Robbie you owe us a live or video with Gary & the emus!!! 🥺🥺🥺 PLEASE!! Love you!! 😘😍🥰
I KNEW it! I KNEW it! I KNEW it! It's because of you I got some cuttings and began handing them out to friends! I'm in S.C. , guys, and yes the cabbage moth got to two of them this summer but it was unbothered. Mine is the Purple Tree Collard. [They root SO easily!!!]
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing this!!! I am so happy for you All 😊❤️❤️❤️
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy I'm going to cut some for dinner tonight! ❤❤❤
And they survive your winter??? My understanding is that tree collards do not survive freezing weather. If you have a tree collar variety that can get down to 0° I will pay big bucks for a cutting.
@@ebw78756 I swear I thought I answered you! Anyway, yes, they survive freezing. Past winter we had several days of 28* (F) and some topsoil in pots had even frozen.
I was diligent in heating water for the birds to thaw their bird bath water, morning after cold morning... BUT my rooting tree collards (new as of Sept or Oct 2023; autumn) were just fine.
I did nothing special except place all of them together... like I do in extensive freezing weather for my potted plants. [I think I remember putting a sheet over everything they were with as a just in case; but they were still in pots at this time.]
Now that they're all in ground - except for cuttings I've got rooting - I feel better about things but this winter will tell the tale!
I didnt know what a tree collard was before, until I started to watch your videos.
I bought some plants from a nursery last year.
One of my tree collards has grown to about 10 feet tall. And like you I love using the leaves to make plant food too. I have not tried to make a green juice yet, because the fruit birds love the eat the leaves too. The leaves look like beautiful French lace.
I have experimented and have successfully grown more plants from cuttings.
I even grew a curly kale from shop bought packet of leaves. I was so upset when we had floods and all my curly kale and cabbages died. I couldn't find a nursery who had plants.
Our daughter bought the curly kale from a grocery shop. She said to me "Mom tried planting these leaves". Well they all died except for one.
It was after that time I heard about Tree Callards.
Thank You Robbie for this very informative video on Tree Callard and why you would choose this one if you had to make a choice! 🌿💚🌿💚🌿
👋🏽 hi Robbie! Thanks for the tip. What a great food idea. I’m searching where I might find tree collars near me so I can get me one 🥰
love the idea of growing it in flower garden! Thank you
Oh Yes, you can grow them anywhere in the ground, in a pot...Thanks
Girl you are so creative.
I love the pocket you sewed on your shirt!
I am going to try tree collards from cuttings!
Good morning from Malaysia. I thought you are going to pick zucchini. Yes, collard is a wise choice. BTW, you look awesome today! With that wide brim hat n sunglasses, you'll make heads turn❤.
I was also going to say you’d choose zucchini! 😂 But, tree collards make sense - they are more versatile.
Glad we don’t have to choose only one, just the same. 😅
Hi Robbie good answer. I’m gonna see where I can get one of those plants.❤️🙏😘
I bought a purple tree collards cutting last month and I just ordered a rooted green tree collard cutting. I'm excited to grow these plants in my perennial garden. I can't wait to taste them💜 happy growing 💜
Love the collard tree forest you started. Definitely going to try these.
you are making me hungry!
Love that plant, or I should say Plants, they are all over the place here now
I had the hardest time finding plants or cuttings of the purple tree collard here in San Diego southern California. Nurseries don’t carry them, most never heard of them. One successfully ordered some small plants for me. Waited 3 months for them. They grew right away to two feet and stopped. Haven’t produced many leaves and only have the main stem.
I was also able to find some cuttings from Sequoias in San Francisco
They were planted in 2 gal pots from $Tree, in special organic raised bed potting soil with compost additives as you use.
Repotting them now into refreshed composting in place soil as you use and
with added kitty litter into 18 gal totes.
Just now got tree trimmer’s wood chips and hope to enrich soil.
I agree , you might sell cuttings to your subscribers.
You know that you should be selling cuttings so that we can grow what you are growing. I'm just saying that you like growing cuttings and that we want to grow it so...
It's almost like department of agriculture doesn't exist and invasive species that are damaging to different ecosystems prevent people from doing this. But you want to grow it because rich TH-cam lady said so!
