- Today’s video is an unboxing of one of my online plant orders. This is just one of MANY great places to purchase healthy and new plants on the market. I am not affiliated with ANY garden centers or nurseries mentioned in this video and the video is not intended to be an advertisement for them. However, I am happy to support small family businesses no matter where they are located. It is hard to find these new varieties of plants in my area. This video is intended to show you the quality you get when you purchase plants online so that you have confidence when placing your orders.

I’ve had 2 orders from Creekside, and I’ve been very happy with both. My Miss Molly butterfly bush has only been in the ground a short while and has a small bloom already. Nice order!
@@PeggyMills awesome!!!! This was my first order but I will DEFINITELY be ordering again. I could tell that great care was put into the packaging of each plant. And they did make a boo-boo on one of the hydrangeas (I ordered the “Wee Bit Innocent” but they sent “Wee Bit Giddy”) and I emailed them and they were very kind and said they would immediately ship out the correct plant. I felt almost guilty even contacting them.. but I really wanted that softer pink color of the “Innocent”. Thank you for your comment ❤️❤️❤️
Well, If you are spoiled I'm in full support because you turn around and spoil us with your videos! I too spend on little else besides bare necessities and what I want for my gardening interest. It's a wise investment...(yeah, that's the ticket) because plants appreciate as they get bigger and they also increase the value of real estate. My gardening budget eliminates a gym membership for exercise, reduces my food costs, chips away at the property maintenance budget and replaces my entertainment expenses. So actually, I'm saving a bundle. Lol I'm sounding a bit spoiled now, too , and good at rationalizing! I wish I could find an online nursery that was affordable. I searched recently and found one just 100 miles away and they had a euphorbia plant i have been longing for...however, the $23 plant was going to be an additional $93 for postage....in my own country!!! I envy the prices and phenomenal sales you get in the US. The only one of your new plants I have experience with is the Pearl Glam. Mine had very dark purple/blackish green foliage. I'm wondering if yours might be another mislabeled one or perhaps it just needs to be in the sun to darken up??? The form of this plant was beautiful but the berries were so tiny you had to be right on top of the plant to see them. That may have ben my zone 5b location and a result of a shorter, less hot growing season but since I bought it for the berries as much as the beautiful foliage I was very disappointed with it. I have replaced it with a gray/green leaf variety with large, pea-sized light pink berries and love it too.
@@patbryan602 I LOVE your rationale for plant purchasing! I agree with every point! Haha
I am sorry your costs are so high for shipping plants. It would be cheaper to drive there huh?
I hope my Pearl Glam is what I expect. There are so many disappointments in gardening… from insect damage to fungal disease…. From rabbits to storms…. I just don’t need any more disappointments. I know you feel the same. Gardeners DEFINITELY must have thick skin and tough nerves!
I will keep you posted on how they all turn out. Thank you (once again) for your encouraging comment and support!❤️❤️❤️
@@letsgrow260 Well I owe you a big THANK YOU because I just went to one of the online sites you recommended and they deliver to Canada (the first I've found) and the shipping is only $30 to Canada for up to a purchase of $100. I do have to pay 25% extra for the dollar exchange but I have found several things I've been wanting ages for and a couple that you have shown. I'm letting my "thrill" aka mania subside until tomorrow to make sure I'm not over doing it....who Me? I now have available space for more garden area in the back. Oh, perhaps this will serve as a good thank you; I am looking out the window at my Colored Hulk hosta. It's tri-colored green streaks - high contrast - holds color all season - has flowers like no other I've seen. The buds are deep violet and the bloom opens to a 6 pointy-petal almost white star about 1 inch wide on short scapes slightly taller than the foliage. It's an older variety. Rainbow's End is another one I could say all the same things about and it is available at Great Garden Plants. it's blooms are small violet trumpets with dark lilac purple stripes on red/purple scapes.
@@patbryan602 that’s awesome that you found an online store to deliver to you! I am praying your plants arrive healthy and happy!🙏😃 please let me know about your experience!!
And I love hostas so I will be looking up the “Colored Hulk” hosta IMMEDIATELY cause I just never go wrong with hostas and I love the one you mentioned before❤️. It’s doing great and I plan on planting it once the heat subsides a little. Thanks again for your comments. 🥰
@@letsgrow260 I will keep you posted on my plant haul but please don't think I will hold you responsible if they don't make the journey. It's just another experiment to me. I wonder if you have an opinion about this: I really want to get a Little Lime Tidbit and a Mauvette hydrangea. They are one quart size so I'm guessing very tiny (5" ?) I plan to pot them to grow on but do you think they will tough it out in the landscape over winter (-10 F) if I transplant in the Fall? They are 2 zones hardier than my zone. I also had an after thought about you Beauty Berry...P.W. also has a green leaved one called Proud Berry with large dark pink berries that really stand out in the landscape. I don't have one but from what I've seen in other videos it is a smothered in berries...it would be a favorable substitute!
@@patbryan602 I have two “Proud Berry” coral berry plants. They do not like my heat and humidity but are doing well. They got pretty big too. I have ordered the dwarf hydrangeas and they come super tiny so be aware. But I honestly think fall planting is better in some ways for these cold tolerant plants. The heat seems to reallly stress them.
