Let me take you around my suburban Houston Garden at the very end of April. Most of the roses have just finished their first round of blooms and are working on their next. The big leaf hydrangeas are starting their show for the season while the panicle hydrangeas are just leafing out. The dahlias are just putting on some bulk while the annuals are just starting to show some color. And last but not the least are the veggies that are getting ready to have a good season. One thing I can promise is that the next garden tour will have a lot more annual and perennial color. Also have some drone shots at the end, so stay around and enjoy the video.

how in the world do you manage to keep your lilac alive in our "lovely" Houston climate?:). also, I've given up trying to grow hydrangeas here, surprised to see how many you have. great garden by the way!

I just pay some attention to the microclimate for each plant. The lilac gets only morning sun. And by early summer I have the hibiscus and the limelight and the hollyhock offer it some extra shade. Also I picked the one that is slightly better suited to heat and humidity based on reviews. As for hydrangeas, you can never have too many in my opinion. I just counted that I have over 30 of all different kinds planted at various points over the past 5-6 years. All have drip irrigation so there is consistent moisture. And except for a couple of limelight hydrangeas, they get at most a half day sun or mostly filtered sun. I will share videos as the season progresses. I typically like to buy my hydrangeas as small quart pots in the fall and then let it get well rooted over the winter and spring. Some of them need a whole year to settle down and I don’t get blooms until a year and half later but that’s ok with me. Thank you for watching my videos!

So beautiful! I love your plants. Does the superbena come back each year and where did you get the red bud tree?

@AmateurGardener2024 2 месяца назад

Yes it does! The white ones are on their year 2 so I decided to get more of those and the pink cashmere variety. Got the rising sun redbud tree from enchanted forest locally in 2021. Thanks for watching!

@@AmateurGardener2024 thanks for responding. I love enchanted forest in Richmond. I’m going to have to pay them a visit.
