Just watched this video again. Romneya Coulteri is also known in California as Matilija (mateeyaha)Poppy. My most favorite after wisteria and jacaranda in California. Thanks for pointing out the flowers in this wonderful wild garden. Thank you for all you do for horticulture, and Matthew, were you in a hurry to get dressed for this video?🤓😉☺

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Have you ever thought of doing a series on the plants of North America? That would be so wonderful for us North Americans. Canadians, Mexicans and USA! We do grow many, many Australian plants here.🤠Love you guys💞

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Maybe one day! We just need somewhere with a good collection here unless you want to fly us over! Regards Stephen

Huge garden. Envious. Much 😆😍💚💚💚

[@thehorti-culturalists]

It's even larger than it seems as we didn't visit huge bits of it. Regards Stephen

[@HeathcroftExoticGarden]

Very interesting. Thanks

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Thanks for watching!

New subscribers here. Hello from Virginia 🇺🇸. I have a big cutting garden it takes me so much work. I can’t imagine how much work that place takes 😮.

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Well interestingly....it is just largely left to it's own devices! Lawn mowing and hedge trimming mostly. It is a huge place and just the two of them with no help - it's own magic world!

[@katrinkatterman3069]

Another fantastic video! I love your unusual plant videos but am always delighted when they have plants native to my area! Southern Oregon has lots of amazing plants, probably due to the serpentine soils. I love the streamside monkey flowers - I’ve got a bunch of the red ones in my garden as well!

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Thanks for watching - there's probably a lot of climatic similarities too which help these plants from your area thrive on Ruth & Barry's place!

[@lizkuisma238]

Love, love, love this amazing garden.

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Me too! Regards Stephen

I loved seeing all of my Oregon native. Thanks for giving me some more ideas.

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Our pleasure! Regards Stephen

We have a Chiranthodendron pentadactylon in our garden in Melbourne . It flowers very well . The tree is around 5 m tall. It was great to meet Matthew last Sunday at the orchid sale in Forest Hill

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Nice to know there are a few of them around as it’s a fabulous tree. I hope Matthew didn’t buy them all! Regards Stephen

Every time you say "we will answer your questions in our Monday shorts" I get a giggle because I picture you in your underwear, emblazoned with the word Monday answering our horticultural questions. 🤣

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Now there is an idea that might make our videos go viral! Regards Stephen

[@N.J.Leonard-mf1zx]

Hello. I’m from the southern Appalachian mountains in North Carolina, United States. A few weeks ago, you had a black tower elderberry on the show. If multiple plants were planted close together, kept tidy, and perhaps tied in together, would that make a good formal hedge? Thank you.

[@thehorti-culturalists]

I doubt it would ever make a particularly formal hedge but a slightly rough and ready one. Regards Stephen

[@katrinkatterman3069]

lol, and manzanita as well! ❤

[@thehorti-culturalists]

Which is hardly known here in Australia. Regards Stephen

[@Aculturalsavagefromaustralia]

But in the picture, it is six fingers😂

Pedant! Regards Stephen
