    A great list! I live in zone 9 Louisiana, and unfortunately hydrangeas are so finicky here it’s not worth it. I had the limelights in part sun and still had to water daily; still only got sad little flowers before they shriveled and died. Azaleas, viburnums, and gardenias are all very very popular here. I would like to add to this list (for us in zones 8b+), oleanders, callistemon, brunfelsia, and cape plumbago all thrive and are perfect for our climate.

    I'm in the same 7b zone (pnw) as you and love the in-depth details of PW newest arrivals. I installed a water feature in 2021 and have to finish landscaping around it. It's a tiered, hilly 90' x 15' space. 1/2 is in full sun all day and the other side has am sun and shade. This video is a huge help in getting my project finished up this year.

    Ginny, so very timely. After last year, here in Virginia, I am looking for drought resistant, low growing, good in clay soil plants. You mentioned two, the Pugster Blue and the Beyond Pink caryopteris (sp?) that will be perfect. I am going to visit my local nursery this week to ask. Otherwise it’s a trip to a bigger nursery but definitely worth it. This is very valuable information and a great beginning for the spring. Thanks so much. Again, wish we were nearer to Creekside. Let us know when you are ready to start shipping. Such a great extension for your business.

Your suggestions are wonderful, especially the punster. I can see more than a few of them replacing other not successful specimens. Nice to start to think about gardening again.

    Hi Jenny, I have a question about cutting hydrangeas for arrangements during blooming season. Should I cut the flowers shorter so the stems can grow new blooms or it doesn’t work like that? I always feel weird cutting the stems longer like I’m taking away blooms. Thank you so much for this great video! I struggle with clay in Texas and keeping things alive between the droughts and water restrictions and the occasional prolonged ice.

    This was great! I was taking notes as you went. You said on the caryopteris to cut back hard in early Spring. They are only 2 ft tall so are you saying to cut the to half size or 2-3" above ground? Sorry to sound picky. I just want to do it right. I always appreciate you. Thanks

I’m cutting out dead trunks one at a time and really want to rejuvenate them. My Daddy planted them 30+ years ago and I’d love to keep them now that I live in our family home.

    I have a love hate relationship with azaleas. I don’t like them after they bloom. I have decided to rip mine out this spring. I’ve just had it with them. They are so spindly looking after blooming. They are too fussy about pruning. I only like them when they bloom. So I am getting rid of them. I’m really struggling with what to replace them with. I live in zone 6 and the bed faces east. I want color…not just a spring bloomer. So I am struggling for sure!

    How do you keep deer from decimating your hydrangeas? I was also under the impression that hydrangeas must have acidic soil? I live in the South and other than oak leaf hydrangeas, I have yet to see any other hydrangeas.

      They most likely will be fine. Wait until spring before you make any decisions or trimming. They should flush out new growth once warmer temps hit.
