Yellow in the Garden | Flowers & Foliage

<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting from Sunny Studio A Here at proven Winter's color
<v Speaker 1>Choy shrubs. It's time for the Gardening Simplified Show with
<v Speaker 1>Stacy Hervella me Rick weisst and our engineer and producer
<v Speaker 1>Adrianna Robinson. Today we talk about the color yellow. Yellow
<v Speaker 1>is a color between green and orange on the spectrum
<v Speaker 1>of light. No wonder we like it. Orange is exciting
<v Speaker 1>and well we all know how we feel about green
<v Speaker 1>and the color yellow likes to use descriptive words like lemon, canary, banana, gold, mustard, sunflower, daffodil.
<v Speaker 1>There's over one hundred shades of yellow. It's one of
<v Speaker 1>the most luminous colors, if not the most luminous color
<v Speaker 1>in the light spectrum. And of course it's all around
<v Speaker 1>us in our lives, from yellow taxi cabs to the
<v Speaker 1>smile emoji, to bananas, yellow cards in soccer. Then you're
<v Speaker 1>in trouble to a memory I have of my childhood,
<v Speaker 1>and that is the Yellow Pages and using it as
<v Speaker 1>a doorstop at home. And who doesn't have somebody in
<v Speaker 1>their life or multiple people in their life where when
<v Speaker 1>you pick up the phone and you call them, they
<v Speaker 1>invariably always answer.
<v Speaker 2>It yellow Adriana does that. I mean, not that we
<v Speaker 2>talk on the phone, but if I come over and
<v Speaker 2>I'm like hey, Adrianas will be like yellow. So yeah,
<v Speaker 2>that's Adriana might be that person in my life.
<v Speaker 1>That's fantastic and nothing wrong with it. It's great yellow.
<v Speaker 1>And you know those are the people also who are
<v Speaker 1>going to have a tendency when you leave to say
<v Speaker 1>bye bye.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I don't know she'll attention.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, love it. Not everybody loves the color yellow. Here's
<v Speaker 1>a news flash. Yellow can be the color of sickness,
<v Speaker 1>like chlorosis in foliage.
<v Speaker 2>That's true.
<v Speaker 1>Not everybody likes variegation in foliage. And then, of course,
<v Speaker 1>if you have a bad product, we refer to it
<v Speaker 1>as a lemon because it leaves a sour taste in
<v Speaker 1>your mouth. And then you have mellow yellow the Donovan
<v Speaker 1>song from nineteen sixty six, They call me mellow yellow.
<v Speaker 1>It basically causes you to feel relaxed and chill and
<v Speaker 1>all that kind of stuff. Yellow with violet the opposite
<v Speaker 1>on the color wheel. A complementary color is the classic
<v Speaker 1>complementary color combination. I would argue yellow and violet or
<v Speaker 1>yellow and blue. But here's something for us to think
<v Speaker 1>about Stacey, and that is how effective is the color
<v Speaker 1>yellow in attracting pollinators to the landscape. I would have
<v Speaker 1>to say yellow must have a tremendous ability to attract
<v Speaker 1>pollinators to the landscape because look at sticky cards in
<v Speaker 1>insect traps, or the pheromone traps and the cards on
<v Speaker 1>Japanese beetle traps. They're always a bright yellow. So I'm
<v Speaker 1>going to think that yellow is a good color to
<v Speaker 1>pull pollinators to your landscape.
<v Speaker 2>Right about that, It certainly is yellow is Obviously there
<v Speaker 2>are a number of sort of markings on plants that
<v Speaker 2>insects and pollinators can see that we cannot. But overall,
<v Speaker 2>especially bees of all types love yellow flowers, and all
<v Speaker 2>types of bees are important pollinators. And if you think
<v Speaker 2>about or perhaps you've gone on a cross country trip
<v Speaker 2>during the summer, if you think about the North American
<v Speaker 2>native flora, especially the summer blooming stuff, tends very strongly
<v Speaker 2>toward a whole lot of yellow. And that's all about
<v Speaker 2>the insects. So that's why I have a lot of
<v Speaker 2>yellow in my garden, because I'm in it for the bugs.
<v Speaker 2>I didn't really set out for the yellow. I do
<v Speaker 2>prefer those stronger, brighter tones over like pestels and softer colors,
<v Speaker 2>And it just so turned out that my garden has
<v Speaker 2>a very significant yellow moment in the summer and I
<v Speaker 2>love it that way.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I do too. I have some pictures to share
<v Speaker 1>with our YouTube viewers of mystic illusion dahlia and that
<v Speaker 1>mellow yellow flower with the dark foliage. Wow, and the
<v Speaker 1>monarchs and the bees were swarming that thing last summer.
