Ha, ha! I’m the one getting ideas in our household! I can’t tell you how often I hear “No more plants!” But we have 12 acres. I had a colleague who used to smuggle new clothes into the house by mixing them with the dry cleaning to hide them from her husband. I need to find the gardening version of that!! 😂
I've been growing New Hampshire Purple geranium for about 14 years. It's an excellent low maintenance plant with a really nice shape and is very long blooming. On the other hand I think I've killed about 16 lavender plants, including Phenomenal in my life. I've found that even in the hottest driest spot in my garden, Virginia clay soil (even amended) and our amount of rainfall will reliably kill every kind of lavender plant within about 3 years. I'm trying it in pots this year, but boy is it tough to grow here! Jenny, if you can get that lavender to survive past 3 years, you're my hero!
Such valuable advice. Everything you mentioned, everything, are plants to invest in. They are easy to grow, put in the right spot, are colorful and eye catching, and that can be transplanted when divided, in a very short time. I find perennials to be getting more and more expensive, so plants that can be divided in three years really give me many plants for the price of one. Again, I have found that the right spot and correct watering makes all the difference. But, your information is so meaningful to we gardeners. Takes so much of the guesswork out of buying.
My 3 sweetspire plants are the talk of the neighborhood, as they have tripled in size since last year. It has gorgeous foliage as well as the sweetly scented, catkin-like “spires” are so beautiful and unique.
Again, really really enjoy these types of videos. Lol. I don't care who came out with plants. I just love seeing and learning about all plants that are great!!!!
I just came back from a trip to Lowe's and did not put a single plant on my cart. I consider that a major accomplishment...for me. I'm easily lured by beautiful blooms. 🌼❇️🌸❇️ Instead, I picked up mulch, paver sand and a dozen bricks, and a gallon of paint 😱 for my 30+ year old shutters. Today is a rainy day so I'm ready to work tomorrow with this much-appreciated softer ground. I am so attracted by those ultraviolet phlox! Maybe even the bee balm if they stay in clumps. I'm digging up some that have become a bit thuggish and share with neighbors.
Wish you could do a show on what looks good in the woods. I have a few acres and want to add color but things deer won't eat and turn it into a cottage garden.. good tips. ty
Wonderful, I would love to visit your nursery. I'm in Oklahoma, I wish there was a place like yours here. There was in San Antonio, you could take your measurment tell them your desired results and they would fix you right up. Great video.
What a terrific tour of the garden. Extremely informative & discovered new plants. Lesser Catmint, Spreading Yew, Florida Sunshine & Drops of Jupiter. Thx. cgzone8
Florida Sunshine, four bushes, two years old, stunning color the entire year. Nothing eats this plant. And, it is the winter color that is worth its existence. One great plant.
a southern person saying “bless his heart” makes me chuckle cuz i’m from NJ but I know enough southern people to know what that means 😅😂 beautiful perennials. The chartreuse on the loose is something I should try.
Have two sedums which I have come to adore because of me not having to do one darn thing for them to thrive. And, on top of that, they spread readily and can be dug and replanted or given to friends. Autumn Joy, and oldie but goodie. The only thing I do is cut them in half around late April, early May, here in Virginia, to keep them from flopping open from the middle because of the heavy heads. You can replant the cuttings, too, but I have too many little seedlings to worry about the cuttings. Then there is John Creech sedum. This is a ground cover sedum that thrives on the edge of a bed, against a small stone edge, and is now three years old. It has roots like iron, and holds back the dirt and mulch that is on a pretty steep incline. Gets sporadic water, and has the daintiest look to its leaves. This is the third ground cover I have tried here and the only one that has taken to the spot like a champ. Full sun. I am digging up the parts that have grown into the daisies to give to a neighbor. Never thought I would find a ground cover that would thrive in such an inhospitable area. Well worth the investment for 12 plants to stretch across about 20 feet. The ground is entirely covered and it is falling over the stone edge, looking just lovely.
Speaking of perennials... I'm planning on doing a short hedge with frost proof gardenias to hide my ugly chain link fence. What would you suggest to plant in front of them? I'm thinking of planting the area with pastels for a moon garden effect. (zone 7b)
Thanks, Jenny, Jerry, and Creekside team♥️! Jenny, have you ever heard of the hydrangea called”Lady in Red?” It begins blooming around this time in the eyelet format. I bought it last year at a nursery that has closed. Thanks for the awesome format!
My little red head is doing great I planted it last year and it came back double the size and is absolutely beautiful; I give it morning sun and afternoon shade, it likes to stay a little moist and bloomed all summer and fall. I really wish I had picked up about five the next time I find it I’m stocking up! My let’s dance sky view Id cover d in blooms like can’t see the leaves! Love it!
Jenny please tell me how to keep my geraniums alive while being gone for a week. I am in Piedmont area of NC. Are getting watered twice daily to stay pretty. Should I put pots in a shade area or put them into garage?
Jenny and Jerry thank you so much for this program! My pollinators garden 2nd year is so beautiful thanks to you. Such great information. Missed Brenna today.
I found some phenomenal lavender at my local nursery and snatched up two solely because you had such success with them in your garden. I can't wait to see how they do!
Another must have deer resistant or maybe even 100% deer proof is “montrose white” catmint. It’s from Nancy Goodwin’s Hillsborough NC garden. Pollinator machine nonstop blooming and so attractive. I love that blue flower, too. I’ve not seen that yet.
Most dogs don’t gnaw on plants in the garden. Are your dogs attended in the garden? Are they interested in eating your plants? If so, they are probably not a good idea for your yard.
Can you recommend anything that grows in full shade that is deer resistant? My parents have trouble with deer eating their hostas. We are in 7B also. Thank you! Love your videos
A few of my favs are…. Lambs ears, salvias, red hot pokers, Lenten roses, lungwart, foxgloves, bearsbreeches , ferns, astilbes, irises, ornamental grasses, artemisia, dusty Miller, euphorias, Shasta daisies . But!….deer will eat anything if hungry enough. Good luck!

