How to Make a Topiary from a Lowe's Clearance Plant - In this video I make a topiary out of a Beehive Holly from the clearance area at Lowe's Home Improvement. It was only $3.00.

The lean of the trunks gives it character ☺️

@JimPutnam 3 года назад

I think so as well!

@ytubechannel997 3 года назад

Fun video. I love the tip about planting it on an angle to make it appear straight. i do that all the time.

Plants like many of us are not perfect. I love the way gardeners embrace the imperfections.

Thank you for continuing to share how a garden can look great without breaking the bank.

@km-ug9jp 3 года назад

Super informative and helpful. Thank you. Would you consider doing a few more simple topiary tutorials? Not many on RU-vid and you're probably the best one for this👍

@katiekane5247 3 года назад

You made a silk purse out of a sows ear Jim! It was destined for the dumpster & now, it's a showpiece. Great look for that container!

@jeanninemorgan3526 3 года назад

Loved this video! Linda Vater has gotten me hooked on trying topiary, and I loved your process/presentation! I must live in the wrong place for clearance plants - my Lowe’s never marks below $10 even for plants that look half dead 😀

@P_Belle 3 года назад

Same here. 50% off is common, with some "rounding down" . This weekend, shrubs went to 75% off @ Lowes. Great quality.

@mahoganyblue2571 3 года назад

@@P_Belle Sure did. I got a nice arborvitae in a 3 gallon pot for $7.

@P_Belle 3 года назад

@@mahoganyblue2571 - better deals than me! I loaded up at 50% off, because I always think buying later means distressed plants. At 50%, $130 got me 6 Monrovia distyllium (3g), a 6g GG, and 2 Monrovia jasmine(2g). At 75% off, got a 1 ft GrnMtn Boxw and full Lorapetaleum (both 2g) for $15.

@mahoganyblue2571 3 года назад

@@P_Belle those are good deals too.

@katiekane5247 3 года назад

@@P_Belle they're ALL making room for Christmas trees, good profit margin on those. Especially since many will have to buy another BEFORE Christmas. Cut trees just don't look good after over a month! What annoys me is that many of us, especially in the south, are still actively planting. Home Depot had almost NO soil amendments, few containers & VERY few plants. Garden Center NOT tree lot, grrr

@TheEnthusiasticGardener 3 года назад

Love this. You only cut off 4 dead bits and already it was a topiary! I’m trying this 😊

@JimPutnam 3 года назад

It really isn't very hard. Sometimes it can take a season to work it out, but this one was fine immediately.

Love the idea of practicing topiary skills on a clearance plant!!! Brilliant! As always, so appreciate all the great gardening content you share!

@dianegentry3255 3 года назад

I have trouble finding Single trunk plants to do topiary. This was a great video! Thanks Jim! Never thought of using these plants. Gonna give it a try!

@lisawalters5482 3 года назад

Excellent idea to find a clearance plant and try to topiary. I have wanted to for several years but didn’t want to waste the money! Now I can! Awesome. Thank so much for tips and inspiration. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

@loriswain8140 3 года назад

I love the way you get right after the prune! I love clearance rack finds!! Thx Jim.

@geenaw3809 3 года назад

What a great idea, Jim. I always visit the clearance section in Home Depot and Lowes, but I'm never brave enough to purchase anything. Never thought to check the roots!

@donnasantamaria8317 3 года назад

Jim, loved watching you turn the little ugly duckling into a beautiful swan. And I like that you chose leaving the angled trunk. I like wind swept looking plants. I love shopping "death row" clearance plants and nurturing them back to life. So much satisfaction in rescuing these orphans. Thank you for discussing examining the roots. It was very helpful. I bought 5 mugo pines on deep discount. But when I got them home, I discovered the roots were all entirely black. In spite of all my efforts they were to far gone.

@sharonrichardson6563 3 года назад

@lkhawkins4482 3 года назад

You took something simple and struggling and made it into something unique and cute! Well done!

@jenniecrawley4343 3 года назад

I love it! It turned out great. You took something that was on its way to the garbage and turned it into a lovely little topiary. Thx for the inspiration. I too love shopping the clearance rack at Lowe’s. Between you and Linda Vater, I think I can do it too 😊

@Liap 3 года назад

You've just made the plant look totally different, in the most positive way. And in between those ornamental kales = It looks amazing! 👍

@francygeiger9383 3 года назад

@JeanTOM-qb5dm 3 года назад

LOVE LOVE LOVE this video, Jim. I shop Lowe's clearance perpetually and am so thrilled always to find a shrub like this that will look good all year. Showing your viewers how to take a clearance plant and create a plant that will be a centerpiece specimen for years is so helpful and so appreciated! Loved the way you pruned it. I would have planted it as you did as the centerpiece in your container... but it might have looked good planted to one side of your rectangular container and left it to look windswept--perhaps for a more Asian or more contemporary/modernist look.

@b.gardenjourney6215 3 года назад

Great video, Jim. I think that “lean” is quite architectural and it makes it unique! Linda Vater would be so proud of you! 👍🤗

@twotales7337 3 года назад

Totally agree, the stem growing at an angle is great and adds some interest. Good to see you pruning it, very informative. Look forward to seeing your garden come together, walls and all - all very useful.

@lawrencebardenett6148 3 года назад

Jim, This video was great fun. I have my own little potters field full of rescued plants I try to nurse. Great satisfaction in that for me.

@annebeck2208 3 года назад

Thank you, thank you for demystifying clearance plants! Right now our Lowes has 50% everything that is not Christmas plant related...none are distressed...but I didn't know if the normally clearanced plants are beyond hope.

Cool outcome for something that looked scraggly- : “don’t judge beehive holly by its looks. “ I’m sure the original saying didn’t think on gardening only cover of books! Lol. Great inspiration.