<v Speaker 2>You know, Mystic illusion dahlia is truly one of the
<v Speaker 2>most extraordinary plants that you can grow as a summer annual.
<v Speaker 2>When we used to do Improven Winners used to do
<v Speaker 2>the Grand Garden Show on Mackinac Island, there was always
<v Speaker 2>one of the gardens that had a bunch of Mystic
<v Speaker 2>Illusion dahlias, and it was far and away the most
<v Speaker 2>asked about plant. Honestly, I'm surprised that not every garden
<v Speaker 2>center sells them because they're just They're irresistible when you
<v Speaker 2>see them. They're so beautiful. They really are a plant
<v Speaker 2>that you have to see to believe. And I think
<v Speaker 2>they appeal to pretty much everybody.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, no question about it. And just this past
<v Speaker 1>weekend in the greenhouse. I was enjoying cultivars like Sombrero
<v Speaker 1>Poco yellow Echinasia. Wow, the yellow on that thing is unbelievable.
<v Speaker 1>Shadowland Echo the Sun and autumn frost hostas. There are
<v Speaker 1>a lot of beautiful, bright yellow hostas available on the
<v Speaker 1>market today. And then I love the going bananas, one
<v Speaker 1>of the best reblooming day lilies with fragrant lemony flowers.
<v Speaker 1>And I have to say to you, Stacy that again
<v Speaker 1>this past weekend, as people were shopping plants the globe
<v Speaker 1>Pop Japanese holly and the soft serve false cypress, people
<v Speaker 1>were drawn to those plans.
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, people love evergreens, and if you can
<v Speaker 2>make them ever yellow, they like them even better because yeah,
<v Speaker 2>they love, love, love that year round color.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So just some fantastic yellow plants there, and I
<v Speaker 1>and you know who would not love I don't know,
<v Speaker 1>maybe some people want, but for me in fall, a
<v Speaker 1>ginko tree in its full glory, bright yellow with some
<v Speaker 1>yellow chrysanthemums on a crisp autumn day, that's inspiring.
<v Speaker 2>That is. And you know in Japan, seeing ginkos turn
<v Speaker 2>yellow and drop their leaves is probably a seasonal activity,
<v Speaker 2>almost as popular as cherry blossom viewing is in the springs,
<v Speaker 2>it is very much a thing to go to parks
<v Speaker 2>that are full of ginkos and take in that amazing
<v Speaker 2>bright yellow moment that is so unique to ginko trees.
<v Speaker 1>So, Stacy, you like the color yellow, right?
<v Speaker 2>I do? Yeah?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So I decided to write a limerick just for
<v Speaker 1>you because you like the color yellow. It's a salute
<v Speaker 1>to Stacy and the color yellow. Limerick. Yellow's her sunshine
<v Speaker 1>on a cloudy day. Even though that might sound cliche,
<v Speaker 1>for Stacy, yellow's a favorite. She sits in a lawn
<v Speaker 1>chaired a savorite while she'll skillfully knit and crochet. Do
<v Speaker 1>you crochet?
<v Speaker 2>I do, yeah, okay, mostly knit, but I crochet a bit.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, because I threw that in there because it obviously arrives. Okay,
<v Speaker 1>all right, because I know you're an excellent knitter, but
<v Speaker 1>I didn't you know. Actually, to be honest with you,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the difference between knitting and crocheting.
<v Speaker 2>So again, on the break, thank you.
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't it make you happy? Yellow makes me a smiling,
<v Speaker 1>contented fellow. Your garden will bloom because there's always more
<v Speaker 1>room for flowers and lime jello. Yellow's a must and ultimatum,
<v Speaker 1>and I quote almost verbatim, Stacy says, for a pollinaise,
<v Speaker 1>there is no plant that's greater than her beloved Sylphium perfoliatum.
<v Speaker 2>I got as that was some very impressive rhyming. Thank
<v Speaker 2>you nicely done.
<v Speaker 1>But that's cup plant, right.
<v Speaker 2>That is the cupplant. The yeah, it's it is, it
<v Speaker 2>characterizes and it's very bright yellow characterizes in my garden
<v Speaker 2>easily one of my favorites. And yeah, it's you know,
<v Speaker 2>what I love about it, aside from the way that
<v Speaker 2>it looks, is how much life it supports, because that
<v Speaker 2>really is what it's all about for me. And you know,
<v Speaker 2>I have a lot of other yellow flowering plants, of course,
<v Speaker 2>because I grow a lot of native plants, but nothing
<v Speaker 2>can really quite beat the sylphium for showiness and pollinator
<v Speaker 2>attracting and bird attracting ability.
<v Speaker 1>I like how perfoliatum rhymes with verbatim and ultimatum, all right. Anyhow.
