    ARE YOU PEOPLE FOR REAL?? 🤔😩🤦‍♀️ The LOVELY LADY took valuable time out of her day to Inform & Educate us about those ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL Plants (She's Spot on Knowledgeable) & All you GOT HUNG UP ON WAS WHETHER SHE SAID "PERENNIAL OR PRE-ENNIAL?? I HEARD PERENNIAL & Some slip of the tongue but COME ON ya'll!!?? we all have 2 or more words that's a Pesky trip up.
    **So no need to come HERE with your HIGH MINDEDNESS- DEGREES OF EVERY KIND, IQ HIGHER THAN A NY SKY SCRAPER SELF.....GANGING UP ON SUCH A SWEET SISTER & THEN THROWING HER UNDER THE BUS. May the good Lord help you to be Kinder & More forgiving. 🙏❤

    I bought me a bunch of seeds from, Dollar Tree. Can't wait to plant them. I just wait til all frosts are gone, which is about the middle of May. I plant them straight in the ground. I saved a bunch of my zinnias seeds from last year, they really do good for me. I know they are a annual, but I just really love them. And my blue morning glories done so good last year also. I bought 12 more packs this year. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I love yarrow. I got it growing wild out in my field, but it's just that dirty white. I would love to be able to grow the yellow and the peach color.

    Once you have Aquilegia in your garden and it's shady with a moist, clay like soil, you will never be without them anymore. They form huge patches of plants, many of them grow extremely tall, like about hip height and they all have different colors.

    Aquilegia, Echinacea, Rudbeckia, Geranium Maculata, and New England Asters have been self-seeding themselves in my yard for 14 years. I don't like the new types of Echinacea that don't produce viable seed, but the descendants of my original plants are still doing great. I tried to grow Rudbeckia from seed this year, but it has not done well. Not to worry, the descendants of my original plants are doing okay. I grew shasta daisies from seed about seven years ago, and they are still thriving.

    I made my front and back yard a Botanical Garden(my neighbours call it) as it was invaded by grubs. Everybody that passes by admire the beautiful flowers, even men (lots). Every fall, I've been collecting seeds then put in an envelope, put the name of the flower and year, then save them. So when those ladies ask for seeds, it's very convenient. Sometimes I just spread the seeds then when spring comes I can share baby plants.

    Great video! I am always happy to find another Canadian gardener on UA-cam. I also get many of my seeds from William Dam - they are great. I am trying indoor seeding with fall planting of cool annuals this year - a la Lisa Mason Ziegler. Annual seeds (as well as yarrow) sown a week ago are well germinated. Thought I would try same with a few perennials- Columbine, ajuga and heuchera. I suspect from what you said that Columbine may not germinate in time to get them in the ground with enough time before first frost. But half the fine is trying new things. Count me in as a new subscriber!

    Can cold-stratify some of these seeds to increase germination percentage ... also keep an eye on the Lupin - they are so aggressive! either prune before seeds or be overwhlemed with seedlings everywhere!
    Yarrow can be ground-layered as well if you don't want to collect their seeds (Simply bury a connected stem and it will root quick that can then be cut and moved)

    It hurts your credibility to call them "PRE-ennials" instead of perennials. If you are saying "BEE-ennials" instead of biennials, that's no better. "BYE-ennials." Anyone going to the garden store asking for bee-ennials or pre-ennials will likely get confused looks.
