Does anyone think the “fast forward” is really just Laura’s normal speed and the rest of the video is slowed down. 🥰. Love her energy. Love her spirit! LOVE the hydrangeas! 🌸🌿
🤣🤣🤣
Laura’s real speed...fast forward!
Lol 😂 😂
😂
Yes I do. Can't Believe what She accomplishes in a Day. 😊😊😊
Yes! I've thought that to myself before!
Love the comment of "Sometimes you have to pull something out and try something new"! Thank you for sharing your garden with all of us.
Very satisfying to take care of a spot where your plants aren't thriving. I'm so thankful not to have the soil issue that you're combatting, but then I can't dig a hole in the clay without being on my hands and knees using the claw side of a hammer. Always trade offs :) And how I love hydrangeas. I have so many in my zone 7B gardens, maybe 50, and they never ever disappoint! Keep the hydrangeas coming!!! Love that particular garden of your property.
I chuckled when Laura said not everything works out. Started out 6 years ago with clay flower beds. It took 2 years before I read how to remedy the problem. This is the 3rd different bed of grasses and flowers I'm trying out. I hope to find right combo of soil and plants in another 2 or 3 tries. If not, back to Hostas. :)
Not the hostas! I have so much shade. Whenever i asked what plants i could use the only two answers-hostas and impatients. 😆
@@catsrus-es9eu ever tried out Anemone hupehensis or Anemone Japonica? It's for half shade. And Kirengeshoma palmata looks interesting. But it blooms late.
@@wiltrudfriesch6781 no..I'll look them up. Thanks!
Thank you for showing us realistic gardening! In the world of social media we are always shown what works, what’s perfect. So it’s nice to see that even the best gardeners have plants that don’t thrive. That really shows us what the mindset of any gardener (and really anybody) should be. If something doesn’t work, figure out why and what could be done differently and try again. Your videos are always refreshing and encouraging!
Those are gorgeous hydrangeas!! I love how they transform throughout the season. I cant wait to see you take after the lilac tree and get those suckers out, make it pretty and tidy again. Remembering your video the last time you cleaned one and the end result was amazing 🌸
I’ve been hearing her talk about since they moved into that house! 😁😁
Laura getting serious with the measuring tape!! This second time around it's going to be perfect! Thanks you for sharing your failures and fixes, It
gives the rest of us a real feel and the confidence to go for it!! Pull it all out and start again! Thanks for your knowledge and techniques Laura and Aaron, can't wait to see the updates!
That new hydrangea looks gorgeous, will be looking for that next year.
Thanks Laura, it’s so nice to see even experts like yourself can struggle with plants. We learn the most in our failures.
Every time I hear you speak of your high pH soil I remember a 'lecture' I attending regarding adding lime to your soil, which allows the plant to better absorb the nutrients already in the soil. The speaker was Ted Stephens of Nurseries Caroliniana (North Augusta, SC). At first I thought a lecture on Lime - UGH - how boring is this gonna be - but it was one of the best I have ever attended - learned a great deal. You may want to reach out to him for some info regarding this matter. I'm certainly no expert but I always like to pass along info or experiences I have encountered along my gardening journey - just as y'all have done thru your videos. I'm excited for this new variety of hydrangea - we, here in the South, just adore our hydrangeas - wouldn't be a southern garden without them !!! Looking forward to seeing this new hedge in all its glory.
I really like those new hydrangeas!! I hope they do well there. Seems you and Aaron are going to give them lots of love. I don't want you to have problems but it's good to see that things are not perfect for you either. Our benefit is that you help us fix the problems. For that I'm extremely grateful! ❣
You are working it again,Laura.Was waiting for your steady companion ,Russell..Got a glimpse.😃
I’m so happy to see you use a tape measure while planting. I thought I was the only one who does that. I feel validated, thank you! 😃
Not that I like seeing you have fails in the garden, but now I don’t feel so bad when I plant the same plant just several feet away from each other and one does beautifully and the other dies. Thank you Laura for all your encouragement!