<v Speaker 1>Excellent color combinations with yellow include navy blue, charcoal, gray, white, purple,
<v Speaker 1>shades of green like sage or hunter green. For a bold,
<v Speaker 1>modern look, pair bright yellow with black muted yellow works
<v Speaker 1>well with neutrals like beige or light gray. Because a
<v Speaker 1>lot of these pairings Stacey are inspired by nature. There
<v Speaker 1>is some historical context that I'm going to share in
<v Speaker 1>segment four for why I really love the color yellow.
<v Speaker 1>But it is a great color to pair with other colors.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, I don't usually go for really strong
<v Speaker 2>contrast in the garden, but I have to say, for me,
<v Speaker 2>in the summer, you cannot be yellow and bright red
<v Speaker 2>my sylphium with a cranberry crush Hibiscus summarific hibiscus. I
<v Speaker 2>just love it. I mean, some people would call it
<v Speaker 2>ketchup and mustard, and I'm not going to say you're wrong,
<v Speaker 2>but it is where I can just I just love,
<v Speaker 2>love love those two together in a summer garden. It's
<v Speaker 2>just can't beat it for me.
<v Speaker 1>What does it for me? Bright yellow tulips with purple
<v Speaker 1>tulips love.
<v Speaker 2>That's very West Michigan of you.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it is Plants on trial coming up next here
<v Speaker 1>on the Gardening Simplified.
<v Speaker 2>Show, Beautify your home and community with proven Winter's color
<v Speaker 2>Choice shrubs with over three hundred and twenty five unique
<v Speaker 2>varieties to choose from, there's a flowering, shrubb or evergreen

<v Speaker 2>distinctive white container your local garden center or learn more
<v Speaker 2>at proven Winner's Color Choice dot com. Reading's gardening friends,
<v Speaker 2>and welcome back to the Gardening Simplified Show, where we
<v Speaker 2>are doing one of our color shows. We haven't done
<v Speaker 2>one of these in a while.
<v Speaker 1>I love these shows.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're really fun because we can just talk about
<v Speaker 2>plants that we love in that color and talk about
<v Speaker 2>how to use them in the garden and the plants
<v Speaker 2>that we have, and that makes it really fun. So
<v Speaker 2>we haven't done yellow yet. And as you are, you know,
<v Speaker 2>in a cooler climate, probably planting your garden, maybe you
<v Speaker 2>are planting your annuals. I have to say, I'm surprised
<v Speaker 2>for your enthusiasm for yellow when you hate marigolds so much.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know that with marorgolds. It's just my past
<v Speaker 1>history and the smell of those things. Okay, yeah, the aroma.
<v Speaker 2>But marigolds are like a classic, very very classic yellow
<v Speaker 2>annual and I know they're on your.
<v Speaker 1>Please don't do not like cards, letters, notes, It's okay.
<v Speaker 2>Do you even hate the African marigolds? That are really
<v Speaker 2>really big and tall. They're like, those are pretty cool.
<v Speaker 1>Again. I handled thousands and thousands and thousands of flats
<v Speaker 1>of these had the dead head them smell like them
<v Speaker 1>going home. That's why I don't. Okay, all right, If
<v Speaker 1>you like marigolds, have at it.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, please do. But especially if you like yellow in
<v Speaker 2>your annuals, then marigolds are probably very much a part
<v Speaker 2>of that. Now, if you have ever wondered why when
<v Speaker 2>it comes to color foliage for plants, your options are
<v Speaker 2>fairly limited. You have green, of course, we all know
<v Speaker 2>foliage tends to be green. You have variegated, you have purple,
<v Speaker 2>and you have yellow. Now there's some plants with kind
<v Speaker 2>of bluish foliage like, but it's not, you know, really major.
<v Speaker 2>When you're looking for like a colorful foliage plant variegated
<v Speaker 2>purple or yellow, red, black, you know, some kind of
<v Speaker 2>permutation of purple, that's pretty much where your choices end.
<v Speaker 2>And if you've ever wondered why that is, well, it
<v Speaker 2>comes all down to plant pigments, and chlorophyll itself is
<v Speaker 2>a pigment, but there are other pigments which are responsible
<v Speaker 2>for different colors. So anthocyanins are the pigments that tend
<v Speaker 2>to favor red, purple black type pigments, and then you
<v Speaker 2>have the carotenoids, which favor the yellow and orange pigments.
<v Speaker 2>So basically what we have here is a situation where
<v Speaker 2>the plant and plants will generally have a lot of
<v Speaker 2>all those It's not like it's an either or, And
<v Speaker 2>it's not like a plant that is high in carotenoids
<v Speaker 2>or anthocyanins has no chlorophyll. It's still very much has chlorophyll.
