Hi my name is Reed O'Neill, and I live in Pflugerville, Tx. I love your videos a lot! You inspire me to take care of plants and to learn all about them! Thank you so much!
I am brand new to gardening and have really been loving your channel. I stopped watching Netflix to watch these videos so that I can really learn what I am doing. I would love to learn about the 5 best plants for shade. My backyard is almost completely shade due to all the trees from neighboring yards and a couple in my own but I really want to create some visual interest back there. Thanks for all the great videos and inspiration.
Awesome choices......nice to know the difference of the ones you just presented and variety of them, as that can make a huge difference on someone would have passed them over for lack of not knowing how they perform in the winter months....
I would love a pruning series. And or what do do each month in regards to gardening/flowers. 5 things to prep your yard/garden/flowers in feb, march, so on...
I'm a windy zone 3, not the best place for gardening so I was hopeing you could help out. I loved this video and the fact that you said the zone of the plants🤗
Great idea for a series! Border plants that stay green or at least do not die in the winter. I have several of the dwarf Nandina bushes and they are great with different colors all season. Maybe even ground covers too. Thanks. Any video you do will be great and I will watch all of them.
I would love to see suggestions for climbing plants. I have a beautiful arbor in sun and have tried two different plants and failed at both. One was roses and they did beautifully for two years and then died. I can't remember the name of the other one I tried. I would love to see your ideas for how to plant for arbors!!! I love ALL of your videos!!! Thank you!
I would love a 5 for 5 video series. I now live in Florida for 3 years, zone 9a so I love succulents, to say the least. Flowering varieties are nice too. I've lived up north most of my life and I do miss colorful plants. Lots of green down here. But who's complaining. Thanks
All of your videos are awesome and truly inspirational. I love gardening but I have a lot to learn. I have learned so much from you and because of your videos all of my pots and baskets looked amazing all summer this year. Still looks good but I know I need to start switching it out for fall. You truly have a gift for inspiring and I just wanted to say thank you. BM
I love your videos. I would like to see some perennials that bloom most of the summer and what other plants look great with them. Thanks for the videos. I love working with plants.
Would you please consider doing your series for other zones also? The plants today wouldnt work for me in zone 9 since we dont get cold long enough. still thought the plants were awesome & interesting. thanks
Very good idea. I am definitely more comfortable with plants that at least go down to zone 5 since that's what I live in, but I can put something together for warmer climates- it will help me to learn more too! :)
Sansa Stark -WOW, who knew Sansa Stark watches you tube! I would have guessed you would be so busy with winter coming.......I love it. I will definitely look into all of these plant recommendations. Thanks guys! I enjoy these videos so very much, thanks for sharing your time and your sweet personality.
Thanks for info about the Blue Spruce during your video. I didn't know about spider mites living on them. I was going to plant it near my patio. I will move it farther away from people now. Thanks again.
Great Video* I'm currently taking out all my dead grass in my front yard and starting new! This video gave me just the right kind of inspiration. Thank you!
Let's see. Some ideas. Shade plants. Sun loving plants. Low Ph. High Ph. How to care and amend soil. Lawns. Flowering perennials. Annuals. Shrubs edible and ornamental. Trees edible and ornamental (different varieties, sizes-grafted etc.) Plant habit and how to pick the right plant. You could brake it down by plant genus. Just do dogwoods, Japanese maple, etc. Climbers and spreading plants. Deciduous and coniferous and evergreen plants. It is a joy watching your channel. Can't wait for new videos to come out. Admire your courage and ability to get in front of the camera and present so well.
Thanks for the great suggestions for winter interest. I would like to know about planting something for privacy. After the leaves fell we feel exposed to the neighbors and we need something quick growing, tall but not too wide for added privacy year round.
I would love to learn about how to put an outdoor area together. Last year my husband and I bought our house, since then I've let our yard be what it is. This year I want to add our own ideas to the yard.
