Jump Into Junipers!! - Drought Tolerant, Deer Resistant Evergreen Classics with Countless Varieties

Welcome back to Bountiful Gardens!! The chill is starting to set in, and the leaves are almost all down. That means it's time to dive into the wide world of evergreens! First up on the list is a genus of plants so big, they get their own video! This week, we're talking Junipers! Junipers are found world-wide and can grow in some of the highest elevations. They have strong roots that can break through tough soils, as well as hold soil together preventing erosion. You can find Junipers as groundcover, mid-size shrubs, spreading shrubs and upright trees, and some can grow as tall as 90 feet!! One fantastic Juniper is Eastern Red Cedar, a native plant here in the Northeast. These make excellent roadside plantings, privacy screens and more, all while feeding and housing bird populations! Junipers have also been used medicinally and culinarily through history--let Ike tell you more! And then Amelia will fill you in on some fun facts!

Low Growing Evergreens for Hedges and Groundcover! - Plum Yews, Sweetbox & Wintergreen!

Welcome back to Bountiful Gardens! In this week's video, we'll be diving into the world of evergreens with three low-growing favorites: Plum Yews, Sweetbox and Wintergreen. These plants keep their foliage year-round, so you never have to go without color and fullness. Plum Yews, or Cephalotaxus, are deep green shrubs that work perfectly as a small hedge, especially in their upright form. Their spreading form stays a bit lower to the ground and has more of a horizontal spread. The berries of the plant appear in late Fall and are a useful foodsource for birds. Sweetbox is a beautiful evergreen shrub with lush green, almost laurel-like foliage. In the spring, it features vanilla-scented flowers that give way to berries that come in red, blue and black. These plants don't get much taller than 2 feet tall, and will spread just as wide. Wintergreen is an amazing native evergreen groundcover that produces plump red edible berries in Fall. The berries taste just like the wintergreen minty flavor, and that's because it comes from this plant! It has vibrant leaves that turn reddish/orange in fall for an extra burst of color. Here's a timestamp breakdown for you: Plum Yews - 0:57 Sweetbox - 2:27 Wintergreen - 4:15 There's no better time than RIGHT NOW to come manifest your perfect dream garden!!

Caryopteris Carnival, Awesome Amsonia and Abundant Asters - Three More INCREDIBLE Perennials!!

Welcome back to Bountiful Gardens! In this video, we're taking another deep dive into three perennial favorites you NEED in your garden! And better yet, this is one of the best times of the year to get your plants in the ground! This week, we're learning about Caryopteris (Bluebeard), Amsonia (Bluestar) and Asters! Caryopteris is a gorgeous perennial shrub in the mint family that features silvery foliage and deep blue flowers in late summer and early autumn. As Fall sets in, the leaves will turn to a bright buttery yellow color before dropping for winter. Seedheads make a great foodsource for birds, and the flowers are beloved by countless pollinators. Amsonia, also known as Bluestar, is a native perennial that boasts light blue flowers in early Spring. Its delicate but strong foliage makes a great alternative to ornamental grasses, and in the fall, this plant bursts into firey hues. Planting in clusters is best for the greatest effect! Asters are the OG's of the Asteraceae family--the largest family of plants in the world! We have plenty of native asters here in NJ, and you can find a bunch of them right here at Bountiful Gardens! These wildflowers can start blooming anywhere from early summer all the way until November, depending on which species you choose. And the color selections are amazing!!

Incredible Ironweed, Glorious Goldenrod and Amazing Anemone! - Three Perennial Wildflowers You NEED!

Incredible Ironweed, Glorious Goldenrod and Amazing Anemone! - Three Perennial Wildflowers You NEED!

Welcome back to Bountiful Gardens! It's the start of another school year, and the beginning of Fall planting season!! In this video, Joe and the team will get you acquainted with three incredible perennials you NEED to find space for in your garden: Ironweed, Goldenrod and Anemone!! Ironweed (Vernonia spp.) is a native wildflower here in the United States, and there are a few species to choose from. The plant features amazing, abundant deep purple, textured flowers in late summer through mid fall, making it crucial for late season pollinators. Its seed heads stand through the winter, giving interest to an otherwise dull area. The plant gets its name from its stems, which are "as strong as iron," and have been used in basket weaving and as cordage since recorded history. Goldenrod is one of the most prolific native wildflowers in our northeastern ecosystem. These golden beauties can grow anywhere from 2-8 feet tall depending on the species, and are host to countless pollinators, birds and beneficial insects. Some species prefer very dry soils while others enjoy wetter sites. Though commonly confused for ragweed, goldenrod is actually hypoallergenic, as it's an antihistamine! These plants also have very strong roots that will help sites establish after damage or fire. Anemones are beautiful perennial flowers that are also known by "Windflower". These plants are native to Asia, and as their common name suggests, they look gorgeously dainty as they dance in the breeze. Anemones prefer well-draining soils with normal moisture and appreciate a bit of shade later in the day.

