      My hydrangeas have lots of leaves. Some leaves get spotted and brow. I have been spraying a plant soap on the leaves and they get better but I noticed the spotted leaves are coming back. I live in Alabama and it is still kind of warm here. Can you please give me any help you can. Thanks so much for your videos. Linda from Birmingham

    I know this video is 2 years old but I just have to still say THANK YOU for showing the final clip of cutting the plants back hard! I SO need this reminder that the plants may look sparse for a bit but it's worth it! ❤

  • @barbll000
    @barbll000 5 років тому +25

    I've noticed that the Proven Winner's website gives the info on when and how to cut back. Their website is really good. I always hated how my Salvia would fall over and I didn't know I could cut it back after blooming. Now I'll check the site regularly.
    I'm learning so much from your videos Laura and Aaron. Bless you both for sharing.

    @seriouslyreally5413 6 років тому +22

    Oh my gosh! the hard cutback section is SO helpful! I always treated these very same tall perennials as "light shearing" just to tidy up my garden but still had to live with their floppy post-bloom gangliness which I still hated. Sometimes I gathered them up around the base with a little twine and (hidden under that foliage) and closed up the floppy centers but didnt know I could safely cut them to the ground mid season for regrowth! Thank you so much!!

  • @lindadistel3643
    @lindadistel3643 5 років тому +30

    I asked these questions a few days ago at local garden center and they couldn’t answer them! So glad to find this video and will head outside with clippers and fertilizers. I’m discovering these older videos but in the right months are still helpful.

Of course, only if you have the time. We will be happy with whatever you give us, but i just thought I'd share the suggestion! We love you!!

    I live in zone six and this video is so timely. I was wondering about cutting back my catmint. For the past couple of years I’ve deadheaded my candy dianthus but I’m thinking of doing as you did here by the handful. I’ve gotten to where I just start regretting July because everything that was so beautiful just isn’t anymore. So, cleaning it up and putting a couple of hardscape focal points out to carry the blank spots through until the mums come in is my plan. Thanks for the pruning lesson I’m more confident going forward.

    @OmaAdored 7 років тому

    I'd like long videos sometimes (like garden tours and such), BUT I like the way that many of your videos are focused on very specific topics. When I'm searching for information for a project, I can almost always find it in one of your videos (you title them so well). I can count on your videos being thorough but short enough that I can dash out to the garden and use what you've just taught me. (Also, I'm highly distractible and get easily pulled down rabbit holes if there's too much in one video!). Bottom line for me: BRAVO!! Keep up the great job - I trust your judgement!

    I went right out and did a hard cutdown on my coreopsis and other perennials that were in survival mode because of this heat. I transformed the brown dead looking bush into small green two inch stems...much better! Since I fertilized it last week I just watered and added mulch around it. Hopefully, it will come back. Thank you.

    I smiled watching this episode; first because I just watched you weekly update in 2023 where you and Aaron discussed how much you dislike dianthus because of the short flowering time coupled with having to look at the swathe of dead flower heads, so you no longer have it in your garden. Secondly, to see your interactions with the sadly long departed Dexter. Russell and Douglas don’t always have the same manners ❤
