Went to the nursery Saturday in the rain. Got a lot of the perennials on my list to purchase. The petunias were a little limited but it is later than I usually plant mine. Saw Jenny and Jerry from the distance because they were busy. I came 2.5 hours to get to the nursery. Was not disappointed.
Sedum are almost fool proof by me, here in Virginia. Autumn Joy was my original, a huge, healthy thing that has been seeding itself around my garden for years. I now have six of them, all large and showy, that continue to throw off small plants, which I find new homes for. Just found a rather large specimen growing under a Little Lyme hydrangea nearby. John Creech sedum is another great one, which is a ground cover from heaven. Tiny buds, very low to the ground, grows like a carpet. Keeps the edge of a bed, right on the street, neat and tidy. No care whatsoever. My third try at a ground cover there, and this was a complete winner. Lovely green color.
To continue with Jerry’s idea, it would look pretty to have the Summerific Lilac Crush hibiscus in the center (or as a background plant) with the midnight masquerade penstemon surrounding (or in front of it) like he said. But then to ALSO add around (or in front of) the midnight masquerade some of the Rainbow Rhythm Daylily’s; they have the light green foliage like the hibiscus so it would tie in beautifully, plus also be a step down in size to have a really nice three tiered garden bed.
Very informative video! The various nurseries in the viewing area should thank you both for the ideas you give! Too bad we can’t all come visit Creekside!
Yes, this video was indeed, "fun, informative, and inspirational". Your explanation of how to pair different plants together based on color of foliage and height was very helpful.
I’ve got so many of those perennials in my garden thanks to watching your videos. I have to say they are beautiful and thriving. I’ll be adding many more each year 🦋
Thank you for highlighting the annual Surefire Cherry Cordial begonia in some of your other videos. We purchased five from Proven Winners Direct.The foliage is a little brighter here and the whole plant glows red. It is very eyecatching and the quality/health of the plant is outstanding. We are really enjoying them!
Hi Jenny I love the channel I'm in Queensland Australia I really enjoy watching nursery channels. I would love to see more of the behind the scenes. New plant unboxings and potting up would be great. Thanks Ash
Have a pretty old white penstemon that has taken over an area under a Japanese maple over the years. Just dug four mounds up and gave them away. When that stand of plants is waving in the sunlight, it is a thing of beauty. It seeds all over that small area and I constantly dig up little ones all the time. I replant them and they seem to thrive with no issue. Deer and rabbit resistant for sure. Great plant.
Agree that Cat’s Pajama Nepeta is one of the best from PW. I planted 10 two months ago, and they haven’t stopped blooming profusely. The spent blooms really don’t need deadheading. It is just a fantastic plant here in zone 8a, Northern GA.
Good morning, Jenny & Jerry ☕️ Great selection of plants! I love the Edge of Night! I planted a hedge last fall and they’re emerging now! 🙌🏻 Question 🙋🏼♀️ what is growing in the bed behind you, looks like an orchard of some sort? Have a Blessed Day 😊🐶
I’ve had midnight masquerade a few years now, I love it won’t my plant is huge I do wonder if it should be divided. Intended to only buy edge of night hibiscus, ended up with 4 different hibiscus. Love the video this season.
I planted Summerific Hibiscus twice, and each time a green caterpillar skeletonized the entire plant within. Few days. I gave both plants away to someone who does not see that caterpillar in her garden. It is a caterpillar that attacks Brassicas I think.
Well…if you have problems with a known pest you have to treat for it. Regular sprays with Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki (Btk) handles such problems. BT is a natural beneficial bacteria.
Thanks for all the great ideas. Would the midnight masquerade pair well with baptisia (pink lemonade), which is what I was plaining to do. I don't care if they bloom at that same time. They will also be surrounded by some jazz hand loropetalums.
I liked the pairing of the summerific hibiscus with the midnight masquerade and the backlight phlox. I do have a question: if I am using the hibiscus as a bog plant for an area in the garden that stays wet pretty much all season how would the phlox and midnight masquerade perform in those conditions? Would you pair the hibiscus with something else? Thank you! 😊
Any ideas to plant in front of a row of BOBO hydrangeas? I was thinking of something with a burgundy coloured foliage that is slightly lower than BOBO.
What's a perenial that will pair well with he sweet romance lavender? I have the lavender, I planted them last year, but everything I've tried next to them needs more water than they like, so they're struggling a bit.
what ever happened to the heptacodium "Temple of Bloom" shrub you introduced last year? You had it planned for the berm but I noticed you backed out of that. Did it not make it out of trial?
They have public display gardens and those areas are open to the public. The nursery portions itself …greenhouses and growing fields can be toured if you are a licensed nursery or landscape professional. They do have occasional sale to the public events for charity…but otherwise do not sell to the public. If you want to buy Proven Winners you can head to Garden Crossings also in Zeeland Michigan as they sell the full line of Proven Winners plants.
Garden Crossings is a site I have very successfully ordered Proven Winners plants from. They are in Michigan and shipped to me here in Williamsburg, VA. Three of each Oso Easy Italian Ice Roses, Pugster Blue butterfly bushes, and Double Doozy spirea. All came in great shape, packaged beautifully, and waited three weeks to get in the ground. Now all growing beautifully.

