A channel for new gardeners 🌸😊 I’ve been gardening for well over 10 years now. Over the years I’ve happily puttered around my garden experimenting the best ways to grow, prune, feed, and to propagate my plants. I’ve always watched TH-cam but never contributed to the wealth of knowledge available on here. I’ve finally built up the courage to share my putterings 🤗 in the hope that you may benefit in some way from them, as I’ve benefited from so many other gardeners out there. 🪴 😊 I hope you find this channel useful.

Spotlight on climbing rose Fourth of July
Question, I live in nc, & have Ice plants in planters. Should I take them indoors in the winter? Or what do you suggest?
No, not at all. Ice plants are hardy down to zone 5. You don’t have to do anything where you are. It will survive your winter just fine, even if you have it in a pot. I have some in a pot and some in the ground, both ways work. It will go dormant just like all the other plants and wake up in the spring.
My seeds are in the water for more than 2 weeks and no change.😕just like day 1☹
I’m sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, your seeds may be nonviable. If you scratched them like I show in the video and soaked them, then you did all you could do. I’d try buying another batch and try again. However, I’d try it in spring, it’s pretty late in the season for canna seeds. You’ll have enough time to get them to maybe a foot tall at most before they slow down in the cool fall weather. Cannas need heat to thrive.. Unless you’re in a tropical area, then of course, go for it 👍 good luck! 😊
❤ ty for using my sound
😊 my pleasure. You have good taste 👍
Beautiful. Is this a miniature rose?
No, it’s a full sized floribunda. The flowers are about the size of my palm. 😊 I highly recommend 👍
Thank you for the informative video. I could have watched it over and over if weren't for the music. Thank you.
lol I don’t blame you. That was from when I first started making videos/shorts. I didn’t really think about it, just chose a random song to cover the terrible scratching sounds from the poor sound quality. 😅 I think this was one of the few songs that actually covered it. I like to think I’m getting better at shorts, but honestly, the current ones are probably just as awful in some other way 😆
One question I have, when you are planting the seeds that have the white embryo exposed, are you planting the white tip UP or white tip DOWN in the soil? Thanks so much.
@@kmanmott6162 it doesn’t matter what direction it points. It could be facing straight down and it will still grow upwards, or vice versa. In nature, when they fall to the ground, no one turns them and faces them in a certain direction. They’ve evolved over millions of years to be able to find up for their leaves and down for their roots. Just drop it in the hole and cover with soil. It will take care of the rest on its own 😊👍 don’t worry about it, you got this 👍
So pretty ❤
@@GardenGaloreParadise thank you!🙏 😊
Stay connected with me.
tried this with my wilted hydrangea, next day it was definitely dead :(
Can’t see why it would die from this, unless it was already dead. This process just makes it so the plant can have maximum hydration. It can’t hurt the plant, unless you leave the bag in the sun, like I explain in the video…maybe you’re mistaken and it just looks dead. Did you do the scratch test? Maybe the branches are still alive. I’ve brought back many hydrangeas that looked completely dead with this method (hydrangeas lowes had thrown out). Try scratching it to see if it’s still green inside.
Love it ❤
@@keishac9 thank you Keisha! 😊
Thank you so much! Your video, though longish, was worth every minute .. clear visuals, simple explanation, soothing voice and spoken clear and slow enough. Really appreciate your sharing, and will check out more of your videos. I'm here in Bangalore, India, by the way! No idea what zone! Tropical mostly pleasant weather here, and we're in our monsoon season at the moment. Looking forward to trying out my canna seeds now, what fun! Thanks again, Sue!
Oh thank you so much for the kind compliments. 😊 I got curious as to what zone Bangalore would be equivalent to and it looks like you guys would be a zone 12. Good luck with your seeds! I hope you germinate some interesting ones 👍😊
Those are so pretty 🤩
Thank you! 🙏 😊

Just purchased a Stawberry Vanilla hydrangea tree. The colors are just now changing for the Vanilla to the mixed Strawberry Vanilla colors. My wife loves the colors, and your gardens.
