    You should plant the roses that make your heart sign! To me it sounds like that’s two different kinds!

      Love that idea! Why not 💛💛

    I keep commenting while I watch! 😂
    I think you should start a children’s garden and put the strawberries in there! I know that you only have the one little fella right now, but he WILL grow up in the garden, so it would be super nice for him to have “his own” garden.

      Such a good idea. We need to start thinking about where the best spot for his garden is!

    My strawberries get eaten by bugs without intervention and birds but I hear from others how well their strawberries do in the green stalk towers. You could cover with bird netting when the berries start producing to protect from birds, but bug damage should be at a minimum because the berries aren’t on the ground.
    I’m a very whimsical romantic person and I think two different roses on one arch would be so much fun! Go for it!

    Please show us your entire winter indoor garden setup. I want to try it myself but I'm afraid! I completely understand your new garden aesthetic. With string lights it should be gorgeous. I like mixing the roses, or any flowers. More natural looking

      Surprisingly we don’t have a problem with birds eating the berries, but slugs seem to enjoy them the most 🙈
      Thanks for the affirmation to plant different roses on the same arch! I think I just might ☺️

      @@SunshineFarm haha!! Not those pesky slugs again! Hate them!!! Well maybe they’ll do better up high, dangling off the green stock. Dangling berries 😏🤣

    We planted strawberries in Greenstalks this year and they are growing GREAT, so that's my vote for strawberries! 😊

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому

      Oh that’s awesome! Does that mean they’re just grown as annuals then?

    I would say strawberries in the kitchen garden (to keep pest down) but most of the season that bed would be not producing

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому

      Good point!! Maybe I’ll just add a container of strawberries next to the raised beds then!

    @lennapelayo3252 3 роки тому

    Love all the ideas .... also I think that you should plant two of the same on each side it will look whimsical

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому

      I do agree, but that means I need to get ahold of two duplicates 😂

  • @analarson2920
    @analarson2920 3 роки тому

    I love strawberries but i decided the easiest way is raised or elevated teirs you reach easily otherwise they go wild. Blessings.

  • @jenniferholter7610
    @jenniferholter7610 3 роки тому

    I would add a large raised bed for your strawberries between your patio and your bigger gardens. It appears you have just grass there now.

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому

      The grass is going away, it’s going to be woodchips, but I like the idea of adding another raised bed in there!!

  • @TheNakidGardeners
    @TheNakidGardeners 3 роки тому

    Sounds like a plan. Are you hostas in direct sunlight? Thought they would be better in more indirect sunlight.

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому +1

      Mostly direct sunlight pretty much all day after 11am. I didn’t plant them there but they really don’t seem to mind. They’re VERY large, very healthy plants!

  • @Rebecca.Robbins
    @Rebecca.Robbins 3 роки тому

    I really want a green stalk!!!!! I messaged them a month or so ago asking them to PLEASE sell to Canada. They said they would let me know when that becomes a reality!

  • @drekfletch

    I don't know roses much. Are these climbing roses that will pile themselves on top of the arch, or bush roses that will lean on the sides? My grandmother has both kinds, and that'll make a difference how you plant an archway. (Also, roses are fairly easy to take cuttings from.)

    • @SunshineFarm
      @SunshineFarm  3 роки тому

      Climbing roses but not crazy climbers more moderate climbers. I guess if they get out of control I can always prune heavily! Or even transplant!

  • @reshikabrahma4071

    Do same rose on both side
