I MISS screening plant videos...since you moved to your current house there's hardly been any screening plant videos. I bought several plants you had at your old house..thank you so much for this video!!
By the way, thank you for showing the entire fence, top to bottom. It is very helpful for a regular home owner to know what to expect. Twenty feet in my mind and twenty feet sitting by my house don't really match up.
It is hard sometimes to guess those things!
Yes, I agree with Miryana.....thanks for showing the entire fence (and entire tree for that matter) top to bottom. I don't know Jim, why but it really helped. Probably a perspective thing.
I’ve been waiting my whole life for a privacy video like this
Some of your most informative videos, for me, have been these analyses of fully (or mostly) grown evergreen hedges. There are so many cultivars, for many it can be difficult to even find a photograph of what they will look like in 5, 10, 50 years.
Privacy is very important to me. Fences are ok but shrubs and trees are better
Love this video, we are hoping to add screening plants this year and seeing them with many years growth is very helpful.
Always enjoy the screening plant videos. Thanks for sharing.
Great examples …so hard to choose :) but I need to create a little screening so I am glad to see more mature specimens
I was in Fuquay a couple of weeks ago to go to a local art gallery. If I had known they were there I would have definitely went by. Next time I am in the area I would love to go buy some things for my landscape!!!
I've seen Golden Mop False Cypress in my area used often, but to your point maintained as a small mound, nice to see it used here as a screen.
This was super helpful. Thank you!
I recently moved to the Southeast and am having to rethink planting completely from my previous decades spent up North.
Really like these videos focused on a need and the plants that can help meet that need. Thanks.
Another great video packed with valuable info. SO helpful to see the mature shrubs/trees! And thanks for another visit to my home town.
Fantastic video. Very informative and appreciate you showing the perspectives from below and above. Thank you.
Wow what a place. I’ll have to check it out.
Thank you also for putting the name of the plant and zones up with each. I can do a screenshot and know what I’m looking for when shopping for plants. I live in zone 9, so the zone info is really helpful.
Thanks, Jim!
Thank you for the tour!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks! That was excellent.
hi bought a few oaklands . its nice to see the plants fully grown to determine placement in yard.
I appreciate seeing mature growth evergreens. I have a solid privacy fence but a two story neighbor, so a thin base cover is ok for me. Thanks!
When I saw the title, I thought I could get a privacy fence in 10 minutes! 😊 That’s some fast growth…
You have had a video on almost every subject/question I have had about my own property and garden! I also like to the vids with NCSU Arboretum. I am in midlands SC (8a), but I watch their Zoom webinars frequently. Really need to get up there for a visit!
Jim, love this video. I’ve saved and referred to it a lot-thank you for covering this topic so well. I’m in 7b and plan to incorporate a lot of these evergreens in our 3-acre lot. What is the best all-around fertilizer to use in initial planting? Holly-tone? Thanks in advance.
Missed you Sunday. Thank you❣️
I'll have the q and a video up tomorrow or Wednesday. Thanks for following along.
Like the spartan and golden mop // trying out skyrocket juniper and purple hopseed and Privet. zone 8b
Thanks for the video. I planted a row of about 30 Nellie Stevens. It’s nice to see them mature and limbed up. Gives me confidence in my decision of going with Nellie Stevens. Mixed in a couple Edward Stevens to get more berries for the birds!
Same here except I only have 1 Nellie planted in a very strategic spot to block nosy neighbors. I planted her really young and she has been bursting with growth so I’m excited to see the full grown ones in this video also. I do hope my Nellie Stevens gets large soon!
Thank you great video!
Thanks for watching!
Hey Jim, you missed the castle spire hollies a couple times there. They are great upright blue hollies that don't get very wide and take a long time to outgrow a space, if ever.
Thank you for this video. I intend to reach out to you for a consultation soon.
This is so helpful!!! Would the holly options be best for wind screening? We are in oklahoma and have moved out to a property with no wind or privacy screening. The wind has been terrible ever since we got here (like sustained 50mph wind at times), but we don’t want to block our sunset view which is the most amazing part of the landscape. 🤪
Great video. How old would you estimate those Nellie Stevens that were limbed-up? Just curious as I just planted a screen of about 6 of them.
One thing I don't understand is I keep looking at all these screening plants on UA-cam, but you can see right through them, what type of screening plant is that.
Hello, I was wondering if you could go into more details about "establishing" plants. How much time a tree, shrubs, & perennials need to become established. What's the timeline? How much water does each kind of plant need?, I know you cannot be specific about the water because every place/zone is different but a general idea? It would be nice to have some kind of idea what established means when all the gardeners are saying you got to keep it watered well until it's established but I'm sure I'm not the only one that is wondering when that would be. Is it a month, is it 6 months, is it a year, is it 2 years? If I can clearly see that a plant has actually put on growth, is it now established? Thank you so much for your time.
Basically, generally speaking, a gallon pot plant will need at least one full year to become established. If you fall plant, that plant won't need watered much the following fall and winter, so it's only going to to take about 9 months of tending to establish. This is for landscape plants. Fruiting plants need much more attention. Hope this helps.
2 years is more realistic for proper establishment where you can mostly leave a plant alone if it's in a happy environment.
