Adding an Elderberry & a Camellia to the Garden | Gardening with Creekside



Today I am pushing the envelope of my growing zone with two new shrubs, an elderberry, and a camellia. Join me as I share these two beautiful plants with you and why I choose to add them to our garden.

    Hello! You think of a great project. Elder and camellia amazing varieties. I hope your camellia will winter well and we will see its charming flowering. Good luck to you👍🌻💙

    Hi Jenny! (Jerry-Jenny’s main squeeze!)Thanks for showing us your tenacious side and risky inspiration in planting slightly out of your zone! I have a gardenia up north in zone 5b.. wish me luck please!🤞✨🤍

    Valleys get the freeze first — no?
    Maybe try a camellia at the top of the hill nearby where you can protect it if need be every year.

    I saw a Lemony Lace Elderberry at our Garden Center in Augusta…BEAUTIFUL! We are "technically" zone 8a, but 7b is directly above us in our county. Do you think I could get by with it? Where would I need to place it to help it get along?

  6. Angie M

    Im in zone 8a and planted 3 elderberries..I knew it was a risk..but so far they survived the heat wave we had..I kept them in a place that protects them from afternoon sun

    I have a lemony lace elderberry that is limping thru it’s first year. I’ll be interested in how yours does. The camellia sounds amazing!

    Good morning Jenny. Excellent video with superb production standards. Thanks so much for sharing a tour of your lovely garden. Have a great weekend. 🌹🌹🌻🌻

    Jenny,
    Several years back, here in VA 7A, I planted a Black Lace elderberry in part shade under my bedroom window. Despite the reduced level of sun, it has grown HUUUGE (😉). It doesn't flower as profusely in shadier conditions, but w/ foliage like that, I'd love it even if it never flowered. ❤

    My poor lemony lace fries so I will be moving it here shortly. Can't wsot to see the blooms on the camellia ❤️

  11. Dieneke Oonk

    Very nice video, thank you! Near the end, I saw some hives filmed by the drone. Are these yours? There must be loads of nectar for them so close to the nursery.

  14. Jennifer Wolford

    Oh the lemon and lace LOVES the hot hot sun here. I'm in Northern Utah (same weather as Laura). We do cool down at night though. We're well above 100 many many days in the summer.

    I found a camellia that is hardy to my zone 6a garden. I was soooo excited because I do love camellias. 🍁🍂🍁💚🙃

    Everything is looking soo pretty! Nice and neat too, which I love. I'm really interested in the lemony lace elderberry. I realize you haven't had these before but can you tell me anything as far as pruning? I'm guessing late winter early spring but how much do you prune? I hope these do well for you cause I have a spot for one. Thanks Jenny ❤️

    I live about a mile from camellia forest. 😁 they also have nice conifers btw and their camellias are sold online – David has a big mail order business. If you like snowbells you’d also like snow flurry which is cold hardy (6b). It has the same Weeping form/habit, clear white flowers and my 3 are each full of buds.

    I saw the bee hives for the first time along the driveway! Awesome! Someday I am coming to your nursery! I have family in Raleigh and New Bern areas. I am thinking Spring 2023. When do you officially re-open? Can't make the Fall this year. But, I would love too.

  22. Kathy Kaufman

    I am going to be so interested in how your camellia does. I had them when I lived in Myrtle Beach, but miss them when I moved to Nashville.

  25. Julia Binford

    Here in my Pacific Northwest 8b garden, I planted 3 different camellias about four years ago, and they are just now looking more full and healthy. Worth the wait!

    Love…. the Lemony Lace Elderberry is beautiful! We live in zone 9/Central California. It's still in the 90's and has not reached the 50's at night yet. I planted 2 Black Lace Elderberry 3 years ago. They are in morning sun/afternoon shade. Thank you for the amazing drone footage. 🙂

    Fantastic love them. Wish I could plant them in my garden. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

    Today the guy at the nursery warned me not to use "fertilizer"( biotone starter) right now. I said "my youtube friend who is also in NC is still doing it🙃" 😄
