Zone 6 here 😊. My daughter bought too many bulbs and we have not been able to get them all in the ground. It is now mid November in zone six. Should I plant the bulbs in containers, water them and leave them in my garage?

Saving seeds saves money, friends!

I miss you ladies. Please come back </3

Thanks !

P.s I like it

Hey Pam & Wendy try crocus sativus petal tea 🍵it's good 👍😋

How do you get your Purple Prince to actually be purple though? Mine are the palest of purple, with white-ish violet tips. It is my first year growing them though. Could it be that the bulbs haven't had time to settle or naturalize, and that they will become more colourful as time passes?

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!

I am doing the unconventional thing. I planted crocus, iris reticulata, small daffodils, snowdrops, and grape hyacinth in the lawn in a heart within a heart design. The larger heart will be the early bulbs. The later bulbs form the inner heart. It will fill in over the years, undoing that shape. That's alright. I just wanted to start out with a cute Valentine shape.

What a nice cozy chat. Question? Can I cover my potted spring bulbs with clear plastic in Zone 8. (Victoria. BC)

The deer love my hibiscus. After 3 years I relocated my plant to a safer area. I finally got to see the beautiful blooms.

Very helpful thanks

Beautiful arrangement.

Bot-anus. Robot butts. Nice.

Also, I think I've got one of the purple shamrocks tubers planted upside down do this doesnt matter then? All the rest of the 13 tubers that I got in the mail they all had the plant starting to sprout out so it was easy to figure out which way to stick them in the dirt but there was one that had no distinct anything to let me know which way it was supposed to go down in besides a tiny bit of root hair at the one end so I put that down.

Can you help me with my iron cross oxalis bulbs? Do I plant the bulbs pointy side up or pointy side down? From what I can glimpse in a few photos, it goes pointy sides up but I want to be sure.

I have a question! So my partner and I moved into a house last August, and there are crocuses on the property -- but they seem to be seasonally confused. We had a few come up in the fall, but a couple also came up in early February. The blooms look exactly the same. Do you think the owners planted both fall and spring crocuses? Or can one species come up at different times. They seem to have made a lot of crocus babies which aren't large enough yet to flower, and I'd like to divide & propagate them but I'm worried I'll choose the wrong season to do it! Any advice?

Where did u guys go? plants survived rona

You have been very helpful in helping me to know how to take care of my "New" Oxalis. I have the green one that I bought at the grocery store and everyone talks about the purple one. I'm glad to have found your video. Thanks again.

Hi Pam and Wendy. I was just wondering, can the bulbs be replanted in the ground in autumn after they bloom in spring in the pots? Do you have an episode showing how this is done? Hope to hear from you.

Hi I love your show. I want to know where I can order the plant or seed. Will it grow from seed?

Thank you for this information. I understand they like well drained soil but how often should I water them?

¿

Very nice information thanks

Thanks so much for the details, I am planning on planting Phlox Cream & Raspberry and wasn't sure how tall and you answered my questions really appreciate it! I think they are just beautiful flowers and you showed a few other gorgeous ones too! All the best from NY!

I'm new to BotanusTV...and came in search of recent videos to find this. I miss you already. This is a beautiful bouquet Elke!!! I love this unique arrangement and daisies are my favorite flower. Thanks for sharing!

I planted the oxalis deppei last summer... and they were so amazing and prolific! I planted 10 (bulbs..? risomes?) and I'm pretty sure I have 100 for next summer. Thanks for the great ideas for planting next summer. And your "Goldilocks" description for the indoor oxalis is a perfect description for watering them!

Such a relaxing channel! Great info too

I planted allium serendipity this summer. It came in a two gallon pot looking like ornamental grass. It’s in a sunny spot. Not even one flower came up. What should I do? Did I plant too shallow or are the bulbs too crowded? I can’t think of anything else.

Is that also the same as saffron crocus? What’s the difference?

Drainage, good drainage

I am in zone 3 first time I planted bulbs in the container and I put it in the shed hoping that it will not freeze . But I put some in the drawer or surround them with cloth. Hoping it will bloom next year..

I love lilies

I enjoy you sweet ladies so very much. Ty for all the info you share. Xoxo Dana from pa

Today planting my bulbs in a pot for the very first time. We downsides and here I am itchy for gardening with just a balcony (sunny, TG!) snd a small storage room. I have conditioned the storage to provide the freezing and yet protection g from fluctuations g deep cold. Thank you!! Girls you are simply awesome. Now I will go and dream of Soring bulbs blooming thanks to you two 💋💋✨💓👌

Mine are curly and there's alot of "pinching" like structure at the back of the leaf (I think this what makes the leaf curly). I try to find anything on google, youtube, instagram, but can't find it. Can you help me?

Do you ladies know if it's best to leave the Dutch iris bulbs in the ground as a perennial, I'm in zone 7a. Thanks!

I recommend deadheading the spent blossoms to keep the blossoms coming. 🌻

What beautiful work you all do. Thank you so very much for sharing your love about planting!

I love your channel and bought roses that are wonderful and I’m complemented all the time

just bought some today , thanks for the info

Very nice. Hope Elke will keep us entertained on her channel during the hiatus. Have a great summer!

I loved the arrangement also 😊😊🌸🌻

Want to thank you for all the wonderful information I have learned from your great videos. I always go back to your previous videos when I have questions on caring for my garden. Have a wonderful Summer

Loved watching you in your element Elke. Our 3 year old loved watching you create. She said woah mommy she made her own little forest! 💜 I was able to teach her there are artists that create art with living flowers and we call them florists. So thank you for doing this in depth one showing everything used to create an arrangement. I need a friend like Elke. Your friends are truly blessed that receive arrangements from you!

Mine are a shorter variety and double flower, mine are orange wish they would have been white. But they are pretty

I just planted, but I’m in Northern Alberta so we’ll see! I’m an eternal optimist and grow many things not for my zone.

We still have a lot to learn about garden designs and esthetic but we’re trying to keep things visually appealing while planting what we like. Our garden is ever evolving in that respect. Thank you.

I love the forest and its smells... My grandma's tiny village is up in the high Greek mountains, but I haven't been able to go there again since she was gone. I have the best (childhood) memories in that place... Thank you for bringing some of those back with this video ☺️ Phytoncides are volatile substances found in various plants, helping them to defend themselves against some viruses, insects and animals, not only in the forests, but the purest the environment, the more intense those subtle scents will be. Phytó(n), means plant in ancient and modern Greek, the suffix -cida comes from the Latin verb caedere (=kill, exterminate). Have a wonderful weekend, I hope spring has reached you, we're having our first heatwave, which is super rare this time, even for us!!
