Amanda: Well, good 
evening, and welcome to

26
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,966
Making It Grow. We're so glad 
that you can join us tonight.

27
00:01:36,966 --> 00:01:39,866
I'm Amanda McNulty. I'm a 
Clemson horticulture agent,

28
00:01:39,866 --> 00:01:42,300
and I get to come here 
with people who

29
00:01:42,300 --> 00:01:44,366
are current about 
what's going on

30
00:01:44,366 --> 00:01:46,000
and what to do 
about problems,

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,500
and it's so much fun to keep 
on learning, and then I get

32
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:51,866
to spend an hour with my 
good friend Terasa Lott,

33
00:01:51,866 --> 00:01:54,633
who is my co-host, 
and Terasa also,

34
00:01:54,633 --> 00:01:58,400
you are overseeing the 
Master Gardener Program,

35
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,800
and in individual counties, 
there are agents who are

36
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,000
getting ready to have classes 
all the time and new people

37
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,433
coming in. It's just a 
wonderful group of people.

38
00:02:06,433 --> 00:02:09,200
<Terasa> It really is an all 
around great group

39
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,100
from the Master Gardener 
coordinators,

40
00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:12,566
our horticulture 
Extension agents,

41
00:02:12,566 --> 00:02:15,433
to the Master Gardener 
volunteers themselves.

42
00:02:15,433 --> 00:02:18,033
Lots of work always to be 
done and lots of questions

43
00:02:18,033 --> 00:02:20,300
as we see from those 
that come into the show.

44
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:23,500
So we always have more than 
plenty of things for them to do.

45
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:25,833
Amanda: Yeah, they really do. 
and I think

46
00:02:25,833 --> 00:02:28,166
people who take that 
course generally like

47
00:02:28,166 --> 00:02:30,000
to talk to other people. 
Terasa: Yes.

48
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,200
Amanda:...and are friendly. 
Terasa: Volunteering

49
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,833
is in their heart. 
Amanda: It sure is.

50
00:02:32,833 --> 00:02:37,200
Well, Campbell Vaughn, you came 
up today as a volunteer for us,

51
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,000
because you work 
the University of Georgia

52
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,933
Extension in Richmond 
County, and that's near

53
00:02:41,933 --> 00:02:45,433
the big city of...Augusta 
>> Augusta. That's right.

54
00:02:45,433 --> 00:02:50,000
Amanda: Augusta is... 
an old city with

55
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,366
an interesting history. 
Campbell: It is.

56
00:02:51,366 --> 00:02:54,133
It is. It's one of those 
that when they were

57
00:02:54,133 --> 00:02:56,000
sort of moving 
agriculture a lot around

58
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,900
people rode up the 
Savannah River

59
00:02:57,900 --> 00:03:00,666
from Savannah and ended up 
dead ending into some

60
00:03:00,666 --> 00:03:03,066
rock shoals and said, 
"Let's set up a camp here,"

61
00:03:03,066 --> 00:03:05,066
and so there was Augusta 
for us, so,

62
00:03:05,066 --> 00:03:06,533
and I've been there 
my whole life,

63
00:03:06,533 --> 00:03:09,800
but it's an old city 
and we're real proud of it.

64
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,166
Amanda: Yeah, and um, 
y'all have

65
00:03:12,166 --> 00:03:13,933
still have a river right 
in the middle of town.

66
00:03:13,933 --> 00:03:16,433
Campbell: It's right there. 
Only a couple blocks away.

67
00:03:16,433 --> 00:03:18,566
Amanda: Do people fish in it? 
Campbell: Yeah, it's great

68
00:03:18,566 --> 00:03:20,833
fishing. It's great fishing. 
It's really well utilized,

69
00:03:20,833 --> 00:03:23,100
and so it's 
been a real good feature

70
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:24,433
for our area.

71
00:03:24,433 --> 00:03:26,833
Amanda: Isn't that 
wonderful!Okay,

72
00:03:26,833 --> 00:03:29,000
and Suzanne Holmes, we were 
at Clemson together

73
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,166
and then we ran into 
each other at the zoo

74
00:03:31,166 --> 00:03:35,100
as mothers taken supervising 
children on a field trip,

75
00:03:35,100 --> 00:03:37,033
and then I 
came to Clemson

76
00:03:37,033 --> 00:03:40,000
and you were in the Aiken office 
as the Extension agent.

77
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,466
Suzanne: Yeah, for 11 or 12 
years I was in the Aiken office

78
00:03:43,466 --> 00:03:45,800
and I retired and I've been 
over to the University of

79
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,533
Georgia for I think about 
11 years now.

80
00:03:48,533 --> 00:03:50,966
I just worked part time over 
there, but it's a lot of fun,

81
00:03:50,966 --> 00:03:52,633
Extension work. 
I enjoy it.

82
00:03:52,633 --> 00:03:54,700
Amanda:...and of 
course since this just

83
00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:58,400
you know, South Carolina 
and Georgia touching each other.

84
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,500
The same things, 
the insects and diseases

85
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:02,900
don't pay attention 
to state lines.

86
00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:04,933
Suzanne: No, they don't, so. 
Amanda: I'm so glad you came.

87
00:04:04,933 --> 00:04:07,466
Thank you so much. Suzanne: 
Thank you for inviting me.

88
00:04:07,466 --> 00:04:10,500
Amanda:...and Bill Guess 
you're at BB Barns,

89
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:13,400
and I think you have two 
nurseries

90
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,100
to look after, two locations.

91
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:19,900
Bill: Two locations, 
one out in Irmo on Dreher Shoals

92
00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:21,433
and one in the 
Northeast

93
00:04:21,433 --> 00:04:22,700
right off of Two Notch Road.

94
00:04:22,700 --> 00:04:25,200
Amanda: Okay. Are they 
both about the same

95
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,700
degree of busyness?

96
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:29,100
Bill: They're both 
similar size.

97
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:33,033
They're on different sides of 
town but similar size nurseries,

98
00:04:33,033 --> 00:04:35,666
and a lot of 
the same people will go

99
00:04:35,666 --> 00:04:39,766
from store to store. Amanda: Do 
they really? Bill: Occasionally.

100
00:04:39,766 --> 00:04:40,833
Amanda: Yes, that's fun.

101
00:04:40,833 --> 00:04:43,866
Anyway, and so Columbia is 
growing so

102
00:04:43,866 --> 00:04:46,066
nothing's right 
downtown much anymore

103
00:04:46,066 --> 00:04:48,733
because out of all the 
homes and developments

104
00:04:48,733 --> 00:04:50,500
and all are kind of on the 
outside of town.

105
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:52,100
Bill: Right, so we're 
able to cover this side

106
00:04:52,100 --> 00:04:53,566
and that side.

107
00:04:53,566 --> 00:04:55,000
Amanda: Okay. Got it covered. 
>> Yes, ma'am.

108
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,200
Amanda: Okay, glad to hear it.

109
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,633
Well, Terasa, you 
often have

110
00:04:59,633 --> 00:05:02,400
Gardens of the Week for us. Did 
we have some this week?

111
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,400
Terasa: We sure do. We are going 
to begin our virtual

112
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,366
field trip with a 
photograph shared by

113
00:05:08,366 --> 00:05:12,466
P.S. Lane of tangerine flowers 
of cross vine

114
00:05:12,466 --> 00:05:14,233
growing on a fence.

115
00:05:14,233 --> 00:05:18,633
From Cindy Fowler. 
She shot a grape vineyard

116
00:05:18,633 --> 00:05:21,600
at Parker Bins 
Winery in Mill Springs,

117
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,500
North Carolina. Sandie 
Parrot shared her drift roses

118
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:28,000
along the walkway, 
and she reports that they

119
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,566
are single and double flowers 
in shades of pink and red.

120
00:05:32,566 --> 00:05:35,200
From Kevin 
Overbeck. We venture

121
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,166
outside of the world of 
plants a bit. He shared

122
00:05:38,166 --> 00:05:41,866
Limpkins birds nesting in 
their shoreline vegetation,

123
00:05:41,866 --> 00:05:43,500
and of course, 
as someone who

124
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:45,766
worked in water quality, 
I love to see shoreline

125
00:05:45,766 --> 00:05:48,033
vegetation and the 
benefits it provides

126
00:05:48,033 --> 00:05:51,966
including wildlife 
habitat, and we finish up

127
00:05:51,966 --> 00:05:55,166
with a photograph from 
Spike, who shared his

128
00:05:55,166 --> 00:05:58,666
gorgeous raised beds of 
lettuces and spinach,

129
00:05:58,666 --> 00:06:01,900
complete with a bountiful 
harvest. So thanks,

130
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:04,366
all of you for 
submitting your photographs.

131
00:06:04,366 --> 00:06:06,600
I love seeing them come in. 
Don't be shy.

132
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,900
If you see us make 
a post that says call

133
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:10,100
for gardens of the week.

134
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:12,566
All you have to do is post 
your photo in the comments,

135
00:06:12,566 --> 00:06:14,600
and then we 
randomly select a few

136
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,266
to host on the show.

137
00:06:16,266 --> 00:06:18,433
Amanda:...and people can see the 
ones that we don't have

138
00:06:18,433 --> 00:06:21,000
room for, by just visiting 
our Facebook page.

139
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,533
Is that correct? 
Terasa: That is right.

140
00:06:22,533 --> 00:06:24,266
Amanda: All right, 
well, thank you so much,

141
00:06:24,266 --> 00:06:27,566
and um, and in 
a little bit,

142
00:06:27,566 --> 00:06:29,800
In the middle of the show, 
we're going to have a segment

143
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,566
for you when Holly Beaumier 
came here with

144
00:06:32,566 --> 00:06:35,700
succulents from her 
business, Growing Hobby,

145
00:06:35,700 --> 00:06:37,866
and it was really fun 
to have her here.

146
00:06:37,866 --> 00:06:40,100
I think you told us about her. 
Thank you so much Terasa.

147
00:06:40,100 --> 00:06:42,233
Terasa: You're welcome. >> So, 
we really do appreciate that.

148
00:06:42,233 --> 00:06:45,533
Well, we always say we're going 
to try to help people with

149
00:06:45,533 --> 00:06:47,900
questions and problems. 
So how should we begin?

150
00:06:49,066 --> 00:06:52,466
Terasa: We'll see if we can help 
Denise in Columbia

151
00:06:52,466 --> 00:06:55,633
who said I'd really like to 
grow roses, but we have

152
00:06:55,633 --> 00:06:57,833
had so many problems in 
their past.

153
00:06:57,833 --> 00:07:02,333
Are there any foolproof roses? 
(Amanda laughs)

154
00:07:02,333 --> 00:07:03,766
>> Poor thing. 
I can understand

155
00:07:03,766 --> 00:07:05,400
why she's frustrated 
because that you know

156
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,500
there are disease issues. 
Blackspot is a problem

157
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:11,433
and we've seen rose 
rosette virus as well.

158
00:07:11,433 --> 00:07:13,833
So, I'm hoping the panel 
has some ideas

159
00:07:13,833 --> 00:07:17,033
Amanda: When I was out visiting 
the children, you know,

160
00:07:17,033 --> 00:07:20,100
in California where 
there's no humidity, and

161
00:07:20,100 --> 00:07:22,733
we were in Washington 
State too, at one time,

162
00:07:22,733 --> 00:07:26,000
they just used them as 
the highway plantings

163
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,633
because they didn't have 
any humidity.

164
00:07:28,633 --> 00:07:30,966
So there weren't... 
any fungal diseases

165
00:07:30,966 --> 00:07:33,400
which I think we do have 
humidity in South Carolina.

166
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,700
Suzanne: Yes. We have 
a lot of humidity.

167
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:37,533
Terasa: We make sure of that. 
(laughing)

168
00:07:37,533 --> 00:07:39,000
Suzanne: ...a lot of humidity.

169
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,966
So one of my 
favorite roses is this one

170
00:07:42,966 --> 00:07:45,766
it's called At Last 
and it's called At Last

171
00:07:45,766 --> 00:07:50,600
because the breeders have 
bred disease resistant

172
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,633
as well as fragrance. So you 
can smell this one

173
00:07:54,633 --> 00:07:58,066
probably over there. It's 
planted at my backyard,

174
00:07:58,066 --> 00:08:00,500
in my back door where I come 
in all the time,

175
00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:04,300
and you can smell it 10 or 15 
feet away and my daughter

176
00:08:04,300 --> 00:08:06,266
actually said, "Oh mama 
that is the most

177
00:08:06,266 --> 00:08:10,133
"beautiful rose I've ever 
seen", because it starts out

178
00:08:10,133 --> 00:08:14,200
as a bud and I think 
there is a bud over here

179
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,833
and then it opens up and 
it's just really full

180
00:08:16,833 --> 00:08:19,866
but it's beautiful and it has 
a little, you know,

181
00:08:19,866 --> 00:08:22,166
if it rains a lot. There'll be 
a little black spot

182
00:08:22,166 --> 00:08:24,866
but I can kind of pick them off 
and it doesn't spread

183
00:08:24,866 --> 00:08:28,066
through the whole thing. 
So that and so they are

184
00:08:28,066 --> 00:08:30,366
breeding them. So, we can grow 
in the south you know

185
00:08:30,366 --> 00:08:33,100
it started with knockouts and 
then we got the rose rosette.

