Zone 10 here chiming in with lemon Cypress.
Angelina Sedum is another beautiful golden that spreads. I love your vids. Keep them coming Jim!
Certainly persists better during winters here in N. Georgia. Maybe not as aggressive as the Lemon Ball but a better plant IMHO.
Love mine too in 6b!
The Lemon Coral sedum is an outstanding performer for us also in zone 5. We always save a little bit of it indoors to overwinter and by next spring we can use it again to fill as many containers as we like. It really brightens up the yard.
Good idea
We go with Angelina (vs the above from Mexico) because it is tough and nails, and can withstand our cold winters here in Northern New England.
You can tell who's influenced our landscape design when we already have 3 of these in our yard! Really happy with the touch of gold holly, sunshine ligustrum and everillo carex so far in 6a 😁
Nice!! Thanks for watching
Mine too Clayton!
Has the ligustrum stayed fully evergreen through the winter in 6a?
@@ryanstauffer6785 this will be our first winter with everything, so tbd.
@@ryanstauffer6785 I put mine in last fall in 6a and it held on until that big freeze in Feb. Hit -4 for a week or so. Dropped it's leaves but came back strong and is now 4ft high. I think it's got a better chance to keep it's leaves this year with more established roots.
I purchased 4 Sunshine ligustrum plants because of your channel!! I love the color. I have lemon coral sedum because of Garden Answers videos. It looks stunning in a container and just as good in the landscape. Creeping Jenny has also provided a splash of bright green and camouflaged the weeds!! These UA-cam videos have made my garden thrive all year round! Thanks
Plants are great but your dog is EVERYTHING ❤
OMG!! I want them all!!!
Just found myself an Aralia Sun King it’s so nice in the shade for that illuminating pop of color
I'm starting to add more gold to my gardens. New found favorite Lemony Lace Elderberry, hardy 3-7, no maintained, bright color and great texture. Carex another favorite.
I agree, golden-hued foliage is a great way to add excitement to a border. I have several of those you highlighted in this video. At your request, I'll recommend a two more that have done well in my zone 8 coastal garden.
1. *'Color Guard' yucca* is such a great plant! The sword-like leaves are translucent when backlit by a low sun. Tall spikes of flowers in the early summer. Attention-getter. No care at all. PLUS: it thrives from zone 4 to 10.
2. *'Sekkan' cryptomeria* is a bright, lime green all summer with chartreuse branch tips. Graceful conifer.
Nice, I shot a colorgaurd video recently and haven't edited yet.
Thanks for these and your user name is great
Thanks for including some zone 6 plants!
A good amount of these are cold hardy👍
This video is golden. ✌😀🌿
I really dig that weeping Redbud !
A great time of the year to be talking about golden plants!
We have a fatsia near two Florida sunshine illicium plants on a slight incline in our backyard island & they are stunning together. The whole island is inclined, so we have Nikko blue hydrangeas at the back, staggered down to white camellias, staggered down to the illicium & then the fatsia. All the combination is so appealing.
I am REALLY enjoying my Chardonnay Pearls deutzia-- stays small, domed, bright and right now has pretty frothy white flowers.
Good to have you in my area!!!!!
Miss Lemon is a real standout; I plan to find a spot for it in my garden next year, very helpful video.
Great video! And a really fun thumbnail too ☺️
I'm so glad to finally have gotten over my disdain for gold plants, because I have been thoroughly enjoying my Florida Sunshine Illicium. It really stands out nicely against the neighbors' privacy fence in a slightly dark corner. A really nice architectural golden plant the golden rocket barberry. Not evergreen but I love its dramatic shape, and it does have nice fall color too. I see warnings about it potentially being invasive, but I've never had issue with any barberries doing that?
Great video, Jim. I’ve got a few of those on my wishlist and just waiting until they’re back in stock. Ascot’s rainbow euphorbia gives great chartreuse/gold color too.
On my half acre yard..I have different 'islands'..I have 6 sunshine ligustrums, and seriously..they are beautiful! I'm in 6b, in the Shenandoah Valley...close to Harrisonburg Va..I have the carex, false cypress, and two Kaleidoscope Abelia, a lemon lime nandina..so pleasing to the eye to have dark greens, purples, blue foliage and the golden colors..
