SEEDS & PLANT PLUGS in the Meadow House Gardens - Ep. 277

[@Fellowtellurian]

You know your early bird audience too well, posting these videos so we can sip our morning coffee and look at flowers. 🎉😊

We have had a lot of small, native asters popping up here and there this fall. I think that a more intentional planting of more of them should be on my agenda for next year. They are so pretty. That meadow garden out back is going to be amazing.

I love landscape plugs. They are so easy to plant and cost effective. Definitely have to check on them in case they've been pulled by an animal. We had some Viola pedata come up on their own in one garden and I was so happy! Native plants are so low maintenance.

[@sunitashastry5270]

Ifs it’s just a few plugs, I set stones close by. Seems to keep some of the critters from digging them up.

[@BotanicAlley]

@@sunitashastry5270 That's a great tip. Thank you!

Summer I like your style, the more I watch these videos; the more the logic for landscaping makes sense to me.

Merry Christmas Brie!

Love Prairie Moon Nursery!

Hi, Summer!!!! These videos captivate me. I have purchased a large quantity of native plant seeds from the Brandywine Conservancy in Pa. and most of them are plants you’ve featured. I’d love to know how you are watering the pollinator gardens you’ve featured in this video. Thanks💜

Sky blue asters are so cool. I think they got choked out by goldenrod in the garden I planted [by seed] with my late mother, but there were a few seasons where they just exploded and it was beautiful. I also think they may have hybridized with the other asters ... now there's sort of a generic blue-purple aster that seems to predominate.

Nice to see you planted the Salvia Lyrata. I love the red colors in the leaves. It is crazy aggressive but in your gardens it should be great. Thanks for your post.

[@moradmoradi8518]

Thanks!

[@astridgomez1472]

Love the Flock episodes. I am learning so much! Please share resources on where to purchase native plant plugs for residential use. Plant sales are great, but it can be expensive when you want a large number of plants.

[@alanFconrad]

Progress!.......looking good, the future is bright!

[@KokoraLife]

It is looking so nice. Great work and thank you for the information.

[@Fellowtellurian]

Know that winter is fast approaching, have you considered planting any red or yellow twig dogwoods? Something to give the garden some bright winter color?

[@da_ladyzhenvindavenport]

I always look forward for updates and additions. 🎉 👍🪴

Wonderful plantings Summer. I live in at 6500' elevation, in a zone 6 alpine mountain range.... Rabbits and squirrels feast on everything I've been planting for decades, 90% natives yet oh so discouraging every time I discover another beauty mowed to the ground. If anyone has any insights, approaches or tips for my ravenous rabbits and squirrels I'd greatly appreciate it. Always fascinated by gardens that thrive and flourish in all their glory and go uneaten......

[@SarahSmeekens]

Love these videos! I think that aster was actually a symphyotrichum cordifolium. Great aster for that garden.

[@rickyt3961]

thank you Summer🪴 appreciate the plant insight 😄

[@charlesbale8376]

Enjoyed the video...I'm always looking for garden design suggestions and plant options.

Can you share from where you bought these plug trays? Thank you.

Summer, what is the reddish coloured foliage to the right at 28:45? Stunning! Also, what is the name of the red dianthus at 31:05 ? Another beauty!

[@BitsOfHarmony]

I just love violets

[@kclancy8128]

Thanks for explaining the refrigeration needed for the violet seeds. I did not have success last year. I will try again.

[@brianandtamiolson2330]

I love and learn so much from your channel. I live in California and I have tried so hard to find plugs and I cannot locate any. Can you toss out a few companies that might mail order to California plugs?

My (7aNJ) blue sky aster only grows in a somewhat shaded area . Anytime I divide and put in sun it does not grow 😢

[@luckyhomestead]

2:55 that is not how nitrogen fixing works. You fundamentaly misunderstood the concept. If you want that nitrogen fixers work, you need to cut them and leave it there leaves and roots….

[@FireflyOnTheMoon]

Why would you fertilise in fall?

[@jetv1471]

Isn’t there an invasive violet from Asia that looks very much like our native ?

[@Fellowtellurian]

I have no idea where you find all these amazing specialty plants. I’m down in DMV and can’t even find a plug nursery and with a sedge costing $20/$25 a pop at the local nursery, there’s no way to plant this dynamic and lush a garden.

⁠@@jetv1471she just has a link to Espoma which is the soil provider. I don’t see a link or reference to the plant nursery.

Your roses will be eaten to death by the deer if not protected. Ask me how I know. Roses are very nutritious for wildlife and hard to get established because of the browse pressure. Good luck.

[@FireflyOnTheMoon]

They have deer fences and will be repairing the holes