Oh, I know that, what I cannot do right now is the shipping, that is a full time job and more 😮 I am trying to figure something out though, especially for my members
@@someusername4129 the only issue with tree colored, is you don’t want seeds unique cuttings. Nurseries do not want to deal with that.
I am trying to type this and it keeps changing it. What I’m trying to say is nurseries do not want to deal with cuttings, they want to deal with plants with seeds. That is the issue with this plant. It is best to get this plant in the fall or winter or early spring.
You don't want seeds. You need cuttings.@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
Tree collards won't grow here in Massachusetts. And in summer if I could grow it, we are infested with bugs that wouldn't let it grow without spraying or dusting. And I won't. I love how you are able to garden where you are!!
Wow thank you so much for this awesome information!
Should grow great in Moreno Valley, You are so welcome! thank you
I just dug up and threw away my six tree collards! I’d rather grow kale! It was a fun experiment, but I don’t really care for collards and can’t deal with all of the worm infestation and mildew! Btw, you look lovely in your hat and sunglasses!
Hi Abby this is Barbara from Southern California I live in Moreno Valley
Hi, to another Californian
I live in Moreno Valley Riverside county. I have set up a very special sanctuary here with lots of beautiful plants and I have something called "instant rain" that you might be interested in. It's a little project that I did years ago that turned out to be beautiful.
I had never heard of these before but have found a source to buy cuttings here in Australia, so will give it a go when I get my garden going….new house just getting infrastructure into place.
I think you’ll love tree collards, you probably know my husband is an Australian😊❤️
Hi there, I'm an Aussie. May I ask where you sourced the Collard cuttings? Id love to get some if possible. I've never seen them anywhere for sale. Thanks.
Ooops sorry Robbie. Sent this to you by mistake.
@@joolsmonash9855 Project tree collard…look them up. I haven’t tried to get any and hope they are helpful.
you didn't mention putting it in soup.
Oh MY, You are SO right, Yes, there are so many ways to use it! Thank you
I tried growing a purple tree collard from seeds last spring but it was destroyed by grasshoppers. But so was my broccoli and kale. I'll have to make a cover to keep the insects out before I try again,
A simple cover will work wonders! 😊❤️
Good question. Great answer. Quite a versatile and unique treat to eat. How do I get a cutting? Don't know anyone here in Southern Idaho that grows it. What about a plant nursery?...love the pocket on your T-shirt. Take care Robbie. ❤
As soon as I see a good source I will post it, the ones I see on line are not good… I bought mine years ago from CPG Nursery in Southern California. I wish I knew someone that would ship some of mine cuttings…still looking for someone. Best to get a cutting in the Fall. Thanks!
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
❤️🙏
Thank you so much for this information ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing
Hi Robbie! Oh yes I have some of collards I love them! Thank you for the tips I will make some cuttings and plant/stick it in my flowerbeds grow in rows ❤😊👩🌾 take care hugs and 😘 to Zoe
I chop the stems and toss on soups, it's delicious and mega nutricious! This is definately my favorite green!
Very interesting! Thanks! 😊
Thank you Robbie, You are amazing. I learn so much from you.!
Hi Robbie!
Hi Jackie❤️🌸😊
Well you hooked me I went an ordered a plant. My main question is will those white cabbage butterflies damage it like they do with the regular collards?
Yes. Collards are in the Brassica family, and at least in zone five, the cabbage butterfly will lay eggs and destroy unless you keep them covered with some sort of netting.
@@spir5102what is your favorite variety
BINGO! I just ordered 3 purple tree collards for me in Southern Oregon and right now I planted in 12" pots until I can figure where to plant them. Thank you for the idea. My broccoli plants helped me too. Happy Gardening!
Where do you order it from?
Where can one get cuttings?
@@SenoraCharcos I got mine from Ebay . Cuttings 2 months ago and they are starting to show growth . Wish me luck during winter.
Watch Robbie's video and you'll see where she ordered. They canceled my reply to tell you. Good luck.
Love my tree collards that I purchased because of your videos :-) But something has been eating the entire leaves of my tree collards, one collard has been stripped bare of all leaves! Tulle has helped a little. What could it be, need to find the culprit and a solution!!
I have never heard of tree collard - grow anywhere is my new favourite plant ! How do I find this . I am pretty sure I have not seen in our garden shops.
