First Comment; Loropetalum!
Great suggestions 👍🏼🙏🏻👍🏼
I've not had good luck with my azaleas! Zone 8a. I've got two autumn twist recovering in the shade right now.
Just ordered 3 agapanthus last night. Hope I have better luck with them this time😉
Thank you Jim & Steph! Regarding sunshine ligustrumdo yo I think mine would scald in full sun?

Great, great video! Love it!!! Been researching companion plants for some time now. I'm in 7b. I love blush pink nandinas. What small/dwarf plants would you put with it? I have sky pencil already. The upright growing gardina you mentioned sounds interesting. Can't be any more than 2-2.5 feet in width. Thanks!!!
I DID IT!
I dug out that big Gardenia that was too deep & ended up with a rooted limb off the main shrub to boot. Added a bunch of compost & replanted it, wish me luck?
You guys give me more than inspiration, you give me courage to step outside my comfort zone. Many thanks Jim & Steph 💕
Edit: I remember when a garden center could afford trained staff to do this with customers. I loved helping folks design by showing it to them. Made me nostalgic!
I love to live vicariously in Zone 7b!
I appreciate you taking the time to create this video. You have shown some plant combinations that I have been considering and it was great to see them and I feel like you guys are agreeing with my thoughts 😊. Enjoy your content so much!
Love the plant combo videos. I do not have the eye for it! Stephanie does an amazing job! Thank you
Gosh I just loooove these combination videos! I love rewatching them! They inspire me to create some of these combos or very similar ones in my own garden. I am currently moving around pots with sunshine ligustrum and loropetalum from Southern living plant collection in my garden to see what I like. I also love it when Steph is in the videos! Just really fun and inspiring videos to watch!
Awesome video! I've been undecided on what to plant with my my false hollies. It's a full sun spot, but I've got it down to a barberry or panicle hydrangea and I'm leaning towards the barberry. Love your content! Thanks.
Great plant combos!
Another great video! Big thanks to you and Stephanie. The summer is looking pretty hot (I live in Atlanta). Could you guys do a video about protecting plants in super hot weather? I get really worried when the heat index hits in the high 90s and low 100s. Thanks again for all of the incredible information!!!
I bought orange rocket in December on clearance. It shined bright in spring and summer, I don’t mind in the least that it will lose its leaves in winter.
Thank you for your choices and placements of the beautiful plants.
Excellent content. I'm looking forward to the shade version!
Great job guys! Really!!! I have learned and gained so much inspiration from the two of you.
Wow I have one of these combos❤ Oakland Holly, distylium and barberry. Our Oakland Hollies defoliated in December but are slowly leafing back out.
I love southern living plants and Monrovia. I dislike proven winners👎🏻
Is that a Tara Oakleaf hydrangea off to the right? I want one of those so bad but can never find any 🙁
I love these kinds of videos that you and Stephany provide. When shopping for plants/shrubs, I know what I like as a single piece but I always seem to get stuck in what will compliment my new piece. I do believe there is a skill in choosing and planning or perhaps this is what we call experience. I thank you for helping us out in the development of our gardens.
Thank you Stephany and Jim. 🌸💚🙃
These combo videos are very helpful, determining ideal plant combinations is one of my biggest challenges.
Love these plant combo videos! 🌟
Love this series! Noticed that some of the plants are for zone 5. How will a zone 5 plant perform in Raleigh zone 7b clay soil?
I love that we are getting Stephanie’s perspectives as well as Jim’s more and more often!
Jim & Stephany – YOU are a great full sunshine combo! I love the way you compliment one another. It is a joy to witness.
I love all the tips I'm getting here. Thank you!
Thanks, I’m digging the Orange Rocket Barberry
Beautiful combos 🥰
I can’t wait for that variegated azalea!!!!! Omg it’s perfect!!!! That’s my favorite grouping lol Love them all tho! 🤍🤍🤍🌸🌸🌸🌳🌳🌳🪴🪴🪴🍀🍀🍀
I need those orange rocket barberries in my life lol
It’s so crazy y’all made this video when I had just asked Steph to teach me how to arrange my garden so my plants don’t get lost. Thank you! Is exactly what I needed.
Jim & Stephanie,
Great combos! Would LOVE to see a combo video specifically for deer-resistant plants in both sun & shade.
Thank you. 😊
Absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much for all The ideas and combinations of plant choices.
I like this type of video not only because of the specific plants grouped but also the suggestions and tips! I don’t have a creative or artistic bone in my body so figuring this stuff out is a struggle. I’m very happy to hear Stephanie’s suggestions and see her growing ease in front of the camera. Two wells of knowledge in one video is always a plus! 👌💕👍
Really enjoyed this video! Opens my eyes to texture, color, height combos! Thank you!
Sadly, Rabbits ate my Encore Azaleas to nubs and I won’t be replacing them. I use a lot of salvias and lenten rose with native plants. Rutgers University doesn’t recommend Barberry.
Great video! Stephanie knows her plants!💖🥀🌺🌷
I need advice for morning sun and shade the rest of the day for 9b
I can’t get Encore to do well here in North Texas (to much heat). It is selling here like crazy… East Garden (afternoon shade but still too hot) 😢😅
Jim they are plants. They all go with one another.
