@taurusrae7630 thank you for the feedback and yes, in some ways they're similar. you're feedback is well-taken.

@alhambra119 i'm sorry to hear that. you'll have to identify the critter, eg, type of insect. my Elderberry have no predation so i haven't looked further. on the other hand, i set-up a game cam to ID the critter eating Mulberry leaves. a squirrel 🥴😧

Thank u so much for the reply! I appreciate it.

@mcg144 super delish 🙂, and super invasive 😞in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia. www.invasive.org/weedcd/pdfs/wgw/wineberry.pdf Many other plants to choose from 🤗😂

I say NEITH!

Ethanol free gas. FEW gas stations have it (in MD), airports, boat launches and big box stores have it. Hoped that helped and plz subscribe!

@miztri fantastic question!! it's 2024 (3 yrs later) and this year they grew too long (laterally) and the ends are sagging to 1-2'off the ground with fruit! I picked the fruit, then tip pruned (2-4 feet) the sagging limbs, and the limbs sprung back up! Tip prune back 2-4 feet -- prune back to the next bud that's growing laterally at a ~45 degree angle. your intuition is 100% correct -- many tree limbs would break. however, the Mulberry limbs are very flexible causing them to sag when too long; then, tip prune to find the "sweet spot" for continued lateral growth.

@jasonsnyder6045 well, thank you for the feedback!

@TheUKNutter wow! are you in the pacific northwest? have you tried the fruit? just curious....

@@heppylifestyle I can try one today since they just turned ripe. And yes.

@@TheUKNutter 🤩🤗

@bloodlove93 the vines are ... vigorous so have a pair of hand pruners and trellis. i'm itching to make a full-length vid.

@Coldtropics I've been interacting with folks about the Goumi and have read this comment a couple of times -- I'm wondering if y'all were sold the type that looks like a sweet scarlet but is another species, Elaeagnus umbellata (it also produces a red berry). My Tillamook and Sweet Scarlet both have a cherrish flavor profile (Elaeagnus multiflora). That's my experience. Hope that helped, and I'm sorry to hear about your experience. 🐞

@@heppylifestyle I have both umbellata and sweet scarlet they taste the same

@@Coldtropics weird. well, my first impression is that you know the different (A++). i'm not sure i would. sorry to hear about the SS not being tasty. so, if not cherry'ish, then what's the flavor profile?

@@heppylifestyle they taste around the same maybe a little bit more astringent then sweet scarlet

@@Coldtropics interesting.... I wonder if the amount of sunlight is playing a role. my are astringent'y until darkkkk red. i have some shading. well, thank you and i don't beat this into the ground. i appreciate the feedback. 🤓😎

@geokoss_NYC. I'm no expert; there several possibilities as you probably know; I stopped fertilizing my Persimmons in exchange with mulching well; could be a minerals issue and applying (spraying) a fish emulsion on leaves may turn the corner. The latter is on my to do list. Fish emulsion for minerals, and lay off fertilizer (due to a sketchy relationship (?risk) of over fertilizing) are my two thoughts. There's a great forum at growingfruit.org. VERY smart people hang out there. Hope things work out 🫣🤓😎🐞

Thanks for the insight. I have mulch and I will place it down tomorrow. Never heard of the fish emulsion before but will look it up. Thanks again.

But without the thorns 🤣

Queen's ann's lace is wild carrot not yarrow

@@demonkiller479 Looks exactly the same as what grows here in Kentucky

@ginger9628 tastes the same BUT the Hardy is vigorous vine. my next full-length vid will have recommendations for if i were to do it over again! 🤓😎🤣

@RobertoMartinez-vs4yt a bit open-ended :/ i grew fanatic fruiting plants (not kiwi) in the desert! my point, how mindful will you be to 'hook 'em up' with sun;/shade, soil and get em established. details are here, heppy.org/kiwi but a determined person can grow em in warmer climates :).

@gardenofseeden i hear good things about the Norris. let me know how if goes! 🤓😎

​@faithl4105 a fantastic excuse not to mow 😂🤩

@heppylifestyle , 🥳😅 A very beautiful excuse! LOL. In AZ, our home's (new build area) entire front yard landscaping came already with river rock as mulch. The HOA probably knows we couldn't keep grass alive. 🤣😂🌵 🏜

@faithl4105 you're right! very problematic; it's frustrating to know that so many people have used it, across the globe (different species), and i'm not sure preparations are well known these days. yes, more studying is needed. candidly, i briefly looked for the North American Species. i found a rabbit hole and will have to circle back someday. i believe this is the European variety, plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/achillea-millefolium/ NIH PubMed: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=achillea

​@heppylifestyle Thank you for the thoughtful reply. Yarrow does have incredible medicinal benefits! I like your channel! Your video on your Persimmon trees has made us envious here in San Tan Valley, AZ! 😁🌳🌵🌻

​@@faithl4105 no worries, and thank you for the feedback. my family travels throughout AZ so i had to look up San Tan Valley. y'all get toasty in the neck of the woods 😎. i grew up east of u in CA. thanks for stopping by, and stay cool 🤠!