186
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:35,766
So we're going to 
see it spread, you know

187
00:08:35,766 --> 00:08:39,833
some of these but, um...and 
so this is bred

188
00:08:39,833 --> 00:08:43,700
as a kind of tea rose floribunda 
that has fragrance

189
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:48,266
and there's also another 
one called Brindabella roses

190
00:08:48,266 --> 00:08:50,766
and they're more 
like tea roses and they

191
00:08:50,766 --> 00:08:53,866
also have some disease 
resistance in them,

192
00:08:53,866 --> 00:08:56,633
and so you can find them 
in the garden centers now

193
00:08:56,633 --> 00:09:00,666
and BB Barns, 
what kind do you grow?

194
00:09:00,666 --> 00:09:03,633
Bill: We have a new 
one that's rise up rose.

195
00:09:03,633 --> 00:09:09,066
It's a mini climber and it has 
sort of the trifecta of things

196
00:09:09,066 --> 00:09:10,966
that you're looking for 
out of a rose, disease

197
00:09:10,966 --> 00:09:17,300
resistance, re-blooming and 
scent. So, and if you've

198
00:09:17,300 --> 00:09:19,633
ever grown climbing roses 
before you know that they

199
00:09:19,633 --> 00:09:21,933
can get away from you. 
They can be really

200
00:09:21,933 --> 00:09:25,000
monsters in the garden. 
This one's kind of top out.

201
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,500
It says five feet, 
probably more like seven,

202
00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:33,033
but it's a climbing rose 
that will mind its manners.

203
00:09:33,033 --> 00:09:35,666
Amanda:...and healthy 
foliage. Bill:...and healthy

204
00:09:35,666 --> 00:09:38,966
foliage. It has disease 
resistance to it also.

205
00:09:38,966 --> 00:09:41,200
Amanda:If they got rid of the 
stickers or do you still be

206
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,633
kind of careful? 
Bill: There's a couple,

207
00:09:42,633 --> 00:09:44,566
but it's not really bad. 
Amanda: Come on. Really?

208
00:09:44,566 --> 00:09:47,866
Bill: Not bad. Amanda: Wow! 
Gosh, what an amazing rose.

209
00:09:47,866 --> 00:09:50,233
Well, Susan that color 
is so pretty

210
00:09:50,233 --> 00:09:53,266
Suzanne: I think it is. 
I love peach colored flowers

211
00:09:53,266 --> 00:09:56,066
and I think that one's 
just...it...has the right...

212
00:09:56,066 --> 00:09:57,833
Amanda: You grew up 
as a peach girl

213
00:09:57,833 --> 00:09:59,266
Terasa: It kind of matches 
my cardigan.

214
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:01,266
Suzanne: Yeah, it does. 
It matches some.

215
00:10:01,266 --> 00:10:03,400
Amanda: We have to get one 
and pin it on you, Terasa.

216
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,366
If anyone should 
have a corsage, it's you.

217
00:10:06,366 --> 00:10:08,800
Terasa: I've heard good things 
about the Earth-Kind roses.

218
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,833
Have you heard about 
the Earth-Kind series?

219
00:10:10,833 --> 00:10:12,700
Suzanne: The University of Texas 
came out with the

220
00:10:12,700 --> 00:10:16,366
Earth-Kind roses and they 
breed the disease resistance,

221
00:10:16,366 --> 00:10:18,466
and so it's 
ones that you don't have

222
00:10:18,466 --> 00:10:22,366
to constantly put out 
spray for, and they, if you go,

223
00:10:22,366 --> 00:10:23,666
Well, it's been 
a couple of years

224
00:10:23,666 --> 00:10:25,100
since I went to their website,

225
00:10:25,100 --> 00:10:27,200
but it had 
the list of roses,

226
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,000
and that they 
were really, you know,

227
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,733
which one's more 
disease resistance,

228
00:10:30,733 --> 00:10:33,266
and there are some that have 
been out around,

229
00:10:33,266 --> 00:10:36,966
you know, 100 years, 50 years 
that are disease resistant.

230
00:10:36,966 --> 00:10:39,533
That's why they named them 
the Earth-kind roses,

231
00:10:39,533 --> 00:10:40,833
because you 
don't have to spray,

232
00:10:40,833 --> 00:10:42,933
and you know, I'm not much of 
a sprayer, you know,

233
00:10:42,933 --> 00:10:44,466
I just don't 
use a lot of sprays,

234
00:10:44,466 --> 00:10:46,133
because I don't have 
time and I'm lazy and

235
00:10:46,133 --> 00:10:49,000
I've got other things to do.

236
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,233
Amanda: Isn't it wonderful that 
we can have this glorious

237
00:10:51,233 --> 00:10:55,333
collection of flowers, and not 
have to say, oh, Lord,

238
00:10:55,333 --> 00:10:58,033
I'd like to take a nap, but I 
got to go spray the darn roses?

239
00:10:58,033 --> 00:10:59,466
Suzanne:...and they 
repeat, you know,

240
00:10:59,466 --> 00:11:01,966
...it used to be they'd bloom 
twice a year, and that was it,

241
00:11:01,966 --> 00:11:04,666
but these, they'll bloom 
and then they'll stop...

242
00:11:04,666 --> 00:11:07,300
and they bloom again, 
and it's kind of

243
00:11:07,300 --> 00:11:09,066
wonderful to sell 
them now, isn't it?

244
00:11:09,066 --> 00:11:10,766
Bill: Absolutely.

245
00:11:10,766 --> 00:11:12,433
Amanda: I think some 
people even for a while

246
00:11:12,433 --> 00:11:14,233
were going around 
to old cemeteries

247
00:11:14,233 --> 00:11:16,866
and trying to find roses there, 
and so I think they were the

248
00:11:16,866 --> 00:11:19,333
kind of the basis of some 
of that genetic material too,

249
00:11:19,333 --> 00:11:22,000
because, you know, if you can 
last in an old cemetery,

250
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,633
you know, that's, (laughs) 
that's saying something for you

251
00:11:25,633 --> 00:11:28,833
You might get to fertilize them, 
but other than that,

252
00:11:28,833 --> 00:11:30,633
-okay, well, 
how about delightful,

253
00:11:30,633 --> 00:11:33,233
Thank you. 
Okay, what Teresa

254
00:11:33,233 --> 00:11:36,633
Terasa: Grant from Blackville 
submitted a question. He said,

255
00:11:36,633 --> 00:11:38,900
I've heard you talk 
about the importance

256
00:11:38,900 --> 00:11:41,633
of not planting 
invasive plants.

257
00:11:41,633 --> 00:11:44,300
So kudos for paying attention 
about that.

258
00:11:44,300 --> 00:11:47,300
I'm thinking of planting 
Confederate Jasmine.

259
00:11:47,300 --> 00:11:48,700
Is this okay?

260
00:11:48,700 --> 00:11:50,033
What do we think?

261
00:11:50,033 --> 00:11:51,733
Or some people 
might call it star...

262
00:11:51,733 --> 00:11:53,700
Star Jasmine, I think that's 
the same.

263
00:11:55,033 --> 00:11:57,500
Amanda: Well, Campbell, 
what are your thoughts?

264
00:11:57,500 --> 00:11:59,666
Campbell: I got a lot to say 
about that one. (all laugh)

265
00:11:59,666 --> 00:12:02,533
Susie and I say, 
there's no small vine,

266
00:12:02,533 --> 00:12:04,766
which is not completely true,

267
00:12:04,766 --> 00:12:06,766
but that 
is one and I think people plant

268
00:12:06,766 --> 00:12:08,933
It's evergreen. 
It's got great fragrance,

269
00:12:08,933 --> 00:12:11,433
but it's one that really 
can take over.

270
00:12:11,433 --> 00:12:15,066
I wouldn't say it's near as 
invasive as Kudzu is or,

271
00:12:15,066 --> 00:12:17,000
or the Chinese Wisteria.

272
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,566
You just have to be 
cautious about it.

273
00:12:18,566 --> 00:12:20,900
It is a plant 
that is not afraid to climb

274
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:23,700
to the top of pine 
tree, if you let it.

275
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:26,433
It's got some good, 
good characteristics,

276
00:12:26,433 --> 00:12:29,366
Amanda:...and let me ask you one 
thing. It doesn't seed down like

277
00:12:29,366 --> 00:12:30,633
wisteria and 
things like that.

278
00:12:30,633 --> 00:12:32,366
Campbell: Right. Right. 
It's just going to come

279
00:12:32,366 --> 00:12:34,266
from a single plant, right,

280
00:12:34,266 --> 00:12:36,466
but it will root back out 
when it touches that ground,

281
00:12:36,466 --> 00:12:37,666
it will root back out.

282
00:12:37,666 --> 00:12:39,300
It just turns into a mass.

283
00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:40,566
It's a lot bigger of a plant

284
00:12:40,566 --> 00:12:42,000
than you think 
that it's going to be.

285
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,766
So if you try to plant it 
around your mailbox,

286
00:12:43,766 --> 00:12:46,733
it's, you're going to have to be 
beating it back, with you know,

287
00:12:46,733 --> 00:12:49,633
with a chainsaw. 
You put it on a trellis,

288
00:12:49,633 --> 00:12:53,233
and if it's a trellis 
and it's wooden, it's evergreen,

289
00:12:53,233 --> 00:12:55,000
so it's going to 
trap moisture

290
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,200
and rot your trellis out.

291
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,466
It's just one of those, 
you just,

292
00:12:57,466 --> 00:13:00,400
there's a few good places 
for it, but most of the time,

293
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,933
it's probably not 
the right plant

294
00:13:01,933 --> 00:13:04,200
for the right place.

295
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,466
Amanda: If you had a chain link 
fence or something like that,

296
00:13:07,466 --> 00:13:08,900
that you wanted to 
cover,

297
00:13:08,900 --> 00:13:10,933
would that be a place where 
you might recommend?

298
00:13:10,933 --> 00:13:13,533
Campbell:...so I would, 
it's kind of hard to manage

299
00:13:13,533 --> 00:13:15,400
manage on that 
because it grows out

300
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,166
and it's thick and you got 
to beat it back.

301
00:13:17,166 --> 00:13:19,200
It's just sometimes better not 
to have something than to

302
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,800
force something like that.

303
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,966
I've seen on concrete walls 
that they'll use

304
00:13:22,966 --> 00:13:25,800
in commercial sites. They'll 
run it along the wire

305
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,966
and it does a very good job 
of blocking something

306
00:13:27,966 --> 00:13:30,966
that is hard and gray 
like a concrete wall,

307
00:13:30,966 --> 00:13:34,033
and then I've seen 
...some arbors and stuff,

308
00:13:34,033 --> 00:13:36,200
they do look good. So 
there's a place for them

309
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,166
but you just have to be real 
cautious. Like I said,

310
00:13:38,166 --> 00:13:40,066
there's not a whole lot 
of small vines.

311
00:13:40,066 --> 00:13:42,333
I mean, if he let them, 
they'll grab on a pine tree

312
00:13:42,333 --> 00:13:45,133
and they'll be you know, 
100 feet up before you...

313
00:13:45,133 --> 00:13:48,166
you know it, so. Amanda:...Okay, 
Campbell: It'll grow up

314
00:13:48,166 --> 00:13:50,433
through your soffit and grow up 
into your chimney.

315
00:13:50,433 --> 00:13:53,066
It'll grow under your house, 
that kind of thing, so.

316
00:13:53,066 --> 00:13:55,566
Amanda: Well, it does 
have a wonderful fragrance.

317
00:13:55,566 --> 00:13:58,000
Campbell: It is...it is 
a strong sweet smell

318
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,400
and I can smell it on my 
back porch in May, for sure.

319
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,466
Amanda: From your neighbor's 
house. It's not your yard.

320
00:14:02,466 --> 00:14:03,666
Campbell: It's right 
on the edge,

321
00:14:03,666 --> 00:14:04,966
but it's one 
of those things.

