We seriously need more videos like this one and the previous one! The amount of knowledge we can get from them is just crazy... And their gardens are just beautiful!
This, to me, is like Paradise. This was so interesting....Scott and Allyson are very generous with their knowledge and offering some plants to you for your property. Lovely people, with lovely lush gardens. Thank you Summer, Scott and Allyson, for sharing this with us. These tours are great! :)
So glad I was watching. The bigleaf magnolia is my favorite tree. It is supposed to be indigenous to the southeastern United States. And I have been looking for one for 30 years. I don't know a lot of people I guess. Thanks to both of you for your hard work. I have always said that no one works harder than gardeners. Tilling the soil. Growing food. And basically maintaining our green world. I can talk forever. I don't see many people. Yall were talking about patience. Gardeners are the most patient people in the world. Who else would wait for an acorn to grow into a tree. Thank you. Love the communing with other gardeners. And lastly. We need to keep spreading the word that just conservative initiative is not going to keep a species alive. Propagation and relocating plants to areas so they will survive.
Wow what a truly stunning garden! So lush and beautifully cared for, I love how they've lined the walkways with stones and branches - everything is very neat but also wild and overflowing. The amount of species they've collected to grow in that zone is really impressive. Such and amazing use of land, congrats to Hortus!
As a native plant enthusiast, look into Synphoarpos both the alba and the pink one. Both are pollinator/host plant powerhouses in addition to being super hardy, good for erosion, shade and sun, any soil, birds eat the berries.
Oh gosh are they fortunate or what? The scented leaves and flowers are things we all miss if you have any childhood memories, walking with your parents, through a gathering of plants from all over the world, there due to the efforts of a public park. The potential of mankind is there if they would work together in all things. We never got an official tour at our Whitnall Park but my parents pointed out some very curious plants. This tour is so nice.
Magnolia vine - a great way to put some vitamin C into your late fall/winter diet, and it fits into the vining layer, where most of us could use a few more specimens. Nice!
She did!! We try to do that when possible. We also have a fundraiser plant sale in May of plants propagated from the plantings. To learn more visit Hortusgardens.org.
I always give plants to people who I give a tour to. I just have hobby gardens. My favourite plants are the ones given to me by people I know-two of those people have died in recent years so the plants are especially precious for the memory of the person.
Like I said in Part 1, your content on this channel is fantastic. This couple have sooo much great info to share from their experience. It’s very encouraging to see these more tropical plants surviving in their zone. Thanks for the info and inspiration. My brain is full!!!
this is dream garden for me, all those amazing and unusual edible plants. Love the idea of having all these fruits etc to experiement with and make food from.
Absolutely amazing what these people are achieving. I wish more people in the uk were like this. This gives me inspiration for my permaculture allotment 💚 Thankyou for everything 🌳
Their garden is AMAZING!! 😍😍😍😍😍 a 1000000/10. Their garden is an adventure. You discover something in every little corner. I wish I had space like them and I hope I had their knowledge.
I visited a local blueberry farm in texas and they had over a hundred varieties! It was pay by pound and you could eat as much as you want while there. We ended up paying less than $8 for about 2 POUNDS. It was awesome, and really made me question buying berries in grocery stores lol
Amazing, inspiring, beautiful. I love the diversity and richness in your planting, and am now busy searching up which of these plants are likely to do well in Scotland, thank you!
Where do you meat these eccentric and brilliant people? And how did you yourself learn so much about plants? I can get enough watching your videos! I have been learning so much from all of you guys. I appreciate the work you’re doing and I hope you keep it up for a long time to come!
I let jewelweed run wild in my front garden, 100s of plants invite a spectacle of hummingbirds from midsummer on. The monarda is a hummingbird magnet as well. They also love all kinds of salvia. My favorite is salvia coccinea 'coral nymph'.
I did not know that about Pawpaw trees and their runners needing to be pruned for fruit production: and I've been collecting the fruit and planting the seed for years.
THANK YOU! for mentioning that the flowering quince needs a second. My grandfather told us that his grandmother would make jam, but I thought he was talking about a different kind. But if he only brought 1 to the new house, that would explain why we don't get fruit. Do you/Allyson/Scott have any recommendations for a flavourful variety to buy to pair with the one we have?
Thanks for the kind words. The difference with the flowering quince is not in the fruit flavor (they pretty much taste all the same) but with the flower color. For the Cydonia oblanga (Baltic Quince) the fruit eaten raw thinly slice is the one where the flavors remind some of apricot or pineapple. To learn more about the arboretum/botanical garden visit Hortusgardens.org.
Maintaining a permaculture garden is not so hard, if you don't have a 9-5 work, but to build this huge garden with the immense variety and to research and to get the unusual plants takes a whole life and true love.
It's more about light and water on weather Pawpaw get fruit. They also need lots of flies to pollinate. They don't ripen off tree is the main reason you cant sell in store and they are awful under ripe unlike most store fruits. I personally find most store fruits are under ripe trash anyway though.
I'm surprised no ones working on cultivating cold hardy citrus, bananas, and guavas since they dont exist in North America but could one day. Poncirus trifoliata, Musa velutina or basjoo, Acca sellowiana, Ugni molinae all have potential.
I live on the northern edge of the great plains I dont think any of this could live where I live 1- so much moisture 2- the wind would rip it apart 3-our soils are over 60% clay ,alkali with salt
Thanks for the kind words. We don't have a nursery per se but do have plants for sale. We do a big fundrasing plant sale in May and will have more info in our newsletter or thru our Instagram. To sign up and to learn more about the arboretum/botanical garden visit Hortusgardens.org And buy our new book Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts available for preorder at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Chelsea Green Press.
I was intrigued by Akebia but every review I have seen says it has little or no flavor and when it splits open in exposes the edible pulp to whatever crawls across/blows into/shits onto it. I’d rather use my limited space for something else.
Tried to watch the first video, but was instantly turned off by the stupid comment that Rush is a corrupt politician. Ignorance doubled. He is neither corrupt NOR a politician. Anyway, I have been watching a lot of your videos, but will be tuning out from now on. To quote Michael Jordan, Republicans buy shoes too.
I have to give this video a thumbs down. Too many problems arise from invasives for one thing. Also, I am in the south and my wild paw paws do have fruit, just not every year.

