I have a geum chiloense red dragon I planted in a large flower pot. I live in Minnesota so I stored it in my garage over winter since it's zone 5 and I'm in a zone 4. Brought it back out once spring temps were okay but haven't seen any new growth yet. When does new growth start with geums? I did cut the geum back in fall before storing away for winter. Hoping the plant didn't die. First time geum grower.

Laura, thank you for all your outstanding videos! However, some of us are not familiar with plants names and so like in this video, when you rattled off a bunch of plant names in Latin we got lost and thus your not connecting with us. If you could flash a picture pop-up showing us the type of plant you just named that would be a great help! Again thanks for the great videos!

Ha ha, I did not need to cut back my hostas in my new home. Shortly after I planted them out front, the deer or rabbits had lunch. I moved the two remaining leaves and roots to the fenced backyard and added mesh fencing above the wood fence and plugged all the low level holes under the fence. Te hostas is behind a Rhododendron next to my house. I hope it grows nicely there.

What about hydrangeas in Wisconsin for winter! Someone said to only cut the tops of the flowers off and not the buds, but my boss at work they cut theirs down to the ground and they come back next year fine. I just planted mine this spring though. Do i just take the flower tops off and cover with a frost cover? Or do i cut it to the ground and cover with mulch?

i had 8 planters full of mounding perennial dianthus. last fall i cutback 6 of the planters close to the ground. none of them have grown anything so far as of today. are they dead or should i wait few more weeks? the two planters i did not cut back actually bloomed entire winter and now even more this time.

Thx for this video, I'm a newbie gardener with potted plants, ( my soils not deep here in Manchester uk. I got a nepita this spring and I'm trying to find out if I should do anything now we're in autumn ( fall) to get it ready for winter. Any advice would be truly awesome. Thx again. X

Soo many wonderful projects, nice to see things evolving. Can't wait to see the beautiful potting shed in the orchard, it will be so beautiful with all the windows.
Looking forward to the spring when the Hartley is done, new trees in the grass, bulbs flowering and NEW videos

What exactly do you and your husband do for a living? And do you pay full price for all your plants and everything your plants need? That's gotta be quite expensive, is your husband a millionaire? I am and couldn't imagine spending that much for my yard or garden.
