can you do the whole lawn for dormant seeding even if some areas arent as thin in parts? thanks!
Yes, you can. That being said, September and early October is a great time to overseed as well.
@@WascoNursery but a lot cheaper and less headache doing dormant my water bill will thank me haha
Do you ever ship trees to Eastern Minnesota?
Great question! Unfortunately we do not typically ship out of state. If you are looking for a large quantity of trees (25-50), you can email sales@wasconursery.com and we can look into freight options for you. If you just need a couple of trees, we have many customers who will bring trailers or large trucks to fill them up with trees, and we will help load and prep them for long-distance transport.
@@WascoNursery Thanks. Good to know. I'm undecided on how many trees. I am going to need a few large trees for immediate coverage and some smaller ones that I can wait for them to grow. All of the Spruces (5) behind my house are dead from either the fungal disease or too much shade or both. They were fully grown and provided screening from the Malt-o-meal factory behind my house! I'm thinking of taking out every elm and replacing the Spruce with Thuja green giants. I will definitely keep ya'll in mind.
One of the worst smelling flowers of all time.
Very true! That is just one of the many reasons we do not recommend planting them.
Hi, I have a small garden area for my birds and Hummingbirds and butterflies. I need to know, what mulch, if any, should I use in my garden?
Great question - for our perennial gardens, we typically use leaf mulch by Midwest Trading. It is a fine-shredded natural product that is great for covering perennials over winter and preventing weeds, without inhibiting the growth of the perennials. For new plants it is good to cover them completely over winter, and then pull the leaf mulch away in the spring. Fine shredded mulches are fine as well, just make sure not to bury the plants or have mulch touching their stems while they are actively growing.
I know our magnolia has had scale previously (and has been treated), but can you tell me if the scale causes the leaves to turn brown and fall from the tree prematurely? It seems that soon after our tree leafs up for the season, I have brown leaves falling on the lawn below.
The magnolia scale insect produce a byproduct that can turn leaves black. Their damage from sucking the nutrients out of trees could cause leaves to turn brown as well. I recommend continuing to treat the tree with the 3 step process if you are still seeing visible scales, as well as adding BioPak Stress Relief fertilizer into your care regimen. www.wasconursery.com/product/biopak-plus-stress-relief-fertilizer/
My tree is huge how do I spray it?
Great question - If the tree is very large, we recommend contacting a local arborist to treat it. Please make sure that they are a reputable company, and that they are spraying every 2 weeks starting at bud break (usually April) with a systemic fungicide (4 total applications).
@@WascoNursery Sounds very expensive, no?
Oaks are huge and unless you can get a columnar oak . You cannot use them in a residential yard . Squirrels can do a lot of damage with digging and planting walnuts or acorns all over. Maybe in the oak woodland setting .
Can you pick n plant these seeds?
In nature they will reseed readily, so it is possible that you could pick and plant them. That being said, it is much easier to grow arborvitaes via propagation rather than by seed due to their germination rate and conditions. I recommend reading the Manual of Woody Landscape Plants by Michael A. Dirr, if you are looking to get into growing / propagating arborvitaes.
Please clarify when you said hot full sun. The zone matters greatly. I followed the same advice regarding Hydrageas and I regretted it 😢. My hedge of 9 limelight and limelight primes roasted. Huge loss, all were 3 gallon plants. Zone 8b Texas and they are on daily irrigation. They looked good through spring but became toasted in my Texas summer😢.
Thanks for the question. Hot sun in Zone 8b should be fine for Limelight Hydrangeas, which are hardy into zone 9 even. The cause of death for your plants was most likely due to over or under watering (watering too frequently and not allowing the soil to dry out, or from not giving the plant enough quantity of water to thoroughly soak them each time they are watered). Panicled Hydrangeas do not like to be watered every day. They, like many other heat-loving plants, would like to be thoroughly soaked (5-10 minutes slow trickle), and then allowed a few days to dry out for their entire first year. In our area, we recommend a drying out period of around 4-5 days for 3 gallon hydrangeas, due to our heavy clay concentration. In your area, it may be more frequently, i.e. every 3-4 days, if your soil composition is lighter / more sandy. Watering every day with an irrigation system is not a good approach for newly established plants. We have a couple other videos on our page for how to properly water plants, as well as a guide (for Northern Illinois), on how to water new plants: www.wasconursery.com/plant-care/care-of-new-plants/
Personally I don't think irrigation is the answer for shrubs in really HOT sunny zones...I found that out the hard way as well. Now I water with the hose directly in those areas and this way I KNOW it's getting alot of water and I am looking at those plants more frequently because I am standing in front of it watering it. I can adjust accordingly to my watering.
