I was laughing so hard😂 you are brilliant, gardener Scott!!! Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher for so many years. Sending you so much love ❤
My Mom grew up in Denver, and I still remember her telling me how her Daddy loved his marshmallow bushes. Thanks for bringing back that memory. Stay Well!!!
This is THE Best April fool's joke I've ever seen! My daughter is a newbie gardener and plans to grow Marshmallow in her garden this year along with other herbs. You know I had to share this with her.
I would love to see you go on a trip to the South Pole and shoot an episode on the ice cream bushes there. It's amazing to me how through their cross-breeding the ice cream gardeners keep on producing new varieties. This video was a "treat"
This was very educational. Some of these tips I will be using for my first CORVETTE that I am growing in my back yard. I am hoping to harvest it in 2030.
I'm in Zone 99b Scott and are often too late here in London. If i remember and are ready, i put out my 1000 gram shade cloth when they are about ready. I have a lot a rabbit problems in London and often find i don't have many left when it comes to harvesting times. Thank you so much for reminding me to do a stake out. I recommend that frog suit from the amazson. Those guys won't see you with those red and and white stripes!
I have wondered about this for decades. As usual you gave numerous details for proper care. I always suspected an inner goofball within you. Thank you for sharing.😂
I just get the transplants from AG store down the road . They don't seem to be doing well and I cannot figure out if I'm planting em too shallow or too deep 🤔
I have a hot cocoa plant in my garden. They grow amazingly well here in Wyoming because we too have a rollercoaster of weather but we also have dry, alkaline soil which is perfect for newly developing hot cocoa buds. Come next fall those beautiful spring buds will turn into pods of hot chocolate just ready for the picking as the temperatures again start to go up and down erratically. Thanks for sharing this video…I am definitely going to see about adding a marshmallow bush to my yard. It’s sure to be a hit with the dog and the grandkids, too!🃏
Mine always seem to ripen during the evening of March 31. Quirk of nature, I guess. I've had some luck grafting the marshmallow to a graham tree. Resulting fruit has a crumbly skin adding a nice texture and flavor. Cheers!
We cut down an old marshmallow tree the other week, and I milled up some boards on my sawmill. It was very white kind of like white pine, but it was too soft to use. Had a really good sweet smell though. I still prefer walnut over Mallowood.
Nice sharing Scott. Maybe next April 1st you can show us toffee apples? I hope everything is going well for you and your contributions to our society and abroad have been quite exceptional. You are a beautiful man Scott. Best wishes Jason from Melbourne Australia.
Thank you for this video. I'm still smiling. Loved your delivery of an authentic gardening tips and informational video. I shared it on Facebook for my friends to enjoy. Thanks again!
I'd always assumed the marshmallow was a fruit, so learned a lot here. Loved this video and look forward to seeing your approach to storing these enlarged buds next.
Lol carefully Gardener Scott lol there are those of us who are gullablelol. You may have people asking where to buy a marshmallow bush😮😂 like when a news channel said showed a ping pong ball tree in Florida. Lol tons of people called to find out where they could buy this tree lol. You have such a straight face I love it, just what I need with all the stress of life in these times❤❤❤❤❤❤
😍 gotta get myself one of these. Don't think I've seen a marshmallow bush in my local garden centre so it might involve a trip to a specialist nursery. Hope the UK climate is warm enough 🤞😅😆
Happy fools day! The real funny thing is I'm actually growing the Marshmallow plant this year. Well at least trying too. 😊 This was cute. Have a Happy Spring! 🐣
Well, we should certainly be able to grow marshmallows here in SW Oregon! The weather changes and temps have been crazy! Thank you Gardener Scott for another fun April 1st!
One winter I saw potato vines growing though a crack from underneath the storage spot under the house. Potatoes had formed under there on TOP of the soil. So I tried planting sweet potatoes and covered the planting area with plywood propped up on bricks and let the vines grow out the sides and put straw and leaves around the edge to block light and hold in moisture. Huge clean sweet potatoes formed on top of the ground beneath it. Cardboard/boxes should work to do this with either type if it can be supported and kept lifted above the soil. But even lifting it may not be needed for success. I`m gonna experiment with this since my soil is shallow and terrible and also try to figure out a way to grow them this way with a water/nutrients solution. Some people will actually BELIEVE you can grow marshmallows. Ha!