<v Speaker 2>It's just that those other pigments are masking the chlorophyll.
<v Speaker 2>But that is why we have somewhat limited choices, and
<v Speaker 2>you don't just have, you know, any kind of crazy
<v Speaker 2>color in your foliage. But as gardens we can really
<v Speaker 2>kind of use this to our advantage by adding colorful
<v Speaker 2>foliage plants to our garden. And I think yellow is
<v Speaker 2>particularly useful. Of course, purple and black are useful to
<v Speaker 2>and they're lovely. But what I think is really so
<v Speaker 2>so great about yellow foliage is that, especially compared to red,
<v Speaker 2>purple black foliage, it tends to be very much more
<v Speaker 2>shade tolerant. This is going to depend on the variety
<v Speaker 2>and the type of plants. You're growing, of course, but
<v Speaker 2>how great is it that these yellow foliaged plants tend
<v Speaker 2>to do well in the shade where they can offer
<v Speaker 2>some bread brightness into those darker corners of our yard
<v Speaker 2>and really help to light up those spaces.
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're right. I love sun king Aurelia, and
<v Speaker 1>it's grown in the.
<v Speaker 2>Shape classic choice, definitely one of the absolute best for
<v Speaker 2>a shady for brightening up a shady spot. So yellow
<v Speaker 2>foliage plants are extremely useful. So I wanted to kind
<v Speaker 2>of go over a list of the yellow foliage plants
<v Speaker 2>that we have here in the proven Winter's Color Choice
<v Speaker 2>Shrubs line, so you can think about how these plants
<v Speaker 2>might fit into your landscape add some brightness. They're really
<v Speaker 2>great because as much as I love all my yellow flowers,
<v Speaker 2>the fact is they're around for you know, maybe six
<v Speaker 2>weeks at best in the summer. You know, my Sylphia,
<v Speaker 2>that's probably about how long that blooms. Whereas yellow foliage
<v Speaker 2>is there all season long, you never have to worry
<v Speaker 2>about it not being there, so it really helps to
<v Speaker 2>contribute interesting color and brightness to the landscape. Now, the
<v Speaker 2>first thing I have to say, of course, is my
<v Speaker 2>all time favorite yellow foliage plant in the proven Winter's
<v Speaker 2>color choice line lemony lace Alderberry.
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I mean same here.
<v Speaker 2>You know again, I've said it so many times on
<v Speaker 2>the show, but it every year. It blows me away.
<v Speaker 2>It's a plant that I saw growing here for years
<v Speaker 2>and until I got it on a plant giveaway, which
<v Speaker 2>if you like free plants, definitely look for a job
<v Speaker 2>in the green industry. You can be an accountant, you
<v Speaker 2>can be an HR person, you can be a salesperson.
<v Speaker 2>There's all these different ways to get into the industry
<v Speaker 2>and you will get free plants. So hot tip there.
<v Speaker 2>So I got this one years ago and I was
<v Speaker 2>just like, yeah, lemony lace is okay. You know, when
<v Speaker 2>I've seen it around the garden, it's pretty. Until I
<v Speaker 2>had that thing in my own yard, I just had
<v Speaker 2>no sense of how much I would love it. And
<v Speaker 2>it is an extraordinary plant because not only do you
<v Speaker 2>get that beautiful yellow foliage, it has the texture. It
<v Speaker 2>stays actually quite nice and small in my landscape because
<v Speaker 2>I don't provide a lot of water. If you have
<v Speaker 2>a lot of water or moistu or clay soil, it's
<v Speaker 2>going to get much much alarer merger stays pretty small
<v Speaker 2>for me. And it's just an absolute beautiful plant. Now,
<v Speaker 2>this is a plant that definitely benefits from placing it well,
<v Speaker 2>you know where it can really kind of be fully appreciated.
<v Speaker 2>And through some miraculous confluence of circumstances, I did actually
<v Speaker 2>manage to plant this in the perfect spot. And that
<v Speaker 2>it's just a plant that I don't think I could
<v Speaker 2>live without. Now do you have one?