Great video. I was happy to see some new shrubs for my zone 5b area. Your videos are very informative and helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Amsonia hubrichtii turns a brilliant gold for its fall color (pale blue flowers in May). Several Heucheras are available in various shades of gold. Very useful easy plant that is mostly evergreen for me in Z6. Abelias are great, and I just ordered a Miss Lemon for a new garden area I'm developing.
Jim, you have the absolute best music lately on all of your videos! It matches beautifully with your awesome knowledge, and advice! I personally love every single one of these evergreen plants that you showed! And I totally agree they are all great plants for color in the winter! Thank you so much for another awesome video man!
Choisya ternata 'Sundance'.
Got one planted this fall in my 7b garden where it is quite marginal. So I am covering the base with thick pine needles until the winter gets colder, then its frost fleece protection.
Jim, I also have growing on my side yard, 3 Olive Martini Eleagnus (sp?) to make my neighbor's 'go away'..planted last year, they are now beginning to really grow...cannot wait until they do their magic. The evergreen gold and dark green leaves are beautiful!
Great video; it will become one of my reference videos, for sure. I have several of these plants. All these gold foliage plants add such bright color to the landscape, especially if they are paired with dark green like gardenia or burgundy plants like loropetalum. They make gardens so much more interesting and the color is long lasting. Thanks for the info you share.
Two, green thumbs up for both Lemon Jade sedum and Gold n’ Sapphires Lithodora! I’m in zone 6a.
I’m new to gardening but (rather naively!) took on a major project this past spring & summer - 3 very large, new garden beds (that read more like 5 beds in total). Probably not the wisest starter project 😂
Anyway, after learning from you, Jim and from Laura at Garden Answer, I tried to get a good variety of seasonal interest in each section as well as colours (golds, greens, blues & reds/burgundy/orange) so I had my nursery special order both of these plants for me (I also used golden Japanese forest grass, some lemon heuchera, golden hosta - I think June fever - and a Winecraft Gold smokebush).
I’m also hoping to get a fluffy, feathery wee golden dude next year - maybe a Nana Lutea Gold or a Fernspray Gold hinoki falsecypress - and when it’s time to plant a few larger trees & shrubs in my final planned bed, I’ve got my eye on either a pinpoint gold false cypress or a golden Korean fir. Nothing shines bright like a golden evergreen 💎
Dang, now I also want that honey oakleaf hydrangea and a golden falls redbud. Thanks a lot, Jim 🙄 💸... 😂
Hillside shade gardener here, I find that the Carex Everillo is as bright green in full shade as in part sun. Love it!
Same, Clayton! I’ve got sunshine ligustrum, everillo carex, and touch of gold holly all newly planted this season. Thanks for the gold advice, Jim!!
I love it that Holly got to go with you!
Thanks for introducing me to gold plants. I never considered them before I saw them on your channel. I love the ones I've added to my landscape!
Top of our list - the Japanese plum yews Korean Gold and Golden Dragon which can thrive in woodland spaces (part shade). For those in colder climates, we have been particularly impressed with the Skylands oriental spruce, hardy to Zone 4, which holds it yellow color well throughout the growing season, and intensifies during the coldest months, ideal to brighten up spaces in winter...
I haven't planted them, yet, but have two of these (mojo pittosporum and sunshine ligustrum).
Fav is a lemony lace elderberry and gold dust acuba.
Gold dust could have definitely been included here from my landscape!
I love these plants! I need to find the spider plant!
Awesome video! My husband and I have been researching plants to add some color to our foundation. I love the Miss Lemon Abelia! We know nothing about plants, and your You Tube channel has been one of the most helpful resources I’ve found. But, I’ve become a plant stalker. We were driving through a neighborhood, and I yelled out Look Miss Lemon Abelias! Now we ride through that neighborhood once a month so I can see how those perform throughout the year. Can’t wait until it’s full on winter here in 7a!
Love my Illicium! It's right outside my front window in a shady spot and I love seeing that pop of color every day.
I enjoy all your videos but this may be one of my favorites. I like the single color theme, very helpful.
I just found lemon lime nandina in my nursery here in France. I'm so happy, It is so elegant and bright. I'm going to buy 2 more. Love it! Thank you for highlighting it.
I have 2 of them they are amazing. One of my favorites in my landscape.
Such gorgeous plant selections. Wow! Definitely taking notes because I love gold and chartreuse plants in the garden. Thanks for sharing these beauties Jim!!🤩🤩👀
Lemon Lime Nandina really is worth waiting for! Mine always have some spotty, not so great looking leaves in the first year, they just don't do much and don't look great. By year 2, they really start to take off and you're going to think, "Wow, where can I make room for more of these?" I think I have 11 of them now and I'm not sure I might not need a few more! Super low maintenance and they really perform!
