Jenny if you have time would you mind giving us an update on these? Just wondering about being in full sun. Thank you!
I propagated my hydrangea, which is a Incrediball I got about 30+ plants so I am starting my hydrangea Lane too ! It will not be the instant gratification like you got, but it will take a few years for them to get established and grow into beautiful bushes and that’s fine with me because it save me a ton of money.. lol 😂
How do you propagate them?
@@ninaalexa6163 I do cuttings around late fall , early winter , or you can do it in early spring , like when you are cutting back for the winter or early spring . Just cut a piece of a branch , at a node , stick it into good potting soil & keep watered . Do a bunch so you can get a better chance .
Keep the pot with the cuttings in a shady place .
Then around early spring you will start to see growth coming on , let them stay in the pot for about another month to make sure they get some good roots . Or until they are about 6-8 inches tall .. remember to keep them watered & in the shade . I just use a old pot or 2 , and stick it close up to my back porch where it’s not getting any sun , then in the spring when it starts to warm up , I just keep watered , watch them every day for growth.. and wait until I think they have the roots , you can tug on the plant & if you get any resistance , you should have roots . Or you could dig one up & check .
Then after that , I plant in the ground in the evening , give it Lots of water for the next week or so to make it takes . It’s according which kind of hydrangeas you grow , if it goes in the sun or shade . I have ones now that I started last year , they are 3-4 foot tall & already have blooms & doing great !
I know this seems like a lot , but it’s not .. very easy . A lot of plants /trees/ bushes you can propagate, it just takes a little time & patience.
I hope this helps you & good luck ! 🌸🌸🌸
@@dreamagood8321 ok wow thanks, good to know!
@@ninaalexa6163 you’re welcome 💗
I just love your whole patio area. The design is gorgeous as are all the plantings you have done. The incrediballs will be an icing on the cake.
Thank you so much ❣️
Growing up, my mom always said and taught me that "If at first you don't succeed, try try again"!
You never know in life until you try something that is for sure. The hedge will be gorgeous!
Love seeing your family working together. Should be beautiful.
Looks beautiful, Jenny! And wonderful garden and life advice! Always keep trying. When you reach an end, don't stop,pivot and make a new path.
That hydrangea hedge is going to be amazing! We always have challenges with hydrangeas, so we always want to learn more about those! 🙂
I’m so glad that I was introduced to you at the Grand Garden Show on Mackinac Island last year. I’ve been following you ever since. Your videos and info are all so helpful as I’m a Texas Zone 8a gardener. I’m planting a brand new garden starting today and I’m including some hydrangeas. My soil is HEAVY clay so you’ve just given me the exact recipe I need to make them happy. Now I’m ready to get out there and start planting 🦋
Yay❣️❣️❣️
I am so happy that you put the hydrangeas back in that area. I love it!
OH Jenny and "Sweet Thang" my misery with the hydrangea battle I have! 🙃 SO, I watched this TWO TIMES in a row and will do my best to ----do my best!!! I'ma give it (yet) another try! Thank ya'll~Ruthie
I love seeing all of the beautiful things in the background, too!! Awesome camera angles!
Weird, i just decided yesterday that i want to put in a hydrangea hedge! I was thinking panicle, but now you’ve swayed me to incrediball! ❤ This will be gorgeous!
Love them, but when wind storms and hard rain comes thru…they can get destroyed due to heavy flowers and weak stems😮
You have the BEST videos: you are personable and entertaining and provide wonderful educational content. I am amazed that you don't already have 1M subscribers; you deserve to, and I feel confident that you will. Please keep up the great job!
This is gonna be amazing you guys!!!!!!
Love this idea!!!
Oh no 😂. My nightmare hedge lives again! After seven years of trying in zone 4 last year I finally tossed in the towel. I attempted to have 9 in a row and while some sat for years looking miserable, others couldn’t make it through the winter. Every year I’d have to replace one or two or three! To add insult to injury, I removed the Annabelle’s the were in that spot because apparently Incrediball was an upgrade… and only because they got a little droopy due to the weight of allllll of the flowers 🤦♀️. Back to Annabelle this spring. I have 9 sitting here waiting to get planted.
So many lessons and information in this video. I'm glad you're trying the Incrediballs again but with a different approach. I learned something new today regarding the raised bed mix! Thank you for that! These are going to be beautiful there. I like the idea of being able to cut some of the flowers throughout the season and hopefully producing new flush of blooms.
These are my favorite of all! I can not wait to see them in their majestic beauty! ❤❤
Your timing is impeccable! We planted 5 ‘Incrediball’s’ (this would be their 3rd season in the ground.) Of the five, two are crisping up and yellowing on the new growth. They were lovely until about a week ago. So, today I will now take the mulch back and amend the soil with compost & ground pine bark. 🤞🏻 this works! This gives me hope 🙏🏻
So glad it was helpful!!! Here’s to a gorgeous hydrangea season 🤍
sounds u might need iron-tone on them
I can’t wait to see these grow in and form a hedge! They are going to be beautiful Jenny.
