Please remember to press the like button [thumbs up button] for Rosy, she gives SUCH good advice and it will help her channel. I've only recently subscribed but every video teaches me something I didn't know before, she's down to earth, experienced, and makes it easy to understand. Thanks Rosy 😄
Thank you for this. Last year I didn’t have time to plant some perennials so I filled an unused empty raised bed filled it around the pots with shredded leaves and covered with frost cloth with good results next spring.
I love the way you say aluminum! It's so different than how i hear it said that I didn't even know what you were saying at first, but I even prefer it said the way u say it. Thank you for the advice,much needed.
Perfect timing ⏱️ thanks pal. I wish I saw this video last year, I took my salvia hot lips down to the ground last winter and it died 💀 😢 however I did save the seed and every single one took and has flowered this year….I will not be doing that again now Iv seen this ✂️ 🛑 💋🌱 thank you 🙏
The best way to protect a plant in a greenhouse with an earth base is to dig a big hole, and place the plant in it , below soil level. Do not back fill. The residual heat in the soil at say 30 cm down will always be above freezing.Cover top of hole with a few layers of fleece. Ventilate on mild days.
Horticulture student in the US. So Rosie, just a question on the watering of plants in pots throughout the winter. You specified with the guara that you should cease watering until spring. Does this mean ALL watering? Because to my knowledge going in once every month to two months to do a quick watering ( depending on substrate and species size) was recommended to me. However, you cease ALL watering together ? Should this be consistent with ALL of my plants ? Can’t thank you enough for your channel. Me and a fellow student watch your show religiously. And can’t thank you enough for this Incredible free resource.
Most of these plants are much hardier depending on you location. Do not cut back to ground level and if you can leave most growth there on both Rudbeckia and Echinacea until the spring. The Lupinus give a tidy up to around 6 inches/15cm from ground level.
Very helpful. Curious to know, could I bring my pots into the greenhouse and surround them with a layer or dry bark mulch? Will that help insulate the pots?I use a hoop house to grow tomatoes in the ground. I live in Zone 5. I have had some survival in large pots but I was thinking of digging up some dahlia tubers and storing them in gallon pots. ...
Rosy best advice for amistad pleas. I lost a healthy plant last year which I left out. I saved the other in a greenhouse and I tool cuttings which I have planted out this year. What's my best option?
Great advice for overwintering Salvias. I just wondered if they needed any watering if not much? I took cuttings last year and most of them took but I put them in the cold frame and it wasn’t warm enough so I will leave them in the greenhouse this year.
Yes in the greenhouse will be fine do not over water during the winter. If full grown plants perhaps once a month. If cuttings mist occasionally but give them good ventilation, that is the key thing.
Thank you for the useful information. I've got a new and still small Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm' in a container. How can I bring this plant over winter without a greenhouse?
I dig mine up and stack them against the house wall, under a porch. Amistad is a hit and a miss so I always take cuttings but Hot Lips has survived 4 years in a row. Main enemy of salvias is water.
If they’re in a frost free place, then you can give them a dribble sparingly when they get bone dry. I tend to take cuttings every year and root them in pots on my window ledges in the house, I water them barely at all

Bubble wrap??? Never thought of that. Brilliant! And just had a load come with a shipment, yay!
I built a small greenhouse with a rabbit cage and bubble wrap. Works fantastic!
Thank you. Always very helpful. It's never to late to learn, or even re-learn !!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE
Thank you!!! Are you reading my mind? Great timing! I had all these questions!
Very good information before winter in zone 5 - thanks ..
Thank you for this. Last year I didn’t have time to plant some perennials so I filled an unused empty raised bed filled it around the pots with shredded leaves and covered with frost cloth with good results next spring.
Watching you cut your begonias in full flower was shocking! I appreciated it. I laughed at your t-shirt. Thanks!
Very helpful advice. Many thanks Rosy. We lost a number of plants last winder.
Thanks Rosie
Thank you, very useful information.

Greetings,
Is all this advice only if one has a greenhouse?
Cheers
Brilliant help... thank you Rosy
Invaluable information 🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you Rosy
Perfect timing ⏱️ thanks pal. I wish I saw this video last year, I took my salvia hot lips down to the ground last winter and it died 💀 😢 however I did save the seed and every single one took and has flowered this year….I will not be doing that again now Iv seen this ✂️ 🛑 💋🌱 thank you 🙏
Following Doug Tallamy to save pollinators and wildlife and not cutting stems until spring.

In my area, it's 4 ft down to the frost line.
I keep all my polystyrene boxes and put my plants in those over winter in the greenhouse

Enjoyed this...would like next time if possible to learn about Geraniums
Bubblewrap! Genius!!
I dont cut anything to the to ground before spring.
Thank you so much for your advice. Do you have any tips for Rudbeckia, echinacea and lupins for autumn/winter care. Many thanks and best wishes.

V useful and timely advice. Thank you.

@@rosyhardy18 Thank you very much 😉
When you bubble wrap the base Do you need to wrap the bottom of the pot as well?
Yes, wrap the whole pot
Hi, do you have a video if the same plants in the earth?
Thank you, i really appreciate it
Thank you for the useful information. I've got a new and still small Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm' in a container. How can I bring this plant over winter without a greenhouse?
Great advice , I have salvia hot lips and Amstrad and have no greenhouse, should I try and protect them outside or is it a lost cause?
You can try to protect outdoors yes. It is easier with hot lips to succeed.
I dig mine up and stack them against the house wall, under a porch. Amistad is a hit and a miss so I always take cuttings but Hot Lips has survived 4 years in a row. Main enemy of salvias is water.
Great tips 👍
Do you recommend watering geraniums when overwintering?
If they’re in a frost free place, then you can give them a dribble sparingly when they get bone dry. I tend to take cuttings every year and root them in pots on my window ledges in the house, I water them barely at all
What’s that big green plant called???
How can I overwinter Hollyhocks in pots
It’s best to move them into a frost free place like a garage or in an unheated room indoors.
Just show me how too water them. That’s all I need too know.
this is you purple 🪻🌻🌷