I bought one piece years ago from Ebay and another time from CPG Nursery in Southern California
@@sherry9649 Thank you -I live in Canada and although I think I have never see this -it is possible I just wasn’t paying attention as the whole tree collard I have never heard before.
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy EBAY ??? Fantastic! I am definitely going to look into this. I am not a big gardener but I do love to grow a few things . It is so rewarding to eat what you grow. This tree collard and I sounds like a good match. Thank you !
@@louonUT I just checked Ebay, and I personally do not like the ones listed there right now, if I were you,I'd wait until the Fall, some did not look like read Tree Collard, the others shown had way too many insect issues...
Where can I get a tree collard? I have never seen or heard of them except from you. We have plenty of collard plants but not tree collards. I want one.
I bought my Green Tree Collard from a Nursery in So Cal CPG, and a Purple Tree Collard from Ebay
I have never heard of tree collard. I don't know if I can find it in IN.
I got mine first purple Tree collard on Ebay, and a green Tree Collard at CPG in Southern California Nursery.
Wow thanks for sharing I never heard of it, I am going to look for it now on line, do you have any good links?
I must admit, I have links, but some do not look like Real true Tree Collard the leafs are too dark green and round and flat on the edges of the leaf, and the others just do not look good. If I find good links I will come back and post them, Thanks
Dear Robbie, thank you so much for your genuin, real simple with no bs:))) videos they are lovely informative and so encouraging! you are doing a great job thank you. I checked on line to buy some tree collard cutting they are up to $25 for a couple cuttings I live in southern california too so I was wondering can I just Buy it from you ? why not? after all you are to me the tree collard queen:) so what do you say can I? let me know. Have a GREAT day and I promise to eat what I grow as much as possible.
My guess is was zucchini too, but collard so nutritious and you can eat leaves all year.. zucchini can only eat the fruit
Your tree collard seems different than mine. Except for winter the stems on mine are stringy and in hot weather leaves can get tough or stringy.
I just read there is a Michigan Tree Collard cutting that's grows in the colder climates; but it is hard to find. I hope to find and grow, as I live in Zone 5-6.
Collards are a part of the brassica family so the cabbage butterfly will lay eggs on them and destroy them unless you use some kind of netting.
Thank You!! Your awesome!!
I'm trying to think how to manage this plant through the summer heat in East Texas .I guess I could root the cuttings indoors during the high heat and pest seasons. I'm confident they would last during hard long cold spells with a little TLC, and as you said, Robbie, they taste best in the cooler weather ❤. Thanks for this video. What are the sun/shade recommendations?
Just an FYI. Purple tree collards can be perennial, but only zones 8 through 11. I am in zone five, so I would have to grow them as annuals.
I knew it!!!❤
I would grow zucchini. Zucchini could feed the world. Zucchini bread, Zucchini pasta, Zucchini relish, Zucchini pancakes, baked zucchini, coleslaw, green drinks and on n on. You can't do that with onions or kale. You can freeze zucchini, shtedded or in slices to last you through cold climate winter months, unlike lettuce or collards. Zucchini is so versatile.
Ordered my tree collard today will see how is does on cape cod mass
Sadly, mine did die last year in our 14* temp with rust Al east wind.
Next time propagate from a plant right away, I know how things go, we can forget, I do that too, but I would try again.
Interesting selection. Thanks!
I would hate to grow just one vegetable. How are the Emus doing. How about an update on them.
They are doing okay, getting big still have not heard from the girl that is supposed to take them back.
Oh I showed them in their new yard in the garden tour
Another question. I can’t recall you or Gary mentioning GOPHERS being a critter problem.
Do you think the heavy layer if wood chips throughout your properties determining factor ?
Plus your soil has been so enriched i imagine anything will grow in your ground; ex: augur planted tree collards and dragon fruit.
❤
I had a beautiful cutting that I planted in a large pot. It was growing new leaves and I was so excited, then I went out in the morning and something had eaten the leaves, and a day or two later it was totally dead. I do not know for sure what killed it. I suspect earwigs but I’m not sure. What can I do to protect them if I start another cutting?
I’m looking at them and there are different kinds. What is the green one in the video with you?
Potatoes!😂
Atari forever!!!
Tell me about your shirt. Looks like you put a pocket on it I imagine for picking.
