I'm new and still leaning so please don't laugh. If I grow from seeds in those little cups do I need to add drain holes or should I just water with a spray bottle?

Hi Patrina! Thank you so much for joining me. 🤗🤗 Ohhhh, 3 bird baths, nice! The birdies must love you.💕 It seems like every time I go out back to make a video, the airplanes, the dogs, and the fire trucks want to join my video as well!😅

Hi Mel! New to the channel 😊 I have three bird baths. Two in my backyard and one in the front. I just love seeing the birds in them. I also have hummingbird feeders as well. Now they are my favorite. Sound like lil helicopters flying by lol

Do you mulch it if it snows heavy ?

@growlikemel Ай бұрын

Hi, Kay, I mulch to help keep the weeds down because they are so strong, ugh. Leaf mulching is great to help provide your soil with nutrients.

@kaybeauty2134 Ай бұрын

I had some a few times & I feel like they never lasted for me I guess I have to just learn more about them but I feel like their to delicate even though their one of my favorites

@growlikemel Ай бұрын

You’re right, they don’t last long at all. But when they are in bloom, they are a beautiful sight! You can shop for ones the bloom early mid and late spring. That way, you’ll have tulips for almost the entire season!🌷🌷🌷

That’s funny I have the mini red knock out roses & then I also have 2 hydrangeas & I just got 2 sun come flowers in pink def have similar taste

No😢 sadly, I had a really bad battle with bugs attacking it and fungal disease. She didn’t grow any peaches this year. It was time for her to go.

Now I’ve never seen the foot method only them pushing down with their hands idk why I would be scared to tear it & definitely will be putting mines in the ground for the fall now my only thing is when the snow come in I guess just cut them back down but I think depending on the kind they said u can leave the leaves

@growlikemel Ай бұрын

Hello! 😊 You can absolutely use your foot to gently firm in the soil around your plant. Limelight’s are panicle hydrangeas which means you can cut the back winter/spring before their next bloom cycle. I hope that helps!🌸🌸🤗

yes, I’m 68 yrs old & have always used my foot, like my mother before me😊 I am envious of your soil. I live in Clay County MO and have total clay soil….

I NEED A Limelight lol, I've wanted one all year but it looks like maybe next Spring for me , they are so beautiful. They get to 8 or 9 feet right? How far from the fence did you plant?

Yes!! You need it, they are by far the best. No trouble with pest and bloom reliably each year!💕
