When my neighbors passed away their three children and four grandchildren all dug up daffodils to take with them as a memory.
I dug up peonies last fall from my grandmother's garden, realized she transplanted them 80 years ago. Made my heart sing to see them return this spring.
There’s some almost that old at my grandma’s. She passed in February. Is fall the best time to transplant peonies?
@@nikkireigns That's the idea with me, one day the house will be sold. Take the opportunity now, in the good weather to transplant. I would be s*** out of luck if it's in winter. It worked for me in the fall, might be better in the spring, less chance of burying the crown too deep with the nicer weather ahead.
@@nikkireigns If you can't dig it up in early spring when it's still dormant and hasn't sprouted new leaves, like Luke's talking about in this video, it's best to wait until after peonies flower and the leaves start to go yellow, or even better is to wait until the leaves die off and it goes dormant again, which would be late fall. If you dig them up after they start growing, they will probably survive, but they will go through a ton of stress and might not flower for a year or two while they reestablish.
@@christineedwards4865 thank you! I will fertilize them this spring as they’ve been neglected for years. That gives me time to decide where to put them!
@@margaretreid5989 luckily for me, the old farmhouse probably won’t be sold, so I can wait for fall. Thanks 😊
I dug up my mom's daffodils and tulips when she passed and moved them to my house. They are still coming up 10 years later.
SO HAPPY I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL.
Have been gardening 70 years -- 45 years in Michigan -- and there is always more to learn from a knowledgeable and experienced gardener!!
Looking forward to learning a lot from you...
There's nothing wrong with moving plants with you, heck I've even moved dirt. I had spent 10 years on my garden soil so I took two 55 gal barrels of it when I moved.😊
I love this so much 😅
I'll be trucking 9 yards of soil out of this place. Keep the furniture but I'm taking my dirt
@@DebRoo11 Exactly! 😁
That sounds lije me😂😂😂@@DebRoo11
That's my plan too when we finally get our land to farm. Lol
My Dad was able to take the raspberry bushes from my Great Grandmother's house before it was sold and now that I have my own place, I can divide it and have her raspberries for my home and my kids will be able to pick and eat the berries off as I once did which means more to me than as of it was a piece of jewelry or something materialistic passed down!
We bought my grandmothers house when she moved and raised my children there when they were small. There were these wonderful daffodils all around the porch and I divided them and replanted them there were so many I gave my mom a dishpan full of bulbs which she planted at the farm. 30 yrs later my daughters are grown. It made me sad when we moved from my grandmothers little house in town. How I loved that house. I now live on the farm I grew up on and every spring when the daffodills mom planted bloom, I think of her and grandma.
Not on topic I ordered your raised bed and free strawberries. It was shipped to NY state very fast and the strawberries have started to show leaves. I am very happy first purchase.
I get so much rain from the end of winter through spring that digging anywhere on my property is like working in mud. I move perennial plants in early autumn so they get comfortable over winter. Right now everything’s coming alive so I’m watching to see what’s coming back strong. It’s amazing how resilient perennial plants are growing here.
Early morning harvested everything, ready or not, when I was 4, and my grandmother was so kind and soft and said we didn’t need all that food and it could have grown bigger. Somehow I still felt great then we made breakfast.
When I transplant perennials, I do use bone meal to encourage that root growth.
There are plenty of wild or feral asparagus along the river in my northern city. I think i will try transplanting some this season before they sprout. The ground is still frozen...
I've got an asparagus plant that I moved from our old house and stuck in the ground "for now" and now 4 years later I still need to move it - I totally get how we can plant things in spaces that aren't ideal sometimes. :) Perhaps this spring is the year I finally move it! :)
I have some friends that would dig up there vast flower garden when ever they moved, 45 years later I have lost count how many times.
I need to relocate some of my echinacea as it's taking over in garden space. I typically leave them alone in the fall and winter for the birds to eat the seed
Could you talk about what soil you have in your raised beds? Loved your video on bagged soil!
I recently dug up my first blueberry bush that I planted about 3 years ago from my mom's house. It was green (in bloom) and I tried to dig a wide hole to not shock it as much during the transplant. It's not dead (yet, fingers crossed) but I wouldn't be surprised if I affected the harvest from it this year haha.
Thanks for the knowledge as always.
You might pick off the blooms and fruit so the disturbed roots don't have to work so hard. I usually prune out about 20% of the top when I transplant in spring
@@MynewTennesseeHome
Thanks for the advice, I was planning on remove a good deal of the blooms so that I got bigger berries over all but I'd rather have a smaller fruit this year then loose the bush entirely. Rather be safe than sorry
Hey Luke! We need you to get a drone and give us a birds eye tour of your property.