I have been doing the same thing and found they prefer shade for me 🥰 so far they have been really happy 🥰
I have mine in part shade, getting a bit of the morning sun but mainly facing western north location. I did find out with the strong winds from last year the branches were blown in one direction. I did not want to cut too much back since it hasn’t been the third year of growth yet. (Zone 5) 🌸❤️🇨🇦
Jenny and Jerry, looks great. I watch you whenever you put out a new video. Am retired so enjoy seeing how you garden . Thanks so much.😊
That looks so pretty already, it will be stunning when they are in bloom. Hope they do survive for you this time.
Great planting. I bought incrediballs last year and there great because of you and Laura. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I just planted a hedge of incrediballs along our driveway last fall. I have a live light hedge along our northern neighbors tree line. The incrediballs will be backing lavender, roses, clematis and dahlias. There’s a simple coated wire fence to keep our little dogs in that the roses and clematis will climb. We had a new leach field put in last fall so I had to replant everything. It’s all looking so great now! The first show has been 2500 bulbs from colorblends. The daffs are starting to fizzle out but tulips are still going strong. Can’t wait to see the incrediballs bloom!
Always encouraged and learning from y'al!
Beautiful hedge already!thank you for all the info. as always. 🐛🐞🐝🌱💖
Love your videos. You are very knowledgeable and are very enthusiastic when it comes to flowers. I won the beautification award in my area, special thanks to you.
Good morning
This will be beautiful! I am interested to see how well they do in full sun in NC. I may need to move mine😊.
I love watching you design. my hydrangeas died last season all but two. I replaced them with encore azaleas hoping for easier care
I'm so glad you tried it again Jenny
I think these will be stunning there in the back of the patio.
Amazing project! Definitely waiting to see where the SUN HOSTA ends up in the landscape. 😊
Hey, Jenny 👋 That is going to look stunning!🤍🤍🤍😍Well done!
My incrediball died back on me this spring too. It had been in ground for 2 full summers and flourished each year. It started out beautifully and then we got a huge temperature shift right as I fertilized and then they just slowly died back. I mean we went from 55 to 80 degrees in a 24 hour period and it stayed hot for almost a week. I’m on the prairies of Canada so that’s highly abnormal for us in April/May. Choosing to fertilize when I did was probably to stressful and on it and slowly died over the summer. I replaced it as well. I need those big beautiful blooms.
Oh my i lo e hydrangeas my daughter has the limelight it looks awesome.
They look awesome where you planted them
Its gorgeous
Hi Jenny🌺 wonderful hydrangeas.They will grow well for you . Have anice day. 🌻🌺🌻
Glad you tried again with the incrediball hydrangeas. Maybe the soil was too much clay before or you some insect or critter in ground before. Maybe use little of the Bayer product every year like on your roses.
Omgosh! I was wondering and hoping you would do this 🤩
Love Incrediballs!!! I wish I could grow have some in my yard but my herd of deer (10 to 12) every night would just destroy them. The deer are beautiful but they definitely limit what I can plant.
Will be gorgeous, I hope they take well "Take 2" .
That is going to look gorgeous!!
Love the incrediballs! Wish we could put in full sun here in NE KS, zone 6 but they fry to burnt cauliflower heads here in the hot sun even with consistent irrigation watering. Our local nursery has a hedge of them in a part sun location and they’re absolutely gorgeous. We can grow limelight’s in full sun with no problemos though. Hope this new planting goes well, it will be beautiful.
Funny, my husband's foot (with sneakers) also measures 1 ft. I have him measure things for me walking things off all the time.
Hope it works this time! It will be gorgeous, love hydrangea hedges… now I’m looking around my space to see where I could add one too.
Following along to see how this hedge turns out! Interested in how these plants do in full sun in the south. We’re considering adding a hedge of white wedding (or similar) hydrangeas at our house.
We also got the high winds here where I am in Virginia for the last three days. It’s supposed to ease up today! Hope so!
Same here in Northwest Iowa! 60 mph gusts and today 5-10 mph. Best day in weeks!
They are going to be awesome! You have me sold ingredaballs it is!
So beautiful! I will be checking the specs out for these and hope they will do well in a zone 6b!
I wish power planters were available in the UK as I am on chalk and the ground is so hard to dig. Regardless I love the idea of a hydrangea wall and something I need to work into my garden plan. Thank you for the inspiration xxx
Hope you can show cutting the flowers and making a bouquet!
