted them with supertunua vista bubblegum, vista white, and bacopa. Didn’t pull them until October. We also used them in our subdivision’s pots which are in full sun and no drip. They turned crispy in August, definitely need consistent watering here in Michigan lol. Great info ☺️

  • @emkn1479
    @emkn1479 2 года назад +4

    I found some King Tut on clearance last year and boy, did they recover. They grew in containers and towered over everyone and everything. So impressive. I’m actually overwintering them successfully (ATM) and am going to give them even more space next year. Love them! And I started little bluestem from seed to add to a field we’re hoping to naturalize. They were gorgeous, even on a tiny scale. (Happy to see Fergus 💚)

    • @videoability1
      @videoability1 2 года назад +1

      I too found King Tut on clearance in July and planted them in one large container with white Diamond Euphorbia around them. Wow... they grew 3 feet tall and neighbors stopped to ask what they were. I cut off each dried flower head and tucked them into my Christmas tree in December! That bargain went a long way!
      Erin's video here was very helpful and well thought out... great info details!

    I just watched your “live” post when you were enjoying the gin and elderflower tonic…….my favorite drink too, I’m crazy about Grey Whale Gin. If you haven’t had it yet try it! Of course a squeeze of lime too😀
    I’m a gardener in Southeast Michigan along the St.Clair River. They say zone 6a. I’m sticking with zone 5…anyway I am so excited to have found you and Laura. We live on 20 acres so I have lots of room and lots of deer…I have a hoop house I heat all winter and start my seeds out there as well. I over winter my “big girls” in there, which makes it possible for me to survive the winter!. It’s refreshing to know there are people crazy about gardening like me out there!

    Erin, thanks for the video. I think I am going to try the hydrangea you featured in a container this year. I loved the pictures of your garden-so nice on a winter day. As an aside, I am glad kitty got some air time-Otis & Dorothy usually steal the show (yes, they are adorable, but so is kitty).

    Ok, I went out and bought LOTS of flower seed packets today! Many colors and sizes of poppies, zinnias, and many more. Now to be patient til mid- end of March to scatter the poppy seeds. You inspired me to try poppies, I hope they like it here in W Michigan.

    @dawnmitchell11 2 года назад

    I purchased the Peachy Keen verbena last year! One of my best plant purchases! Very vigorous, despite my 8b central Texas zone! The ones in pots did better than the ones in the ground (sticky clay soil). We had pretty mild weather through December, they were still going strong! I pruned and divided them, all 10 made it through the winter in their cans! I originally bought 4 pint size can plants. 😯 I'm able to share with friends now!

    Great video, especially on this snowy day we are having here in Illinois. This will be the year I plan on getting some mountainmint plants, if I can find some. I happened to plant a Little Quick Fire last Summer, love the lacey flowers on it. I had Verbena Meteor Shower in my garden last year, fabulous! This Spring I will try another Verbena Rigida called Polaris, from seed. Hopefully I can grow some.

    Thank you for this Erin! I just added some new things to my list, like Prince Tut and Mountain Mint. I was excited to hear you say that about Spirea, I bought one last year, that probably gets more shade than it should but it was so beautiful with the multi color blooms. They of course start with tiny green buds which are also pretty and they bloom with a bright pink and yellow mix. I have never tried them before and now I’m hooked. I’m happy to know they are better performers these days. I didn’t know anything about them before last year. I’m so excited for Spring I can hardly stand it!

They have strong sturdy stems, lots of blooms, rich green foliage and the fall colour is beautiful. Mine get full morning sun and afternoon shade and they thrive. I plan to add Little Blue Stem grass this spring….I love that it’s native and has great colour. Not plant related, but need to mention how fabulous your green sweater is….looks wonderful on you! 💚