True, replanting at the same depth is ideal however, replanting a little bit " proud " is fine as long as you pull up additional soil to the root ball.
seaweed/kelp water very good for transplanting. you can also add B vitamins for even more success.
This year my asparagus is finally able to be harvested and I am already enjoying it. Was just thinking the other day that if I ever moved I would have to start all over, but after watching your video and seeing how easy it is to transplant I will definitely take some with me. Thanks for another informative video!
Just moved a coral bell and a heirloom hosta ( old mr pate hybridized hostas and daylillies over last 60 years RIP) and they be happy!
Upper E TN.
Not always a good idea but it was unavoidable.
Nice root system you were able to translpant. Asapargus roots usually cone bareroot if purchased. I bet yours recovers quickly.
Idk when you actually recorded this video, but if it was around the time you released it, its kind of a relief. Its nearly mid-april and my asparagus plants arent sprouting yet either. It seems super late for them not to be growing since asparagus is usually one of the first things to grow in the garden, but its comforting to see that yours havent sprouted either and its not just me.
I did the same thing but now I know when to transplant! Thank you Luke.
My magic sauce for transplanting is to add Espoma's Biotone Starter Fertilizer in the planting hole. Try it! You'll like the results!
I had to move 6 year old asparagus plants last fall. I couldn't believe how huge they were and how deep the roots had gone. Massive. Thankfully, they all survived, and I'm harvesting spears now.
Uh-oh I hope I didn't screw up by fertilizing. I just got a Meyer Lemon Tree today and the planting instructions on the tag said to put fertilizer in the hole. I transplanted it from a smaller pot to a larger one; not in the ground. I'm hoping you meant not to fertilize for a month if you are planting in the ground and that it's OK when up-potting.
Oh no! I just replanted rhubarb and I fertilized them immediately after planting! Well, I guess I'll see just how resilient they are.
Here in upstate NY, I feel like we have been in the 'wet season' for about 8 months now. We rarely go more than 3 days without even light precipitation. 😂
The orchard is a great location, the permaculture approach is ideal for perennials
Thanks for giving me permission to put off planting my fruit trees until fall 😂😂 I'm in FL and they are fully leafed out! But this will give me more time to get a better plan together.
I think im gonna go water my veggies
I dug up a rhubarb plant from my 93 year-old dad’s garden and brought it to our house when he came to live with us. It’s doing great several years later. Thankfully it’s hardy, because it got a poor start on my part due to laziness…
My husband says my plants shiver when they see me with a shovel cuz they never know when they're getting moved 😂😂😂. When they do, it's for there own good 😊
I have 4-5 hydrangea I have on my list to move, but here in Central Ontario Zone 5b, even though this winter was very mild, I am afraid to move them just yet. Normally I would still be covered in snow and the ground and lake would still have ice covering. Today alone the lake has been free for weeks and the ground can't take any more rain, it is creating puddles every where. but with this new video, Maybe I need to risk it sooner than I had planned, Plus I have some asparagus crowns I am planning to add to my garden. Any thoughts would be welcome.
I just transplanted two shrubs that were crowded and have three more natives to plant this weekend. Based on one of your videos vege garden is turned over and prepped and most of my seeds planted ... Obviously things like peppers and tomatoes have to wait a few weeks.
Peas and radishes already sprouting ... Just put tomatoes and peppers in yesterday ... Later this week my Basil and cucumber plants and green bean seeds. Really seeing what starting early does this year. Meanwhile just got videos from my Aunt in Germany and they are having a good amount of snow ... And they are in the middle of the country not far from Frankfurt not the mountains.
Aren’t those asparagus going to be shaded by developing fruit trees?
My asparagus appreciates part shade. Grows better than my full sun location 🤷🏼♀️
Thanks again Luke. Didn’t know to wait to fertilize!!! Would love to see a follow up curious how moving impacts harvest this year. So tempted to move my peonies. I just can't seem to get it done in the fall.
I still laugh thinking my old neighbors either love me or hate me. I planted mine right on the fence line.
Thank you, Luke.
Unfortunately I have to buy another peach tree and start over. Goats companions for my niece’s horse can jump a fence that would deter a whitetail deer.
This is about a week too late for me😂. I just moved some strawberries out of a kiddie pool to put in a stackable container. I man handled them & split em up. I meant to do it before they 'woke up' but never got around to it. So far all but 1 are doing good. I have another kiddie pool to transplant but I think I'll wait til next winter.❤
So I have a question.. is it safe to use any plastic for food growing or should you use food grade plastic ??
I need to move some established perennials (like 22year old plants!) We are re-doing the back landscaping and tearing down a deck and putting in a paver patio.
