Since I was a novice at videotaping, I was nervous and made a few mistakes when naming a few plants - I often called heucheras - hellebore, and said yew, when I meant hemlock.

I am familiar with all the plants mentioned. All will be fine to zone 4, except Japanese forest grass (hakanakoe) might struggle a bit until established. Begonias, coleus, elephant ear, are annuals this far north. This garden is sure an investment in planning, labor, patience, and money. The gardener seems pleased and proud. Good rewards for a job well done.

How far from the neighbour's fence should one plant a hydrangea so as not to be so close as to force the neighbour to cut it back unnaturally hard to prevent it from encroaching on their path?
@marygarlough15894 жыл бұрын
really depends on the variety of hydrangea - and I would also talk to the neighbor and see if they would actually like the blooms on their path or would feel the need to prune it. Some grow a lot larger than others - the fence would also help keep the branches and blooms on your property rather than theirs. Might be an issue if it's on their walking path - if not a walking path, they might not mind at all.

Hi - So sorry for the late reply. The irrigation system was here when we moved into the house. I really don't love it - a drip system would be so much better.

@marygarlough15893 жыл бұрын
Hi - I am southeast Michigan - between zone 5 and 6. The hydrangea gets dappled sun in the afternoon but never for long direct periods of time. It's not a mop head though - it's a flat lace cap. I think mop heads are very unreliable in our zones and depending upon late freezes in the Spring, they don't bloom. I've replaced all my Endless Summer and mop head varieties with Annabelles, Quick Fires,Limelight , Oakleaf, and my new favorite - Bobos. But if you want that hot pink and purple color, then I guess you need to stick with the mop head variety. I just got frustrated with how much space they took up and how unreliable they were in blooming.
