- Hey, y'all.
0:01
You know, we have so much to do
0:05
with this house.
0:06
Now Eddie and I,
0:07
today we're jumping into the landscape.
0:12
We got so much to do y'all
0:14
and Eddie and I have brought you here to Herb Creek.
0:19
They have a nice big selection
0:21
and, you know I need y'all's help.
0:23
What are some of y'all's favorite things
0:25
that require low maintenance?
0:27
You know, I'm all about low maintenance.
0:30
I'm all about perennials
0:33
that come back every year.
0:35
Right Eddie? - Yeah.
0:37
- But today I'm in search of this yellow tree
0:42
and when it blooms, it blooms in February
0:44
and it's school bus yellow,
0:47
and it is so beautiful.
0:49
When I lived in my little house downtown
0:51
on Abercorn Street on the Square,
0:53
I had one and it was simply beautiful.
0:56
So I'm kind of on the search for that today.
1:00
Eddie, can you think of anything else?
1:02
And I wanna think about some Nandinas.
1:04
Mama had Nandinas in her yard and I just loved those.
1:08
Just brings back memories.
1:11
- [Eddie] Yeah, we need to look
1:12
for something that's gonna go
1:15
in front of the house- - Yeah.
1:16
- and on the back porch area. - Yes.
1:20
- [Eddie] And then if we see anything
1:22
like the butterfly plants
1:23
that you know- - Yeah, I.
1:24
- with the purple- - I-
1:26
- you showed the architect- - Yes.
1:28
some purple plants. - Yes.
1:30
Yeah, Eddie showed the landscape architects
1:33
some beautiful...
1:34
I love it when it looks like you're walking
1:37
through a field of wild flowers.
1:41
I don't know if we can make
1:42
that happen down here in this heat
1:44
but I love that.
1:45
Now look at these Nandinas.
1:48
Aren't they pretty?
1:49
That is a Nandina, right?
1:50
- Yup, Nandina. - Hadn't seen one that little.
1:54
So I'm going to find somebody that can help me, Eddie.
1:58
I see something blooming over here in yellow
2:00
but it's not time for that plant to bloom yet.
2:02
So I'm gonna see if somebody,
2:06
can help me with the name of it.
2:12
Like I said I wanna,
2:13
I wanna hear from y'all.
2:14
I don't.
2:16
I don't particularly
2:19
claim to know a lot about
2:22
plants in the yard.
2:23
I know what's pretty, I know what I like.
2:26
- We need Azaleas. - But-
2:27
- We have no Azaleas- - I know.
2:29
- in that yard. - There's not the first-
2:30
(chuckles) - Azalea in that yard.
2:32
- [Eddie] It's the most un-southern house
2:34
on the street. - I know.
2:35
I know it. (laughs) (chuckles)
2:36
- [Paula] I know it.
2:37
- So what is your name?
2:39
- I'm Chris. - Chris?
2:40
- Yes. - And I'm Paula.
2:42
- Nice to meet you, Paula. - And-
2:43
- Nice to meet you and,
2:45
let me tell you what I'm in search of today.
2:48
When I lived downtown on Abercorn Street
2:51
in historic district on the Square,
2:53
I had this yellow tree
2:56
in my yard
2:57
and it blooms in February
3:00
and it's school bus yellow. - Okay.
3:02
- Do you have any idea what I'm talking about?
3:07
- Was it a tree tree? - Does it just look-
3:08
- or like a vine type of tree? - No, it wasn't a vine.
3:10
It was a tree.
3:11
- It was a tree. - Okay, was it, was it?
3:13
- It wasn't a huge tree.
3:14
It wasn't like an oak tree.
3:16
- [Chris] Okay but it wasn't wide at the bottom,
3:18
it was a high tree? - No, right.
3:21
- Okay. - Right.
3:21
- [Chris] Blooms yellow?
3:22
It could be a Dahoon Holly.
3:25
How big was it?
3:26
- Well, it was- - How tall was it?
3:27
- it was tall. - Okay.
3:28
- [Paula] It was at least up to that screen.
3:31
- Okay, okay.
3:32
Well, obviously not- - It was.
3:33
- [Paula] It was not an old one, I don't think.
3:36
- Okay.
3:37
I suspect it would be
3:40
a type of Holly, a Dahoon possibly
3:41
with the yellow flowers. - Do you have any of those?
3:44
- [Chris] We should, yeah.
3:45
- [Eddie] And it just blooms once, once a year?
3:47
- [Chris] Yeah, that's right.
