I think I've watched this video 20 times. Getting ready to redo our front yard. After 20 years, our plants decided to call it quits. So many ideas! I love it.
You have me motivated to work in my garden everyday even after my knee surgery I am recovering from,I sit on a bucket and work around my wrapped knee lol..Thank you for sharing your energy and knowledge!
I love using small shrubs mixed in with my perennial gardens. The difference in size and texture makes the garden so much more interesting than just having flower plants.
Sooo informative. I have learned so much from you and find your videos so relaxing! As someone with a small yard, I loved this one. Would love to see more videos with plant ideas or grouping of plants for those of us with small yards. So jealous if your beautiful piece of property!!! Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your channel!
I enjoy these videos so much - information and pictures! I can see what will grow here in hot, humid Florida and also what I can't grow as you provide the range of zones instead of just the coldest temps they can take. I have to plan around the hottest temps and wettest air. Thanks so much. That Pollypetite Rose of Sharon should do well as those always grow with no help down here.
Was so excited to see 2 of the shrubs I got on your video. Can’t wait to see my Fire Light Tidbit and Baby Lil Kim shrubs bloom. Love the info you provide in the video and example pictures.
Love this PW! Please keep videos like this coming because many of us are in suburban gardens with little space. Please show as many pictures as you can of how Laura has planted them for the visual (I would have loved to seen the image of how Laura planted the Tiny Wine Ninebark (pink profusion + others). Would also love to learn more about gardening basics for small gardens. For example, it's easy to get carried away and put a lot of different plants into a small garden (when that isn't a good thing to do) - so some helpful guidance /rules of thumb for best visual appeal would be so appreciated! Thanks so much for this video!
Thank you for making this video especially! As a suburban gardener, I need to plant smaller bushes. This has been so helpful and inspirational as always! You make me wish we had more land💜
Thank you so much for this video, Laura. We’ve recently moved and planning a new (urban) garden, specifically one that incorporates more small shrubs, pollinator attracting perennials as well as having 4 seasons of interest. Whew. I need to go back to all of your videos and start taking serious notes. Thank you both for the wonderful videos! Happy October 🎃
Another very nice little shrub is the sweet box (that is not a box lol), Sarcococca hookeriana var. humilis. Nice, dark green leaf, grows just about everywhere (even in complete shadow), blooms in February and gives a delicious perfume to your garden.
This was WONDERFUL 🌈 I 'm having some trouble finding Pillar Rose of Sharon in my area . Any ideas ? They just seem to be perfect for me . I don't have but Black Lace Elderberry and a Barberry bush that I could possibly envision as winter interest . My garden is just getting started so empowering myself this year with the Fiskar shovel and pitch fork and hand tool were a must for me . It's exciting doing this all over again. New Beginning .. New Blessings ... Even the poor broken Quick fires bloomed. The BO BO 'S & the 2 Limelights are making quite a Show for 1 year Old plants that were broken like yours ❗ I never worried over 3 leaves and a stick in a pot ever before . It's a miracle to have found Garden Answers that day Laura 🤗. I just kept watering them 🙏🏼💧🙏🏼💧🙏🏼💧🙏🏼 🕯..
They are for sale on our website, both have larger sizes also available in addition to the quart size, these are truly beautiful plants, here is a link, www.provenwinners.com/plants/search?keywords=Pillar%20rose%20of%20sharon&hardiness_zone=All&duration=All&flower-color=All&light_requirement=All&available_online=All
I love so many plants that are like zone 3-7 but I am a zone 8b. We are in south east Louisiana/south west Mississippi area. When a plant is a zone 3-7 can they grow in a zone 8b? What exactly does this mean for a zone higher?
Are you planning on planting seeds in green house to winter over , and get ready for early spring plants. Like sweet peas, or holly hock, or foxglove, or garlic? What is green house going to do all winter
Thanks for watching...when we cover a good number of plants in a single video it is hard to cover all the details, and that's why we also include links for more info. We appreciate you pointing this out to us.
