SUMMER COLOUR FOR POTS & PATIOS - LONG-LASTING COLOUR ALL SUMMER
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 чер 2024
- Welcome to Adam’s Gardening Guides.
I love my summer patio, creating displays in pots and containers to add colour and interest right through the summer months.
Container gardening provides flexibility too as it allows you to move pots around to vary the display month by month, moving plants into centre stage when at their very best but away to provide a supporting role at other times.
Whether you want pots of lilies for fragrance, summer bedding plants for their long flowering performance, luscious foliage features like hostas or clematis, agapanthus, alstroemeria, succulents, hydrangeas and more, you’ll find plants of every colour, shape and form to choose from in this video.
And if you have other gardening topics you’d like me to cover in future videos do mention them in the comments section too.

Oh my goodness!!! Didn’t realize lily pollen was dangerous for cats! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!🐈❤️
Yes, it’s worth being cautious growing lilies if cats visit your garden.
One of the best, if not the best gardening video I ever watched.
You really have a great taste for gardening ,great knowledge about the plants and presentation is beautiful.
Thank you 💐
That’s very kind of you. As you can tell, I put a tremendous amount of time and effort writing, planning, filming and editing my videos (all single handed) and love it when viewers enjoy the results. Thank you!
You have a beautiful flowers collections 🌹 it's amazing 🤩 and you have a great knowledge I am learning your gardening tips thank you so much ❤ god bless you ❤️
So nice of you. Do check out some of my other videos too.
Envy this garden is absolutely stunning
So pleased you like it. Thank you.
Love the purple petunias midnight sky. So beautiful
Pleased to hear you like this petunia. Happy gardening!
@@Adams-Gardening-Guides I'm not yet sure if I like that night sky petunia, but I'm sure I will learn to love it, if I should challenge myself a little. I couldn't help laughing though, when you openly, and honestly admitted your feeling towards it. Maybe in a future video your will tell us, how you absolutely love it, and then I tell you, I will roll on the floor laughing. Because it can happen, I will keep my eyes open for your videos. Thanks.
I love the way you insert the small pot to make a prefect size holes to plant them in the bigger pots❤
Yes, such a simple but helpful idea.
What a lovely video! Great plant recommendations for the summer. They bring great joy. I am a fan of colorful gardens. Yours is one of my favorites. Your instructions are clear and useful and your accent is sweet melody. I think the Petunia night sky will suit a mysterious-themed garden like combining mushrooms + carnivorous plants. It is just a thought that came to my mind. But I did like those varieties. And the video quality is great. Thank you💐
Thanks so much! 😊 delighted to hear you enjoyed my video. Happy gardening!
This is just what I have been looking for. My garden has been devastated by continual heavy rain for over 9 months. Most plant and my lawn have been under water and consequently have died. At the moment I am having drainage put in and the garden landscaped with artificial grass and raised borders. So now I am also looking to not only having plants in my borders but having plants in tubs and pots. Thank you for your advice on planting and showing the wide variety of colourful and structural plants that are available. I am now looking forwards to a whole new way of gardening.
So sorry to hear your garden has been flooded. I hope your new developments help and my video has provided some colourful options for you to consider.
Thank you for replying. I love your ideas.
I really appreciate the long form video. It's like a tour with a very knowledgeable patient tour guide😊. Thanks a lot..
So pleased to hear you enjoy my long-form videos. They do take much longer to produce but I think these videos are more comprehensive and useful.
No Words 💚💚💚💚
I had to laugh because Night Sky and Green with Envy are 2 petunias I get almost every year. 😂 I love them for their bold uniqueness. However, I did not do any petunias this year - I don't love the stickiness involved with deadheading petunias. Cheers from America! Great video, as always - emailing to my friends and family so they can benefit from your great tips and variety ideas.
Lovely to hear from you, and I knew there would be gardeners getting in touch that loved these varieties. We’re so lucky that the plant breeders and nurseries provide such a wonderful range of varieties for us all to choose from aren’t we.
Many thanks for sharing with your friends too.
Wishing you all a wonderfully colourful summer garden!
A most excellent video, thank you.

Lovely, and good information. I just subscribed.😊🌸
Thank you! Hope your summer garden is bursting with colour too.
