Jenny I need to come see you at your nursery. Need some shade garden ferns. Your hay racks are gorgeous.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

We’d love to see you! This Fall would be a great time to come visit us and get the ferns and other great perennials, happy gardening!

[@tamigrider623]

Beautiful!!🦋🥀🌱

[@HangTran-nl2eb]

Love it thank you 🙏

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You’re so welcome!

[@katiekane5247]

I always use a few soil moist granules in hay racks, pre-hydrated. Really helps keep water from pouring through, especially when put at the very bottom.. I love hayracks, keeping them damp will be easier in the shade. They look great!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks so much!

[@jenniferidland8724]

I’ve binged watched your videos this week. Loving a southern gardener. Thanks for the videos. Jennifer from Greenville, Alabama

Had a great time and mulch was on sale.

[@nettiewiese6444]

What a beautiful shade garden!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you so much! It certainly is one of my favorite spots.

[@candiesmith4329]

“Disneyland gardener” 😂 Who doesn’t love Disney, but I don’t have a Disney budget but once every couple of years. So it puts me in the watch it grow category, which I love both. Great video.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

There’s a time & season for everything right? 😉. Happy gardening!

Thank you so much! Happy gardening!

[@NM-gy6tx]

You have the loveliest figure and clothes.. they're simple but stylish. I love that tshirt. Very youthful and cute ☺ ps, you 'might' need to get window stickers. We have planters and the birds dont see the window panes just the reflections of trees and plants - without the stickers (you can get pretty ones off Amazon) the birds sometimes strike the window. That tip is for all viewers to prevent bird deaths ☺x

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you so much! Can you believe that I found this shirt at a local craft store? Such a great find! Thanks for the tip on the windows & birds, thankfully in the 16 years we’ve lived here I’ve only had 1 or 2 birds to run into the windows. Happy gardening!

[@lynnthow1650]

I cant wait to watch how it grows. I know this is fun to plant something new. Go, Tigers!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

It was so fun! We will do a follow up video of this whole area very soon. Everything is so happy & lush ~ it is one of my most favorite spots in our gardens!

[@kelliejackson6633]

I love watching your videos. You have great information and usually crack me up at some point during the video. You have great on camera presence.😊 Please be sure to show us how they come along because I'm sure they're going to be beauties. Keep the videos coming.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

As thank you so much! I’m a hot mess and I know it, ha ha ha! We will do an update on the whole bed soon as it is exploding with color.

[@michelleh7133]

Looking forward to an update on the baskets and the whole shade garden!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

We will do one soon! Everything is exploding with their summer colors!

[@stacylesniewski2121]

Beautiful combinations!

I want to do this at my house, for my shade boxes. Beautiful! Love your videos! 🥰

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Do it! You won’t be disappointed - thank you for watching!

[@judymiddleswart9350]

Beautiful so love how u talk thru the process! From signal mt. Tn girl that nows lives in pensacola fl

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

So glad you found it helpful!

[@reneec9233]

Next year line the coco liner with landscape fabric. Helps retain the moisture! I did this on some of mine this year and it makes such a difference!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Great tip, thanks!

[@marywhitfield7553]

Gardening with Creekside pampers work fabulously in retaining and not necessitating constant watering. Just buy cheap ones or even pull ups.

[@vanandtammylong8969]

I planted the purple superbena and it is t a k I n g o v e r !!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Oh bless! Gotta love it when a plants super happy 😃

[@lauradaniel7596]

Yaa!! I believe that viewer was me. When I saw you putting up your window boxes, I was wondering if you always did this every year anyways. I have recently just found your channel so I wasn't sure what you had done in the past. I really believe you will love this new window box and the beautiful frame it will provide from the inside out. Happy growing!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

These were the best idea EVER!!! Thanks so much, and you’re right - I love the view looking inside out just as much!

[@laurenwellman2516]

Love it 😍 💖. Love Kinsman’s products. I did 2 smaller scale hay racks from Gardner’s Supply under the windows of our garden shed. They too are in mostly shade. I planted them over 2 weeks ago and watered them once and they are still wet. Maybe too wet. I put begonia, coleus, impatient, sweet potato vine and ivy. The leaves of the coleus are curling a little which makes me think they are too wet. They have the aqua-save coco fiber liners.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

If your soil is super wet then I would agree. I find that the water saving products are good for hot sunny locations but can often be too wet for deep shade areas. You might want to consider switching out your soil and replanting the boxes.