So glad you planted these. We were looking for hydrangeas to plant, and my boyfriend wants red ones. Saw this one and can't wait to be able to get it next year. Did buy the Fire Light paniculata. Can't wait to see this blossom for you. That hedge is going to be beautiful. I have learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you for all you do.
Wow…..Little Lime Punch!!!!!! I cannot wait to be able to plant one of these in my garden next year. High pH definitely makes iron unavailable to the roots of hydrangeas….that’s why hydrangeas prefer a slightly acidic soil so that they could absorb Fe (iron). Chelated iron and Iron tone are soluble in water so continuous applications is necessary. Hopefully these new LL Punch hydrangeas will be able to thrive there….would love to see how they bloom and their colour change. 🪴💚🙏
Huh? Is this a scam??
Imagine waking up and having a cup of coffee just walking around this property.
I would happily pay money to do that...
Sounds heavenly
Goals!
Right??!!!!!!!💕
IKR, I can totally vaca there its gorgeous!
I love those panicle hydrangeas, hardy, beautiful and easy to take care of them, got bobo, pinky winky, have an old and well established lime light, it’s really great every year. Recommend to everyone 😁
Thank you for sharing that even you have gardening struggles. Always appreciate all that you share and wish you luck in all of your solutions for a beautiful garden
You’ve so much tolerance for amending the soil. I amended acidic soil for 7 years and that was always in the back of my mind as a make or break situation for most of my garden & I did it because I love to garden - “the things we do”💗
Understanding that all gardeners deal with failure and that it's okay to remove a plant that isn't working out is one of the best lessons that I've learned from your videos. Gardening became easier and happier once I learned this lesson.
i lost a bunch of plants over a dry early spring with personal issues distracting me from plant care, seeing you move forward to replace with new, different, and better suited plants is encouraging to see. It reminds me it's ok that some plants literally just dont work out
You are the Martha Stewart of gardening, and I love every minute of it.
I’ve seen several comments about saving the limelight’s. My budget too would make me set up a hydrangea ER but that’s why I enjoy this channel so much. If I could, I would DEFINITELY pull and replace declining plants.
How is your "I dont really like red in my garden" going to handle this? Glad your stepping out of your boundaries a little here! I think this will be so pretty, can't wait to see them grow in! Hope they do better for you than the last ones did. Goes to show you, we all deal with issues in our gardens. You are so inspiring!
Ha..I thought the same. Possibly, Laura is expanding her color pallet in her garden.. they are beautiful & possibly at full color change it will be closer to season change going into fall..??
I thought the same. I hope the color will grow on her because that will be a massive area of red.🌺
Oh, but it's a pinky sort of red. 🤣
I think it is more a dark pink as opposed to a true red. But we did see red in pots earlier in the spring.
Meh. I think that whole aversion (in many cases, not all) is some throwback to the Victorian era when women were shamed for embracing anything red. "The Scarlet Letter," Alice in Wonderland," the prohibition against (a woman) wearing red at a wedding/funeral. It's probably all rooted in shaming menstruation.
Or maybe she just doesn't like the color...but only on flower blooms? It's an odd, so specific aversion she has. She'll plant red Japanese maples, coleus, caladiums and grow red amyrillis and display red poinsettias...
I don't get it. I don't think she does either. It was probably drilled into her as a kid and she never really questioned it.
I can't wait for the update on these!! I have macrophylla hydrangeas that I'm going to give one more season and if they are a bummer again then bye bye they go. These would be a perfect replacement!
Beautiful! Cannot wait to see the Hawaiian Punch hydrangeas bloom forth!!
Wow I just love the maroon hydrangeas. 💕
What a coincidence, I just watched the older video yesterday where Laura planted the Limetta’s and thought to myself wonder where those went! I treated a few plants for iron deficiency this year and I would never have known if I hadn’t taken Garden Answer “classes” ! Thank you Aaron and Laura!
