i put out sticky paper for years and slowly the numbers have dropped to none we did have some people cut some trees down also.
Great to hear your efforts have contributed to the drop in the spotted lanternfly population! We just recommend that you replace the trees to help rebuild the eco-system...Keep up the great work and stay vigilant in the garden; your community efforts will help us all!
Living next to certain types of neighbors can be frustrating with their weedy lawns and crappy invasive plants with voles and gophers. Argh, Ugh.
It's definitely a headache dealing with neighbors who might not be as conscientious about maintaining their lawns and gardens, especially when it comes to invasive species like the spotted lanternfly. These little critters can cause a big ruckus, not just for the aesthetics of the area, but also for the health of the local ecosystem. Proper maintenance is absolutely crucial because it helps keep these pests at bay and prevents them from spreading to other homes and nearby natural habitats. It's like being part of the neighborhood watch, but for nature! Keep fighting the good fight!
I have them here in British Colombia west coast and it seems we only get like a month in September for them to flower compared to humid America with them blooming all summer, something PEOPLE DONT TALK ABOUT! It’s the start of August and we are zone 6b basically and they still haven’t bloomed yet. They survive the winter no problem, they aren’t tropical ones they are swamp plants then don’t like to dry out I heard, I have the summerriffic and Luna series. I also grow lavatera, zebrina, and rose of Sharon and of course a tropical Chinese in a bunch of colours
We often talk about different regions, and we're glad to hear you watch from British Colombia! Even though our hardiness zones are close, there are other criterion that make our planting palettes different. We try to grow Pacific Northwest plants that require elevation, and unfortunately they struggle here! Like we always say, we're just waiting for the science to catch up...Thanks for tuning in and "We'll See You in the Garden!"
Thanks so much for addressign my question! Love your content!
Thanks for your support Mike!!!
I wish I could save this video into a playlist for myself. Is there a setting you can enable?
I have eggplant plants that are being attacked by insects eating their leaves. What can I do that is safe to use while they are flowering so that we dont poison the eggplants?
Thanks for your question! Use Spinosad!! It is organic and does a great job. Spinosad is the best active ingredient you can use on your eggplant... Bonide has it labeled Captain Jacks Dead Bug Brew! Your problem is most Likely Colorado Potato Beetles!! Check out this clip below for more details... - Len ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxejCb_wcsOQNC_Qfe4rudYSllLQwmJ-hE?si=b2eOhRpB7dlfi7K-
I love hibiscus. They're beautiful.
Absolutely!!!!!!! Hardy Hibiscus are amazing!
Just the video I was looking for. Do you happen to know the name of the variegated Hosta you showed? I like your avoidance of certain common names.
Thanks for the question! Maria pulled Patriot Hosta for this video...They are an extremely popular perennial at our Garden Center...Thanks for noticing!
I had the same reaction cause I thought it wasn't glowing at first but until you look closer. The buds glow a lot brighter (perhaps cause the petals overlap) But I have seen others that have been able to make it seem brighter in grow tents or hanging baskets and it was still visible with some ambient light around. I hope they make more plant varieties.
Absolutely @sunlitslumber ! We find that overall general ambient lighting surrounding their environment play a part in our perception level of the glow...It is amazing to see when placed in the right environment...The buds really do resemble fireflies!
Really enjoying your videos, Len! Remember me? Your first Bloomer Bunny?? 🤣🤣🤣Sometimes I know exactly what you’re going to say!! e.g. “up, down, all around!” for the fertilizer numbers! You guys really taught me so much back in the day! Thank you for that!! Miss those days. I’m an old f@rt now!! LOL One of these days I’m going to pop in!! 😊
Hey Vicki! We hope all is well! You just took Len on a trip down memory lane!!!!! We are so glad to see you still connecting with Bloomers after all these years! We look forward to seeing you! ***BTW, we still have the bunny!😁😅***

This was extremely helpful . I have a hot shady patio that has killed So many plants ( I had nothing to do with it, lol ) , and this has pointed me in the direction👍🏻
RIP Rich Emlay
New subscriber here😅
I sure would like to know the plants that are invasive…
Leatherleaf mahonia is invasive in the south, I have one but have not had a problem.
LIKE 👍👍👍👍👍 💗 💗 💗 💗💗 😎😎😎😎
ᵖʳᵒᵐᵒˢᵐ
It would be very helpful to mention the zones for your selections.
