Hi!
My name is Justin and I have my managed my family's business (S&K Greenhouse) for the last 10 years! It is a local garden center in Shelby, NC that my family started around 25 years ago.
We have a strong desire to discuss and teach gardening to the online community and welcome anyone who wants to learn. Though we have been involved in the plant world for decades we have found that there is always something to learn when it comes to gardening.
Whether you are a master gardener or just starting out this channel is for you. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our videos!

[@loischelli1549]

yes very knowledgeable

[@rebeccamontague9811]

Anytime you create videos that show plants and shrubs that stay smaller/contained for littler spaces are highly appreciated. Thanks!

[@spirea99]

I rarely comment but i just have to say these kind of videos are genius. It's the kind of content we need because of its usefulness and practicality. Thank you so much. Gave me great gardening ideas. love it and its brilliant...really appreciate it.

[@roseannacromer6405]

I have to thank you for these videos. You’re energy and enthusiasm for gardening is infectious.

[@ES-jw2nn]

It's always a joy to watch your videos! Your enthusiasm and love for plants has inspired me to learn more and hopefully transform my yard into the envy of the neighborhood.

[@johnsmith-wd5sq]

I used to grow my own Marijuana and I didn't get this excited when the new crops came in! I Love this guy!

[@patriciagrisham5938]

How can you choose?! That’s very hard when you’re a Plant Person…you want them All!

[@lovetofly32]

Just came to the comments halfway through the video to say this guy is gonna make me go broke because I'm gonna buy them all😅

[@marthabaratti2418]

Beautiful, healty, perfectly grown nursery stock. Great presentation!

[@brandonadams6041]

I am always introduced to new and beautiful plants when I watch you. Thank you

[@skgreenhouse]

Awesome! I'll try to keep them coming!

[@rolandjaudes3041]

The candy corn shrub and blue butterfly bush, beautiful!

[@zsianz1]

Brilliant as always. I guess there must be a different attitude where you are to Scotland because in the U.K. a lot of people seem to think evergreens are dull and don’t go for them, I think they are brilliant and gardening with a cheerful looking landscape for winter was what kicked off my interest in gardening. You might be a log way away but I find your videos so helpful! I wish I could come and buy all your plants hehe.

[@skgreenhouse]

Wow, that's amazing! Thanks for tuning in! I am partial to evergreens, so I definitely make a lot of content on them. There are many other gardeners in the area that focus more on annuals and perennials. I think the most beautiful landscapes have a little bit of everything. 🙂

[@garagegymgranny1965]

I love evergreens 👍🏻I am a Southern Transplant originally from Glasgow. I have an area about a 180ft long by 40 ft at the back of my yard. I staggered Green Giants and Cryptomerias as well as Carolina Sapphires can't wait to see them fill in.

[@David-wc5wr]

​@@garagegymgranny1965sounds like you need a splash of yellow and red to complete it

[@aideendoyle2576]

Looks like a fabulous garden centre ….. love the videos! Thanks for all the great ideas and super info. Watching from Ireland - keep the videos coming, love them 😊

[@butterflylove2642]

🌲🌲🌲 Yes, color items bring on cheer, but evergreens deliver on richness & the “ahhhhh” of one’s mind. I love them. Plus their fragrance & how they clean the air can’t be beat.

[@MilesSherry]

That’s how you make an entrance 😅 And, the information is incredible too!

[@skgreenhouse]

Hahaha, gotta have a dramatic entrance. I think I could have been a pro wrestler lol

[@MilesSherry]

For sure... 😁

[@penny8128]

Love your energy, enthusiasm, passion & personality!! You are the BEST PLANT PERSON to learn from!! ❤

[@ashleyamelia08]

LMAOOOO - wheeaaa - "all the combinations you show are for the sun!" lol - my entire back yard is deep shade, that part was hilarious to me.

[@skgreenhouse]

Haha! I'm going to do more videos on shade plants in the near future. Shade is a wonderful thing to have, especially in the summer ☀️

[@thejefftompkins]

I love the fact that you're talking directly about these plant pairings. So many videos just highlight the bush, but not talk about the practical layout. Thanks for including some shade shrubs. My front of my house is north facing and the last owners put in a bunch of sun loving plants that we've had to relocate. Any other shade recommendations? I'm in Atlanta, GA. Thanks!

[@tricia8727]

Love that you are featuring all the great colors of evergreens! 9 months out of the year that is what i am looking at. This video was AMAZING. Thank you!

[@marthabaratti2418]

Best video, love all the combinations. You give me lots of planting ideas, I wish I lived closer to your nursery .. or better yet wish your nursery was in my location.

[@ladikmk]

That was SO fun!!! I am definitely a plant person; been one for the last 45 years and still growing strong. Just subscribed because I absolutely LOVED your shrub combos - just gorgeous and easy for a novice gardener to understand too.

