I'm so glad you found it! I was having the same issue with my indoor pepper plants. Hand pollination was so easy and it solved my issues, I hope the same is true for you!

Thank you so much, you are very kind!

They're purple inside too, very cool!

Oh absolutely, I love posting updates on the plots I plant. For most native plots we tend to see full results in the 3rd year, so I'll be posting a few updates a year until then!

@BrightLaneGardens That sounds great. I love seeing progress videos. I'm looking forward to them.​@@BrightLaneGardens

It's everywhere! Cedar mulch is our go-to - undyed & shredded. Cedar tends to take a lot longer to break down as well, so you'll get a few more years out of it before you have to replace it.

Thank you! We take sun protection very seriously around here :)

It's wonderful!! It's also edible, so you can use it just as you would use traditional cooking thyme. It's a win win!

Thank you for watching, happy planting!

So glad it was helpful, thank you so much!

I use this seed collection kit amzn.to/4dctinC - but really there's a lot of options for storing seeds over the winter. I do recommend against the paper envelopes, only because that still leaves them susceptible to water damage via humidity. Any plastic container (old medicine bottles work great!) or glass container will safely hold your seeds. Keep in a cool-ish area and out of the sunlight. They'll be good to go in the spring! Just keep in mind that milkweed does like a cold stratification period, so you will want to plan ahead for that.

Thank you so much, I love reading comments like this! When I first got into gardening I felt confused on a lot of the terms, so I try to make that a priority when doing my own gardening videos now :) Thank you for watching!

Oh yes, we will have plenty!

Thank you, I appreciate it! I don't use a script so sometimes it turns out good and sometimes... not so much haha. But I'm glad this one was a good one!

@@BrightLaneGardens Good luck, and don't worry, you doing great. Keep it up. Greeting from Dubai :)

Hahaha I'm so glad someone finally called me out on this! I have NO idea why but most of my herbaceous perennials and garden plants are male, but my shrubs and flowering trees are allll female 😂 I don't script my videos so that's just how it comes out haha. Hope all your 'she' plants are doing great this year!

Thank you for watching!

I typically transplant the starts using that method unless it's a plant that has a really strong root system right off the bat (like a green bean plant). If I can, I'll separate these out from the rock wool and just put them right in the clay pebbles. The rockwool is fantastic for seed starting, but I do run into algae issues when it's left in the system. It's a manageable issue, but if I can get the rockwool out ahead of time it just saves me the hassle down the road.

Thank you!

Happy to hear it :) thanks for watching!

Hi there! so this tree was started as a stock tree that actually had different varieties grafted onto it as limbs (so I didn't start this one on my own!). I have to admit I don't usually start fruit trees from seed, it's just such a long waiting period until they produce fruit! Often upwards of 7 years. If you don't want to buy a full pear tree but maybe don't want to wait so long to grow it from seed, you could also consider purchasing a bare root tree - this is a young sapling that is usually in dormancy, but it has a full root structure and will start to produce leaves once its in the ground. If you're committed to growing a epar tree from seed, this article here has a section at the end of it pertaining to growing pear trees from seed: brightlanegardens.com/grow-a-pear-tree-michigan/

Great question! Deadheading CAN help butterfly weed produce a second set of blooms, but it actually reduces the amount of seeds you'll be able to harvest. Oftentimes the second blooms do not produce seed heads or the seed heads are too immature to harvest. On the flip side, if you're wanting to control the reproduction of your butterfly weed plants you can deadhead to prevent them from spreading seeds into other areas of your landscaping.

Gracias por tus comentarios, no pensé en esto al producir mis videos. En el futuro, hablaré más despacio y agregaré algunos subtítulos útiles para que sea más fácil de entender. ¡Aprecio tu comentario!

We had a HORRIBLE year for aphids this year too - they got my milkweed, butterfly weed, and sooo many of my sumac bushes! We had a really mild winter this past winter so I suspect that had a lot to do with the aphid population this year. Neem oil is my go-to for aphids, but it will kill the monarch caterpillars if ingested. A few other tricks I've used before - coffee (in a spray, not in grounds) or black tea sprayed around the plant and on the leaves. Also campanion planting with marigolds, lavender, or mint (in a container! mint will take over your garden in the ground) have been known to deter aphids. Let's definitely hope for a better year next year!

@@BrightLaneGardens All of my garden is in raised beds or terra cotta pots. I have mint and lavender (started from cold strat seeds) in pots. I will group them around the swamp milkweed (also in terra cotta pot) next spring. Thanks for these suggestions, Anna!!

Thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words.

Glad you found it!

Agreed, check out the video description I did add an amendment after learning more about Peat Moss.

If you take a peek at the description below the video you'll see a few links there labeled :)

Haha that's a great issue to have if you need to buy more envelopes! Love that feeling of collecting your own seeds to save for the following year :)

Wonderful I'm so glad you're getting blooms already this year! Not all 1st year echinaceas will bloom during that first summer so this is a treat! Don't be too discouraged if your seed heads seem small this year, they'll be FULL of seeds next year! Congrats on your success!

@@BrightLaneGardens Thank you, Anna!!

Haha beating the birds to your seed heads is half the battle! But it is so fulfilling to collect your own seeds for next year’s planting! 🙌🏻

Great questions! So in general, you can prune most shrubs during dormancy. So early spring or late fall will both work! Early spring might be beneficial if you get heavy snowfall since you can prune off any limbs that were damaged over the winter. A fresh trim in the spring will also give you a great shape to start the season off with - so truly whatever season works best for you is fine for boxwoods! I do fertilize my boxwoods with the same fertilizer I use on my evergreen shrubs (usually Holly tone). But choose a granular, slow release fertilizer to avoid burning the plant. I actually recommend against mulching because the branches on no woods already grow so low and thick that adding additional organic material on top of the soil might increase your risk of mold or rot. Since boxwoods grow in nice and thick, you really don’t need mulch to help the soil retain moisture anyway, so I would avoid mulching :)

You’ll be able to grab it at any local hardware store! Or I have a link to the brand I like in the description below the video :) thanks for watching!

They’re the best!! 🥰

Had to actually Google what that was. That's just how I talk I suppose :) perhaps muting and turning on captions might help your experience in the future!
