I have a playlist called foundation plants that has 152 videos that I have done for plants that will work on a foundation. I linked it in the description. I said Purple Daydream instead of Purple Diamond at one point in the video. It happens. Thanks for watching.
Jim, thank you for this video! I have a completely bare foundation and this is exactly what I needed! You anticipate what new gardeners need and make corresponding videos - which I really appreciate. Thank you for your expertise, time and effort!
It would be fantastic if you were to do some of these types of videos at a nursery farther north so we could see screening or foundation plants that would be hardy in colder climates.
Thanks so much for this type video. I watch the entire video, find plants that I want in my landscape, then go back and take a snapshot of those where you have included the name. I then take that to my garden center. Works great!
Thanks for adding some plant choices that are non toxic to horses. Living in an equestrian subdivision, these types of plants are the only ones I should have in my landscape. I live in Aiken SC zone 8 so I like to follow your channel.
Love these type of videos!!! Heck, I love all your videos 💚
I have almost all of these planted somewhere in my yard( zone 7b) and they are all really fantastic plants. Jim always has great advice and recommendations. Thanks!
I regret not buying some azaleas early in the spring, I literally cannot find them anywhere right now and feel like I'm going to be missing out on these gorgeous blooms
Thank you Jim. So happy I discovered your channel. Moved to SC from NS, Canada where summers are very short and cool. Couldn't put anything in the ground before June 1 and sometimes closer to July before frost risk is gone. Gardening for over 20 years, but I have so much to learn about plants here in the south. So exciting all the new options! :) Your videos are super helpful! Cheers!
Just purchased new construction in zone 9. House is on a corner lot with only poorly sodded Bahia. Where some might be daunted, I only see a blank canvas.
The information you provide will be very handy. 👍
Thank you for showing these videos again. Already planning for next spring. It helps to see these shrubs next to each for color and shape.
Thank for the video Jim! You really give great advice for those of us in the Southeastern U.S.! Keep up the good work!
I think most of my foundation plants made this list! My favorite are Autumn Chiffon Encore Azalea and Lemon Lime Nandina. The builder put in the Helleri Holly, and I’ve moved them several times. They are pretty easy to take care of.
Awesome video keep the great work up!!!!
I’m working on my front beds this fall. This timely info.
Thanks for the suggestions!!
Have a blessed day and week
Blush pink Nandina looks like a great contender for my beds. Thought it was a variety of loropetalum. 👌
I have lots of Nandinas. It’s a perfect plant to fill space without being invasive. I also planted Dwarf Purple Pixie for a small dose of the beauty Loropetalum brings. My faves are my Autumn Embers and Autumn Sunburst Azaleas. I love that they bloom both Spring and Fall.
I planted soft-touch hollies this year, they're doing well here in Northern NJ. The light green glossy new foliage really make it stand-out!
Thank you for introducing us to all these beautiful plants. Would you also include more information about each plant. Such as height and width? You do it on some but not all. Thanks.
Excellent content. Blessing to you & thanks Jim.
Some gorgeous plants there, love all the different shades of green and plum 😍
Thanks for this video! Have very low windows and a ton of hot sun in front of my house. Definitely need all the recommendations you can give!
Don’t forget to talk about this crazy thorns on Barberry, and is Nandenia poisonous? I read not to have Nandenias where animals walk. Any truth to this?
Thanks for so much info in such a concise video
I wish I lived in zone 7 so I could use some of these beautiful plants.
How big does the color guard yucca get? Thank u love this video ❤
Jim, living in Bama I am searching for plants to plant this fall. There is absolutely nothing out there, big box stores are wiped out, my local nursery’s are wiped out. Can I order from Southern Living or should I just go back to Plants by Mail ? Also, I am looking to plant Elephant Ears in full sun what do you suggest, was hoping for bulbs.
Can August Beauty survive zone 7b winters? At the garden center the winter hardiness shows as 30°F but it can definitely get colder in zone 7b Ga.
I have about 10 azaleas and they get lace bugs every year, is there a way to manage without systemic insecticide?
Really? Barberry? Do you know what a disaster barberry has become in the wild now that they have taken over? Hard to believe people still selli them much less recommending them.