<v Speaker 1>I have one. I love it, and I love the
<v Speaker 1>way it contrasts with blue colors in the landscape.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, so, Lemonie lace my first choice. Such an amazing plant,
<v Speaker 2>and of course for our warm climate friends, not the
<v Speaker 2>most heat tolerant, we do have this one, I think
<v Speaker 2>at heat tolerant only through USCA Zone seven. So but
<v Speaker 2>stay tuned. We've gotten another one for you. How about
<v Speaker 2>a yellow Abelia. Now Abelia, we've talked a bit about
<v Speaker 2>the show on the show here here and there. It's
<v Speaker 2>definitely more of a southern plant, even though it is
<v Speaker 2>fairly hardy. We have two fabulous yellow abelias, brilliant Tina
<v Speaker 2>and poke Loco. And for our warm climate friends, if
<v Speaker 2>you want that same bright yellow, these are great for
<v Speaker 2>the shade. They do flower, and the flowers are quite
<v Speaker 2>nice and fragrant, but these are really primarily foliage plants
<v Speaker 2>that you can just kind of put in the landscape
<v Speaker 2>and count on to give you extremely bright, very low
<v Speaker 2>maintenance color. Our abelias, and this is going to make
<v Speaker 2>sense to those of you who grow them in warm
<v Speaker 2>climates have been selected to not throw what is known
<v Speaker 2>as dog legs, and if you're again, if you're familiar
<v Speaker 2>with growing them, this probably makes sense to you. But
<v Speaker 2>it's when they put out these crazy long shoots. And
<v Speaker 2>doctor Judson Lacompte, our new plant development manager, southern guy
<v Speaker 2>at heart and by breeding, and he hates the abelia
<v Speaker 2>dog legs, so he makes sure that all of our
<v Speaker 2>abelias are free of dog legs. So Sunshine Blue Carryopterress
<v Speaker 2>yellow very much, so it's got the blue contrast that
<v Speaker 2>you like. So Carryoptress, of course is a fall bloomy plant.
<v Speaker 2>The green variety that we have beyond Midnight is also
<v Speaker 2>absolutely beautiful. But Sunshine Blue with that bright yellow foliage
<v Speaker 2>to go all through the season until it starts to
<v Speaker 2>bloom in late August September for us here, and then
<v Speaker 2>you get that great contrast. It's just a wonderful plant
<v Speaker 2>to have around because it's really pulling its weight all year. Now,
<v Speaker 2>as much as I love a plant that is kind
<v Speaker 2>of nondescript and then all of the sudden is like
<v Speaker 2>look at me, it's also nice to have something that's,
<v Speaker 2>you know, contributing substantially to the landscape throughout the season.
<v Speaker 2>Winecraft gold catinas. Now there is a showy plant.
<v Speaker 1>Oh boy, And there's a lot of interest in this way.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and is a very cool one. And that is
<v Speaker 2>one that you know, compared to the purple leafed catinas
<v Speaker 2>or smoke bush, this is one it's going to be
<v Speaker 2>able to take a little more shade than those sun
<v Speaker 2>loving ones. So you know, if you love a type
<v Speaker 2>of plant and you don't have a lot of sun
<v Speaker 2>very often, you can check to see if there is
<v Speaker 2>a yellow variety and in many cases it will be
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more shade tolerant than the other counterparts.
<v Speaker 2>Chardonnay Pearl's dutsia more people should plant it. The only
<v Speaker 2>yellow foliage dutsia on the market, and it's one of
<v Speaker 2>those plants it's been around for so long. It was
<v Speaker 2>one of the first plants that we offered in the
<v Speaker 2>line doesn't really get enough attention. Man, When you see
<v Speaker 2>that thing in bloom, it is just so beautiful golden
<v Speaker 2>foliage and then beautiful white bell shaped flowers kind of
<v Speaker 2>hovering over that mound of golden foliage.
<v Speaker 1>I'll talk about that in segment. For one of my
<v Speaker 1>favorite color combinations is yellow and white.
<v Speaker 2>So elegant it is. It's surprisingly elegant for you, Rick,
<v Speaker 2>I know you like the louder thing, so I'm impressed.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. Kodiak freshter Villa trying to become more refined.
<v Speaker 2>So you have to put your your pinky up while
<v Speaker 2>you drink that mug. Then then you will be refined.
<v Speaker 2>The higher the pinky, the fancier you are. There you go.
<v Speaker 2>A little SpongeBob reference for all my SpongeBob peeps out there.
<v Speaker 2>A Kodiak Fresh Dravilla, a beautiful orange yellow foliage darvilla
<v Speaker 2>great for shade or really for anywhere. And double play
<v Speaker 2>candy corn now a workhourse a double play candy corn.
<v Speaker 2>I know once when I was writing catalog copy for
<v Speaker 2>this plant, I asked rhetorically, can a plant be too colorful?
<v Speaker 2>Because if a plant can be too colorful, it's probably
<v Speaker 2>double play. Candy car and this thing is a color powerhouse. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>So in spring it comes out with its bright red foliage.
<v Speaker 2>It just pops out of the mulch and then through
<v Speaker 2>the suit and then it kind of turns orange with
<v Speaker 2>that red new growth. And then through the season it
<v Speaker 2>has this bright, bright yellow foliage with these hot pink flowers.