@@jfred1924 thank you so much 😊 and yes I love the colors too 👍 might I recommend a hydrangea for your wife? My favorites currently are the pinky winky (pollinator magnet) and strawberry sundae (beautiful color as well. I have a short on it) 👍 it has white, light and dark pink, and lime. Don’t tell the plant police but I’ve propagated the bageezes out of it 🤣 I want it everywhere in my garden eventually lol
Looking for a new one hydrangea along side of the shed, I will look into your suggestions, Thanks
Is your pinky winky a tree or a bush. Curious how big the bush or tree would get when full grown I wood have to make sure to plant in correct space
@@jfred1924 pinky winky gets pretty big. When it’s mature, it gets as big as limelight at 8 feet and each panicle can be 13 inches long. The strawberry sundae is more compact, getting at most 4 feet.
How long would/does it take you to water everything. Hopefully you have a watering system.
@@jfred1924 I do have the plants on drip. But I still have to water the things in pots that I have scattered around the garden and I do a lot of propagation so those need to be watered. I find it peaceful. I go out there with hose in one hand and coffee in the other and just spray. It also gives me a chance to keep an eye on everything. I can catch when something is suffering much faster that way.
There's waaaay too much commerce where I live for deer, and even for me, but when my dog and I encounter them running along the wooded paths in the 5k acre nature reserve closest to me, they don't even flinch. They stare me down and my dog, a 55 pound Am Staff/lab/boxer mix, freezes and refuses to make eye contact. I don't blame them at all. We invaded their homes and moved them to a tightly controlled location, and with the way the industrial revolution has devolved and destroyed God's natural order, our deer, coyotes, foxes, and in some areas wolves, mountain lions and the like don't have a choice but to step outside of the boundaries they've been assigned to find food. Don't mind me - this is a consequence of choosing to major in environmental sustainability
I totally agree. We’ve messed with the natural order of things, taken over their natural habitats and they have no choice but to live in our yards and the small patches of what my town calls “forest preserves” but half a block is hardly a “forest”. That’s why I don’t mind them being around. I think they’re sweet and gentle. They decimate the whole town’s arborvitae every year but, I mean, what else are they supposed to eat 🤷♀️? We destroyed the forests and won’t let the grass get tall enough to eat. As soon as it gets above two inches tall, there we are with the mower.. So I’ve just learned to let them enjoy my arborvitae and plant other things around the arborvitae that they don’t like so we’re both happy. They still get to eat and I get to garden. 🪴
I've done that more than once with the purple Zebrina Mallow in my garden. I've let it go to seed, and right now I have two mini mallows popping up. That's exactly what I was hoping for in not deadheading, and I'm excited for next spring!
Good thing you recognize what zebra mallow seedlings look like because I honestly thought these were weeds. The form was just so different from my other petunias, I never would have guessed “petunia”. They have these huge leaves and yet there’s that petunia flower growing out of it, go figure 🤷♀️
Complete plant newbie here. What’s the best potting soil to buy? And how big before it goes in the ground? Zone 6-7 here if that helps
I use miracle grow potting mix. They come in different kinds like “moisture control” ect. but it really doesn’t matter which one you use. Honestly any potting mix, from any company, will work. The whole point of it is to have good drainage. If you water your plants and it runs right through and doesn’t sit on top, that’s a good potting mix. And for planting in the ground, Autumn/Fall weather is really good. The scorching heat of summer has passed by then and the baby plants go through minimal transplant shock. And they get a few months to root in before winter 👍
@@Garden-Oasis thank you so much!!
Where do I find the seeds
You can buy them on eBay for very cheap. People collect them from their plants and sell them. You can also buy them from online plant stores that sell seeds. I think I’ve even seen them being sold in amazon. I’d just google “canna lily seeds” and go with the best option. You’ll only have to buy them once. Then you can collect your own seeds and store them for the next year 👍
@@Garden-Oasis thank you I found some, you gained a subscriber
@@CookNComedy you’re very welcome 😊
I have a Tropicana Black in a container and it blooms beautifully BUT they tend to break off? My husband slid the container a little for room and a new flush of partially opened blooms on one stalk just very cleanly snapped off. It looked as if I cut it, it was so clean. Does anyone know why this happens?
