Proven Winners sneak peek for 2024!

[@katieme7165]

I am retired from Mahoneys growing division greenhouses in Woburn Ma. Just looking at this beautiful open greenhouse space is making me homesick 💚

[@fannieallen6005]

I absolutely love Proven Winner plants. Great quality!

[@janicesimmons4634]

Love all the beautiful new flowers for 2024. Can't wait to plant a few. Thanks

[@michelesimpson2237]

Yea Truffula Pink Gomphrena is my favorite plant. I have them everywhere in my garden. Love them and they winter over in my 8a zone.❤️

[@andreaschnapp6454]

I’m in zone 9a and have grown Truffula since it came out! Never knew it would survive year to year. Good to know!

[@lovelight9164]

We need some actual blue colored flowers, not grower purple called blue but actual blue.

[@denisehoag8143]

0:55 maybe try "plumbago". It is blue, blue. It's more of a groundcover but it's a great perennial..

[@johnwaterman8884]

Margie- I have had very blue plumbago for at least 15 years it is agreat ground cover.

[@marleneegan-hm7lr]

In warmer zones ( I’m in 9] Butterfly pea vine grows beautifully. It’s the most vibrant ( dark ) blue I’ve ever seen in a flower

[@katethegardener]

@@marleneegan-hm7lr I hope you are posting from Indonesia because this is NOT a native to North America. This is why our country is invaded with insects and plants that are invasive.

[@marleneegan-hm7lr]

@@katethegardener I was unaware that this thread was discussing native plants. I believe the poster mentioned the word blue, not native. As far as I know many proven winners plants are not native to North America. I have never seen an issue with butterfly pea becoming invasive in any way where I live.

[@SUN7SHINE25]

I enjoyed the host he fun with description of plant n asking questions

[@edwardranno7119]

Proven winners have been the best flowers for my hanging baskets …super bell bubblegum

[@dvssayer5621]

I'm so excited! Yay!

[@cynthiaborden4209]

I'm still looking for the 2020 to 2022 flowers, and you are showing 2024😁

[@SUN7SHINE25]

Love love the coleus so beautiful they all are Gorgeous

[@SUN7SHINE25]

Purple my favorite color 💜 i plan to use lots of purple this season.. all beautiful plants i loall the colors and will have almost all the colors thanks for showing I absolutely absolutely absolutely love plants

[@katethegardener]

Nice to see more of the Luminary series of Phlox. I have the white and the light pink and wow are they ever spectacular. They are beautiful and no white mildew and they repeat bloom for so long if you deadhead. This one will be on my list to add for 2024.

[@estutz47]

Love the yellow supertunia. But I do wish Four Star wouldn’t load so many PGRs on the cuttings. Sometimes they remain stunted all season.

[@invinciblecucumber]

That flowering quince! 😍😍😍

[@dzintrarowe4272]

Thank you for the preview.

[@SUN7SHINE25]

Beautiful luminary plant I'm looking for that one

[@brendaallid-makalintal4345]

Thank you! Knew nothing of that.

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Wonderful video, it's just so exciting.❤

[@scottjohnson6173]

I find that verbena and Superbells and supertunias and phlox Grow really well in zone 10 which is where I’m at in Florida

[@judywright5424]

I watch garden answers and garden by the creek I see lots of your plant I hope I can the bubble some where Judy

[@Angie-ci1lp]

Finally someone mentioned ZONING! Maybe deer restraint next.

[@olsonlr]

spirea on the deer menu?

[@adriankap2978]

Thank you for the video! I only wish you'd list them.

[@GrowerTalks]

List them ... in the description?

[@adriankap2978]

@@GrowerTalks sorry, I’m used to others who list the names of the plants in the description. Thank you anyway.

[@GrowerTalks]

@@adriankap2978 Ah! Just clarifying. Your wish is my command - they are now all listed.

[@Tarot_Time_with_Belle]

PLEASE HELP???????? 🙏 I’m in the uk and have spent four yrs watching Laura from GA and I can’t purchase or find super bells anywhere here? Trawled the net for hours Pls pls tell me where I can buy these from without paying astronomical prices on shipping? Or are they sold under a different name here? I’m in England SE. If anyone can help me find them I’d be forever in your debt! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@GrowerTalks]

Stay tuned ... I believe the folks at PW are tracking down a local retailer for you!

[@deegrade]

Is this an industry video? I'm not sure what the code words are that are used here.

[@GrowerTalks]

It is intended for the growers and retailers of these plants, but we are happy to give gardeners a sneak peek!

[@sardarasul5259]

Amazing flower

[@barbaraayres2617]

Would be nice to know the size

[@marietighe2602]

Why can we not get Proven winners all over England I’ve been watching Garden Answer for years she’s a great Ambassador for your plants but I would love some of your plants x

[@GrowerTalks]

Marie, trying going here: www.kernock.co.uk/acatalog/Proven_Winners.html It's a grower site, but if you contact them, they can tell you who they sell to. Good luck!

[@nindyhunt]

Can you say if they love sun or shade

[@GrowerTalks]

Added to the description, Nindy.

[@Tarot_Time_with_Belle]

Supertunia are impossible to find in England uk. Help 😢????

[@JillSparling-uo6mp]

Kernick Park nurseries in England. They sell to other retailers throughout England.

