I have Heuchera villosa,’Brownies’ in a concrete pots in zone 5b/6a SE MI for over 15 years

I have hostas in containers that overwintering well. And I have roses in containers that are super happy. But with the roses, I do pull them into the garage until early spring. Russian Sage has also done fine for me. I forgot one in its nursery pot (set it down in a crowded bed and forgot it wasn't in the ground). It came back...and is now planted properly. I'm in Wisconsin, zone 5. Thanks for all the practical videos you post!

We have been growing perennials in pots for years now we only have six pots of annuals on the front windowsills. We have fifty two pots of perennials in the front garden which include Agapanthus, Alstromerias, Alpines, Hebes, Fuchsias, Parahebes, Lilies, Daylilies, Calla lilies, Ice plants, Salvias, Sempervivums, Sedums, Phygelius and Hostas. We bring the Agapanthus, Salvias, phygelius and Ice plants into a glasshouse over winter. We feed all our perennials and annuals with tomato food during the summer. We use copper tape around the pots and that keeps the slugs away, also most of our pots are glazed which keeps the moisture longer than terracotta pots.

The gloves with the claws, I have them and love them lol came with my garden auger set 😊 great for scratching bug bites too 😅 I’m a rooster fan, I love that little guy 😊

Last year I bought 2 peonies in pots from Home Depot. One pink, one white. Watered and placed them in a sunny location. Nothing happened. 😥 Put them in the basement for the winter before the first frost and left them alone. Imagine my surprise to see growth in April on the pink one. Brought both back outside and actually got a pink bloom this May. Haven't given up hope on the white one. Maybe one more year in the basement might do the trick 🤞 If not, I will just buy another white Peony to fill the pot. I live in zone 6a

I have so many perrennials in pots- hostas, heuchera, coneflower, ferns and monarda! In the fall I gather them up against my house. Zone 7a PA 🪴The only thing I lost were White Feather Hostas.

What a good idea, thanks.

I love putting heuchera in pots and they look stunning with all the different leaf colours but They seem to be very susceptible to vine weavel in N W England. Love your videos 😀

My heuchera has done well, it bloomed beautiffully in it't container. I need more of them, zone 7b Austria. Thank you for sharing and the inspiration.👏😍😊🌼🌸🌼

Love the Miss Piggy Bergenia and the fact you explained how it got it's name. The pigsqueak sound was really interesting. Thank you.

I'm also in zone 5a. I have had success overwintering most of my Stonecrop Sedums, Daylilies, a lace cap hydrangea, and chives. No luck with echinaceas. Autumn Joy Sedum is TOUGH.

Wow is that Angelonia? So tall!

Sedum does great over wintering in pots for me and makes a great filler. I have 3 different varieties. I’m in NJ zone 7. Also coreopsis Moonbeam does well. Also yellow Evening Primrose. I have also been using thyme as a spiller and has come back nicely! Almost too good- it spills over the edge of the pot all the way to the ground!

I LOVE your Chanel. I feel a little guilty, I live in So Cal zone 10B and I don’t have to work so hard in the garden. I do not suffer with frost and overwintering does not exist for me. I wanted you to know that even though we are not in the same growing zone, I learn a lot about containers from you. Your friend in the dirt, Victoria

Corey, is there any way I can send you a photo of your bubblegum petunias?

Love the plant the pot idea to transplant. You are a genius😊

Plants follow me home also. I love the challenge of a clearance rack. The plants love 💗 you like a rescued kitten. Once I didn’t have room for a gardenia and another perennial. I took care of them until they recovered and gave them to my neighbors.

I have an oak tree in a metal garbage can at 8 feet at least.... it volunteered n 5 years later here we are😂

I have had tall phlox n woodland phlox and hydrangea in pots for 5 years.... I need to put them all in ground and start over with new ones next Spring ... they all are amazing still but they deserve to sprawl! I am 7b Maryland. I line ALL pots with cardboard to insulate, hold moisture and feed worms n get rid of cardboard. WHen I lived in 6a I would stack empty pots double n triple n then put the perennial pot on top to help insulate plants not hardy in my zone.

Mealybugs destroy my petunias every year even when i treat with insecticide soap. I try to avoid chemicals because i have dogs.

Nepeta cats pajamas came back in Central NY Zone 5 as well as Agastache Poquito yellow both in containers. Love love your videos and your presentation. The best. Thank you.

I'm in zone 5B and I've overwintered Creeping Jenny in pots.

I started doing this last year! Two things I’ve found, I save money because I don’t have to buy tons of annuals to fill pots and the moles don’t ruin pots!

My favorite is the The Red Houkara pot beautiful gorgeous. Have a beautiful Day the Oklahoma gardener.😊

Thanks so much Corey for your encouragement! Zone 3 Manitoba and we are waterlogged too. I have large pots on my deck that had water showing above the soil! The pots have a cavity in the bottom for extra water so no drainage holes. Hubs drilled 4 holes in the bottom and water poured out like a faucet!! 😳💦😳. Question, would sprinkling water soluble granules on the soil surface work as the rain washes through? 🇨🇦💦🇨🇦

I plant all of my heucheras in pots..there is one that has been in a pot on my front porch for 10 years and still going strong although I've forgotton or misplaced the name of it. Roses do okay for about 2 to 3 years in pots for me. Bee balm has lasted at least 4 years in a whiskey barrel and has spread all around the edges which i thought interesting. Gaillardia has been potted for 3 years now but one died this past winter. None of the lilies in pots ever came back for me. Once I put a hardy hibiscus in a large container and it lived thru only one winter. It will be interesting to see which of yours makes it thru. I'm in 6b central Ohio. I also just leave my pots where they were placed during the summer, could be why some plants didn't make it.

Cory, what variety of Salvia is that? It’s gorgeous! Love your content-very informative.

Interesting. I'm zone 4 - last winter I put potted hosta, dianthus, and vinca in my dark unheated garage. Didn't cut anything back and didn't water all winter, and all came back this spring. Encouraged me to find some more perennials to abuse this winter and see how they do 😂

Love your creations 😊 I planted Bees Knees in with some purple and white petunias and dark purple verbena. (I think they’re wave petunias, I can’t remember) Anyways, the purple and white are swallowing up the bees knees. Should I take it out and let the others just grow on? It looked so pretty at first, now she’s being hidden 😢

I really appreciate seeing other plant options and learning about them. Sometimes I feel you tube is owned by pw and while they are great, they are not the only good thing available!! Thank you!!!

cant wait to see them all bloomed they look amazing as they are

Westside Garden 🌸🌼🌺

Right off the bat I can say great video 🌺🌺🌺

What about the perennials? Should we fertilize them now too? Some of my new hydrangeas have brown dried up leaves. Should I snip those off?

Hmm who us thinking of going to miejer now

I have been hunting for my black and blue salvia I am not finding g it but it seems a least 2 plants from each place follows me home,, lol now I need more large pots lol.. vicious cycle being a plant addict

I was on vacay last week and my proven winners petunias and lantanas have dried out. Can I revive them? zone 6b. Thanks for your great videos.

Hi Corey Great video as always. I don't know how you find the time but its impressive. I remember growing El brighto coleus years ago so when they said it was new I thought what the heck. I later came across the old tags and went ah ha i knew it. I do think the color is much improved though. I did read that their Boldly geraniums are just Calliope geraniums in their catalog. I guess the only way to know the difference in those double impatiens is to grow them side by side

Good job, Corey everything looks great. You crack me up would love to have you in our area. I am considered rural oklahoma, so have to travel a ways to a nice garden center or nursery. Have learned from your experience and knowledge.
