Can you tell me how much will my 3ft-6ft mertles grow this year? I'm so anxious to see them as trees.

Thanks for showing good pruning technique and clearing up the issues about the collar, suckers, and what you can do in summer !

So it's July 16 and my hydrangeas flowers are just starting to wane. Should we wait until the flowers are completely faded? They still look pretty.

Very good video, you were disappointed in losing your blooms so I wonder if you could take them inside as cut flowers, or possibly grow new trees from the cuttings?

Gopher 2 Homeowner 0, Round 3! Just had our resident gopher digging, and placed the "Giant Destroyer" smoke bombs in the tunnels, we will see who won this round!

Hi ! Love the video!!! I have a question, I just planted a Sioux crape myrtle , about 3 months ago,, it blooms but blooms lasts like a week and start faded off also some of leaves kind of shrink I think that’s the word , is this normal on new tree ( crape Myrtle )

Red buds are short lived😢

I love your excitement when talking about your trees,flowers,bushes....😊

Sorry Klokwitzia

Beauty bush is a good tall bush real tall Klokwatzia is the Latin name❤

❤ trees are a good backdrop and contrast with not just height but leaf interest and bark interest all things.😊

My lives Bloom but after 2 or 3 weeks I just fall off. Why?

❤thank you

Exactly what I was looking for! Precise presentation of the information needed for management of crape myrtle sucker growth.

Is it ok to prune the suckers in the summer? You mentioned doing it in the winter so just wondering if we should wait.

How can I order these products

Looks so pretty after trimming. Thank you

Can use mossy look with lime?

How do I subscribe?

What color brown, and where? I love the look of whire and moss. Do you show how to do the plate under tera cota, so it does not get wet on bottem and will not harm furniture?

How about a sponge?

How do I get these products asap. Need to get rid of them today, they are ruining my yard. I am in Aurora Colorado

I read a lot of review about Suoper thrive , thay all said it is no good at all

Oohhh, it's got electrolytes, what plants crave....

Can these be purchased locally ? I imagined after 4 years and no updates the price + S& H are high . Im in ZONE 5 midwest Il. This is a great video. Can't find an update yet !

Very helpful. Just bought a house and these things are rampant. So annoying right now but trying to get them under control.

Lots of good information in this video. Thank you.

I have a question. The city brought a bush mulcher on a tractor with the chains and mangled the crepe Myrtle bushes. There's plenty that is alive, but half of the bottom stems are ripped open and exposed to the air. Will it get the powdery mildew now? Will they repair themselves? They are all jagged and destroyed looking.... Do you have any advice? They are over 20 feet tall and have been there for 40 years... I can't believe they didn't send us a letter saying to fix it. I'm so sad for my trees....

When I trim/limb up my crepe myrtle, I basically just take off what is pleasing to my eye.

What is the name of the product that you are using?

I live in Louisville Kentucky. Where do you live and I thank you so much for your information.

Should you yank out the dead fern or just cut it at the ground level? Obviously the voles did this.

You look like the RedActed guy...Foocking AI

I would like to know long u have to steak the tree?

I have one of those. The black and blue salvia.

It looks great. I prune my crepe myrtles like this. I like to prune some of my other shrubs such as lilacs like this.

Thank you. Learning about house plants and need to prune. When my plant grows toward the light, I rotate it around.

In theory we are all experts ! Show us your lemon tree, no one that you just bought ! 😁😂🤣

Moles dont eat root system they r carnivores…. They damage root system putting air under your plants

When to prune a new crepe myrtle shrub into a tree?

What about deer resistant Hummingbird shrubs?

Thank you❤

Great, informative video. I live in a condo development and have limited space. I bought a Tonto Crape Myrtle that I planted in a big, double walled, insulated planter. I use Pine bark to retain moisture in the planter. My Crape Myrtle flowered well last year. I did trim prior to winter, so the shrub jacket cover would fit. I live in zone 6b. This year, I had to trim the inner area of my Crape Myrtle. There wasn't any leaf growth on the thin stems in the center. I am hoping my Crape Myrtle looks as beautiful as it was last year. I am so impressed how fast Crape Myrtles grow.

Why does my myrtle bloom on one side before the other

Thank you so much; this was exactly what I was looking for. I was afraid to hurt my dynamite crepe myrtle with pruning but now I feel confident.

I planted a nice 5gallon Natchez a few years ago. The main leaders are about 3/4” dia. and are now 6 to 7 foot tall and really weep out to the sides. I am worried about the flimsy tops once they bloom. I have them staked and controlled but I think in the late fall it might be time to top the tree a foot or so to promote more branching. Would this be correct ??

Funny how you create a problem and lo and behold there’s a solution . Some people knew what they were doing . Follow the money . Anyone ever think in these terms ?

Great information. Not much nursery sells mums at spring time only cuttings online. Would be great if you can make a video on how those cuttings be use for landscape purposes, care and maintain :) are root cut mums ok to plant on the ground directly? Or has to be pot first and wait till it becomes a little big? Oh...and what kind of mums for landscape

Hi! Just got these great Mums off clearance table at grocery store. I’d love to help them flourish and become greater! What are some tips on how to get them there. They are tall and leggy. Being sold as “Memorial Day mums”. I’d like them to become bushier.

The problem with these methods, particularly in residential neighborhoods, is that you're not eliminating the problem. You're just relocating the problem to a neighbors yard.
