You have so much knowledge of plants! I moved to North Carolina from Texas, 10 years ago. Im adding more plants to our Garden, mostly Native plants. There are a few on your list that are Native here. I know the Phlox and Day Lillies do well here. We also have some of the perennial Salvia in our yard. I hope to try some of the plants that we mentioned.
A good part of our front and back yard is mostly shade. We need mostly plants for shade, or part sun. Very little of our yard is full sun. We have a pool that takes up a lot of room. Theres a flower bed around the pool thats full sun. We like colorful flowers, like Hibiscus, around the pool.
We have Indian Hawthorns around the pool, for shade.
We have tall, Leland Cypress Trees around the fence.
I also have many types of Vines, growing on the house and on Arbors.

I find your videos so inspiring! My latest project is to build a few food forests around my property, and I was wondering if you've caught onto this new craze yet. I would love to see some videos covering this. I want mine to be pretty, especially the one out by the street and sidewalk. My plan is to plant Regent Serviceberry as a hedge, with various trees: persimmon, pawpaw, quince, medlar, and bushes: currants, honeyberry, etc. I want an arbor in the middle of the serviceberry as an entrance to the side front yard. I could plant kiwi, but I think that's too vigorous, and am looking into a relatively thornless rose and clematis combination. Please, please consider doing some videos on permaculture/food forests! Thanks a bunch. Oh, I'll have filberts, elderberry and other large things out back!

I had Firewitch Dianthus for years, and they did very well, even though the ants tried to bury them. I have very sandy, acidic soil in northern Indiana. I got rid of the ants by sprinkling compost in the plant area and I'd let them go to seed and sprinkled the seeds within the plant every year. They probably would have died out if I hadn't done that. They mysteriously died out 2 years ago when the flowers didn't seed up. Maybe a decrease in pollinators?
I think I'd love to get the Jacob's Ladder plant, might be pretty with my double flowering orange poppies, sounds like they might bloom at the same time. You listed so many choices! I have a lot of dry shade and deer, so the struggle is real to keep plants looking like eye candy and not deer candy.

Hi Laura. this may be a big ask since I know you don't have Japanese Beetles in your area, but many folks do, including me! Anyway, I really get excited about all the new plants, but I have to double check whether the plants are resistant to Japanese Beetle or not. I have several lists of plants that are supposedly resistant but certain sources actually disagree on certain plants. If you know, would you add this information to your new plants presentations? Actually, I would love it if PW would provide this info on their web site. THANKS! PS: I love your roses, but we have to take ours out due to the JB

I loved these ideas and your porch looks super relaxing. I see you have a potted cypress tree on your left. Sadly, I killed the one I bought trying to make it a bonsai.
Please do a show about Japanese maples and Dogwood. (My 15 year old maple died last year. but left a baby seedling that I can baby along? I found it after I planted canvas waiting for stump removal) Now I don't know where, north or south exposure, to plant the dogwood? May have plant in back for full sun.

hi, I live in South OC California and Oleander are everywhere, mostly used for landscape plants on freeways or for borders between properties BUT I want to mention that as pretty as they are they are extremely poisonous to children and pets. Also there are other plants poisonous to children and pets. Can you address this issue and what NOT to plant if you have children and pets around?

Hi Laura, I was wondering if you would consider making a video about easy flowers, shrubs that dont attract pollinators (bees, particularly) for a beginner planter. Im severely allergic to bees. Always been scared of flowers and gardens, but I love the green so I have been trying to learn. Wanted to say thats for you amazing videos.

High Laura from England. I love your videos and congratulations on the birth of your daughter.
Can you tell me what flowers are deer resistant? We have lots where I live, lovely to look at, but not when they are munching my flowers. The seem to love geraniums, with a side order of lobelia.
