Just ordered your planting calander. I AM SO EXCITED! I have always had a black thumb ... in fact: I come from generations of black thumbs! BUT I have so many plants growing right now! Because of you! Thank you a million times! I am so glad I am finally able to support you a little... as you have supported me over the last couple years with your no nonsence videos and encouragement in this harsh and beautiful climate.
Thank you , blessing s and peace.
Thank you!
Love this! I saw these growing wild in Missouri last summer but couldn’t identify. Will plant in Texas. They’re so pretty! Thank you❣️
Perfect timing. Thanks for the explanation on when to start sowing and why.
I had no luck twice but will try again in August since I live in Glendale AZ.
Wish to see this special garden at least once in life and get some giudence to grow the same at home"THE EXACT COPY"
Good to know! Thank you! I love scabiosa!
Awesome thank you
I love the Dark Prince. Such a unique color!
WOW never heard of it. Thank you Angela 😊❤
That[s a beautiful flower to add in my garden, Thank you
Pretty flowers
Quite Nice Cant wait to get some here in Apache Junction .Great you Share this
Wonderful video. I will put it on my summer sowing list . Thank you so much!
I just added pincushion flower (butterfly blue) to my garden. It was in my list for a long time 🙂.
Great video, good suggestion and lovely music.
I guess I'll be buying more seeds now.
Can't wait to try them in chandler.
Loved this video Angela! Instructional cutting is so helpful! My plants have gotten a bit wild 🙃 I see I have some tidying up of my Black Knight Scabiosa. It’s been a long wait for blooms & so worth the wait! I will be adding additional colors this fall! Fantastic blog as well! Thank you!
Thanks Thelecia!
I love these flowers!
Are some perennial because I had a plant come back exactly where I put it.
6 in OH.
Yes, in your zone it can be. The ones for cut flowers are usually annual varieties and differ from the perennial ones.
Thank you! Looking forward to trying these! For verbena- how and when should seeds be harvested and saved?
Let the flower die back and seed pods develop, wait to harvest until the seeds turn black inside the pods.
Beautiful flowers! Do they do well in containers also?
Yes. I've grown them in small and large containers. They do well in both, but last longer into the summer in the larger containers.
Hello from a fellow MG in North Carolina . Angela, my question: Where did you get the growing reference guide you were using in the video. That would be a great guide for using with beginner gardeners, and I loved the top flip pages.
Thank you
I made it. It's a planting calendar for my zone/area. It's available in my shop: growinginthegarden.bigcartel.com/products
thanks for sharing your knowledge. I live also in AZ and I wanted to know when is the best time to water the plants during this time of the year? I have bougainvilles and start jasmines and all of them are in planters, any tips?
Generally I like to water in the morning and make sure plants are hydrated for the day.
@4:24 is that a baby hummingbird?🤔😯🥰👌🙏
Good eyes. Or maybe a hummingbird moth (?)
Hover fly
4:23 What is the little flying creature?
Hover fly
Do you have a link to that calendar?
Yes, I sell it in my shop growinginthegarden.bigcartel.com/product/perpetual-annual-flower-planting-calendar
What are you thoughts on water storing crystals? Miracle grow has a brand that has AMAZING reviews. I live in a very hot climate but am uneasy about adding things to my soil. The brand Terraloch is cellulose based. I just worry about what is left in the soil because I think they only last about 3 years.
I wouldn't add those. You could add things like vermiculite or perlite instead.
Hi, Angela. I noticed you have wood chips in your garden. Do you recommend using them as mulch? Some TH-camrs discourage their use, claiming they rob your plants of nitrogen. Is this true in your opinion? I have some in my raised beds and don’t know where I could find hay/straw which they prefer. I live in the El Paso, TX area.
I don't mix them into my soil - they are on the top layer as mulch. Nitrogen loss is minimal - you could look for straw at someplace like Tractor supply or a feed store
Are they a perennial if we don’t get down to 10 degrees? Or do I need to start them every year?
San Antonio Zone 9a
Most varieties for cut flowers are annuals. There are perennial types you can grow as well.
I'm guessing Florida zone 9A is out of the question if it loves that far north
I'm zone 9b - you would plant yours outside in the fall.
@@GrowingInTheGarden thank you very much I would have totally gotten that backwards.
@@GrowingInTheGarden if you would please I have a question. Is it possible for me to propagate this ranunculus that I have put in the ground about a week ago? I think I did the planting wrong I know I did soak it properly but I don't know if that's something we can have here. Thank you so much..