“It tastes pinker” 🤣🤣🤣 BEST April fool’s video I’ve EVER seen!!! Hilarious😂 What’s even funnier is that I’m new to gardening and actually googled how to grow a marshmallow plant and this popped up!!! Glad I realized it was a joke😆
👏🏻👏🏻 This video is fun. I was smiling the whole way through. I have roller coaster weather every spring in my area. I’m glad to know there’s something I can grow that enjoys this type of weather. I’m going to search until I find a marshmallow bush for my yard. Hopefully I can find one that has been bred to produce more strawberry marshmallows than white ones. If anyone here finds a source for that, please share a link.
This calls into question all of the “good” advice you have given all gardeners around the world! Haha!!! Great job! Agree with everyone on your mastery of presentation.😂😂😂
As we live in Nebraska, I'm excited to know that we too, have the optimum climate to grow these. I'll be sure to ask the next time I'm at the local nursery. ;)
Gardener Scott is amazing to keep a straight face through the whole video. 😁On a related note, this reminds me of a piece I watched a while back from The Onion about fall off the bone russet potatoes.
Finally something that I can actually grow well here in Denver with our crazy temp swings! Excited to have a fruit harvest that didn’t get frozen at bud stage. Great vid.
Good to see a video on growing marshmallows. I remember learning from about how hard it can be to farm them in North Carolina from a youtube video years ago.
Thanks so much Scott for reminding me today is harvest day for Marshmallows!! Hoping for a bumper crop this year. Just a reminder that you can vacuum seal them to keep them “off the bush” fresh for those summer campfires! 😁
😂😂😂😂the art with this one is never breaking character
He even prepped for this video weeks ago on a cold snowy day to capture the mini-marshmallow buds. Amazing.
A masterclass in committing to the bit with a straight face the whole time. Too funny!
Hes the real deal.
I was laughing so hard😂 you are brilliant, gardener Scott!!! Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher for so many years. Sending you so much love ❤
It's the gathering in the Easter bunny basket that got me!😂
My Mom grew up in Denver, and I still remember her telling me how her Daddy loved his marshmallow bushes. Thanks for bringing back that memory. Stay Well!!!
😅
The deadpan is phenomenal. Totally believable. Excellent video. Bravo!
Thanks for this helpful marshmallow knowledge! Nobody else discusses this, they just gatekeep and hoard all the knowledge for themselves!
LOL Scott. I love you.
Do marshmallows grow better if you mulch them with Lucky Charms?
I'm pretty sure Lucky Charms have the perfect NPK for marshmallow bushes. Of course the downside is they aren't organic. I'd give it a shot though.
😂😂😂❤
Your April Fool's Day videos never get old. Thanks for the smile today.
Love the disclaimer at the end. I can just imagine people going to their local nursery and asking for marshmallow bushes 😂
But don’t forget, the bushes are difficult to find. You should ask for a cutting 😊
Lol, I just said the same thing-too funny!
This is THE Best April fool's joke I've ever seen! My daughter is a newbie gardener and plans to grow Marshmallow in her garden this year along with other herbs. You know I had to share this with her.
😂😂😂😂😂
Loving the Easter basket
I would love to see you go on a trip to the South Pole and shoot an episode on the ice cream bushes there.
It's amazing to me how through their cross-breeding the ice cream gardeners keep on producing new varieties.
This video was a "treat"
It would interesting to see you develop a hybrid marshmallow variety through cross breeding. I bet you could make the little ones taste even better.
Like a marshmallow × banana=peep?😂❤
Oh that would be a great variety! ❤
This was very educational. Some of these tips I will be using for my first CORVETTE that I am growing in my back yard. I am hoping to harvest it in 2030.
I crossed a peanut 🥜 with my marshmallow bush and now I have a hybrid variety I call circus peanuts
Bravo! My 11 year old bought it, hook line and sinker. My 9 year old, however, got the joke right away.
If I get any customers at the nursery asking for a marshmallow plant, I’m blaming you Scott! 🤣
I never get mine to come up like this. A gardener extraordinaire! *chefs kiss *
I was waiting for him to fertilize the bush with sugar!
I'm in Zone 99b Scott and are often too late here in London. If i remember and are ready, i put out my 1000 gram shade cloth when they are about ready. I have a lot a rabbit problems in London and often find i don't have many left when it comes to harvesting times. Thank you so much for reminding me to do a stake out. I recommend that frog suit from the amazson. Those guys won't see you with those red and and white stripes!
This is amazing 😂 well done Scott
The wealth of knowlege jampacked in 8 minutes! Thank you😂❤
You got me on this one. Today is my birthday I’m turning 70 and our 50th wedding anniversary is on April 12th. Great looking mallows!