It is fragrant, and that is why it is also deer resistant. But note that it is 3 feet in height at maturity, so the scent most likely will not be noticeable unless a person bends over to smell the plant. Our Scentara lilacs have the strongest scent, here is a link. Note the heights are different between the two. Thanks for watching! www.provenwinners.com/plants/search?keywords=scentara&hardiness_zone=All&duration=All&flower-color=All&light_requirement=All&available_online=All
I really enjoy these reviews of various types of plants … however, I really wish there were more plants acclimated to zone nine available for you to present. In this session, there were only two. Where I am, I also have to be aware of soil ph because we have fairly alkaline conditions. I am always looking for plant that will add architectural interest, color in the leaves and texture. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a link to our retailer locator where you can search for a store in your area by zip code, www.provenwinners.com/retailers/locate If you still cannot find the plants locally each of the individual plant links above will take you to a page where you can order the plant from. Please know most of what we have left this time of year are smaller, in quart sized containers. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video. I am adding a few to nect year's list. You mentioned planting in a way you have blooms all year. If possible, could you plant a four season area so we can get ideas on how to have a year round garden? I have only one area to plant flowers next year and would like to choose varieties (mostly petenials) that bloom all 4 seasons. I live in zone 7.
Laura thx for your great videos, however I’m confused about zones! Your zone 6 & so am I, however we are 1365 north of you on the BC/ Alaska border and get a ton of rain. Help me understand better about zones.
In Texas you want to choose hydrangeas that will do best in full sun, such as Bobo, and then plant it where it can get 3-4 hours of afternoon shade. Also remember these plants LOVE water, after all, the word 'hydra' in Greek translates to 'water'! So hoping that both of these tips help you be successful with hydrangeas. Visit a local garden center, they might know a certain type of hydrangea that will work best where you are located. Thanks for watching!
Btw, my dwarf bridal wreaths grow six foot tall. What a joke. The only shrub here that stays short is spirea, which I love, but. Oh, and Chardonnay Pearls Deutzia.
Hi Pam, please know that our breeding effort has resulted in many plants that are now non-invasive. Times have changed from the older plants that did warrant concern--FYI, we do note invasiveness on each plant information page when applicable, so those who plant our flowering shrubs are aware of the possibility.
For some yes, for others, not always. A regular spray of Plantskydd in spring helps this situation greatly, you can find out more about this product online. It is systemic, meaning that it does not matter if it washes off after a rain, it gets into the plant and changes the taste, which is a deterrent to deer and rabbits too.
@@ProvenWinnersTH-cam I'll check it out. I live in a wooded subdivision in NH. The deer pressure is significant. I have captured as many as 8-10 deer in my yard at night and they will go to town quickly. Deer resistance is a major consideration for what I will/can plant. The only thing that works so far has been the plants up near the house. If you want to test plants for deer resistance send them my way as it's as real-world data as you'll ever get. My point is that many of these plants may work in more urban settings but if you have a lot of deer they will absolutely demolish them. I had a 5 ft smokebush taken down to nothing this past winter :( I will surround it with burlap this winter to protect it from Bambi.
@@MrStangdawg Those are tough growing conditions, keep in mind deer tend to avoid plants that are scented, or ones that tickle their nose, like a ornamental grass. They also do not like low lying plants, such as a short sedum, or dianthus, our guess is it is too much work to bend over that far! Here is a link for more info on Plantskydd, I personally prefer the spray, which internalizes itself to change the taste of the plant, reapply, and spray new growth continually through the summer. www.plantskydd.com/ Our shrubs are born in Michigan, so there is a deer challenge there as well, you can use our advanced search page to see what plants we do believe are deer proof, but we know when they are hungry enough they will eat the side of a house! www.plantskydd.com/

