#augustblooms #ipm #zone9garden
Crepe Myrtle are blooming almost in full bloom in L.A. zone 10b and it’s always around the 1st day of school for us. My girls’ school is lined with them and it’s a welcoming feeling driving down the “cotton candy” trees as we call them.
Hi Janey Would love an update of the girls garden from their schools. Love your videos!
Here in New Hampshire zone 5b, perennials doing well in August are Rudbeckia / Black-eyed Susan, Coneflower, Fringed Bleeding Heart, Great Blue Lobelia, Red Cardinal Flower, Hydrangeas, Serendipity Alliums, Roses, Veronica / Speedwell and Joe Pye Weed. Happy gardening, everyone! 😊🌸
Hello fellow NH gardener !
@@Chefabs911 Hello! The weather is finally cooling down here! Time to start dividing our perennials, friend! 🥰 Yippee!
Sounds stunning, Jean from Oklahoma Panhandle USDA ZONE 6b, have a great day
@budgetgardeningvita. That is so similar to me here in Scotland. The only thing is that the Veronica for me is more just spring time and then it’s done for the year. I absolutely love Rudbeckia, I have divided mine so much this year and they are all looking great. Happy gardening! 🥰🌸🌱
Hello from New Brunswick Canada zone 4. Blooming in the garden right now are Rubeckia, Coneflower, tall Phlox, Sedums, Liatris, Russian Sage and Hydrangeas 😊
So close to 80,000 subscribers!! So happy for you and the entire DPWR Team!!
Good morning Janey. Just a thought, you might want to consider removing the stakes on the willow. the trunk needs to be able to move with the wind to develop the strong taper at the base to hold it up. Long term staking does not allow this and the tree will always have to be staked.
Good point. Maximum one year with staking is what I've been told. And the stake should allow some movement.
By far, the best annual for our hot, hot Texas heat and humidity is the Vinca. It is gorgeous all summer long into fall. Super easy care, with no insect or disease issues. Your garden is beautiful.
I'm in the Houston area and, YES, no disease - no fuss - and DEER RESISTANT!!
Your willow tree has grown nicely ! Will be beautiful when provides some shade.
Vinca is a thug, borderline invasive in many zones.
Here in Southern California zone 10a, my lantana is thriving! It’s the only thing that doesn’t look stressed or crispy. 🥴😮💨🔥
In Indiana zone 6 A, my Rudbeckia, my Echinacea, my salvia, my Daisy Mae daisies, my zinnias, my Roses, my Clematis and my sedum are all in bloom. Oh, and my Hibiscus is blooming profusely. All of my flowers are blooming profusely.Oh, and my morning glory. I forgot about my little morning glory.❤❤
The yarrows spent blooms make a great autumn color! Perhaps adding in other fall colors in that area might help you like it a little more, it is a really pretty plant.
I love the vibrant marigolds! Your garden is large yet gorgeous.
I have the peach yarrow also and not a fan either. After it blooms it seems to turn brown very quickly! I will be removing it! Blooming in my garden right now are my 30 hydrangeas, blacked eye Susan, coneflowers, carpet roses, serendipity alliums, dahalias, hibiscuses, plus my annuals. I am in zone 6b Southern Illinois.
'Hot Lips' Pink Turtlehead (Chelone) just started blooming zone 6. Beautiful! 💮
I’m in zone 10a and right now my prime blooms are coming from Pentas, Mexican Sunflowers, Starry Rosinweed, Porterweed and Firebush. Those are butterfly favorites too.
That goat snorting is hilarious! Love it when you show us your friendly neighbors. 😂
Zone 7 Oklahoma City, my tall phlox, Mexican sunflowers, lantana and zinnias, Turks caps and hyacinth bean are all doing well. I planted morning glories for the first time and they are blooming.. The hummingbirds are very happy. Love your channel.
One plant to cover SO many months are hydrangeas! I have Quick Fire, little quick fire, Dragon Baby (adorable dwarf) and so many others that have been in bloom for months and will be in bloom for the rest of the season!