322
00:14:04,966 --> 00:14:07,266
It doesn't care if there's a 
fence there or not. It's coming.

323
00:14:07,266 --> 00:14:09,233
Amanda: So you have to be 
on the lookout for it.

324
00:14:09,233 --> 00:14:11,833
Campbell: That's right. 
Amanda: (laughs) Okey dokey.

325
00:14:11,833 --> 00:14:13,966
Well, I think we've got 
his opinion on that.

326
00:14:16,300 --> 00:14:18,266
Bill, have you got something 
you'd like to share with us?

327
00:14:18,266 --> 00:14:23,133
Bill: Sure. 
This is...a Cuphea,

328
00:14:23,133 --> 00:14:29,133
and it's called vermillionaire 
and Cuphea. It's a beautiful

329
00:14:29,133 --> 00:14:33,500
flower. It will take the 
full sun but...hummingbirds.

330
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:34,900
That's one 
of the biggest reasons

331
00:14:34,900 --> 00:14:37,166
why you would want to 
grow one of these.

332
00:14:37,166 --> 00:14:41,166
These long, tubular flowers 
Amanda: Just made - >> Just made

333
00:14:41,166 --> 00:14:45,900
for hummingbirds, and this 
will continue to grow all

334
00:14:45,900 --> 00:14:50,233
summer. It's very heat 
tolerant. As these stems

335
00:14:50,233 --> 00:14:53,100
grow a little bit longer. 
They will start to sort

336
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:57,266
of arch over and it can 
cascade out of your pot,

337
00:14:57,266 --> 00:15:00,500
but this one little plant 
will become a good,

338
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:04,966
let's say two by two-ish plant 
and bloom straight up

339
00:15:04,966 --> 00:15:09,066
through frost, and by 
that point, you know,

340
00:15:09,066 --> 00:15:11,600
your hummingbirds have 
found it and they will

341
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:18,833
come by at the nursery. 
We have some hummingbirds

342
00:15:18,833 --> 00:15:22,233
last year that would come 
by about 2:30 every day,

343
00:15:22,233 --> 00:15:25,366
fly right in and come to 
this have a little drink

344
00:15:25,366 --> 00:15:27,966
and zip out and go about 
the rest of their day.

345
00:15:27,966 --> 00:15:29,366
Amanda: That was their 
afternoon coffee break.

346
00:15:29,366 --> 00:15:30,800
Bill: 
Afternoon coffee break. Yeah,

347
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,766
Amanda: That is so much 
fun, and isn't it nice

348
00:15:33,766 --> 00:15:36,300
when, you know, when you 
got to nursery and you

349
00:15:36,300 --> 00:15:39,233
know, you got asphalt, 
you know, things going on,

350
00:15:39,233 --> 00:15:41,100
and plants are coming 
and going,

351
00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:44,033
but that animals, some of the 
animals say Oh, well,

352
00:15:44,033 --> 00:15:46,933
you know, while it's there, 
I'm so happy to have it.

353
00:15:46,933 --> 00:15:48,400
Bill: 
They'll come right in.

354
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,100
Amanda: That is fun. 
That really is.

355
00:15:50,100 --> 00:15:53,166
Have you got some feeders up 
too? Bill: No.

356
00:15:53,166 --> 00:15:54,666
Amanda: Don't need to, because 
you've got enough

357
00:15:54,666 --> 00:15:55,900
>> - flowers. Yeah.

358
00:15:55,900 --> 00:15:57,600
Amanda: Okay. Well, 
that's really cool.

359
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:58,600
Thank you so much. 
Okay, Terasa?

360
00:16:00,933 --> 00:16:03,133
Terasa: Let's see if we can 
help Matt in Edgefield,

361
00:16:03,133 --> 00:16:04,333
who writes in

362
00:16:12,133 --> 00:16:13,233
Amanda: Oh, goodness.

363
00:16:13,233 --> 00:16:15,100
I know you try to get 
squash in real early at

364
00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:16,100
your house and then

365
00:16:16,500 --> 00:16:18,233
you get... 
Terasa: Squash vine borers at

366
00:16:18,233 --> 00:16:19,633
my house this year, 
we're trying a new

367
00:16:19,633 --> 00:16:22,633
strategy, we're going 
to grow parthenocarpic

368
00:16:22,633 --> 00:16:25,566
under row covers, and 
so hopefully if I can

369
00:16:25,566 --> 00:16:28,866
keep them out, we'll 
have a better crop

370
00:16:28,866 --> 00:16:32,033
Amanda: Because usually you 
have to have insects

371
00:16:32,033 --> 00:16:33,566
coming in to pollinate 
them because you got

372
00:16:33,566 --> 00:16:35,600
male flowers and female 
flowers, >>Right.<<

373
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,533
This doesn't require that 
parthenocarpic needs it.

374
00:16:37,533 --> 00:16:39,133
So it says It's 
fruit without that.

375
00:16:39,133 --> 00:16:40,200
Terasa: That's right.

376
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,533
Alright, so let's see 
how it does. Keep your

377
00:16:41,533 --> 00:16:42,200
fingers crossed.

378
00:16:42,766 --> 00:16:45,066
Amanda: Okay, we'll see if you 
come in with masses.

379
00:16:45,066 --> 00:16:47,966
Well Suzanne. A lot 
of times people have a

380
00:16:47,966 --> 00:16:50,733
lot of squash early in 
the year and I think

381
00:16:50,733 --> 00:16:52,666
there's even a national 
give zucchini to your

382
00:16:52,666 --> 00:16:57,233
neighbor day. You look 
it up there is but um,

383
00:16:57,233 --> 00:16:59,566
and then cucumbers oh 
gosh, it used to be

384
00:16:59,566 --> 00:17:01,266
just you know the same 
thing Oh, cucumbers, cucumbers.

385
00:17:01,266 --> 00:17:04,733
but um, so 
the squash vine borer

386
00:17:04,733 --> 00:17:05,800
can be a problem 
with the squash.

387
00:17:06,333 --> 00:17:08,466
Suzanne: Cucurbit 
family that came you know,

388
00:17:08,466 --> 00:17:10,566
their first 
cousins and they get

389
00:17:10,566 --> 00:17:12,933
diseases and insect 
some of the diseases

390
00:17:12,933 --> 00:17:15,366
they get are the downy 
mildews and then

391
00:17:15,366 --> 00:17:17,700
there's some others and 
they really take their toll.

392
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:21,100
So you have to 
look for the most

393
00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:24,233
resistant variety so I 
go to seed catalogs and

394
00:17:24,233 --> 00:17:26,166
the more letters they 
have after their name,

395
00:17:26,166 --> 00:17:29,033
this one I go for 
because there's several

396
00:17:29,033 --> 00:17:31,200
there's some rust there's 
several diseases that

397
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,200
get on there anthracnose. 
So that's the first

398
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,100
thing do you find 
the most resistant

399
00:17:36,100 --> 00:17:39,533
diseases and cucumbers 
and you know try to get

400
00:17:39,533 --> 00:17:41,600
them early which is 
hard to do some time

401
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,033
because a lot warmer soil 
and the last two weeks

402
00:17:44,033 --> 00:17:46,600
has been kind of cool. 
You want plenty

403
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,833
of air around them. 
So that helps too

404
00:17:49,833 --> 00:17:53,600
so you know you're the 
grown up trellis some

405
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,000
so that's another way 
and then you know if

406
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,533
you can make them 
through around the

407
00:17:57,533 --> 00:18:00,300
Fourth of July summer 
you know, then you've

408
00:18:00,300 --> 00:18:03,333
done you know you've 
got a lot but I love to

409
00:18:03,333 --> 00:18:05,033
go outside and just 
pick a cucumber right

410
00:18:05,033 --> 00:18:06,900
off the vine and eat it 
direct. Because I love

411
00:18:06,900 --> 00:18:09,533
cucumbers and you know, 
now the big thing is

412
00:18:09,533 --> 00:18:12,266
pick you know the, the 
refrigerator dill

413
00:18:12,266 --> 00:18:14,633
pickles are absolutely 
I grow dill next to it.

414
00:18:14,633 --> 00:18:16,433
and they're wonderful, 
you know refrigerated

415
00:18:16,433 --> 00:18:18,066
dill pickles and they cost a

416
00:18:18,066 --> 00:18:19,766
lot in the store. and 
they're and you know,

417
00:18:19,766 --> 00:18:22,466
they're so easy to do. 
and then you have of

418
00:18:22,466 --> 00:18:24,533
course the insects like 
you mentioned squash

419
00:18:24,533 --> 00:18:28,066
vine borers, and you 
know they get in,

420
00:18:28,066 --> 00:18:30,833
they get in the squash and 
you know they bore up

421
00:18:30,833 --> 00:18:32,900
in there and then the 
squash just falls over.

422
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:35,366
Amanda: That's where 
the vascular system is.

423
00:18:35,366 --> 00:18:38,400
Suzanne: You can cut like a solo 
cup and put it around

424
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,200
the stem if you do 
it early because that

425
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,100
stem gets big and that 
can keep them away and

426
00:18:43,100 --> 00:18:45,500
we already had Campbell 
sent me a picture

427
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:47,800
yesterday and said what 
chewed this off and it

428
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,933
was cutworms you know 
the plants were this

429
00:18:49,933 --> 00:18:52,366
high were chewed off 
and then you got pickle

430
00:18:52,366 --> 00:18:55,066
worms that get in your 
cucumbers but you can

431
00:18:55,066 --> 00:18:57,100
spray for them but try 
to spray in the late

432
00:18:57,100 --> 00:19:00,266
afternoon because they 
need those pollinators

433
00:19:00,266 --> 00:19:02,833
so spray late as you 
can in afternoon dusk.

434
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,566
Amanda: When the pollinators 
are going to bed.

435
00:19:05,566 --> 00:19:07,566
Suzanne: Yeah, when the 
pollinators gone to bed

436
00:19:07,566 --> 00:19:10,466
and so those are some 
of the things you can use.

437
00:19:11,133 --> 00:19:12,666
Amanda: Is the downy 
mildew the one that

438
00:19:12,666 --> 00:19:14,133
moves up from Florida?

439
00:19:14,766 --> 00:19:16,100
Suzanne: It moves 
from Florida and you

440
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:20,666
have powdery and downy on 
cucumbers and squash so

441
00:19:20,666 --> 00:19:21,833
you have both of them.

442
00:19:21,833 --> 00:19:23,300
Amanda: but the downy 
mildew if I'm not

443
00:19:23,300 --> 00:19:26,133
mistaken is the 
whatever, you know,

444
00:19:26,133 --> 00:19:31,066
strain or you know, is 
we can't afford to buy

445
00:19:31,066 --> 00:19:36,066
the treatment that the 
commercial farmers use.

446
00:19:36,066 --> 00:19:37,733
Suzanne: We 
don't like to spray on

447
00:19:37,733 --> 00:19:41,566
our home ground things. 
You know, sometimes I

448
00:19:41,566 --> 00:19:44,333
have used a little 
fungicide I mean I do

449
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:46,500
sell because I want to 
help them a little bit longer.

450
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:47,400
Amanda: But I don't

451
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,600
think that if 
you got downy mildew

452
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,533
that the fungicide that 
you and I get in is

453
00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:52,533
gonna be effective.

454
00:19:52,533 --> 00:19:54,566
Suzanne: One thing I use 
is a dead bug brew

455
00:19:54,566 --> 00:19:56,866
which is a you know, 
organic one.

456
00:19:56,866 --> 00:20:01,466
It's called something dead 
bug. I mean, and I use

457
00:20:01,466 --> 00:20:05,500
it and I use also 
Bonide Eight, which is

458
00:20:05,500 --> 00:20:09,066
a permethrin kind of 
product, you know,

459
00:20:09,066 --> 00:20:11,766
I use them very sparingly 
late in the day and

460
00:20:11,766 --> 00:20:14,966
late in the day, I try 
to keep my pollinators alive.

461
00:20:15,300 --> 00:20:16,666
Terasa: And as a good 
extension agent, we

462
00:20:16,666 --> 00:20:19,766
know she always reads and 
follows the pesticide label.

463
00:20:21,333 --> 00:20:23,566
Amanda: And it used to be that 
people use dust, and

464
00:20:23,566 --> 00:20:26,833
then we found out that 
you know, the dust that

465
00:20:26,833 --> 00:20:29,166
is gonna be active when 
the bees come.

