We love hearing this Cindy, it has been a wonderful relationship for us, and she is just as sweet to work with as she is in the videos. Thanks for watching!
I was unable to pull up the list of plants you showed in this video. Love these informative videos. They help me prepare for the coming growing season.
I love you Laura!!! And I LOVE proven winners!!! I only plant natives and nativars so it would be soooo helpful to mention which are native in your videos 😊 I know that you guys have lots of natives now!!!! Thank you for your consideration.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate your suggestion, but it is hard to provide all the information needed in a video. However, each plant has an information page on our website, and that is indicated on that page, and this page also has lists of all of our native perennials and shrubs. www.provenwinners.com/Native
I’ve ordered many of these for a new garden bed extension in the GTA, Ontario zone 6a. String theory amsonia, banana cream II daisies, phlox from the Luminary series (I chose the previously released Opalessence I believe it’s called) along with old standbys (hosta, hydrangea, Veronica, salvia). Very excited! It’s not cheap but unless you have the time, space & skill to grow from seed (which I keep trying but I’m not very good at it!), I’ve learned it’s better to invest a little more in a larger, more mature plant from a trusted brand like Proven Winners. So many of the bulbs and bare roots I planted last year in an attempt to save money never even came up. Granted, I do have a lot of critters who may be to blame...
Thank you Laura. I love white hydrangeas ! I am hoping that you will address how to grow " sturdy", winter hardy, pure "white " hydrangeas and specific instructions for their care. You are so helpful.
The answer to this Kathy is to be sure the hydrangeas are getting the right amount of sun, most are full sun shrubs and many try to plant in part sun to shade areas. Also the pruning differs for each type of hydrangea, be sure to have specific pruning questions ready for wherever you purchase your plant, when, and how far down. For larger hydrangeas also try to keep them from high wind areas. One very sturdy white hydrangea is Bobo. Hope this helps.
Love this video! Now can you start a gofundme page for me so I can buy them all! Lol. I know you've done videos with information on deer and rabbit resistance. Can you do more? I live in Northwest NJ zone 6. My property backs up to a farm and I get all kinds of wild life including deer, bear, rabbits, coyote, fox, turkey etc. My property isn't fenced in yet so I can only look for critter resistant plants. Or if there are companion plants that could deter the critters?
Bridget, here is a link to a list of 12 types of perennials deer tend to avoid, typically they will not eat any plant that has a scent, or tickles their nose--such as an ornamental grass. They also leave the very low growing plants alone, too far to bend over perhaps? When all else fails, Plantskydd spray will help, it is systemic, meaning it changes the taste of the plant, vs being topical, which washes off in the rain and needs to be re-applied. I find myself using quite a bit of the spray in spring, spray at any sign of new growth (example: hosta--as they are poking out, as they leaf out, as the leaves grow and then the bloom). Then you should be set for the season. Hope this helps! www.provenwinners.com/learn/top-ten-lists/12-hardy-deer-resistant-proven-winners-perennials
If you go to this page you can search by plant type, color and exposure, www.provenwinners.com/ Click on the link for our advanced search if you want to add in additional criteria.
Hi Rachel, we do have a list online of perennials that many deer will ignore, www.provenwinners.com/learn/top-ten-lists/12-hardy-deer-resistant-proven-winners-perennials. We do not test our plants on rabbits, but we do recommend Plantskydd spray. It actually changes the taste of the plant, instead of washing off in a rain like other sprays. In the spring spray at any sign of new growth, which could be 1-2 times a week. Then once the perennial is fully grown out for the season, one last spray should last quite awhile, only spray again if you see signs of nibbling! It is an all organic product, we recommend the spray instead of the granules, much more effective. It does contain animal blood, but that does get absorbed by the plant over time. My hostas would be goners if I didn't use this in my own garden! Best of luck and thanks for watching!
Dear Laura, I would love the link listing the perennials. I'm not able to access it where you posted it for other followers. I don't know why. Thrilled to subscribe
This is the Proven Winners TH-cam channel, just an FYI, here is a link to our shorter perennials, much will depend on what zone you are in. Thanks for asking, www.provenwinners.com/plants/search/advanced?duration=Perennial&height-category=Short
Lemon Squeeze is noted as a plant that will control erosion, so yes, it should do well for you in that area. Keep in mind it will need more frequent watering in the first 1-2 years, until it gets established. This article also talks about this type of garden situation, we hope you find it helpful. www.provenwinners.com/plants/pennisetum/prairie-winds-lemon-squeeze-fountain-grass-pennisetum-alopecuroides
www.provenwinners.com/plants/search/year/2022?duration=Perennial We are sorry about that, try this one to see if you get to the pages for each of our new perennials.
Patricia, we have some part shade to shade perennials, here is a list. You did not say what your planting zone is, so you will need to sort through these to find ones that will work well in your area, www.provenwinners.com/plants/search/advanced?duration=Perennial&light-requirement=Part%20Shade%20to%20Shade
Laura, I am planning a memorial garden and in the center I would like to have a hydrangea standard. What perennials would you pair with that? I'm in zone 5a and have Loess Hills silt in my lawn. I love so many of these perennials, but i think I just need some direction. I'd have all of them if I could right now. 😊 Also, how far away should I keep any plants from the hydrangea standard?
Jodi, it hard to do landscape design in a comment, but depending on the mature height of the hydrangea you might want to consider drought tolerant perennials such as nepeta, perovskia and sedum. For spacing, keep the mature width of the hydrangea in mind. Say it is 20", and then the mature width of the perennials, say that is 10". Then take half of each measurement, which is 15" and that is the minimum spacing between the plants, if you want them to touch. If not add room. This is easier if you draw circles for each plant. If you need more help reach out to me a jeanine@provenwinners.com FYI, Laura does not answer the questions on our channel, we do :)
Good morning Suzanna, first of all we have to say--love your YT name! Here is a link to the variety of augers we offer, smaller ones for bulbs, wider ones that will create a hole the width of our plant containers, and even larger ones for landscape projects. They attach to a hand drill, if you have other questions please let us know via our website. Here's the link, thanks for watching! www.provenwinners.com/catalog/gardening-tools

I'm so inspired! I live in Central Oregon, zone 6, and my biggest problem is deer. I do have the Shasta daisies and they don't eat those, but are any of these deer proof, or at least deer resistant? They ate my hostas too.

Great video. Though I would prefer if you wrote the whole name in latin. Then non native English speakers will be able to translate to our own language more easily :-)
Every time I take Laura's advice for a Proven Winners plant it always works out. Because of her I basically buy no other brand of plants anymore.
We love hearing this Cindy, it has been a wonderful relationship for us, and she is just as sweet to work with as she is in the videos. Thanks for watching!
So true! Laura has made me a Proven Winners fan! I work at a greenhouse and preach the PW gospel and show them the success I’ve had.
Woot woot 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👋🏽
I gotta get some of those Hibiscus. They are beautiful.
