TRUE GARDENER here Jennifer! I watch your old videos over and over until you upload a new one! 😆 My family moved back to Central FL from Rhode Island nearly a year ago. I became an expert gardener while in New England for the past 7yrs but upon my return to life in the tropics in a new growing zone I became a newbie all over again in my new construction home. Your videos have been a tremendous blessing as I navigate my new landscape!!! THANK YOU for every tour and nugget of knowledge you share! Your expertise and style are inspiring and full of beauty! Love what you’re doing! And thank you Bryce for your excellent camera work! You’re the real MVP 🥇🌴🌺
I can’t wait to get a copy of your book. I’ve learned so much from your videos. I’m also a landscape designer and arborist, but in zone 7. We are in the planning stages of retirement and I’m at a loss with tropicals. My training teaches me soil, soil, soil😅 I realize I will be dealing with sand so I’m assuming that’s the reason for the amount of fertilizer used. lol Look forward to your next video!
Hi there Jennifer! My wife and I will be moving from Michigan to Vero beach area summer of 2025 and we can’t wait to have you create our jingle for us!!! ☺️
Looking forward to getting that book. It will surely be a guide for me and my florida lanscape adventure as I'm unable to have you work your magic for me in my area.
Wow I haven't seen a pygmy that big! I LOVE bottle palms! I am for sure doing those behind our spool. Thanks again for calling and chatting (I'm the one in Fort Lauderdale) ! Still in, plant celebrity shock lol! Cant wait to see your spool! haha! #spoolclub You know after we talked I thought about maybe a video about pesticides and what plants do well without attracting too many bugs.... especially spider mites and that dont need to many heavy pesticides. I have so many snakes, native tree frogs, owls that nest and loads of others so id love to add plants that dont need too much pesticide. Can’t wait for the book!
Just in time for shopping for my new tropical garden room, excellent info on the "layers" you do, which is what I hope to accomplish in my new tropical garden room ! Once again, great tutorial on the palms. Look forward to your book release ! Always look forward to your new posts. Thanks again Jennifer !!!
love your plant and palm choices. love your enthusiasm! thank you for your videos; they are inspiring and I've done quite a bit in my Central Florida yard using your ideas!!!
I am preparing to move from Indiana. Your site has been invaluable to my research. I have watched them over and over. I don't think I will be as far South as you. Wondering if you could make a video of palm and plant recommendations for 9a &9b ?? It would help a lot that aren't as far south as you. You should see the folder of notes from your videos! Thanks for helping us!
I love me some palm trees !!! Thanks for highlighting them with gobs of info about each one. I don't have 20 years to watch mine grow, but the bottles and the foxtail are already looking great. Another favorite - King Alexander - love the shape of the fronds. Please let us know when your book is ready. And thanks again to you and Bryce for all your hard work. Y'all keep the rest of us from making lots of expensive and time consuming mistakes - we appreciate it 🦩🌴!
So I love 8-2-12 for the palms it has everything they need. Attaching a link to my storefront with the Palm gain and the Biffen pesticide. I have a video on my storefront on how to use it. Hope it helpful. www.amazon.com/shop/constructionlandscapewithdesignsbyjennifer?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsfshop_aipsfconstructionlandscapewithdesignsbyjennifer_GDAA6RWRKKGCC0J17NYJ&language=en_US
Palm trees, can't get enough of them, love them in landscaping. You made me fall in love with foxtail palm. Can i place so nails around the trunk of the plam tree to hang some plants? Also can you please do a video about ferns
They are easy to love aren’t they. I think their trunks are too soft to attach anything too though. Yes I love ferns so can incorporate them into a video.
New subscriber, awesome love your Videos keep them coming! You learn so much with ideas, I'm tuning in from the Island of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. Can you do a video explaining in depth what trees and plants are great against house structures around the house property. That will not affect the foundation of houses or wallways due to there root structures etc like do's and don'ts. That would be awesome!🙏
Welcome to the channel, and thank you so much for the support! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos and tuning in from beautiful Puerto Rico! That’s a fantastic idea for a video-I’d love to dive into which plants and trees work best near homes without causing issues to foundations or walls. Stay tuned, and thanks again for the awesome suggestion!
True Gardener! I’ve been heavily debating between a spindle and bottle palm for the end of one of my garden beds. I love the height of bottle palms, but I’m not quite a fan of the shape once it hit maturity. This video was right on time! :) Thank you for great content and I hope I wasn’t too much of a fan girl at Palm City Palms lol
Oh are you kidding it was so cool to meet you. So if I may weigh in on the spindle and bottle palm debate, I love spindle Palms in a shadier environments. In full sun, they tend to look too orange for me however, the triple spindle palm I have in my backyard that’s protected is absolutely a favorite of mine. They’re just stunning and I really think they look lovely as they get big too. The broad canopy of a bottle palm is pretty magical if you have the room for it, and as for the base, I’m sure you could find several fun understory plants to skirt it. Good luck Gardner. It was my pleasure meeting you.
True gardener! Always love your videos. What is the palm between your 2 Fox Tails palms? I love travelers palms but just don’t have the space for them.
Hey there if it’s the silver palm you are meaning it’s a palm native to Cuba. Without spell check I’m sure to butcher the name but it’s called coppernecia Falensis.
I know, right I could literally do a video of 200 of my favorite palm trees and still leave out 10 of my other favorites. It’s so hard to pick between my children.🤣
Every time you put out a video I break an ankle running to TH-cam. Can you put out content on planting near a septic tank and privacy hedge/island on a very thin strip of property, about 2ft. 💜💜
Hi! You often mention ruby reds in your videos, but I am not sure what plant you are referring to specifically. Can you tell me if it’s a lorapetulum or something else? Ty!
Hi and yes Ruby Red would be the common name! The bontatical name would be Alternanthera brasiliana var. villosa, known as little ruby and ruby leaf alternanthera as well 😁
I love them. I have one in my yard. I can talk about it. I wish I could find more of them. They’re just not as common but what a beautiful variety they are aren’t they?
Sometimes we do, but not very often! I wonder sometimes why we dont have more haha, like what wrong with my garden, dont they want to come and hang out hahaha🤣
Let talk about the elephant in the room. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON WITH MAJESTY PALMS? NOBODY GROWS THEM IN GROUND? ITS RARE TO EVEN FIND THEM PLACED ANYWHERE.
I love majesty palms for a small area with some sun protection. I think people think because they grow so slowly they are not significant palms. I just used them on a project last week and love them for small areas.
@TrueGardener they are beautiful palms. Especially in their early to mid-size stages. They look like bottle-coconut palm hybrids. Beautiful. Wish they were more common. Are they really that sensitive to sun???

