I call these plants the background singers of the garden band.
Love watching your videos. How's the bananas? They are so gorgeous.😂
Hi Erin! Love your videos. I love the gardening community out there.
LOVED this whole informative video! Great guest and great new plants I MUST have.
Yay! So glad you enjoyed this episode 🥰🥰
You both are a kick! Very much enjoy your content and humor.
Thank you so much! 🤗😄
Best supporting role as a garden structure, “Wooden Trellis”! 😆 This is a great topic that is under appreciated and you don’t hear much about. It’s been a challenge to create a garden that is more interesting than shrubs and annuals. Many plants have come…and gone. 😉
🐝 Don Snoeyink is amazing!!!🐝 Such great information on honeybees… I learned a lot!
Annnnother great show! Thank you!
Absolutely! It can be challenging to find a balance between the main showcase plants and the ones that help support them. Don is wonderful, it's always so fun and insightful having him on! 🤗😄
So glad you thru a shout out to the Popcorn plant. I purchased a small one, didn't think it would make it as a stem was broken. Now it is 18 inches tall and all branched out evenly, no blooms yet (or should I say no bloom stalk) Did you know the leaves close up for the night? So cool. MS 8a
It is such a cool plant! 😄
I would say that lambs ear and perennial geranium are my supporting role plants. They give unity to all my gardens. Bonny
Those are wonderful choices! 🙂
Potentilla are great plants! They are tough and bloom forever. Don the bee man was so interesting, I’m going to look up Thornapple Woodlands to learn more! My apologies for gushing but I love the Gardening Simplified Show!! My little garden has greatly improved since I found your channel. Many thanks!
That is so wonderful for us to hear! ☺❤ Don is great and has a bounty of knowledge - so much fun having him on the show! 🤗
Thank you for another great, informative show!! I always learn something new! And usually add a new plant to my wishlist☺
Yay! That's so wonderful to hear and thank you so much for supporting our show! 🤗❤
I think of the shrubs that physically support the flowering plants that tend to flop over and need staking. My roses shrubs help support the delphiniums next to them.
That's a great way to view it as well! Plants that help with the actual structure and habits of others to help them shine ☀
"Plain" green hostas, daylilies, and perennial geranium are my supporting roles. Grape muscari would be my spring one.
Those all are great choices! I like that you have ones for different seasons, that's an important aspect to consider when designing the garden space 😄
Rick I seriously thought Stacy would pick a ninebark too! She always surprises us with her knowledge.
Stacey is amazing and surprises us all the time with her knowledge. I learn something new from her every week! Thank you very mulch for watching!
Sweet romance is indeed amazing❤
😍🤗❤
I’d say Spirea could be supporting plant. It is reliable, can become the star in certain seasons (scenes of the movie) and I’d pick perennial grasses. hostas and huchera can be supporting plants too even though they themselves can be distinct with colour and texture.
Absolutely! Spirea is a great option, as well as the others you mentioned. Design and placement can determine if a plant plays a main role or supports one in the garden ☺☀
Euphorbia is a supporting role plant.
Yes, that one is great for a supporting role!
Does anyone use horseradish as a a background filler? I find the leaves to be beautiful :). Are there any proven winners cultivars? Unlikely but worth a ponder!!!
The leaves do have a cool texture to them! We do not have any varieties of it in the Proven Winners line but it is certainly a neat plant ☺
And there is a really good chance they are deer proof, unless of course deer have the same taste buds as the British 😊
@@drhoy15 Hahaha! 😄
I love flax and grew in New Mexico for 30 years,but now here in the Pacific Northwest it’s just to wet and has not overwintered also stipa thread grass which was always the main winter interest does not last over winter.
Both of those have that nice wispy habit that works well for supporting role plants! Have you found any other plants you enjoy growing in your new location?
Funny Stacey. I just planted a Happy Face White this month. It was a half price quart. See how it goes.
It's a lovely plant!
Looking forward to the ‘Dog Scaping’ episode!
Wahoo! 🤗😄
Evergreens plays star role up north in the dead winter… diff roles for diff seasons
Absolutely!
GAURA!
You don’t really notice it until a bee makes the branches move.
Yes! That's a great one! 😄
Prairie Moon nursery sells plants of euphorbia corollata in spring
Such a beautiful plant! 🤗
