As a fellow Houstonian - you are an inspiration!
Yay!!! I was wondering if you forgot about us. 🤣🌱❤️
I’m trying to get more consistent! Running a business and raising a 1 year old are my priorities at the moment. Haha! Thanks for your patience
@@paulplantu you give us a reason to keep coming back 😀
Dude your channel is great. I’m pretty new to gardening as well and got more into natives watching your videos. 👍💯
I remember when you first started your gardening, during the pandemic. Your garden has grown so much! Keep up the great work Paul! Much love from Greece!
I know, it’s crazy looking at the old footage and how much everything has grown
It was SO cool that U snagged all that brick a while back to do that side yard!!
Yass, WTG Paul! I stumbled upon your channel when you were first started and I remember the strip with nothing. I believe your brick edging was something you 'hunted' for along with all bags of leaves to improve the soil.
Great job!
So nice to see how well everything is doing and how much they have grown since you planted them. Thanks for taking us along on your gardening journey!
Of course, thanks for jointing me along the way!
Great to see another video. So generous of you to share your strip with the passersby. They’re going to enjoy that strip.
Missed you dude! I'm truly amazed how much you've learned and that you can remember all the names, the Latin ones aswell!
Thank you for always making me smile and laugh out loud 😂❣️ All the best, Martina!
I got a new monitor a few days ago & this video was a perfect usage for it. So many lush & vibrant colors!
Everything looks great! You are a wealth of information and inspiration for me here in Galveston county! Mulberry and figs are hanging in there but not as big as yours! Good to see you again, happy growing!
I grew up in La Marque so I’m glad I can help another G-County native. Mulberries grow fast, just wait.
Thats cool I went to school in La Marque 7-9th grade @@paulplantu
A fruit production/asting video would be fun
Love the garden tour! Your videos have been really inspiring for this Texas gardener. Cheers!
That Mexican Olive TP though 😂
I'M LOVING IT!!, You're garden has came a long way. God Bless!!
Good to hear from you Paul. The plants are iooking very nice. Thanks for the update. Hope the family is well. Gary, Tucson, AZ
That’s a lot of great work.
Yessssss!!! Is that the indigenous Braeswood Crane in your garden??? Earth is Our Plan et 👊✌️❤️💯
Everything is looking great. I definitely think you need to school yourself on pruning. Once you got your prune game on lock your tree's will take off like crazy. . I've been watching your videos for quite some time and it's so nice to see the transformation.
Wow! It sure has developed into a cool area! Well done and excellent video 😊
Have to say I had to pause to laugh on the … If there is another toilet paper shortage plant substitute!!! LOL
Thanks for being so entertaining while share your straight up knowledge on all these plants!
Your garden has definitely grown and looking amazing! Everything looks beautiful! I love that rock rose. Thanks for the update, I was wondering how your garden was doing. I know life happens and your busy. Good to hear you have been picking pears.
Missed you! Glad the notification bell is working :)
Always love when he post a video❤
Amazing garden!
Nice work! We have a lot of the same plants. I'm in Houston as well. 🙌
Great channel, love your enthusiasm for plants. Best of luck.
Just found your channel. Enjoyed seeing what you have done with your side yard..you have so much space to work with. I will be looking forward to more of your bifeos
So much progress! If you ever have to protect those plants from freeze again, cover them and throw some jugs of water under for thermal mass
Love all things you’re putting in the ground! Your dream, your house, your garden! Smashed and liked HOU4LIFE 🌱
Everything is so beautiful! The sago palms, I remember when you planted them, it looks nice!
I hope my Duranta grows that big!!
Free 99 😂
Awesome video ♥
Keep the videos coming! Your garden looks awesome!
looks great!
what have you heard from neighbors?
i’m sure the appreciate the curb appeal.👍🏾
Hey Paul! I’ve been watching you for a while and I love your videos so much. They really show that you don’t have to be a certain type of person to love gardening and plants (I’m an 18 year old guy). I know that for a while you’ve been saying that you want your backyard to look like a tropical forest but you are unable to have crazy tropical plants because of your location. Well I’ve got a list of some crowshaft palms here that are hardy to zone 9b that you might be interested in (though not native): Rhopalostylis, Hedyscepe, Dypsis decipiens, and Archontophoenix cunninghamiana. If you want a fan palm that you will definitely not have to worry about the cold for then try out trachycarpus fortunei. I’ve got one growing in Michigan zone 6a and it’s done well so far (I’ve seen some cool videos of people in crazy cold environments having success with them). Anyway, there should be some websites that will sell seeds or seedlings of these palms for about $20 each if you just do a little bit of research. Good luck and I hope this helped some! Have a great day!