My question:
Is it better to move these NOW while dormant and place in pots or WAIT until we are ready to do the pavers and it is closer to replanting them (plants will be up and out of dormancy)???
I’d do it now, good luck
Great video!
We have wild elderberry trees around us when is the best time to get a clipping and start a new tree
We have plants that we have moved every time we've moved, including plants from both of our parents' homes. I was sure we'd killed one in particular, but it survived and is still with us! 🙂
Thank You!
How much of this process applies to bare root fruit trees and shrubs? I have two bare root concord grapes that arrived early, and I don’t want them to get hit by a freeze (my estimated last frost date is May 5th), so I stuck them in big pots.
Will you have to spray your fruit trees when the asparagus are growing? If so, what will you need to do to protect the asparagus?
I have some blue plaintain that has had some serious new growth over winter. I need to remove some but I don't really want to lose those new plants. I would like to move that extra somewhere else. Should I try it now?
What do you think about pH in the soil , on my channel I showed how to make rich soil out of clay but I didn't know that pH had a big part.
When you say not to fertilize your transplant right away, does that include no Biotone?
Thankyou!!!!!!!!!
I was just gonna ask what can you plant under a fruit tree ? or surrounding the foliage of a fruit tree what veggies are good to plant like spinach maybe things that don’t get too much sun I’m in Texas. We get a lot of heat of sun, but I’ve been trying to put stuff under the tree not directly there but under the foliage of the tree please can you make a video of stuff like that🌱🌱
I’ve never grown asparagus so I’m curious…is it ok to walk on them when you’re harvesting fruit from the trees? Or are they done by then? Thanks!
How to get pepper seeds to germinate fast??????
They will go a little faster if you have them on a seed heat mat. But in general, peppers take a little while to get going. Good luck.
Heat mat set at 70 to 80f til germinate then turn it off n give it light.
@@MadameCasper Thank you!
@lyndelgado6138 Thank you!
I had success with germination simply keeping them covered with an additional tray to prevent drying, on a shelf in the boiler room. Most of them germinated in 2-3 weeks
When is the best time to move a bleeding heart bush in MNzone 4? It is april and has started to show green leaves. Can it be planted under maple tree near Speedwell plant?
Great video 🥰🥰🥰🥰👍
Q: What about Asparagus that never😂8 really goes dormant? SE Tx, I need to transplant Asparagus in a pot but it barely dies back.
Not confident on when to move it.
All the instructions have you bury asperagus super deep. I am really confused.
The difference here is he's not planting young bare root asparagus. He's planting mature crowns that he dug up and left all the dirt on the the root ball, so he leaves the plant at the same level it had been growing at. Kind of like planting a potted plant. You plant at the same level as it was in the pot.
Does anyone transplant perennials by first making the vertical cuts around the perimeter then delaying the full excavation for maybe 2 weeks? Thinking it might give the plant a chance to recover while the deep roots are still intact. Maybe best for Autumn transfer.
It would depend on what time of year you are transplanting and how much soil (the ball size) you are giving the plant you are moving and if they even have deep roots. If you can leave under a foot on the sides that would allow for stronger side roots. Even then, two weeks would not be enough time for recovery for the actual final move. I’ve transplanted perennials (Echinacea and hostas) in the summer but made sure they were well watered 2 days before the move and were shaded after for a while. Hope this was helpful.
I too, have done root pruning. This was done in the fall to give the plant time over winter to concentrate new roots inside the circle cuts of the spade. Maybe doing the root pruning now is your only option. If so, spring is a period of rapid growth and 2 week delay is good if you take Luke’s advice and keep it watered.
@@celiauzarski2064 Thanks for the reply. My intent was just in general terms, not specifically a 2 week period. So you have used a fall to spring time period for a "delay". Thanks for the info.
Won't putting them under a tree mean they don't get much sun?
Oops I fertilized 😭😭
Ty so much for this video I have been freaking out about my trees also I got raspberries lol heart attack every day
👍👏🏻👍👏🏻👍
This timing applies to Michigan but my asparagus in CA is done producing big shoots and I've let the remaining ones grow to about 5' tall. Just be aware you need to alter the timing of moving perennials to your climate. 💚
Exactly
Heck, as soon as I click on one of your videos, I hit the like button, great things happen after that :-)
Ok these videos are pre-recorded I thought these were made and posted as is
Yep. I am in Michigan and it's been raining. High wind warning . Must of did video early week was nice for a change and sunny.
Yep. Earlier in the week it was nice and sunny. Been raining last few days. High winds warnings Friday Saturday
Has anyone in here been plagued with LESSER CELADINE/Pilewort/Fig Buttercup?