The Tropicana series are hybrids so maybe it’s just something that happens with that variety. It’s probably something the breeders had to accept with that particular cultivar, in order to have a canna with such dark leaves.
They are backs, not flowers.
@@JoseMartinez-df2db actually if you want to get technical, they are “panicles”. That’s where the name panicle hydrangea comes from. The panicles are composed of both flowers and bracts. But most people don’t know what a bract is, so I used the word “flower”, so people would understand. The point of the video wasn’t flower anatomy 😅
thanks for sharing.
@@lindakincaid4530 thanks for taking the time to comment 😊
Mine are NOT dehydrated. They wilted with plenty of water. We did have a heat wave. Otherwise, what is happening? Too much sun?
@@susanpharr6809 I replied yesterday but somehow the comment disappeared 🤷♀️ so let’s try this again lol I was saying that it very well could be the heat wave. I have three very mature hydrangeas (that I’ve never had problems with) whose flowers have gone crispy and brown. I tried and tried to water but it didn’t help. I think the problem wasn’t the lack of water but that the plant couldn’t send water up faster than it was evaporating from the big leaves. So far only the flowers and the edges of some leaves have browned so they’ll be ugly for the season but I think they will make it through the rest of the summer and live. But if yours are worse than that, I’d probably use a shade cloth over them to help them out. Shade cloth is breathable so they’ll be able to get some air. I have other ones that are in full shade under trees that are holding up pretty well 👍 so I know shade makes a big difference…and if yours are already in full shade.. then I don’t know 🤷♀️ what you could do to save them. I hope they hang in there long enough for this heat wave to pass
Amazing

I just saved one that was next to my dumpster....I just wanna give you all the claps for this well done video! I love that you gave the option to skip however I found every second of this informational ❤❤❤❤❤
@@lisaboggs8377 thank you so much 😊 it’s really heart warming and motivating when people take the time to tell me what they liked about the video, so I can figure out how to make future videos better. So thank you for taking the time to comment 😊
What month did you do this?
@@SP_REX I did it in July but the month varies for different people because of our different climates. For example, people in zone 4 are a full month and a half behind my zone 7. Because when my plants are leafing out, zone 4 still has snow on the ground. So instead I gave you a better way to figure out when it’s time to trim it. When the leaves go from white to green, that’s when I trim it. You could trim it a little before too, but I like to enjoy the white color as long as I can.
So after the 24 hrs in the bag do you put them back in the sun or leave them in a shadier area until they're healthy?
@@nedebruyn leave them in the shade. A dappled shade location works wonderfully if you can manage it, like under a tree, but if you can’t, then full shade like the north side of your house will be good too. You’ll do this till it grows its leaves back and looks healthy again. By that time, the weather will have cooled and you’ll be in Fall. Fall is the perfect time to plant things out
Loving your videos and your garden. Do you have a garden tour video where you explain all the names and identifications of your plants?
@@pixelsicle thank you so much. I have been making garden tour videos since spring. But the mic on my phone is terrible and I’ve been saving up to buy a better external mic so I can do the voiceovers. As they are, the audio is unusable. It’s all gusting wind sounds and my garbled voice 😅
Thank you. Does this work for ones still in the ground also?
@@jerridyke8706 I don’t know how you would be able to soak ones in the ground, unless you were planning to dig them back up or cut them off the plant wilted? But yes, if you could somehow soak them in water, it will work.
Please help me I put my plant in the ground and all the flowers is turning brown from being that beautiful pink. But all the leaves are green.
@@SerenaLongchallon is it a hydrangea? It’s pretty hot right now to be planting anything out. Did you plant it recently? If it’s freshly planted…considering we are in a heat wave… I’d advise digging it back up. It hasn’t had enough time to root in to be able to handle the heat wave. It’ll be better off back in a pot and placed in a shaded or at most dappled shaded spot (like under a tree) till Fall comes. Spring and Fall are the best times to plant out into the garden. Especially things like hydrangeas. So yeah.. that would be my advice if it’s freshly planted. If it’s been in the ground for quite a while, like since spring, then it’s probably just suffering from the heat. And the best you can do is keep it watered till we get through this horrible hot weather. Good luck 👍
No I did it in June.
