    I have a playlist called foundation plants that has 152 videos that I have done for plants that will work on a foundation. I linked it in the description. I said Purple Daydream instead of Purple Diamond at one point in the video. It happens. Thanks for watching.

      Jim, thank you for this video! I have a completely bare foundation and this is exactly what I needed! You anticipate what new gardeners need and make corresponding videos - which I really appreciate. Thank you for your expertise, time and effort!

    It would be fantastic if you were to do some of these types of videos at a nursery farther north so we could see screening or foundation plants that would be hardy in colder climates.

    Thanks so much for this type video. I watch the entire video, find plants that I want in my landscape, then go back and take a snapshot of those where you have included the name. I then take that to my garden center. Works great!

    Just purchased new construction in zone 9. House is on a corner lot with only poorly sodded Bahia. Where some might be daunted, I only see a blank canvas.
    The information you provide will be very handy. 👍

    Thanks for adding some plant choices that are non toxic to horses. Living in an equestrian subdivision, these types of plants are the only ones I should have in my landscape. I live in Aiken SC zone 8 so I like to follow your channel.

    I regret not buying some azaleas early in the spring, I literally cannot find them anywhere right now and feel like I'm going to be missing out on these gorgeous blooms

  • @joncrunk598

    I think most of my foundation plants made this list! My favorite are Autumn Chiffon Encore Azalea and Lemon Lime Nandina. The builder put in the Helleri Holly, and I’ve moved them several times. They are pretty easy to take care of.

  • @Ellie-yx8ni
    @Ellie-yx8ni 4 года назад +3

    Thank you Jim. So happy I discovered your channel. Moved to SC from NS, Canada where summers are very short and cool. Couldn't put anything in the ground before June 1 and sometimes closer to July before frost risk is gone. Gardening for over 20 years, but I have so much to learn about plants here in the south. So exciting all the new options! :) Your videos are super helpful! Cheers!

    I have lots of Nandinas. It’s a perfect plant to fill space without being invasive. I also planted Dwarf Purple Pixie for a small dose of the beauty Loropetalum brings. My faves are my Autumn Embers and Autumn Sunburst Azaleas. I love that they bloom both Spring and Fall.

    Jim, living in Bama I am searching for plants to plant this fall. There is absolutely nothing out there, big box stores are wiped out, my local nursery’s are wiped out. Can I order from Southern Living or should I just go back to Plants by Mail ? Also, I am looking to plant Elephant Ears in full sun what do you suggest, was hoping for bulbs.

    Can August Beauty survive zone 7b winters? At the garden center the winter hardiness shows as 30°F but it can definitely get colder in zone 7b Ga.
    I have about 10 azaleas and they get lace bugs every year, is there a way to manage without systemic insecticide?

  • @mplslawnguy3389
    @mplslawnguy3389 4 года назад +1

    I see a lot of extensions discouraging people from planting barberry as the birds spread the seeds into natural areas. Its supposed to be very aggressive and displaces a lot of native vegetation. For that reason I have avoided it but its such a popular plant in garden centers and does look nice. People are going to buy whatever they like regardless, but I think garden centers could maybe do a little better job of stopping the sale of these kinds of plants. Burning bush is another one with the same problem. Not trying to be preachy, do whatever you want on your property but its something to think about.

    • @ejohnson3131
      @ejohnson3131 4 года назад +2

      I used to think the same thing, but it's silly of us to think that everything we see around us is "native" as if time and our planet stood still for millions of years. If your local birds are eating it and spreading it, and it's thriving, sounds to me like a perfect ecosystem.

    • @mplslawnguy3389
      @mplslawnguy3389 4 года назад +1

      E Johnson I get what you’re saying but the problem with that is these things didn’t just show up naturally, they were imported at some point and planted here. The same with invasive animals. Nature has a way of creating its own ecosystems that work well together, invasive plants and animals throw that system way off and do cause problems. The DNR has lists of plants that you are required to eradicate for a reason.

    • @ejohnson3131
      @ejohnson3131 4 года назад +1

      mplslawnguy - There's some plants I wouldn't want to spread like English Ivy, bamboo and Siberian elm... But a lot of plants, seeds and animals traveled over entire oceans, even continents, and naturalized way before any of us existed. It's all part of nature. Sometimes even scientists don't agree on what's native. They're finding fossils of vegetation that's leading them to believe Greenland was once covered by lush jungles. Maybe some day that barberry you like so much will find itself under an ice sheet a mile deep? 😂

    • @mplslawnguy3389
      @mplslawnguy3389 4 года назад

      E Johnson Thats the thing, those plants, seeds and animals made their way to other continents on their own. That was natures way of spreading the plant. You can’t tell me Asian Carp is good for our rivers. Or milfoil and zebra mussels in our lakes. Certain species artificially introduced out competes everything and before you know it, all you have is Asian carp, or one type of understory bush in the forest. These things are a problem. Obviously this isn’t all non native plants. Most are perfectly fine and don’t really cause problems but there are a few that do. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to take a look at what you’re selling if you’re a nurseryman and maybe cut a few things out.