[@Bamboo4U2]

@@katethegardener you can't. Supertunias are bred to produce sterile flowers. They can only be grown from cuttings (propagation).

[@cindyrae2605]

What are you feeding them with in the greenhouses to make them so big?

[@GrowerTalks]

I checked, and the grower said they use Proven Winners fertilizer, but a professional formulation. Not much different though than the PW fertilizer you can buy at your favorite garden center. The main key is to feed! Too many folks neglect that, or don't do it often enough.

[@cindyrae2605]

Thanks for the scoop! @@GrowerTalks

[@Tarot_Time_with_Belle]

Superbena? Another I can’t find. When are proven winners opening up in the uk for us who drool over Laura’s PW plants??????

[@kernockparkplants]

Hi Bella, we have replied to your top comment to help you find these in the UK. Hope that helps!

[@donnajoy6951]

How can we get the annuals and all the plants to NORTH TEXAS. These are a hard thing to find. I have a friend ship stuff to me from North Carolina - Please get some here (shipping is expensive. 🙂

[@GrowerTalks]

Check for your nearest retailer here - www.provenwinners.com/retailers/locate Otherwise, you can order online direct from PW here - url.avanan.click/v2/___provenwinnersdirect.com/collections/proven-winners-annuals?view=boost-pfs-original___.YXAzOmJhbGxob3J0OmE6bzo5MzMzZmQyZDJiNWQzNmY1YzFiYzdkMzYwOGVhZjIzOTo2OmRjNWQ6MWEyMWNmM2U2ZjdjZTcyNDAxYjNjMzQ2YjdiNTNiNmZhMjliZDY0ZjE4NzQxNzVkZGI1Y2ZkOTI4MmY4NGU0MDpoOlQ

[@susanarojo3906]

There are lobelias, felicias, plümbagos, agapanthus…etc.

[@elainelight9286]

I have never done well with verbenas in a pot or in the ground. They dry out and die on me. How is superbena different? Should i try again?

[@GrowerTalks]

Perhaps you have been growing seed verbenas, which are not nearly as large or vigorous as Superbena and the other varieties grown from cuttings. Give one a try and report back! And remember to water and feed!

[@judywright5424]

I been watch and buying your pink bubble gum I can’t find the seeds I want have my yard fill up love the them can you tell me where to there to get them

[@GrowerTalks]

No seeds available, Judy - sorry. These are all grown from cuttings, available only to professional growers.

[@rooney2561]

They aren't just for sale to professional growers.Hes wrong there. Go check your local nursery. That's where I get them.

[@GrowerTalks]

I meant the cuttings are only available to professional growers. Finished plants of Supertunia Vista Bubblegum are available at garden centers and nurseries everywhere.

[@judywright5424]

I watch

[@lisafeeney91]

Double Play Dolly, beautiful 😍

[@brendaallid-makalintal4345]

What is GR?

[@GrowerTalks]

What we were saying is "PGR" - plant growth regulator, which is a hormone applied to help plants branch and produce more flowers for the gardener.

[@faroozdoji]

How can I get the seeds?

[@GrowerTalks]

Farooz, these are grown from cuttings, not seed. And you cannot get just the cuttings. You will have to look for a nursery or plant shop or garden center near you that sells Proven Winners plants. If there isn't one, go to www.provenwinners.com/catalog.

[@s.z.6200]

I want to see the flowers not the tag.

[@elainelight9286]

What is pr?

[@GrowerTalks]

I think what you were hearing is "PGR" - plant growth regulator. It's a hormone that helps keep a plant compact and bushy. You benefit from loads and loads of branches (which makes loads and loads of flowers).

[@elainelight9286]

Thanks for the info. and for being my ears! 😄

[@MilesSherry]

Yep…Yip…Vigor…

[@juliepuhr9806]

What does “gr “ mean?

[@chrisbeytes1892]

That would be "growth regulator," more commonly referred to as PGR, or plant growth regulator.

[@sandrakendrick176]

Don’t like the new pots at all. Won’t be buying!!

[@gaywizard2000]

Love the host! He could voice a dog show!!!

[@ХельгаХельга-м6й]

❤❤❤

[@edanaestenes9656]

I will not buy any plants that have that white stuff in the soil, and I definitely will never buy another plant or shrub that has those little green fertilizer balls in the planting soil. Those green things stay forever in the soil and they never break down. I had to dig out plants that I lost to a drought in 2022. Some of those plants were in the ground five years or longer. Guess what was in the soil? Thousands of green balls that never broke down. I have green balls everywhere. I will never buy that crap again. Monrovia has a much better planting medium. They rarely have those green balls, and if I see them, I put it right back down and won't buy it. Never again.

[@GrowerTalks]

That white stuff is no doubt perlite, which is a natural product made from volcanic glass. It helps the soil hold air. Those little green balls you see are actually the outer shell of a fertilizer "prill" - the nutrients soak through it, leaving the ball empty. Squish one and see. The prill will biodegrade naturally; it just takes a while for it to happen. They are harmless. By the way, I don't know a grower of perennials or shrubs or trees that doesn't use slow-release fertilzer - it's effect, prevents runoff, saves water and is friendly to the environment.

[@gaywizard2000]

This has me saying Vigor please!!!!!
