Transform Your Garden with Stunning Evergreens

[@bettyjocohagen7955]

Good morning from Kentucky! I love it that you’re talking about this subject today. I was just telling my husband I need evergreens. 😂😊🌳

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Perfect timing!

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Me too! I want a Tiny Tower Cyprus!🌲

Off topic but my family and I recently drove through Kentucky. Didn’t stop, just drove through. We are already talking about planning a trip. We had no idea how beautiful that state is!

@MrsReed-lf9iz Fantastic!! Lexington is nice BUT Red river gorge is where it's at!

Love that Horstman blue atlas cedar....what a beauty. Your best.....

Good Morning Jenny, I enjoyed this video because living in South Carolina it’s challenging to find beautiful every green trees that can handle this heat and humidity! You have beautiful choices, thank you!❤

You are the best teacher and explainer!! 🥰

[@lanastone2211]

I remember when you put the berm in. Wow! It really has grown.

[@taylorswf23]

Jenny, I chuckled when you were showing the golden oakland holly because I saw the unmistakable tulip poplar seedling in the clematis (I think..?). I find them all throughout my flower beds and it’s part of my frequent chore to yank them. So relatable!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Yes!!!! Those pesky things pop up everywhere 😆

[@nancypatterson374]

Yes and I have one at the back of my yard that’s probably 60-70 feet tall! 🥹

[@lisag6796]

I have one that's 20 feet tall!!

Thanks Jenny. 🌺💚🙃

Good Morning Jenny. Thanks for the overview of your evergreen trees. I have the Stellar Ruby Magnolia that I got from Creekside. This is is second season. It's doing great even though I accidently broke a branch off.

Good Morning from a former North Carolinian now living in Surrey UK 😊❤️🌸🌼

Lucky you, escaping this heat we get in the South, East Texan here sweating with the humidity at midnight and all day long too!!1

[@maureenb1109]

@@GrannyCompton It’s been a pretty unusual wet and cooler summer so not so lucky usually hot here this time a year but I don’t miss the heat and humidity they get in NC my friend lives in Texas so I know it’s been miserable for you all

Good morning, Jenny ☕️ I love the Thundrstorm and Hinoki😍😍I am running out of real estate, Jenny! What does one do? 😂😂My grass is getting smaller and smaller. Great video as always. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐶

It takes my lawn guys less than ten minutes to maintain my yard. 😊

[@lynneswetnam7846]

Thank you, thank you Jenny!! Just what I need. We’re going to be doing some planting this Fall & I need to be getting my favs in line.

Good morning Jenny, another super vedio, thank you. Not many for my zone but love learning about them all.

[@vickiehogan6387]

I’m in south Alabama and Stellar Ruby cannot be beat!! It does not need babying at all and is so pretty!

That’s great to hear!

Always informative ❤ Thank You!❤

[@JoanneCraft-Lane]

Thank you for this video, I found it VERY helpful! I've been wanting to add some evergreen trees to my yard and you gave me food for thought. Love your videos!

[@kimfisk8797]

Hello from Moreau,New York ❤ Faithful and grateful listener 😊

[@RobinM691]

Love the hanoki (sp) trees! Also love the tea olives. I have one in tree form and love it but I am wondering if tea olives can be pruned and used as a hedge as a boxwood alternative? Thank you for sharing your knowledge and always inspiring us ❤

[@taylorswf23]

My favorite (best looking year round) evergreen right now is dwarf yaupon holly. Not a tree, but I lined my driveway bed in them and they have been unflappable through cold winter nights and now hot summer days.

[@marilynbaldwin2934]

They are gorgeous! Very informative!

[@MichaelRusso-k9j]

Hi there Jenny: It's almost noon time here and painter did not show up again! Oh well,backed up! It's not easy to find what you are looking to plant in the garden and who to trust but "YOUR" hydrangeas,bluebeard,honeysuckle vine, & Niagra Falls grass are growing well! Thank you for your information on Evergreen Trees> The Blue Atlas Cedar & Hoki Trees are just beautiful along with the fast growing tree olive and didn't know they actually have white flowers with a lovely fragrance. Have a nice day and week ahead!😍🌻

[@mrs.m4702]

Hi, Jenny❤- Beautiful evergreen interest!

[@mariemcgrath8681]

Very interesting seeing & learning about all your trees. Even in Australia, no one plants in Summer, especially trees. Fortunately, I have well established palms & a few Gums.

[@MourningDove-bn4dk]

Your phantom hydrangeas are looking great.

[@Edu_Kate]

Saved the best for last❣️ Dwarf slender hinoki tree has been on my wish list for a very long time. Good point about checking with local garden center on tree/shrub availability. I asked this spring about 'Sting' arborvitae at this heavily PW-stocked nursery. They didn't have it. I will see if they can order any for future. I ordered 3 online, finally got them planted. Two are doing fine, but center one I split up the two that were in same can because I didn't want two leaders. Well, either I was too rough or they really liked being together because one is in the compost heap and the other will join it soon. I can't fault the grower and ask for a refund. Once they get to full height (claim is 20', probably not in my sandy soil) it will make a nice screen and winter interest outside my bedroom window. I'm enjoying garden videos today because Mother Nature is irrigating my garden. After several years of drought, I have zero complaints this year. Everything looks like they're on steroids...including the weeds.

