Hi @SusieDottyWiiblondie!! 👋🏼👋🏼 That is super-exciting you started them from seed! Definitely a good idea to grow them in containers/pots for now until next spring and the threat of frost has past.

My Shastas are in my front garden in the back of the boarder…..too far back for me to get to in mid-summer when everything has gone crazy and is waist tall or more. So, bottom line, I basically planted and forgot them about 7-8 years ago and they are doing great without me!!! They are surrounded by foxglove, summer phlox. and beebalm. They typically outlast all those neighbors and take up the competition with the near by black eyed susans and the fall colored coneflowers come September and all the way into October!! They are a great staple/ anchor plant in my jammed packed garden and I’m happy to have them! Thanks for the video, I really enjoyed it. ❤ 🌼

I love your flower garden. A daisy starter plant was given to me years ago and I don't know what kind they are. They have spread a lot since I planted them. When in bloom they are beautiful but they get about 3-4 feet tall and I need to put support on them.. Another thing, they have no second bud so I cannot deadhead to keep the plant going for a longer period. There are about 6 feet crocosmia mixed with them and when in bloom it's a site to be seeing. I just wished they weren't so tall and lasted longer. However, they are in a corner of the back yard so I enjoy them while they last. Good job guys, keep up the good work!!! 👍🌼🌼🌼

You are both so wonderful in the way that you educate your viewers about gardening! It’s lovely the way you work together. 👨‍🌾👩‍🌾I have just planted a shasta daisy bush that I bought from a nursery. (I live in Qld, Australia) I have also purchased some Shasta and daisy seeds, as well as a couple of other species. Do you know if daisies are difficult to grow from seeds, and do shasta daisies grow from cuttings? Thanks for your great video. 🌼🐝🌻

@SpokenGarden Жыл бұрын

Hi Julia K!! 👋👋 Thank you sooooo much for saying that! So made us both smile. 😊😊 That sounds really fun that you have a new Shasta daisy plant and also have seeds. As long as you are keeping the seeds consistently moist, growing them at an optimum temperature of 65-75 F degrees (18-23C), and were planted at the right soil depth (on the soil surface and gently pressed into the soil so they stay put), you should have few problems growing them. Some species might need a cold treatment (vernalization), so be sure to check the seed label. We haven't tried rooting Shasta daisy stem cuttings yet, but you have spurred our interest and it's definitely on our radar now. 😉😮 Hope that helps and have fun growing your new Shasta daisy plants! Thank you for watching!! 👍👍

Thanks. I just found some at Home Depot called Daisy May. Are they rabbit and deer resistant? I keep most of my plants in containers in the east facing back yard to avoid deer, but then they would get only direct sun from 12-4 in Atlanta (hot). I grow a lot of annuals (petunias, verbena, butterfly bushes and perennial salvias there, so you think it will be fine too. If I am wanting full sun and west facing, the front yard but then the deer. Appreciate any advice.

There isn't enough time in the day! The deer are bad this year. Because I water, my plants have juicy leaves. The deer ignore my neighbors yards. They don't water. The deer stand behind the fence and stomp their feet and snort at me. "Hurry up lady-we're hungry." Thanks.

@SpokenGarden 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Voided Tea! 👋 Thank you for watching. 😃 We picked your question to answer this past Saturday on our LIVE Garden Chat, so if you would like to hear our response to your post, with a little more info and examples, definitely check it out here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iJNjZZaomc7Pj30.html We would recommend definitely moving your Shasta daisy further from your wall, especially if you want to have access to the wall for any maintenance. Becky Shasta Daisies can get up to 24-36 inches wide, so definitely space accordingly with this mature growth size in mind. We would say move/transplant this plant in the fall when temperatures are cooler and there is less overall stress to this perennial plant. Hope that helps and enjoy your Becky Shasta daisy! 😉👍

You might consider adding warnings to your presentations about "enemies" of a particular plant. For instance, I planted a 4 in shasta daisy in my front garden. I went to water it the next day.....rabbits had eaten almost every green piece of it. Hence, when first planted, daisies should be surrounded by "keep out" barriers against critters that find them delicious. Same with Coreopsis ...planted same time and place...next morning...Cor-ee NOPE sis.

