Hi, My wife and I, we're wondering if you plan to take us back to your parents garden to see how the hedge is doing, and the color, thanks for sharing.Blessings! !!!!!
I love when you do hydrangea videos! I would love to see more information on signs of problems like scorched leaves and brown spots, etc. I love your videos! Keep it up!
I live in Florida and have alot of potted hydrangeas. The best tip I can give to any owner of this plant is put them on a mist system with a timer. When they get the same amount of water consistantly every day it makes a big difference. Good luck ya'll
We're trying a bobo hydrangea foundation planting this year. Had to rip out a lot of red roses in the spring because of excessive damage from voles. The roses were still viable and in fact grew back several inches a month later, but we decided to change things up. We gave the young roses to young neighbors who are just planting up their sunny garden, and set up rsome ed beauty holly and a couple of fragrant roses from David Austin for the front (away from house) of the foundation, and putting a bobo hedge in for the house where their height and width doesn't reach the house itself.. Likely we'll plant up with various pollinators among them, as well for some additional color lower to the ground. These videos are terrific and have helped us figure out our various sections of garden. Thanks, Laura and Garden Answer!
I just planted a Bobo hydrangea three days ago. I bought it because of one of your videos. It has a lot of buds. Can't wait for it to bloom. Love vet your videos. First thing I look for in the morning.
Gorgeous hydrangeas! I planted a hydrangea about 3 years ago in my little flower bed and I just noticed yesterday that for the first time ever, I have a flower bud on it! It's only 1 so far, but I'm just thrilled! Haha!
I have Little Limes and they have done really well here in Oklahoma where it can get to 100 degrees in the summer. I have really been wanting to add some Bobos...going to have to add to my fall plant list! Thanks for the video!
Would you do a tour of your parents garden? (If it's ok with them). From the bits and pieces you've shown it looks beautiful and seems to be a different style than yours. It would be very interesting. (I'm sure your schedule is already packed 😅)
You guys need to stop asking to see the garden. Like Laura said, this is her parents' garden, not hers, otherwise she would have made a tour video. For some people a garden at home is a private outdoor space so stop being so nosy and just enjoy the videos Laura choose to make for us.
Foliage Fan RU-vid is an interactive platform. A polite request is not nosiness. Hopefully we can all continue to be inspired by the content and community that Garden Answers creates.
Will there be a video about climbing hydrangeas? I would love to learn more about them . Love the fact that you uploading everyday now. Greetings from Ireland :)
wow!! I can't wait to see them on full bloom!! I just planted a White Flowering Dogwood Tree in my front yard about a month ago, & it's just doing AMAZING! tfs, great video!
I just planted a Bobo a few weeks ago! As well as one called Candy Apple, supposed to be a smaller version of Limelight. Would love to see an update on how this looks when it blooms! :)
I honestly, for the life of me, can't imagine why anyone would give your videos a 👎! I admit I can be a critical person, so it just perplexes me when I see a 👎 on any of your videos.
Just ordered five from Home Depot. I’m hoping they’re in good shape and size.I’m planting them across the front of home facing East with about 4 1/2 to 5 hours of sun.Fingers crossed...
Thank you so much. I love Hydrangeas, they are one of my favorite plants 🌱 Thank you for share this video with us. Since I Subscribed to your channel I always enjoy your videos! Keep your great job!
I'm hoping you can help. I live in Michigan and I have beautiful strawberry and raspberry gardens. my raspberries where overthrowing everything and I read it was safer to transplant them than strawberries. but know it's been three or four days and they still look awful. did I kill them?