Yes. I have no idea if any of these are hardy to southern Ontario zone or not???
🄿🅁🄾🄼🄾🅂🄼 😝
I use sunflower chips and red pepper suet in my feeders. I also have a cranberry nut blend suet that the woodpeckers just love. Enjoy your poscast on UA-cam.
Thanks Martha for your support comment, we appreciate your kind words...Woodpeckers ABSOLUTELY love fruit/nut blends! If you are a looking to see more of a variety of birds, try mixing the blend flavors and see what other types of birds it attracts...We'd love to hear about it! Consider calling in on the Bloomer's in the Garden Hotline at (609) 685-1880. Looking forward to hearing from you!
I absolutely love Begonia’s plants every summer to autumn time , and again enjoy watching this video bcoz it does help by giving me more idea .
Excellent video!
Dead nettles (Lamiums) are very attractive. They are also invasive non-natives, originating in Eurasia.
Not all of them are invasive. The yellow blooming ones definitely are (often called “archangel”) However lamium maculatum is usually well behaved. I’ve got a garden full of native plants but I’ve chosen Lamium “white Nancy” for some dry shade under a silver maple where dandelions, false strawberry, and weeds are trying to take over. I’m hoping this groundcover can out-compete these.
Thanks so much! This was exactly what I needed to find plants for my shady, shady area. Can’t wait to get to the nursery!
What do you mean by planting on moss.
She means 'en masse' = in a group or all together. I think it's French.
She's saying "en masse", French for a large group.
Good channel guys!!
hey there maria! this video is great! you should add hellebores to this list! ❤️🌿 I love the selection you guys have this year. I already bought one last week.
So very helpful. Thank you!!
🤦🏻♂️ the largest they get is 8" not 12" and the tallest I've ever seen was 5' not 6'.
Come to Bloomers during the summer and visit our display gardens and you'll see.
Deer! Deer destroyed my hostas in Dr shade. It’s a long bed. Suggestions please?
How tall/wide do you want the plants to be? Do you want perennials or shrubs?
@@pamelah6431 Thanks so much for responding to me! I have a 5’x20’ bed under mature maple trees and would like shrubs and/or perennials, preferably with a “white” theme, nothing taller than about 4’. This used to be my white garden, mostly wonderful hostas, before deer moved in and chewed them to the ground. I currently have some brunneras, dryopteris ferns, and a few hellebores, all barely surviving. Any and all recommendations would be sincerely appreciated. ❤️
@@constancefaddis8037 what zone are you in?
@@pamelah6431 Thanks for sticking with me! 😃 I’m in Zone 6, officially, but have better luck with plants hardy to Zone 5. Columbus Ohio 43213
@@constancefaddis8037 have you tried any of the ones mentioned in this video yet?
Amazing and beautiful I like it carry on friend
Very nice plants. How can I buy it?
Where can I order your tool pouch, I like it . By the way nice plants
Get it from AM Leonard's website.
Or Felco
@@pamelah6431 thanks
@@thegonzalezs4953 I have the one AM Leo sells that holds a pruner & soil knife. Love it. You can buy it on its own or with their tools. I use a Felco #2 (their version is ok if you're not doing this kind of work often) and the AM Leo deluxe soil knife (which rocks). I think they have one that has a pouch for a folding saw, too. I keep my Silky saw separate in a Corona fabric pouch. Fits into it like a glove, and is less cumbersome than having a big, wide tool pouch on the belt, especially for days when I don't need the saw.
@@pamelah6431 just checked on them , out of stock it says . I guess I’ll have to wait 😊
Yes! A whole show on viburnums would be great!
Very informative and entertaining!
I have a variegated Lamium which is very nice but something is eating holes in the leaves.
Good info.Thanks.
Thank you! Good information. I’m in Sacramento and dry shade is my challenge!
Same! I’m in Sacramento too. I have a north facing porch that gets no sun, only bright light and it is always so hot during our summers. I end up resorting to some houseplants outside instead.
Love your video
i just bought a bunch of plants for my low maintenance/dry shade area and almost all of them are on this list. i'm feeling pretty ashured right now.
So beautiful
Dead nettle is invasive.
Hlw there!!! It's very informative. Thank you.