<v Speaker 2>It is such an interesting and unusual combination. It is
<v Speaker 2>obviously a hit because it is far and away our
<v Speaker 2>best selling SPYRIEA the Proven Winner's Color Choice line. So
<v Speaker 2>that's when you have to see to believe. I have
<v Speaker 2>a whole list. So I didn't even get a chance
<v Speaker 2>to get to because I was just yammering away about
<v Speaker 2>how much I like yellow plants.
<v Speaker 1>We pick some of them up in segment four perfect.
<v Speaker 2>So you haven't heard about all of the yellow plants
<v Speaker 2>in the Proven Winter's Color Choice line just yet. So

<v Speaker 1>Okay adding it to my Vocay.
<v Speaker 2>Okay, lovely perfect, that's outstanding. I'm wondering about the context,
<v Speaker 2>but I'm glad to know it's.
<v Speaker 1>Say, I got a question for you, if I you
<v Speaker 1>know this part of the show, if I may ask
<v Speaker 1>the question. It's been bothering me since segment one, but
<v Speaker 1>I think it just popped into my head that the
<v Speaker 1>difference between knitting and crocheting. Now, crocheting is not that
<v Speaker 1>game you play on the lawn with the ball and
<v Speaker 1>the that's croquet croquet.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>So the difference between knitting and crocheting, it just popped
<v Speaker 1>into my head, is that crochet needles use a hook?
<v Speaker 1>Am I right?
<v Speaker 2>Crochet you crochet with a hook. You wouldn't call it
<v Speaker 2>a crochet needle.
<v Speaker 1>It's not a crochet needle. But you use a hook.
<v Speaker 2>You use a hook, and with needles. With knitting, you
<v Speaker 2>use a pair of needles.
<v Speaker 1>Because years ago we used to have all those they
<v Speaker 1>called them latch hook kits.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, that's totally different, okay, but yes, the latch
<v Speaker 2>hook kits were really quite the rage in the seventies.
<v Speaker 2>I was a little too young to have one, but
<v Speaker 2>I remember seeing them everywhere, like on TV, and you know,
<v Speaker 2>seeing the.
<v Speaker 1>And is that the needle you used to make your
<v Speaker 1>lawn chairs?
<v Speaker 2>So if you are making a lawn chair out of
<v Speaker 2>macrime cord, you tend to use two crochet hooks, okay,
<v Speaker 2>to hold the loops while you're you know, weaving the
<v Speaker 2>crow the macrime cord back and forth. But it's not
<v Speaker 2>technically crochet. It is actually a combination of macro weaving.
<v Speaker 2>So it's very confusing because people will call the macrame
<v Speaker 2>launchairs that not is kind of like a macrime, but
<v Speaker 2>you use crochet hooks and mostly you're just weaving macrime
<v Speaker 2>cord through the I'm learning.
<v Speaker 1>A lot here. Yes, that's really pistiche What does the
<v Speaker 1>word mean again?
<v Speaker 2>It means a poor fact simile. So it's like you,
<v Speaker 2>like I would say that the results that an AP
<v Speaker 2>or sorry, an AI or a chat but gives you
<v Speaker 2>is a pistiche. It is they're taking a variety of
<v Speaker 2>sources and kind of cobbling together into some sort of
<v Speaker 2>really subpar answer.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I want to use my new word. I have
<v Speaker 1>a picture for our YouTube video viewers. I found an
<v Speaker 1>AI image of container plant, a colorful plant that those
<v Speaker 1>images are just everywhere and it's terrible. And you can
<v Speaker 1>see the smiling lady the picture of this multi colored plant.
<v Speaker 1>Her shoes are offset from where she's standing, so you
<v Speaker 1>can tell it's an AI photo. I guess it's just
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity to remind people that those things are abundant
<v Speaker 1>out there right.
<v Speaker 2>Now, right And you know you don't want to get
<v Speaker 2>me started.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, but no, but this is important because example.
<v Speaker 2>Of it is. I would say most AI results are
<v Speaker 2>a postiche. And you know, it's very frustrating to me
<v Speaker 2>the way that AI has been used in for gardening
<v Speaker 2>and for plants and by bad actors. You know, I'm
<v Speaker 2>not talking like you know, because plants are pretty freaking
<v Speaker 2>cool as it is. If you haven't noticed, plants do
<v Speaker 2>not need to be you know, transformed into some imaginary
<v Speaker 2>thing for them to be appreciated and to be useful
<v Speaker 2>and to be cool.
<v Speaker 1>But you know that in my rewirement, I help out
<v Speaker 1>in the greenhouse a little bit in spring Stacy. You
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't believe the number of people come in asking for it.