Well happy birthday to you and happy anniversary 🎉
Happy birthday! I did the 70 thing a couple of years ago.
I have wondered about this for decades. As usual you gave numerous details for proper care. I always suspected an inner goofball within you. Thank you for sharing.😂
Wow!!! Congrats on all fronts!!🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday 🎉🎂
I once grew a macaroni tree. Much better than store bought. Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ USA
I just planted two dozen eggs to grow my own flock of chickens.
I just get the transplants from AG store down the road .
They don't seem to be doing well and I cannot figure out if I'm planting em too shallow or too deep 🤔
Absolutely stellar! This is the best marshmallow gardening video, top-notch comprehensive information, as we've come to expect from Gardener Scot. 🤩💚
I laughed out loud when I realized you were harvesting them into an Easter basket! Hilarious!
I love the horticultural tips with this one - and the perfect purple marshmallow basket! Brilliant!
You've convinced me-- I'm going to start growing my own marshmallows from now on. Thank you for the informative video!
I could not stop smiling. Thanks for that. Have a great day.
I have a hot cocoa plant in my garden. They grow amazingly well here in Wyoming because we too have a rollercoaster of weather but we also have dry, alkaline soil which is perfect for newly developing hot cocoa buds.

Thanks for sharing this video…I am definitely going to see about adding a marshmallow bush to my yard. It’s sure to be a hit with the dog and the grandkids, too!🃏
Please show how to start these from seed next year!
Mine always seem to ripen during the evening of March 31. Quirk of nature, I guess. I've had some luck grafting the marshmallow to a graham tree. Resulting fruit has a crumbly skin adding a nice texture and flavor. Cheers!
Just found your channel looking to building a bottle border... And now you're growing marshmallows. Renaissance man.
Hehehehe........ And a Happy April Fools' Day to you! Now I'm going to get my granddaughters with this!
We cut down an old marshmallow tree the other week, and I milled up some boards on my sawmill. It was very white kind of like white pine, but it was too soft to use. Had a really good sweet smell though. I still prefer walnut over Mallowood.
You have the best April fools day videos!!! That’s hysterical, and all with a straight face. Lol
This is why I stay on your channel...
Next year...a video on raising free-range peeps 😉
Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I LIVE for April 1st! You did not disappoint! Love the wee basket and the winter shots. Thats some dedication! ❤😂😊
❤❤ love the video Gardener Scott. Im not a big fan of marshmallows, but I do have about a dozen plants I started from seed.
Nothing like a freshly picked marshmallow warm from the aftersun
Nice sharing Scott. Maybe next April 1st you can show us toffee apples? I hope everything is going well for you and your contributions to our society and abroad have been quite exceptional. You are a beautiful man Scott. Best wishes Jason from Melbourne Australia.
Scott could you provide us with some tips in a future video on how to get great yields from our s’moreberry bushes?
OMG!! I woke to this first thing in the morning - Hilarious!!
I planted my peppers to close to my marshmallow bush. They came out a little spicy.
Thank you for this video. I'm still smiling. Loved your delivery of an authentic gardening tips and informational video. I shared it on Facebook for my friends to enjoy. Thanks again!
Maybe the milder winter allowed the pink version this year. It's been too wet this spring. I think the Jackolopes got them first.😢
As a side note, you have an easy way to have a marshmallow roast. Cheers, Scott!
My husband and I rolled on this one LOL. I wish my grandkids had been here to see this
I'd always assumed the marshmallow was a fruit, so learned a lot here. Loved this video and look forward to seeing your approach to storing these enlarged buds next.
Look forward to these video's every April 1st! Well done.
Lol, nice one. I was outside earlier wondering if my marsh mallow was going to come back this spring.
.mine has, I am in zone 9b
Lol carefully Gardener Scott lol there are those of us who are gullablelol. You may have people asking where to buy a marshmallow bush😮😂 like when a news channel said showed a ping pong ball tree in Florida. Lol tons of people called to find out where they could buy this tree lol. You have such a straight face I love it, just what I need with all the stress of life in these times❤❤❤❤❤❤
😍 gotta get myself one of these. Don't think I've seen a marshmallow bush in my local garden centre so it might involve a trip to a specialist nursery. Hope the UK climate is warm enough 🤞😅😆
Awesome, love this for April 1st.
I always love the attentention to detail in your videos.
Amazing video, thank-you for the morning smile and laugh ❤
Cute. Also, as someone who actually grows marshmallow, this was especially clever.
You're a legend.