Thanks for the info. 👍
I'm looking to do the same. Great video. TY
O we shall have to compare notes this summer! 💗 I am also 7b, about an hour south of Ashville. I planted an Incrediball blush hedge last fall on a west/northwest facing brick wall. It will get afternoon sun till sunset but it's more indirect sun. I'm really curious to see how they do. They are currently sending up new shoots and loaded with blooms!
Looks like your dahlias are coming along nicely? 🌷💚🙃
They are!!!
Updates? I planted an incrediball hedge also and they take a ton of water. They’re sheltered against the front of my east facing home but the one past the corner wilts constantly. I’m guessing from more sun exposure.
Jenny I have always been interested when you have used your augers. But I would really be interested in you showing some time. How do you store them specially, all the big ones.
I'm done with spireas, they always die after 2-3 years after I plant them. Same thing happened with my neighbor and family's spireas
Maybe move the drip tape to above the plants - with the slope the water won’t go “ up” to plant? Deer/ rabbits also a
Possibility for demise?
I planted 2 of the smaller incrediball hydrangeas a couple of years ago. They both died. Zone 7b. I hope you have the answer because I love them!
I would love to hear a reply to this for my zone 7a garden. Should they be in more shade?! I lost two of three of my brand new ones. They looked great for a couple of months and then died.
Jenny, I’m curious as to why you planted the hydrangeas above the drip line…or did you? Since the hydrangeas are in full sun, I would have thought you’d run the drip line above the plants so they’d get watered, but not saturated because of the angle of the slope. Could you share how you addressed the drip? Thanks so much. 💚
🌹❤️
I thought you said we can’t amend soil for hydrangeas that it will cause bathtub effect, so now I’m confused on what to do
Hi 👋 Jenny 🎉❤🌺🌸🌹🌷💐🌾🌼🌻🌞
Do you happen to know why some limelights have reddish new growth stems? I planted about 40 this March and some have a beautiful, reddish stem color while some have plain green. Why is this?
Question about the power planter? Do you have rock in your soil? Our best crop is rock. I mentioned this to my husband and he’s afraid I’ll hit rock and break my wrist. A big auger doesn’t even work for farm corner post our ground is so rocky.
I'm Australian. What is a berm? Do love Hydrangea. Have to check out locally when you plant them ?
I was looking for spacing tips and was pleasantly surprised to find out you can plant these in full sun with drip irrigation in NC zone 7b, which is the same as me! Do they not burn at all on drip irrigation where you are?
They do not 😊
Can I ask how you chose which hydrangea type to plant? Why incrediball over limelight? Only because in my own mind I've heard limelight is easier to grow?
Doni need to amend my soil if yes what do I need to buy help 😅 I live in Georgia thanks
Great Hydrangea but what is the motivation of this one instead Hydrangea Incrediball Blush
I want a creamy white bloom, not pink
Jenny, did I not hear you talk about those not doing well in full sun for you? I'm in the same zone about an hour away from you. I'm adding some more incrediballs and I'm trying to decide their location.
I really don’t think the sun was the issue. I’ll keep everyone posted!
I’m so torn!!!! I have 50 Incrediball hydrangeas ready to be planted. I originally had a hedge spot to plant which was shielded from the afternoon sun in Clayton, NC Zone 8a but now with a fence put in it might not be able to get 6+ hours of sun. There is another hedge spot I could plant it in but it is blasted with full sun. Which side should I risk it in?
Not on topic, but when should I apply another dose of the bayer 3 n 1 rose fertilizer plus beetle protector? I treated once at the beginning of March.
I use it every 4 weeks on my roses, you’ll have to do a bit of experimenting (and read the instructions) to see what works best for your garden.
I love the look of hydrangeas but I can’t grow them in a zone 9b; any possibility that one can be developed for higher zones?
I hope plant breeders are working on it!
Have you tried hydrangea macrophylla; big leaf hydrangea instead? I'm in zone 10b and we have success with those.
@@jamiesalazar7345 OMG no I haven’t but I will now…thank you so much for giving me hope 😁
No problem :) These are the types that I have: Blue Danube, Blaumiese, and Leuchtfeuer. We planted them in shade/part shade. They can't take full sun.
@@GardeningwithCreekside me too but for now I’ll try the big leaf hydrocodone that Jaime Salazar suggested…I’m super excited/hopeful ❤️❤️
🙋
Beautiful.. But it bothers me that they will block the view to the rest of the surrounding and back garden.
#suitstoboots
You could have gone with line light hy5
They would be way to big
@@GardeningwithCreekside or some other variety like strawberry vanilla or zinfandel or little lime...etc
I love hydrangeas. They are so many different ones that are so pretty. Every year when Proven winners comes out with a new one I always get a few to add to the garden. The only ones I have had problems with are the Home depot and Lowes version. They don't ever seem to come back or do well.