Rhopalostylis, Hedyscepe, Dypsis decipiens -> will not grow in Houston, these are cool climate species and cannot tolerate hot subtropical conditions
Trachycarpus does poorly and sometimes hangs on for years only to suddenly die for similar reasons. Not well adapted to hot subtropics
Archontophoenix cunninghamia will live for a while and has even reached flowering/fruiting size before, it will die when the inevitable long duration
@@jonathanhuynh3033Dude, thank you so much for the in depth comment. I really appreciate the knowledge and suggestions!
Glad your citrus survived! Don't forget to remove the trifoliate suckers on the mandarin. I think you should give citrus another go, 2021 and 2022 were very unusual and by far the two coldest winters in the past 30 years (the third coldest, 2011, is not even close to the same level). Guava is another easy to grow tropical fruit and will always come back from the ground if frozen back. Star fruit will also come back.
Your garden is looking beautiful, I just planted me a Sunshine Ligustrum and I love it.
You need a worm bin dad 😅
As for those fruit trees you might want to use some wire to restrict the trunk and branches from hanging out in the road.
What a beautiful garden! The plants you have are so different from mine since i'm from a colder climate (Québec, Canada), and so I get to discover completely new plants I never saw before. Did you ever thought about growing Satsumas? They are one of the most cold hardy citrus plants, and can tolerate 15-20f if I remember right.
Thanks for the great tour.
Looking good dude!
Dope video ! 🌸🌿🌿
Id totally buy a cape honeysuckle from you, if u got em potted up. That thang is banging!
The garden makes the house look soo cozy🤗
You got this bro. Amazing that they come back, troopers
Oh, wow I didn't know blue berries would grow in our Texas zone 9, that's cool. I have a Pride of Barbosa also, but I just call it by one of the common names which is peacock flower.
Just so you know, there's are several blueberry farms around Houston. One that we like is Moorhead's Blueberry Farm. They have many different varieties of blueberries. They open for picking in late May or early June.
Your time and effort really showed in this video! It looks beautiful Paul! Do you have any indoor plants?
One of my favorite channels to watch! 🌱
Hey im in the Woodlands love how your garden! Plant ro copy you on a few things !
You're welcome to some of my perennial bulbs: red rain lilies, pink rain lilies, red British soldiers (spider lily), narcissus, etc! I'm in Houston.
Also: purple iris, aloe vera, calla lilies, society garlic, etc.
I loved having lorapetalums! Got some red Turk's caps now.
Yay!
Hey do you want some gorgeous spider lilies?? They are beautiful and sphinx moths love them
I love your rockrose, I want some, but I am having a hard time finding them even online.
I live in south Louisiana but have a lot family in Houston that i want to help out get some native plants in their yards and balconies for apartments
Hackberry 😊
I was just tellin my girl I wonder what happened to your videos! Glad you gave us an update bro. Do you still buy plants during the December months?
Could you update us on your front garden pond?
Man I got one of them shrimp plants in spring time this year. I’m guessing this heat we got in Houston it could t take it, it’s ☠️
how much fruit would you actually get or would any ripe fruit tend to walk away? Great ideas and I assume no HOA?
Omg WHERE DID YOU GET THE LONG LEAF PINE FROM???
Freakin sunshine lugustrum😂
opuntia thornless cactus pads
what do you do if your sunshine ligustrum is losing all its leaves?!!
If anyone wants a ton of shrimp plant, I am an hour north of houston.
What is the name of the Pear tree that had fruit on it?
Try Calamansi Citrus Tree
Hey bro, how much do you charge? I own my home in greenspoint.
what happened to your paw paw trees? do they survive our summer
You’re funny. lol