3:48
It blooms in the Spring. - Yeah, in February.
3:49
- Yeah, yeah. - Okay.
3:49
- Yeah. - Okay.
3:50
- [Chris] So it was between that and possible Acacia
3:52
but if it doesn't bloom in the fall,
3:54
I think it's a Holly. - Okay.
3:55
- Now they're in our tree section,
3:56
over by the Palms. - Okay, okay good.
3:58
Well, let's go look at that.
3:59
That was the most beautiful tree.
4:02
And in my little- - Kind of-
4:04
- In my little cottage downtown,
4:07
my door was painted school bus yellow.
4:10
- Okay. - And that tree,
4:13
next to that, right off that door
4:15
it was just so pretty. - Okay.
4:18
- [Paula] We need one of those chickens, Eddie,
4:19
to go by our chicken coop. - Yeah, yeah.
4:21
- They're little. - Are those for sale, Chris?
4:23
- They are. - The metal ones?
4:25
- [Chris] Yes, they sure are.
4:26
- [Paula] Wouldn't that be cute by the coop?
4:28
(stones crunching)
4:30
- [Paula] I like it. (chuckles)
4:33
(stones crunching)
4:35
- $85. - $85?
4:37
- Red and white rooster.
4:38
Yes Ma'am. - That's good.
4:39
- [Paula] I think, I think we gonna have
4:41
to put him on our wishlist. (chuckles)
4:43
- That's cool. - All right.
4:44
Let's take a look at the Holly here.
4:47
(stoves crunching)
4:50
- So the way this normally grows, the Holly is,
4:54
I wanna say it's a tree-like shrub.
4:56
They can get very large. - Oh wow.
4:58
- [Chris] Typically they trim the trunks
5:00
to make it like a tree. - Right.
5:01
- This look familiar at all? - Right.
5:05
- [Paula] You know, it was kinda like that.
5:07
Does this bloom? - Yes, yeah.
5:08
- In February? - It blooms yellow flowers.
5:11
Early to mid-spring, so just depending on,
5:13
just depending on the environment.
5:15
- [Paula] Do you have pictures of it?
5:17
Like in bloom? - Let me?
5:20
- [Paula] So I guess we are gonna be getting
5:26
outside plans, any day now.
5:30
So I guess we'll have to bring that in.
5:32
- Yeah. - Okay.
5:36
- [Paula] Match up,
5:40
I don't know, like I said,
5:42
I don't pretend to know about.
5:44
(door squeaking)
5:47
Okay, ooh it's cooler in here. (chuckles)
5:50
- Hey. - Hi there.
5:51
- [Paula] Y'all, Chris may be on to something.
5:53
He thinks he knows which one it is.
5:56
We've been looking at different
5:59
trees on our phones.
6:03
And one he showed me looks very much
6:06
like it could be that, so.
6:09
- There it is, right there. - Is that it?
6:11
- This is it, you'll have to use your imagination
6:13
a little bit, picture it blooming but that is it.
6:16
Not a real wide trunk. - Yeah.
6:18
- [Chris] But, this is a Golden Trumpet tree.
6:21
- Golden Trumpet tree. - Mm.
6:23
- [Paula] And it doesn't have much leaves on it.
6:26
Does it, right now? - It doesn't.
6:27
It doesn't, part of the reason for that is
6:30
because it is root- - Is it root-bound?
6:32
- Most likely, yeah.
6:33
Yeah. - Now, does it get bigger?
6:35
- Yeah. - The trunk?
6:36
- [Chris] Yeah, it'll get bigger.
6:37
This tree will grow up to about
6:40
somewhere in the ballpark of 15 and 20 feet.
6:43
Not- - Yeah.
6:43
- they shouldn't get any,
6:44
any larger than that at maturity.
6:46
- I can't read the price- - But yeah, this is it.
6:47
- [Paula] But I think it says $189.
6:50
- [Chris] That's right, that's right.
6:52
So yeah, this one is- (foot thuds)
6:56
- [Chris] It's been in the pot for a while.
6:58
- Yeah. - Yeah that's,
7:01
that's why a lot of leaf loss,
7:02
just there's not enough root
7:03
to hang on to the water- - Yeah.
7:04
- [Chris] through the heat, right now.
7:06
Yeah, we water this two or three times a day.
7:08
(chuckling) - You do?
7:09
- [Chris] Yeah, yeah.
7:10
We still get some leaf drop. - It's soaks it up quick.
7:11
Doesn't it? - Yeah.
7:12
Yeah, it's a full sun tree most places
7:14
but our afternoons are pretty harsh-
7:15
- Yeah. - this time of year.
