Add Structure & Winter Interest to Your Landscape!
7 evergreen conifers and even 2 extra bonus ones that I grow in my garden that are extremely easy low fuss, low maintenance evergreen shrubs. These are deer resistant evergreen shrubs, and affordable with most of them being available at your local box store or garden center. Fall Garden Planting is underway, and its the perfect time to add some evergreens to your garden. Evergreens are so valuable to a garden as they add so much winter interest when all of your perennials are dormant. Do you grow any of these in your garden? Comment below. Thanks for watching - Steph (Gardening in Massachusetts zone 6b) #plants #gardening #garden #gardentour #gardenanswer
Beautiful! I have slowly been adding more winter interest to the garden. Thank you for this list, now I want to go shopping 😂
You are so welcome Linda!

Thank you for all of this evergreen information, Steph. All of your evergreen specimens are looking spectacular. Autumn and winter are when I really start to appreciate their beauty since there is not much else to gaze at. I especially adore all things blue spruce.
Hi Jolie! I agree. Its when I appreciate them the most. Blue evergreens are just gorgeous, as are the yellow ones. I think its because everything else is so green, those colors really pop 💙💛
Thank you
Beautiful garden!
Thank you for sharing this.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching Suzanne.
Living in 8b, Florida, so not many evergreens work in our humid, hot climate but love your yard!😊
That's a good point! Most evergreens certainly do better in cooler temperatures. I'm curious what are some that you can grow?
I just moved to SE coastal Georgia, zone 9. I’m just learning what will work in my yard.
I love the color of the Old Gold Juniper, Steph!
Its gorgeous Mary!! I think you need one. You commented on liking it on one of my garden center vids too, its a sign 😉💚
@@HookedandRooted I think you're right, Steph! 😘 💚
Thank you Steph! Living in Colorado this is great information. Love your videos!! Blessings ❤
I have a blue spruce lollipop. Rabbits did a number on it last winter. I guess they’ll eat anything if their starving! It was on the small side so i guess ill have to wrap it in chicken wire this winter.
Hi. Yesterday, for my birthday, we purchased an Amber Glow Dawn Redwood. We’re in southwestern CT. Zone 6b. I cannot wait to get this tree installed. I think you might love the color and texture. I’ve been assured it’s deer resistant. A new tree for me! Yay!
Hi Stef🌺 . These everygreens looks so beautiful in your garden . I love the golden and green color of them .Have awonderful day .🌺🌻🌺
Thanks so much Lina! I hope you have a great week!!
I ❤ that weeping blue spruce.
Hi Suzanne, Thank you, I love them also 💙
I love them all♥♥ I think the structure of the Old Gold is my favorite but the Hemlock is beautiful as well. The Lollipop Blue Spruce is a kick 🙃I can't pick a favorite - they are all fun!!
Beautiful evergreens! Just yesterday, I bought at HD and planted an Old Gold Juniper, a very small pot size still but so cute, and now I can see how beautifull it gets!!!! I want to say that I also love your grass that is shown when you talk about the Grey Owl Juniper, it looks fantastic, is it Fine Fescue? I love Fine Fescue grass and I'm trying to improve mine but not much success, mine is creeping red fescue. Wow love your grass!
I watched this more than once. I love evergreens and am adding them to my garden. This year added an umbrella pine and a white pine. Also have gin fizz junipers, fluffy gold, and blue point false cypress. I love your weeping blue spruce.
I ❤ the hemlock and will be on the lookout to add to my garden. Thank you Steph 😊
Hi Deanna! Its a beauty! I've seen it at lowes at least a couple of times, and its also where I purchased mine. Hope you find one!!
So so beautiful! I live in the West and some of these evergreens don't grow well here, but I love how many evergreens you have and am trying to imitate you by having a beautiful variety of evergreens both in color and form.
Beautiful GG Arborvitae fence. I will mention that although deer don’t eat them, when they’re small bucks will rut on them in the fall and break off the leader.
Thank you for this informative video, Steph. We had old large euonymus bushes removed from a front garden bed this year and now I am looking to replace them with smaller evergreens. All of your foundation evergreens are beautiful.
Thank you for sharing your garden and specifically zones and where you purchased. This video is a keeper. Cheers
Wonderful suggestions! I've been thinking about the mungo pine, so was glad to see you include it. Question about the hemlock: is it subject to the wooly adelgid infestation? They have killed off most of the hemlocks in my area.
Beautiful collection Steph 🥰🥰
I love all of them, they are so beautiful in your garden! ❤
Thank you so much Cindy! 💚
This video was just perfect, we are in the process of filling our front yard with winter interest conifers. I love finding the different textures and colors to add to the yard. Our goal is to make a sound/view barrier. (Along a major road)
Thank you we’ve added same of these to our list to find and add🌻🌻
I really enjoyed this video! I love evergreens. Love how you trimmed your cypress mop. Never thought of that ❤.