<v Speaker 2>No, oh yeah, oh man, Well you know what, if
<v Speaker 2>you go to the proven Winner's Color Choice website, we
<v Speaker 2>don't use AI on our photos. They are real photos,
<v Speaker 2>are actual plants in our actual landscape. And if they
<v Speaker 2>don't look real, that's just because they are that great.
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, again, We've done an AI show years ago
<v Speaker 2>and it was like, sort of at the beginning, I
<v Speaker 2>think we need to probably reprise this, but I will
<v Speaker 2>tell you this, if it looks too good to be true,
<v Speaker 2>it probably is. And if you are not sure and
<v Speaker 2>you are thinking about spending money on any kind of
<v Speaker 2>seed or plant or anything like that. I truly mean this.
<v Speaker 2>You are most welcome to contact us at Gardening Simplified
<v Speaker 2>on Air dot com or a proven Winner's Color Choice
<v Speaker 2>dot com. Send us a link, send us a photo,
<v Speaker 2>and we will tell you kindly if it's a real
<v Speaker 2>plant or if you should not waste your money, because
<v Speaker 2>there are a lot of scammers out there using these
<v Speaker 2>plants to try to sell them to people and it's unconscionable.
<v Speaker 1>We'll let you know whether or not it's pastiche you
<v Speaker 1>go ahead, it'll look.
<v Speaker 2>Okay, all right, Okay, So we have a question here
<v Speaker 2>from Genie. She has two April tryst camelias. She decided
<v Speaker 2>to retransplant them side by side against the south side
<v Speaker 2>of her fence to protect them from hot afternoon sun.
<v Speaker 2>Good idea for camelias. From a distance, she said, they
<v Speaker 2>look beautiful with spring blooms, but on closer look, they
<v Speaker 2>look diseased. The leaves are dropping off and she's constantly
<v Speaker 2>cleaning them off the ground. Please help me identify what's
<v Speaker 2>going on and how I can treat the problem. So
<v Speaker 2>she sent some pictures. The good news here, Genie, I
<v Speaker 2>am not a complete expert on camellia's not by a
<v Speaker 2>long shot, since I cannot grow them sadly in Michigan,
<v Speaker 2>I actually don't think you have anything to worry about. Yes,
<v Speaker 2>camelias are susceptible to some various diseases, certainly ifitoptera, which
<v Speaker 2>is a root disease that happens in poor drainage, is
<v Speaker 2>one of the most popular or most common not popular,
<v Speaker 2>that has a very distinctive look. And if you look
<v Speaker 2>up camellia diseases and leaf spots, you will you won't
<v Speaker 2>find anything that looks like what yours look like. So
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a couple of things going on. I
<v Speaker 2>think that the damage that you're seeing on these leaves
<v Speaker 2>is very possibly from cold and not from any kind
<v Speaker 2>of disease or anything like that. We did have remember
<v Speaker 2>an extremely cold winter this past winter, and because these
<v Speaker 2>plants had been transplanted, they probably were not quite as
<v Speaker 2>well equipped to deal with that cold as they would
<v Speaker 2>have been if they hadn't been moved. The other thing,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how long you've had these, but camellias
<v Speaker 2>drop their three year old leaves every spring and early summer.
<v Speaker 2>So the fact that they are dropping the leaves may
<v Speaker 2>simply be a fact that the plant has gotten mature
<v Speaker 2>enough now that it's just shedding those leaves in a
<v Speaker 2>normal way. And as long as the plant is putting
<v Speaker 2>on fresh, healthy, new growth to replace that, you've got
<v Speaker 2>nothing to worry about. Because even evergreens do lose their leaves,
<v Speaker 2>and that causes people to kind of freak out because
<v Speaker 2>they think that something is wrong and different evergreens lose
<v Speaker 2>their leaves at different times. We've talked about white pines
<v Speaker 2>losing their needles in fall, which of course also freaks
<v Speaker 2>people out. So I don't see anything in your Camellia's
<v Speaker 2>genie that is causing me worry or anything like that.
<v Speaker 2>I think they're just you know, again, I'm not sure
<v Speaker 2>where you're located. I think it was somewhere in New York.
<v Speaker 2>Not quite ideal Camelia territory, a little bit too cool. Still,
<v Speaker 2>so the fact that they might have gotten some cold
<v Speaker 2>damage and are now at an age where they're just
<v Speaker 2>replacing those three year old leaves that may combine to
<v Speaker 2>make it look very alarming, But in reality, I don't
<v Speaker 2>think you've got anything to worry about.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think you nailed it, Stacy, because think about it,
<v Speaker 1>in spring or early spring, we're going to tend towards
<v Speaker 1>looking towards cold or winter damage, as opposed to later
<v Speaker 1>in summer when we'd be looking closely at disease. Yeah, exactly, Okay,
<v Speaker 1>all right, Karen writes to us. I am slowly adding
<v Speaker 1>shrubs perennials each summer. I have an area in my
<v Speaker 1>backyard I'd like to turn into a butterfly garden with
<v Speaker 1>a fire light Hydrangea alium lantana cone flowers. The concern
<v Speaker 1>here is stay is the walnut tree stump in the middle.