7:16
- [Paula] Your Ferns are beautiful.
7:19
- Yeah, they're actually loving
7:20
this time of year with- - Yeah.
7:22
- they like the humidity. - Look.
7:24
- [Chris] They don't like to be in the sun.
7:25
That one's a Boston Fern- - Yeah.
7:26
- right there. - Isn't that beautiful.
7:28
And I love, Chris, what I call wild Ferns.
7:31
You know, they have the bigger,
7:35
they have the bigger- - Larger leaf Fern?
7:37
- Something like this but.
7:40
- [Chris] I think I know what you're talking about.
7:41
They tend to grow out in the sun, too.
7:44
- Oh, they do? - Yeah.
7:46
There's some on the ground. - Hey, how are you?
7:48
- [Staff] Good, how you doing?
7:49
- I believe you may be- - Now.
7:49
- talking about these? - Yes.
7:51
- [Chris] Yeah, these are Macho Ferns here
7:53
and they're one of the- - Macho?
7:54
- Macho, yeah. - That's a good name for it.
7:55
- [Chris] Yeah, these are one of the few Ferns
7:56
that can actually handle the sun.
7:58
- [Paula] Mm-hmm.
7:59
- [Chris] The Savannah sun.
8:00
- I love, those kind of Ferns. - Yep.
8:04
- There's two kinds here. - So, would they do all right,
8:05
in the shade if- - Possibly.
8:06
- [Paula] that's where they land?
8:08
- [Chris] If they get a few hours of sunlight a day
8:09
they would be fine but yeah,
8:10
they do just fine in the shade.
8:12
Those are Macho Ferns on this side.
8:13
These are- - Uh-huh.
8:14
- These are Holy Ferns. - Yeah.
8:15
- [Chris] Yeah, slight difference,
8:16
more elongated, thinner leaf here.
8:19
- All right. - But yeah, they're very-
8:20
- Oh and we- - very hardy.
8:21
- love Hydrangeas. - Let's see.
8:22
- [Paula] We love, love, love Hydrangeas.
8:24
- [Chris] We're in the right place for those.
8:25
- Yup, is this Hydrangeas? - Yes.
8:28
- Hydrangea land, right here? - Yes, this is Hydrangea land.
8:31
- [Paula] (laughs) Okay. - [Chris] Yeah, and a couple
8:33
of Climbing Hydrangeas right here.
8:34
- This is climbing? - Yes.
8:36
- Nice. - Yes, Climbing Hydrangeas.
8:37
- Wow. - And a couple of Limelights.
8:38
- [Paula] Does it bloom well?
8:40
- [Chris] It does (rasps) excuse me.
8:42
It does. - So this'll climb on a fence?
8:45
- [Chris] Yes.
8:46
- Ooh. - Yeah, that's nice.
8:47
- [Paula] Well, they hadn't got our fence up yet,
8:49
but- (laughs)
8:51
- We'll have to remember this. - Check the price for you?
8:54
- Yes. - Yeah, look at all the-
8:56
- Yeah. - The feelers. (chuckles)
9:00
- Fillers? - Or grippers.
9:01
- Feelers? (laughs) - Or whatever they're called.
9:03
- Tentacles. (chuckles) - Yeah.
9:04
- [Chris] Flowers aren't quite as large
9:06
as your normal Hydrangea but-
9:08
- [Eddie] And when does this? - Talking bout this?
9:09
- [Eddie] Does this boom early or?
9:12
- [Chris] Oh, this one's gonna be
9:13
a late spring, early summer bloomer.
9:17
- [Paula] Seems like the-
9:19
- [Chris] And they should rebloom, several times
9:21
- Yeah. - during the warm seasons.
9:22
- [Paula] I was gonna say,
9:25
I just recently sold my property on Bloomington
9:29
out on Riverbend. - Okay.
9:31
- And we had a bunch of Hydrangeas on that
9:33
and seems like they bloomed, Eddie.
9:36
Once they started, they kinda bloomed for like a while.
9:39
- Yeah, yeah, I mean- - But the ones we have now,
9:41
they bloomed, the next they're gone.
9:44
- [Eddie] Well, we did the Limelight
9:45
and I think those are early summer
9:48
but then we have some Endless Summer, which we got here.
9:52
We got- - Some of the blue Hydrangeas?
9:53
- all the hydrangeas came from here.
9:55
- Yeah, I like those. - Yeah. (chuckles)
9:56
- [Chris] I like those, I think we had some,
10:00
we had somewhere over here.