I just found a globe blue spruce standard, today! I also saw another RUclips Gardener has a mugo pine standard purchased at Horrocks market. Thanks for sharing your garden and ideas! I always look forward to your videos, Steph!
Thank you so much Laurie! I'm so glad you found one. Its a beauty! Enjoy it in your garden 💙
Beautiful choices, Steph!
Thank you!! 😊
I love the color and shape of the Golden Dutchess Hemlock, but I am in zone 10b. Beautiful collection of evergreens Steph!
Well that was very informative, I like those weeping shrubs.
Thank you for providing great content! I really enjoy your videos.
Exactly what I needed to see and learn about today, so thanks for this!
Thanks so much for your videos. Can you make a tour of your Japanese maples? I would like to have a small one for zone 5 but I am not sure it would survive. Thanks
TY...
You have some very nice conifers in your garden!
great video, thanks for sharing. they are some beautiful plants. be safe.
Thank you!
Tthank you sooooooo much for taking the time to educate us on God beautiful plants.. He loves you and I do too!!! God bless😊
Steph, I mentioned using crepe myrtles at your front stone beds BUT I had another idea. Since you said you liked white flowering trees how about a Kousa Dogwood. They have the beautiful white flowers in spring followed by a really eye catching berry. I love these trees and they would stay a very manageable size for that area. Just putting my two cents in😁. Loved your video as always.
great video. I purchased a tiny mugo pine this year. Looking forward to watching it get as big as yours.
Beautiful selection and explanation!
What a helpful video! Thank you👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great video 💚 thanks, Steph!
Beautiful choices I have been slowing adding more evergreens to my gardens your videos have inspired me to step out a bit and try new things. Thanks Steph!
That is so wonderful! Evergreens really are such an important component of most gardens 💚
Thank you for this video, perfect timing as I am trying to decide what evergreens for Spring in my new garden areas!!
Oh yay! Glad it was helpful. Thanks Michelle!
Love your list of evergreens my sista!!!!!
Your beds look fabulous still!!!
🥰🌲
Thanks so much! Love your postive comments 🥰💚
Well you’re most welcome sista!!!

BEAUTIFUL gardens
Thank you for sharing this. ❤ my first year gardening.
You are so welcome Kelly! watch out, it will quickly become a very fun obsession, ahem passion lol 💚
Great info again! Thank you!
Great video! Lots of good information.
This was very helpful information. Thank you!
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful Peggy!
I enjoyed your concise and educational video. I have some questions, but I understand if you are unable to respond.🙂
What is your soil like? Do you add certain amendments to it? Do you fertilize your landscape plants?
Just asking because few things thrive in my clay, alkaline soil.
Excellent video, well done. Thank you! 😊
Beautiful plants, Steph! Do you have any information about the watering needs of these evergreens? Blessings…
Hi there! All of them like well draining soil but will need consistent moisture while establishing. Once established, most of them are pretty drought tolerant, in fact all of them I listed are with the exception of the green giant arbs which would need regular water to stay happy and growing.
At 4:12, when you are showcasing the Colorodo spruce, what is the draping shrub to the left, under the window? Really pretty!
By the way, loved the theme of this video, and the format of the content. Very inspiring.
Great video, so informative, thx for sharing, ready to go get some shrubs lol!!!
Thank you so much! Happy Gardening!
Beautiful tree's😎😍
Can you please tell me what fertilizer you use on your evergreens, thanks
Love this info! Thanks!
Very helpful. Thank you. What’s the tree/shrub next to the yellow mop? Juniper? Eastern Red Cedar?
Hi there, thank you! It's a hinoki cypress.
Thank you.
Omg the lollipop!
Thank you for very helpful videos! How much do you water your evergreens after planting them? Do they need moister all the time or do they need to dry out?
I have 2 old gold juniper, 2 sky bound arbs, & a Colorado blue spruce. All of which I’m hoping to get in the ground here as soon as possible but trying to decide where to make the garden bed and plant them.
All the evergreens are so beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful video. I have alot of deer. In fact I was walking around my yard today, and sure enough I saw where they have been beding down way in a corner of my yard, there is a bunch of little tree's over in our fence line they bedded down in one of my iris flower beds, they were just flatted. They are a pain in my butt. My husband loves to watch them, so their you go. I saw 10 yesterday evening in my field. Great video.😊
We have 8 golden cypress shrubs that were here when we bought our house on the Cape. One day when putting down mulch I realized they were planted in the ground in their black plastic pots! Do you know why anyone would do that? Love their yellow color but was so surprised how they were planted.
