You seem very sweet softly spoken which i appreciate and your garden is natural, very pretty and comforting . Thank you
thank you so much!
Astilbe is a wonderful shade plant. I have some with a darker foliage. Love them. Penstemon too.
Wow such a lovely garden with Forest vibes
Dearest Yuliya, Thank you sooooooooooo much! This is so helpful! Aren't they beeeeeeeautiful. Lots of love
Thank you so much!
I was enamored with astilbes since I started my love affair with gardening. I, however, lost all of the first astibes I planted in my young garden and haven’t thought of replacing them. Till about two weeks ago when I saw this beautiful red flowering astilbe in our local nursery. I took one home and gave it a nice large pot, room for growth. It is currently sitting in a shady part next to my Tuff Stuff hydrangea. Welcome back Astilbe♥️
Thanks for sharing, loved all of the astilbe in your garden.
Hi Yulia, I didn’t know Astilbe was a shade plant. So pretty and fluffy.
I’m thinking back 25 yrs to another house we had, where I planted it in the sun.. no wonder it didn’t do well. Thank you for sharing. Take care and God Bless, Chris-Raleigh NC
Yes, they don't like sun at all. Thank you so much for watching!
Looks beautiful thank you for sharing.
You are so right! I have 3 Astilbe's that are so reliable. Only 3. I need to plant more. Thank you for all your videos 💟
Beautiful, the garden plant too.
Beautiful astilbe!! Love the digitalis! Thanks!
The pink flowers are beautiful. I always enjoy seeing what you are up to. Have a great day
OMG gorgeous plants!!
So pretty! Love your gardens!
Looks beautiful!
I'm really enjoying your channel. Thank you for being so easy to understand. I also like the fact that you provide both the scientific and common names.
I have one astilbe beautiful flowers thank you for sharing
Your astilbe are gorgeous. I've planted 3 in my woodland shade garden and can't wait for them to mature!
So lovely Yulia! Such an inspiration!
Thank you for sharing your lovely garden!
Love those fluffy hot pink astilbes! Thank you for sharing.
Love the white and the wood logs.
I’m glad I found you!! Love your passion and creativity! Thank you for the inspiration!!👏💕👩🌾
Thank you so much for your comment!
After blooming the foliage is beautiful too. Texture is also important in a shade garden.
Beautiful flowers 👌👌
Love it!
I need to move my plant. Too much morning sun but love them. Your garden is beautiful.
I agree, what's not to love about Astilbe's?!
I had never planted these before but plan on it this year. I have a very shady yard so I am looking foward to seeing them bloom. Thank you! Your garden is beautiful!
Beautiful garden
Your shade garden is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing. Just found your channel and had to subscribe of course!
I really like those plants, I'd heard of Goat's Beard before, had no idea what it looks like, it's rather nice too. I actually have a lot of areas I could plant those, guess I'll have to look for those while out an about, we didn't get any in the garden center this yr, maybe we will before my time is up. Love the bee in the white flower, I could hear him say....I can jjjjjust aaaaaabout reachhhhhhh it.
The bees are all over the penstemons. If you look closer you can see the pollen on their tiny legs. ha ha! thank you so much for watching!
Love love love Astilbe... my favorite for my clients is Astilbe thunbergii 'Ostrich Plume"
Thank you for this video. I am planting these under a tree.
I just stumbled on your site...I have a lot of trees and this will be my go to plant for my trouble spots! Thank you.
Beautiful Garden Yuliya! I just planted some bare root astilbe and have no idea if I planted them correctly. I watched two youtube videos that gave completely different directions, so we'll have to wait and see. They're so beautiful though, if I don't see progress soon they'll be replaced with more mature plants from the nursery. Thanks for sharing!
I enjoy your knowledge and the gentle music. Normally I prefer the sound of nature in the garden but your choice of music is nice thankyou. Tammy
Good morning, I’m a newcomer to your channel and I really enjoy your very comprehensive review of plants. I have recently fallen in love with astilbe and just started my shade garden. It’s coincidental that you pointed out that they cannot get dry because I thought I lost my first one! The second one I purchased is the visions in white and I cannot wait until it becomes more mature.