@@SerenaLongchallon I’d still do what I said above. One month is definitely not enough time. That would be my advice.. good luck
❤
😊🌺
Does it grow in tropical climate and can i grow it in shade
@@venketeshchandran289 it’s growing zones are 3-9 so I’m not sure. Isn’t topical zone 10? Zone 10 would put you above the temperature that this plant can handle. If I’m wrong and you’re in zone 9, then yes you can grow phlox. And I’d recommend a dappled shade location (because it does need some sun). But dappled shade would work beautifully in zone 9, because it’s on the very edge of what the plant can handle.
@@Garden-Oasis thanks for the info.appreciate it👍🏻
Why so much fungal rust? My poor baby!!! I love Darcey but she's hurting bad! 💔
My plants are planted extremely close together, I don’t spray anything because I have pets and I prefer to have a pollinator friendly, organic garden. So basically, it’s survival of the fittest in my garden. 😄 if they get a fungal disease, the best I can do is remove the fallen leaves. We had a lot of rain last year so a lot of the David Austins suffered. But they are doing much better this year. Funnily enough, I have other varieties right next to the David Austins and those ones never get any fungal disease 🤷♀️. I think David Austin has roses might just be finicky
She explains the process very well.
@@DebraLivelli thank you! 😊 and thanks for taking the time to comment 😊
Great other videos are saying once flower is spent cut it. Then you will continue to have them flower. Which I did, but your explanation states they will keep flowering. I cut some & was wondering where are the new flowers? Thank you for Correct info. One channel said if you save the pods you could get a different color when planting them. Is that true? Mine are orange, not my color scheme in garden but was given, & it’s sacrilegious to throw a plant away in my world😊. Will come back to see your other videos when time allows. 8b btw.
@@gracie2298 I have a video where I show you that openly pollinated canna seeds are not true to type. Meaning you could get any color. If you take seeds from an orange flower, some flowers will be orange but some will be other colors. Because the mom might have had orange flowers but the dad or the grandparents might have had other colors. In the video, I take seeds from the same canna and I not only get different color flowers but also some of the seedlings had dark leaves 👍😊🍁 and thank you for the compliment 😊 much appreciated
I have a pathos about this big, although mine is a little fuller and longer. I have never used any kind of fertilizer in it in the ten plus years that I've had it. When I had bought it, it came in a six-inch pot, it's been transplanted throughout the years with the pot having to get bigger and bigger, as it now sits in a 30" pot. The only thing that I have ever done with it throughout the years was to re-soil it every spring using only Maricle grow's moisture control potting soil just once a year. I live in zone 5 and had to dedicate my entire spear bedroom to this plant! I rarely water it during the wintertime, and it sits draping over a gigantic steel utility rack in front of a window that gets indirect sunlight. It's a beast! I would be very interested in finding out how much bigger my pathos would reach if I were to use the fish fertilizer in it. By the way, I just found your channel and I love it!
Would you believe all of this is growing in a 12” pot? I’ve repotted it only once in the 5 years I’ve had it, from the 6” pot it came in to the 12”. And it’s been in the same pot, in the same soil since. I imagine it would get fuller with bigger leaves if I repotted it. But I’m keeping it confined to its 12” prison because I can’t have it taking over the whole house, like in that movie Little House of Horrors🤣 I don’t often water mine either. I wait till the soil dries out and then deep water with a water reservoir under it to catch the runoff and then act as a makeshift self watering container so I don’t have to water for a good long while. If I leave it unwatered for too long, some leaves yellow and fall off (that’s those bare spots lol) and that’s when I know I’ve messed up again and go check the soil. I feel like with house plants, it’s way better to underwater than to over overwater. Overwatering is the kiss of death.
Can you give more fetails of when and where to cut ?
You can cut as soon as when your cucumber vine has 5-6 leaves. You can cut the top two nodes for your cutting and leave the rest for your current plant. It will branch out like any other plant would. If the cucumber vine is super long (as it probably would be by this time in the summer) just cut a piece off. It could be two nodes or as long as you want it to be… I say two nodes because one node would mean the very tip and that’s probably too tender to make it on its own… anyway just place in a glass of water and it will root.
When do you cut them?
