This episode is really good!
Dear Roy, thank you so much for your knowledge and your help.
You and Piet Oudolf have changed my life (no exaggeration here).
Thank you again and many greetings from Poland! Beata
You are very welcome!
Nice to meet you! I can tell you’re going to be my cup of tea! New subscriber 😊
Yay! Thank you!
Great tip on the Calamintha foliage. It is one of my favorite plants.
Thank you! Mine too!
I have some allium bulbs in my garden, they are beautiful. I didn't know that reseeding was an problem for alliums. Mine don't seem to reseed. I actually wish they did because I'd love some more. I thought they just spread sometimes by the bulbs spreading. Allium summer beauty, I see can be sold as a perennial in soil? I've only ever bought alliums as bulbs! Summer beauty looks more pink than the typical purple allium. I am excited to try it.
Roy, your an inpiration..upon first reading of your book, my head hurt :).. I couldn't quite wrap my head around the concepts.. Now they are integral to my business and planting style.. Thankyou.
thank you!
Yes. Woody plants want green mulch. :)
I need to find seeds for that Yarrow. Really pretty. Quick search - dang... this might be hard to find.
“Breaking News” has me thinking about new planting beds under my oak saplings.
This was your best video so far! Really great information, I learned alot. You seemed much more relaxed, and I loved the sense of humor as well. Nicely done.
Awesome! Thank you!
Cool info on carex thanks!
Loved this episode, thanks for sharing your knowledge
Glad you enjoyed it!
Many thanks from Chile, Southamerica!!
Thanks for watching all the way from Chile!
Thank you Roy. Great video! I so look forward to my morning coffee and your video each day!
Awesome! Thank you!
Excellent thoughts to ponder adding it in my gardening journal 🌺🌾
Wonderful!
So much to learn!!! Thank you for explaining in an organized and easy to understand way. Feeling less overwhelmed and inspired now. Am ordering your book today and hoping that I can find enough plants for (Zone 9) California drought challenges!!! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! thanks for watching!
First time that "Breaking News" hasen't scared me! Great episode.
Another great video! Thanks Roy. We just installed a 2.5" caliper Linden tree in our front yard and I was interested in starting a "carex community" underneath it, but I was afraid of the competition with the yet to be established tree. Your Wilhelm anecdote gave me some encouragement.
That's great ! Good luck!
Delightful, informative, inspiring. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Would enjoy this more if all the plants were native.
Excellent ! Loved it about carex!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the videos Roy! From Toronto
My pleasure!
Love all the detail info. Thanking a master gardener class and can relate to your videos.
fantastic!
I started Calamintha from seed this year. I hope they are the good ones! And I am very anxious to hear more about using carex.
The ones you want do not come from seed. Buy one plant and then you can take cuttings which root easily.
that is very interesting information about carex and oak tree . do you have any idea of the similar companionship of Japanese maple?
sedges compatible with your location should work. Check your local nursery or a botanic garden within the area where you live.
If you have carex as living mulch, can you have bulbs growing through them?
definitely!
Too short a video :( I have little Bluestem coming and looking forward to creating a community with it. I was getting Big Bluestem but cancelled those plants because they are intimidating and too large for my space. I need to find Carex that can live in zone 3!
Carex pensylvanica and Carex amphibola are both zone 3 to zone 9. I'm sure there are others - do a google search for 'zone 3 native Carex' to find more.
@@RoyDiblikThanks for those two names but I should have clarified - I need to find a source for Carex as in Thunder Bay there are few options and very few online nurseries that send by mail. I will see if I can source those two.
