Go BIG or go home!!! Please, please don’t forget to show regular updates; watching what happens to all the planter’s cohabitants this summer is going to be so much fun! Thank you, Erin! 😊
Erin, I love you and your gardening techniques in addition to your relaxed personality! You don’t appear to take yourself so seriously, but show a great deal of gardening knowledge and confidence ❤❤❤
I watch your videos for this very reason. You come up with the most creative and unusual plant combinations in your containers. This one is going to be a another stunner!
I LOVE this combination of plants!! Will be exciting to see how it all grows over the summer. Should be a bright spot in your Sunday strolls through the garden. 😊♥️
GO, Fiona! If she’s Fiona then #1 needs to be Shrek. Maybe you haven’t seen the movie? Either way, I’m rooting for them both to be glorious. Your container game has gone to the next level lately. I’ve always loved them and modeled some of mine after yours but this one is spectacular. Can’t wait to see the progress updates.
Your container planting this year has inspired me to do some non traditional planting in mine. I am interested to see the progress of the banana and all its companions. The original banana was so interesting to watch thrive 🎉
Those colors are stunning Erin, and I don't know where you find all those amazing plants with such different textures but we sure don't have them around here. Chiquita is going to be one big, flat-out gorgeous woman by Fall. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous. Even while you were explaining what you were going to plant my brain was going hum not sure about this one. But MY WORD ... STUNNING .. LOVE IT🎉
You have taught me to have fun with containers. Can’t wait to see it fill in around beautiful Chiquita. I planted a sunshine ligustrum two years ago in northeast Ohio and it’s doing great.
Thanks for mixing it up and giving us new ideas for our planters. I don't doubt there is and/or will be a run on banana trees at the local nurseries and big box stores because of your videos! 😊
I love the dark purple-burgundy colors with the lime greens and peachy-corals❣️ 😘. I found a pot with two Abyssinian bananas in it last year and called them Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. They grew in the same pot last year and this year they are separated in the ground. 🙃
Ha! Love that you mix it up in containers (and the garden truth be told). If you’re calling 2.0 Chiquita, I think 1.0 needs a name too. I nominate “Hannah”.
Someone in the city of Menomonee Falls must have seen your banana plant as I saw 3 banana plants in the median strip on Appleton Ave. When I saw the plants, I immediately thought of you.
Alright, mine wintered over good. I have an old cast-iron cauldron in my yard I planted it in. Looking forward to seeing Chiquita #1 & 2. Happy planting.
You may have outdone yourself this year! Love it and love all your "experimentation" with your pots this year. Going to be so fun to watch them "grow up"!!!
Love the bromeliads. They are stunning grouped together. Love how you got the colors nailed with all the plants. And I love your choice of music. It's fun, which is what gardening is all about.
Summer is officially here when Erin brings out the bananas! Loving all the colour in that planter. So fun. I am stealing your “recipe” to brighten up some of my planters - I need something that will show up in our Nova Scotia fogbank. 😂
I found your 1st video on winterize the banana plant. I found this second video I pray that it worked. I have my 2yr old banana tree in the grown NJ for first time. My problem at my mom's house is space. We place all the plants in the basement lol is truly a jungle.
Yay!!! Banana time! What a gorgeous planter you put together, and if Chiquita is anything like the other one, she ain't gonna be little, that's for sure. So fun! Thanks for sharing with us!
I can’t wait to see this one grow together! It looks beautiful already! I have totally been into the “sunset/sunrise” colored plants the last 2 years! I am crossing my fingers for you and that banana today though! This wind is brutal! I found one of my favorite plants snapped off. And an oriole nest fell out of its tree. 😢
Absolutely here for the banana plant love the Chiquita. I’ll have to find a name for my banana plant and then of course we need updates as well as we need the video on when you bring banana one out.
I use Sunshine Lugustrum in my southern garden as an accent plant. I have them in a very sunny border about 15 ft apart in with mostly dark green bushes and roses and dahalias.
Hi! I'm in Oklahoma, zone 7. I also grow red mohogamy hibiscus. I take cuttings of mine before the first frost. They root easily in water and the cuttings bloom indoors for me!