10:03
- Well, I think we've got plenty of Limelights.
10:04
- [Chris] Yeah. - But I sure-
10:06
- Same over here. - am interested,
10:07
in putting a couple of these out
10:08
by the fence when you going to the dock.
10:10
- [Eddie] Yeah, yeah.
10:12
- And see what that looks like.
10:13
Full sun for these? - No.
10:15
- No, well then it wouldn't work.
10:17
- Some morning sun would be all right
10:18
but afternoon sun - Mm-hmm.
10:19
- is gonna be too much for them.
10:20
Yeah, that's actually what- - That wouldn't work there.
10:23
- I suspect that's what happened in transport.
10:25
- Yeah. - We haven't had these-
10:26
- Yeah. - here very long and they came
10:27
in a little bit low.
10:28
- [Paula] Yeah.
10:29
- They'll be fine, it's gonna take some time.
10:31
- Yeah.
10:34
I would love to have a couple of those.
10:37
All right Chris, what?
10:41
You know I've told you, I love,
10:43
I love like walking into like a field of wild flowers.
10:47
- Okay. - Is that possible down here?
10:49
Or is it, more Northern?
10:54
- Well, you said wild flowers.
10:57
- Like Butterfly plants. - Oh, okay.
10:59
- And the purple- - Yeah, sure.
11:00
- purple coloring. - Sure.
11:01
- Kinda wispy looking. - Yeah.
11:02
- Okay, that sounds to me
11:03
like a Salvia would be something that fits
11:06
that description, is great. - I'm familiar with a Salvia.
11:07
- Yeah, great for drawing in pollinators.
11:09
They do die back in the- - Mm-hmm.
11:10
- winter time but they- - Uh-huh.
11:11
- reemerge quickly in the spring.
11:12
- [Paula] Well, that's all right.
11:13
- They're real tough plants as far as-
11:14
- Yeah. - handling the heat-
11:15
- And now where are those? - the humidity, the sun.
11:17
- Oh they're back up front. - Mm.
11:18
- We've got our walking shoes on, right?
11:20
- Yeah. (chuckles)
11:22
- Behind here, there's also Mexican Petunias.
11:27
(stones crunching)
11:32
- [Paula] Well, I'll ask Eddie to show you the picture
11:35
that I just love of this wild flower garden.
11:40
Like that Lantana's pretty.
11:41
- Yeah. - It's not-
11:42
- [Chris] They're native around here too.
11:43
They grow everywhere. - Yeah.
11:45
- Over here we have some Blue Salvia.
11:48
Salvia and another- - Yeah, to line a pathway.
11:51
- Okay. - Uh-huh, yeah.
11:53
- And here? - Yes.
11:54
- Yeah, this is exactly- - Oh, this is so pretty.
11:57
- This is exactly what- - Oh, this is-
11:58
- Yeah. - This is typically swarming
12:00
with butterflies on these. - Well I see.
12:01
There's butterflies over there.
12:03
- Oh yeah. - I saw and why does-
12:05
- Milkweed is another good one to grow.
12:07
- Milkweeds, they'll attract your Monarch butterflies.
12:09
So- - What's Milkweed?
12:10
- [Chris] Milkweed, where is our Milkweed?
12:14
They've moved it around.
12:15
Let's see here. - And what is this?
12:17
This is pretty, that's not a Bourbon Daisy is it?
12:22
That's not a Bourbon Daisy is it?
12:24
- [Eddie] No, I don't think so.
12:32
(stones crunching)
12:38
- [Eddie] And what kind of flower is that, orange?
12:39
- [Chris] This is Milkweed.
12:41
It's typically gonna have a mixed flower,
12:45
kind of a pink and a yellow.
12:46
- Pink and yellow, okay. - Yeah, yeah.
12:47
Small flowers that look kinda
12:48
like the Lantana. - Uh-huh.
12:50
- [Chris] Similar to this little cluster-
12:52
- Ooh, I like this over here. - of small flowers like this.
12:54
- Okay. - Chris, what is this?
12:56
- [Chris] See what you're looking at here.
12:59
- This has that kinda- - Oh this is what I just made.
13:00
This is Ruellia, Mexican Petunias.
13:02
- Okay. - So-
13:03
- I love this. - And they love the sun.
13:05
- [Eddie] And we've got,
13:06
we've got some of that- - Yeah.
13:07
- going along the driveway. - We do?
13:08
- This one right here. - Yeah.
13:09
- The purple. - The purple's-
13:11
- Oh yeah. - real popular.
