You Americans never cease to amaze me with your plant knowledge. Since watching RUclips videos on the subject I have learnt so much about your country, your abundant amount of gorgeous native plants, the fact that you hybridise, and that you have a winter season that wipes your garden out as well as how quickly in spring you'd almost never know. We were lucky enough here in Adelaide South Australia to have some of our nurseries buy Perrenials from interstate growers within the past two years and I got my hands on some of the most delightful purple flowering Asters which just might be my favourite. Definitely hard to choose though when you consider Dahlias. Zinnias are amazing if they stay healthy. I can't grow them. Not enough sunshine and more than likely too much water. Having said that though I have had self seeded Cosmos get 9 feet tall two years in a row in my back garden so they obviously love lots of water. Echinacea are kind of rare to find. I've got two cats on my lap whilst I'm drinking my morning pot of tea but I really want to disturb them (they are tiny Devon Rex cats)
so I can find the tags for the purple Aster I'm saying is my favourite, especially being Perrenials and not minding a ton of awful tap water. Doesn't usually rain much here. I think we're the driest State in the driest country... Is that true? Going to have to Google that one.
Could only find one tag Aster 'Eventide'. It's quite possible may have a different name in your country. And the one my Mum got was even more beautiful in colour. I can't recall the name of Mums, I ordered two, one for me and one for my sister well over a year ago... Still haven't come in to stock x 🗽🌺💮🌸🙏😇🇦🇺🕊️
Very interesting, Jim, this really does connect a lot of dots. I had no idea so many of my favorite plants are in the aster family. It provides a whole new perspective on the garden! Thanks!
Thanks for watching
Those black eyed Susan’s are stunning.🌸💚🙃
Giving the bee a ride ... that made me laugh :-)
Love your tours and plant showcase videos but I really love when you bring education to your videos! There’s lots of gardeners but not enough knowledgeable horticultural nerds making RUclips content. Thank you so much for all the work you do! It’s so appreciated!
Me too!
I love the way your garden is a mix of plants you love, rather than a "design".
I'm always amazed at your knowledge and the the variety of flowers in your yard this summer is incredible.
Many Thanks!
Love this type of programme, viz., about specific perennials and associated “families”. Pleased you intend more of these.
Lettuce?! Really enjoyed this! Looking forward to future videos in this series.
You are such a good teacher. I learned so much from this video
I love your garden!! We have many of the same plants her in zone 8a in TX. Its been a huge struggle to just keep them alive this year bc its been already 50 days of 100° or more. 2 winters ago we had -15 degrees for 11 days and lost so many plants but replaced them with plants that can withstand those and our 🌞 and heat! So far those are doing well but we have only had 3 inches of rain so far this year. So watching your videos have been informative on how to keep the roots cool and damp with mulch and slightly trimming them back! Great ideas! We mulch for the first time this year and it's been a water saver!! So now I will do some light pruning and see if that can help also. Thanks again!! Happy Gardening 🌻
Jim, thanks to you, I've learned something new again today! I didn't know that the Asteraceae family of flowers included such a wide variety of plants from all over the world which is fascinating. This gives me a new interest in plant species and subspecies! I hope you a Stephany are enjoying the summer! ~Margie🌿🦋💕
Love this! Do more like this please. You could break it down a little further. Oh my favorite echinace!
I had no idea that all of those beauties are part of the aster family. Your garden is looking so beautiful!
My favourite are dahlias too but my border terrier. loves echinacea and zinnia best. I make sure there are enough for both of us. He also love munching on my vegetables :)
Your black eyed Susan’s look amazing. They are so full and the petals are so wide and they even overlap a bit. Is that a certain variety? Totally eye catching!
I have 2 favorites out of the asteraceae group! Dahlias are number one, when my wife and I got married, dahlias were our main flower at our wedding! Rudbeckia is a very very close second for me, I just love them!
Love your videos!!!!
Love this type of video! The detail, science, nomenclature, taxonomy :chefkiss:
I personally love the smell of marigolds (as well as lantana).
Never knew this info.. I suppose here on gulf coast purple echinacea works great here! Thanks Jim love this!!
I have several tall late blooming asters I love. They will blossom in August or September.
Thanks for info about the aster family.
Thank you for sharing Jim
Grogeous Flowers
🌻🐝
Your flowers are all so gorgeous! I particularly loved the clear yellow rudbeckia! For some reason those catch my eye every time!
Ahhhhh - it’s all coming together now…
My favorite are cosmos - in South Africa they line the highways around Easter and are breathtaking!
I would love to learn about more plant families. Also, any Dahlia staking tips would be appreciated.
I love all of them, but zinnias and cosmos are the ones that always steal the show in my garden beds - when they haven't been eaten by rabbits of course. Can't wait for the next vid in this series!
Hello! Very interesting and beautiful video with my favorite colors. Thank you for sharing valuable information💐🌻👌🌿
Back -eyed Susans are my fav! Great video!
Love learning from your plant knowledge. All the flowers in your garden look great.
