Pansies in the Patio | Gardening with Creekside

[@geaizee9204]

You are not alone! "Oh I will go outside and be done with this job in 20 minutes." Two hours later I am about halfway done. I live in SW Virginia so same type of weather and it is an energy sapper.

[@mikearseneau6473]

Jenny your hubby is a keeper!! He is a lot like mine… you can see it in his face that he loves you so much. He has his own job but will not let you work so hard, always helping the wife. I just enjoy watching your videos. I wish they were daily but I understand your busy with your business. The flower bed came out beautiful. I was glad you changed it around. Thank you

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

He is a keeper for sure❣️

It was hard to watch those beautiful caladiums trashed ......gardening in Central FL they are perrineal!!

@@suepowers1139 In Minnesota it gets so hot I can't keep mine longer than a month or two. Probably also because I forget to water. 😟

Jenny you have some strength! My marshmallow arms would not have been able to carry two bags of soil!

[@aa37988]

Oh, I felt like crying when I saw the caladium bulbs being discarded. I faithfully save mine and dry them to store for the next year. They were lovely. New planting looks great. I've never used Artemisia, I'll try looking for it in Arkansas.

[@larakalevra2233]

I admire your bravery with those beautiful caladiums; I can never bring myself to pull out plants that aren't entirely dead and end up limping them along until winter finally clears up space in my beds!

[@BenjaminLeong-LCCMMalaysia]

The arrangement turned out nice! Those plants and the ones to come should be happy with all that compost. Great idea to do that! You and Jerry are so sweet together love to see that.

[@tracymiller1054]

We got our first real snowstorm in MA yesterday, so let the long wait for winter to be over begin🤦‍♀ I am already jonesing for green plants, flowers and warm weather so here I am catching up on videos that I missed earlier this year because I was busy outside sweating in my own garden. Love watching you guys work together on a project!

[@rosemountfarms2897]

We totally understand the need for new life in Garden in Season. I love my Garden to look the season as well. We have a very small greenhouse on our farm and grow a few plants to sell and also get some from our local grower. Plants just get tired looking after a certain time of year, especially annuals. Everything looks beautiful!

[@Gracefulwoman]

You almost killed me tearing out those beautiful caladiums. I'm in 5b, outside Chicago, so mine won't last as long. I have to enjoy them as long as possible. I had to laugh though. I do the very same thing when putting out plants. I set them out and stare at them for a bit to decide whether or not I like the layout. Inevitably I do change things around and stare at them some more before finally planting. 😄

[@Edu_Kate]

@Gardening with Creekside Get a life! We know you're not really Jenny. Creep!

[@learningcurvenz]

Agree, Caladiums have a bulb that can be lifted, cleaned, dried out and replanted next season. Maybe she was going to save them.

[@brandieshaw9484]

I am in 6b and I always pull my caladiums and store the tubers in my basement for the winter. They come crack good as new the next year. I even grab some from Lowe’s clearance racks in late summer to stretch the gardening budget for next year.

It is a very pretty bed no doubt. I feel like its more spring like at the moment, perhaps when the kale deepens it will color up. Great job.

[@GardeningCare]

Happy gardening jenny👍🏼👍🏼👏🌷🌷🌻🌺🌺🌺 Beautiful upload dear 🌷

[@dianem7771]

It's going to look so pretty. I love pansies and violas. Mine are going in next week.

[@jills3649]

I planted pansies last year in October and pulled them out in May to replace them for summer plants. They did very well and lasted so long. Zone 8b FL

[@Edu_Kate]

I have the opposite type of soil as you (sandy), but I do love nicely amended soil. That'll be fun to work in in the coming years. I think I heard we'll get down to mid 40s tonight here in Minneapolis. Cold weather be damned! I planted some things today. I also picked up some decorative small pumpkins for my steps. (I know the squirrels will get to them.) 🐿️ Behind my three nepeta I planted a couple Celosia that look like graduated pink to fuchsia rockets. In front, I planted five of those tiny kale that grow on a tall stem. Nearby is a row of bubble gum petunias. It's so cute! Say, I have to share a funny story. A few weeks ago I had a mature maple tree removed. It made me nervous that the tree (planted long before I moved here 30 years ago) had two leaders. Last summer, we had a tornado (rated zero! Who ever heard of a category zero?) so I wanted it gone. It was close to the power lines. I asked the guys to cut me a couple sittin' on stumps. They left me the "crotch" of the tree. I flipped it over so it's one big seat for my fat fanny. Everytime I look at it now I laugh because it looks like someone is standing in the dirt.

[@CatCaretakerID]

That soil acidifier sure does make the plants pop. I think a perennial shrub like the Storm Cloud Bluestar Amsonia would look great in the back of that bed.

[@maiflauer]

After all the hard work you two did I hope you are taking the time to enjoy your new patio before winter comes. In NE we also use pansies in the fall and spring. I had pansies one year from spring to fall, blue ones, that I replaced in the fall with fall colored ones 🙂! Love how the blossoms of pansies dance like little faces in a breeze 😊!

[@ejohnson3131]

Great job Jennie! It’s amazing seeing that flower bed along the new stone path filling in. I think it needs some vertical focal points like maybe 3 junipers or arborvitaes evenly spaced along the middle to create a tiered effect… I remember when you planted the green giants and the cedars along the back for privacy in case they ever developed the land behind you. It’s amazing to think anyone would ever take down that beautiful forest. Anyway, I’m just enjoying a day off with a hot cup of coffee while waking up so I can get out there and do some yard work myself. Thanks for the inspiration my friend!

Good morning! When you first lined the artemisia in front, I said she won’t like that and I laughed out loud when you changed it. 😆. It looks great! But I will say when he tossed the caladiums I was like save the bulb! But I realize as a grower it’s probably not worth your time. It is so different here as compared to up home these annuals last a long time and it’s tough just to pull them when still blooming! I really don’t know how you work in this humidity. BUT it’s beautiful now! 74 for today. Jerry jumps in to help it means so much when you are hot and sweaty.😁. Enjoy this week!

You are not the only one who thinks a project won't take long and doesn't want to stop til it's done. Sometimes I'm so hot, sweaty, and exhausted that I can barely drag myself into the house.

I’m with those that were “upset” about the caladiums and pentas. As a nursery owner and grower, you would think you could over winter and resell those babies. Offer to give them away or donate to your local community. Loved the new planting

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

These plants are patented plants from Proven Winners and it is illegal for me to propagate or "sell" these plants 2x ( I say 2x because I used them once in my landscape & it would be unethical and illegal for me to resale them). These plants are called annuals for a reason.