466
00:20:29,166 --> 00:20:32,466
So we never want to use those. 
In most situations,

467
00:20:33,066 --> 00:20:34,600
Suzanne: You just 
have to be as careful

468
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,433
as you can read the 
instructions and

469
00:20:37,433 --> 00:20:41,100
hopefully you don't. 
Also the other thing you need

470
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:44,333
to check is, how long 
before heart Can you spray.

471
00:20:44,333 --> 00:20:46,733
So you want to 
use some of your more

472
00:20:46,733 --> 00:20:49,433
organic stuff that only 
half a day, you know,

473
00:20:49,433 --> 00:20:52,566
pre harvest interval is 
what P H I and that's how

474
00:20:52,566 --> 00:20:56,000
many hours or days you 
can eat this, you know,

475
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,066
after the last spray it. 
So that's another good thing.

476
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,900
Amanda: Thank you so 
much. Well, let's see

477
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:02,900
what else is sitting 
around the nursery that

478
00:21:02,900 --> 00:21:05,233
you just so kindly 
picked up and brought,

479
00:21:05,233 --> 00:21:08,233
oh, gosh, talk about shiny. 
Did you polish that?

480
00:21:08,833 --> 00:21:11,000
Bill>>: I did not let's 
come on Super shining

481
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:16,100
just like that. 
It's a Kangaroo Paw fern.

482
00:21:16,100 --> 00:21:18,900
So I like these, this is a 
shade, you know

483
00:21:18,900 --> 00:21:21,433
suitable for your front porch. 
This is a little

484
00:21:21,433 --> 00:21:25,566
bit smaller one, 
we have some bigger pots.

485
00:21:25,566 --> 00:21:28,433
and It's surprisingly Hardy. 
If anything,

486
00:21:28,433 --> 00:21:32,000
anywhere you would put 
like a Boston Fern,

487
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,933
on your front porch, 
this would work well.

488
00:21:34,933 --> 00:21:39,266
but it has a little bit better 
cold tolerance.

489
00:21:39,266 --> 00:21:42,100
And if as it grows, 
if you can see around the edges,

490
00:21:42,100 --> 00:21:44,266
it'll grow right over 
the edge of the pot.

491
00:21:44,666 --> 00:21:48,866
and so as this grows, 
it'll grow over and cover

492
00:21:48,866 --> 00:21:54,333
the entire pot. and you 
will have this big

493
00:21:54,333 --> 00:21:58,266
fluffy fern. Now 
most of the time at the

494
00:21:58,266 --> 00:22:01,633
end of the summer, 
you have to just

495
00:22:01,633 --> 00:22:05,433
throw those ferns away. 
Or try and put them in

496
00:22:05,433 --> 00:22:07,433
your garage or have and 
help you try and

497
00:22:07,433 --> 00:22:10,300
bring it inside. 
Because they will It's huge.

498
00:22:10,300 --> 00:22:13,566
and they will drop leaves. 
Sure no matter

499
00:22:13,566 --> 00:22:15,433
how good you take care 
it's gonna drop leaves.

500
00:22:15,433 --> 00:22:19,400
Yeah, so this one, 
you've got actual

501
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,000
leaves on here. 
So if you bring this

502
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,466
inside, it'll 
overwinter just fine.

503
00:22:24,466 --> 00:22:26,933
and if one of these leaves dies, 
it'll just hang on here.

504
00:22:26,933 --> 00:22:29,233
It's not like you 
got a big mess.

505
00:22:29,233 --> 00:22:31,766
You don't make a mess. 
and then you put

506
00:22:31,766 --> 00:22:34,266
it back out in the 
spring and it starts

507
00:22:34,266 --> 00:22:36,933
putting on new leaves. 
and if you've kept it

508
00:22:36,933 --> 00:22:39,200
well it might look 
good, right straight

509
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,466
when you put it out. 
That's something you

510
00:22:42,466 --> 00:22:45,400
could have for several years, 
and each year it would

511
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,100
just look better 
and better.

512
00:22:47,533 --> 00:22:50,800
Amanda: That shine on 
it is just remarkable,

513
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,900
isn't it? >>They do stay

514
00:22:51,900 --> 00:22:55,533
Bill>>: pretty clean, 
beautiful. and just has

515
00:22:55,533 --> 00:22:57,133
that real tropical feel 
to it.

516
00:22:57,133 --> 00:22:59,633
Amanda: It does. On a 
hot day. You just go.

517
00:23:00,133 --> 00:23:02,066
Oh, it can't be all 
that bad. Because look

518
00:23:02,066 --> 00:23:03,000
how beautiful the fern is.

519
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,100
Bill>>: Beautiful green 
fern.

520
00:23:04,100 --> 00:23:05,366
Amanda: Thank you so much. 
That was really fun.

521
00:23:05,366 --> 00:23:13,500
Okay, Over in 
Florence at the fair at

522
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:15,833
the farmers market. 
I think that's where it

523
00:23:15,833 --> 00:23:18,233
is, isn't it Terasa? 
may have some people

524
00:23:18,233 --> 00:23:20,333
are there all the time, 
which is fun, not just

525
00:23:20,333 --> 00:23:22,133
when people have 
watermelons and squash

526
00:23:22,133 --> 00:23:24,633
and cucumbers the 
farmers bring them in

527
00:23:24,633 --> 00:23:26,900
to make them available 
to their customers.

528
00:23:26,900 --> 00:23:30,666
and so Holly Beaumier 
has decided that she's

529
00:23:30,666 --> 00:23:32,533
going to have a all 
year round business

530
00:23:32,533 --> 00:23:35,033
there of succulents and 
she came and talked to

531
00:23:35,033 --> 00:23:40,666
us about it was pretty 
fascinating.

532
00:23:40,666 --> 00:23:43,533
Well, my guest today is 
Holly Beaumier from

533
00:23:43,533 --> 00:23:46,733
Florence, and she has a 
business called Growing Hobby.

534
00:23:46,733 --> 00:23:48,633
and It's all about succulents.

535
00:23:48,633 --> 00:23:51,433
Holly: That's right. 
and Amanda,

536
00:23:51,433 --> 00:23:52,733
thank you for having me.

537
00:23:52,733 --> 00:23:54,600
Amanda: Oh, I'm just delighted. 
I'm already so excited

538
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,833
about all this. 
So, first of all, what

539
00:23:56,833 --> 00:23:58,833
would be an overall 
definition of a succulent?

540
00:23:59,366 --> 00:24:02,700
Holly: Succulents are plants 
that store water

541
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:03,800
for drought periods.

542
00:24:04,566 --> 00:24:06,500
Amanda: So what are some 
examples?

543
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:12,200
Holly: Your typical cacti are 
succulents and also

544
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,833
Aloe most people are 
familiar with aloe.

545
00:24:15,833 --> 00:24:19,566
and one of the most common 
especially like three

546
00:24:19,566 --> 00:24:23,300
generations passing 
them along are the

547
00:24:23,300 --> 00:24:26,933
hens and chicks. So these are 
really cool because

548
00:24:26,933 --> 00:24:29,166
there's a center hen 
and then the chicks

549
00:24:29,166 --> 00:24:31,900
grow around her. 
Sometimes you'll see

550
00:24:31,900 --> 00:24:34,100
the hen die away so 
that the chicks have

551
00:24:34,100 --> 00:24:35,166
more room to grow.

552
00:24:35,166 --> 00:24:39,066
Amanda: I've seen in old 
yards some that were

553
00:24:39,066 --> 00:24:42,366
kind of gray and flatter. 
You said there

554
00:24:42,366 --> 00:24:44,066
are many different 
types of hens and chicks.

555
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,066
Holly: There are there are and 
I feel like every year

556
00:24:47,066 --> 00:24:48,700
there are more different types 
as they hybridize.

557
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,400
Amanda: This is unusual in 
that this one is can

558
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,966
survive our winters 
outside correct the

559
00:24:54,966 --> 00:24:58,366
others are a little bit 
cold tender.

560
00:24:58,366 --> 00:25:02,033
About 40 degrees? 
Holly: About 40 I would

561
00:25:02,033 --> 00:25:04,933
start bringing in your 
plants, the succulents.

562
00:25:04,933 --> 00:25:06,566
Amanda: Alright, well, while 
we're here, should we

563
00:25:06,566 --> 00:25:07,700
talk some about these?

564
00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:11,433
Holly: Sure, sure. Another 
typical succulent is

565
00:25:11,433 --> 00:25:14,233
the trailing type 
string of pearls of bananas.

566
00:25:14,233 --> 00:25:16,733
This one is 
string of dolphins.

567
00:25:16,733 --> 00:25:20,266
and I just wanted to bring 
this along because the

568
00:25:20,266 --> 00:25:26,300
seeds that it puts out is, 
this is how it will

569
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:29,266
propagate on its own. 
You can also just

570
00:25:29,266 --> 00:25:32,566
snip and leave the 
piece out for a couple

571
00:25:32,566 --> 00:25:34,133
of days and then stick 
it in the dirt and

572
00:25:34,133 --> 00:25:35,533
you'll have a new plant.

573
00:25:35,533 --> 00:25:37,633
Amanda: And that's one reason 
that people love these so much.

574
00:25:37,633 --> 00:25:39,533
They're so simple to propagate.

575
00:25:39,533 --> 00:25:44,166
>>Yes.<< and so are there 
some in here

576
00:25:44,166 --> 00:25:47,333
that have some other 
interesting features?

577
00:25:47,333 --> 00:25:50,500
Holly: Yes we have Haworthia, 
It's called lawyers tongue

578
00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:55,733
or Ox Tongue. It has 
these pups growing out.

579
00:25:55,733 --> 00:25:57,533
and as soon as those 
get a little bit of

580
00:25:57,533 --> 00:25:59,000
traction with some 
roots, you can cut

581
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,633
those off and propagate 
from there.

582
00:26:03,633 --> 00:26:07,233
This type of aloe, It's 
a tiger tooth aloe.

583
00:26:07,233 --> 00:26:11,500
It grows straight up. and 
It's a type of climbing aloe.

584
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:15,666
and it also pups 
out pups. So you can

585
00:26:15,666 --> 00:26:17,866
cut out the pups. 
and you can also just cut

586
00:26:17,866 --> 00:26:20,666
it in the middle and 
let it callus over a

587
00:26:20,666 --> 00:26:22,566
little bit harden up 
and then just put it

588
00:26:22,566 --> 00:26:23,633
straight in the dirt also. 
Amanda: And there's

589
00:26:23,633 --> 00:26:25,366
this like an aloe in 
that you could break it

590
00:26:25,366 --> 00:26:26,166
off and use it.

591
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,333
Holly: You can also use for 
medicinal purposes yes.

592
00:26:29,333 --> 00:26:33,766
Amanda: All right. 
and then got a little delicate.

593
00:26:33,766 --> 00:26:36,133
Holly: Yes, yes, 
that's a string of turtles.

594
00:26:36,133 --> 00:26:38,266
That's something new that they

595
00:26:38,266 --> 00:26:40,966
came out with. 
It's just It's a type of

596
00:26:40,966 --> 00:26:44,633
Peperomia It's kind of 
a pseudo succulent,

597
00:26:44,633 --> 00:26:48,600
I treat it a little bit 
more like a typical houseplant.

598
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,566
Amanda: So you said they're 
even on people who are

599
00:26:51,566 --> 00:26:53,333
doing this and 
propagating it. Some of

600
00:26:53,333 --> 00:26:56,300
them are protected 
under a patent for a

601
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:57,366
certain amount of time.

602
00:26:57,366 --> 00:27:01,800
Holly: Yes. So I need to 
make sure that I take

603
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,400
care and not pull off a 
couple of leaves and

604
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,766
start a new plant because 
that's not my property.

605
00:27:08,300 --> 00:27:10,966
Amanda: Yeah, no, that's right. 
Yeah, a lot to be aware of.

606
00:27:10,966 --> 00:27:13,400
and then let's talk 
a little bit about the

607
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,833
medium that you have them in.

608
00:27:15,666 --> 00:27:18,366
Holly: All of the plants that 
we have at Growing Hobby

609
00:27:18,366 --> 00:27:23,100
are put into a 
mix of potting soil,

610
00:27:23,100 --> 00:27:25,900
Coco quar, which is 
ground up coconut

611
00:27:25,900 --> 00:27:28,266
shells, and a special clay 
coming out of California.

612
00:27:29,133 --> 00:27:31,533
Amanda: And that's for that 
that is because of the

613
00:27:31,533 --> 00:27:33,000
pH that you want?

614
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,266
Holly: The pH and 
also for drainage.

615
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:39,233
Amanda: So that you said 
that, while most plants

616
00:27:39,233 --> 00:27:41,333
have that little 
window, you know, the

617
00:27:41,333 --> 00:27:44,566
upper fives and sixes, 
these prefer are very low.

