The first video - ua-cam.com/video/IWfrJxuz4Sg/v-deo.html - Thanks for watching!
Excellent collection of trees and gardens. I could spend days listening and learning from Kim Sheers about her experiences at the Morton Arboretum.
Love the Cedar Elm praise! I grew up in deep south Texas and these trees are TOUGH. No human care, extreme drought, temps of 105F and it doesn't phase them at all. And somehow it's cold hardy to zone 5! It definitely deserves respect and should be planted much more.
Thank you for sharing such wonderful people and places with these latest videos. If I could get a “do-over”, there is no doubt I would become an educated plant geek of one sort or another. I was hanging on Kim’s every word. 💚
(I actually have two button bushes)!
If I got a do over I’d choose the same!
When you do one of these tours with experts in the field I think that one was the best and I learned so much but it just keeps going and going. Wow! Jim you could start a side line business taking groups on these tours and make so much. I know I would be first in line. lol Thank you
I've thought about it many times! Maybe one day soon.
@@JimPutnam put me on your list of future customers. 👍
Me too!
Man Jim you did it again excellent info., if I was in your NC area I would most definitely consider going on day trips to learn more....
@Leigh ToddI have the same appreciation for Jim and the content he presents. Im am used by your choice of words to express it. “You could make so much”. Is there a way to express you appreciation without doing so within the perspective of Capitalism is king?
Thank you for sharing the Morton and Kim with us! It's indeed a special place,
I loved this! Thank you for giving us a window into the world of people who develop these amazing plants!
You have such a talent for finding and interviewing fascinating people. Even if people weren’t into plants I bet they would listen to her lecture. Her passion for what she does just overflows. The art there is also amazing! This is definitely going on my need to visit list.
Jim and Stephanie. you produce the most educational and interesting content. I just love everything about the plants. I love meeting the plant people that you meet with whom I would never even know about and would never have the chance to meet. Seeing their knowledge and passion is really uplifting and inspiring for me. Thank you so, so very much.
Doing work with trees is important for the planet. To know the results of that labor might not take place until after you are gone is thought provoking.
My family and I have spent many hours at the Morton Arb. We’re so lucky that it’s only a couple miles away. I learn something every time I go there, and your two videos with Kim were very informative. I’m going to look for these trees next time! Thank you!
Absolutely fascinating! What interesting work and what an interesting woman. So enjoyed this video. Thank you. 😊
There may be some who feel that this conversation is a bit more on the scientific side, but I must say I really appreciate learning about how trees are developed to withstand our changing weather and/or pest/disease pressure. It makes a lot of sense really - leveraging plants with the traits you need to develop more resilient ones…
Very interesting Jim! Thank you for creating both videos and for giving us a taste of Kim’s knowledge and passion!
Thanks for watching them!
We can learn so much from the trees, our gardians of the planet 🌳🌲
Kim is a wealth of information. The Cedar Elm goes to show us how adaptive some species can be in order to survive. Beautiful tree and yes, it looks like a Christmas tree.
I love the button bush and had one when I lived in the Chicagoland area. However, as she mentioned they are not drought tolerant and do not survive in Texas zone 8A. Maybe one day I can get my hands on one of those experimental button bushes from the southwest.
Thank you Jim. This was an excellent learning tour with you and Kim.
To say that this two-part is fascinating is like saying a most-spectacular sunrise/sunset is "pretty". How often do we say 'somebody ought to do something about (fill in the blank)...Kim IS doing something with her research. Thank you and Stef for sharing with us. Appreciate y'all!!
Thank you so much!
Kim is fascinating! Thanks for interviewing her.
Great information, as usual! That Human Nature exhibit is such a bonus, I visited 3 times since it was installed.
SWEEE-T, MUCH APPRECITED!💚
It's encouraging to know that there are people such as Kim doing this important work. Fascinating video. I hope that the parrotia hybrids work out and will be available to gardeners. Such a beautiful tree.
Wonderful video! Thanks Jim & Stephanie
Be seen the vine maples in Oregon. Breathtaking.
Great video with someone incredibly knowledgeable whose ethusisam is contagious. Learned a great deal from this.
Loved the video, thank you 🙏
Are you going to tour the DALLAS ABORETUM? It's amazing! No, not the summer... haha. Late fall or spring. Probably spring with all their tulips. But honestly, there is so much there, including infrastructure, you could probably make a week long educational series.
BTW thanks for this series. It's very enjoyable!
She’s kinda awesome. Jim, you and Stephany inspire me. It’s nice you both enjoy all things plants. I’m going to be dragging my partner across the country to visit arboretum.
Great show! Not sure this applies to buttonbush, but lots of swamp plants are also unusually drought tolerant because swamps can get so dry.
Oh yeah, lots of low country plants in eastern NC are incredibly drought tolerant. The riparian plants are typically ones along streams and permanent wet areas that just dip their toes in the water, but don't want to ever be in water.
Loved this thanks for showing.
Hello! Thank you for the interesting video. Happiness to you👍👍👍🌻
Thank you for watching!
Exceptional. Thank you.
Texas here -- I love our cedar elm! It's a great tree!
Even more interesting than the first video somehow! Cheers.
Thanks for watching them!
Pretty technical but very interesting.
It did get a little technical there. Thank you for watching!
Love to see a garden from
Charleston south Carolin
Very interesting video series!
Was there any mention about tree breeding and the Spotted Lanternfly?
Wao amazing
Beautiful 💕
I bought a parrotia subaequalis from Nurseries Caroliniana after your tour video over there and having seen it on the video with Dirr earlier. The one in this video is the biggest I've seen a picture or video of. I has a really nice shape during summer for sure and of course the fall color is incredible. Hopefully it will do ok in these hot summers here in Dallas and my alkaline soil. I know they are growing it over at SFA University which is southeast of me so the heat shouldn't be a problem, but their soil is slightly acidic so I'll just have to wait and see how it does around here.
Oh wow! Good luck with it. A favorite of many people.
I LOVE button bush, just being introduced to it byJim recently (and Jenny at Creekside Nursery). But will they work in areas that are not wet but have irrigation? Surprisingly, I have relatively well-draining soil in North GA (probably from decades of cultivation) and a lot of space for understory planting under 50-foot plus trees with lots of filtered light. Any chance these could work AND bloom for me?! 😄
With irrigation, it should do very well.
Just an FYI, Proven Winners has a "dwarf" button bush (still gets 5+ feet tall/wide) called Sugar Shack which also gets red fruit making it extra showy.
@@shawnfox7393 Thanks, Shawn, that is exactly the variety I was considering! Five feet would be perfect for my plans. 😄
My Sugar Shack is planted in an area of my garden that is usually wet but not this summer due to unusual drought. It's doing well with fairly minimal supplemental water. (Zone 6b Lower Hudson Valley NY)
I wonder what the juvenility would be for a new rhododendron shrub? Specifically, the ‘Taurus’ cultivar? Also, very interesting about the human pollination of the parrotia tree!
A rhododendron from seed might have juvenility period, but likely yours is a clone of another plant and therefore bloomed the first season.
What's with the NCState bias? There's more to American gardens than NC State alumnae and contributions.
shes chirping like a bird.
Some day when Jesus comes back people will live longer than the trees that they plant. [Isa 65:22 KJV] 22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree [are] the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