13:11
They bloom all summer long.
13:13
They spread out on you too.
13:14
- [Paula] All right, let's remember this Eddie.
13:15
- Uh-huh. - Yup.
13:16
That's another good one for pollinators.
13:17
This is your Milkweed.
13:19
It's not grown to be attractive.
13:20
It's grown to attract Monarch butterflies.
13:22
Okay. - So yeah.
13:23
You can see there, some caterpillars-
13:25
- Uh-huh, uh-huh- - have been here chewing
13:25
already. - Yeah. (chuckles)
13:27
- The ones that haven't been got by the birds.
13:29
- Well Chris, Eddie just reminded me
13:31
that I have a conference call that was supposed
13:33
to start 10 or 15 minutes ago. - Oh, sure.
13:35
- So, we gonna have to break away-
13:37
- Certainly. - but we will be back.
13:38
As soon as the landscape architect-
13:41
- Okay. - gets my plans in.
13:43
- Yeah. - we'll be back.
13:44
- Okay, very good. - Do you work every day?
13:46

13:58
So it is another- - Does it bloom those?
13:59

14:01

14:03

14:06

14:07
- Uh, early summer. - Early summer.
14:09
- They're gonna bloom through the summer and the heat.
14:11
- To me that would- - It's a nice one.
14:12
- [Paula] be so pretty mixed in with this stuff over here.
14:16
I can't even remember the name.
14:18
- Mexican Petunia.
14:20
- Mexican Petunias. - That's an easy one, Ruellia.
14:22
- Yeah. - But Mexican Petunia's easier
14:24
to remember. - Yes.
14:25
And now, what is this?
14:28
This is pretty.
14:30
- [Chris] That's a good question.
14:32
I don't know this one.
14:34
- You don't? - This is,
14:36
I have to look at the name.
14:37
Oh, that's a Aquilegia.
14:39
- A who? - Aquilegia.
14:42
I believe I'm saying that right.
14:43
We just got those in this year.
14:44
- Yeah, they're- - Okay, when does that bloom?
14:47
- [Chris] All summer long.
14:48
They've been blooming since we got em.
14:51
Yeah, it's a full sun lover. - I love those.
14:54
- [Chris] It needs water though, some of them
14:55
dry up the root systems.
14:56
- Okay, yeah. - At least from what-
14:57
- A lot of this- - what I've seen.
14:58
- [Paula] A lot of this stuff needs God's water.
15:01
- [Chris] Yeah, they've been sitting
15:03
on our tables for- - Instead, of the hose water.
15:05
- Yeah, that's right.
15:08
- [Eddie] All righty.
15:09
- Well, Chris. - Okay.
15:10
- Thank you so, so much and we'll be back.
15:13
And it should happen in the next couple of weeks.
15:17
- Okay, fair enough. - And I love things like this.
15:19
I love things that crawl and creep.
15:21
- Yes. - This is what we have-
15:22
- I was gonna say. - outside, yeah.
15:24
- We got those too. - This is a Dipladenia.
15:26
- [Eddie] I kept coming back looking,
15:27
I think I got two of them and I kept coming back
15:29
looking for more yellow. - Mm-hmm.
15:33
- [Chris] So Dipladenia, often confused with Mandevilla,
15:35
very similar. - One of em is-
15:36
- This one may be Mandevilla. - just crawling like crazy.
15:39
- That's good. - And the other one's just,
15:40
he's like stunted, he like, hmp.
15:42
- [Chris] Oh okay. - If we cut him,
15:44
will it kind of spread out?
15:46
We cut the ends off a little bit?
15:48
- [Chris] Yeah, you'll encourage thick,
15:50
denser growth rather than running.
15:52
So if you yeah, if you remove- - Yeah.
15:54
- [Chris] If you remove the main node
15:55
what they call the hair stem, the tip of that.
15:57
It's not gonna grow from there anymore.
15:58
It's gonna have to redirect it's growth laterally.
16:00
- Okay. - These are pretty too.
16:02
- [Chris] Yeah, Pentas do great in the sun, all summer long.
16:04
- Okay. - They're an annual.
16:05
- [Paula] Okay.
16:07
- [Chris] But, yeah they're very nice
16:07
also attract pollinators. - Uh-huh.
16:09
Aren't those pretty?
16:11
And these are pretty in this color.
16:14
Well Chris, I could stay here all day long
16:16
if the heat didn't get to me. (chuckles)
16:18
- Thanks Chris. - All right, I understand.
16:18
- These are pretty. - Yeah.