Go BIG or go home!!! Please, please don’t forget to show regular updates; watching what happens to all the planter’s cohabitants this summer is going to be so much fun! Thank you, Erin! 😊
Agree! Yes, PLEASE. Erin!!!
Banana #1 should be known as The Top Banana.
Wow nice❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"It's Banana Time!" LOL!
Your creativity with planters is so much fun to. watch. You never do what everyone else is doing and I love that!
Lol 😂 "Hang in there Chiquita". I love my banana plants in Texas. Looks great.
Nailed it!!!! That is gorgeous. I’m embarrassed about my sad little banana plant, lol.
Oh la! la! My goodness this planter is going to be a winner this year.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the breeze doesn’t uproot Chiquita before tomorrow morning!!!
Chiquita Banana in that gorgeous planter with view of climbing hydrangea in the background equals chefs kiss if I ever saw one.
Erin, I love you and your gardening techniques in addition to your relaxed personality! You don’t appear to take yourself so seriously, but show a great deal of gardening knowledge and confidence ❤❤❤
Love how chiquita looks like she’s waving at us with her fronds in the breeze 😊
Love how you throw in sailing terms into your gardening.
My husband just walked by and said "Wow, that's a BIG container"! 😆
You are the most creative person I've ever seen with planters...not to mention your gardens. Can't wait to see this in August.
I watch your videos for this very reason. You come up with the most creative and unusual plant combinations in your containers. This one is going to be a another stunner!
Love this container too. All the different plants adds so much interest.
Yay Chiquita is back!,🍌🌱. She’s stunning and gets more beautiful every year! ❤
You nailed the colors with this one. Can’t wait to watch it grow up and fill out
I LOVE this combination of plants!! Will be exciting to see how it all grows over the summer. Should be a bright spot in your Sunday strolls through the garden. 😊♥️
Gorgeous!!! Love that banana and the bromeliads! Go Fiona Sunrise!!! Go banana!
Welcome Chiquita! Looking for forward the progress on this beautiful pot arrangement!
So excited to see this planter progress! Grow little Fiona sunrise jasmine,grow!!!
GO, Fiona! If she’s Fiona then #1 needs to be Shrek. Maybe you haven’t seen the movie? Either way, I’m rooting for them both to be glorious. Your container game has gone to the next level lately.

Absolutely gorgeous. Even while you were explaining what you were going to plant my brain was going hum not sure about this one. But MY WORD ... STUNNING ..
LOVE IT🎉
Chiquita and Fiona 👏👏👏 Thanks for sharing 👍❤️🙂
Now that is some real 🐒business. Keep monkeying around! You are an inspiration.
Excited to see how Chiquita does! Enjoy your channel
You have taught me to have fun with containers. Can’t wait to see it fill in around beautiful Chiquita. I planted a sunshine ligustrum two years ago in northeast Ohio and it’s doing great.
Nothing shy about that planter! Wowza!
Go Fiona! Go Fiona! Looking forward to updates! Gorgeous at the get-go!
Return of the Bananas!
👏 Anxious to know where you’ll put #1
C’mon Fiona 👏💪
A possible name for Original Banana, What about "Dole"? You would have a Dole banana and a Chiquita banana. Just a thought
Thanks for mixing it up and giving us new ideas for our planters. I don't doubt there is and/or will be a run on banana trees at the local nurseries and big box stores because of your videos! 😊
Chiquita Banana looks spectacular! I hope you’ll show us the planting of Top Banana soon.
Love those bromeliads! So fun to see some out-of-the-box and adventurous planting!
OMG! Erin, those bromiliads!!!
Erin I bought a banana plant and now I need a bigger pot😃 love your ideas💕💕💕
My goodness, Erin! 😳😍😍Gorgeous planter.
Erin, you might have to temporarily stake that banana. Colorful! Excited to see that pot grow. My banana is smaller, but will grow! ❤
I love the dark purple-burgundy colors with the lime greens and peachy-corals❣️ 😘. I found a pot with two Abyssinian bananas in it last year and called them Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. They grew in the same pot last year and this year they are separated in the ground. 🙃
This is the huge pot I've seen so far and it's absolutely beautiful with all the plants combinations! go go Banana Chiquita!
