I like the columbines, i have 3 full bushes that bloom hard!

[@MunuruEswarao-wu2wf]

Super Good Plenty ❤❤❤❤ Nice

[@maureenmckenna5220]

I have tried to plant under a mature maple, 18 years old now, and it is nearly impossible to dig in the soil. Planted gifted pachysandra in large clumps by placing it on the ground and covering it with lots of soil, watering faithfully for an entire season. It grew beautifully. Did the same thing all around the tree whenever I wanted to put something in. Basically built berms and planted in the berms, adding great soil every year, knowing there was a mat of roots down below.

[@TheSybil47]

Thanks for a very good presentation.

[@gigimoore3738]

Hostas are also known as "deer salad". So if you live in a deer prone area, your hostas may be eaten.

[@curiouscat3384]

and they are not evergreen - leaving bare dirt in winter

[@annemurphy9339]

Voles love the roots too.

[@speedymcweeniemom8556]

“Deer salad” that made me laugh 😂 I’m in Colorado & I love mine but thankfully no deer in my area

[@gigimoore3738]

@@speedymcweeniemom8556 I guess it's a southern term because deer are around in wooded areas.

[@lovehandr]

@@curiouscat3384 I plant spring bulbs amongst my hostas so we have lots of colour before and as the hostas emerge. Also, Virginia bluebells are also wonderful to create spring colour but in places they like, Virginia bluebells will seed down. Virginia bluebells naturally go dormant in summer so perfect for hostas to replace them for the summer. In the dead of winter, it doesn't matter for us. Our winters are snowy.

[@userunknownx]

If you have a Black Walnut tree it become a bit tricky. Make sure you search walnut tolerant species before you plant. Hostas are a god send!

[@conniewojahn6445]

Nice, thank you!

[@lesliejackson149]

Thank you, thank You, thank YOU! YOU're the first video that mentioned the toxicity of plants. Pet owners SHOULD be aware. Please keep up this great work. My 5 must know, when investing in plants is: Sun or shade How big they'll grow Type of soil (drainage) Toxic to pets Attract bees, butterflies If your plants don't help pollinators... you might as well put plastic ones out imho lol. Happy planting!

[@heartofdixieprepping4797]

That's what my neighbor does😂 I try not to look at them when passing by. 😅

[@ajb.822]

Yes, but there's more to the pollinator world than the commonly thought of ones ( for example some wasps are) and I'm sure there's lots "we" don't know, or isn't at all common knowledge anyways, too. About how seemingly unhelpful plants, help the ecosystem. So, I wouldn't nix a plant solely on that, myself !!! For me, if not a food producer for me or my animals, but it has beautiful flowers or foliage or scent, I may still really want it and if it helps my morale, and I have more energy to continue to work on my Permaculture yard and regenerative, no-till, polyculture garden... then it probably indirectly definitely helps the pollinators ;) !

[@greenspiritarts]

Bloodroot information is inaccurate in this video, sorry. Bloodroot blooms only once in the early spring and the blooms last between 4 and 7 days, if you are lucky. The foliage is very nice and lasts well all summer. Self-seeds well. Not easy to transplant unless done in early spring right after blooming and once the temps are stable.

[@heathersmith6416]

Ours bloom in April and continue for almost a month. They are still in bloom

[@greenspiritarts]

@@heathersmith6416 Wow! I wish ours lasted like that! I have a lot of bloodroot that I have brought from the forest to my gardens because I love the flowers and the foliage and because I have so much shade. I envy you that your blossoms last so long! What growing zone are your? Maybe that is the difference. I’m in zone 4. Thanks for the good news that Bloodroot can bloom so long!

[@ajb.822]

@@heathersmith6416 I'm also curious if yours is wild or a cultivar ( if there are any such, idk ).. ? That also could be the difference. Or north or south facing or just how shady, in a very low spot ( colder at nights in spring) or higher up... I have no idea if these affect it's flowering time, just spitballing other climate difference there could be between plots. I always saw it in the wooded areas of our dry-cow/heifer pasture, most of which were not down in the bottomland, but across the hills and ravines.