I know when we say blooming garden, we think of many pretty flowers understandably but here in my Mid-Atlantic 8B garden, the Joy Pye Weed and ornamental grasses are kicking butt and taking names. 😂
I live in Davis and care for a couple of gardens in Woodland. Bloomers right now are Salvia patens, Salvia Mystic Spires, Salvia uliginosa, Ruellia brittoniana, Wedelia texana, Cuphea 'Vermillionare', Limonium perezii, Grindelia camporum, Calliandra californica, Bulbine frutescens 'Hallmark', Coreopsis grandiflora, Erigeron karvinskianus, Verbena bonariensis, Gaillardia artistata, Micromeria fruticosa, Gaura lindheimeri. You might want to consider planting a Hibiscus syriacus "Blushing Bride" behind your planting of the Pink Iceberg rose and Panicum, it would bloom most of the summer and the light pink double flowers with a maroon eye would go very well with the pink rose and blue grass. If you are having trouble finding bloomers at the larger retail outlets, Morningsun Herb Farm in Vacaville has far more than herbs, and if you've never been there, it will make your jaw drop in amazement, it's sort of our local Annie's Annuals.
I do this in Saskatchewan zone 3 because of hot dry winds it freshens my garden and also it rinses off the smoke that coats your leaves ❤
In central Illinois zone 5b/6a, my David Austen roses, my Rose of Sharons, my sedum, and my Purple Pugster butterfly bush are all in bloom. And my Little Quick Fire hydrangea is such a beautiful shade of mauve right now.
I'm in zone 6b and zinnias are blooming wonderfully, cleome, marigolds, lobelia, coneflowers, salvias and my rose is putting out another burst of blooms!
Here in zone six PA we have butterfly bushes, hydrangeas, millennium allium, flocks, black eyed Susan, Russian sage, salvia, Veronica, roses.
Janie i laughed when you said sneeze with the goats. The deer will snort as well to tell their friends someone is around. I learned a new word. Umber for the umbrella bloom. I have heat and humidity and still have to worry about spider mites. I also have drip and do not water overhead and still have powdery mildew 😢
I too liven a rural area near Davis, CA (Zone 9b). For the lat 2 years,I have given all of my drip-irrigated plants a quick shower during when its particularly hot and I've had virtually no spider mites oe aphids and just a few white flies. The added benefits are the plants aren't covered in dust and they are a bit cooler during the hottest part of the day. I had been worried about residue from our hard well water, but that hasn't been a problem.
I have marigolds around my mailbox and they reseed so well that they've felt more like perennials here in FL 10a.
My best August bloom this year is the Blue Butterfly Pea vine in my raised container trellis. I just posted a video on my channel about the herbal tea you can make from the flowers that starts out indigo blue and changes to purple or pink if you add acid like lemon juice (it reacts to pH so you can also add baking soda to turn it back to blue or even turquoise)! Super fun and tasty and it has healthful antioxidants!
Hi Janey! I'm on the south shore of Long Island, NY, Zone 7a, and right now, my Firelight Tidbit Hydrangeas, Echinacea, Alliums, and Sedum are all looking beautiful. I have a Dwarf Alberta Spruce that suffers from spider mites most years. At those times, Insecticidal Soap works well. I love watching you every morning with my coffee ☕️!
Dear Janey! Here in Alaska zone four my geraniums have finally started to bloom in earnest! They were planted from seed in my garage in March put outside at the end of May and the first bloom was July 30. Now August 22 they are just beautiful!!!!!! (Sigh of contentment) 😊. Our first frost will be here in September. Therefore many of these plants will be coming indoors with me!
Morning Janey. Here in zone 5b in Hamilton, ON the echinacea, hydrangea, rudbekia, purple fountain grass, Niagara Falls panecum and sedum are looking great. Been a little cooler this week feeling more like fall, but warming back up for the weekend and long weekend next week. 🌲🌳🍂🍁
👋 fellow Hamiltonian... I live in Waterdown
Chelone obliqua 'Tiny Tortuga' red turtlehead cultivar - a perfect August / September flowering plant - harding in your zone 9. I found this last year at a garden center, and fell in love with it. It just started blooming this week (3rd week in August - above Philadelphia, PA). This will be a wonderful August or September month plant for your garden.