My husband says I shouldn’t watch because it gives me ideas. But oh what great ideas they are!🌸🌼🌻🌺 we saw our first hummer yesterday in PA.
Mine said the same thing, told him too late. Already been to the nursery lmao 😜 🤷♀️😉❣️
Thank you Jenny and Jerry

Mine too and then he adds..oh what is she going to do this time.
South Louisiana... everything grows here 🌺 🌹🌹🌺 ☘️🌵

Love the way you have the pairings right out front! Also the signs are very cute. What a wonderful unique display!

I am looking forward to seeing you planting annuals in the berm!!! But, who doesn’t love a nursery tour!!! Actually, I love all of your videos. ❤
She already did…there have been multiple videos of it.
@@thedivide3688Not of all the new ones she just showed us recently!
I'm excited to see all the perennials she showed us that are going in. That's what I'm excited for!!
So many beautiful plants. Love, love. Thanks for the tour.
As always I so enjoy your Gardeningwithcreekside tour. Thank you Jenny and Jerry ❤
I have 1 Holy Grail, 2 Midnight Marvel, 1 Berry Awesome, 2 Evening Rose, 1 Edge of Night and 2 Starry Starry Night hibiscus and I adore them. 🌺
Wow. I know they are beautiful, I have 2, don't know their names, but I love them.
I have cat pajamas in my bed and have for years--it's a beautiful plant, my cats LOVE IT!
😆 I read your comment in a very different way than I think you meant.
Cats wear pajamas? And in your bed? 😂
OMG OMG OMG Jenny, I am dying!! Your shirt with the puffer (fish) sleeves is to die for. 😍😍😍😍
Love the ezscapes; I’m always struggling with putting together combinations. Love your details of the plants.
Thank you for the tour! Fantastic plants and great information on all the varieties!
My 3 sweetspire plants are the talk of the neighborhood, as they have tripled in size since last year. It has gorgeous foliage as well as the sweetly scented, catkin-like “spires” are so beautiful and unique.
This is one of the most informative videos ever! Thanks!
So glad it was helpful!
I think it’s fantastic how you and Laura have your sweet friendship and we, the passionate viewers, get to enjoy it through your gardens♥️