Welcome back to Bountiful Gardens! Can you believe we're heading into September already? In this video, we're taking a look at Perennial Ferns, Hakone Grass and Sweet Autumn Clematis--all gorgeous shade-tolerant plants that you should be planting right now! There are thousands of species of ferns out there, and they're one of the oldest plants on earth, existing long before the dinosaurs roamed. Overall, they're highly shade tolerant, and tend to like moister soils. Sweet Fern, however, tends to do well in drier soils. Ferns can add incredible texture to any shady spot, and come in a variety of shapes, sizes and even colors. Autumn Brilliance fern, for example, features bright red fronds when they first emerge, fading to a lush green. Hakone Grass, also known as Japanese Forest Grass, is a luscious ornamental grass that offers a bright, feathery texture to your garden. It likes moist soils and can handle dense shade, and is often used along pathways because of its soft mounding effects. Sweet Autumn Clematis is an incredibly fragrant climbing vine that blooms in late summer and Fall. Typically, you'll want to train it along a trellis or arbor to get its full features. These plants can grow up to 35 feet tall/long and tend to have TONS of honey-scented flowers.

In this video, you're going to be learning all about three more perennials we have waiting for you right here at Bountiful Gardens: Monarda (Bee Balm), Liatris (Blazing Star), and Eupatorium (Joe Pye Weed)! All three of these plants feature native varieties you can find growing out in nature here in New Jersey. These are some low maintenance, high impact perennials that you should be considering right now! Monarda, or Bee Balm, is a gorgeous wildflower with tubular petals that make them a favorite for hummingbirds and butterflies alike. They typically grow in full sun to partial shade in open woodlands or sunny meadow landscapes. These plants can tolerate decently wet soils, as well as some dry spells from time to time. There are so many color varieties to Monarda--you have to come see them all to believe it! And if you want to spice things up, consider Spotted Bee Balm, a silvery-foliage mint with unique blooms. Liatris, or Blazing Star, is a native perennial wildflower that is beloved by migrating monarch butterflies. Also frequented by countless other pollinators, these whimsical looking purple-flowered plants can grow upwards of 6 feet tall and bloom from top to bottom, allowing you to trim it back as it wilts from the top down, preserving a perfect bloom for longer. You can find Liatris growing naturally in moist conditions in sunny, open areas and along streambanks. Joe Pye Weed is a classic native wildflower that you can find all over the state of New Jersey. It's extremely hardy, and is often found on sunny, abandoned sites. This plant is a beacon for pretty much everything that pollinates. From monarchs to bumblebees and more, this plant is a no-brainer if you're looking to make an eco-friendly addition to your landscape. Here's a timestamp breakdown for you!

In these scorching months, it's critical that our beneficial insects have all the pollen and nectar they need to thrive. It's not all fun and games in the garden though--it's a bug-eat-bug world out there! This week, we're focusing on a pollinator that doubles as a pest control agent in the landscape: the parasitic wasp! Despite being wasps, these critters don't bite or sting. In their adulthood, they feed on pollen and nectar, but to reproduce, they seek out host insects like aphids and caterpillars and lay their eggs on their bodies or their pre-laid eggs. Upon hatching, the larvae consume the host, emerging as a new wasp. It's spooky, but fascinating. And even more importantly, beneficial insects like these wasps can reduce or eliminate the need for pesticides and insecticides in your garden. However, it's a bit tough to picture our adorable caterpillar friends going through such a process, so fortunately there are things you, as the master of your garden, can do to save them! If you find a caterpillar in your garden, you can scoop it up, pluck some of its host plant, and place it inside a mesh tent, out of direct sunlight. Make sure to replace the leaves each day, and before long, you'll have a chrysalis in your tent! From then on, you just have to be patient and let nature work her magic. Finally, Glenn and Dan go over some great native plants you can add to your landscape to help foster a healthy insectary!