618
00:27:44,566 --> 00:27:46,966
Holly: 5.5 That's what 
we're going for.

619
00:27:47,233 --> 00:27:49,633
Amanda: That's, that's probably 
what you'd find in a

620
00:27:49,633 --> 00:27:52,900
lot of South Carolina 
soils. Okay, and then

621
00:27:52,900 --> 00:27:56,400
I'm over here. So, 
these are cacti and

622
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,533
cacti are succulents, but 
not all succulents are cacti.

623
00:27:58,533 --> 00:28:00,066
Holly: That's correct. 
Amanda: Okay. All right.

624
00:28:00,066 --> 00:28:03,066
These all look like they

625
00:28:03,066 --> 00:28:05,666
might not have stick 
they might have

626
00:28:05,666 --> 00:28:07,100
something on him that 
you wouldn't want to

627
00:28:07,100 --> 00:28:07,866
get your fingers.

628
00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:10,966
Holly: This one right here 
he's old man in the mountain.

629
00:28:10,966 --> 00:28:14,066
He does have 
thorns but you can see

630
00:28:14,066 --> 00:28:20,733
he also has a beard as 
they grow hair and and

631
00:28:20,733 --> 00:28:24,366
the thorns also in part 
are to help with shading

632
00:28:24,366 --> 00:28:26,066
the plants whenever 
it gets really sunny.

633
00:28:26,066 --> 00:28:29,666
So the thorns of 
course protected

634
00:28:29,666 --> 00:28:31,800
from predators. 
and then it also

635
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:36,966
provides... it also 
collects dew and

636
00:28:36,966 --> 00:28:40,966
cuts down on the wind 
evaporatorating.

637
00:28:40,966 --> 00:28:44,700
Amanda: So but so there's no 
such thing as too

638
00:28:44,700 --> 00:28:45,800
much sun for them.

639
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,733
Holly: Oh, there is, Yeah. In 
fact, many of the

640
00:28:47,733 --> 00:28:53,133
plants will keep all of 
their pores closed

641
00:28:53,133 --> 00:28:57,933
during the day and 
then they will do their

642
00:28:57,933 --> 00:29:03,933
photosynthesizing at night. 
Amanda: So so all of

643
00:29:03,933 --> 00:29:06,766
these have this kind of 
glaucous look to them.

644
00:29:06,766 --> 00:29:08,766
For that reason that 
sun protection.

645
00:29:08,766 --> 00:29:10,866
>>It is, It's sun protection.<< 
Gosh, isn't that something?

646
00:29:10,866 --> 00:29:14,400
Holly: And some 
look like they are just

647
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,066
nice and furry, but 
those are prickles?

648
00:29:16,066 --> 00:29:18,233
Amanda: Yeah. Was trying to 
better Oh, yeah,

649
00:29:18,233 --> 00:29:19,633
wouldn't you know 
sometimes there's a

650
00:29:19,633 --> 00:29:22,033
little prickles for the 
worse ones. >>Yes, yes.<<

651
00:29:22,033 --> 00:29:25,166
Okay. Now cacti I 
guess, aren't they?

652
00:29:25,166 --> 00:29:27,000
They wouldn't be quite 
as easy to propagate.

653
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,400
Maybe It's one of these 
fellas.

654
00:29:28,766 --> 00:29:31,333
Holly: You'd be surprised 
these guys. You can

655
00:29:31,333 --> 00:29:34,466
just cut them in half, 
and just put the

656
00:29:34,466 --> 00:29:36,600
other half in the ground. 
This one would callus

657
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,100
over at the top 
but probably grow too.

658
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:42,000
Amanda: Oh, well. Isn't that 
something these are...

659
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,866
Holly: These ones like to stay 
in a grouping.

660
00:29:45,866 --> 00:29:48,466
Their seeds don't 
travel very far.

661
00:29:48,466 --> 00:29:49,433
They just dropped straight down.

662
00:29:49,433 --> 00:29:51,133
Amanda: So in nature, you'd 
find them.

663
00:29:51,133 --> 00:29:53,033
They're really handsome. 
I like that one.

664
00:29:53,033 --> 00:29:53,166
Holly: These wtill grow to 
about 30 feet tall.

665
00:29:54,366 --> 00:29:57,500
Amanda: Oh goodness, and they're 
native to different places.

666
00:29:57,966 --> 00:30:00,000
Holly: Those would be 
mountainous.

667
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,366
Amanda: Mountainous?

668
00:30:02,366 --> 00:30:04,566
How interesting because we 
think of them as. You know?

669
00:30:05,866 --> 00:30:08,966
>>Yes, yes.<< So they're really 
varied in where they grow.

670
00:30:10,033 --> 00:30:12,200
Holly: And we were just 
talking about seeds

671
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,466
and how far away they fall.

672
00:30:15,466 --> 00:30:20,500
There is haworthia here. 
This one is really cool

673
00:30:20,500 --> 00:30:24,366
because seed is at the 
tip of that inflorescence.

674
00:30:24,366 --> 00:30:28,000
So its 
goal is to get the seed

675
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,100
out as far away from it 
as it can, and drop

676
00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:34,333
those seeds so that 
those seeds have

677
00:30:34,333 --> 00:30:35,133
a chance to live.

678
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,766
Amanda: Now, most of these have 
low water requirements

679
00:30:39,766 --> 00:30:42,500
is that correct? >>yes, that is 
correct.<< and grow in

680
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:47,200
places that have a 
drier soil?

681
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,800
Holly: For the most part. Yes. 
Now these ones

682
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,033
prefer to have shade 
over them.

683
00:30:54,033 --> 00:30:57,233
Amanda: My goodness. Well, and 
this one you said has

684
00:30:57,233 --> 00:30:58,633
the most interesting 
thing in the world

685
00:30:58,633 --> 00:30:59,900
going on? What would it 
look like if you

686
00:30:59,900 --> 00:31:02,633
stumbled across it in 
its native area?

687
00:31:02,633 --> 00:31:05,266
Holly: You might not even see 
it, if you if you were

688
00:31:05,266 --> 00:31:07,300
going in its native 
area, it actually

689
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:09,100
buries itself in the 
ground. So all you

690
00:31:09,100 --> 00:31:10,833
would see are these tiny 
little tips up at the top.

691
00:31:10,833 --> 00:31:15,600
And these tips 
have, we call them

692
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,633
stained glass windows, 
and they let the sun

693
00:31:18,633 --> 00:31:22,233
in. and, you know, if 
it only had this much

694
00:31:22,233 --> 00:31:24,533
surface for the sun to 
do its photosynthesis,

695
00:31:24,533 --> 00:31:27,233
it would have a hard 
time. But what it does

696
00:31:27,233 --> 00:31:30,233
is it lets all the sun 
come in and use the

697
00:31:30,233 --> 00:31:32,800
inside of the surface of the 
leaves for Photosynthesis,

698
00:31:33,833 --> 00:31:35,566
Amanda: If you will real close 
to when you can put

699
00:31:35,566 --> 00:31:37,166
your finger up and see 
that It's somewhat

700
00:31:37,166 --> 00:31:39,800
translucent, you can 
see through that is

701
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:45,266
just fascinating. 
and now these are the

702
00:31:45,266 --> 00:31:47,266
different ways that 
times of year that they

703
00:31:47,266 --> 00:31:50,366
flower, depending on 
where they originate.

704
00:31:50,366 --> 00:31:53,200
>>Correct.<< So this one is 
really strange, let's

705
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,333
talk about that. 
Holly: These are actually

706
00:31:55,333 --> 00:32:00,433
from South Africa. 
and normally, any of our

707
00:32:00,433 --> 00:32:02,800
house plants, they will 
have a dormancy period

708
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,133
during the winter. 
but these guys never forget

709
00:32:06,133 --> 00:32:09,666
that they're from 
South Africa. So I was

710
00:32:09,666 --> 00:32:13,733
really lucky to have 
this have a flower and

711
00:32:13,733 --> 00:32:16,633
this time, normally it 
would be in the fall.

712
00:32:16,633 --> 00:32:19,033
and I have to make sure 
that during the summer, I don't

713
00:32:19,033 --> 00:32:20,800
water them very much. Because 
right now they're sleeping.

714
00:32:22,233 --> 00:32:25,500
Amanda: Yes. Isn't 
that something just remarkable.

715
00:32:25,500 --> 00:32:31,500
So now these kind of look like 
the color of them is?

716
00:32:31,500 --> 00:32:33,666
Seems like a succulent color. 
and is there

717
00:32:33,666 --> 00:32:36,166
a reason that that 
seems so familiar to us?

718
00:32:37,133 --> 00:32:40,166
Holly: I think that these were 
probably whenever we

719
00:32:40,166 --> 00:32:42,666
thought succulents 10 15 
years ago, these are

720
00:32:42,666 --> 00:32:45,833
the ones that we saw in 
the stores and they've

721
00:32:45,833 --> 00:32:49,000
varied so much now. 
But these all have a coating.

722
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,033
It's like a 
wax coating.

723
00:32:51,033 --> 00:32:54,966
It's called Farina. 
It protects from the sun.

724
00:32:54,966 --> 00:32:59,400
and all of these have that

725
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,400
there's a couple 
of types of sedum,

726
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,100
and these are echeveria. 
Here, the echeveria

727
00:33:06,100 --> 00:33:09,300
and the sedum, they all 
do very well in

728
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:12,100
propagating by leaves. 
So if a leaf were to

729
00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:16,900
fall off, like this one 
did, oh, then it grows roots.

730
00:33:16,900 --> 00:33:20,466
and then it'll 
grow a plant.

731
00:33:20,466 --> 00:33:23,466
So all you have to do 
is set it on the soil,

732
00:33:23,466 --> 00:33:25,200
and it will just grow. and you 
don't even need to

733
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,633
water it until the leaf 
is completely dried up

734
00:33:27,633 --> 00:33:29,666
because it has everything 
it needs in that leaf.

735
00:33:30,466 --> 00:33:33,766
Amanda: Gracious goodness, what 
incredible plants.

736
00:33:33,766 --> 00:33:36,333
You know, we think of them 
just being so much full

737
00:33:36,333 --> 00:33:39,233
sun, but you're saying 
that because of where

738
00:33:39,233 --> 00:33:43,166
they are. They often 
there's very little

739
00:33:43,166 --> 00:33:44,900
moisture in the soil. 
So there's not much

740
00:33:44,900 --> 00:33:47,000
going around them. 
Right, and so they

741
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,066
don't get shaded from 
anything nearby.

742
00:33:49,066 --> 00:33:50,466
So that's why they have 
to come up with these

743
00:33:50,466 --> 00:33:52,933
ideas of cut 
down on sun.

744
00:33:52,933 --> 00:33:55,066
Holly: Exactly. I feel like 
every one of them has a

745
00:33:55,066 --> 00:33:58,566
different character. 
and I brought these two

746
00:33:58,566 --> 00:34:01,500
because a lot of times 
when we buy from the store,

747
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:04,366
they are just like perfect, 
and you bring

748
00:34:04,366 --> 00:34:06,066
them home and maybe 
two months later,

749
00:34:06,066 --> 00:34:07,800
you're like what in the 
world is happening to

750
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,333
this and it starts to get a 
little bit Leggy maybe.

751
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:15,000
Typically I 
like to leave them as

752
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,200
they are, I want them 
to do their natural thing.

753
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,900
but during the...

754
00:34:19,900 --> 00:34:21,600
Amanda: You said the 
reason that they do

755
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,733
this is to get to reach 
for the sun.

756
00:34:26,666 --> 00:34:28,100
Holly: That's correct. So if 
they don't have enough

757
00:34:28,100 --> 00:34:31,266
sun, particularly 
during the winter,

758
00:34:31,266 --> 00:34:32,866
then they will start to do 
this and you'll have

759
00:34:32,866 --> 00:34:36,200
this happening in your 
pots in the spring.

760
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,800
So I was hoping that we 
could cut this one

761
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,566
apart so I can show 
people what to do

762
00:34:40,566 --> 00:34:43,200
whenever they get this look 
and they don't care for it.

763
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,266
Amanda: Well, let's 
play doctor >>Okay.<<

764
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,833
Holly: So this echeveria is 
called topsy turvy.

765
00:34:52,833 --> 00:34:57,033
You can seed from the 
leaves they're

766
00:34:57,033 --> 00:34:57,766
turned inside out.

767
00:34:59,100 --> 00:35:00,833
>>It's really quite lovely.<< 
It really is.

768
00:35:00,833 --> 00:35:02,300
This is one of my favorites.