Great variety. And all will grow in central Texas, too! Woo hoo. Thanks so much. Now I will wait for the more shade loving. Be safe 👏🏻💕👏🏻
I like your videos, could you please add more information regarding full growth heights and spread in size which would be quite helpful when making a determination on selecting some of the plants you are recommending, and whether they are sun or shade plants or tolerate part shade. Thank you very much enjoy the video
Does the Hartlage wine sweetshrub have any major problems? Also shade or sun..live in Florence SC..love all your videos.
Fantastic watch! Informative inspiring motivational Subbed !
The kind hobbies empirically order because steel lately hate under a hapless battle. ablaze, good dragon
Sadly my loropetalums did not survive the winter in Oklahoma.
I just love the encore azaleas. Would love to figure out how to incorporate them with what I already have.
Always helpful information, Jim!! Tku very much!
So helpful!! When will the shade foundation video be out? I need that one the most right now.
If using Viburnum for a foundation hedge across front of house, would you use 3 or 7 gallon Viburnum? Wanting hedge to be widow seal hight.
The 7 gallon are just further along in the growth process.
Can I plant box in the shade
Awesome video, thanks 😊 🙏 👍
I love your channel but am having trouble hearing you. I am even using earphones and am not hard of hearing. Can you please up the volume? Thank you much.
Sounds like your device could be faulty if earphones don’t adequately boost the volume.
Thank you for sharing this video! 🤗
Great suggestions. Thanks🌲🌿
In North Louisiana the deer eat our Indian Hawthorn even before they eat our Hosta's.
They are the top of the list for sure
Nandina propagates by rhizome. It is still listed as invasive in GA.
Even that is slow on these varieties.
How big do those nandinas get?
🎉❤u rock
Love that purple daydream very pretty😍
Thanks for the video!
That rose is nice!
What is best to plant around a foundation that has draining
I live in ky. Water tends to drain towards my house i will need to try reroute drainage soon but house is on a slope so what would be best to plant around it.? Thznks for any info. I have bought 4 different shurbs and one flowering plum tree are these okay to plant here? 2sky pencils and 2 dwarf alberta spruce.
Is Abelia related to Weigela? They look similar
They are both in the honeysuckle family. Those bell shaped flowers are similar
Great information!
Very helpful! Thank you!
I see a lot of extensions discouraging people from planting barberry as the birds spread the seeds into natural areas. Its supposed to be very aggressive and displaces a lot of native vegetation. For that reason I have avoided it but its such a popular plant in garden centers and does look nice. People are going to buy whatever they like regardless, but I think garden centers could maybe do a little better job of stopping the sale of these kinds of plants. Burning bush is another one with the same problem. Not trying to be preachy, do whatever you want on your property but its something to think about.
I used to think the same thing, but it's silly of us to think that everything we see around us is "native" as if time and our planet stood still for millions of years. If your local birds are eating it and spreading it, and it's thriving, sounds to me like a perfect ecosystem.
E Johnson I get what you’re saying but the problem with that is these things didn’t just show up naturally, they were imported at some point and planted here. The same with invasive animals. Nature has a way of creating its own ecosystems that work well together, invasive plants and animals throw that system way off and do cause problems. The DNR has lists of plants that you are required to eradicate for a reason.
mplslawnguy - There's some plants I wouldn't want to spread like English Ivy, bamboo and Siberian elm... But a lot of plants, seeds and animals traveled over entire oceans, even continents, and naturalized way before any of us existed. It's all part of nature. Sometimes even scientists don't agree on what's native. They're finding fossils of vegetation that's leading them to believe Greenland was once covered by lush jungles. Maybe some day that barberry you like so much will find itself under an ice sheet a mile deep? 😂
E Johnson Thats the thing, those plants, seeds and animals made their way to other continents on their own. That was natures way of spreading the plant. You can’t tell me Asian Carp is good for our rivers. Or milfoil and zebra mussels in our lakes. Certain species artificially introduced out competes everything and before you know it, all you have is Asian carp, or one type of understory bush in the forest. These things are a problem. Obviously this isn’t all non native plants. Most are perfectly fine and don’t really cause problems but there are a few that do. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to take a look at what you’re selling if you’re a nurseryman and maybe cut a few things out.

Nice series.
