- Planting ornamental trees and durable evergreens in and around the patio is a great way to define the area, add layers of height, and provide privacy. These trees have a smaller stature, which allows you to enjoy growing them in closer proximity to seating areas without overwhelming the space. Added bonus? They’re also relatively easy to maintain over time! Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist and Education Manager with Petitti Garden Centers, to learn just how easy it is to grow small ornamental trees in containers.
Thanks for all of your recommendations on growing trees in containers. Have a great day!

Any specifications on winterizing ceramic or plastic pots?
hello . im interesting of putting 2 small trees (not sure what kind yet) on my balcony , i live on the 6 story building . and i have plenty of sun and air and space . also out winter is not that cold , we dont have snow . what i like to know is what size of container do i need ? if u can give me some idea of sized in CM ..?? TY very much
question: if you bring them inside an unheated garage do they need to be by a window or is it okay to have the plant in a dark garage over winter?
I wonder that too!
A dark garage overwinter is fine for any of the trees/plants that lose their leaves. If you are going to bring an evergreen plant in the garage, it helps to have artificial lighting or a window.
@@PetittiGardenCentersthank you for the information!!
Great video! For the Hydrangea Tree, what size and type pot (ceramic vs plastic) would you use on the patio in NE Ohio? I would love to have a hydrangea tree on the patio with annuals planted below.
Pot size needs to be at least 2" wider & deeper than the root ball on the tree. If you want to plant annuals around the base, you will need a pot at least 6" deeper than the root ball so it sits about 4" below the top lip of the pot. Drainage holes are key, and so is propping up the pot over winter so it doesn't sit directly on your patio surface. Plastic vs. Ceramic is really a personal choice, there are pros & cons to both. Plastic is durable, lightweight, but will breakdown after a few years. Ceramics are heavier, frost resistant, but can be damaged if they freeze due to poor drainage.
@@PetittiGardenCenters thank you!! 🙃
What is the best way to protect a rose tree planted in the ground? I have 4 knock out roses grafted on a standard. I bought pool noodles to put around the trunks but what about the graft union?
Pool noodles are a great hack to protect the rose trunks. It's best to flair the top end of the noodle in order to try and have it surround the graft as best as possible or use an additional piece of foam insulation to wrap around the graft. Before you place the noodle on the rose tree, try spraying it with Wilt-Stop first, then the noodle/insulation. You can also try making a teepee out of supports/stakes and wrap burlap on it to reduce winter wind damage and keep off any heavy snow and ice.
I wish there was a tree type plant that will tolerate a northern exposure. early morning and after 4pm
The panicle hydrangea trees will work in that aspect, so will Redbuds, Dogwoods, and Japanese Maples!
@@WillieUnvlkanwow you scammers are moving from Facebook to TH-cam now
Don’t their root systems quickly outgrow the containers, then they die or must be repotted?
She addressed that in the latter part of the video.