Thanks for sharing this, Laura! Too many times I won’t even try a new plant or bed because I think it won’t even work. I’m getting better at digging things up and moving things around. I remember crying the first few times my plants died on me. It shook me so badly that I gave up on flowerbeds for a few years.
It’s always amazing how close you plant to huge trees. How were you able to dig a hole large enough for the hydrangeas that close to the tree? And doesn’t that make it harder for the hydrangea to get established?
I always run into tree roots, hence I keep a cordless reciprocating saw among my gardening tools.
Since she was replacing shrubs she probably dealt with the tree problem back when the originals were planted.
@ Anita Hadley. I wouldn't text to that comment with the mobile number. It seems unrealistic that they would give their number out. I reported it to Garden Answer. We will see what comes of it. If it is legit, I will surely let you know.
@@cathyl4622 yes, I saw that. Spam for sure.
Hydrangeas are sooooo worth it! I need this one in my life!
I can't wait to get some of those little lime punch hydrangeas
Laura I live my life vicariously through you!🤣 I live on the Texas gulf coast where it is nothing but Hot and the humidity is crazy so very few things work here... you are a breathe of fresh air!
How beautiful Laura, I wanted to do a project like that in the back of my garage. Now I have to wait a year until they come out. Lol my husband thanks you! 😉
I really really want the the little lime punch ❤️❤️❤️
So here we go! Like magic. Wouldn’t that be great! You are so inspiring Laura.
Love them. Because of you I planted 4 Quick Fire in my front flower bed. Exciting to see how they do. I think it’s time for a garden tour of your other gardens. PLEASE PLEASE.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Good morning... butIts afternoon in South Africa 🌍
Good morning mdm ❤️🌱
Yup, the deer grazing comment hit home. I just planted my very first Hydrangea this week. It was in the ground for 2 days, woke up and it had been mowed down by the deer. Lesson learned, wrapping next year with some kind of wire. Hope it comes back next year, a very spendy lesson.
I love your garden. Have a nice day.
Hey Laura, thank you so much for this video, your Informational was exactly what I need for my hydrangea problem. You are so Awesome. 🪴😊
Just 2 days out of unexpected emergent surgery…. What a pleasure to have Garden Answer videos to rewatch to keep my mind off pain and keep me entertained 🤍
Would love to see a TH-cam, Instagram, or FB update on your sweet pea trellis and flowers! Are they done for the season? I’m so intrigued but don’t have a place for sweet peas yet!
@@clearvaluetax2949 and you think you’re fooling who, exactly?
It looks beautiful and I love hydrangea. There are so many variables in a garden.This year I noticed such a difference with early extreme heat waves and many seedling plants didn't make it.
Very encouraging!!! I have a corner where I have a hydrangea, a gardenia, and a few others that are struggling and it’s like my Camelia is a delineator in the yard everything to one side of the camelia is thriving everything to the other side is struggling.
Am obsessed with this new variety of little limes!! 😍
What a beautiful property! I never realized Oregon has the weather you mention. Where do you get your water?🌻
The timing for this video could not be more perfect! I have 3 hydrangea bushes. Two have already succumbed to chlorosis and one is struggling despite being treated with iron tone multiple times. Could you go more in depth into what type of chelated iron you are using and how you are applying it? Thanks!
i love those color blooms! that's going to be so pretty!! and yes, thank you! you have encouraged me... it's hot, and this is when i see what works and what doesn't, so yeah, i have a few things that need to be moved and it IS discouraging... we put thought into what we plant and when it doesn't work, well, just yuck. lol... but yeah, i'm gonna get out there and start digging and moving and replanting and watching and hoping this next time i get it right! good luck to everyone going through it right now!! thanks for the video!!