769
00:35:02,633 --> 00:35:05,800
Amanda: Wouldn't that make like 
a neat Boutonniere.

770
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,066
>>It would.<< That would be so 
much fun. Okay,

771
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:12,533
Holly: So this one had grown 
out and lost,

772
00:35:12,533 --> 00:35:15,633
there were leaves all 
through here last summer.

773
00:35:15,633 --> 00:35:18,500
and it lost those leaves. 
and it started to grow

774
00:35:18,500 --> 00:35:21,066
additional plants here. 
and there's one extra

775
00:35:21,066 --> 00:35:24,266
little pup growing here. 
So what we would

776
00:35:24,266 --> 00:35:29,000
do... I need to turn 
this around.

777
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,333
and I think that's fair, 
because you just don't

778
00:35:30,333 --> 00:35:32,233
cut it. Yeah, we're 
just going to cut it.

779
00:35:34,033 --> 00:35:36,933
This part here will 
live off of the roots,

780
00:35:36,933 --> 00:35:40,500
and it's stored 
reserves.

781
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:43,400
It will be 
perfectly fine.

782
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,266
It'll start growing more 
of these right on the end.

783
00:35:45,266 --> 00:35:48,433
Oh, okay. From 
the cut end.

784
00:35:48,433 --> 00:35:52,866
>>Right. Okay, right.<< Then 
this little guy,

785
00:35:52,866 --> 00:35:57,066
I don't want to disturb 
him. So I'm just going

786
00:35:57,066 --> 00:35:59,366
to leave some of that 
stem on there for him.

787
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,800
and then cut him, I'm 
gonna let you hold on

788
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:09,466
to him. Okay, so he 
will need to sit on the

789
00:36:09,466 --> 00:36:13,333
ground for about three 
or four days for it to

790
00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:16,300
callus over. and then 
you can just stick it

791
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:19,666
in the ground a little 
bit. and he'll start growing.

792
00:36:19,666 --> 00:36:22,700
Amanda: Now, is she going to 
grow from the end here?

793
00:36:22,700 --> 00:36:24,800
Or is this going to 
continue to grow? >>Both.<<

794
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:25,600
So you'll have... Okay,

795
00:36:26,100 --> 00:36:29,166
Holly: Whichever end you put

796
00:36:29,166 --> 00:36:30,866
into the dirt is 
where the roots are

797
00:36:30,866 --> 00:36:33,266
going to grow. 
Okay. All right. and

798
00:36:33,266 --> 00:36:35,966
then this is the same, 
you would leave it on

799
00:36:35,966 --> 00:36:38,666
top of the dirt for a 
little while and then

800
00:36:38,666 --> 00:36:41,866
just place it in. 
You have a beautiful

801
00:36:41,866 --> 00:36:42,833
look and plant again.

802
00:36:43,500 --> 00:36:46,200
Amanda: Isn't that something? 
Now, you said that you

803
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,300
enjoy mixing them at 
your shop and having

804
00:36:50,300 --> 00:36:51,400
different types 
together?

805
00:36:51,666 --> 00:36:55,000
Holly: I do? I do. but I 
always try to make sure

806
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,733
that I'm doing...

807
00:36:57,233 --> 00:36:59,066
Amanda: Similar cultural 
requirements.

808
00:36:59,066 --> 00:37:03,600
Holly: Exactly. So a 
lot of times I do just

809
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,966
a haworthia types of 
arrangements. and there

810
00:37:07,966 --> 00:37:09,966
are so many types of haworthia. 
This is my favorite

811
00:37:09,966 --> 00:37:11,800
for terrarium is 
closed to our areas.

812
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:17,366
and then 
I'll also take more of

813
00:37:17,366 --> 00:37:21,066
this type here and have 
those in a single

814
00:37:21,066 --> 00:37:23,666
type of arrangement. Of 
course, cacti would go

815
00:37:23,666 --> 00:37:24,733
in a different Yeah.

816
00:37:25,100 --> 00:37:29,133
Amanda: And then sometimes you 
have workshops and you

817
00:37:29,133 --> 00:37:33,200
do crazy things like I 
have some old shoes

818
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:37,633
that have a much higher 
heel... Tell me some of

819
00:37:37,633 --> 00:37:39,300
the fun things to do sometimes 
and you have workshops,

820
00:37:39,900 --> 00:37:43,133
Holly: We actually invite our 
customers to bring in

821
00:37:43,133 --> 00:37:46,366
their old high heeled 
shoes, wear anymore,

822
00:37:46,366 --> 00:37:49,133
we drill holes in the 
bottom so that it has

823
00:37:49,133 --> 00:37:52,100
some sort of drainage. 
and we make little mini gardens.

824
00:37:52,100 --> 00:37:55,100
So It's just started little.

825
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:57,966
Amanda: Yeah. and other 
things as well. Yeah.

826
00:37:57,966 --> 00:38:00,966
and all of these do have 
good drainage. >>Yes.<<

827
00:38:00,966 --> 00:38:04,200
and the soil is also very 
porous. So yes, yeah, yeah.

828
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,333
Now do you fertilize 
them ever?

829
00:38:06,966 --> 00:38:11,300
Holly: I do when it is 
their growing season,

830
00:38:11,300 --> 00:38:13,733
>>Which is like the 
fellows from South Africa

831
00:38:13,733 --> 00:38:16,633
have a different season?<< 
Yeah.

832
00:38:16,633 --> 00:38:18,833
I'll fertilize them 
about once a month.

833
00:38:18,833 --> 00:38:22,066
Amanda: Okay and then how much 
light do they need?

834
00:38:22,966 --> 00:38:25,966
Holly: Most of them need a 
good deal of light,

835
00:38:25,966 --> 00:38:28,400
like direct sunlight so 
that they don't grow

836
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:34,700
Leggy like... but 
they don't necessarily.

837
00:38:34,700 --> 00:38:36,800
They don't care if 
they're leggy, right.

838
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:41,033
So they can grow in 
like filtered light

839
00:38:41,033 --> 00:38:44,000
next to a window. 
They're fine.

840
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,800
Amanda: Well, I think that they 
don't need a whole lot

841
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,800
of water either. 
Even around wintertime.

842
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,000
and I'm not picky about 
sunlight. Don't need a

843
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,200
whole lot of fertilizer. 
Sounds perfect.

844
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,633
That sounds like 
my kind of plant.

845
00:38:59,233 --> 00:39:03,033
>>Yes.<< and so if people 
want to know and you

846
00:39:03,033 --> 00:39:05,400
have your location is 
where?

847
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,900
Holly: It's at the 
Pee Dee state farmers market.

848
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:09,433
I have a permanent booth there.

849
00:39:10,033 --> 00:39:12,933
Amanda: If people want to 
find out more about it,

850
00:39:12,933 --> 00:39:15,900
your name again is? 
>>Growing Hobby.<<

851
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,633
Holly: We have we have a 
Facebook page. All right.

852
00:39:18,633 --> 00:39:22,033
Okay. and if you 
just Google "Growing Hobby

853
00:39:22,033 --> 00:39:24,233
in Florence", you 
can just give me a call.

854
00:39:24,233 --> 00:39:26,400
Amanda: Okay. and you 
put pictures there a

855
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:27,733
fun things y'all 
do as well.

856
00:39:27,733 --> 00:39:29,433
>>Oh, yes, absolutely.<< 
Well, I can tell

857
00:39:29,433 --> 00:39:31,000
that you're having a 
good time with this.

858
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,666
and I want to 
thank you for sharing

859
00:39:32,666 --> 00:39:35,000
this fascinating 
information with our

860
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,266
viewers today. 
Holly: Well, thank you.

861
00:39:36,266 --> 00:39:37,466
I appreciate it.

862
00:39:42,933 --> 00:39:45,366
Amanda: Holly is always having 
all these fun programs

863
00:39:45,366 --> 00:39:47,633
that you can go over and do. 
Terasa we need to go

864
00:39:47,633 --> 00:39:50,500
and do one of those 
programs. I think we

865
00:39:50,500 --> 00:39:52,433
have real good time, 
don't you? >>Yes.<< Yeah,

866
00:39:52,433 --> 00:39:54,833
maybe she'll come back 
soon. I hope so. Well,

867
00:39:54,833 --> 00:39:56,700
as you know, I don't 
have anything in my

868
00:39:56,700 --> 00:40:00,000
yard anymore except a 
lot of weeds and but

869
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,033
Thank goodness for it 
my friend Ann Nulty

870
00:40:02,033 --> 00:40:04,100
I went out there and 
wait she had these

871
00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:07,333
Amaryllis that are I 
don't know Amaryllis on

872
00:40:07,333 --> 00:40:09,800
steroids is all I can 
say I mean and I had to

873
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,200
pull one of these 
blooms off because it

874
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,733
kind of broken in the 
car over here and

875
00:40:13,733 --> 00:40:16,233
then also had some 
Solomon's... you know,

876
00:40:16,233 --> 00:40:18,600
variegated Solomon's 
seal which I believe is

877
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,933
a Japanese one? Is that 
do you know or is it

878
00:40:21,933 --> 00:40:24,366
just anyway but it does 
you say it does real well.

879
00:40:24,366 --> 00:40:26,466
Mine doesn't 
multiply too much but

880
00:40:26,466 --> 00:40:27,733
she said it does. Well,

881
00:40:28,100 --> 00:40:29,966
Bill>>: Yeah absolutely 
in a sort of

882
00:40:29,966 --> 00:40:34,633
semi wet shade. Morning 
Sun dappled sun situation.

883
00:40:34,633 --> 00:40:39,600
Long arching 
branches and a

884
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,166
Amanda: I think mine's in too 
much shade but um,

885
00:40:41,166 --> 00:40:43,266
maybe I will try to 
spend some time and

886
00:40:43,266 --> 00:40:44,733
move it out a little 
bit because it sure is

887
00:40:44,733 --> 00:40:45,700
pretty isn't it?

888
00:40:45,700 --> 00:40:46,800
Bill>>: I don't think 
It's pure shade a

889
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:48,166
little bit of sun would 
probably help it out.

890
00:40:48,166 --> 00:40:49,966
Amanda: Okay, well I 
will try that but it is

891
00:40:49,966 --> 00:40:53,600
just a beautiful 
filler and when if you

892
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,833
cut it, it just it 
lasted a vase for a

893
00:40:56,833 --> 00:40:59,566
long time, which is 
always nice. I think we

894
00:40:59,566 --> 00:41:04,866
pretty roses wouldn't it. 
Okay, well Bill of the

895
00:41:04,866 --> 00:41:06,800
many wonderful things 
you have at the nursery.

896
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,033
What are you going 
to show to us next?

897
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,200
Bill>>: We've got a buddleia 
and this is a butterfly

898
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,200
bush buddleia. This one is 
called Pugster Periwinkle

899
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:19,700
>>A peculiar name.<< 
Pugster and it

900
00:41:19,700 --> 00:41:23,066
kind of envisioned that 
It's a shorter one.

901
00:41:23,066 --> 00:41:24,800
You know, we've had 
butterfly bushes for a

902
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,666
long time, and they 
tend to get big,

903
00:41:29,666 --> 00:41:35,500
8-9-10 feet or more and a 
bit straggly for lack

904
00:41:35,500 --> 00:41:39,366
of a better term. 
The Black Knight is one

905
00:41:39,366 --> 00:41:40,866
that's been around 
forever with a dark

906
00:41:40,866 --> 00:41:43,433
purple bloom. The bloom 
is beautiful, but the

907
00:41:43,433 --> 00:41:47,600
plant not always that 
attractive, very good

908
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,700
for butterflies. 
But this is going to be a

909
00:41:50,700 --> 00:41:53,900
short like two to three 
feet by two to three

910
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:58,200
feet wide, with full 
size blooms on it.

911
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,366
and it will attract 
butterflies, as its

912
00:42:01,366 --> 00:42:03,900
name implies, but bees 
and your other

913
00:42:03,900 --> 00:42:07,533
pollinators will come 
to this also. So this

914
00:42:07,533 --> 00:42:10,533
is a great purple or 
beautiful color.

915
00:42:10,533 --> 00:42:15,633
It does come in a white and a 
pink also in this same size,

916
00:42:15,633 --> 00:42:20,200
but It's a little 
more manageable so

917
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,166
you can get that. 
Those blooms for those

918
00:42:23,166 --> 00:42:24,966
pollinators that you 
want to come into your

919
00:42:24,966 --> 00:42:29,700
garden without this 
huge shrub. Well, a

920
00:42:29,700 --> 00:42:31,866
Amanda: Well, a lot of us 
have smaller yards now.

