Went through a ton of other people’s videos to get this information and finally found yours. Thanks for getting straight to the point!

Doug, you always have the BEST videos-they give me the confidence to go ahead and do it without fear of "messing things up"! Thank you!

[@magdapracsiu3096]

Thank you so much!!! This has been the most informative video I have watched. So short and full of good tips and clear explanations.

@suemar63 my pleasure - plants are usually quite forgiving and even if we mess them up, many/most will outgrow our mistakes. :-)

That was good.

Hello Doug Green, please tell me where can I get some Marigolds seeds that size , like the one in your video ? I very love to have them in my yard, thank you.

Loving these informational videos Doug, thank you! How do you prune the different lavender plants? I have munstead and 1-2 other names. Also do you have any knowledge of restarting plants/bulbs and tubers after they're overwintered in their pots? I'm in zone 5 Green Bay Wisconsin and I have really good luck with them this way but there are a few finicky ones not wanting to come out after being divided. I want to put them outside to get some Sun but I don't know how cold they can take it? There's no growth above the soil line. Thank you so much for your videos!

You've asked a ton of questions - most are answered on my sites so if you head over to www.douggreensgarden.com and do some searches on the bottom of the page, you're likely going to find what you need.

[@STORMCHASER715]

Doug Green Thanks. I'm sorry, I really was only asking about the lavender and bulb starting. I'll do some more researching.

+AkiraElric1985 - they aren't marigolds, they're Echinacea or coneflower. Available at all seed companies and garden centers. Easy to grow