Same thing happened to me today. I told her that I was so proud of myself because I had no flowers in my purchase. Rare occasion.
Thank you Jenny! I love hearing about all the plant information and actually seeing them. I always learn something new.
WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR BLOUSE???!!!!! Love your videos. ❤
Serendipity Allium one of the best plants I ever planted. Nothing eats them and they are gorgeous.
Could you please tell me what variety of spreading yew was in the tail end of your video. Thank you.
Wish you could do a show on what looks good in the woods. I have a few acres and want to add color but things deer won't eat and turn it into a cottage garden.. good tips. ty
“I literally slapped it in the ground and said a prayer over it” hilarious!
I’ve learned that when growth is red, some bug or animal will chew it.
Love your top!!! Super cute!!!
"Slapped it in the ground, said a prayer over it, & ...",lol
Russian Sage eh? I do have dry spots where things keep dying.
Wonderful, I would love to visit your nursery. I'm in Oklahoma, I wish there was a place like yours here. There was in San Antonio, you could take your measurment tell them your desired results and they would fix you right up. Great video.

Loved this tour. Picked up a Blue Muffin Viburnum yesterday. It has a beautiful form. Already got it in the ground.
Thanks, Jenny, Jerry, and Creekside team♥️!

I love the Nursery Tours especially when u take it to the Pines because I’m always hoping for a glimpse of the Drinking Gourd Hosta 😍😍😍
My little red head is doing great I planted it last year and it came back double the size and is absolutely beautiful; I give it morning sun and afternoon shade, it likes to stay a little moist and bloomed all summer and fall.

Keep going Jenny ,i get lost with you ,love watching you ,NZ ,your plants 👍👍
Thank you for the tour, you have such wonderful energy and enthusiasm, very lovely!!
Yay! Perennials! I only need a few more but…. 😂 I’ll take ‘em all! ❤🎉
What does it mean that lesser catmint is being discontinued? Does that mean we will not be able to get it anywhere? I love that plant so much!
I tried the phenomenal lavender did not come back, I have tried every one and I’m done with them
I found some phenomenal lavender at my local nursery and snatched up two solely because you had such success with them in your garden. I can't wait to see how they do!
I hope you love it as much as I do!!!
I've been looking for a crazy daisy and can't find it in my area.
I wish I could find a hibiscus like that in my area.
Another must have deer resistant or maybe even 100% deer proof is “montrose white” catmint. It’s from Nancy Goodwin’s Hillsborough NC garden. Pollinator machine nonstop blooming and so attractive. I love that blue flower, too. I’ve not seen that yet.
The sterile Calamintha nepeta subsp. nepeta 'Montrose White' is the only recommended form. All others should be avoided.
👍love them all thanks for the tour jenny & jerry
🌞🌴FL here & interested in those heat lovers!
Do you sell herbs and do you have a display planned?
Bell
Gorgeous collection Jenny 🍃🌸🍃
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wish, I lived near you !!
Thanks Jenny and Jerry. 🌷💚🙃
We don't have a local garden center 😢
Hello glad I found ur channel . I have saw we’re hydrangeas are bad for dogs what’s ur take on that ? Please reply.
Google it
Most dogs don’t gnaw on plants in the garden. Are your dogs attended in the garden? Are they interested in eating your plants? If so, they are probably not a good idea for your yard.
I can't wait to see the berm
Hi 👋 Jenny 🌸🌺❤️👏🏻
Can you recommend anything that grows in full shade that is deer resistant? My parents have trouble with deer eating their hostas. We are in 7B also. Thank you! Love your videos
Brunnera. Maybe if the deer aren’t starving! 🤞🏼

Gorgeous 🍃❤️🍃
The plants all look awesome loved the video
Thank you❣️
Thank you
Do you have to deadhead the daisies?
It does help to make the plant look cleaner and encourages new blooms.
🙋
Thank you. Beautiful plants!!!!