11! LOL I thought I was bad..
@@canuckviolet3322 I have over 2 acres, so I have them in several different beds.
Do they grow in shade like under a crepe myrtle?
Thank you for your videos! I have added several sunshine ligustrum and Touch of Gold Hollies to my yard for a pop of color!
I love the lemon coral sedum! It has done an awesome job of weed suppression in my flowerbed and is a pop of color during the blahs of winter. 7b NC.
Love the hummingbird in the red bud photos! Adorable. Thank you for the video! I need to grab some carex for my garden.
That hummingbird has spent two seasons in that tree!
Love your videos! Really nice you post the names of plants on screen! I live in Knoxville, TN zone 7b also so need to take notes!!
I first saw Everillo Carex grass in your landscape and you told me what it was. I have been looking for it since recently found some! Excited to add this to my landscape!!! Thank You!😁
GOLDEN EUONYMUS is one that looks like the 6:10 holly but has normal shaped leaves. grows great in charlotte, nc zone 8a and is every green.
Great video, gave me some great ideas!
Definitely adding a few of these in the future.
So glad you did this video! I have Evil Ways butterfly bush which is one of my favorites!! I also love Hinkoi Cyprus Butterball.
Just got my first Abelia recently and I LOVE it so much! Peach Perfection, I think, is the name. It glows all day long! Lemon Coral Sedum has been a champ for years in my yard too. Still really impressed by your gold pineapple sage and will have to search that one out for next spring✨
I love punctuating areas of my garden with both the gold plants and red leaf plants (lorapetalum, smoke bush, barberry, dark leaf dahlias).
Great topic! I have a Summer Gold Dogwood that brightens up a far corner of my yard with its gold variegated leaves that turn pink and red in the fall. It's about 20 years old and only about 12 feet tall in a mostly shade area of my zone 6 garden.
OK... Great way to get me to watch the video again... I have 3 favourites... The 'Little Lime' Nandina, the 'Sunshine' Ligustrum and the 'Lemon Lime' Carex... I did like more than that x
I used your suggestions, as well! Illicium, Abelia, and Ligustrum-- on my way to get the Carex next. I've figured out the sun's placement year round now at the new house. :)- So excited!
I love gold plants! My newest is Aralia Sun King, love the bold leaves. But I also have illicium (Jim’s influence), hakonechloa, everillo carex, lemon cypress and lemon coral serum. Great video!
I’ve had good luck with gold mop cypress. I bought 5 Florida sunshine shrubs for shade areas this spring and they’ve all died. I’m in 8a. The gold mop must be bullet proof to survive my brown thumb!
Great concept video loved watching! My fav is the variegated “Twist of Lime” Abelia at the moment.
Wow hello neighbor! I heard you say Raleigh? I’m 40 mins from Raleigh! Def subscribing now haha
@ 2:53 I thought he was going to say "I'm back in this bitch!" LMAO
"Lemon Fizz" Lavender Cotton. The foliage scent is unbeatable.
Aralia Sun King, sweet flag Ogon (evergreen in my zone 6), Hakone, JP maple Jordan 👍
I’m warming to gold, there’s certainly more to choose from than 30 years ago.
In the Pacific NW, all of my wealthy customers have Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola' (varigated) or Hakonechloa 'all gold'. AKA Japaness Forest grass. I am definitely planning on using it in my shady front yard.
Can you do a video on moon gardens or all white gardens? I plant all white blooming plants and then different shades of greens.
Miss Lemon is my favorite. I wonder how much gold/yellow in the garden becomes too much instead of just being a punch of color? Some people go overboard with the yellow or maroon foliage sometimes. But you balance yours perfectly!
Hoping to get some shrubs in the ground this Fall. Perhaps Sweet Viburnum, Sunshine Ligustrum, Lemon Lime Nandina, and maybe a few others you mentioned.
Gold mop cypress is one of my favorites in zone 6b it does very well.
We have Forever Goldy Arborvitae on the front corner of our blue house 7b Midland NC. Such a beautiful contrast. Looking to add Touch of Gold in the same bed. Also have the Olive Martini Eleagnus because of you and they are beautiful with the variegation and unique new growth. Would love to have the fatsia and illicium but have to wait for our shade trees to mature more.
