Thank you for sharing

Can you dead head this plant for further blooming? Mine looked amazing for about a month.

Thanks for doing this and giving a good idea of what you did to get these results. I value this

Does this grow in Texas? I live in deep south texas on the Rio Grande River.

I love this video discussing the beauty of native wildflowers! I have some in my yard that I tried to show off to my family, but they just called them weeds. I may send them this video.

This is so cool! I cant believe our ancestors left this! Is this all going to work in the desert climates? I just moved to a new house and they had grass but it was neglected and full of crab grass and weeds so i killed it off and im not sure what to do with it yet.. I have to research how to start that grass over… but i dont know of we have worms? Can something be used besides grass?

👍🏻

my favourite plant. They are monsterously impressive at full bloom. I dont find them to be "aggressive". They just do really well. I even hack back some of mine when they get a couple ft tall. They regrow and bloom a little later and less so. They dont get as big. I feed the cut stalks to my rabbits. They relish the roughage apparently

Can you transplant them after they’ve flowered and gone to seed?

Does it matter if it rains alot? Say a month straight

Is it just me or are these the slowest growing seedlings ever?

Genuine question I see cats in my neighborhood and stuff like that. Well, I have to worry about them using the bathroom in the compost pile. I don’t think that would be any good but I really don’t know. My instinct tells me it’s not a good thing to happen. Thank you for the video and trying to keep stuff simple man.

Thanks for the video, I have Mels books and I am about to start his S/F garden. but its is very costly to buy the components. Mulch vermiculite and compost. I am going to try your method for compost to save some $$$$, My question is can I use the wood ash from my bonfires in the compost pile.

Perfect I'm definitely gonna grow it.

Thanks for sharing!! Will be using this for reference while I try to grow mine! (:

My favorite insect ever ❤

So compost Is worm shit 🤔

I seen them white too on road side. And it smells awful....

What is the name of the book you mentioned in the video?

I get lawn treatments about every 4-6 weeks. Could I use the grass clippings from my lawn or should I avoid it because of the weed killers and fertilizers they spread?

Deadheading 5:14...this is for me for quick reference. Great video! 😊

Hey there,I have just come across your video while researching how to collect the seeds of these beautiful flowers..I live in England..This is the first year I have grown them properly,I didn't realise you grow the seeds & the first year you just get the leaves(I let mine die off the first time because they didn't flower how I thought they would,what donut lol)..Anyway this year I actually grew them to there full potential & they flowered,I wasn't expecting them to be as beautiful as they were,when they flowered they were beautiful,but then they flowered properly & they were absolutely stunning,the curves to the flowers are just beautiful..I am hoping I can either collect the seeds or they will self seed,but I need to put them in a bigger tub to make sure I collect them in the soil,instead of loosing them in the grass.. I fed them this year with some blood fish & bone & some chicken manure pellets,I didn't go mad,just a bit & they look amazing,I have fell in love with this flower..just wished I lived in America so I could watch all the little hummingbird..Great video,thankyou for putting in the effort to make the video & share your knowledge,it is greatly appreciated🤘🏻☮🤘🏻☮

Thanks. Excellent review. Clear, comprehensive and knowledgeable.

I wonder if I can plant this directly into soil in June?

Outstanding tutorial thank you !!!

I had an app and every time I scanned one of my plants... every time it was a " philodendron".!!!! App sux

Fun to watch. I need to get rid of a whole ugly row of nandina/barberry (((what were the landscapers thinking???))) I am not about to get my 64-year old self (female w/arthritic hands and knees) out there and do what I just watched you do. 😂 But, for someone physically able, this was a straightforward instructional video. Still, not sure the barberry would allow you to get all up in its business. Lol

Great video and some fantastic tips 👍👍👍

Can You put dog Poo un the compost??

Super informative, very easy to understand. Good job Thank you

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30) Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. (Psalms 51:1-4)

I just did this to all my asters. Thanks for showing the differences Joe!

I don’t have sawdust or Amazon packages, would sticks and Bark work and what would be the best way of processing them without a wood chipper

My bergamot has flopped over. We did have a storm that blew down trees recently. If I prop it up, will it start holding itself up after a while?

Watched your video on compost 6/9/24. I don't have grass clippings. What's the next best thing for the green portion? I have access to coffee grounds, will that work?

4:14 interesting, I had some creep across the fence from my neighbors, not sure if that was rhizomes or seeds

Best composting video so far. You make it so easy

How long does it take to show signs it's working? Could I reapply the next day or a week later to give it extra incentive? I have a big Bradford pear stump and need to make sure it doesn't come back.

This is JUST what I'm looking for. You have so many natives I want. Do you ship to Canada?

The diagonal version is brilliant!

Being so short-lived I'm actually going to try and see what happens if it self-seeds. Mine get sun only about 4hs a day and is gloriously tall! Under a blue fir tree, I guess it's moist enough. Zone 5 here in Quebec, with heavy snow

Great video! Just FYI - The indication of neurotoxicity is primarily from the skin and seeds. Pawpaw can contain high concentrations of annonacin, which is toxic to cortical neurons. You would have to eat a lot or eat the skin and seeds. The bark extract induced an allergic reaction in Guinea pigs. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22130466/

Does it cool off eventually when the material is broken down?

Great video! Very helpful and I will definitely use this info next year 😊 Unfortunately I did a very aggressive chop on my coreopsis about 2 weeks ago. They had bloomed beautifully but then got hit by several heavy rains and had flopped horribly. I thought about staking them but they were too heavy and overgrown I chopped them back almost to the ground thinking they would re-grow Their stocks have turned brown. Do you think I’ve killed them?

Can u use torpedo grass that continually pops up in my mulched areas. Thanks. Great video

This explains why the milkweed I grew in my loose "foresty" soil put out leaves so fast, even though the water drained right through the pot. Meanwhile the milkweed I grew in more compacted bag soil took a bit. Thank you! I'll probably carefully repot the latter into the same looser soil.

I heard that. Longtime gardener but new subscriber, always learning and your topics hit close to home (being just South of you). Going back through your catalog and looking forward to new videos. Best!

Please do not use a shovel. Use a spade. Look at a deck of cards to know what a spade looks like.

I've noticed leafcutter bees (which I introduced into my property) prefer redbuds for their building material. The leaves of several trees look like someone has taken a hole punch to the edges of hundreds of leaves.

Thank you so much im learning
