    Is it best to buy from a nursery or ok to buy from box store like Home Depot? We are new to gardening/landscaping so didn't know if we should start with cheaper plants from a box store. Our backyard is completely dirt right now so we are starting with nothing and trying to landscape on our own. Is there a place you'd recommend in the Raleigh area? Thanks for making these videos- we just started binge watching them and they are very helpful!

    • @JimPutnam
      @JimPutnam  3 роки тому +4

      Shop where you want to shop. I do like supporting local businesses, but I also know many of the great nurseries and people who grow the plants for box stores. They are all grown with care in the US.

    This advice should include transplanting as well. I tried relocating some plants, but a few plants didn’t survive in the 90 degrees heat wave. I also bought some plants from the store that almost dried out in the pot. Best to wait until the fall, which means late October or November. In September, there’s a thing called Indian summer where all time high temperatures last for a few weeks after a week or two of cooler temperatures that turned out to be a false indicator of fall’s arrival.

    UPS just dropped off 3 Shi Shi Gashira white camellias, 3 Autumn Ivory Encore azaleas, a Lunar Lights Sterling Moon begonia today and I have a Little Honey Oakleaf Hydrangea and a Holy Grail Hibiscus coming at the end of this month. I am in zone 8b and it's still hot and humid here but all but the hibiscus is going under a river birch tree so I think it will be okay. I'm going to take your advice and plant them now. I must say however, finding plants you have your heart set on can be difficult to find still.

      I live in Michigan and fall is an excellent time to plant, divide and move, transplant. Get it done by early to mid October and you’ll be fine. Don’t forget to add mulch and dried leaves to the root zone for winter protection and you still have to make sure they are not ever drying out until the ground freezes.

    Never understood why more people in the South don't plant in the fall. I garden in 8b where summers are brutal. The things I plant in spring were unavailable in fall or some annuals like zinnias. Don't know about gardening in the North. Winters in Michigan where I went to grad school were fierce. It may depend on whether you can get nursery orders before frost.

      I would ask them to order things for you or perhaps drive out a little further. My nursery friends say they are getting good orders right now. So someone definitely is still bringing things in