What an amazing couple! Their gardens are so diverse, I had no idea how bountiful the edible plant selections could be. I am truly impressed.

What a lovely couple, and a wealth of experience, knowledge, and information! Very impressive! Thanks Summer!

It's really cool that it's possible to grow so much taste things in so small space 👍👌👌
I am so stunned and impressed by these people and thier gardens.....and the way they know all the names ...wow.
What an incredible place, so much to see and experience. This is my dream property, their hard work truly shows.
Mine too!!!😊💖
Thanks for sharing…both of them are certainly plant lovers. They spoke with passion as they introduce each of their “baby”
Quality of these videos goes above and beyond

Truly an awesome couple! I am just soaking up the beauty and figuring out which plants I want to grow. 🥰
I LOVE the way this man is offering to give Summer plants. I hope she takes the offer. As I've never seen anyone do this before.
She did!! We try to do that when possible. We also have a fundraiser plant sale in May of plants propagated from the plantings. To learn more visit Hortusgardens.org.
Giving away plants, seeds and cuttings is a big part of why I garden. Makes me feel good and clears space for the next batch!
I always give plants to people who I give a tour to. I just have hobby gardens. My favourite plants are the ones given to me by people I know-two of those people have died in recent years so the plants are especially precious for the memory of the person.

So much info and so generously shared. Thank you for making this. Blown away
this is dream garden for me, all those amazing and unusual edible plants. Love the idea of having all these fruits etc to experiement with and make food from.
Second video just as great as the first. Special thanks to th camera person for a job very well done. Thumbs up!
Their book on Cold Hardy Fruits is excellent.
Fantastic Once Again,
Wonderful to see 3 Plant Passionate People :)
Sander, Your a Great Camera Man
Love and Rainbows
Absolutely amazing what these people are achieving. I wish more people in the uk were like this. This gives me inspiration for my permaculture allotment 💚 Thankyou for everything 🌳
Thank you. We will be doing a talk for the UK audience soon!
Jewelweed may not be very effective against poison ivy, but my partner and I discovered this summer that its very effective for nettle stings!
What a rich, soul-satisfying tour!
Wow so many wonderful varieties! Loved it! This was definitely a valuable video full of great information. Thanks for sharing.
One of my favorite videos! Thanks Summer!
What a treat! Thanks for sharing..
These two are gems! Thanks for sharing!

Applemint makes excellent tea - steep it in simmering water covered for 2-3 hours in 1-2 gallons of water, no sweetener needed drink hot or cold.
Love them. I can’t wait to add more fruit and nut trees to my yard. ✌🏻
That was such a pleasure to watch. So many interesting plants and enthralling knowledge. Thank you.
Again, very informative and I can’t wait to put these in my permaculture fruit and nut orchard!
Where do you meat these eccentric and brilliant people? And how did you yourself learn so much about plants? I can get enough watching your videos! I have been learning so much from all of you guys. I appreciate the work you’re doing and I hope you keep it up for a long time to come!

6:08 Wow!!! Such a cool flowering plant!
Soooo good to see greeneries everywhere💖 You always inspire me in so many ways Summer Rayne💘
So many tips and inspirations for new things to try in my food forest.
Love the conversation.
So love this tour! Very inspiring
Thank you!It is very intresting!
Just beautiful
Feel in love with the greens everywhere, so amazing.. Does anyone know how much rain falls there? Did they mention?
I did not know that about Pawpaw trees and their runners needing to be pruned for fruit production: and I've been collecting the fruit and planting the seed for years.
Lovely channel, incredible, thank you for this tour. 👍❤❤❤❤🌲🌲
Enjoyed the video , thanks again .
This was an inspiration, and gives me some ideas. Thank you!
Wonderful 💚🌿💚
That was fun!