[@laurenwellman2516]

Gardening with Creekside I agree. When it rains, I think these baskets get the run-off from the roof of the shed. Like you said, it’s all a big experiment and nothing is perfect, but it’s fun.

[@jodieweiman89]

I cant wait to see these grow! ❤️

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

I know!!!! That’s one of the many things I love about gardening - watching the plants grow & thrive and seeing my vision become a reality (at least most of the time)!

[@judithjohnson2111]

I need hayracks. Need to find a couple. Wondering about that shorter fat one😳 hoping to find 1 like that. Beautiful.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Check out Kinsman Company. That’s where I got these!

[@tinacruz9162]

Love these will definitely look at the site, just a suggestion, put a block of wood behind the baskets to lift them from the siding, that way the draining water doesn't stain your siding, watching you from St. Joseph, MO, formerly Camden, SC.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Great tip, thanks!

[@spaciodecm]

Nice

[@posti4posti436]

Thank you so much for gardening tutorial. Hope you follow up with progress in later months. Curious if the hay racks create more drainage therefore require more watering? Thanks

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

So glad you enjoyed it! When they were first planted a few weeks ago I only had to water them once every 2-3 days but as it gets hotter & their roots get more extensive I will end up having to water them once a day. Next Spring we will explore putting them on some type of irrigation.

[@greenthumbelina7331]

W👀W!!! Those hayracks are massive! I love your plant combinations, they look great now but will be stunning once they fill out. Did you mention the name of the hayrack manufacturer? I would love to get a couple of the 30-inch half-round ones. I hope your family is having a wonderful vacation away from the retail side of your business. ~Margie

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

I KNOW!! It was like Christmas morning when I opened them up. I did mention that I got them from Kinsman Garden Supply. Here’s a link to their website. www.kinsmangarden.com/

[@greenthumbelina7331]

@@GardeningwithCreekside Thank you, Jenny, I appreciate that and I will check it out! ~Margie

[@amberturner5986]

Love the window boxes. You said these are shade plants but will get some morning sun. I am looking for plants and color for full shade. I want to do some containers on my back porch and it gets NO sun. I am finding ot hard to find flowers/plants with color. Thanks for any help or advice you could give.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Such a great question! I often find in my truly deep shade areas I have to use foliage plants to bring me lots of colors & textures. Hostas, ferns, brunnera, spikenard, astilbes, caladiums, etc will give you so much interest! Also, I would go to your local nursery & ask them for ideas on flowering annuals. I find that the impatiens do really well for me in shade.

[@jeuler7266]

Love your videos! I’m just below GSO, will PW caladiums overwinter if soil isn’t to damp?

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks so much! We are treating them as annuals in our zone 7 climate but customers are asking if they can try to save them for next year. It never hurts to try! They must be exposed to extreme cold & prolonged dampness or they will rot.

[@sallyrichardson4082]

I was wondering the same thing. I put caladiums in pots so it’s easier to put them up for winter. I’m near Greensboro too, and know we can’t always have a mild winter like the last one.

[@tanimasingh8903]

What types of Hostas planted in ground (in your back).. loved those

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Oh my gosh, there are tons of different kinds. Here’s a link to the video where I gave a garden tour of this bed kzbin.info/www/bejne/paKrfWqcp7B2nsU

[@shannonholmberg8835]

When doing a half round planter set it on top of a 5 gallon bucket and it will stay in place while you plant

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks! Normally I would agree but this one was a mammoth, 30” in length & 15” wide. Happy gardening!

[@patfennell1502]

I wish you would add a list of plants you use. Thanks

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks for your feedback, happy gardening!

[@brendaedwards7938]

I love window boxes but haven't been brave enough to try them. Jenny, where can I get the hay racks like yours???

[@michelleh7133]

She mentioned very early in the video where she got them. Sorry I can't remember.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

They are from Kinsman Garden Company, and you’ll love them!

[@singinprofessor5260]

Can’t get the names of flowers Please list💖

[@dadai9871]

U can get some ideas from garden answer all of her plant came from proven winners too.❤❤❤new sub here i accidentally found ur channel.

Yes Laura is great! She is a zone 5 in Oregon, and we are zone 7b in NC so it is nice to be able to offer information to people in different areas of the country.