[@Inactive2818]

very good video

[@catchygarden7378]

Thanks for the visit

[@Sense2024]

Azaleas like acidic soil and they’re high maintenance

[@sangeetaroy400]

Very informative. how about Astilbe and Impatiens, are they good under tree plants?

[@userunknownx]

Astilbe even grows under black walnut trees!!!

[@mountaincraftsstudio]

I don't think the person narrating has ever worked with plants given they cannot pronounce most of them.

[@speedymcweeniemom8556]

I’m not a tech person but I’m quite certain it’s narrated by AI, or computer generated narration, however it’s called, but not a real person, it’s not a new thing tho

[@robertdavis2017]

Yea, I was thinking the same thing.

[@nancycoates4582]

If the info is good, I don’t care who narrates it.

[@seriouslyreally5413]

sedum is "SEE-dumb" not SEE- doom.

[@wiesbadengera1]

lol

[@bbn10ec]

Computer generated voice!

[@CyclingDad]

I swear it’s the same voice as the ring cameras.

[@davefun1]

seeing as no one figured out this was narrated by a text to speech computer, I thought the pronunciation was decent for a computer.

[@robertdavis2017]

No, I did not figure that out.

[@brianw1620]

"She" pronounced a lot of the plant names strangely. Like "hydrangeas." I didn't particularly like this aspect and skipped most of the video because of it.

[@bjspeck4337]

Cyclamens work well for me as does oxalis.

[@khaderach19]

haha, they Hydrangeas. Sounds just like that meme of "I was Josh Safdi's muse when he wrote 'Uncut Gems."

[@mikeob7258]

What would be a good shrub for almost no direct sun. I have a north facing house in central florida, and the front yard (about 4' out from the house) never has direct sun due to the overhang of the roof.

[@OlysZoo]

Sunshine Illisium. Highly Recommend for zones 4 thru 9. Chartreuse/ yellow coloring brightens up the shade. Does not grow huge and can be trimmed to shape.

[@TheSybil47]

@@OlysZoo Thanks for the tips. The Chartreuse really looks great.

[@TheSybil47]

@@deborahpugh7120 Thanks for the tips. The Mojo Pittosporum looks like something I want to try.

[@CrisTina-tp2jg]

What’s with the music in the background? I find it hard to concentrate on what you’re saying with the distracting noise. Never have I been to any educational talk where there music in the background while the person is talking. Perhaps you may want to reconsider your presentation style.

[@dorianmorton67]

Terrible pronunciation here.

[@catchygarden7378]

We are sorry, we will fix it 🙏

[@monicamestas7566]

You are no gardener. If you were, you'd know the proper pronunciation of the plants you are recommending!!!

[@nanaman]

😂🤣🤣

[@InTeamFunwetrust]

OK thats great but I dont have much well drained loamy soil, what can I grow in 24 hours of shade in a musty moist clay pit?

[@garywesthoven1745]

Vinca minor and English Ivy both tolerate the shade and dry. Ivy can cover an area over very dry because it’s a vine. Can take over too but you can’t have everything, I guess.

[@curiouscat3384]

@@garywesthoven1745 I'd choose vinca over ivy. I have loads of both. Ivy is a tough, messy vine and must be trained as it grows to it's potential 30 ft-ish. Good for English garden walls and fences but not healthy on a tree. Vinca produces many trailing stems that drape over each other on the ground, creating a nice thick mound about 6-12" high. It does not climb trees in my experience. If confined to a small space you just need to edge it once or twice a year.

[@user-fs6ou3fk9p]

Poor choice in ads, Captain Crunch? Please reconsider.

[@donutdomination139]

They don’t get to choose what ads are shown.

[@patriciacompton7721]

Wow spend sometime learning to pronounce the names properly. Hydrangeas grow like weeds in zone 9.

[@bartwatts1921]

It’s a computer generated voice.

[@patrickdoorly]

Agree sounds like an AI diatribe..informative nonetheless!
