Great video!!! Plant prices have gone way up too!! Where is the midnight marvel??? Would have been the perfect space filler!! Watch that sunburn sweetie! Cheers Todd
Todd, I agree. I’ve noticed plant prices are much higher this year. The Crape Myrtle Tree was already planted in the flowerbed. It’ll bloom red. After driving thru the large parking lots I noticed all the flower beds had small perennial flowers planted underneath the trees. I wanted to stay consistent w/the shopping center. I don’t think the hibiscus would’ve coordinated well w/ the surrounding stores landscapes.
One of my favorite plants for the hot and dry is Little Spire Russian Sage. It goes really well with black eyed Susan’s. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it used in a parking lot island, though.
I will try these on my south wall where everything dies year after year.. Thank you Andrea:)
Hi Kaisa!! We'd love to see pics after they begin to grow. Post pics in our facebook group. Favorite Hobby Gardeners.

I’ll have to check it out. It could be the perfect addition!
Yay!!! This was such a good video Andrea!
Thank you 25caylin25! You're so kind.
Another great video!
Thank you Robert! Keep following, I have more coming.
Can you also share what size midnight marvel you initially bought and planted (ie gallon, 4.5” pot???)
I believe they were one gallon.
Thank you. Have a wonderful Mother’s Day!!
