I always enjoy your future Trialing bulbs and plants for the next year.

Thanks for letting me know, that's so nice to hear.

I love cranberry double click cosmos. I find it driew / dies beautifully too. Your dahlia choices look great! I hope you get them.

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

That's exciting to hear, thanks for letting me know, and stay tuned on the dahlias🙂

What flowers are you trialling in 2024? New flowers for 2025 looks interesting. Thank your for the video Evelyn!

@@canadian-gardening-6A Oooops, fixed it, thanks for pointing that out because, no, that was not the title I wanted. It's now changed to 2025. Again, thanks.

It was my first year and i learned so much. Learned that i dont care for anemones, adore ranunculus, love diner plates dahlias, fallen out of love with with glads, had straw flowers all summer and fall in all colors and really liked those. Lisianthus are a pain and if i can get plugs i would grow them again but never again as seeds. Asters are something i was to try more because the one kind i tried was awesome. Sunflowers can actually be too much of a good thing, i had a 1000 of just one kind and got bored somewhere in the middle of july. Also everything got away from me in August..... We had so much rain ....every day, all month....inches more in my region then ever recorded before.

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

Why did you fall out of love with Glads? I hear you on the suns, I grew 5 types and got bored, too much yellow. I don't think we had any rain in August - which is unusual - but we sure made up for it the past month or so, intense rain storms one after the other and when it didn't rain - or even when it did - wind storms like never before. We broke the wind record just this past week when the bomb cyclone hit. But, again, why did you fall out of love with glads - I need to know.

[@YanickaQuilt]

@EvelynM-vlogs I ordered 500 different glads, planted them in 3 different batches (one every 4 weeks) and they got decimated by thrips, I barely got 10-15 flowers out of the 500, nothing else got affected. I've seen that putting them in a bath of water and Lysol could help but I am unsure if I want to try.

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

@@YanickaQuilt Ya, that doesn't sound like fun. I only got 12 blooms out of 80, but it was my first year so next year I am going to plant a few here and a few there, looking for a spot they hopefully love. Thrips is something I have never dealt with - and hope to never deal with either. I do purposefully nail my flowers with the hose spray as a successful deterrent to aphids so it might work the same for thrips - who knows.

The great benefit of daffodils is they procreate like bunnies. I bought some specifically for that purpose. I will sell the offspring.

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

Just like selling dahlia tubers. I grow only so many of each variety and the rest get sold in 4" pots as starters. That's a way better return than just the bare tubers which get sold on marketplace by every home gardener for dirt cheap. Unfortunately for me, although tulips come back year after year in my garden beds, daffodils don't for some reason. I have yet to figure out why. They do come back in their one gallon pots though. I think my soil in the winter is just far too wet and the pots are covered.