[@kellyreif532]

I can’t decide they are all beautiful! I love your layout suggestions and combos. 💗

[@skgreenhouse]

Thank you! 😊

[@vicvolleti5789]

I'm building berm and was doing foundation planting this year. I had so much fun watching your videos for options and advice. I appreciate your videos. Even though I get jealous over some of your suggestions that won't go colder than zone 7.😂

[@skgreenhouse]

I know what you mean! I am fortunate to live in a zone that gives us diverse options.

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

I'm a little jealous. myself. I only go to zone 6B.😅😊😅

[@barjrfarmandranch6002]

Yes. Even though I’m in North Texas, I’ve learned the hard way, pick plants from zone 6-8. The big swings in temperature require the hardiest of the hardy!

[@veronicamoreno9892]

Hi thanks to you I became a plant person , I bought heaven scent Gardenia , Azalea 🌺 blush pink Nandina, obsession N, Ever red mini loropetalum, compact Japanese holly 🤗 thank you from Durham North Carolina

Mission accomplished! Thank you for sharing! Those are some really great options. 👍

I like your advertising and your test combination .I will bie all these shrubs for my dig and beautiful landscape.

[@sandysweeney41]

Just stumbled across your video and this is exactly what I need! I struggle on what to plant so I don't plant anything. I'll watch more now!

[@oscargutierrez6375]

My wife and I stumbled upon your page this past weekend and fell in love! Loved your passion, excitement, and knowledge. Opened our eyes to a world we thought we knew. Just left my local nursery with Haul of plants inspired by your videos. Love from Zone 8b in Texas!

[@mandocool]

Always appreciate your selections and taste in combination… I owe you many thanks for helping me select the right evergreens in the past 😎

[@skgreenhouse]

That's awesome! Thanks for letting me know. 🙂

[@danielfowler5940]

I’m not sure where you are but man I love plants . So peaceful. Love the combos you come up with . I’m starting another Nusery and love helping people chose what looks good. Again great combination of plants and sizes. Daniel

[@sammysworld5485]

Hi Justin. Great content! We all can use helpful tips on planting combos. I have a mixture of evergreens w perennials to make it look more interesting. Ppl stop to compliment my garden all the time.

[@skgreenhouse]

That's the way to do it! Maybe I can show a little more advanced plans in the future. 🙂

[@LisaSkantz-rs6dd]

Videos like this are soooo helpful- had to take a road trip yesterday and come see your nursery! Appreciate all the planting suggestions and encouragement for my shedding white pine! Justin and Al were great. Your plants look really healthy and full! Definitely worth the hour drive and I’ll do it again 😊 Please keep the videos coming 👍

[@skgreenhouse]

It was a pleasure meeting you! Thank you for making the drive! You're welcome back anytime. 😀

[@5262janna]

Perfect timing, I am considering redoing my front foundation shrubs

[@maureenmckenna5220]

Have the pugster blue butterfly bush, four of them, and can attest to its beauty and prolific blooming. I loved the bowling ball arborvitae and the cryptomeria. The combinations are lovely. I have the Florida sunshine and they do send off shoots that should be trimmed, but it is a wonderful, seemingly deer proof bush. Stays its gorgeous color all winter. Thanks for all the wonderful choices.

[@rphjacobs9197]

I am trying to decide which video of yours is my favorite. This one… the conifer video… or Bruces’s garden tour. Bruce’s was pretty awesome!!! But the other two mentioned were so informative… I took screen shots through the whole video!!!! I sure wish I lived closer to your greenhouse. Keep the videos coming!!!!

[@bettyfox2220]

I'm always intrigued every time I watch how informational you are. Always Amazing watching and learning all about these wonderful plants. I continue to search which ones I want, so hard to choose, want them all!!

[@maryannferencak3799]

Great combinations! I actually have all of these shrubs in my yard except Flirt Nandina. I just planted several Mini Jazz Hands loropetalum in front of some Fire Chief arborvitae, which are backed by some Soft Caress Mahonia. I love the combinations. I'm in 8b Tallahasse, and with the heat and dryness this summer, I had to watch all of my arborvitae carefully. They are not good at telling you when they are dry!

[@skgreenhouse]

You're right about that! I think you'll enjoy those plants. I'm excited about the Mini Jazz Hands. I think it'll become a staple in the warmer zones.

[@timraysby]

Thundercloud plum looking strong in my front yard man! Jubilation smells great on the porch every morning! Will be back for more plants come spring!😊 -Tim Raysby Simpsonville

Hey man! Nice to hear from you. I knew that Thundercloud was gonna look great! Glad it survived the drive lol

Great ideas that hit my plant zone this time. On time excellent choices👍🤗 thanks

I just planted 2 obsessions nandina to replace 2 Japanese barberrys on the side of my home. Had a hard time finding locally so ordered from Southern Living. I planted a golden globe in the front to replace a dead shrub. I want a couple of jubilation gardenias but need to find a spot for them. I have a couple of mountain fires as well! Luv your videos!❤