I also love how you're gardening in sandles 😄😄😄
Love this video very much , lot of information inside of the video, Thank you for sharing, subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
I just found your channel and I love your garden and your work. I’m in zone 6b lower Hudson Valley NY and I love what you did in the strip between the street and side walk. It makes people feel like they are walking through your garden. You’ve inspired me!
I love my devil's strip! and that's the feel i was going for. When people come home from work they can relax, smell the flowers and enjoy!
Astilbe, so graceful! I tried to plant some in a shady place in our Zone 8 yard, but the above 90’s weather we just had withered the buds. Oh well, perhaps next Spring will be cooler!
Thank you for watching!
I just bought astible because of you!
I just got one I can't wait to plant it! I also live in very woodland area! I have one to see how it goes, but definitely want more!
The star of the show are the two dogs! I'm a dog lover, you do a great job love your videos.
Yes! Love me some doggies!
I have a black walnut tree in my front yard. Thank you!
I’m currently binging on your videos!! Where have you been?! LOL UA-cam just now recommend you, I’m so happy for that! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for your comment! I don’t know what happens! Have been posting videos for about two years. Thank you for joining! 😁😊👍
New sub. Love your garden!
Goats beard!!! I live in PNW, and harvest natives alot, to include Goats Beard. I love your garden, shady and foresty, so I decided to subscribe. Well done, and thx for the astilbe hints.
I’ve just stumbled on to your channel & i’m Noe in the process of binge watching. Your garden is absolutely stunning 🌱🌸🌿🌳🌼 You’ve given me a list (a mile long) that I want to source 😂 Although our seasons are opposite. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge & garden & greetings from Australia 🇦🇺
So happy to hear! you must be getting ready for spring 😂 Crazy how somewhere in the world spring is coming soon 😊
Your soil looks so great. I have heavy clay alkaline soil here in Indiana. I’ve been working on this garden for seven years so it has improved.
Thank you! Yes, I work on my soil all the time 😊
You can also divide Astilbe, when it becomes very large. I find that they also tolerate sunny areas quite well.
I've grown them in full sun too, but they do require frequent watering.
I'm so glad that I watched your video. I don't know if this will work now that you said it can't get sun for even 10 min. I get a mix of mostly shade but I do get a little sun as the day goes on.
I love astilbe too, but have such a hard time with it. Between keeping them moist enough (under a weeping cherry tree) and browsing deer it’s a struggle. Your woodland garden is gorgeous, I’ve always wanted one. We have scorching sun 🥵
I am really enjoying your channel. Your flower choices are so unique to me and beautiful. Keep up the good work. I did subscribe and plan to watch as I can. Thank You! 💕💕💕
@Lisa Walters thank you so much for your kind comment! and welcome to the channel! :)
Just recently discovered you & really like your sense of design, your plant selections & how well you understand, describe, identify & show the plants up close & at a distance. This really helps with recognizing them & with learning about features of those plants. I used to buy so many gardening books & have planted so many plants - but often, some live for a few years then disappear.
I have one bed which had several lovely plants - lavender Thalictrum, pale pink Dutchman's Breeches, pink Bleeding heart, purple Pasque Flowers, & white Japanese Anemone, which have been completely overrun by groundcovers: Periwinkle Vinca, Pachysandra & Lily of the Valley, which formed a dense mat over the years. It looked great when these plants emerged to rise above the blooming vinca, but then they were extinguished. The only thing that has survived them has been my blue-green Hosta Elegans! It's a very large one - but not as large as they used to be. Maybe I could try a shrub in the center.
My Astilbe have been overcrowded too. I have at least one left, peeking out from encroaching ferns. When's the best time to relocate them?
In other beds, things I'd put in which were drought tolerant & withstand full sun - like Lavender, a salmon colored perennial Poppy, Echinops / Globe Thistle, Artemisia - SIlver King & Silver Queen & Silver Mound, & lovely Eryngium /Sea Holly , purple Liatris, White Swan & pink Echinacea etc., were doing fine for years, but later were all chased off by another plant crowding them. It was a pale yellow foxglove which I'd allowed to drop their millions of seeds, so they formed lovely drifts.