I always need to find more room in the garden when I see these beautiful plants.
I planted a Baby Kim Lilac early fall after I saw your last review, can't wait for next year!
So glad you did this video. It's going to be so helpful.
New Gardner in Ohio: This video was so helpful as we are redeveloping our garden. I am so excited to try these.
So good to hear about these small shu

Thank you for all the details about time of blooming and when to prune.
Was so excited to see 2 of the shrubs I got on your video. Can’t wait to see my Fire Light Tidbit and Baby Lil Kim shrubs bloom. Love the info you provide in the video and example pictures.
Thank for all of these options, i really like the smoke bush and most seem winter hardy!
Good afternoon, Laura 😊 Great list; thanks so much for your input! Very helpful. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
I love Garden Answer Laura does so much with proven winners and has convinced me of the quality
Great video. Noted the info I needed to plan! Thanks Laura.

Yay more ideas taken away! Loved it so much as I was needing more low maintenance bushes! Much appreciated!
You are so welcome!
So helpful as always! I have a new area to plant next to our new curved patio. Can’t wait to put some of these in!

Thank you Laura 🧤👒🐨🦘🇦🇺Karen from Australia
I hope we get to see a garden tour soon. I miss them. I’d love to see one at your parents house too.
I love love love this type of video

Love sweet sarcococca. Mine is thriving in almost complete shade. The blooms are so tiny but the scent in feb is delicious. I garden in Portland OR
Wow love them all!
So very informative and fun to hear about. Really wish I could grow more of these but I am zone 9 NE Fl. Thanks again.
Heh, I bet the zone 2 can be found here in Finland 😁 Love your videos, you keep me inspired!
Yes! Thank you!
Very helpful! Thanks again
Thank you 🙏🥰

I love your channel. Do you have any plants for zone 10?
We do, you can search quite a few variables here, www.provenwinners.com/plants/search/advanced
I love so many plants that are like zone 3-7 but I am a zone 8b. We are in south east Louisiana/south west Mississippi area. When a plant is a zone 3-7 can they grow in a zone 8b? What exactly does this mean for a zone higher?
I live in Brightwood Oregon...any suggestions for Evergreens and Hydrangeas
Fall planting for these bushes?
Very helpful. Thanks.
Great info really interesting for me in my zone 8/9 is the rose of Sharon!!! Thanks!
Are you planning on planting seeds in green house to winter over , and get ready for early spring plants. Like sweet peas, or holly hock, or foxglove, or garlic? What is green house going to do all winter
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Would any of these shrubs work as a cut flower?
Could you start by adding the zone(s) or have it on screen whenever you talk about any plant?
Thanks for watching...when we cover a good number of plants in a single video it is hard to cover all the details, and that's why we also include links for more info. We appreciate you pointing this out to us.
What do you use to fertilize you panicle tid bits?
Do you know if the baby Kim lilac has much scent?
It is fragrant, and that is why it is also deer resistant. But note that it is 3 feet in height at maturity, so the scent most likely will not be noticeable unless a person bends over to smell the plant. Our Scentara lilacs have the strongest scent, here is a link. Note the heights are different between the two.

I ordered the columnar white Rose of Sharon's from Proven Winners when I saw yours. Mine are purple did yours stay white?
I really enjoy these reviews of various types of plants … however, I really wish there were more plants acclimated to zone nine available for you to present. In this session, there were only two. Where I am, I also have to be aware of soil ph because we have fairly alkaline conditions. I am always looking for plant that will add architectural interest, color in the leaves and texture. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I agree. I see many tropical plants for zone 9 and those hardly have any variations of blooms.
I think it’s because she’s zone 6(ish)and they focus on plants she has in her garden. ;)
Those nine barks are so beautiful but here in zone 7b they struggle in our summer.
Hello - I live in Pueblo, CO Zone 5 - where can I purchase these shrubs (I prefer not to buy online)? Thanks

Curious if you were considering a knot garden or?????
Please do a video on how you curl your hair!!? I know - off topic
Too funny! Thanks for watching!
And you are asking Proven Winners?
Looks like Anna’s magic ball
I thought I had deja vu. Then I saw this was on PW 🤭
hahahah, me too! I KNEW I had seen this last week! 🤪
None better than Laura at Garden Answer!
Who doesn’t love tater tots❤️
Laura thx for your great videos, however I’m confused about zones! Your zone 6 & so am I, however we are 1365 north of you on the BC/ Alaska border and get a ton of rain. Help me understand better about zones.
It's how low your temperature gets.
Can you please make a video of the plant Persian Shield
That is an easy to grow plant, we appreciate your suggestion.
What about really Hot summers. I’m a zone 8 in north Texas. I love them but not having really good Luck with hydrangeas.
In Texas you want to choose hydrangeas that will do best in full sun, such as Bobo, and then plant it where it can get 3-4 hours of afternoon shade. Also remember these plants LOVE water, after all, the word 'hydra' in Greek translates to 'water'! So hoping that both of these tips help you be successful with hydrangeas.

@@ProvenWinnersTH-cam thanks for the tips🥰
💗
To me a dwarf needs to be three feet or under. Four feet is the beginning of a standard shrub and over six feet are large shrubs.
So what is recommended for a zone 3 that I could use in a pot and have it overwinter in my zone 5. Hah, even strawberries die out in pots.
Try Deutzia. Part shade.
Looks like a few movht do okay in containers for useith no yard just patios
Btw, my dwarf bridal wreaths grow six foot tall. What a joke. The only shrub here that stays short is spirea, which I love, but. Oh, and Chardonnay Pearls Deutzia.
I need small shrubs for zone 9
Here is a link where you can search for shrubs while also specifying your zone, thank you for watching! www.provenwinners.com/plants/search/advanced
So many zone 7 shrubs and not suited for my zone 8 garden. 😫
All beautiful, but most non-native and considered invasive.
Hi Pam, please know that our breeding effort has resulted in many plants that are now non-invasive. Times have changed from the older plants that did warrant concern--FYI, we do note invasiveness on each plant information page when applicable, so those who plant our flowering shrubs are aware of the possibility.
Many of these plants are deer food and get picked clean.