👀 just want to say 'Yey!'
Thanks for sharing
love your videos , very good energy .
I started a food forest last year this helped me greatly..thankyou
Summer: So how many fruits, nuts, ornamental plants do you have?
Allyson and Scott: YES
Is the curry plant in the pot or planted in the ground! Beautiful garden! What is the hardiness zone?
Do the paw paws on your property now, we have a bunch and the deer never bother them.
I could spend all day there.
Is fantastic thank you
Hey guys, I would love to know the book on pricing he's talking about. Thank you!
Perilla is delicious herb. We Asian love it
Snowberry are really popular in my part of Europe in parks and so on
What growing zone is this? "Cold hardy"? Im in zone 3 - looking for all the cold-hardy I can get! 😅
It is currently zone 6. The book does have several zone 3 plants included in it.
@@hortusarboretum5016 Thank you.
What zone is this? Don’t think I heard them talk about it.
Zone 5, latitude 41? Would love to know if most of the plants in their book works in zon 6 BUT at latitude 60 (Stockholm/Sweden).
Who else is here for the chickens
How on earth can they maintain it all?
Maintaining a permaculture garden is not so hard, if you don't have a 9-5 work, but to build this huge garden with the immense variety and to research and to get the unusual plants takes a whole life and true love.
How many possibilities 2 additional zones gives, amazing.80 percent of these plants dont survive at where i am, not that i didnt try anyway))
It's more about light and water on weather Pawpaw get fruit. They also need lots of flies to pollinate. They don't ripen off tree is the main reason you cant sell in store and they are awful under ripe unlike most store fruits. I personally find most store fruits are under ripe trash anyway though.
Where do they get their labels from? I’d love to do that in front of each of my plants!
I'm surprised no ones working on cultivating cold hardy citrus, bananas, and guavas since they dont exist in North America but could one day. Poncirus trifoliata, Musa velutina or basjoo, Acca sellowiana, Ugni molinae all have potential.
What is this show? Is it only on UA-cam? I really love it. I am from Oneonta, New York and have never heard of it.
jewel weed is great for mosquito bites i learned this in camp a million years ago
What hardiness zone are they in?
zone 6.
I can get by with some plants in zone 5, but need 4 for most plants
I live on the northern edge of the great plains I dont think any of this could live where I live 1- so much moisture 2- the wind would rip it apart 3-our soils are over 60% clay ,alkali with salt
Im trying to grow pawpaws but im in eastern ontario zone 5B. The ones i grew died but ill try again. Im just off the edge of there grow zone
Nice video. Do they have a nursery?
Thanks for the kind words. We don't have a nursery per se but do have plants for sale. We do a big fundrasing plant sale in May and will have more info in our newsletter or thru our Instagram. To sign up and to learn more about the arboretum/botanical garden visit Hortusgardens.org

10:12 spider was coming to eat your hand
No/low allergic reaction to poison ivy, or is there a pro tip somewhere in there?
you mentioned a book on pollarding trees. could you please give me the exact title and author? Thank yooooooooooooooou :)
I don't know for sure but it sounded like it could be Sprout Lands by William Logan. It's a wonderful book! Also great as an audio book.
Anyone know the cultivar of the hydrangea at 37:16 ?
Is that Japanese Stiltgrass growing everywhere?! :(
Along with growing invasive, I noticed a whole bunch of invasive stiltgrass
Do domestic mountain ash
what's the name of the book ua-cam.com/video/FTdkP8-LSFY/v-deo.html ?
at 12:51
Sonder… please slow down when panning.. I’m getting sea sick.
I was intrigued by Akebia but every review I have seen says it has little or no flavor and when it splits open in exposes the edible pulp to whatever crawls across/blows into/shits onto it. I’d rather use my limited space for something else.
Akebia only needs 3x3 ft space AND a house wall with a stainless steel cable to shoot up. The flavour is not strong, some people love it, some don't.
Zone 6a is far from "COLD HARDY"
Tried to watch the first video, but was instantly turned off by the stupid comment that Rush is a corrupt politician. Ignorance doubled. He is neither corrupt NOR a politician. Anyway, I have been watching a lot of your videos, but will be tuning out from now on. To quote Michael Jordan, Republicans buy shoes too.
U have bees? U have enough flowers, where r u as trees r very hard to raise here
I am just curious , are you getting a divorce ? , Is It A joke to continue to talk about divorce ? The divorce garden , is very lovely . 🤗😇😁
I have to give this video a thumbs down. Too many problems arise from invasives for one thing. Also, I am in the south and my wild paw paws do have fruit, just not every year.
Great job girls you are real hero for me how many fruits you find for colder climate
I find the way for growing pomegranate in Canada now I have 2 year old plant in my garden
Heat red flower who have mint like smell thats Canadian bee blam plant here so many planta in our forest