Now, only the Day Lily, Husker Red Penstemon & native Ferns stand their ground - but at some distance. I wonder if these Foxgloves are allelopathic, & dominate by chemically preventing other plants from growing next to them. Luckily the bees & hummers love them so I've accepted their take over - to some extent. I'm old now. Live & learn.
Do you know what I could plant among these Foxgloves which might survive? I'd love some more silver foliage, White & also blue flowering things would look beautiful with them. A friend wants to give me some Blue Flags which were blooming while my Foxgloves were. My other colored, larger foxgloves only lasted a few years - until these spread. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I'd like to note that my Husker Red Penstemon have deep purplish red stems & leaves - even when their leaves emerge in the spring. Those you had in a pot may have been mislabeled, as they appeared to have green stems & leaves.
Re: the Goat's Beard - I recently saw a clump of them in a sunny perennial border. They were huge - but for some reason, the stems seemed too weak for the tassels, which were so large - easily 10" long X 8" wide, so they weighed down the stems, which ended up curved downwards.
You'll love this guy's work. Maybe you already have enjoyed his videos. Here: "John's Herbaceous Border in July" ua-cam.com/video/we8lQTcmwV8/v-deo.html
I've seen many pics of Goat's Beards in which the flower heads were upright spires though, so there may be different types, or some reason why the stems on that plant in John's border weren't strong enough to support those huge tassels. They were quite crowded by other large clumps of perennials - or maybe the location was too sunny for them .
Really love all of your garden vids I've seen so far - & the Rhodi pruning was very good too. I had to prune mine back hard as I wanted to make a path, & was pleasantly rewarded. I hope you'll do some on propagation of various plants from prunings.
Loved your Monarda / Bee Balm, by the way. Mine are a lower growing lavender pink type, which seems far less vigorous than the redder ones. They're just beginning to spread after several years. My soil is slightly acidic. I wonder if I should try adding some lime around them. Do you feed yours?
Thank you for your lovely comment! - astilbes are best moved in the spring. - about the foxgloves. it is possible that they are allelopathic. i would make a decision (tough one) what i like more of and then remove all other volunteers. blue flag would look lovely, they are really tough and a good candidate for foxglove companion. - my penstemons colored up a lot after i planted it in the sun, they tend to be more greenish is shade locations. - love John Lord, watch him all the time. - monarda is soooo easy. it is borderline aggressive but very easy to control by removing unwelcome rhizomes. the only thing it dislikes is soggy soil. Good luck!
@@greatgardensforall Thank you so much for your advice.
A few years back, I did yank out lots of the progeny, late one summer, but of course plenty more replaced them.
I hope to do a major renovation soon, including lifting 2 colors of pink herbaceous Peonies, & a pink Tree peony in the next couple weeks, so they will have more sun, & work them into the mix.
I know this time of year is good for relocating the herbaceous Peonies, but when would be the best time to relocate the very old, but small Tree Peony?
A guy I hired to remove some saplings cut my old Tree Peony & a Lace Cap Hydrangea to the ground, a few years ago, thinking they were weeds. Luckily they both came back!
Thanks for your inspiring videos.
I just planted 6 bare root astilbe, and I hope they make it. I’m going to look for the plants & hope to find them to add to the group. I’d love to know what that music is. I’ve heard it before & just love it!
I am so inspired by your gorgeous garden. That’s my dream garden. You could open a Pinterest account and post pictures of the varieties you’ve forgotten, they all come up. That’s what I do.
Hunh? How does that work (I'm not on pinterest). How does posting a picture reveal what it is?
Jake Jones when you click on a picture, similar matching pictures posted by other people always come up.
@@cashk100 ah, gotcha. Thanks.
