Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed the video ☺

Wow!! That is so awesome! The variety of color they provide is so nice. You will definitely need to let us know how it compares to your Illinois garden this year! 🤗☀

Unless you were transferred, you couldn't take the COLD any longer! 😂 I don't blame you, but TX gets SO HOT. Culture Shock! ☺️ Enjoy your Spirea challenge!! - from Chicagoland

@@ginafriend1690 haha, yes we were transferred but we have family down here so it’s good to be close to them. We moved from Chicagoland and I miss it so much! Yes, we had a lovely winter down here but I guarantee you have a lovelier summer up there! 🤣

I’m in Chicago, Illinois. Did you grow a Native variety? If so, which one?

@@gardenofshrubs5970 I can agree to that! Cheers! 😊

Thank you so much! We wanted to make it fun but make sure it has all the information as well ☺

Yay! Double Play Doozie is such a great plant ☺

Spirea are such solid plants and have such diverse foliage coloring, they're great! 🤗

Thanks so much! ☺

Thanks, Rick!

They really are! That is a great idea! We will need to make a video on rhododendrons 🤗

🤗🥰

Double Play Doozie is a reblooming spirea so as it gets established more in its new home, you should see some of those later blooms! How does the foliage on the plant look?

@@pwcolorchoice The foliage seems okay, not fading out at all.

@@commodityjane Okay great! I'd give it some more time to get established, if you notice it having any issues moving forward please don't hesitate to reach out!

@@pwcolorchoice Thanks for your kind response!

So glad you enjoyed the video! Bridal Wreath spirea will benefit from a rejuvenation prune when it's getting a bit leggy, so you can cut it almost to the ground to help encourage more healthy new growth 🙂

Powdery mildew is more likely to occur in humid areas that don't have good air circulation, avoid planting plants too closely to one another, overhead watering can also increase the risk of powdery mildew. Because it is a fungus, removing infected leaves and cleaning up the fallen ones around the plant can help to minimize it.

Thanks for your question! To be sure we're giving the best advice, could you send a photo of your plants to our feedback line? www.provenwinnerscolorchoice.com/contact-us/

So glad you enjoyed the video! ☺ Whether or not a plant sets seed, and if that seed is viable if it does set - is a function of the female portions of a plant's reproductive system. Since pollen is the male gametophyte of a plant, its presence has no bearing on a plant's sterility. So pollen and nectar can both be abundant in a flower but it would be considered sterile because no seed develops from pollination.

Most likely, the plant is simply going dormant due to the time of year, and that's completely normal. If you'd like to reach out to us here with some photos, that would help us give you the very best advice. If you are in USDA zone 6b, the loropetalum will probably not survive winter outdoors, so I would suggest trying to overwinter that in a cool, bright spot indoors with good air circulation. It still may not survive, as this will be a stressful situation for it, but it will have a better chance than being outdoors. You can send your message and add photos from this link, www.provenwinners.com/feedback

It will come back as multiple shoots - I don't think they're likely to be excessive, but it would depend on the age of the plant, as well as how much water and nutrients it receives.

That can be very annoying! The best method for helping with this is to use gardening gloves and your hose to wash off the aphids, using your hands to rub the little buggers off the foliage.

Can you explain what you mean by "what happened to the spireas?" please? ☺

So sorry, I mistaken your video with another.

@@mannysmith1962 No problem at all! ☺

Thanks so much! Yes May Bush is a Spiraea cantoniensis ‘Lanceata’ ☺

Thank you