I have some glorious yellow marigolds bouncing color around my flower garden
I just planted "Hot Lips" Turtlehead for the first time a couple weeks ago, and it's getting ready to bloom! I'm in zone 5B Northern Illinois. It's a nice upright perennial late-season blooming through fall, sun/part sun 2-4' H x 1.5 - 2.5' W, Zones 3-8 and attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Also my roses & lavender are continuing to bloom! Little Lime Hydrangeas are starting to go rosy and ready to cut/dry. I just made a wreath with them! Quick Fire Fab hydrangeas are a gorgeous pink! Cut flowers in bloom: snapdragons, zinnias, bachelors buttons, salvia, celosia, amaranth, cosmos & delphiniums. Teddy Bear Sunflowers just about to bloom, after losing so many other sunflowers to the birds! I hope you will come to Dekalb for Proven Winners again one day Janey, and if you do, please come visit my garden! Anne @MartinHouseFlowers 👩🏻🌾💚
Good morning my friend Janey 🌺 .The plants of August are so pretty and I love how you arranged them in the garden . My August plants jasmine stephanotis ,
mandevilla , vinca , bougainvillia . Have a great day . 🌺🌻🌺
I have the skyscraper salvias -- pink and orange -- the hummingbirds LOVE THEM!!!!
Manitoba Zone 3b; Lupine, some Hosta’s, Veronica and some flowers still on my Shasta daisy’s and wild daisys still blooming, Monkshood.
6b- echinacea, rubeckia, blanket flowers are all doing amazing
In my zone 10b, zinnias, cosmos and feverfew are blooming nicely now. A bit of lisianthus still hanging on. Some reblooming on my roses as well. The hydrangeas are fading, but still beautiful! I've cut several of them to dry.
Thanks for the info on the spider mites! Your garden is looking beautiful! ❤M
Janey, a few carrot or apple treats in your pocket could help you make friends with the goaties. They also like banana peels.
Animal Crackers! My next door neighbor has a goat farm. They turn their noses up at apple slices but Animal Crackers…!!! (The mini horses say “good, more apples for me!”)
8a...Veronica, Stonecrop, Shasta daisies, Lambs ear.....looking great!!
Hi Janey! Regarding the spider mites… a gal from California commented on one of my videos sharing that she installs misters within her drip system to help prevent them! I thought that was so smart… she’s using the same idea you are, but I thought the mister is a great idea especially because the mites tend to go under the leaves. 👍🏻
Cool options for the “now” 🌷🦋😀
Hi Jenny! Love your channel and watch daily. Im in central Iowa 5b. Right now, my gardens are filled with blooming Rose of Sharon, Vermillionare, several varieties of Agastache, Miss Molly, hydrangeas, and gorgeous coneflower, blanket flowers and blackeyed susan vine. This is my best garden I've ever raised and I'm 65. Your channel has been so helpful! Thank you Janey for "teaching an old dog new tricks" in gardening. Blessings to you, Jason and your girls!
Whatever happened with the barn cats?
I've been wondering that too.
Beautiful addition to your garden! Maybe marigolds will reseed themselves for next year and you will enjoy blooms again!
August in south Texas is a "just forget it" month for me. I have a hard enough time with water restrictions and temps above 100 every day.
Dahlias in the right spot (little bit of afternoon protection) would be a perfect option!
Good morning. I know that you like the measuring tape, however is gardening all about putting plants and flowers and shrubs about the space that they will become but you all so want the impact and showiness of the plants in the garden. I plant somewhat about the spacing that they say however with some give or take go with it. Your gardens are stunning and gorgeous and I love how it coming along. Enjoy the rest of your day.
I too am a random gardener - I give it a best guess and plant ... do whatever makes you happy !!!
Hey Janey!! Have you tried pentas? I know they are an annual, but here in hot, hot Southern NJ (record heat this summer) the pentas really take off late July all through August. No deadheading, gorgeous flowers and I absolutely love their dark green, deeply veined leaves (reminds me of heliotrope leaves). I first planted pentas last year, and they were the unsung hero of my late summer garden!
Here in zone 7B, my Serendipity Allium, Pugster Butterfly Bush and Luminary Opalescence Phlox have all done amazing throughout August. Can’t say enough good things about this particular phlox. It’s probably my favorite perennial.
The space coming along nicely. Butterfly bushes, asters and anemones are in peak bloom now for me in zone 5.