I plant in pots if it’s a temporary location & I plan on moving the tree later.
Full of beauty! Thank you for the kind explanation. I ve one question on Golden mob: ive one planted last spring, 6 ft height. Now its getting brown and falling leaves from inside. Is it natuaral? Do I have to remove all brown leaves?
Hi there, Most evergreens do have some shedding and browing inside heading into winter. You can either leave it and it will fall on its own over time, or you could wear long sleeves and gloves and go in and shake some off. Leaving it wont bother the shrub, and it will push out new growth in spring.
Thanks for all the helpful info! I live in southern NH zone 5B and I bought a lollipop blue spruce a few years ago on sale in the fall at Home Depot. I was so proud of myself for getting such a great deal. However, my excitement was short-lived, because the following spring it started to lose some of its needles, so I kept an eye on it, and made sure to give it plenty of space for good airflow. Unfortunately it eventually lost most of its needles and I finally had to pull it out. I could never figure out what went wrong. I did some research online. I thought it might have been a fungal disease but I’m not sure. Have you experienced anything like this with any of your blue spruces?
Yes, and it was a needle cast disease that caused it. In fact in Ohio zone 6, most of the nurseries wouldn't see certain species like the weeping ones that Steph has because I couldn't get one here and lost a couple of blue spruces. They say once the tree gets it it's a goner. I got the weeping norwegian spruce instead and they are thriving well here.
Hi there! I have only had the standard/lolipop for 2 years now, and so far I haven't noticed that happening. However, it does sound like it got something like what @jackiewhitney5031 references below. Its frustrating and sad when that happens. I'm sorry you lost yours. Hopefully you will find another beautiful blue evergreen to take its place.
I have some large blue spruce on my property (Zone 6b Hudson Valley) and they all have needle cast and have lost all the needles on the bottom branches. However, there is also a smaller shrubby cultivar (don't know exactly what) that seems to be doing ok. Environmental stress may be a factor as the large trees are in a drier more exposed area. I'm glad to see yours are healthy.
What is the beautiful drak green tree next to the gold mop cypress
Hello, that is a hinoki cypress.
Is that 1 Blue Star Juniper that grew to that size over 10 years or is it multiples that were planted in a group that grew to that size?
That is 1 blue star juniper. I have 4 throughout my gardens all growing separately. Each one has grown to 3x4 in diameter in 10 years and about 18" in height.
I had several of those evergreens and the deer ate them last year. They will eat evergreens if they are hungry enough.
That is true, they will sample anything at least once if hungry enough. The deer resistance rating is based on plants they are less likely to eat based on their frangrance and texture. I get lots of deer, but these they haven't touched yet in my garden.
Have you had problems with needle cast (drop) for the blue spruces?
Hi there! Not on the blue spruces, I do however, have a couple of pines which this happened with this past winter.
do you have any experience keeping evergreens in pots on the porch over winter? I've read conflicting advice online. I have a zone 3 arborvitae emerald green and I'm in 5B. It's just a cheapo from Costco that I picked up and then couldn't find a home for in the garden, so if it doesn't make it, wont' be a big loss. Trying to come up with a use for it...decorate it for christmas? hehehee.
I really want to use gold mop in the back as a foundation shrub. However, I have read that it is a fast grower and can get 6x6. But yours is perfect size for what I want. Any advice?
Hi, you can prune on them to size maintain them. I made a video on how I shaped mine into a topiary because it was also getting large for its space. Here it is if you want to check it out: ruclips.net/video/wHvsmtci1Tc/видео.htmlsi=Z0t1YxLTcoHaPMal
Hi is fall a good time to trim my spiral bushes?
I’ve never trimmed them before but they are getting a little sloppy looking
💖👍🏻💖
What is the name of the tree to your right at 0:06, Hinoki Cypress? So pretty
Hi there! I have 2 in that area, one is a 'forever goldy' arborvitae, and the other to the right is the gold mop false cypress. Hope this helps. Thank you so much!
@@HookedandRooted it was the tall tree, you didn’t mention it in the video.
@sawalmer yes, that is a hinoki cypress. However i don't know the actual variety as it was planted a really long time ago and I couldn't find the tag. My best guess is that it's a "slender hinoki false cypress" size online reads as 8-12ft tall and 4-5ft wide.
@@HookedandRooted very pretty tree, I just wanted to make sure. I am always looking to see what a tree will look like in the future. I have been looking at planting a Golden Hinoki for a while, but I think your tree is prettier. The shape of the branches is very unique.
What is the tree next to the golden mop?
Hello, A hinoki cypress.
Will any of these evergreen trees grow really tall ? I want a really tall tree to plant on my property.
The colorado blue spruce & green giant arborvitae