Your lavender is just gorgeous. In my hot and muggy zone nine Garden, it’s just rots dies. (by the way, I don’t water all summer because we get so much rain) I noticed your cocosmia Lucifer… How do you keep it so tall and straight and how do you keep the leaves from turning brown

@SpokenGarden 11 ай бұрын

Hi @cherylramsey3409!! 👋🏼👋🏼 Thank you for watching and for saying that. 😊😊 Sorry to hear about your challenges to grow lavender in your garden. Our lavender do great here, even with all the moisture we get during the fall and spring months. We grow them in sandy, rocky soil so the chance of rot and death is really low. If we didn't grow them in really sandy soil, they wouldn't make it for sure. Thank you for noticing our crocosmia! To get it to grow straight and tall, we make sure it gets enough full sun (at least 6 straight hours or more) so it doesn't stretch or get too floppy. We also stake it just before it flowers because those flowers will make each stem top-heavy and they will fall right over. We did make a tall flower staking video with crocosmia and gladiolus, if you wanted to check that out so your crocosmia can stay upright, too: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aq92ntKCyq--j6c.html We hope that is helpful and thank you, again, for watching! Happy gardening!! 😉😀

Hi Leftyla! 👋 Thank you for saying that. 😊👍 We water the shasta by the lavender on the drier side of things and they both do well. This shasta is a little smaller and not as robust as the others you see in the video because we water the other shasta's more and they are showing it. Lavender really like rocky soil and like to have small dry-spells between waterings. Hope that helps and thanks for watching! 😉😎

Why do my shasta daisies grow 6 feet tall before they bloom then flop over? How do you get yours to bloom so short?

Last year I had a beautiful clump of daisies. I was so happy. Somehow this year there is nothing where my daisies were growing. Any ideas what could have happened to them?

I’ve read that the daisy can be a short (2 year) perennial

How does it get nutrients from your mulch ? He said we don’t use fertilizer because they get all nutrients from mulch .. please educate me .

Do you have any tips with seeding and spouting daisies? I have seeds dried and saved in my freezer. I would like to grow some from seed. Thanks.

I did not do anything. I direct sowed them and kept the soil moist. Mine did not bloom the first year. 4 years later they need to be split and moved around the yard! They are prolific. They have cared for themselves.

My shasta daisies fall over. Do you cut them back in the spring to make them more a bush.

Hi Vivian! 👋 Thank you for watching. Good question; we don't cut ours back in the spring. Sean has seen Shasta daisies fall or flop over in other gardens and they were all in semi-shaded areas where they weren't getting enough full sun (6+ hours) each day. If your Shasta's are in a semi-shaded area of your garden, you might consider pruning back tree limbs or away other taller plants around them so more light can reach your Shasta's. Also, staking and tying-up your Shasta's with twine in a large grouping can help keep them upright, too. We hope that helps and thanks again for watching! 😉👍

What time of year do you plant shasta daisies? I bought lavender planted it and it died! Planted in compost don’t know why it died

Hi Sheila! 👋👋 You can plant them right now, in the fall season, as they are starting slow down their growth and should be done flowering. When you transplant any plant in the fall, be sure that you do it on a day (or a whole week) that isn't too warm or cold, say anywhere from 40 to 70 degrees. This is so a plant being transplanted won't have added temperature stress ontop of the transplant stress of losing part of its root system and trying to get reestablished in a new spot in your garden. For your lavender plant, we are sorry to hear that it died. While compost is a good general plant growing medium for some plants, lavender tend to like more sandy, even rocky soil that has good drainage. Compost has good drainage, but it holds onto water a lot longer than a sandy soil or rocky soil would and this can lead to the roots of a lavender plant being too wet and leads to an "over-watering" situation. If you still have the compost-soil in your garden and that is the best sunny location for a lavender plant, then you can add sand (50/50 mix, or higher sand percentage than compost) to that location mixing it thoroughly with the compost to improve the soil drainage. Just make sure that the water has somewhere to drain to and away from the lavender area of your garden. Hope that helps and thank you for your question/comment! 😉😊

How do you organically rid the earwigs that voraciously eat my daisies?!

I love the white flowers behind the female narrator, intermingled with the fine-leafed green - what is that please?

do you need cut it to the ground before the winter?

@SpokenGarden 7 ай бұрын

Hi there! Good question. You can cut it back down to about 2-3 inches above the leaves, or even just below the leaves, so you don't see them, BUT you don't have to cut them back until next spring if you want to leave some seeds for birds to eat and some cover for other critters to overwinter in. It's up to you. Thank you for watching! 😊😊