The Boom Chocolata geranium is even more stunning in person - the light ultraviolet blooms against the dark foliage 🤩

I'm so happy to hear that you like it! I just adore all of the Surefire begonias.
Jerry has a great sense of design!
Yes he does!
Hi Jenny I love the channel
I'm in Queensland Australia
I really enjoy watching nursery channels. I would love to see more of the behind the scenes. New plant unboxings and potting up would be great. Thanks Ash
I love it when you talk about the plants like this.
Love this episode and Jerry’s suggestions.
I just found out why my penstemon is not thriving - it’s not getting enough sun 😩. Thank you Jenny 🙏

Oh my gosh I need a day trip SC to NC 🤗💓💕💞🌺🌺🌺🌺

Beautiful plants 🌱 Jerry your ideas 💡 are great 👍
Loved this video- zone 5b Michigan- would love another video with perennial pairing ideas!!
Your plants are wonderful selection.
Great video ❤
I want them all🤗🤗

Hi guys. Great information
Good morning Jenny and Jerry 😊

Sure enjoyed this, Jenny.
I'm so glad!
This is a very informative video. Thanks!
have to share this....the closed caption translates you saying Summerific Hibiscus as "some horrific hibiscus" OMG I was chuckling.
Gotta love computers translating my southern accent 😂
Great tips, thank you.
thanks for your ideas on pairings!
Thanks for all the great ideas. Would the midnight masquerade pair well with baptisia (pink lemonade), which is what I was plaining to do. I don't care if they bloom at that same time. They will also be surrounded by some jazz hand loropetalums.
They sure would!!!
That would be stunning!
Jenny, I love your pants they look comfy and cool for the heat!
Also between the two do nepeta and salvia bloom about the same amount?

Good 👍

Awesome video
Thanks for the info. 👍
The penstemon and hibiscus have different water requirements don't they?
Hey Jenny may I borrow Jerry my yard needs his help lol😂 have a blessed day
I don’t see how anyone could be disappointed 😄. The only reason I would be disappointed- is because I’m so far away here up in NY ☹️
Is that an orchard over your shoulder? If so, please tell us about it.
That’s my Dad’s orchard ❤️
How is the new potting machine working out for ya'll and could we get an update on the production bldg?
They showed it planting 🌱 up they’re plants it on a video in there list.
We actually did one yesterday, it will be ready soon
@@GardeningwithCreekside Wonderful! I look forward to seeing it!
Have you started an orchard? 🌸💚🙃 I think I see a peach tree? 🌸💚🙃
That’s my Dad’s orchard ❤️
I can never find cat’s pajamas. I’ve been looking for years!
What's a perenial that will pair well with he sweet romance lavender? I have the lavender, I planted them last year, but everything I've tried next to them needs more water than they like, so they're struggling a bit.
Perennial sedum, Echinacea
Echinachea, roses, yarrow, sedum, alliums, rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano.
what ever happened to the heptacodium "Temple of Bloom" shrub you introduced last year? You had it planned for the berm but I noticed you backed out of that. Did it not make it out of trial?
I ran out of room in the berm 😁
Is Walters Gardens open to the public?
They have public display gardens and those areas are open to the public. The nursery portions itself …greenhouses and growing fields can be toured if you are a licensed nursery or landscape professional. They do have occasional sale to the public events for charity…but otherwise do not sell to the public.

Can we purchase from your nursery
I am out town - I have no access to these gorgeous plants 😮
We are open to the public
@@GardeningwithCreekside I would need to order online
I live in North Texas
Is that a Muscadine vineyard I see behind you?
It's my Dad's orchard
@Gardening with Creekside TY. I couldn't tell if it was trees or grapes. How nice. 😊 I live out here in wine country so I had to ask.
Hi 👋 Jenny 🎉❤
Omg can you ship me to calif that bom chocalata?
Garden Crossings is a site I have very successfully ordered Proven Winners plants from. They are in Michigan and shipped to me here in Williamsburg, VA. Three of each Oso Easy Italian Ice Roses, Pugster Blue butterfly bushes, and Double Doozy spirea. All came in great shape, packaged beautifully, and waited three weeks to get in the ground. Now all growing beautifully.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I want to put Cat's Pajamas between my rose bushes but I can't find them in stock anywhere.
I found some at Home Depot
❤
Do NOT plant Hibiscus with Penstemon. They need totally different water needs!
They can easily be planted together, both are average water needs. Hibiscus can tolerate more water.
I have Hibiscus and Penstemon together and the combination is just fine.
Wonderful, idea filled video. Thanks Jenny and Jerry for all of the information.
Have a great wkend. cgzone8