Oh hello fellow designer 👋. I’m glad you are finding the videos helpful and yes our soil or lack there of makes gardening a challenge 😃.

That’s great!! Can’t wait to meet you guys! Welcome neighbor!! 🪴🪴

I'm in southern California. I think this kind of landscaping should work in my zone 10a. Thank you ❤️
Amazing Collection of Palms. Here, Louisville, Kentucky have cold hardy varieties of palms.

I am looking forward to the book .Love your shirt.
Me, too!
Thank you, Allison. We’re so excited about it. Can’t wait to share it with all you guys.
I love Foxtail palms. Robellini, Christmas Palm, Bottle palm and Bismarck too. I have them all in my Garden in Puerto Rico.
Yes, that’s a beautiful combination of Palms. I bet it’s lovely.
@@TrueGardener it sure is. They all look awesome!
Wow, your yard has really filled out...looks nice!
Because i do have black snake i gues they do love my garden 😊

Oh thank you Chica. I know you are a Palm lover. You have a beautiful selection of beauties.
This was a great video. I have all of these problems except for the bottle in my yard. I can’t wait for the book.
Thank you, Denise. We’ve been working so hard on it. I cannot wait to share it.
❤❤❤True Gardener…..also like your shirt
Thank you, John. I love that shirt too.👋 True gardener!
I can’t wait for your book! I hope one day you offer design courses.
For Dwarf Coconut Golden Malayan Palms, What feed should i be giving them and how often ? also What do you use to rid palms of Mealy bugs ?

You walked right past the Spindle Palm to highlight the overplayed Christmas Tree Palm? What the. Lol

lol you’re too funny. Love it. Now that sounds like a challenge and a great video topic. Putting it on the list. Thank you!

Hi and yes Ruby Red would be the common name! The bontatical name would be Alternanthera brasiliana var. villosa, known as little ruby and ruby leaf alternanthera as well 😁
I would say European fan palm is also a beautiful but not big in size slow growing palm but also cold hardy for all of us that don’t live in Florida.
Oh yes! Love the survival instincts of that tough palm. One of the best for sure.
Love your videos. Do you ever plant a Malaysian Dwarf Coconut Tree? Can you do a video on one?
I love them. I have one in my yard. I can talk about it. I wish I could find more of them. They’re just not as common but what a beautiful variety they are aren’t they?
@@TrueGardener Yes, the best part I love they don’t grow enormous like the regular coconut palm.
No Royal palms?
lol I would have to have listed 20 or 200 palms to get all my favorites in there. Love the stately royals definitely a beautiful variety.
Are you get snake over there?
Sometimes we do, but not very often! I wonder sometimes why we dont have more haha, like what wrong with my garden, dont they want to come and hang out hahaha🤣
