Haha WHAT!!!! That’s definitely a new one for me.

Nope nothing about propagating. Prepping and cutting is the title. I trim it up getting it ready.

​@@devinparker1where is it now?

Thanks that is a great idea. I’ve tried it in the past but ran into an issue with wanting to take a curve and hose I could get it the way I wanted but once I got the edging going couldn’t get it to curve the way or I run into rock or tree roots 🤦‍♂️. Thanks for the nice comment.

In my experience what tends to happen is the one you trace either ends up smaller or bigger.

Haha. I have never noticed that ever. But now that you pointed it out I can’t on see it haha

Omg same. But it’s worth it for next year. Makes for a stronger plant that can take a little more abuse.When the flowers hang it lifts them up off the ground.

Buenos días, puede comprarlo en Home Depot Lowes o en cualquier lugar de ferretería

I never had a problem with that. I never could figure out how they did that to people. I think the flower has to be dried crushed into power. It’s not that Sensitive.(at least to me or anyone around me) and trust me if it was in flower i was always smelling it. Smells so good. I never could get mine to flower in my house only in greenhouse so I wouldn’t worry since it’s not flowering. Hope that helps

Because they eat tons of bugs every night and they are fun to watch as they swoop in at dusk

cedar I believe is the color brand is bear I believe

@@devinparker1 your cute lol. How do you drill them in to the wall any advice getting them for my house!

@@GameHEADtime get a concrete drill bit easier to drill into mortar then put a plug in that when you put the screw in it expands and be holds the bracket in place.

The way I did it you wouldn’t gain anything from beveling the back then you would have to redo the sides. I see what your saying though but this is more of a square house type thing. I do plan on making harder houses but wanted to keep it simple for people to do.

@@devinparker1 Look at your video and freeze it at 7:39. You say you don't want water to get into the junction between the roof and the back. You put 2 screws in thru the back and proceed to bend the roof down thereby opening up a gap there. Just cut the back edge of the roof to fit. What's so complicated about doing that? Set the saw for 20 degrees or whatever the number was and slice it. Don't you see that the roof rests on the 2 side pieces that have an angle to them? You cut the angle. It's for run-off like on any roof. Everybody likes to argue and have excuses to do it wrong. Just do it right.

You are very welcome.

Your very welcome. I recommend doing a couple layers. I wish I would have done like 4 or 5. The just 1 or 2 layers I did last year worked for last year through summer and fall but wouldn’t work for this year. But it looked snd did great. It’s really inexpensive Compton the coconut liners.

@@devinparker1 ooh thank you for the tip. How are your heliconias doing

I free handed it which if you do trim before walls it’s less likely to get on wall if you do it the other way. Wall is the easiest. But it’s got a little space between trim and wall and helps when painting.

@@devinparker1 thanks for The fast reply. The shed is a light green and the trim is a dark green. So I will paint the light color and let it cover the edge of the trim. And I will use a small roller to just put the dark green on the front of the trim, not the sides. If that makes sense. Thanks . I am using a brush on the main body. The house was spray-painted. And the dark green trim added with a roller just on the face. I appreciate your video.

@@ess96720 that is the easiest. On the main walls I would use a roller even if you have to do it a couple times it will save you tons of time.

Oh yea they are pretty tough birds ha ha 😂😆🤭

You know honestly... nothing really. I do know that if it’s a Red Robin nest they will dive bomb you if you get close. Trust me I had to mow by them. Was rough till baby was old enough. So they will protect it but that’s how they like there nest. They do it in trees snd I feel that’s even risky.

@@devinparker1 Maybe if the nests are higher up, it would be better? We had a robin nest in our mailbox 2 years in a row and one on a bush. All perished because of predators. We like to see the birds, but apparently, they don't want to see us They would fly in your face if you looked into the box. So I would say to put them up in a tree or something so a cat can't get to it. We also had a big bird causing trouble near where we live. All the little birds ran him outta town. "It's a jungle out there..."

@@alext8828 only issue I’ve had so far are the dang squirrels fill them up with junk. 🤦‍♂️

It’s doing freest. Yes I can do an update. I actually need to do one for the whole yard. It’s just winter but good time to show Structure.

@@devinparker1 can't wait! I got mine about a year and a half ago and decided to keep it in a huge pot for now. Just haven't fully committed to a spot in the garden to plant it. Looks great and doing great in the pot for now.

@@chrisescobar3979 love the idea of a pot. Would have to be a big one just to keep it from tipping over and to hold rootball. Grows super fast

@@devinparker1 yes has to be a big pot. It has grown so much in just over a year. One of my pleasure in the garden is being able to move it from place to place, making it a center piece or a background filler.

I always zone 7 start mine in mid October around first freeze. Like couple weeks before or couple after. One freeze is it going to kill a bulb.

Ha ha your property right it was

I completely agree. In this instance I didn’t do it because it was the main post for gate door and I was afraid it wouldn’t hold up.

Ha ha okay totally random. Hope you have a great day.

I dont get it the guy was just trying to explain how to make a bird house. He isn't asking you for a date. If you didn't like the video you did not have to watch. Why be so mean????

I completely agree. So much easier to install.

Ha ha yea it has been interesting. Was work getting it already for winter. I was growing plants I had never seen before.

I'll have to double check on mine. I was just going off the leaf structure from what I could see. I will check out the black cherry never seen one here in Oklahoma.

@@devinparker1 I live in Tennessee, and black cherry is very common here, so is tree of heaven.

@@inverseelity1972 what zone is that? I think it’s close to mine 7b but for some reason I think yours is a little higher and you can have more tropical plants.

Yes. I love them so much. Bromansias are the technically name of the Angle trumpet. If you are trying to find one of these plants I would suggest joining a Facebook group. Sometimes when searching for them using the name Angel Trumpet you might end up getting a plant/seed of Datura. Which look similar but Datura is an annual and grows from ground up and Bromansias are more like trees. I have many videos on Bromansias. Don't make the same mistake I did and buy seeds off Amazon most of them are fake. Good luck

I don't have a clue. sorry. I don't even know where to look. I live in zone 7 and have never seen one like that before.

Ha ha never thought of it that way.

I agree it is sad. Have you seen the Sunrise Redbud. It is amazing and looks so cool. I thought about putting one of those in its place.

@@devinparker1 I haven't seen that redbud, I'll have to check that out. I have an eastern redbud. Do you know why the trunk is bending over to the side?

Yea some can get wild. I have in the past trained creeper into Trellises using wire. You see the Diamond shapes on Pinterest a lot. I wish I could post a picture here. It’s nice because in the trellis shape it keeps it’s leaves all year round so it always looks good but you do always have to stay on top of it or it will get out of control

@@devinparker1 I have a big patch of wintercreeper being shared out by honeysuckle bushes, it has been there for years and hasn't died

I’ll have to check it out. I still haven’t hung it up yet. Not sure yet where I want to put it. I know it has to be on a certain side of the house. It’s one of those I know where it supposed to go but where it’s going to go I can’t see the bats going in and I really want to see the bats. So I’m like maybe I should just put a post out in middle of the yard really high up. I really want to make some as well. Those darn things are expensive for what it is.

I wish I could post a picture. I do have more pictures on my Fb page. facebook.com/2384129928269362/posts/4058312584184413/?extid=0&d=n

I wish I could post a picture. I plan on doing another tour here in the next few weeks will be happy to share it with you

Thank you. It really is my slice of Heaven.