Thank you so much Kate! that is so sweet! Thank you for the tip :)
I must add more of the astilbe! Zone 3b Montana ❤
So beautiful - I love your garden! We also have a Norway maple, which gives us nice privacy (and for that reason the fact it keeps its leaves a long time is helpful for us) but the roots are coming up out of the ground about 10 feet on from the tree and we also have so many little feeder roots from, I think, the maple in our flower beds! Do you have this problem? We've struggled with growing plants (our yard is small so not a lot of space away from the maple!) - put some hostas and astilbes in last year and they seem to be doing well for now, but I'd love to put some smallish (10-15 ft mature height) evergreens in for more privacy but not sure they'd survive??
Yikes my new ones are in heavy shade and not doing well at all .. sad. I was looking forward to their blooms spiking up/out from other plantings. Hum crinkle that might be it 👍 soo I might not be watering them enough? Will watch them in full shade. One in sunny area not hot just dabbled is doing beautiful and water about the same as ones in shade. Thanks 😁
Yuliya I love your gardens they are so beautiful! The north side of my house is so shady nothing grows there. I believe I have just found what I want to plant there! ;) Now I just have to figure what that "Fluffy", 😉lower to the ground and hot pink is called. That color just like your gorgeous rhododendron (I cringed when you took the pruners to it), 😧☺️ from a couple of videos ago just so gets my attention. Is the rhododendron doing ok? How tall does that fluffy one gets? Thank you for sharing your gift with us, much appreciated it! 💗
Thank you so much for watching! This is the second time i prune the rhododendrons and there are right back where i pruned them five years ago. They are super resilient. I am so sorry i don't know the name of the 'fluffy' :)
I love astillbe plants. What type of compost do you use?
Hi thanks… question…to keep the beautiful blooms going do we dead head the flowers ever? I thought they bloomed a good long time but finding out it’s one burst of color for few weeks then done? Is that correct? 🥰
I love how this looks with all the astilbe. I am also interested in what other plants that you have besides the ones you identified. Can you tell us what else is there? Thank you so much. I would love to recreate this type of area.
There is a tour I did of the area. Just search y garden woodland 😊
👌👍😍
In the uk astilbe is also called false goatsbeard ☺️
Wow, that’s so interesting! Always learn something new from other gardeners!
Interesting. It's called goat's beard whereas Astilbe is also known as false goats beard.
Astilbes are fantastic.
Can they grow in the tropical country like India ?
Thanks a lot for the video uploaded .
Love all of your videos. How does your peonies do in the shade? I thought they were a full sun plant. Even in full sun mine get powdery mildew.
Karen, they do ok. They don't get as many blooms as if they were in full sun. Mine get mildew regardless of sun exposure. Mildew is more of air circulation, humidity problem. They definitely prefer sunny location but I don't have that much sun and stubborn to grow all kind of plants :)
I love Astilbe too! How long does it bloom for you? I hesitate to plant more as mine don't bloom very long at all and then don't look the best after. Maybe they are not getting enough water.
Always love your shows... and I just was given some red astilbe so I need to know what to do with it. I am confused... are your peonies growing in shade?? I thought they needed lots of sun.
I’m in zone 6 (northern NJ) and found that they do best with some sun as I planted them in both deep shade and partial shade areas last year. The more sun, the better the growth and the blooms. In fact the ones in the deepest shade, all from trees, didn’t fare very well at all.
Yes, agree
I have always liked Astillbe and they are a lovely complement to hostas. Unfortunately, they just don't seem to do well here. I wonder if they prefer a more acidic soil or perhaps more humid air. Unsure. I just know they don't thrive here. I was going to try some foam flower this year as an alternative, but have yet to find the one I want.
So sorry they don't do well where you are. Sometimes they are hard to establish and take few years before blooming. LOVE foam flowers! have a number in my garden. Highly recommend 'Running Tapestry'!
@@greatgardensforall Thank you. I'll look into that variety!
I have several in containers & they grew double the size I got them in. Just curious why the bloom color revert back to that wash out green? I’m planning on splitting them next Spring. No need to buy more.
