Unusual Plants from our Travels – In this video we finally plant some of the plants that we collected in the last few months on the road. We actually have more than this, but we’re running out of space in the garden.

Hello! You have completed your flower collection well. Hibiscus with crimson leaves and bright flowers will look especially chic. Thank you for interesting video👍🌻🐦
I'm really getting variegated plants, influenced by your videos! Fascinating assortment of unusual plants!
I love your farfugium plants. If you ever come across one that is hardy in zone 5, please let us know. Thank you!
I'm a technical dinosaur but watching you add these cute little things, I wondered; a small stake could have a code & connect to an app to show placement of all one's plants. I hope I didn't just give away another million dollar idea 😕
N. Georgia got rain last night! Fall planting can commence!
Hollo Jim putnam and Stephany, another great video! All the videos filled with great ideas, about cutting ,playing seeds, growing vegetables, watering, muching, and more,more, more. I could speak for me and ather we are thankful for you and Stephany. THANK YOU 🙏
What is that gorgeous plant at 7:42 with white and fuschia flowers?
Such interesting plants! Love all the close-ups with plant names so I can add them to my wish list album which is getting quite large! 😆
Loved this video! I want to be your friend so I can go to all the nurseries with you! Lol… My husband’s favourite thing to say when I come home with another plant is… “where are you going to put that?!” I definitely am a plant collector too which I think makes our garden interesting. I live in the northwest where it is very wet and I have clay soil so… I’m always looking for plants that like wet soil… like perennial hibiscus. I have 2 and they are thriving. 😎
I have Storm Cloud Amsonia. Terrific plant. Doesn’t require anything special to do great. It’s been in the ground about 4 years. I bought 3 other Amsonias since I like Storm Cloud so much. Love unique plants! Keeps it interesting!
I know it’s none of my business but I’m wondering why when you had all of that growing space at your other home you moved to a small growing area in your new home. P.S. I’m just wondering out loud, again it’s none of my business. But it keeps popping into my head so I just had to say it out loud. Not expecting an answer. 🍁🍂🍁💚🙃
I like how you said you always look for the small container-I do too, it gives you more opportunities to try interesting plants. It's also fun to see what you can fit on your lot, as I also garden on a city lot…always seeing where I can fit something in
I need to get out more. I have many plants but many of them are propagated from the same plants. I need more variety.
I live in the north of UK. Very wet clay soil, bone dry in summer and I have quite a few yews in my garden. All are growing well. Not sure of zone. Think it's around 7/8. 👍👍
I had to look up why different plants had the name japonica name in it.🍁🍂🍁💚🙃
Thanks Jim and Steph. 🍁🍂🍁💚🙃
My Holy Grail didn't make it through the summer and it was a $30 plant 😭. I keep looking for a replacement but our local nursery hasn't restocked them.
Besides Ardisia, NurCar is a great place for unusual farfugiums. (Surprised you didn’t pick up a F. japonicum 'Shishi Botan' or ‘Ryutd’)
Any pics of yours and Steph's wedding and what flowers/plants you two chose. I learn so much from your channel because I live in Greenville, SC so very near your zone.
Nurcar is heaven for anyone looking for something different. I just placed an order with them and had to exercise great restraint!
You two may have to start doing what I've had to do. Start weeding and planting your surrounding neighbours front gardens… A win win if you ask me. My rear garden including concrete paths is only 26' x 26'. The two sides are only 3' wide. And the total front including paved paths and driveway is 26' x 18', then the verge on other side of community footpath is 5'. I included all the concrete because I have literally 100's of pot plants and hanging baskets and hanging pots x 💜🍇🍆😇🙏🇦🇺🍆🍇💜🌼🕊️
I have several gardening channels I watch, but I have to say, " By far your channel is becoming my #1! Very informative and being," new to this gardening experience I need all the help I can get lol, I have a small home & I have basically just 3 flower beds, just a mix/ mash up of full sun perennials,, I truly wish I would have started this sooner! Kids and grandbabies are older now & so I'm all in! I've had several disasters & I'm spending more time just keeping my plants & shrubs alive at this point! But I'm learning a lot. Thank you
Wow amazing video👌👌. I truly appreciate your work loved this video👍👍. Keep it up👍👍. I really love❤️ your content. I enjoyed while watching👀 your video. I 👍like👍 your style such a creative videos in your channel. Such amazing editing, keep it up and keep sharing.👍👍
I enjoy and am educated by your videos. I appreciate you share your vast knowledge, and want to ask a question,please. Do you have any experience with Fine Line Buckthorn? I’m in zone 7 western Arkansas, and am considering this plant for a screening project in a small yard. Thanks!
What is the large flowering plant that is next to the new yew location?
I was just wondering – wouldn't it be easier to just plant a dwarf golden japanese yew for instance that gets 3' instead of taxus baccata that gets up to 60' & you wouldn't need to move it once established?
The reason I ask is I know they have a deep tap root and are a bear to relocate without trashing the area they grew in –
Im sorry I’m not very up on the fancy names of plants .I do respect your education on there names . Could you say what the common names are I can’t request a plant if I can’t pronounce it
Is it just me or have you changed the name on this video twice after the initial upload?!
You’re so lucky to be able to grow alstroemerias. I love them.
Monarch! Or viceroy! Behind you on the panicle hydrangea! So cool!
Do I need to protect hibiscus in winter? They’re losing all leaves. I’m in Raleigh as well.
This man knows his stuff
TREASURE CROWN is an invalid, albeit unregistered trademark as the trademarking entity did not originate it and has no legal right to apply any trademark, registered or unregistered to it. Hey…I just decided I will name the common red-tip photinia LARRY'S RED(TM). That claim means absolutely less than nothing and people putting a trademark on stuff they did not create is stupid and has no legal nor ethical merit. I admire Ted Stephens but he did not discover 'Miho -no-matsu' which was published by Hirose and Yokoi in Variegated Plants way back in 1978. Mr. Hirose was my friend and that cultivar is a long-standing garden plant from Japan and does not need American trade names to mess it up.
I always any time you talk about the farfugum think of the giant butterbur or petacsites japonicus. Of course they need a root barrier or they will take over in a wet shade area not sure for dry shade but better to be sure
Taxus baccata 'Aureomarginatus' or something similarly gold-edged has been hardy at the Gettysburg Cemetery in PA for over 100 years. The species has some cold issues as young, exposed plants but they exist in Asheville at Biltmore for decades. Wind and cold will dry them out (desiccation) and kill them regardless of root hardiness. They need to be established to endure and some protection for a few years is best. Taxus baccata 'Fastigiata' has been around at Maymont in Richmond for many decades too. I grew T. baccata 'Repandens Aurea' in Syracuse (USDA 4) for many years but it was mostly under the snow cover.
Hi Jim, I live in New Zealand where Alstroemerias are very invasive in any garden……just letting you know that if you want to have one, I'd pot it. The corms multiply very fast and if you want to remove it, you'll have to spend hours digging and removing them( from prior experience).
I wouldn't recommend this plant to anyone.
I love the variegated japonica plants you have planted.
Also like that you know the scientific names of plants.
Happy gardening, Jo.