This was so educational! Didn’t know liatris and solidago are in the aster family and they’re our favorites.
I learned more in this one video than I have after watching a years worth of other RUclips content! You’re the best!
This video was perfectly timed! I’m reading the book “Attracting Beneficial Bugs to Your Garden: A Natural Approach to Pest Control” and many of the plants you mentioned are listed in Jessica Walliser’s book. With such a diverse garden as yours Jim, I’m pretty sure you have A LOT of beneficial bugs. 🙂
Great video! Zinnias are prolly my fav.
My fave? SUNFLOWERS! 🌻🌻🌻
Asters are my favorite family overall, but I have a particular fondness for Sunflowers. I highly recommend Arikara Sunflowers. They grow tall very tall, but are quite sturdy.
Learned a lot thanks for the information. Will be looking at my flowers differently now.
Jim, thanks for making those connections for me. I'm surprised how many of the same flowers we have in our gardens and I didn't realize they were 'related' to each other. Kind of explains why we like the ones we have planted over the years. Like you, our favorite has become the dahlias and they are just now blooming (zone 6B Kentucky). Your gardens are looking great this year.
Hello neighbor!, 6b also in Bowling Green
@@oakleyjack7600 Howdy, neighbor. We are up in Crestwood getting plenty of rain this week! Happy gardening.
I just planted False Aster "Snowbank" in a very wet area of the garden. The plant instructions mention they do well in wet soil 🤞
Thanks for sharing. I am going to concentrate on Asters for my garden from now on.
Wow, I had no idea. Thanks for sharing and explaining about this amazing group of plants!
Wow, I'm glad I watch your videos. They are very educational. 🙂🙂
Definitely learned something new. Seems like all the things I succeeded with sowing seeds with are in the aster family! Great to know.
Bicolor zinnias are a real favorite the last several years. I found the seeds at several websites/catalogues when I started plants from seeds in 2020. Haven’t found any at the nurseries and passerby always comment on them.
Wow i feel really dumb i didnt know this. I love the tall real airy asters that have light purple flowers on them and bloom in fall. Everything looks great! I am battling the rabbits too this is the first year ive had problems with them eating my Marigolds! They also chewed down one of my Dahlias and i think they are also chewing on my Autumn joy Sedum 😠
It's fascinating to learn about these connections. Thanks for the video!
My favorites are dahlias and zinnias! Didn’t know they were in such a big family!
Great tutorial. I am in the same boat as most of the commentators below....so much I did not know. :)
Zinnias are my favorite..I learned some interesting facts about my coneflower. Thanks
Supposedly Rudbeckia lacinata is edible. One article I saw mentioned cooking it bacon grease (but then anything in bacon grease is good).
That's bacon grease with a side of greens
very informative. I learned a lot. Thank you. I enjoy all of your videos
Cosmos and daisy’s are my favorites 🌼🐝
wow i had no idea how vast this aster group was! your plants look so healthy! i'm struggling w/ daisies (maybe because i don't how to take care of them properly) but i do love my liatris & coneflowers.
Very interesting, I was surprised by some of the plants in this family.
As a newbie gardener who planted a few seed packets that only gave me beautiful leaves and no blooms your video today solved a mystery....they are Asters! Now need to figure out why nothing bloomed 😂 to fix that going forward!
Asters bloom in the fall, so with patience yours may still put on a show.
Great series I had no idea look forward to some more interesting plant families. Favorite is dahlia followed by coneflower.
Such good info, would have never guessed all those in the same family. Your garden looks so lush! My Michigan garden is starting to fade. Although my China Asters are blooming and beautiful...first year growing from seed. Also first year growing Monch and Sheffield Aster, can't wait to see the color on those.
Loved this video. I learned something new.
Beautiful Jim 🌸💕🌸
Wow, very interesting.
Loved this video. It’s cool that you grouped them this way.
Very interesting about the Aster family and number of related plants. I have some of the purple Liatris and will now look at those in a different way.
Your rudbeckias are gorgeous.
I m just jealous. Wow, I be been looking for these. I live in zone 10a, and have a hard time finding certain plants.
My fav is echinacea with coreopsis rosea being a close second
Cone flowers are a favorite for me. I enjoy Asters as well. Dahlias are new to me but I hope to plant some in the next year.
Stokes Aster is a new plant in my landscape this year
Really enjoyed this! Thank you as always!
Thanks Jim!
Always have informative!
Love this! Did not know these were related. Very helpful info!
They're all stars in my book,but I have to agree with you on the dahlias. I grew my first dahlia last year and I suddenly felt like a "real" gardener! My husband is eager to add fall-blooming asters which are his all-time favorite flower. Do you have any recommendations? I'm eager to share this video with him and we are both eager to fill every nook and cranny with beautiful and interesting things like your family does. Thanks so much!
Hello Christine, that's great that you're expanding the plant types you grow. For anyone to be able to give recommendations to you, you'll need to give your climate zone (so we know how cold it gets in the winter where you are) and also what is your location? You don't have to give a city name, but if you're in the US, give a state and a region in the state. For example, I'm in southeast Iowa, zone 5b. Knowing the state and region will help us know other climate info, such as rainfall and how much heat you get in summer. Also, you could describe what the weather is like where you are.