Hi From Atlanta Amiga Jenny 🌸💕

[@pcrice-lr2dn]

Thanks Jenny,I probably learned more about what not to plant I need a small slender tree for the front of my house where we took one out ,everything I find gets too big ,it faces north in z 7a ,it’s been stressful, but something will go in this fall because it’s been a year,and I can’t stand it no longer 🤦🏻‍♀️. 🍃🌿

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Sometimes knowing what not to plant is just as valuable as knowing what to plant 😊

[@pcrice-lr2dn]

@@GardeningwithCreekside 100 percent. Thanks again 🌿🍃

[@patriciamcgonigal2688]

Your stellar ruby looks much better than the 3 I planted. In 8a. Hopefully mine will do better next season. I only had a few tiny flower buds. Any tips?

[@evalindell2757]

So inspiring even for me in Sweden! Zone 6 Us!

[@tinam9844]

Never mind and reviewed the video and got my answer ❤

[@tinam9844]

OK Jenny, now I really need to know what type of cryptomeria tree is that? We will be doing our new fence line with trees, and I love that tree for sure, lol.

[@WillaLoomis]

Hi Jenny. I like to watch your channel to see what will grow well in NC. I am in the Raleigh area. I was wondering if you would be interested in doing a video on what shrubs do will in NC and those can be used in cut flower arrangements. For example, I really want a pieris, mock orange and ginger wine nine bark. But will those do ok in our heat and humidity. Thanks for considering.

[@sharoncoon5439]

Good morning Jenny . In Ohio it’s 73* now and will get to 88* today. It’s sunny here.

[@nettysenoj3964]

Great video! Question on the Oakland Holly, can you trim them to keep them in check? Meaning I would want them a bit narrower, not 10-12 feet wide. And how far would you plant it from your house? I wanted to plant 2 in front of our 2 story home to anchor a large window. I’ve considered limbing them up as they grow as well. Thanks!

[@jennguybirdwell8696]

Good morning. So glad you made this video as we need to add evergreens for winter interest. What would you suggest to plant near septic? I want the winter interest but the septic tank and field lines run along the front of our house 😢. I've only planted small shrubs and perennials so far, but want some winter interest that can be seen from afar.

[@sherismith2002]

Hi Jenny, great video! I live in Ky, I am looking for some kind of evergreen that grows in mostly a shady spot. My neighbors have a shed that backs up to my yard that I have wanted to get something to block that view. Can you recommend anything that would get tall enough and wide enough to block it? Its about 10ft by 8ft wide. Thank you!

[@susieque933]

Jenny we purchased several green giants for privacy . All have a single trunk except for one that has split into two trunks pretty close to the base. Should we take out one of the trunks while they are still on the smaller size?

[@SueMenges1024]

Could you PLEASE tell me how to get rid of bag worms from my ceder trees Jenny. I don't want to lose them!!

[@shirleyvastine9328]

There is a decision one makes when planting trees when you are in your late 60's. Do I get what I can afford, or do I get a tree that might look like a tree while I can still enjoy it?

[@bettyjocohagen7955]

Ms. Jenny! Plz plz you've just shown me I maybe overwatering! You just said your begonias aren't on irrigation!?? I don't have irrigation yet but me! Lol and I water mine alittle everyday. It's 90 degrees. Plz advise us on overwatering. I'm a somewhat new gardener and tend to over water. Plz help!

[@taylorswf23]

It’s possible! Do you feel your soil before you water? Are the plants showing any signs of overwatering? Sometimes it makes plants wilty, sometimes the leaves turn yellow, etc.

[@valhallamcgaughey3720]

Where I live it’s up in the 90s everyday so they do need a bit more water than in the fall. ***HOWEVER*** they can look wilty just due to the heat, which does not mean change your watering. Like the comment above suggested, definitely feel the soil and if it is already moist, don’t water. In the heat maybe check the soil twice a day until you learn their dry time. I have some begonias in containers outside that are pretty established so I water them about twice a week. I moved them to the shade for the summer. Also you could see if putting up a shade cloth helps (just while it’s above 90°).

[@rickdubler5080]

Does your last tree that you showed? I can’t remember the name, but does it take full sun or shade?

[@loribethartist6353]

I have a question- I have 3 evergreen shrubs in front of my house. When we planted them we put other things too close and I guess getting no light made the sides of the shrubs bare except limbs (I hope that makes sense). We have given them 3 years to rebound and moved the other plants but they still have no new growth on the bare spots. Is there a way to save them or should we pull them out and start over?

[@AttnDefDis_]

I have three sections to my yard and every one has evergreen interest. No trees, though. I'd love to do a smaller spruce, but I've got nowhere to put it.

[@sherrywhitaker3369]

What hydrangeas are behind the Thunder head Pine?