Ha! Love that you mix it up in containers (and the garden truth be told). If you’re calling 2.0 Chiquita, I think 1.0 needs a name too. I nominate “Hannah”.
Thank you, Erin. 😊
Someone in the city of Menomonee Falls must have seen your banana plant as I saw 3 banana plants in the median strip on Appleton Ave. When I saw the plants, I immediately thought of you.
That’s one fun planter. Loads to look forward to. Exciting!
❤😊 excited. it's Banana time.
That is a wow wee planter! Love it! 🌿🌿🌿 🍌
Awesome Erin, looking forward to seeing this pot explode with growth and color! 🤩
Alright, mine wintered over good. I have an old cast-iron cauldron in my yard I planted it in. Looking forward to seeing Chiquita #1 & 2. Happy planting.
Erin You have the best music selections !!
I sure enjoy your videos and enthusiasm. Looking forward to another great container. Love the variety of plants!
You may have outdone yourself this year! Love it and love all your "experimentation" with your pots this year. Going to be so fun to watch them "grow up"!!!

Your planters are always so fun. Not your ordinary planter. Super style. Love it. 💗💗💗
Beautiful pot! Colors are striking!
Love the container mix, it is so colorful and fun!
Fantastic sunrise coloured planter 🌞
I found your 1st video on winterize the banana plant. I found this second video I pray that it worked. I have my 2yr old banana tree in the grown NJ for first time. My problem at my mom's house is space. We place all the plants in the basement lol is truly a jungle.
I love Chiquita!
Yay!!! Banana time! What a gorgeous planter you put together, and if Chiquita is anything like the other one, she ain't gonna be little, that's for sure. So fun! Thanks for sharing with us!
I love Missy Chiquita ♡♡♡ You're making me want a banana 😂
Love all the textures along with foliage colors. Will enjoy following its progress.❤
I can’t wait to see this one grow together! It looks beautiful already! I have totally been into the “sunset/sunrise” colored plants the last 2 years! I am crossing my fingers for you and that banana today though! This wind is brutal! I found one of my favorite plants snapped off. And an oriole nest fell out of its tree. 😢
I actually love Mahogany Splendor Hibiscus and Ligustrum for using in cut flower arrangements!
Chiquita is a big girl!
Really loved the color combos and textures ❤
Can’t wait to watch this fill in
Erin I did those same colors in the front of my house. 😂 It looks beautiful! That pot is going to be stunning! Can’t wait to see it in a month! 🙌🏻
That’s going to be fabulous!
Love the tropicals 😊
Wow, you fill a pot 👍💕💕
Thanks Erin, I can’t wait to see that container fill in ! 💐💚🙃
Oh!!! Stunning!! I LOVE IT!…… Hands down best so far,.. and let me tell you i was a bit skeptical,… I should have known not to doubt your mad skills!
Absolutely here for the banana plant love the Chiquita. I’ll have to find a name for my banana plant and then of course we need updates as well as we need the video on when you bring banana one out.
I always enjoy your videos they're so cool.
I use Sunshine Lugustrum in my southern garden as an accent plant. I have them in a very sunny border about 15 ft apart in with mostly dark green bushes and roses and dahalias.
Yay! Banana time! The plant selection in that container is spectacular!
You nailed it, bigtime!
I enjoyed this so much Erin
Ooo such a tropical flair with the banana and bromeliads 🤩 love it and all the foliage colors!
Another container hit. We will need planter updates throughout the summer!
Beautiful planter, chiquita banana, and the other plant selections, They are the bees knees.
Love this planter. Going to find a Fiona sunrise
We’ve got your back Fiona 🧡 🥰
Absolutely Fabulous
Really enjoying your much increased presence this season.
LOVE the combo
You go girl!
I think you nailed all the colors that are displayed in the banana leaves alone. It will be fun to see how everything fills out.
Banana time! WOO-HOO
Beautiful colors!
Hi! I'm in Oklahoma, zone 7. I also grow red mohogamy hibiscus. I take cuttings of mine before the first frost. They root easily in water and the cuttings bloom indoors for me!
Your yard is beautiful. Great place for a wedding or a garden party.
Gorgeous!
It’s always fun planting with you! Come on Fiona you can do it!! 😊