I live in zone 9b and recently bought 2 bobo hydrangeas from proven winners and it said they survived in zone. But you said it's only up to zone 8! I'm devastated! I did plant them in a mostly shade spot. You think they'll survive here? I'm crying a little. Thanks for the video!
as long as you keep them watered and well fed , they will thrive. hydrangeas are notorious drinkers and grow like crazy if they are well fed. In colder areas we strive with dieback and frost dammage, especially to the varietys of Macrophyllum species as they are not frost hardy at all,. and need cover and frost protection, and they dont rebloom if they get frost dammage or dry out during the spring,. so plant your bobos , and be sure as long as they get enoug water through the warm and dry months of summer they will be perfectly fine :)
Thor Kipperberg This is awesome! I will give it a go and make sure I water plenty and fertilize regularly. I love your advise. Makes sense. Thank you!! Vita
well,. thats my trials and errors that comes in handy,. haha,. i have killed my share of plants before I started to learn how and why my plants didnt survive,. and thanks to Laura i have Learned quite a bit,. hooked gardner here .. and I also work with plants at my work,. so I read a lot about the plants I sell about how they are well taken care of. just remember that you use a fertilizer that will promote flowering and just not green leaves,. that can also be a factor in many cases why a plant never flowers,. ;)
Do you make your own compost? And if so I would love to see a video about that. I just started making my own compost and I'm having a little trouble with it. As always love your videos!!
Hey Laura, can you give an update on how these are doing after a year? I'm debating about putting some Bobos in my moonlight garden and I'd like to see how they filled in. Thanks!
I love Bobos! I really want to plant some in the front of our house - we are in zone 6 and our house faces west. 😩 Do you think they would make it on the west side with afternoon sun??
Hey you have a beautiful garden i have garden to but I need some tips how to arrange it better so I am watching your videos just bought a hydrangea and I live in the tropic so I was watching the video how to care for it
Hydrangeas are my favorite! Do you ever get problems with leaf spot? I've gotten it bad the past two years. I'm thinking of spraying them with neem oil now to help prevent it this summer. Do you think this will help? and how often does it need to be sprayed?
Would Hydrangeas do well in high acid soil and full shade? I would love to put a few in between my cluster of giant evergreens in the front of my house for some color.
Melissa Miew if you are in shade and on acid soil you coild plant the traditional mophead type hydrangeas, while these panicle hydrangeas will grow in any soil they do need some sun to produce blooms, atleast 6 hours
Lorena Fernandes you have lots of choices. Canna lillies, elephant ears, coleous, birds of paradise, calediums, roses, floribunda vine, mandevilla vine, petunias, geraniums, begonias, wax begonias, these are just a few.
i have a bo bo but had it in a pot and struggled through the harsh winter on the west coast in abbotsford i just put it in another pot its got 1 leaf do you think it will make it
hydrangeas usually have a higher survivalrate in the ground than in pots, this counts for most plants and shrubs/trees,. but if there is life then there is hope, repot, and give it some light and I bet it will soon sprout new shoots from the stems,.. and keep it watered., never let a hydragea dry out completly,.
Only thing I just want to say or ask is , if you could tell or let de audience know witch plants are Deer resistant, cause I just followed you on Facebook and I saw there's already 3 of friends of mine following you and where we live we have a lot of Deers 😂 . Thanks
are there really any ?? hahaha, joke aside, there are safe plants, like Norway spruce, and other firtrees that grow naturally in the forrests,some arborvitae is also not deer favorittes,cysticus not a favoritte either., but In my experience is that, in the winter/early spring, they nibble on most trees and plants, and forget most bulbs,unless you protect them the first weeks, until the snow has gone, I had a huge deer and slug problems here in my garden too,. but I have now solved that pretty easilly, as my gardencentre gave me this tip for a solution,. bonemeal/bloodmeal,. use that around your plants and the deer wil stay far far away from them and they did, no nibble and all my tulip bulbs were left untouched,. :) When it comes to slugs, well ironphosphate pellets, around the plants,solved pretty much, my slug problem,. the snails and slugs eat the pellets and die,. the plants gets a boost of iron and phospates and grows pretty happy :) maybe this wil work for you too ? and the best part all these products are safe with pets, and children :)
I noticed your parents have a variegated iris in their garden. I have one, but it never blooms. Do you have any videos on this so I can figure out what I'm doing wrong?
is it big?? usually the reason why irises dont bloom, is that its not been devided in a while ,.you can also try to give it fertilizer and new soil. it usually also helps.
We had severe drought last summer . Every one of my Hydrangea suffered but are producing foliage now. Tough plant and well worth the effort. I love the plants you just planted for your mom. You have a lucky mom. What a gift to plant for her.
