    "Each year when the Hydrangeas bloom, I am reminded again of their stunning beauty. Hydrangeas are one of my favorite plants because they’re so versatile. You can enjoy them indoors as a long lasting houseplant and them shift them outside and enjoy them as a flowering shrub for years to come."

      My hydrangea has been blooming for a couple of years since. I bought her. Luckily she blooms in the Spring! Unfortunately it was white and now it is pink. Like all my flowers range from red to coral to varied shades of pink.

    I grew up seeing P. Allen Smith's segment "From the Garden" on TV. Now, in my late 30s, having just found his channel by happenstance this week, I feel like I have been reacquainted with an old friend. My childhood included years on a small organic farm, and young adult years included landscaping and nursery work, but over the last decade, I have not had an opportunity to garden or connect much with nature; I have missed it. However, I am soon heading back to country living and have found this veritable treasure chest of content just in time for garden inspiration--and maybe even heritage poultry! Thank you, Mr. Smith for your truly invaluable work and contagious spirit. You are a true American gem.

    I once asked my brother-in-law how he kept his hydrangeas such a lovely blue. He ducked his head and mumbled that he peed on the soil around them. I can still recall my sister's facial expression.

It's a Pinky Winky Panicle Hydrangea. First place I went to to learn about the care of these beautiful plants is P. Allen Smith gardening. Great video! I learned a bunch & enjoyed a few laughs!

    I have a couple different types of hydrangeas and my advice for people who live in cold regions (I'm in zone 4) and also if you have deer that eat your hydrangeas is to get the Panicle types. I have a vanilla strawberry that's about 4-5 years old and the deer eat every bud off that thing every winter and it blooms faithfully every year without fail! Our winter's get down to at least -22°F. They are very carefree plants; all I do is trim them and feed them some organic fertilizer every spring and they reward me with the most amazing blooms every year!

    Hello P. Allen! Im so thrilled to find you here on You Tube! My deceased husband and I used to love watching your show on television!
    I wanted to send you a photo of my front lawn and 1940 Craftsman Bungalow in Indiana. I really wanted your advice on how to most compliment my charming abode to achieve the best curbside appeal possible, but my husband took ill and i had to be his caretaker and so I havent even watched tv since he passed in 2014 from when he lost his battle with oral cancer.
    Im going to subscribe to your channel and support you here on You Tube.
    In December 2011 my son took me to Monticello and I was soooo surprised to find all of your P.Allen Smith plants and display at the gift shop lol.
    Anyway, just totally enthralled to find you here on You Tube and will be following along closely. Much love to you 😊💜

From holly to putting a new limelight in a space that is shaded more and a opening that needed to be enclosed. I live in the heights in LR so the houses are close to each other. I love the green tall fencing around the yard that is plant life and your videos have been a great help. Thank you for sharing you knowledge.

I have also learned tree bloomed later. Was thinking in my area it was late crate myrtle bloom not hydrangea tree. This helps so much so I can go find what I’m looking for. Average flower person doesn’t usually understand unique differences 😊🌺 Thank you so much for sharing!

Mr Smith is wonderful. I live in Bedfordshire, England so this is the closest I can get to Moss Mountain Farm. Wish I could visit in person. Would love to meet Mr Smith. What a wonderful, entertaining, knowledgeable gardener. He makes gardening fun. xx

    • @PunkSlap
      @PunkSlap 5 років тому +3

      Jom James For hydrangeas, I use Espoma Holly-Tone and/or Plant-Tone. For roses, I use Espoma Rose-Tone with weekly Alaska fish fertilizer.

    • @PunkSlap
      @PunkSlap 5 років тому +3

      Jom James I do it 2x a year. I fertilized back in late March and again in late June so I am now done for the year. I’m in Zone 5 though so adjust accordingly for your USDA zone. I also use less than the amount recommended by Espoma because I also spread composted mushrooms and/or manure around the plant roots, under the mulch.

    I had 8 hydrangeas in front of my house. They were 4ft tall and cone shape white flowers Every year and the flowers were gigantic. We put tomato cages on them when the leaves just started to come out. They were so big and beautiful and you couldn’t even see the cages. Towards the end of summer we had to tie them. We cut them back to about 12” in Sept. I had cut flowers all summer. (Little giants)

    New York City here. I really enjoyed learning more about hydrangeas! ( I have watched other videos of yours, mostly about roses).
