    Conifers have been a passion of mine for the last decade. I became obsessed with them the first time I laid eyes on a Weeping Norway Spruce. I thought to myself, can this grow in my zone? From there, I was hooked! I began researching and planting all different kinds of conifers to find out which ones could thrive in the South.
    In this video, I cover many different types of conifers that thrive in zone 7b. For your reference, I list the zone range of each conifer. That way if you live in a different area you can know if it will thrive for you!
    Hi!
    My name is Justin and I have my managed my family's business (S&K Greenhouse) for the last 10 years! It is a local garden center in Shelby, NC that my family started around 25 years ago.
    We have a strong desire to discuss and teach gardening to the online community and welcome anyone who wants to learn. Though we have been involved in the plant world for decades we have found that there is always something to learn when it comes to gardening.
    Whether you are a master gardener or just starting out this channel is for you. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our videos!

    I had a wonderful blue spruce that I grew from about 2ft tall. After about 20yrs, it was about 12/15 ft tall but after a tornado knocked down two huge shade trees in a couple neighbors' yards, it burned to a crisp without that late afternoon shade.

    Can you make a video about how to obtain well draining soil in the south specifically those of us who have a yard full of nothing but red clay. How do you plant conifers properly in red clay. What soil amendments do you add? How do you avoid "bath tubbing" in red clay? Do you plant them above ground only and then build up a dirt mound around the root ball, Etc. If you have already made a video that explains this and answers these questions, I apologize for the unnecessary post here and I would love it if you could direct me to that video or info please. Those are some gorgeous and very expensive looking conifers you have there. Very Nice!

    • @Jane-West

  • @jayoung-lq4qm
    @jayoung-lq4qm ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Dustin your videos make me crave more evergreens! I have treated my not-so-great clay soil with soil amendment & pine mulch for years so the top 8 inches drain pretty well but below that when you hit clay, drainage slows down. 2 years ago, I tried my first evergreens-- a cryptomeria & sweet bay magnolia, which seem to be doing ok. Does this mean I might now risk a cedar, pine, or even spruce? I guess I am asking, how deep does the "well-draining soil" need to be for these evergreens? I desperately want some weepers for my zone 7 yard.

I already have a conical juniper, now I long for a very small but very blue and plush Spruce. I want the bluest, smallest, plushest for Long Island, NY. Can you direct me, please? Also, I notice that you have not spoken on Barberry? Why not?

How this serious limits landscaping. As my area normally gets like 8 inches of rain in like 2 days monthly for like 5 months. Tropical storms drill my area each year. But few found at nurseries here in puetro rico. Hollies aleazeas hydrangeas arboritivae layland cypress juniper. In like zone 13