Ruth Stout method for marshmallows. Bumper crop last year
Haha, Happy , Thank you gardener Scott, I will try to grow Peeps shrub this season, lol. I ll see you on the live stream in a bit. Cheers
That’s awesome! What a great way to start a Monday morning but it does make me wonder how much I should trust your other gardening advice. 😂
HAHAHAHAHA I love this!!!! Thank you for this early morning laughter!
😂😂😂 Two minutes of wondering "Is this for real? I know there's a marshmallow plant..." Then it dawned on me 😂😂😂 Good one!
Happy fools day!
The real funny thing is I'm actually growing the Marshmallow plant this year. Well at least trying too. 😊 This was cute. Have a Happy Spring! 🐣
Me too! Ive got about a dozen lovely wee plants
I'm starting mine tomorrow. I've got the toothache plant and Indian peace pipe sprouting at the moment. 😁
Same! Lol
Well, we should certainly be able to grow marshmallows here in SW Oregon! The weather changes and temps have been crazy! Thank you Gardener Scott for another fun April 1st!
My husband and I loved it. It was a great end to our day. Thanks. I don't know how you kept a straight face for this.

Some people will actually BELIEVE you can grow marshmallows. Ha!
I've been looking forward to this day for quite a while. You are the greatest, Mr. Scott! I hope you didn't get a tummy ache.
Always enjoy your 1st of April videos!
Yes, Gardener Scott, but if you aren’t growing a Graham cracker bush, your marshmallows won’t be the same. 😂
Excellent gardening advice, as per usual. Looking forward to harvesting Marshmallows this year!
I stared at the thumbnail for half a minute like 😮 before going RIGHT APRIL 1 okay! 😂
“It tastes pinker” 🤣🤣🤣 BEST April fool’s video I’ve EVER seen!!! Hilarious😂
What’s even funnier is that I’m new to gardening and actually googled how to grow a marshmallow plant and this popped up!!! Glad I realized it was a joke😆
What is your opinion on artificially ripening marshmallows in the microwave?
They need to rest on a Graham cracker as insulation. A bit of chocolate on top helps too.
👏🏻👏🏻 This video is fun. I was smiling the whole way through. I have roller coaster weather every spring in my area. I’m glad to know there’s something I can grow that enjoys this type of weather.

Love it! Well crafted video and so funny!! Im going to show so many ppl this video today😂
Just watched the whole April 1st playlist....🥰 Love 'em!.
APRIL FOOLS!!! lol, good one. I assumed you were going to chat about the marsh mallow plant along with some fun regarding the treat.
Well done Scott. Love the deadpan delivery!
I think your April 1 videos are always the most informative!
So Awesome! I laughed and giggled the entire video. I about spit my lunch out when you said to ask at the nursery for marshmallow cuttings.
🐝Thanks for the great video🌻🐰Happy easter!! 🐰 Are you starting a growalong 🤣
As we live in Nebraska, I'm excited to know that we too, have the optimum climate to grow these. I'll be sure to ask the next time I'm at the local nursery. ;)
This is outstanding, my favorite video ever! How did you keep it together😂❤😂❤
Scott: I tried that, but just as they started to bear fruit they cross pollinated with my dingleberry vines and developed a somewhat fecal taste!
Gardener Scott is amazing to keep a straight face through the whole video. 😁On a related note, this reminds me of a piece I watched a while back from The Onion about fall off the bone russet potatoes.
You've been growing this one for quite some time. Love it!
LOL! 😀😀😀😀
I grow my marshmallows from seed. They have done well where I live. My climate is a lot like Gardener Scott's.
Finally something that I can actually grow well here in Denver with our crazy temp swings! Excited to have a fruit harvest that didn’t get frozen at bud stage. Great vid.
Good to see a video on growing marshmallows. I remember learning from about how hard it can be to farm them in North Carolina from a youtube video years ago.
You even filmed the tiny marshmallows growing in winter....I love your april 1st video's.
That was awesome! How you kept a straight face through it all was amazing. Hope you didn't get an upset stomach eating all those marshmallows! lol
I love these! So serious without skipping a beat 🤣
Perfect delivery !
Haha I remember back in the 60s a TV anchor did a spot on a pickle tree on April Fool's Day!
You’re always the best Gardener Scott! 😂
Thanks so much Scott for reminding me today is harvest day for Marshmallows!! Hoping for a bumper crop this year. Just a reminder that you can vacuum seal them to keep them “off the bush” fresh for those summer campfires! 😁
