  • This week we were lucky enough to visit a private garden at the very top of Mount Macedon full of rare and wonderful cool climate plants. But at this time of year the autumn foliage is just off the dial!! And there are several quite rare plants for Australia that are showing their true, amazing, colours right now in this collectors paradise! So in this video we'll be looking at eight different plants from magnificent trees to creepers, from perennials to shrubs, all of which have the most extraordinary colour at the moment. Many thanks to Kevin and Chris for letting us roam around amidst all this beauty!
    The plants we cover in this episode are:
    Berberis thunbergii Helmond Pillar
    Fothergilla major
    Fothergilla gardenii
    Neillia tanakae
    Larix decidua
    Lindera obtusiloba
    Hosta
    Hydrangea petiolaris
    Disanthus cercidifolius

    Great choice of autumn colored shrubs. I love the cones on the Larix as well as the autumn colour. The lindera Obtusiloba looks stunning. Thank you.

    The very top of Mount Macedon must have a very similar climate to ours here on southern Vancouver Island! We have most of the plants in our garden mentioned in this beautifully structured and gently maintained garden. If Kevin and Chris don’t already have a Parrotia Perscia or two tucked away some where it would be a great addition to their garden.

      They do have Parrotia but it wasn’t at its best. Regards Stephen

      Beautiful garden. Can you take cuttings off the climbing hydrangea?

      "very similar climate to ours here on southern Vancouver Island! "
      It's still quite a bit milder. Top of Mt. Macedon is probably USDA zone 9b, and the all-time record low is -8.3C/17F. (That's quite cold by Australian standards, of course.) Victoria, BC's all time record low is -15.5 C/3F.

    That is an absolutely beautiful garden. I love the fall colors, we are now just coming into spring and starting our gardens here in Canada.

    Wonderful! Pity the Lindera is so tricky to grow.

    Beautiful! The foliage of the Lindera obtusiloba reminds me of sassafras.

    Lovely garden! A good fall color shrub in zone eight here in NW Florida is Viburnum luzonicum.

    With summer setting in here in the southern US I will be spending much more time in the house instead of the garden watching your videos and dreaming of Fall 🙂Keep up the good work!

      @@thehorti-culturalists It is, but I'm too old and fat to do much gardening when it's as hot as the face of the sun and 100% humidity. So I dream of climates such as the mild parts of Australia, NZ and UK 🙂

    I liked a lot this video. Wrote down some of the names. I had difficulty last night finding Neillia Tanakae. Things that were coming up did not look the same like your picture. Will search by the old name. I have a question for you in regards to azalea bushes. I have a pair of old ones( 20 years older or so) , and not sure how deep I should trim them. now that the flowers are almost spent. How deep can I go down to trim them?

    • @thehorti-culturalists
      @thehorti-culturalists  2 месяца назад +1

      you can cut them very hard if you want to but unless they are to big or out of shape they can be left alone. Regards Stephen

    Hello ragazzi, found a trumpet vine volunteer amongst my dahlias and want to keep it for hummingbirds. It was tiny. I put it in a big pot by a fence and it’s extremely vigorous and about six feet tall with many canes. Will I be able to control it? I’m on Long Island, zone 7.

      It is a matter of regular management with all things, so why not. Regards Stephen
