[@gennysanchez8200]

My friends in NYC would love these.

A great well produced film thanks again for the advice Craig

[@irismoles9369]

Thanks Craig

[@DanH282]

Having followed you for a few years now, it's no surprise that I have most of these plants in my garden! Still seeking more evergreen climbers though!

[@GrowParadise]

Hmmmm, I can recommend Lonicera henryii, it's a great evergreen honeysuckle. Clematis armandii is also a good jungle foliage evergreen clematis that is pretty vigorous :D

Great job

[@stevenwoltering7000]

Thanks for the video. I am always concerned about the lack of longevity on euphorbia. How long have you had yours? (we get down to low teens regularly so prob not an option for me anyway)

[@juliejenkins4743]

I’ve purchased a few plants that are to attract hummingbirds. I just happen to have bamboo planted, and I have lots of ferns hanging on my porch so to go with the tropical plants that includes all the hummingbird plants for the tropical look..

Thanks Craig l just got one of loquat tree at wisley last week . Also l have 5 types of fatsia love the ice crystal got this week from a garden centre in the new forest.

[@GrowParadise]

Loquat trees are fantastic, I've got some amazing Fatsias coming to the nursery next year. They are such versatile plants! Thanks for watching.

That euphorbia looks just like edgworthia. Ever try one of those?

[@juliejenkins4743]

I have Fernleaf, and also golden goddess both clumping bamboo

[@garethjones7182]

Why is that Euphorbia 'John Phillips' so hard to get hold of? seems like a perfect plant. Had to settle for E. wulfii. Also.. Bohemeria macrophylla- do you over winter these or do you grow them as annuals? Great video as always Craig.

[@juliejenkins4743]

I’m in Madisonville Louisiana zone nine .. recently planted cape, honeysuckle red Shrub .. it needs support and lots of trimming they said, but if you know more tips about that particular plant, that would be greatly appreciated .. l

Loquats grow easily from seed. Got the fruit at Waitrose and planted the seeds. Doesn't grow so fast, but mine is in a pot.

[@GrowParadise]

Yes they do, I've actually been filming my journey of growing some from seed so keep an eye out for it in a future video :)

[@kaymgee08]

I look forward to that!@@GrowParadise

[@jennyhorner]

Our loquats are very slow to grow, definitely nothing like 5ft (1ft in 2 years ish). What is likely to be wrong? The plants around them are growing. We’re coastal, south Scotland

[@GrowParadise]

Mine are in very rich soil that was heavy clay when we moved in. I also always empty out old compost around the base of it so it gets constantly feed 👍

[@jennyhorner]

@@GrowParadise we have quite different soil - loamy/sandy and alkaline. But feed added regularly and seaweed in the winter, things like cordyline and gunnera are growing well nearby.

[@lemurian3102]

Are all these tolerant of full sun?

[@GrowParadise]

Most of them, but Fatsia will benefit from a bit more shade

[@janinewoodbridge3814]

I need help iv bought 2 plug plants and the leaves have curled up

[@catalinaharpalete7480]

fatsia polycarpa and fatsia camouflage died last winter... not sure how hardy it is

[@GrowParadise]

What temperature did your garden experience and how mature were your plants? As I say, mine sailed through -5°C but every garden and plant is different.

[@catalinaharpalete7480]

@@GrowParadise it was in Scotland about -10 for a few days.

[@RichardDavies-g3h]

Don't try the young loquat leaves they are full of cyanide tea is made from older leaves