I've always pronounced the last e in astilbe (a-still-bee). Is that wrong? Anyway, the pentstmon look amazing. And of all the astilbe you have, I think the ones at 10:48 are the most striking. Looks great. Thanks for the vid!
ha ha ! I think you are right, it is accent on the 'bee'. It's just where i am from we say more like 'beh'. Thank you for watching!
@@greatgardensforall Actually you are saying it correctly Yuliya Astilbe is the botanical latin name. I have studied latin. Unfortunately americans butcher nearly every latin word, lol
really beautiful! A question, do you deadhead your astilbe blooms?
Great question! It depends on the summer. If it's rainy and they become all moldy i do, but if they keep nice and dry i don't. I love their structure in the winter with snow on them. Soooo pretty!
I live in zone 6b. I was wondering if can get a jumpstart on them and start inside? Any recommendations?
I have a window with full light but no heating lamps.
if you buy them bare root you can start them in pots, but they do prefer to be outside even in 6b zone.
Hi, I have seen reviews on how they can attract flys? Is that true?
Wish astilbe was deer resistant here in N.C. zone 7B. They gobble mine up.
Did you try spraying deer repellent?
What air temperature does astilbe not like? I have astilbe in full shade but we get up in the hight 90s to 100+ in texas. I hope they are dormant because I did get blooms this spring.
I know with hotter zones they likes to be tucked in in more shade and given more water. They are from east Asia so not sure if the consistent 100s is preferred. Good luck!
I ordered4 bulbs, forgot about them for 3 weeks in the box. I planted them after inspecting them for life and 1 week later they had all just exploded!
Im in zone 8b, and i have bulbs. Im scared to try and grow these… any tips? I want a good soil mix
They will grow good in zone 9a?
Can PJM rhododendron by trimmed this way? Thx Tracy
How long do they bloom?
What is in the lower right-hand corner of the picture? It is low to the ground with a reddish flower. It is to the right of the Goat’s Beard.
Over the last year,,I’ve become more attentive to my yard. I have astilbes that have been in the ground for about 15 years. They bloom every year, but have a lot of brown, dead plumes at this point. Should I cut the entire plant back in the fall then separate? Will it regrow if I cut I back?
Sometimes i leave the dead plumes because they look pretty in the snow. If they look unsightly you can definitely cut them.
Thank you. I’ll cut them after the first freeze.
Are there native plants that will do well in dry shade? I try not to do supplemental watering except in drought.
Few will. White wood asters, snake root, some joe pye weeds. If you want to grow large selection you will need some supplemental watering
Mine flop but are very young!
My pink astilbe gets larger every year. My red astilbe planted 5 feet away blooms but is not growing. Any ideas?
Where did you get the astilbe and other shady area plants? Thanks
I get a lot of my plants in local family owned garden centers. Some online, some divisions from friends, some from trash, some from seeds. A lot of plants are from Costco, they have great quality perennials in the spring from Longfield gardens.
Can roses grow near black walnuts?
Are they gopher tolerate ?
They don't flower well without at least partial sun in my experience.
How often do you run your drip system?
About every other day for an hour. Every day during heat wave. Thank you!😊😁
Beautiful garden, beautiful footage, a friend shared and I am glad they did.
I found the repetitive "so" in the presentation a bit jarring.
What's wrong with Norway Maple?
I have
I bought a penstemon busker red and it died so I tried again and that died too then I went to a show and found penstemon dark towers and that does ok ,so I think that is hardier than the busker red ,I think you would like that on too 😘
Sorry Husker red (must put my glasses on 🤓🤓) lol E T
I had good luck with both Husker Red and Dark Towers. I also have the straight up native Penstemon digitalis which I love!
My Astilbe looks awful. The leaves are brown and light green. We do water them. Another one is acting like it’s stunted in growth. Didn’t grow to much but they all tried to bloom. The blooms were nothing much. One is in a shaded area the other is semi-shade. HELP!
Do they get enough water? Fertilizer? Also, at the end of the season they all look really tired. Try compost next spring, it's a miracle worker :)
Thank you! They might look better next spring
