My trumpet vine is planted in full sun but doesn’t flower
@gardeninginmyyard7 күн бұрын
Why Your Trumpet Vine Might Not Be Flowering Even though your trumpet vine is planted in full sun, there could be a few reasons why it's not blooming. 1. Immaturity: Trumpet vines can take several years to mature before they start flowering. If your vine is relatively new, patience is key. 2. Over-Fertilization: Too much fertilizer, especially nitrogen-rich ones, can promote leaf growth but hinder flowering. Try reducing the amount of fertilizer you apply. 3. Incorrect Pruning: Trumpet vines flower on new growth. Pruning too late in the season can remove potential flower buds. Consider pruning in early spring to encourage new growth. 4. Pest or Disease Issues: While less common, pests or diseases can affect a vine's ability to bloom. Inspect your vine for signs of damage or unusual growth. 5. Soil Conditions: While trumpet vines are adaptable, extreme soil conditions can impact flowering. Ensure your soil is well-draining and not overly compacted. If you've ruled out these possibilities and your vine is still not blooming, it might be helpful to consult a local gardening expert or agricultural extension service. They can offer more specific advice based on your local climate and conditions. Would you like to provide more details about your trumpet vine, such as its age, soil type, and any recent care practices?

I have thousands of hibiscus seeds that I’ve been slowly been shaking out of the pods. I’ve recently noticed though that there are tiny black bugs also in with the seeds 😮😮. Is there a way to clean off the seeds with water, but yet not cause them to sprout or go bad??
@gardeninginmyyard11 күн бұрын
Cleaning Hibiscus Seeds without Sprouting Here's a method to clean hibiscus seeds without encouraging premature germination: Separate Seeds from Pods: Ensure all the seeds are removed from their pods. Use a Fine-Mesh Sieve: Place the seeds and bugs in a fine-mesh sieve. Rinse with Gentle Water: Gently rinse the seeds under running water. The bugs should wash away. Pat Dry: Place the rinsed seeds on a paper towel and pat them dry. Avoid rubbing vigorously, as this can damage the seed coat. Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Store the cleaned seeds in a small zip-top bag or airtight container in a cool, dry location. This will help prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mold or premature germination. Additional Tips: Avoid Soaking: Prolonged soaking can cause seeds to swell and become damaged. Check for Pests: Inspect the seeds regularly for any remaining pests or signs of mold. Consider a Seed Cleaner: If you have a large quantity of seeds, a commercial seed cleaner might be a more efficient option. By following these steps, you should be able to effectively clean your hibiscus seeds without compromising their viability.

I like your idea about moving your hostas and putting them in a row. My husband put lots of brown chips out front. They were so deep that they killed all of the huecher and the hens and chickens. My hostas did not germinate very well.
@gardeninginmyyard20 күн бұрын
It sounds like you might have a mulch problem. Overly deep mulch can suffocate plants by blocking oxygen from reaching their roots. This can cause browning, root rot, and even death. Here are some tips to avoid this issue: Mulch depth: A general rule of thumb is to apply mulch 2-4 inches deep. Avoid piling it too thick. Mulch type: Use organic mulches like wood chips, leaves, or straw. Avoid inorganic materials like rocks or plastic, which can hinder water absorption. Space around plants: Make sure to leave some space around the base of plants for air circulation. Check for pests: Sometimes, excessive mulch can attract pests like voles or mice, which can damage plants. If you've already removed the deep mulch, you can try the following: Aerate the soil: Use a garden fork or tiller to loosen the soil and improve aeration. Replant: If the plants are beyond repair, you can replant them with new, healthy specimens. Amend the soil: Add compost or other organic matter to improve soil fertility and drainage.

I enjoyed your garden. You say you are in zone 5. I am in zone 6b, but you have many plants that I can’t grow here. I thought I was a little warmer. I’m confused.
@gardeninginmyyard20 күн бұрын
You're absolutely right! There can be a bit of variation within a hardiness zone, especially between the beginning and end of the zone. While you're in zone 6b, you might experience slightly colder temperatures than some areas in zone 6a. This can affect the specific plants that thrive in your garden. Some plants that are hardy in zone 6a might not survive the harsher winters in zone 6b. Here are a few tips to help you choose plants that are suitable for your specific microclimate: Check local gardening resources: Look for gardening groups, nurseries, or online resources that cater to your specific region. They can provide tailored advice based on the local climate. Consider microclimates within your garden: Factors like slope, soil type, and proximity to buildings or trees can influence the local climate. Start with plants known to be hardy in zone 6b: Choose plants that are specifically labeled for your hardiness zone. Experiment and observe: Try planting a variety of plants to see what thrives in your garden. Some plants may surprise you!