Your space is large and can handle more shrubs
love how your sun hat gives you sparkly freckles....also love watching you plant ....especially when you bring out the measuring tape lol
Pretty. North Texas zone 8b blooming now in August. Obedient plant, canna lilies and tall garden phlox. 😊
I love marigolds, my favorite is the orange.
Can’t believe schools are already starting 😮
We are in TX, temperature today 114. Our garden is closed till next year❤
Hi Janey! Thanks for all the tips.
New Jersey, Zone 6-7. My salvia is gorgeous right now!
I grew yarrow from seed. They usually bloom all summer. This year, something came and ate them all to the stems. My plants are usually over 5 feet tall. They were eaten back down to the ground. I'm guessing some kind of caterpillar.
I like how you love animals. I like your adorable attitude to animals. That was cute when you showed your neighbor’s goat 🫶
Black eyed Susans and Phlox are still blooming
Here in August our Minnesota zone 4 gardens really shine the annuals can’t get any prettier our hydrangeas of all kinds are in full bloom and the alliums are keeping pollinators busy. Anyone that planted their dahlias around Mother’s Day are seeing blooms and cutting for bouquets.
Hardy Hibiscus are gorgeous here in eastern NC zone 8 (hot & humid)!
Zone 9b So Cal. Blooming now are roses, dahlias, marigolds and echinacea
Morning Everyone 🥰
My Sunset Hyssop is so pretty right now! It was planted last fall and it was the LAST thing to come up in my garden this past spring. I thought the winter killed it, but NO! The Autumn Joy Sedum is also gorgeous these days.
My calibrachoas are still going strong, my (baby) iceberg rose is producing lots of flowers, my zinnias and alyssum are looking good, and my Superbena Sparkling Amethyst is holding up very well! 🥰💐
Hi Janey, Ligularia dentata or common name: leopard plant zones 3-8. This plant has great foliage. I do not keep mine in full sun just speckled sun all day. I am in a 7a zone ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m in zone 9a which is very similar to your growing area only very humid living near New Orleans. Pink muhly grass would be a good choice for you bc of your love of grasses and the color pink. It looks like cotton candy and blooms late summer Sept through Nov. Hope this is the year mine blooms! Cheap and widely available. Mine came from Home Depot. You’ll love this.
Pugster Blue Butterfly bush! I have 6 of them and they are absolutely gorgeous for months, but especially now (South Zone 8A)
those marigolds will drop seed and reseed themselves- in a way they will come back next season by winter raining season- easy to grow in dry zone 10b for us
Our 5b/6a IL garden is looking tired right now. i We do have blooming plants...roses, sedum, catmint, Echinacea, black eyed susan, aster, Japanese Anemones, Turtlehead, hydrangeas, Joe Pye, Rrussian Sage, allium, and Phlox. I think we will have an early Fall, some trees are already getting some color.
Janey I see the Mexican Bird of Paradise blooming in the Phoenix metro. It’s so pretty but thorny too.
You’re garden is such a radiant blend of colors and textures ❤
agastache also in full bloom for me now. It loves the sun.
When both of you go to garden center, Challenge Jason to pick plants for you, this way he will learn❤
Trimming your yarrow will cause it to rebloom also look into what medicinal properties yarrow has and you may end up loving it!!! I grow now for pollinators and medicines I can make and it’s easy!!
Iron weed blooms in August with purple flowers in zone 7b
I just learned about iron weed! It's beautiful in cut flowers. Like a purple baby's breath like filler. Amazing in a zinnia flower bouquets 💜
Rose of Sharon ( a hibicus)in 7b (old growing zone). Mine r in standard. They' re a "BRING ON THE HEAT!" Beautie😊
i have noticed that you dont have any grass would the centre island look nice with grass and a few shade trees and then you maybe could add a couple of park benches oh nice it would be to spread a blanket in the summer and have a picnic or sit on a park bench under a lovely tree sipping a beverage..... just a thought
I have been using your advice on watering for spider mites and it really has been helping. Thank you!
Hi Janey
It's going to look great cant wait for fall garden tour, thank you. Have a great rest of the day.
👋 🙂 🌻🏵🌸
I’m zone 9b in central FL and my garden and neighborhood is loaded with ‘zone 10a’ plants. You just gotta try it. There’s always warm microclimates around. Pentas are a beautiful plant in my garden that are on their third year for me when they’re annuals elsewhere.
