I keep all my polystyrene boxes and put my plants in those over winter in the greenhouse

Horticulture student in the US. So Rosie, just a question on the watering of plants in pots throughout the winter. You specified with the guara that you should cease watering until spring. Does this mean ALL watering? Because to my knowledge going in once every month to two months to do a quick watering ( depending on substrate and species size) was recommended to me. However, you cease ALL watering together ? Should this be consistent with ALL of my plants ? Can’t thank you enough for your channel. Me and a fellow student watch your show religiously. And can’t thank you enough for this Incredible free resource.

The best way to protect a plant in a greenhouse with an earth base is to dig a big hole, and place the plant in it , below soil level. Do not back fill. The residual heat in the soil at say 30 cm down will always be above freezing.Cover top of hole with a few layers of fleece. Ventilate on mild days.

In my area, it's 4 ft down to the frost line.

Thank you so much for your advice. Do you have any tips for Rudbeckia, echinacea and lupins for autumn/winter care. Many thanks and best wishes.

@rosyhardy18 9 ай бұрын

Most of these plants are much hardier depending on you location. Do not cut back to ground level and if you can leave most growth there on both Rudbeckia and Echinacea until the spring. The Lupinus give a tidy up to around 6 inches/15cm from ground level.

I dont cut anything to the to ground before spring.

Great advice for overwintering Salvias. I just wondered if they needed any watering if not much? I took cuttings last year and most of them took but I put them in the cold frame and it wasn’t warm enough so I will leave them in the greenhouse this year.

@rosyhardy18 9 ай бұрын

Yes in the greenhouse will be fine do not over water during the winter. If full grown plants perhaps once a month. If cuttings mist occasionally but give them good ventilation, that is the key thing.

When you bubble wrap the base Do you need to wrap the bottom of the pot as well?

@MoonSpinners 9 ай бұрын

Yes, wrap the whole pot

Great advice , I have salvia hot lips and Amstrad and have no greenhouse, should I try and protect them outside or is it a lost cause?

@rosyhardy18 9 ай бұрын

You can try to protect outdoors yes. It is easier with hot lips to succeed.

@BenFlop 9 ай бұрын

I dig mine up and stack them against the house wall, under a porch. Amistad is a hit and a miss so I always take cuttings but Hot Lips has survived 4 years in a row. Main enemy of salvias is water.

@MoonSpinners 9 ай бұрын

It’s best to move them into a frost free place like a garage or in an unheated room indoors.

@BarbaraDavis-dm5of 9 ай бұрын

Do you recommend watering geraniums when overwintering?

@MoonSpinners 9 ай бұрын

If they’re in a frost free place, then you can give them a dribble sparingly when they get bone dry. I tend to take cuttings every year and root them in pots on my window ledges in the house, I water them barely at all
