I love ”blue” plants. They set off other garden colors so beautifully.
Me too!
I listen to you at work in the mornings, but I do listen to you at home too. But I had a customer come in and when he got to the counter he said, “Cool, listening to Putnam!” I said, “ YES OMG I love him!” Two strangers talking about gardening and Jim Putnam!! I love it!!!
Oh wow! That's cool to hear! Thanks for following along!
Some are hardy to zone 6 and 7 have a new Mexico agave for a few years zone 7 south New Jersey very sandy soil . The plants can take the cold it's the moisture in the cold winter that can can rot them. If you have a overhang or someway to keep.them drier under cover that helps
We were vacationing in Savannah several years ago and the house next door had a contain with a huge blue agave. I asked about it and was told to help myself to the babies underneath. There were two and I have loved having them in a planter, and paying it forward with the babies. Blue plants always make me happy!!!☺️
Perfect timing, I just got my agave from Plants Delights today. I wasn’t sure about planting it. So thank you for your informative videos. I watch you almost every day. I live in the same zone as you in Alabama so your videos are so helpful.
Zone 7b, Edmond, OK. 👏🌵👍Thank you for the planting instructions on the stunning, water-wise agave! I'm in my 3rd year establishing a water wise gravel garden in a very difficult area, and it is hard to find resources for these plants in zone 7. I'm sure it will come in handy for others.
Awesome. Good luck with it!!
I'm excited to try this in zone 7a PA. Great planting tips
Hummingbirds love their flowers! Have seen them at PDN-JLBG and JCRA.
Had one bloom locally here last summer. It made the front page of the newspaper.
Blue agave gets huge. They also absolutely hate being replanted once they start to mature after a couple years. Whats your plan for moving it after a coupl2 of years?
Looks great there Jim!
I'm always surprised to see how zone 8 plants will overwinter here in N. Georgia with the barest of protection as long as they can stay dry in winter. Hard to believe but a Vermillionaire Cuphea in a big container is popping up! We had an 18° night & it was just grouped with others under a story high porch. I LOVE when that happens 👼
I really enjoy ur video ...well explain I continue to wish u the best with ur garden ..the landscaping is very attractive ...I am now into agave plants.
Yayyyy! Love Agave’s. Can’t wait to see it progress🌳🌳🌳🐕
I just got an agave plant given to me. I am landscaping my front yard & thank you for your info. I will subscribe.
In 8b Central Texas there.are lots of agave as you would expect. The blue color looks cool on blazing hot days.
Cool addition to the landscape!
Hello from So Cal! I garden in zone 9b. Ovatifolias are more likely to grow 5-6 ft wide which is why I don’t have any in my succulent garden beds. However, they are stunning! 🤩💙
I am growing Agaves indoors and can confirm they require well draining soils. Unfortunately in my Indiana zone 5b Agaves are not hardy here. There is one species widely touted hardy to -20°F Agave perryi that I am considering planting.
Thank you for this helpful video. I, too, just got a small Agave (parrasana) from PDN. Hoping you would "go first" and show us how to plant one in the ground.
Perfect timing! I have one to plant too!
I love this colour 💕
Thanks Jim🌷💚🙃
Thanks for watching!
I remember in Plants vs. Zombies 2 Chinese version, there is an agave plant that uses a sword.
Very cool plants!
Great looking plant! Never heard of permatill probably could have used that when I tried to grow Texas Sage in Oklahoma it did not like clay at all even amended. I enjoy hearing about where plants originated & find Southwest species very interesting.
Jim Agave are awesome Beautiful plants, so what about winter time when it gets very cold or buried in snow I'm in 6B sometimes it get Very cold what's your opinion ❓
I may have to get one of those and treat it as an indoor/outdoor in my zone 6b
Looks great Jim!
Jim- what is your opinion on pruning winter-damaged leaves on Agaves? I pruned our large blue agave for that reason in the backyard (zone 8a) and am kicking myself a little bit based on how it looks… thank you for all of the wonderful content and information! Your videos are the best!
when will you teach holly to spread wood chips?Love her cameos!
Have you got snake plant/ mother-n-law tongue planted outside? If so does it winter over well? I am in SE TN and would love the strong structure they offer as well as the gorgeous Century Plant in the ground/bank.
Nice 👌
Do you know if this one will be a pupping agave or a running one bc there is ones that will run and send up new plants
There are massive ones planted here and there in the south, 4-5 feet -- but I'm guessing that may be another variety.
There are some that can get over 6'.
Would something like Permatil work as a base material for a container planted hydrangea?
For sure!
Hi Jim! What is that plant with yellow flowers?
Oops never mind I see you already answered someone previously- thx!
Nice. Can you tell me the name of the yellow flowering plant on the right?
It is actually a tall buttercup (Ranunculus acris). Most people would call it a weed. It is non native, but literally everywhere. I let the bees have at them and then pull them. It is similar to our native marsh marigold.
@@JimPutnam Thanks for the reply! I think I'll leave the one growing in my garden for a few more weeks then.
🙋
That alot of plants at the street are deer bad do they eat your plants