921
00:42:31,866 --> 00:42:33,366
Susie, I think you and 
I are going to have a

922
00:42:33,366 --> 00:42:35,666
big yard this too much 
for us forever.

923
00:42:35,666 --> 00:42:37,233
But a lot of people have 
smaller yards and

924
00:42:37,233 --> 00:42:39,366
isn't it wonderful that 
the nursery traders is

925
00:42:39,366 --> 00:42:40,333
responding to that.

926
00:42:41,133 --> 00:42:42,766
Suzanne: I think that 
one's beautiful too.

927
00:42:42,766 --> 00:42:46,600
Amanda: It is pretty Yeah. Oh, 
all righty. Full sun?

928
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,733
Bill>>: Full sun and 
no real problems.

929
00:42:49,733 --> 00:42:50,900
He's tough as nails.

930
00:42:50,900 --> 00:42:53,233
Amanda: Gosh. Okay, 
and comes back reliably

931
00:42:53,233 --> 00:42:55,266
year after year 
reliably. Yes. Well,

932
00:42:55,266 --> 00:42:56,633
thank you so much for 
bringing they're

933
00:42:56,633 --> 00:43:01,333
sharing it with us. We 
appreciate it. Okay, Terasa?

934
00:43:01,333 --> 00:43:03,800
Terasa: Let's see if we can 
help Alma who writes in

935
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,133
from Myrtle Beach.

936
00:43:12,533 --> 00:43:13,800
What should we do?

937
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,666
Amanda: Oh my goodness. Well, 
Campbell, what do you

938
00:43:16,666 --> 00:43:17,433
think's going on with this?

939
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,000
Campbell: A lace bug. So usually

940
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,400
they'll come in the 
spring March full sun

941
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,433
is usually where 
they're worse. It does

942
00:43:26,433 --> 00:43:27,933
look like a speckling. 
It's almost like a

943
00:43:27,933 --> 00:43:31,266
small variegation but 
ugly variegation.

944
00:43:31,266 --> 00:43:33,200
So It's a little insect and 
when they hatch out the

945
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,866
nymphs and eat them up 
and then basically

946
00:43:36,866 --> 00:43:38,733
sucking some of the 
juices and stuff out.

947
00:43:38,733 --> 00:43:40,966
Amanda: Oh, and that's 
why it gets speckly.

948
00:43:40,966 --> 00:43:43,000
Campbell: Speckly on there 
and it can be a problem and

949
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,366
this year actually was a lot 
worse than normal and

950
00:43:46,366 --> 00:43:49,833
like typical Azaleas 
you can treat them as

951
00:43:49,833 --> 00:43:52,066
when It's cooler weather. 
I like to use a

952
00:43:52,066 --> 00:43:54,133
horticultural oil and 
you just soak the plant

953
00:43:54,133 --> 00:43:56,466
with a horticultural oil. 
You mix it up in a

954
00:43:56,466 --> 00:43:58,700
sprayer and spray it 
down till It's dripping and

955
00:43:58,700 --> 00:44:01,366
repeat it 10 to 14 days 
usually you can get rid

956
00:44:01,366 --> 00:44:03,966
of them that way. 
If It's in the spring and

957
00:44:03,966 --> 00:44:08,233
it happens so hot sun 
probably could get get

958
00:44:08,233 --> 00:44:10,733
rid of those lace 
bugs, prune them back

959
00:44:10,733 --> 00:44:12,700
and they'll flush back 
out just make sure you

960
00:44:12,700 --> 00:44:14,900
get them pruned back 
before July when

961
00:44:14,900 --> 00:44:17,000
they're putting out 
their new buds and then

962
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,800
then they can 
bloom again so.

963
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,733
Amanda: I've always heard that 
you need to prune your Azaleas

964
00:44:20,733 --> 00:44:23,533
before the Fourth of July. 
If you want to have

965
00:44:23,533 --> 00:44:26,000
the new growth 
have flowers that

966
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,466
exists right before 
July so we always say

967
00:44:28,466 --> 00:44:30,766
after masters from 
Augusta everything

968
00:44:30,766 --> 00:44:34,333
kind of roots around the 
masters. Famous for

969
00:44:34,333 --> 00:44:37,666
having a lot of Azaleas 
wait till after they bloom.

970
00:44:37,666 --> 00:44:39,333
Amanda: I think a lot of people 
in the country have

971
00:44:39,333 --> 00:44:46,166
heard of the Masters. 
To do with Golf you said

972
00:44:46,166 --> 00:44:47,933
It's pretty exciting 
with what's going on down there.

973
00:44:47,933 --> 00:44:50,533
Campbell: It really is It's kind 
of in It's a for

974
00:44:50,533 --> 00:44:52,366
of somebody that likes 
botanical things

975
00:44:52,366 --> 00:44:54,433
horticulture stuff, you 
know, not just the

976
00:44:54,433 --> 00:44:57,500
sport of it. It's the 
the beauty of the

977
00:44:57,500 --> 00:45:00,166
course and the plants 
that go along with it.

978
00:45:00,166 --> 00:45:02,800
My kids call me a tree 
nerd and a plant nerd

979
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,166
so they have fun making 
fun of that.

980
00:45:04,166 --> 00:45:05,666
Suzanne: Campbell 
they might not know

981
00:45:05,666 --> 00:45:08,433
this but tell them how 
about holes are named after

982
00:45:08,433 --> 00:45:11,733
Campbell: there's a each hole 
has a has a is named

983
00:45:11,733 --> 00:45:14,700
after a plant. 
The original grounds of

984
00:45:14,700 --> 00:45:17,900
Augusta National was a nursery. 
So they kind of

985
00:45:17,900 --> 00:45:20,266
coincided the 
nursery when it moved

986
00:45:20,266 --> 00:45:23,333
over and was bought out 
to to match up with

987
00:45:23,333 --> 00:45:24,866
some of the nursery 
things so maybe where

988
00:45:24,866 --> 00:45:27,733
the row was supposed to 
be was tea olive is

989
00:45:27,733 --> 00:45:30,266
the first hole and then 
you know, there's azaleas

990
00:45:30,266 --> 00:45:33,866
on over there on Amen 
corner. So It's really

991
00:45:33,866 --> 00:45:35,700
kind of a neat 
correlation with it so.

992
00:45:36,633 --> 00:45:40,066
Amanda: And you said they are 
expert horticulturist.

993
00:45:40,300 --> 00:45:42,966
Campbell: They really do a 
great job there and to

994
00:45:42,966 --> 00:45:45,133
get fun to get to hear 
the history about

995
00:45:45,133 --> 00:45:49,366
Magnolia lane and 
the people that planted

996
00:45:49,366 --> 00:45:50,633
was the place who

997
00:45:50,633 --> 00:45:51,600
Suzanne: We're talking 
about clear.

998
00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:55,666
Campbell: Also 
did the Augusta

999
00:45:55,666 --> 00:45:58,333
National Magnolia Lane. 
So there's still a lot

1000
00:45:58,333 --> 00:46:00,866
of fun history, especially when 
people enjoy plants.

1001
00:46:01,533 --> 00:46:03,433
Amanda: So much fun that you've 
that you share that

1002
00:46:03,433 --> 00:46:06,266
with us. We appreciate 
it. Okay, thank you got

1003
00:46:06,266 --> 00:46:08,600
to show and tell over 
by Terasa.

1004
00:46:08,933 --> 00:46:12,033
Bill>>: We've got a 
hydrangea, Miss Saori.

1005
00:46:12,033 --> 00:46:15,000
the reason this 
hydrangea stands out

1006
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,300
would be the leaves. 
We look at those bronze

1007
00:46:18,300 --> 00:46:22,133
sort of reddish leaves. 
What a great backdrop

1008
00:46:22,133 --> 00:46:24,700
for that pink, the white 
flower with the pink edges.

1009
00:46:24,700 --> 00:46:29,766
I have not seen 
this very often.

1010
00:46:29,766 --> 00:46:32,866
It is a dwarf so It's 
going to be topping out

1011
00:46:32,866 --> 00:46:35,800
at maybe three by three. 
So a little bit shorter,

1012
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,433
great looking 
leaves beautiful blooms.

1013
00:46:39,433 --> 00:46:43,600
It's a really 
unique showstopper of a

1014
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:48,700
hydrangea and how do 
you spell it? S A O R I

1015
00:46:48,700 --> 00:46:51,066
Amanda: S A O R I. I'm 
sorry. It was just

1016
00:46:51,066 --> 00:46:54,066
beautiful. and um, the 
blooms, I'm sure it'd

1017
00:46:54,066 --> 00:46:56,033
be there. Just 
everybody likes to cut

1018
00:46:56,266 --> 00:46:57,933
beautiful hydrangeas and 
bring them inside.

1019
00:46:57,933 --> 00:46:59,000
Absolutely.

1020
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Bill>>: They're just 
starting to pop out. So

1021
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,966
those will be nice 
foreheads but they're

1022
00:47:01,966 --> 00:47:04,500
just starting to 
peek out and when this

1023
00:47:04,500 --> 00:47:07,433
is in full bloom, It's 
a it'll make your

1024
00:47:07,433 --> 00:47:08,433
neighbor stop.

1025
00:47:08,433 --> 00:47:11,033
Amanda: Now will it 
like filtered light.

1026
00:47:11,933 --> 00:47:14,666
Bill>>: Morning Sun is 
really good.

1027
00:47:14,666 --> 00:47:17,266
If you could protect it from 
some of that afternoon.

1028
00:47:19,233 --> 00:47:22,933
They have big, juicy 
leaves and they're

1029
00:47:22,933 --> 00:47:24,766
moving a lot of water 
and if they're in full

1030
00:47:24,766 --> 00:47:27,133
sun they can't 
quite keep up.

1031
00:47:27,133 --> 00:47:30,266
I had one of my 
hydrangeas in too

1032
00:47:30,266 --> 00:47:32,266
much sun and every day 
when I would come home

1033
00:47:32,266 --> 00:47:34,600
from work, it'd be 
wilted. You get up in

1034
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,600
the morning and the 
leaves are back up.

1035
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,166
Amanda: But better just to put 
it in the right to put it

1036
00:47:39,166 --> 00:47:40,500
in the right spot. 
>>Correct.<<

1037
00:47:40,500 --> 00:47:41,700
Thank you for 
sharing that with us.

1038
00:47:41,700 --> 00:47:46,500
We really appreciate it. 
Okay, Terasa, who's next?

1039
00:47:46,766 --> 00:47:49,733
Terasa: Greta from Johnsonville 
is next people are

1040
00:47:49,733 --> 00:47:51,800
always looking for 
advice and help and

1041
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:53,266
inspiration. Greta says:

1042
00:48:02,300 --> 00:48:05,233
Amanda: Goodness, um, well 
Suzanne, what

1043
00:48:05,233 --> 00:48:06,066
would you recommend?

1044
00:48:06,733 --> 00:48:08,133
Suzanne: We call 
these some of the

1045
00:48:08,133 --> 00:48:10,200
smaller trees or 
under story trees in

1046
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,700
other words they want under 
the top of the canopy.

1047
00:48:12,700 --> 00:48:15,233
Under pine trees 
under oak trees.

1048
00:48:15,233 --> 00:48:18,400
So to maybe 
one come to mind the

1049
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,000
red bud and dogwood 
Yes. and they both have

1050
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,466
small trees that like to grow 
and we have a red bud here.

1051
00:48:25,466 --> 00:48:31,233
and this one is 
called Rising Sun

1052
00:48:31,233 --> 00:48:34,800
No... This is called 
flame thrower.

1053
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:39,066
Because you can see the 
different colors the

1054
00:48:39,066 --> 00:48:41,300
wonderful thing about 
is the heart shaped

1055
00:48:41,300 --> 00:48:43,766
leaves on this as you know, 
these heart shaped

1056
00:48:43,766 --> 00:48:45,666
leaves are beautiful. 
So we have

1057
00:48:45,666 --> 00:48:47,633
the regular one that 
you know grows out in our

1058
00:48:47,633 --> 00:48:49,766
woods and so they come 
up with some really

1059
00:48:49,766 --> 00:48:52,366
interesting ones forest 
pansy is one that

1060
00:48:52,366 --> 00:48:54,366
we've seen the most of. 
It's a purple is leaf.

1061
00:48:54,666 --> 00:48:55,700
Amanda: Really purple too.

1062
00:48:55,700 --> 00:48:58,066
Suzanne: It's really, 
I mean almost like a

1063
00:48:58,066 --> 00:49:01,366
little dark place it 
looks really well.