Plants to cut for house decoration would be good! I know you've mentioned winter berry, dogwood and a few others in videos, it'd be good to plant some things to use in flower arrangements in the house :)
I am in super love with this video and the idea of more. like five best trees or spring interest shrubs or fall interest or five best grasses and five best everything 😂 five best ornamental tree/shrub landscape thillers, five best ground cover or five best landscape edging plants. can't wait!!!! off to go buy me.a winter berry and Holly now 😂
Love, love, LOVE your videos!!!! The Berry Poppins Winterberry made me curious - are the berries a food supply for birds/wildlife? I live on the east coast of PA, (we're in the 6-6a range) and I am interested in adding native plants as well as plants that produce food sources for the birds/wildlife.
this was an awesome video, thank you so much!! I want all of these. last year I planted 7 boxwood and they don't look like they have grown at all, I need these sprinters!
Showing a plan of how you decide what to plant where ? We are on a large property and have various garden beds. Would like to increase the garden area but how do you plan it? Your new house and garden is amazing but how did the original owners plan it all out. Would also love to see your parents garden layout. 🌹🍄🌺🌸🌻🌾💐🌼
Love this and all the shrubs you shared! As for your question, I would love to see what you recommend for specimen trees, but that also goes to a bit warmer zone, maybe 8-9. I was so excited about the dogwood and blue holly, until I saw that they only go to zone 7 and I live in 8b. Maybe I can find something similar in place of those. I've wanted a red-twig dogwood forever, but even more so after seeing how you used those twigs in planters and arrangements! You're so talented, Laura!
Love your videos, they are so educational and fun. I have learned so much. How about a video on your top 5 pest repellent. I have become quite excited about succulents but have been having problems with little gnats flying around and just today I found little tiny worms eating the center of my favorite succulent plant :( I am so sad. Trying to get a handle on it before they are all involved.
Great video very informative! 👍🏼I'd love if you could include the heat tolerance information as well as the cold tolerance. Living in the high desert of SoCal we deal with both weather extremes. It can be a bit of a challenge when choosing appropriate plants. Thx🌳
I'm really concerned about how my garden is going to look in the winter. I have kind of a cottage garden look. Hollyhocks, Annabelle hydrangeas, lavender, autumn joy sedum, purple cone flower. I'm having the hardest time finding some type of evergreen shrub to pop in around it to hold interest in the winter. Unfortunately right now, once everything dies back, its just going to look like a bunch of sticks and a birdbath full of sempervivums 😂😭😂😅 Your videos have been so helpful though!
Awesome video! I am working on re-landscaping my front. I am a corner house with a 7x50 side yard on the street and am trying to find winter interest plants for my zone 9. Almost everything I love goes to sticks in winter. Not very interesting, especially for a corner house.
This question might sound snarky, but I promise it isn't: Laura, how do you incorporate the red berries of a Winterberry or Holly bush with your otherwise "red-free" garden? Do you feel that the red throughout the summer is out of place with all the pinks and lavenders?
I'm in zone 5 also in Northern Colorado. How does elevation effect plants, specifically regarding full sun? I tend to burn everything that I plant in full sun even when the plant is specific for full sun. I burn my vegetables, flowers, everything. Are they just cooking being at 5,000 feet?
Five zone five plants for all seasons. If I were to plant just five plants on my property what would they be for something blooming all year long? Also I have a full acre property of sandy loam, we're currently removing the old locust and elm trees and trying to decide what to replace them with in 2018. I have bees and several wildlife habitats on the property, the trees were mostly taken out by a rough winter and severe windstorm, would love something that looked nice and leant itself neatly to the birds and butterflies. Thanks!
I have a woodland garden I started in the woods beside my house I’m zone 7B and I have lots of ferns and hostas and lilies of the valley but I don’t know what all I can do in the Woodlands shade garden to get four sessions I’m more interested in learning about the fall and winter in the shady area
Hi I tried to grow winterberry or holly but they just don't grow. I have a very fertile soil, my vegetables grow like weed but for some reason holly or winterberry just don't perform. Any advise?