I love the Night Sky and Green with Envy. They are so pretty to get a second and third looking.
Three or four years ago I buy a Clematis Taiga. It is also green and lila. At first I buy it for the great shapes but now I love this colour combination. If it's works or not😊
Isn't 'Taiga' a lovely clematis. I haven't grown it but do love it. Perhaps one day I'll find a spot for it.
Amazing video thank you so much for all your advice. 🦋
Totally beautiful .
Thank you! 😊
It's easy to arrange flower plants, only money is needed. I would highly appreciate gardens that comes from a scrap. But yeah, nice pick ups of flowers.
Very loving and beautiful.
Thank you so much! Enjoy your summer garden.
Great video! Some lovely ideas!
Thanks. There was so much more I could have included, but that will have to wait for another time!
Thank you for simple to follow video. I love your hostas in pots. I've got one divided into two in the border and a new one this year in a pot. So far they've resisted slugs. 🐌
Aren’t hostas lovely. I hope the slugs and snails stay away!
👍👍👍👍😍
❤❤❤
Oh how beautiful! Your garden is drenched in color. Im in love.tfs
Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous 🎉
Thank you! 😊
Hi thanks for that,I have a question for you,when you grow your roses do you cover the graft of the rose or leave it just above the soil,😊
Glad you enjoyed my video. On your roses question I was always taught NOT to cover the graft/budding point on roses or other plants, shrubs, trees, fruits, etc. below this point is the rootstock, and the roots of this provide the support and sustenance for the variety grafted/budded above. I always keep this point ABOVE soil level and never bury it.
@@Adams-Gardening-Guides thanks I’ve always done the same glad I’m not wrong.
How do you keep them winter time? They are so beautiful in pots... love your garden..
Some pots of the hardy varieties like hosta stay outside, some pots like Eucomis and agapanthus are moved to my unheated greenhouse to provide some protection, while some of the tender things like petunias are discarded and added to my compost heap. I try and keep and protect as much as I can.
Beautiful plants, thanks for sharing, it would be nice if you mention the zone they grow thanks
I live and garden in England, in a county called Cambridgeshire, and about 90 miles north of London. We don't tend to refer to climate zones here but I think my area would be defined as Zone 7. Hope this helps.
I would love to know what the fuchsia marble sized berry looking plant at the 53:38 time is Please? Just Beautiful!
This is a plant I grow for its winter berries called Pernettya mucronata or also sold as Gaultheria mucronata. There are varieties in different colours. Some varieties are only female so will only produce berries in their second year if they are pollinated by a male, but other varieties are self-fertile. Aren’t they lovely.
Deve ser muito interessante,,,, é pena não ter tradução em português
Can you tell us your fertilizing schedule?
Hi Pamela. You'll see through the video how I regularly mix slow-release fertiliser granules into the compost at planting time, so do try this as it removed the need to develop a feeding regime.
I do sometimes put a hose-end fertiliser dilutor onto my hose as this creates a liquid feed. The product I use is the Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder.
If no fertiliser is mixed into compost then I would recommend feeding plants with a liquid feed, possibly a high-potash tomato feed, every 10-14 days.
Can you show me the name of purpose that you use for pots please. Thank you so much.
Do you mean compost? I buy my compost from local garden centres, and always look for offers. Choose what we call a Multi-Purpose Compost. I choose peat-free types, and sometimes they include an added ingredienr called John Innes that contains loam that makes teh compost more nutritious.
Hello❤ love your pots and flowers. I didnt know cooper tape could help with snales. Do you have any suggestion to snales in the garden? Love from portugal
You’ll find masses of control ideas online, so do check. Personally I try and encourage predators…. I actually found a frog among my strawberries today while picking fruit so this would be helping. I also pop out with a torch every evening and do a quick tour of the garden and usually catch a few. Beer traps and similar traps can help. I place upturned saucers around my crops and check underneath them each morning. They often have slugs under them. Hope these suggestions help.
Thank you so much.
Why are petunia plants sticky
I’m not sure what benefit having sticky leaves and stems would have, but plants develop the way they do for a very good reason. It does make dead heading slightly more difficult, but it is essential. I wonder if any other viewers have an explanation. Do post if you do.
