Thanks for pointing that out about the Red Buckeye! You're absolutely right, and it's great to have viewers like you who really know their plants. 🌿👍 The Red Buckeye (Aesculus pavia) indeed prefers cooler climates and typically thrives best in USDA zones 4-8. For those in warmer parts of Florida (zones 9-11), this shrub might struggle. But don't worry, Florida gardeners! There are plenty of other native shrubs that love the heat. Some alternatives could be Firebush, Beautyberry, or Yaupon Holly. These are well-adapted to Florida's warmer zones and still bring tons of beauty to your garden. Your comment is super helpful for other viewers. It's a good reminder that even within a state, growing conditions can vary widely. Always check the specific needs of a plant against your local climate before planting. Thanks for helping us all learn and grow together! 🌱💚
Half of those looked tree sized. I don't know if there is miscommunication between like, experts and home owners, but I expect a "shrub" to be much smaller. I want something that doesn't grow more than 3 ft tall and no more than 2 ft wide. I want to plant it and it stays there. It doesn't spread or grow too much. And why on earth would anyone recommend Bromeliads on south florida? Are you trying to breed mosquitos? Or plant something with a seed that is harmful to humans?
Thank you for your comment. It's important to consider the potential impact of plants on the sale of a home. If certain plants in your garden are known to be poisonous or toxic, it might be a good idea to assess whether they could pose a risk or deterrent to potential buyers. While some buyers may not have concerns about such plants, others may have children or pets and prioritize safety. It's always a good practice to disclose any relevant information about your garden to potential buyers so they can make informed decisions. Ultimately, it's a personal decision based on your specific circumstances and the preferences of potential buyers.

0:28 The warmest USDA zone for the Red Buckeye is zone 8, so it might not thrive in higher zone areas in Florida.

can the beauty berry be planted somewhat close to the foundation? looking for something that will grow about 6 foot high and help to screen windows
love this! especially since most of these are perennial
you're being misinformed. this video is full of lies
None of those bromeliads are native.
Ever heard of Florida? Last time I looked, it was part of the U.S. Some of the "bromeliads" actually ARE native to Florida. Do your DD!
A lot of the plants shown are cultivated varieties, not true natives.
Beautiful plants but if you plan to sell your home you have to remove them if they are known to be poisonous/toxic