Your channel inspired me to plant a bunch of oak trees at my property and my parents :)
I am so glad to hear that!!
Thanks for sharing, Matt! Love the content!
Thanks for watching!
Great video with clear and to the point info, thanks. Am going to start with the Annual drench right away and since it's almost late august, will also spray the systemic to kill crawlers maybe a week later.
Thanks for watching! I would try to order the spray soon, because the crawler stage might come early this year due to the heat and humidity. The drench would be good to apply now.
Will a Japanese maple grow well in zone 7b? And how much are they?
Yes, they do grow in 7b, and ours typically range from $250 - $650 depending on age. Just a heads up, we are unable to ship plants out of state.
@@WascoNursery wow... A bit too pricey for me but TY
Thank you so much for explaining The management of hydrangeas. I have two macrophylla mop heads and right behind them is a climbing hydrangea. I've had that hydrangea up there climbing around for about 6 years and it has never bloomed. The mop heads are in full blast bloom from June until right now actually. I'm in zone 6B Holland Michigan. I just incorporated more hydrangeas into my landscape however it's the mop heads that I have to really watch because in the spring I prune out all the dead sticks that have no growth. But I'm wondering really if those two mop heads especially one of them where the climbing hydrangea is behind along the garage wall is not blooming because of the mophead shading that climber's roots.
They are beautiful trees 🌳
Thank you so much for making this video! We just had our Jane Magnolia planted 3 weeks ago and noticed ants crawling all over it. When we asked the landscaper about it he said it must have been infected after it was planted as it was inspected before they purchased it. I honestly have my doubts, but at least now I know what to get to treat it.
Thanks for watching. Most reputable growers will check their trees regularly for scale and other insects. That being said, it can be hard to see scale, especially on younger trees. One thing to note is that scale has a multi-year lifecycle. The white scales will pop open on an infected tree in fall, crawlers will emerge and feed on the infected tree and potentially travel to nearby trees, then the crawlers will feed enough until they mature, create a scale, and repeat the cycle next year. With this in mind, if your tree was planted 3 weeks ago, and you have visible, mature, adult scales on the tree, they would have to have been on the tree since Fall of 2023 (previous year cycle). If the infestation is not too bad, you could try contacting your landscaper and see if they are willing to supply you with Systemic Insect Spray by Bonide (or similar brand Imidacloprid Leaf Spray), to spray on the tree this fall and protect the infestation from getting worse. If it is a more severe infestation, and the tree was just planted a few weeks ago, I would contact your landscaper and ask for a replacement, since newly planted trees should not have scale.
Thanks! Exactly what my Magnolia tree has. Just found this video..hope I can save this old tree. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to send a picture of it
Thanks for watching! Feel free to let us know if you have any questions regarding the treatment steps shared in the video.
What to do about squirrels attacking your house and window screens? I am spraying Squirrel STOPPER on the window screens. We are scared they are trying to get in the house. Live in Michigan. HELP!
Don't believe this is my problem, all of a sudden a large section of a large boxwood died this August, the rest is still green, I see no insects.
Thanks for watching. If a section died "all at once" but the rest of the plant looks fairly normal, it is possible that you have a disease called Volutella: plantpathology.ca.uky.edu/files/ppfs-or-w-26.pdf
The Redbud everything I read says it grows starting in zone 6. But you’re zone 5. Since it’s a new introduction do you know for sure it grows in zone 5. Also I can’t find any. Do you think it won’t be available again until next year?
Great question! Carolina Sweetheart Redbud is new to us this year, so we will see how it performs. This cultivar was developed as a collaborative project by NC State University and Star Roses and Plants Nursery. Both our growers and the university that helped breed this cultivar are confident that the Carolina Sweetheart Redbud is hardy up into Zone 4a. plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/cercis-canadensis-nccc1/ We have some in stock right now, and hope to continue to carry it each year.
love all your videos! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!!
