Another great video. I always enjoy watching. My success with the Bletilla hardy orchids is dismal. Three years ago I planted 6 different varieties. Three are still alive but not increasing in size at all, some actually have shrunk. I thought I had read they were good woodland plants. Now I see maybe they need much more sun than they get in my gardens. I'll try moving them. Too late this year to move, zone 6b/7a? I bought a hardy Lady Slipper orchid from Plant Delights when on sale last year - another failure. Could be I planted too late in the season. Maybe hardy orchids are not for me. :( I really want them in my garden though.

watching my two colocasias in my room surviving the winter with my heater same as me both putting out fat new leaves at the same time such a cool family of plants they bring be so much joy

Is it crucial to add rock to the bottom of my pond?

I'm in buffalo also

I struggle with these hardy orchids. Please do a full video on them. Looking forward to hear how you have had such good success.

lol stop this is stupid

I don't know much about gardening, but it's nice to see a fellow barefooter. CHEERS!

Cleverly camouflaged

Your's look a lot better than mine!

What is the best way to dispose the seed pods?

I think the theory is that the invasive species in its native environment has either animals or other plants that keep it in check, but those are lacking in the environment that it 'invades' so it can take over, as opposed to being better adapted than native.

Every nursery near me carrys the same brand of plants as walmart.

Living in high desert mountain area. Love the cold hardy information. Semi drought tolerant but I water constantly any way. Grow bonsai Trees so watering is ritualistic any way

Your dogs love you so much, so cuuute! I love your videos, so glad I am seeing these again, you're exceptional! About 6 weeks ago we had our small 6 x 8 ish pond pump replaced, and the 3 waterfalls descending from a stream, have all but disappeared as far as volume of water coming down rocks. Pump has been cleared of debris, I picked dried Little Gem Magnolia leaves from 'stream,' dunno.

How come it doesnt get scorched leaves in full sun? Mine does even if left at sun 3-4 hours 😢

Good afternoon... I am in zone 7a and no blooms yet😢

Lovely

So lush

Those banana plants looks great

My question is, can you grow enough taro in a cold climate to consume like they do in the tropics? In Hawaii and the Philippines taro is used like a potato and I am curious about how they taste.

Hello, yes I started with a bulb they reached almost 5 ft tall😊

The voice is too cute 🤗

There a difference to Alocasia, and cali Dora. Elephant ears are Calidoras!

Thanks for sharing! Yahoo barefoot weather is here!

You have a nice pond. Do you know how I can make a small pond to attract dragonflies? I'm in zone 7 Pennsylvania.

I planted 3 in zone 5 (zone 6 now according to the updated map, but I’m skeptical) last year, all in different spots around the yard. Mulched good, kept em moist over the winter… Now it’s May 9th and I got nothing from any of them yet. Zone 5 hardy banana is coming back though! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good info! Thanks

my guess is rain garden type of plants, shrubs, and trees should all help to slow the water flow, and soak it up

Planting for wildlife is a great idea, and I'm going to plant more native trees and shrubs in my yard for that

I think the problem when discussing invasive species stems from it being location specific, and having different severity. Spotted lanternfly was bad a few years ago where I live, but now I see it as often as any other native butterfly. So its not really a huge problem anymore. But this requires qualitative data to determine how bad it actually was, and is. Endangered species has a spectrum before being designated extirpated or extinct, and similarly invasiveness needs a scale from worrisome to extemely horrible. There's too much nuance that is being skipped without the drsignation, which needlessly creates misunderstanding and frustration.

Great video! Do you get mosquitos from your wicking underlayment? What is the underlayment -synthetic carpet?

Hey Clark! Sent you a DM on IG to discuss with you on Alocasia care. Cheers!

I bought 2 huge bulbs and need to get them in - would prefer an already grown plant but 💰 have always loved elephant ears - thanks for the video- you have the nicest yard of all the ones I’ve watched

You provided very good detailed information and a clear explanation of all the components that go into building a pond ... and how they affect the health of the pond.

Too much theory. Many people successfully keep a large number of kois in a small pond as long as you have a way to handle their waste. I keep 12 kois in a 300g rubbermaid trough with no issues. They've grown from 4in to 13in now and doing just fine. My water is clear.

I always am impressed with your passion and convictions. Your rant here is very much needed. More people should rant on this topic. Educating is step one. Nice job.

What p me off about invasive species is that they invade our nation and steal our stolen wages called taxes through some money laundering scheme called taxes.

All I can recommend to anyone wanting a short and entertaining explanation of invasive species is to watch the new magic school bus (the magic school bus rides again) S1e1

Hey,I really enjoyed your video,made me laugh,thankyou.. I live in England & I love honey suckle😅😅..Have a great day & takecare 🌿🌱🌿🌱

Bradford pears are awful, they stink, break in storms easily, and yes they make dense thickets of just these stinky pears, I hate them.

you have the most beautiful pond and the happiest fish I've ever seen

my pond desperately needs to be cleaned because of green water but I've got hundreds of tadpoles and pollywogs in the water and I don't want to harm them. how can I clean with them in there?

Needed this list. Ty! 🌱

I’d love to plant bamboo. Is ur area in New York 6a? That’s mine and always figured it wouldn’t thrive here. (Not that I’ve researched it at all lol)

I meant to say Darwin Hybrid Tulips 😂

Your hearts tongue ferns look lovely next to your pond. We have them growing in the wild around where I live, they’re great, really prehistoric looking. I’ve just stumbled upon your channel and subscribed - you come across as really enthusiastic about gardening, which is great! I have a gardening channel too, if you fancy checking it out and keeping in touch.

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing whats in store!

Also, if you go hiking in Appalachia, Leucothoe shrubs are everywhere in the understory. They are quite hard to miss.

Do you cold protect your cherry laurels? I live in basically the same exact climate and part of the US you do.

Nice list