1064
00:49:01,366 --> 00:49:03,666
Then we have one that's a 
yellow one called

1065
00:49:03,666 --> 00:49:05,933
rising sun it almost looks like 
what's wrong with you?

1066
00:49:05,933 --> 00:49:09,133
But It's 
really yellow.

1067
00:49:09,133 --> 00:49:11,800
Like this one is flame thrower. 
So we have some

1068
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,100
new varieties that 
you can get out there

1069
00:49:14,100 --> 00:49:16,566
or you can you know, 
get the old one.

1070
00:49:16,566 --> 00:49:20,100
These are another one 
that we don't, that I

1071
00:49:20,100 --> 00:49:23,833
really like is fringe trees. 
and I liked the

1072
00:49:23,833 --> 00:49:26,800
American fringe tree 
and the Asian Chinese

1073
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:30,033
fringe tree. and to me 
This is a

1074
00:49:30,033 --> 00:49:33,533
wonderful small tree. 
So that would be you know.

1075
00:49:33,533 --> 00:49:35,200
Amanda: Sometimes called 
grand fathers gray beard.

1076
00:49:38,266 --> 00:49:40,100
Suzanne: I have a 
huge one in you know,

1077
00:49:40,100 --> 00:49:42,633
in my yard. That's the 
native one and It's

1078
00:49:42,633 --> 00:49:44,800
absolutely beautiful. 
but I'm also very

1079
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:49,733
partial to the foreign 
one okay. >>It's showier.<<

1080
00:49:49,733 --> 00:49:53,300
Yeah, it is a lot showier. 
Yeah, retusus and

1081
00:49:53,300 --> 00:49:56,366
they planted them in 
downtown Augusta,

1082
00:49:56,733 --> 00:49:58,800
and you know in different 
places in North Augusta

1083
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,000
and they are great. 
little street trees

1084
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:02,833
Believe it or not, 
Amanda: I think the

1085
00:50:02,833 --> 00:50:05,233
Asian one can 
take more sun. Yeah,

1086
00:50:05,233 --> 00:50:06,600
It's more adaptable.

1087
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,466
Suzanne: Yeah, and 
It's the other ones get

1088
00:50:08,466 --> 00:50:11,866
kind of unkempt. You know, 
the Asian one is a lot.

1089
00:50:11,866 --> 00:50:14,133
It also have a different 
trunk structure.

1090
00:50:14,133 --> 00:50:15,933
It's very beautiful 
in the wintertime.

1091
00:50:15,933 --> 00:50:19,200
So yeah, so 
that's three of my good

1092
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:20,900
choices for small tree.

1093
00:50:21,166 --> 00:50:24,233
Terasa: I have a 
rising sun in my yard.

1094
00:50:24,233 --> 00:50:25,700
It's really beautiful. 
and you're right

1095
00:50:25,700 --> 00:50:26,900
sometimes you look at 
the leaves, you're

1096
00:50:26,900 --> 00:50:29,500
like, is it okay what 
Yes, that's just the

1097
00:50:29,500 --> 00:50:31,666
colors supposed to be 
but speaking of colors

1098
00:50:31,666 --> 00:50:34,000
of leaves, you'll see 
like the forest pansy

1099
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,833
being so purple and so 
the pigments in the

1100
00:50:37,833 --> 00:50:39,700
leaves are altered. So 
we're seeing more of

1101
00:50:39,700 --> 00:50:42,966
anthocyanins the purple 
colors, rather than

1102
00:50:42,966 --> 00:50:45,633
seeing the green 
chlorophyll.

1103
00:50:45,633 --> 00:50:48,800
So if you're considering 
wildlife value, some of

1104
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,066
the things that we do 
when we change plants

1105
00:50:51,066 --> 00:50:53,933
affects its attractiveness 
to wildlife.

1106
00:50:53,933 --> 00:50:56,800
So if we make 
something that doesn't

1107
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,133
produce seeds and our 
birds or depending on

1108
00:50:59,133 --> 00:51:01,366
the seeds, then that could 
be a negative impact.

1109
00:51:01,366 --> 00:51:03,866
Sometimes that 
we want really showy

1110
00:51:03,866 --> 00:51:06,266
flowers and then our 
pollinators are not

1111
00:51:06,266 --> 00:51:08,100
able to access the pollen 
and nectar resources.

1112
00:51:08,100 --> 00:51:10,366
and then like the 
pigments in

1113
00:51:10,366 --> 00:51:11,966
the leaves, it might 
make them less

1114
00:51:11,966 --> 00:51:14,633
palatable for the caterpillars 
that feed on them.

1115
00:51:14,633 --> 00:51:16,433
and of course, 
we know we need caterpillars

1116
00:51:16,433 --> 00:51:18,433
to feed baby birds. 
So I'm not saying

1117
00:51:18,433 --> 00:51:20,866
you know, don't 
utilize them, but just

1118
00:51:20,866 --> 00:51:23,700
things to think about 
when you're selecting plants.

1119
00:51:24,100 --> 00:51:26,000
Amanda: I always think of red 
buds as you said,

1120
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,033
as being understory trees. 
but some of these new

1121
00:51:29,033 --> 00:51:32,000
ones I think are kind 
of designed to be out

1122
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,566
in the sun. I'm not so 
sure about that.

1123
00:51:34,566 --> 00:51:37,166
But in the city of Columbia, 
on divine street,

1124
00:51:37,166 --> 00:51:43,466
they have sources, texts or... 
Terasa: Still canadensis

1125
00:51:43,466 --> 00:51:45,566
and I think maybe a 
variety of variety

1126
00:51:45,566 --> 00:51:46,733
Texas Canadensis.

1127
00:51:46,733 --> 00:51:49,166
Something like that. 
I called up and spoke

1128
00:51:49,166 --> 00:51:50,933
with the horticulturist 
in city of Columbia and

1129
00:51:50,933 --> 00:51:53,433
she said that one 
takes full sun and that

1130
00:51:53,433 --> 00:51:56,666
It's much more compact. 
and Terasa was the

1131
00:51:56,666 --> 00:51:59,166
fancy name for when the 
flowers and leaves come

1132
00:51:59,166 --> 00:52:01,033
out of the stems and 
not just the ends of

1133
00:52:01,033 --> 00:52:01,866
little branches.

1134
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:03,966
Terasa: I have a hard time 
saying it. It's like

1135
00:52:03,966 --> 00:52:06,500
cauliflower, ... or 
something. Yeah.

1136
00:52:07,533 --> 00:52:10,166
Amanda: That have also Red bud 
Suzette, if you can

1137
00:52:10,166 --> 00:52:11,933
show it on that one. 
Every time there's a

1138
00:52:11,933 --> 00:52:14,466
node red buds take a 
little branch,

1139
00:52:14,466 --> 00:52:16,866
they go in a different 
direction slightly.

1140
00:52:16,866 --> 00:52:18,533
So for people like me who 
like to make flower

1141
00:52:18,533 --> 00:52:21,766
arrangements, I like to 
find them sometimes in

1142
00:52:21,766 --> 00:52:24,100
the winter or just use 
the twigs, because nobody

1143
00:52:24,100 --> 00:52:26,100
wants a straight stick. 
and there are

1144
00:52:26,100 --> 00:52:30,500
some now I think 
Terasa that are have

1145
00:52:30,500 --> 00:52:34,633
been cultivated and 
continued, that are

1146
00:52:34,633 --> 00:52:36,933
really crooked. You 
know? I mean, you

1147
00:52:36,933 --> 00:52:38,200
wouldn't think you 
bought that.

1148
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,166
but I mean, It's really 
kind of dramatic.

1149
00:52:40,166 --> 00:52:43,433
Looking at this just Zig Zig 
Zig Zig Zig, some plant

1150
00:52:43,433 --> 00:52:45,533
breeders are having 
quite a field day these

1151
00:52:45,533 --> 00:52:46,300
days, aren't they?

1152
00:52:48,133 --> 00:52:50,900
Terasa: Indeed. There's just 
so many options out there.

1153
00:52:51,166 --> 00:52:54,900
Amanda: Okay, Bill, 
we've got about three minutes.

1154
00:52:54,900 --> 00:52:57,366
If you got something 
that's got so many.

1155
00:52:57,366 --> 00:52:58,666
I don't know if we 
can talk about all

1156
00:52:58,666 --> 00:53:00,433
the beautiful things 
in that in three minutes.

1157
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:05,300
Bill>>: This is a barberry 
This is called sunjoy

1158
00:53:05,300 --> 00:53:11,200
Tangelo barberry. 
and barberries in general

1159
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:16,366
are very hardy. 
Many landscapers use these

1160
00:53:16,366 --> 00:53:19,666
especially commercial 
landscapers where they

1161
00:53:19,666 --> 00:53:21,466
need a plant where they 
can just go ahead and

1162
00:53:21,466 --> 00:53:25,733
put it in and leave it 
and not have to worry

1163
00:53:25,733 --> 00:53:27,966
about it. It may not be 
under irrigation, it'll

1164
00:53:27,966 --> 00:53:33,100
be fine, full sun, hot 
sun out in the

1165
00:53:33,100 --> 00:53:35,833
middle of the islands.

1166
00:53:35,833 --> 00:53:37,166
Amanda: Also if it's a 
place where people would like

1167
00:53:37,166 --> 00:53:38,766
to walk, they're not 
going to walk through.

1168
00:53:39,566 --> 00:53:42,466
Bill>>: So the 
only downside at all

1169
00:53:42,466 --> 00:53:44,766
that I can that to 
these really would be

1170
00:53:44,766 --> 00:53:47,966
the thorns. and you 
know, it does have

1171
00:53:47,966 --> 00:53:48,866
thorns, but

1172
00:53:49,300 --> 00:53:51,366
Amanda: Then a lot of 
things. We still play

1173
00:53:51,366 --> 00:53:54,333
at power camp.

1174
00:53:54,333 --> 00:53:57,633
Bill>>: So this comes 
in this particular one,

1175
00:53:57,633 --> 00:53:59,066
the new growth is 
coming out with this

1176
00:53:59,066 --> 00:54:03,466
really amazing orangey 
red, then it turns more

1177
00:54:03,466 --> 00:54:07,133
into red, it has a 
yellow edge on it.

1178
00:54:07,133 --> 00:54:09,666
and then it turns more green. 
It'll change colors

1179
00:54:09,666 --> 00:54:12,133
throughout the year. 
and this is just one of them.

1180
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,366
Amanda: Green is such 
a fresh vibrant green.

1181
00:54:15,366 --> 00:54:18,500
Bill>>: Chartreuse, 
green. and this

1182
00:54:18,500 --> 00:54:21,633
particular the Barbary 
family, there's

1183
00:54:21,633 --> 00:54:24,833
burgundy ones, there's 
lime green ones,

1184
00:54:24,833 --> 00:54:28,800
there's ones that have 
a real colomer shape to them.

1185
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:33,033
Ones that stay very, 
very low. It's a pretty

1186
00:54:33,033 --> 00:54:37,000
big family of plants 
that can just handle

1187
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:38,866
life on their own 
without having to

1188
00:54:38,866 --> 00:54:40,000
really worry about it.

1189
00:54:40,300 --> 00:54:41,866
Amanda: It seems to me 
that perhaps at one

1190
00:54:41,866 --> 00:54:44,466
time did they set seeds 
and they kind of spread

1191
00:54:44,466 --> 00:54:46,533
or is that something 
that I'm remembering wrong?

1192
00:54:46,533 --> 00:54:47,900
Suzanne, do you remember?

1193
00:54:48,366 --> 00:54:50,433
Suzanne: I know I 
don't remember that.

1194
00:54:51,866 --> 00:54:55,233
Amanda: But um, at any 
rate, this one looks

1195
00:54:55,233 --> 00:54:57,100
like It's maybe going 
to stay reasonable size.

1196
00:54:57,100 --> 00:54:58,200
What do you think?

1197
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,766
Bill>>: Yes, this will be 
in that two foot

1198
00:55:00,766 --> 00:55:05,133
range but some used to be big. 
There are really big ones.

1199
00:55:05,133 --> 00:55:07,300
One of my favorites.

1200
00:55:07,300 --> 00:55:10,066
When I worked at the zoo they 
used to use one called

1201
00:55:10,066 --> 00:55:13,433
Julienne, which have 
ever cut. Yes,

1202
00:55:13,833 --> 00:55:16,566
Julianne. This one was 
called Julianne and it

1203
00:55:16,566 --> 00:55:20,700
had two inch long thorns 
on it. Thank y'all so much.

1204
00:55:20,700 --> 00:55:22,333
and thank y'all 
for being with us.

1205
00:55:22,333 --> 00:55:23,400
We'll see you next week.