@heppylifestyle , we'd like to grow a home orchard & have already planted some fruit trees (fig, peach, strawberry guava, pomegranate, etc, & Passionfruit vines), but want more variety. Also, medicinal plants... Zone 9b, so trees that can thrive in this hot weather w brief, mild winters. I grew up in Hawaii. My husband is from San Diego, CA. Being in AZ now, we grow what we can in the low desert. 🏜 110° or hotter during summer afternoons. Mild, short winters. Dry climate. Your videos on trees that give shade in our area & pruning m, have helped us. Thank you so much! May God bless you & yours immensely! 😃

​ @faithl4105 NICE collection and goals. excellent choices for your region. pomegranate has great benefits; i'm yet to do a deep dive but i saw enough. i hear (yet to taste) that white pomegranates are sweeter, btw. the seed is softer too. yes, you're in a 'toasty toasty' region & estabished trees are a lifesaver (as you're planning). my Passionfruit vines REALLY suckered -- heads up on that! consider the Jujube (th-cam.com/video/HlcIotMhL88/w-d-xo.html). bullet proof in the heat. the variety, So (aka, Zigzag) is the one that stayed bushy, btw (of the 5 types i grow). they tend to grow skinny and tall; i'm topping my newest-planted trees to encourage bushiness. have fun with the HERBS. rosemary's health values may be underappreciated, and there's SOOOO many types of herbs. carry on, be good and thank you for the kind words! Same to you and yours!

@kevencaraballo1990 try posting question to growingfruit.org. I believe it needs to be dormant wood and I won't have that now 😕😎🐞

@@heppylifestyle i mean, i propagate my black mulberries and pakistani whenever I want to, they always root lol so I guess if they’re from the same family, they’ll root too…

@@kevencaraballo1990 great point! are u in the US? looking for soft or hardwood cuttings? u pay shipping.... usc333@mail.com.

@@heppylifestyle I tried sending you an email but it says the address couldn’t be found…

@@kevencaraballo1990 wow, stupid me 🙄😬. it's gmail 🤣. usc333@gmail.com.

@robinmiller7505 id contact Whitman Farms and get a Sweet Scarlet and/or Tillamook plant! I make no commission, btw. Also, plz don't get plants from FB or eBay. There may be reputable folks but don't waste time and take risk, I recommend. Man, I give a lot of great free advice 🫣🤣🧑🏼‍🌾🐞

@robinmiller7505 ??? No heart for u! 🤣. My pinned post shows the zone: more is here, heppy.org/goumi 🐞

@RobertoMartinez-vs4yt great work, and great soil! the one i planted does have large leaves, and is growing great ... until, i think some squirrels decided to include Mulberry leaves in their diet 🙄😱. Thanks for stopping by! Please subscribe 😎

@deecooper1567 i grew up in the low desert to your SW. you nailed it -- amend, amend, amend that sandy soil. you probably do this but i gathered hay, alfalfa and a bit a poo from local horse corrals. Thanks for stopping by 🐞

@@heppylifestyle Yep👍. My neighbor has a lawn & some trees & bring me all their bags grass & leaves 🍁. Makes a good compost with some 🐄💩 🤣🤣. It’s def a challenge gardening here. 👵🏻👩‍🌾❣️

@@deecooper1567 🤓😎🧑🏼‍🌾

@richardstevens3461 we're on the same page! 😂🤣. Thanks for stopping by!

@cesuntbanii love Juneberries!

@towzone sorry about that; i could have added that info! Zones 4 to 9 (90% of America); almost tastes like cherry but a bit tart; more is here, heppy.org/goumi. good point & thank you!

@Hammer4999 great point! they're flavor profile is closest to cherry when completely ripe. anything less than fully ripe, it's like a tart cherry. thanks for stopping by!

huh??

@timschannel910 NC is fantastic territory, and the Goumi is very cold hardy. if it helps, everything i learned about the plant is here, heppy.org/goumi

@StefanSobkowiak well thank you for the compliment! your presentation and tone is excellent (in vids); heck, it's from you that I could learn from -- for gardening & youtubing ;) congradulations on the number of subscribers! i subscribed -- let's get you to 200k. i'd be honored by a visit but keep expectations low; overall, the garden very is young, and carved out of abandoned land. more carving needed :/ again, thank you for the compliment, and for stopping by!

@XoroksComment thank you. i watched the vid -- very nice fruit. I googled Daigoumi, Elaeagnus multiflora hoping to get lucky. I look forward to seeing larger selections. after corresponding with many folks (post-vid), i'm told that the Tillamook & Carmine are the same; a nursery renamed the Tillamook to Carmine. i'll be clearer in my vid next time. I placed Catherine's Find and Pippi in my personal notes to figure out origin and clarity on, are they different or existing cultivars that are renamed 🥸. Great comments, and thanks for stopping by!

I second that Tillamook and carmine are the same. I have checked multiple sources on this.

​@@heppylifestyle There are a lot of people saying that Carmine and Tilamook are synonyms, while others claim there are slight differences between the two. I'm not in the US, so I don't have access to these two varieties and can't comment on whether they are actually the same or, in fact, slightly different. Either way, Catherine's Find and Pippi are distinct, since they are new seedling varieties. You'll find pictures of Daigoumi if you search for it on the popular "white f on blue square" social media website (if I say the name my comments get automatically flagged as spam and removed 🗿), where a lot of the discussion on Goumi is happening in the Elaeagnaceae group.

​@@XoroksComment thank you for taking the time to express all that! my original reply vaporized; i'll look at the forum you mentioned; i didn't want to name-drop but Carmine is the Tilamook, according to the person who first found & rooted the Tillamook (i spoke with her by phone post-vid); Pippi is on my radar and already hae a plant to get it. THANK you for your 'heads up' and feedback. Be well in your part of the world 🐞

@@heppylifestyle I misspelled the variety name "Daiougoumi", with that spelling you'll find more results on said social media website
