  • Thanks for growing with us!
    Today we are talking all about plant supports. First we need to create a way to support the dahlias that Christopher grew from seed. We have devised a method of using beautiful Jardin Stakes from @gardenerssupply and jute twine to make our own version of a hortinova netting. Putting the stakes together is a breeze and once we get them in the ground it is just a matter of stretching the twine from stake to stake. This will keep the dahlias supported but also look great.

    We are also working on trees today. The Tickle Creek Birch from @iselinursery5169 needs a quick adjustment to its stake. After that we are going to take a look around at some of the plant supports we have had great success with. These supports and so much more can be found here:

    Lastly we need to get our Princeton Sentry Ginko tree staked. The west wind has pushed It over and it just looks silly. Using an 8 ft stake we are supporting proper upright growth and the tree looks better immediately!

    You gentlemen are genius! That looks so much better than the flower factory look most gardeners end up with, and you would never have in your garden. A very ingenious method of keeping flowers secure. May I make a small suggestion. Next time black twine might disappear a bit better than green.

    I really like those whimsical stakes. I don't have plants that need them, but just as a decorative element, I might have to get some.
    I have the Jardineer half hoops to support peonies and perennials. (I now have 13 peonies! My favorite.)
    Say, I haven't seen Japanese beetles in my garden this year (Minneapolis ).🤞🏼 Hoping they've moved to another address. Course, it could be because my DA 'Queen of Sweden' roses may have succumbed to our crazy climate. They never seem interested in my traditional shrub roses, 'Therese Bugnet'.

      Oh no! I've heard 🚫 to use those bags because they draw the Japanese beetles to your area. I think they can fly at least a mile.

    Gentlemen,
    Two comments:1) the ugly color of the twine will be bleached out very quickly ( you can also take the unbelievable time to apply hydrogen peroxide to "bleach" it) & 2) you will be so chuffed with yourselves that you did this before the summer gets to" jungle phase" and you have to wade into your precious dahlias to the tune of cracking stems. Also, you may never get to this point but, _the ends of twine sometimes "disappear" clinging somewhere in the abyss of eager foliage. Pulling on said twine usually results in the guillotine you hoped to avoid... Good luck and thanks for the video. Excellent as usual!

    “Team work makes the tree work.” 😂 Can you provide a link or tell us how to get the 8’ stake you used for that ginko? It looks sturdy but easy to remove. We have trees that a previous owner staked with anchored t posts. The not so pretty posts are now impossible to remove because the roots have grown over the anchor. I don’t want to repeat that mistake when I plant new ones!
