    Really enjoyed this video. You perfectly edited it. Liked that you got the full habit of most of the plants as well as a close up on the leaves and/or blooms while plant name is on the screen. I'm one of those screen print viewers. Lol. Watched all the ads in full, earned a thumbs up, and this comment. Cant wait for the backyard too! And love how the different hardscape material intersect without looking busy. Your "wordiness" (27:03) is a delight, when it's coming from an expert and plant lover! It's where we amateurs learn!

It is really helpful to have your comments on these plants and all the others including the small ones . It is definitely not too wordy . Thank you for the names of all the plants. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so generously.

I do love how they get bright pink stems, but I'd never thought to take this plant from the farm into the suburbs - really creative on their part. Great video - looking forward to the subsequent video!

Great in a bouquet with Japanese Anemone. I have had it for about 15 to 20 years, and now is sprouting new plants of the root. I propagate plants so I dig them up and sell them.

    HOAs fall into the Globilists agenda. I purposely avoided them whenever I moved. I grow vegetables and herbs in my front yard mixed in with my landscape. People love my landscape. And if they dont too bad. I applaude people getting out and working in their yards. Even new gardeners starting out. They learn year to year and do better every year. Even those with limited resources start and are able to add on each year. Great bonding time with family and friends, great exercise. Brings individual pride that's so needed now when we cant get that in our jobs or country much anymore.

    I love the use of a poke weed for an ornamental. I wish my mother was still alive to hear that. We used to have a clothesline and the poke weed would come up around one of the poles. I thought they were great for hiding the ugliness of the pole, I always thought those purple berries were pretty, I can also remember intentionally staining some of "woods clothes" with those berries. (Those clothes were meant to get dirty anyway. We did not have much money and I knew better than to stain school clothes or heaven forbid, church clothes).
    I am older and more boring now, but I do love lemon grass as an ornamental. They get really tall and vigorous if you leave them alone. I even think they are pretty when they die after the frost as long as the hold their shape.

    Hey Jim I got a flamethrower redbud barefoot back in March as a birthday present for myself of course lol! I wasn’t sure where I wanted to put it so I placed it in a large grow pot and was hoping it would put leaves on but it hasn’t! I paid a good bit really for it! I took it out of the pot and it hasn’t grown any new roots yet so I planted it in my yard here in Alabama! I am hoping it still has a chance! I made sure the grafted area was above soil line! It doesn’t seem dead. The branch and bare root seems strong still and not rotted.
    All that to ask, any tips on barefoot trees? I have do not have experience with them.

    You mentioning wisteria got me thinking that maybe you can do a video on that? I've been having this running argument with other gardeners saying the only good wisteria is a dead one, while they think there's manageable types. That has not been my experience. So called non-invasive types have crazy crazy roots, like nothing I've ever seen. I would love your opinion and maybe you can show some examples of it? One of the videos I watch here is "Watch yer step" the sidestep adventures vlog. He has the most horrific wisteria problem I've ever seen and I'm sure someone once planted that.