It’s August and I just learnt that my tree has it. What do I do?
Right now the best thing to do is dispose or burn fallen leaves that have scabs, and remember to spray early in the spring. We have a product called Bio-Pak, which is a great fertilizer for stressed out / diseased trees. Bio-Pak can be applied now and through October. www.wasconursery.com/product/biopak-plus-stress-relief-fertilizer/
thank you so much! We are in New York Zone 6b - would our months for treatment be about the same as you have described for IL?
Great question - the insects' life cycle spray timings will most likely start a week or two earlier, especially in a warmer year like this one has been, in a zone 6b area.
We need your nursery at georgia, I have to travel to Florida to get some beautiful hibiscus 😍
Thanks for watching! If you ever visit Illinois, feel free to stop by!
Just watched your video. I am extremely impressed.
I am glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching!
that's why I buy them very small and let them grow where i'm going to grow them. they adapt better if they are smaller
OK, I know I need to get tomorrow. But will the spray or the disease affect other flowers that are around my tree I noticed the black onmy mum leaves like you had stated.
Neither the spray nor the disease will affect nearby plants.
@@WascoNursery TY
@@WascoNursery I hope I am not bothering you but once again I just received my tree and shrub insect control the one that you said to use first you use with the watering can. I understand how to do it but my question is we just had a massive rainfall up to 3 inches so the ground is really really wet , I don’t know if I should wait. If anyone has an answer, I ordered all three though just like the videos tells us.
I prefer my narrow dense Emerald Greens but those green giants look pretty NICE in that shade! I might consider replacing my EGs with GG's since GGs grow fast, can handle shade, and aren't a deer favorite, but I hate to kill my EGs (even though their demise is probably inevitable) but I need to research the GG's tolerance to juglone. THANKS for introducing me to a potential substitute.
You're welcome! The entire arborvitae genus (Thuja sp.) has been listed as tolerant of Juglone, this includes Green Giant Arborvitae (See Link to Morton Arboretum Page Below). The clip of the shaded-area Green Giants in the video is from my own home landscape, where they have done exceptionally well, despite only receiving minimal sun. mortonarb.org/plant-and-protect/tree-plant-care/plant-care-resources/black-walnut-toxicity/#tolerant-evergreens
@WascoNursery that's FANTASTIC! I swear I read somewhere that Arbs were suseptible!!! This is great news! Thanks!!!
I have 3 stately Emerald Greens planted along my south border. My new neighbors don't do anything but lounge, party, and litter. They dont garden, they dont mow, & allow every black walnut & invasive vine seed that drops to become a 20+ foot tall, shade-casting, tangled-up allelopathic mess. As their yard fills in from top to bottom, I'm silently reminded that my days are numbered with my Emerald Greens & everything I worked years to establish in my little oasis get sabotaged Out of sheer disgust, I too will violate codes no longer enforced, & my own standards and participate to the ongoing devolvution of my once nice neighborhood. Sorry for ranting in here. I do appreciate watching videos as an outlet. It might take some time to let go of this bitterness.
I'm sorry to hear that this has happened. Hopefully your established plants will be able to fight off the shade and other detractors that your neighbor's yard gives off.
Yours look very nice and feathery. I’ve seen some that look a bit rumply. Why does that happen?
Great question. I assume the plants you are referring to are the Emerald Green Arborvitaes. When they are young they will be very tight and feathery. As they age, they can develop more than 1 leading trunk, making them a little "rumply". That being said, they still provide great privacy, even when they are fully mature.
I have the Rose of Sharon lavender chiffon...its so pretty!
Right?! The whole "Chiffon" series by PW is nice. I am a big fan of the unique, double-layered flowers that all of them have. They have also been very reliable in our very cold northern Illinois winters.
Our green giants are now in their 4th yr of growth and have been putting on amazing growth. They take to shearing very well too. I will say though that our Carolina Sapphire trees are growing much faster than our green giants
That's great! We love Green Giants and use them very regularly in our landscaping projects. Carolina Sapphire Cypress are a great tree, unfortunately, they do not grow in our part of the country (Northern Illinois).
