Hi! We're Eric and Christopher from Grow For Me Gardening, your go-to experts for gardening in Zone 5b/6a Upstate New York! With our contemporary cottage garden aesthetic and a stunning collection of over 130 hydrangeas and 50 roses, we've mastered the art of starting a new garden from the ground up. Join us as we cultivate beauty, flowers, and fun in our garden.
Your ver6 first video inspired me to get 3 Peachberry Ice to go the with Ever After Veronica. I have them in pots ready to be planted and I’m same zone as you in NE Pennsylvania. Would you share how you plant your coral bells for success so they keep coming back? Hoe deep, do you add amendments, plant high etc? I planted a different variety two years ago and they didn’t return. The local garden center tells me they can be iffy in our zones as winter wet (snow) rots them. I’m in love with your combination drift and want mine to look as good. 😍 Love your gardens and videos!
Great haul, looking forward to seeing them in your garden, remember when you run out of room simply get rid of more lawn, you still have a lot of room in the front yard😁we have an acre and a half landscaped and a lot of the lawn is gone at this point, enjoy the weekend🌞
I love all the plants you picked for your garden! Just a suggestion: I would love if all the you tubers would list the plants they are talking about in the notes so we can write them down without trying to hurry to write them down and missing content.
For the deck, a lovely weeping norway spruce or other weeping evergreen would be fantastic and take some room to be a great background set for other plants.
For tomatoes in a container, try Better Boy. They are my favorite because the taste good, are smaller than beefsteak but bigger than romas, can be pruned short or tall, withstand all kinds of weather and abuse.
You might want to try paradigm hosta, too. I have Hudson Bay and Paradigm. Both do extremely well. My Paradigm gets more light and has extremely gorgeous color variations in the leaves. Am definitely getting more of it❤
How are the Limelight Prime hydrangeas doing on the west wall? I planted 6 of them thinking it’s a North wall and it just hit me that they’re always under the shade the house is throwing. They’re doing great and blooming like crazy and not getting burned from the sun (for once :D) but I’m worried next year they might not have enough sun to bloom again. Ps: your garden is absolutely stunning!
I have about $500+ in my Proven Winners Cart LOL, havent had the nerve to hit the Buy Now button! Y'all gonna run outta of room and gonna have to buy more land!!!
I'm super excited for you guys and looking forward to the upcoming videos! I feel like you're a little mad at your limelight hedge, am i right? I also have one and feel that way at times. I'm so excited that you're adding so many of the heuchera and family and hosta to your gardens. I'm hoping for some ideas to bounce off of!! Thanks for another great video!
I got a banana cream 2 in July. Was worried because we were having such high temperatures and a drought. But i watered it pretty often and just a few days ago it bloomed. I was so excited. 😊
Love your new plants. I just had my PW plants a month ago. I got my Kinsley honeysuckle. WARNING - Since you guys live a mile from me and have a forest in the back like me, those Rabbits love dianthus. They ignore the ones in our Front Light Pole bed but any in the back were eaten. I have used Plantskd and they ignore it.
Good luck with the dianthus vs rabbits. I finally dug mine up and put them in containers because the rabbits won’t leave the flowers alone. They don’t mess with the foliage. But they chew off every single bloom stalk and just leave it on the ground.
Love watching these guys. Their gardens are stunning. Love hearing their tips and get a chuckle when they stumble on the name of a plant here and there. Looking forward to seeing more of them and their beautiful gardens.
If you order flowers bulbs you could try some Eremurus, the leafs dissapear after they bloomed, but they come back the next year (but if they get too much water the roots rot). Montbretias are also beautiful or camassisa. And Pulsatilla vulgaris is also a beautiful spring flower (not sure if you can buy it in the USA). It's a perennial native in Europe.
Some dianthus are not very long lasting. If this one dies you could try out Dianthus gratianopolitanus e.g. 'Eydangeri' or a different variety. It's long lasting, but doesn't like sour soil , it likes the opposite, is it called chalk soil? Sorry, I don't know the English word for it.
I planted a banana cream II this summer too. I haven't seen it bloom yet because all the buds and blooms were cut off by the garden center so I'm excited to see it bloom next year 😊
@@growformegardening yes I saw that and made me more excited to see mine bloom. I also planted a raspberry truffle Echinacea and the squirrels keep chewing all the buds before they bloom but it has made the plant grow stronger and more healthy so maybe they are helping for once lol 😆 🤣. Just hope it's because they are new and they leave them alone next year.
I’m in a very hot zone and mostly landscape plant but I absolutely love her channel and subscribe because she’s a genius at container planting. I hear you say Anenome a lot. It’s Anemone.