Selected a Florida Sunshine Ilicium & a Miss Lemon Abelia for an installation this week, limited Carex selection where we were. Already have the gold Sedum & Goldmound Spirea!
Holly looks road weary.
She is happily at home now
There are a lot of different heuchera varieties with gold foliage. Hosta as well.
One more: *'Goldcress cypress'* aka *'Lemon cypress'* is a narrow, lime-green conifer with bright yellow new growth. Scent of lemon furniture polish. This was a from a Christmas holiday planter that I planted outside last February in my zone 8 garden. Doubled in size. Looks fantastic next to dark, glossy-leaved evergreens.
I was thinking about planting mine after Christmas but didn’t think it would survive in zone 8. I’ll have to give it a try. 😀
I absolutely love all the different varieties of the golden collections with the added bonus of being evergreen 🌲 I am adding an Oakleaf Hydrangea and the Sedum this week so I’m delighted you’ve shared them 🥰 the Miss Lemon is beautiful 💕
Great Video in my neck the woods- South Alabama! I see Hakanachloe grass -(all gold ) on UA-cam videos frequently....I love it! But I NEVER see it in nurseries around here. Can we grow that in the Mobile area?
How about dried flower WREATHS? You are so good at arranging flowers.
What about Golden Yew? I need a gold plant in my foundation. It's under a crepe myrtle, so it's in some shade. I have lots of the Florida Sunshine, but wanted to have another type plant in the foundation. Thanks. Really like Horttube!
Can you do one on blue evergreens instead...I prefer them to gold. All sizes.
Jim, any tips on how to become a landscape designer? It's my dream
I bought a Gold Champion Arborvitae this morning. Your videos are so informative. I'm in NJ. I'm not sure if I should put it in the ground or keep it in a container for the winter??
How about Kaleidoscope Abelia? I have them and love them. They are very chartreusey .
I just want to thank you for all these videos! It has educated me on designing my garden on a side note, my Florida Sunshine Ilicium has some brown spots. Wanted to see if you knew why? Just more water is needed or is it a disease?
I just saw Cesky Gold Dwarf Birch on GardenAnswer. Love it. Would like to try it next spring, zone 6. Any thoughts, anyone? Do you have this? Thanks.
Abelia Canyon Creek
What about Golden Euonymus(Aureomarginatus)??
We have a shade area near the back of our property, at a tree line where deer like to gather. Recommendations for that area?
Hi Jim...another great video. Question on the golden Oakland Holly. Does that get berries like the green variety as well? I have both in my yard which were recently planted this spring. Wasn't sure if the variegated variety gets the berries. The green version is awesome as it gets the berries without the need for male/female hollies.
Gold dust Acuba is another one.
The plants that I grow for that pop of gold foliage in my landscape are 'Sun King' Aralia, 'Gold Mound' Spiraea, Golden Creeping Jenny (must be contained), and a 'Mariken' dwarf Ginkgo, which has amazing gold fall color.
I forgot to even show the aralia and the creeping jenny. Next time I guess🤣
My ‘Sun King’ Aralia loses its bright yellow color in summer and slugs are munching on it. Maybe I should move it next spring.
I just thought of another shrub in my garden that has bright yellow foliage, and that one is the Golden Rocket Barberry.
The problem is finding these new plants in my North Central Texas area. Every nursery sales the same old shrubs. 😒
I’ve recently found several of these plants at Calloway’s Nursery. 🙂
Will Miss Lemon keep its lemony color in a part shade (under deciduous trees) garden bed?
Hey there! I bought 4 Touch of Gold Holly as soon as it was back in stock(August) and planted it two weeks after its arrival. I planted them in very amended clay, sun until 1 or 2pm then shade. They had (3-4 .5gallon drippers) drip irrigation going every day in the month of august for 40 minutes . Three out of four turned brown by mid September. Perhaps I shouldn’t have planted them in August, the worst month possible, or too much sun, or too much water? Any suggestions? I live in North Texas Zone 8. Thanks, Tray
What is the varigated plant to the left at 7:46?
👍❤️😊
My husband said I am not allowed to watch you anymore as I am spending way too much money on our property lol
I am still watching. I try to slip in plants while he is at work...it usually takes him a few days to realize there are more plants. I blew my whole year budget in less than 3 months.
Fatsia 'Spider Web', ever since its first appearance years ago, gave me the impression of a very bad spider mite infestation. Now I can't "not see" it that way. Sorry.