I just picked up a French Vanilla from your nursery not too long ago. I also have from your nursery 2 Azurri Blue Satin Rose of Sharons(you actually pointed me to them 💙). Thank you for all this information!
I'm glad you were able to find our page, and the plants you wanted!
How do you keep your cacosmia from falling over
Great question! We use small, green painted bamboo stakes with vynil stretch tape to keep the crocosmia from falling over. As it ages, and if it is nearby other plants, it will be stronger and less prone to falling over.
Just what I need. I am surprised by my diagnosis and Happy I now have a plan.
Thanks for watching, glad we could help!
I have a pumpkin plant, growing near one of my roses, and I see a whole bunch of little brown dots which I assume are eggs on the bottom of the pumpkin leaves. I feel like maybe it’s a terrible idea to have this pumpkin and the eggs, right next to the rose. Should I just cut leaves off the plant or take it out entirely?
If you are local, I recommend bringing in a sample of the pumpkin for us to look at. If you are not local, I recommend reaching out to a local, reputable garden center with a plant clinic or nearby university extension office. Just as a general tip, many insects are host specific to one type of plant. For example, Rose Sawfly, the insect mentioned in this video, does not harm other plants during its larval stage. That being said, there are other insects like aphids and mites (among others) that can spread between different plant genera.
this video was excellent. It described precisely the problem with our Star Magnolia bush. I couldn't find the exact root treatment recommended in the video. But i applied this: BioAdvanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect & Feed Concentrate I hope it works as well.
Thanks for watching! BioAdvanced's product contains the same active ingredient as the one mentioned in the video. We recommend a 3 step approach for heavy infestations, using the products (or similar ones) in our Magnolia Scale Bundle: www.wasconursery.com/product/magnolia-scale-treatment-bundle/ As per the video, we are about to come up on the "Crawler Stage" of the insect's life cycle. If it is able to be sprayed, you will want to spray it with Bonide's Systemic Spray in Late August, Mid September and Late September.
You give a lot of great info..thanks!!
I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!!

It would be nice if you told us how to keep them blooming . My penstemon and coneflower bloomed great May and June and now not so much
Great question! Some plants are better than others at reblooming, so it is best to check the tag and see their bloom time when selecting new additions to the landscape. Plants with longer bloom times listed on the tag are generally going to be longer bloomers. That being said, there are a few care tips that you can do to help plants rebloom better. - First, cut back dead flowers to the nearest set of leaves once they are done blooming. - Second, fertilize regularly with a high-phosphorous fertilizer like Jack's Blossom Booster: www.wasconursery.com/product/jacks-blossom-booster-10-30-20/ - Third, ensure that all of your plants are getting adequate sunlight. Though many sun perennials may say "full-sun to partial sun" on the tag, plants that like sunny environments will bloom best in sunnier locations.
April and may? Blooms? They just be growing tulips and hyacinths the anecdote doesn't hold up cause they'd be at Lowe's buying bulbs in sept

Chateau de Versailles (a deep violet/lavender single bloom) Tropical (Chinese hibiscus) Red pink, orange, orange with a red inside and a yellow with a white center Lavatera Silver cup and the pink variant, confused about what one is which because they kinda have the same growth and flower, I do like the white ones tho. Swamp rose mallow (hibiscus mocheutos) I have Luna white 2x perfect storm or maybe the one I forgot the tag for is starry starry night. Also I think I have one that’s a deep pink with green leaves, most of them are still growing. French mallow (hibiscus zebrina) I have a darker purple and the classic purple and white I have also grown hollyhocks and tree mallows, they were easy but hollyhocks and French mallows get rust very easy. I love this group of plants, the roselle is the one used for tea also there’s a maple leaf mallow, related to the swamp mallow but it’s called false roselle I think.. very interesting how many different species are related to eachother
That's awesome, great collection!! It is super interesting how they are all apart of the same Genus of plants, but look and grow so different. Thanks for sharing!
I appreciate your channel, great info!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
Why don't you have closed captions available?
Thanks for letting us know! I updated the settings, so captions should be available in a couple of days when CZcams processes the video again.
I looooove plox. I only have 1 plant but plan on getting more. I love the scent they give off.
We love phlox too! The colors, fragrance and showy blooms are very cool characteristics!