Those are going to be sooo beautiful! I love hydrangeas and totally think they are worth all the effort! 😍
Good morning! 🌻🐝
Those plants will look so amazing! Thanks for showing that
I’m excited to see them bloom love this ❤️ however 47 people don’t 😂😂 seriously you 47 people what is wrong with you!! I’m truly baffled! Go play in the traffic! Laura is seriously an amazing gardener ❤️
Looking forward to seeing the little lime punch hydrangeas bloom. When you planted the ones next to the tree, did you have to dig up roots from the tree? Will the hydrangeas compete with the tree to get its nutrients? On a side note, I love watching your content. You inspire us all to be better gardeners. Thank you! 💕
The challenges of gardening! Sometimes things fail no matter our best efforts I have learned. Sorry your hydrangeas died, but I am loving these new Little Lime Punch Hydrangeas...as with several other panicle varieties I grow, adding this one is a must! Your hedge will be so gorgeous with the changing color all season, the neatness of the shrub and I leave the dried panicles on for Winter interest and use in arrangements! 😊💚
I love all your teaching and your sharing of knowledge
I love the process of finding the perfect spot for my plants. It's so satisfying to move something that is not doing well and then watch it thrive in a new location. I'm having trouble finding something that will do well on the north, northwest border around my house to line the sidewalk. The sun just fries so many things I plant. It's not deep enough for large shrubs, but I'd love some ground cover and flower/ small shrub combos that will do well there. Any suggestions?
I'm really excited to see these bloom in the Hawaiian Punch color.
I've had the same problem in some areas of my garden. It would be nice to see the addition of Chelated Iron.
I cant wait to receive my lime punch!!
You are fantastic! Thanks for being so real! 😊
They are stunning 😍 cannot wait for these to come out 🪴🌺🪴
Super excited to try that hydrangea next year! Along with the Italian Ice!
Those are going to look great!! I need to get my hands on some of those next year!!!
A tape measure? Lol Such a bummer to have to pull the hydrangeas out, but great opportunity to try something new. Question for you; what about trying IFA BOUNTIFUL EARTH HUMATE soil conditioner? It helps with so many issues in the soil and also neutralizing ph. We are in Utah zone 7a and we have used this for years in the soil and the lawn and have seen such improvements. Can't wait to see the beautiful color of the new hedge. Amazing color!
Can you please update us when they are in full bloom. Can't wait to see them in August or September maybe😉
It's going to be beautiful !!!my question is will this get to the 5 ft tall in your area?
So refreshing to see I’m not the only one with garden fail. So excited cause going back to your parents garden center today. Road trip to get Proven Winners 🌷✌️
I think these are next year’s plants.
I’m ready for a garden tour!!!!!
I remember you planting that Hydrangea hedge years ago and always wondered why it never grew at all, but of course every plant needs nutrients so it makes sense!!
If this was a sheep farm, it may help to do some research as to how the farm was laid out. That maple tree may be near where they kept salt licks or did some alkaline washing process. Just a suggestion.
I love hydrangeas for all these reasons.
Plant return and losing plants.. You have such a great attitude toward loss of plants! Can you give us an idea of % of plants we might loose or how to take care of them before we plant them so we can have them go into the ground in good shape. What % of plants does your parent's garden center loose?
Does anyone know if you can supplement with keylated iron and soil acidifier as a preventative for hydrangeas instead of using after you notice a problem occurring?
This may not be a feasible option, but I’ve seen fertilizer injectors that attach to your watering system. You can use water soluble fertilizers in them. I wasn’t sure if this could be an option for the iron or maybe any other fertilizers you use. This would save you a lot of time since you already have a drip system.
Laura I was so excited about the little lime punch until they said if you live in the south where the nights don’t get cool enough they won’t change colors but go to brown. I hope they are successful in your garden. They will be beautiful there.
H. arborescens is the species of the genus Hydrangea which is in the family of Hydrangeaceae. The name Little lime etc would be considered the variety. Just fyi :)
Ohhhh man I need this hydrangea In my life, fingers crossed we get it in the UK too. Hydrangea were more popular in 80s but are slowly getting a resurgence in popularity.