But the marigolds are super easy to save seeds, so you can direct sew those seeds next late spring/early summer and you'll still have them in next year's Aug garden if you wish.
Sedum would have been a good choice. Unless it's not good in your zone. I'm in 6b and mine is starting to bloom now. It will be covered with pollinators soon ❤❤❤
Bet the goat wants to get into your “delicious “ looking garden😊 Great insights 😊
Hi, I am Laura from Helena, MT which is zone 4b. Heliopsis “Bleeding Heart”and Helenium “Mardi Gras” are blooming in my garden.
Janey you need rudebekia! It’s doing great in 9b houston and it’s been 100 plus temps for weeks here and they come in oranges and yellows. I’m definitely planting more next year
9b far northern CA, Lantana lavender is doing great, the extreme summer heat has finally backed off.
Orange County NY zone 6a Sedum Autum Joy, Rudbeckia, Sunflowers, Rose of Sharons and Hosta of course
Good morning Janey much love and huggicates. Love the plants you picked.
Hello Janey. If it's difficult for you, imagine how it's for me in zone 10b!! So when i see plants for 9 to 11 zone, i feel so happy. lantana is on top for me and after are superbena and sceavola, i like them so much!!
Just North of Atlanta we garden in Zone 8a ... right now I have rudbekia, coneflower, buddleia, neked ladies (Surprise Lilies), some late blooming daylilies, a few roses (hard to grow with our humidity), crepe myrtles (just about done), sunflowers, zinnias, dahlias, hardy hibiscus, goldenrod, joe pye weed, cardinal flowers, guara, coreopsis, geranium, begonias, salvias are starting their 2nd bloom (after cutback), caladiums, penstemon (2nd blooms), rain lilies (when we get rain !), autumn joy sedums, impatiens, vinca, marigolds ... sasanquas are already showing buds and I have a Confederate Rose that is all budded up as well !!! It's been a very hot & dry Summer here but we are seeing/feeling a cool down on the way and excited for the Autumn Season to get here - I don't mind the watering and babying, but I HATE the mosquitos !!!! Thanks for the tour of your fabulous work in progress - from one fellow Master Gardener to another 😎
My yarrow was doing the same but more yellow-brown look, I dead headed and boom bright pink flowers in two days
Gardening is a movable feast
Heads up on those skyscraper pink salvia…I’m also 9b central California and mine are easily 36”x36” so you probably only need one where you planted 2 together but that means you get more bang for your buck! I absolutely love them in my yard and look so great next to my mystic spires salvia
Hi Janey, I have to keep on reminding myself that I am not in the same gardening zone as yours. 😂 I absolutely love the colours of yellow with pink together with the marigolds and lantana! I guess I’m just getting tired of the same autumn colours in flowers , as they signal to me , bleak cold weather ahead 😭. Thankfully, the other day I found some echinacea that are called Coral Craze, a nativar here, which picks up the colours of the PW Little Lime Punch hydrangea . 🇨🇦🥰🌸.
Love your informative videos and great presentation. I guess I could Google it, but could you when you are talking about pests and diseases you may encounter in your garden film the plant and the damage (or actual pest) and discuss your solution on how you deal with it? I am in SF Bay Area and this year notice more evidence of plant damage but don’t know what is causing it. Thanks
In WI, hibiscus, brown eyed Susan, mums (I plant all my mums every fall & they come back every year), blanket flower, and the Shasta daisy and phlox. Lots of asters for September.
I have the bandanna rose lantana too! My favorite!!
💕💛
Anemones and hydrangea are august bloomers in Indiana
Your garden is still looking so beautiful in August. Mine is a mess. What´s blooming though: Roses, Anemone hupehensis, b or Coneflowers, Nepeta (they are just great), Dahlias and Hydrangeas. I´m in Germany (I think somewhere around zone 7b or 8a).
The girls haircuts look nice there aren’t already I bet you had fun shopping for school clothes, I too am in 9b, Did not plant anything this month until probably another month till close down and I also want to move some things around and it’s too hot for that place looks beautiful I’m so enjoy every month Jr planting of the month gives me so many ideas I have much less facing you but still it’s nice