Thank you @@happity
I am considering a hazel hedge (zone 5b) along the top of a bank, in dappled or late afternoon sunshine. I can’t find too much info on this plant on-line, and would love to hear any thoughts you might have on it. The fact that it might colonize down the bank appeals to me, and I am not really interested in producing a crop of hazel nuts but would be happy to leave them for the wildlife. Thanks for any input you might be able to give.
I find camelia to be a great component of my screen.
So many good options. So hard to know what to use.
Jim hope you are feeling better.
I am. Thank you!
❤
Which are the fastest growing to 15 feet in zone 7 ?
Thank you! I’m looking for a really dense evergreen in zone 6 that gets 8-10 tall but only 4-8 wide. I would be willing to prune annually to keep something 8 feet if it would be healthy with that pruning. Also have alkaline soil but I’m willing to amend. What do you think? BTW I LOVE your videos! So helpful!!!
Try either Spartan or Taylor Junipers
@@ejohnson3131 thank you!!
Also a Hicksii yew is an option. They like a little afternoon shade though I believe.
@@hobbitlady7568 thank you!!!
If you like varigated, instead of trees, maybe Olive Martini Eleagnus? Jim did a video on them, and I have some planted..they are beginning to grow now after rooting in.
Do you have screening plants for shade you could share
@Hortube, I would love to see a full grown Olive Martini Eleagnus. I have 3 planted, based on your recommendations, and one in a pot, tree forming that. They are about a year old now, and definitely filling out.
Hi! If you see this, how are your eleagnus doing? I just planted 4 to add to my mixed screening plants (zone 8b in N Central FL). Thanks!!
@@julieh2935 Hi Julie! We just moved from that location .and brought the one potted up, amd im tree forming that one. The others are doing well and are really beginning to take off..they are close to being 4ft tall..2 1/2 ft wide..but i do believe this Spring and Summer there will be some really good growth. We also planted Blue Arrow beside of the Martinis for color contrast and texture..I will miss that yard, but not the neighbors junky shed and his collection of roadside freebies.
@@kinfolks2u Thanks for replying! I am encouraged that they did well for you. I may tree form one, too, that’s a great idea! I’ll have to check out the Blue Arrow to see if they’d be a good fit for my area. Take care and thanks!
Great video - such useful, valuable info!! Is there a way to identify a 'Dwarf' plant by looking at it. I've had many landscape plants that are 'dwarf' and grow huge. Red Loropetalum is my favorite example. I need to buy some of your consultation :-) I live in 7B in western wake Co.
I can usually tell by the growth habit. Vertical growth in a loropetalum is a definite sign that it gets very big
Thank you jim. Do cryptomeria shed like that due to illness or not so perfect conditions? Does cryptomeria radicans behave the same?
They all shed a little on the interior. The bottom branching is likely due to a lack of light on those branches.
On the Osmanthus fragrans, was it the zone information that was blown out or did you put a cultivar there? It was white on white/gray.
Zone info - 7b-11
Can you list the plants in order please. Some of the lighting cuts off some of the words in video.
What do you think about Japanese Blueberry?
what is your opinion if many of these plants are highly invasive?
Would you agree that using several of the same tree or shrub for privacy screening may not be advisable due to possible spread of plant diseases, etc.? I need to replace several Leyland Cypress damaged by recent weather and would like to plant trees that are more disease resistant.
Yes, I have a video about that. A mix is the best.
Hey Jim, can you help me out about how to get rid of poison ivy ? I have a lot of it here & there on my property causing me terrible breakouts every year 😫
For my yard the only way I was able to get rid of it was to pull it out roots & all. I am very sensitive to it so in addition to wearing 2 pairs of latex gloves I also wear sweatproof sunscreen when dealing with it. The sunscreen adds a physical barrier on your skin that allows the ivy oils to be washed off before it has a chance to irritate your skin. Good luck!
@@ashleighnelson512 wow - good info about the protection part - I think I tried pulling before, but there’s just too many 😐
👋😃
i have a burning question: of all the main players--thuja green giant, nellie, etc--which large evergreen is the most dense? i'm trying to choose the right plant to muffle sound from a road and of course, create a visual screen. but mostly i want the sound of traffic to be diminished. please write back. thanks.
If you have the room and a fast grower look at Carolina sapphire trees. Our way outpaced the green giants and Oakleaf hollies we planted
Struggle to compare suitablity of Illicium Florida Sunshine to Ligustrum Florida Sunshine.
All of these look like they get lots of sun. My yard, like many older neighborhoods in raleigh, is pretty much surrounded by large, deciduous trees. Tulip poplars, oaks and sweet gums. So finding things that can tolerate the shade and also form a nice, thick, 20' tall hedge has been a challenge. The house behind me is hideous so I've planted a bunch of Nellie Stevens Hollies, Alta Magnolias, Camellia Alabama Beauty and Chindo Viburnum. I hope they'll some day completely block the view of that ugly house. But not sure how it'll work out considering the large shade trees all around.
It sounds beautiful!
Yes yes yes block the neighbors plz
Did you have covid in this video you don't look or sound sick
No, it was over a month ago. I'm pretty much over it. Shooting a video in the morning.