Question:
If you could choose just one hydrangea which would it be and why?
Coffee grounds are very acidic. Pour used grounds about 10 inches away from the stems around each plant. Keep on doing this and I guarantee the chlorosis problem will be fixed in a year, for the hydrangeas at least. We make 2-3 pots of coffee per day. That’s alot of free soil acidifier. As it rots into the ground, it will lower the ph.
Love watching what you do. I am no expert. I no longer have a garden but plante in containers on my balcony. Most of the plants in them have bean there for many years. I fead them regularily but think they are now pot bound. They are nearly inpossible to get out of the pot because of an overlapping rim. My plan is to try to saw the sides of the plants to remove them. Then remove most of the soil and replant them. Half of the containers were filled with lava gravel. Should I do this again
Could you amend the soil in that area or even dig some dirt out and plant in fresh potting mix?
Hello! Thanks for this video! Have you ever planted a hydrangea on a slope? Will it grow upwards, upright, after compensating for the slope? Or is it going to droop over down the incline and tip over if I don't assist it and growing upwards? It's not a huge incline. Maybe 35°
I live in zone 9a and avoid planting this time of year due to the heat. How do you keep new plants alive in your summer heat?
Lots of water. 🌝
you have like a huge tree there, do you have lots of roots, I have a slope with trees and shrubs and I can't get through these roots to plant anything 🙈
As much as I pay for proven winner plants, those half dead hydrangeas would’ve went into a planter to try to save. Reminder: She has a small child and a new baby and this huge Reno project. I’m sure she’s probably thinking, “Who has time to rescue these dying plants when I need a rescue myself! :) Nice new hedge. Looking forward to the maturing.
Will you have to continue to treat them over the years?
How do you get your lambs ear to look so good? Mine always has some dead/brown leaves.
Laura, so you moved your hosta. This has got me thinking about my Hosta that has exploded this season. Is it possible to divide my overgrown hosta that is growing into my lilac shrub or is it best to relocate the whole plant? Thanks for this very timely video.
Hostas actually need to be divided periodically.
Good morning! I love your channel, you do such an amazing job and have helped my garden immensely, thank you! I was wondering what product you are using to provide the immediate dose of iron to the plant. I am dealing with a nutrient deficiency with my hydrangeas and I have IronTone and soil acidifier but a couple of my newly planted hydrangeas could use some immediate help as well. Thank you!!
I have some nice hedges at the back of the garden
Are you going to try save some of the hydrangeas you took out of the ground? Or are they beyond saving?
How do you get them planted so close to the tree? I could barely dig deep enough to put coleus in the ground around a tree.
They are gonna be so pretty in that row!!! Can't wait to see them bloom !!
Will you be able to save the Limettas? Your other Hydrangeas look awesome
Great video
My hydrangea is drooping all the time. Its also in sun all day. Can I move plant to shaded area. Also plant is now budding, please help. Thanks love your videos
What chelated iron did you use on your hydrangea?
I planted a hydrangea last spring. It's doing quite well. I protected it from freezing and babied it.
I planted a P.W. hydrangea this late spring and it's turning brown and yellow. They are 8 feet apart with a rose of Sharon in between. Speaking of r.o.s. l planted 6 and 3 took.....
I also planted a purple salvia. It was okay, now it's getting wierd...🤔
Very strange.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Supertunia’s, especially the Vistas! I live in New Orleans, LA(zone 9). Can I plant them at the end of the summer/beginning of Fall for the Fall season? Do you think they would thrive or even just do ok? I’m thinking of planting PW 4 inch pots in my garden around Sept and have them go through the fall until December ish. Do you think I can do this in the fall and have it actually work? I don’t know much about Supertunia’s. I’ve only used them in the spring/summer time. Also, will PW even have them for sale around the fall time?
How long does it take for the chlorosis to show up? We were told 4 years ago our ruby slipper maple is at risk of it but it has held on to the beautiful green.
Back to my coffee.