You call your large flowering plant a hibiscus. Is it the same as a Rose of Sharon? Our neighbors have several roses of Sharon and the blooms look the same but they seed into our yard and the leaves look different than yours. They are like weeds because they grow like crazy under our peach tree. They are very hard to pull out. The limbs are so tall and long. I love your Bruneria.
@gardeninginmyyard20 күн бұрын
Yes, a Rose of Sharon is a type of hibiscus. While the term "hibiscus" can refer to a variety of flowering plants in the genus Hibiscus, the Rose of Sharon (scientific name: Hibiscus syriacus) is a specific species within that genus.

@gardeninginmyyardАй бұрын
Absolutely! Hibiscus leaves, or more commonly, hibiscus flowers, are a popular ingredient for making tea. They offer a tangy, slightly fruity flavor with a beautiful deep red color. 1 tablespoon dried hibiscus flowers 1 cup boiling water Sweetener to taste (honey, sugar, or stevia) Place the hibiscus flowers in a teapot or mug. Pour boiling water over them. Let it brew: Cover and let steep for 5-7 minutes, or until the desired strength is reached. Strain: Strain the tea into a cup. Sweeten: Add sweetener to taste. Enjoy: Serve hot or chilled. For a more intense flavor, use a higher ratio of hibiscus flowers to water.

Rose Hardiness Zones Roses are remarkably adaptable plants that can thrive in a wide range of climates. While some varieties are more suited to specific conditions, there are roses for almost every hardiness zone. General Rose Hardiness Zones 5, 6, 7, and 8: These are considered ideal for most roses. A variety of roses can flourish here with minimal care. Zones 9, 10, and 11: While these zones are hotter, many hardy and disease-resistant roses can still thrive. Proper watering and sunlight are crucial. Zones 3 and 4: These colder zones present a challenge, but certain hardy rose varieties can survive with careful winter protection. Factors Affecting Rose Hardiness Rose Variety: Different rose types have varying levels of hardiness. Microclimate: Local conditions like wind, soil, and sunlight can influence a rose's ability to survive. Winter Protection: Proper care during winter can extend the range of roses suitable for a particular zone. Finding the Right Rose for Your Zone To ensure the best chance of success, consider the following: Check the USDA Hardiness Zone Map: This will give you a general idea of your climate. Research Rose Varieties: Look for specific information about a rose's hardiness zone. Consult Local Garden Centers: They can provide advice based on your specific location. planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/

@@gardeninginmyyard True!! It is hard to find zone 4 specifically. Two roses that died were "City of Windsor" and a shrub rose "Ringo Star", they did great during the summer, buds appeared on both and then a frost set in one late April evening and they both died.😵💫 I spent $40 on the hybrid tea rose and got my Ringo Star on sale for $20 That's a lot for me to lose on 2 perennials, if you catch my drift.
@gardeninginmyyardАй бұрын
Roses, like many other plants, struggle to survive the harsh conditions of winter. Here are the primary reasons: Freezing Temperatures: The most obvious culprit. When temperatures plummet, the water inside the rose's cells can freeze and expand, causing the cells to rupture. This damage can be fatal to the plant. Desiccation: Winter winds can dry out rose bushes, especially if the ground is frozen and unable to replenish the plant's moisture. Exposure: Roses that are not properly protected from winter elements like harsh winds, ice, and snow can suffer damage to their canes and buds. Disease and Pests: While less common in winter, diseases and pests can weaken a rose bush, making it more susceptible to winter damage. I actually trim mine to a foot above the ground and cover with wood chips in a little pile and in the early spring just before things start growing gradually uncover it by brushing the wood chips around it. I also try to water and fertilize through out the growing season.

@gardeninginmyyardАй бұрын
I think they have to planted in the soil to come back. They are tender annuals. An annual is a plant that lives its entire lifespan in one growing season. Tender means it can not survive frost or freezing temperatures. So the same plant does not come back but drops seeds every where. So it has to drop quite a few seeds to grow new seedings the following growing season. My best suggestion would be to give it plenty of water and some fertilizer. good luck. Humming birds love morning glories.