Dormant cuttings are cut in winter. You could cut them in December or wait till just before they wake up in spring. You just want your cut them while the buds haven’t opened yet. Then you just store them in the fridge till you’re ready to use them
Your garden is beautiful!! What zone do you live in ?
Thank you! 😊 I’m in zone 7a
I’m pushing my luck, I just started and Annabelle hydrangea June 30 ….hoping I can get it to root in time so I can pot it before winter Zone 5
Annabelle hydrangeas are a bit tricky, especially in water. They’re a bit weird that way. I always do Annabelles in winter as dormant cuttings. They work much better and give you less work to do. You stick them in some potting soil while they’re still dormant (in winter) and leave them alone for the most part. You’ll still have to water them once spring has sprung and they’ve leafed out, of course, but the success rate is way higher 👍
Couple of questions then, do you use cuttings that were new growth, old growth. Pretty sure I have to use a leaf nodes for the roots to start. What about rooting hormone? Do you stick it in a sunny window, dark corner? Actually, if you have a website where I can read up on it, I would not have to bother you with a bunch of questions. Thanks so much, Jeff
@@jfred1924 so dormant cuttings are a different animal from regular fresh cuttings. You wouldn’t put them in a window because you leave the pot you put them in, outside. To be snowed on and to freeze along with everything else. They’ll actually NEED to stay cold in order to survive and come out of dormancy when the other plants do, in spring. And they do great as single node cuttings so you can get many more plants from one branch. I’m actually working on a video for Annabelle as hardwood cuttings. I’m waiting to upload till I have a complete start to finish process in one video. I’ll be uploading as soon as it’s ready. You’ll have something to follow this coming winter if you’re interested 😊👍
@@jfred1924 and you do dormant cuttings from that same year’s growth. Basically whatever grew that spring and summer will be your cuttings.
Thank you so much, waiting for a new video
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
💗💗💗
😊❤️🌺
I have to get me one now lol
I highly recommend it. The buds are really cold tolerant and will bloom for you pretty reliably. And that’s on top of the little Smurf flowers 😄❤️
Question. I have a few Invinciball smooth hydrangeas that I put in the ground - they got a little more sun than I thought and they started to dry up and one shriveled up. Can I do your method by taking them out of the ground and re-potting them first - then your method. Let me know thanks.
Yes absolutely. If it’s in a spot where it’s getting too much sun, it’s better to dig it up anyway. Otherwise it will definitely struggle when we get to the hottest part of the summer (which is yet to come). Dig them up, put the roots in a bucket overnight (no need to plant it yet, if it’s already dug up) after the treatment, pot in some fresh potting soil and place in the shade. If it hasn’t died completely yet, it should come back for you. Once it has recovered (in the fall), pick a spot with dappled shade as its permanent home. Good luck! 👍
@@Garden-Oasis thanks so much! I’m going to do this. I had a good feeling that your advice wouid be the right path! I’ll keep you posted!😎😎😎
Prettty!!!😮😮🥰🤩
It really is. I highly recommend it 👍😍
I didn't know that! 👍
Neither did I! People always said the flowers were “inside” the ball. I always thought they were hidden behind the bract (false flowers). Who knew they were actually the little pearls?
Beautiful!!!
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
Beautiful ! I'm jealous.
Get yourself one! 😊 I highly recommend. It’s a pretty reliable bloomer 👍
Thank you this is very helpful. Can you please recommend an internet mail order place to buy these plants?
If you’re in the US, any garden center has them at this time of year. I’d check Lowe’s or Home Depot first as you might get lucky and come across a sale. But if you need to order by mail, then google it. Google will take your location into account and give you the best option for you. Just Google “Delosperma ice plant” and click the “shopping” section. 😊Good luck! 👍
@@Garden-Oasis thanks
Love this video. I stuck a piece of my dappled willow in soil and it is doing so well. Easy to propagate and cheaper than buying new plants!
Dappled willow are fast growers so you’ll have a mature plant in no time. I love that about them. 👍
💚 Are you on IG?
I’m not, unfortunately. Though I know I should be. I just don’t think I can fit it in. I would have to post regularly otherwise there would be no point in having it and time is short these days. Maybe sometime in the future 😊