Jim, your flowers are gorgeous!! My sunflowers are in bloom too! In Durham and the heat is so so much worse than home in North VA. How do you manage??
This was a fabulous tour, so fun and interesting, thank you! You asked a while back what flower people most look forward to blooming every year and at the time I said coreopsis because they are so bright and sunny in the Spring garden, but I've changed my mind and have to Liatris!! I love it so much! The bees absolutely swarm it, and it reminds of flowers from the Southwest where I'm from. It stands tall and adds so much interest and an unusual texture to the garden. -I actually love all flowers though, so I'm likely to change from hour to hour-;)
I learned a lot! Thank you 🙏🏽
Thanks for the information ❤
Wow the liatris was a surprise to me. I'm guessing the 2nd largest plant family to aster is the mint family as I can think of alot of plants in the mint family. One Ik very well as it tries to take over everything here that is creeping Charlie. Then obviously saliva's, culinary mint, sage, etc anything with a square stem and has a fragrance is the key identifiers
QUESTION Is coreopsis in that daisy family of plants? Thank you for educating us; I learn so much from you. Your love your variety of plants & colors.
Can you give the cultivar name on the rudbeckia you were crouching behind?
Thank you
This is so interesting!
There’s a lot of variety in black eyed susans, but yours are spectacular. How can I get some?
Oh wow I see that you use an open tall tomato cage to help support your dahlias. Do you recommend that instead of twine lashes to support poles? Seems like a great idea that I never thought about!
Oooh....what was that shrub next to the pink echinacea at 1'50"? The leaves had magenta veins...is it celosia?
I love all of them! What was the sunflower (where you were unknowingly giving the bee a ride)? I haven’t seen you highlight that one before.
I had some volunteer dark mahogany sunflowers come up in the vegetable garden where I used the Soil cube compost. I have 3 plants over 10ft tall! Wonder where they'll show up next year? We're finally getting some rain in N. Georgia but we need some good soakers.
Great overview Jim. You should do one on another huge worldwide family, Lamiaceae. I’d be in trouble if I couldn’t grow any of those, given all the deer and rabbits we have.
It's done. It's going up Monday. Thanks for watching!
@@JimPutnam Nice! Looking forward to it.
So informative! Thank you for being so thorough. And my favorites are dahlias as well I’ve had much success with them. But I also love zinnias but for some Reason this year I’ve had trouble with them. I don’t know if it’s the heat or if they are germinating in the bunnies are munching on them?
very interesting
Hey Jim, another good video… are joe pye weed in the aster family… ? How is yours doing this year I have not seen it mentioned since the spring … my regular variety has now surpassed 10’ tall …. Thanks
love this
My liatris is leaning over similar to yours. Is this due to just growing too fast or is that typical for liatris? First time growing it
Great video. I had no idea how many of these were in the same family! I’m in Atlanta zone 7b and struggling to keep purple coneflower alive from year to year. They die out by the end of summer. I’ve grown echinacea purpurea and pow wow. They seem to grow great in other gardens in my neighborhood. Any ideas what I might need to do differently?
We are in Zone 8 NC - I struggled for years with cone flowers, eventually bought seed in bulk (>1000) and tossed them where I wanted them to grow. Over the years I have a patch that has developed there and when I deadhead I drop the heads into the same area. Just my experience.
I wonder if Coreopsis is a member of the Aster family? I have some goldenrod-colored variety that is perennial and does very well in early to mid-spring, blooming around a huge front-yard boulder. It’s blossoms remind me of a smaller rudbeckia-looking bloom. That is one of my favorite blooming perennials.
Yes!!
Great education!
What is the name of the particular rudbeckia you are kneeling by at the end?
Prairie Sun.
@@JimPutnam thanks!
The yellow sunflower is absolutely beautiful as is all your plants. I was interested I knowing the name if possible. I love your videos and thanks for such great content
Italian White mislabeled seed
@@JimPutnam thank you so much! its so beautiful as I previously said. I will be looking for it to plant in my garden ! Thanks again!
I need plants for wet area? (Clay base)
Jim - let me know what to research- thanks.😊
Hello, Jim! What is the name of the beautiful dahlia at 9:45?
I just picked up a Sunbeckia Carolina at HD. i need to get it out if it’s can because it’s wilting easily. Would these come back for us in 7b ? I have noticed several plants I have bought from HD have been planted it what looks like sawdust. They just go downhill for me when I bring them home. I’ve also noticed a lot of mislabeling.
Interesting.
Really want Mexican sunflower
It’s funny to me that virtually all of the flowers in my garden are in this family.
What is that gorgeous shrub/tree with the white blooms in the middle of the screen during your intro???
I believe that's an "Empress of china " Dogwood.
@@andydzieciaszek586
Thank you for responding!! That’s a beautiful specimen!!!
