PT2 | Heat Loving Perennials | Landscape Design, Planting & Dividing for a Summer Flower Garden

Hi YT Friends, Today, we are going to be doing some budget friendly dividing and transplanting in our new perennial and evergreen garden. We will be planting and dividing some Proven Winners Amazing Daisies, Homestead Verbena, mystic spires salvia, Lantana Irene, Blue Point Juniper and a couple of Morning Light Maiden Ornamental Grasses. To do this, we need to move around and transplant some existing plants and bulbs! I still have a lot of seedlings in my greenhouse, but will do those another time! If you haven't seen the previous video, be sure to check it out here! It is all about what we did to prep this bed for our new perennials, including drip irrigation, amending clay soils and more! I hope you will leave comments...I love your feedback! Stay Tuned for the Final Reveal and Front Yard Garden Tour coming very soon! Thanks for joining me and I hope you found this video helpful! If so, don't forget to like, subscribe and share! ~ Happy Gardening! Dawn

I love how you plant in drifts! I think your new garden bed is going to fill in and be absolutely beautiful.

Thank you so much Diane! I hope so!

Great job. Your hard work is showing. Your plants should enjoy their new home!

[@shadedfromreality]

I hope so! Thank you so much!

New viewer and loved all the plantings and dividing... but would love to see a street view of the entire home to get a feel for the whole space. I love brick and stone homes. Saw a snippet at 18:37 which peaked my curiosity .

[@shadedfromreality]

Thank you! Actually, I have a front yard garden tour loading today, so you’ll be able to see it from the street!

Looks beautiful ❤. Love your videos. Question….you said your salvias are a few years old. Do you keep them small or do you let them grow a couple feet tall and wide? They get so woody and grow a little crazy and I don’t think I like that look as much as I thought I would but they look pretty good when they’re smaller.

[@shadedfromreality]

Hi Carolyn! Thank you so much! Every salvia is different, so I am not sure if you are talking about the Henry Duelberg or a different variety?! I agree with you and don't like it when they get woody! My Duelberg got woody on me, but it had fresh little babies adjacent to the woody stems, so in early spring, I dug up the entire plant, cut off the babies and threw out the woody part. Replanted the new babies and they didn't skip a beat. I hope that helps for whatever variety you are dealing with!

The juniper was a great last minute addition. Looking forward to the tour!

[@shadedfromreality]

Thank you Devin! It’s coming soon! Hopefully mid week…editing takes forever!

[@shadedfromreality]

Hi Vikki, I’m in the Flower Mound area. Are you in N Texas as well?

Do you have problems with rabbits nipping on your plants? Beautiful garden

[@shadedfromreality]

Hello Alandra, Yes, at times I do! Right now, I do not. I know it's a frustrating thing to wake up to flowerless flowers!

[@missjunique719]

I think rollie pollies are a good bug. They eat dead stuff.

[@shadedfromreality]

Hello @missjunique719, Yes, they can be good in small amounts snd they do eat decaying matter! However, when you have armies of them, like I do, there isn't enough decaying matter and will and DO go after the live plants...they have to eat! When they start showing up on the stems and leaves of your heathy plants, there is a problem!

[@missjunique719]

@@shadedfromreality That makes sense!

[@user-tc2ov5tb2u]

Boy by now I'd be a dirty mess.

[@shadedfromreality]

Yep! I usually am:)