<v Speaker 1>So worries about the soil because of this walnut and
<v Speaker 1>says please help a new gardener out as I am stumped.
<v Speaker 2>Right, So she also says, I'm worried about the soil
<v Speaker 2>in this area being acidic due to this stump. I
<v Speaker 2>don't think you have any concern about that. Of course,
<v Speaker 2>people are always worried about walnuts, black walnuts, because they
<v Speaker 2>do kind of have this chemical that can suppress the
<v Speaker 2>growth and even kill very sensitive plants that are growing
<v Speaker 2>around it. A lot of people believe that it is
<v Speaker 2>the walnut roots that are the culprit. But in fact,
<v Speaker 2>that's not the case. It's actually the leaves, the stems,
<v Speaker 2>and especially the fruits when they fall. So if this
<v Speaker 2>thing has been cut down and that stem, that stump
<v Speaker 2>is decomposing, you don't have to worry at all. I
<v Speaker 2>mean maybe if you have very very sensitive plants, like
<v Speaker 2>I know tomatoes are extremely sensitive to jug loan, but
<v Speaker 2>you're not even talking about growing tomatoes around this plant
<v Speaker 2>so or around this old stump, So I don't think
<v Speaker 2>it's a cause for concern. Go ahead and leave the
<v Speaker 2>stump as some interest, and I wouldn't worry about it.
<v Speaker 2>You can do some research again, if you just want
<v Speaker 2>to be perfectly safe. I don't know how long this
<v Speaker 2>walnut tree has been cut down, you can do some
<v Speaker 2>research on plants that are resistant to jug loan. That's
<v Speaker 2>jug l O n E. That is the chemical that
<v Speaker 2>the walnuts can emit. Just so you're not putting anything
<v Speaker 2>that's super duper sensitive in there. But for the most part,
<v Speaker 2>I think that everything you've listed should be absolutely fine.
<v Speaker 2>It's a pretty small list that is truly that sensitive
<v Speaker 2>to jug loan. So good luck with the project. It
<v Speaker 2>sounds very interesting. We are going to take a little
<v Speaker 2>break when we come back, We're continuing our conversation on
<v Speaker 2>yellow in the garden and plantscape, so please stay tuned.

<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to the Gardening Simplified Show. As we talk
<v Speaker 1>about the color yellow, Stacy I had mentioned that I
<v Speaker 1>love that yellow and white combination. Let me give you
<v Speaker 1>some examples. Sunsatia, coconut nmejus, Oh, isn't it great? That's
<v Speaker 1>very cool, bright yellow color in the center on a
<v Speaker 1>white flower. I have a picture for our YouTube viewers
<v Speaker 1>of yellow hellabores in my landscape that I took on
<v Speaker 1>a snowy day. That combination of yellow and white. I
<v Speaker 1>love that combination of a mellow yellow with white, luscious lantana,
<v Speaker 1>vanilla breeze, Biden's campfire marshmallow, all of those are great.
<v Speaker 1>And I think it stems from and yeah, pun intended,
<v Speaker 1>it stems from my interest in history. The yellow paint
<v Speaker 1>color used on the walls of Thomas Jefferson's dining room
<v Speaker 1>at Monticello is known as chrome yellow, but today it's
<v Speaker 1>marketed as Monticello Yellow. But it's vibrant and the color
<v Speaker 1>that they used in interiors at that time, seventeen hundreds
<v Speaker 1>into the eighteen hundreds. You'll see that in those types
<v Speaker 1>of homes, a buttery yellow on dining room walls. Alexander
<v Speaker 1>Hamilton's home is another great example. And if you look
<v Speaker 1>at the exterior of the home, also surrounded by thirteen
<v Speaker 1>sweet gum trees that are there to note the thirteen
<v Speaker 1>original colonies, but the dining room or even outdoors in
<v Speaker 1>the yellow exterior. In the exterior it's yellow with white trim.
<v Speaker 1>And that combination of yellow with white trim, I love it.
<v Speaker 1>And you can see it at the Hamilton Grange National
<v Speaker 1>Memorial in Harlem. I've visited there, of course. That's the
<v Speaker 1>or just to the northeast of that location would be
<v Speaker 1>Yankee Stadium and the New York Botanical Garden, which I
<v Speaker 1>know you're very familiar.
<v Speaker 2>I am very familiar with, yes, but.
<v Speaker 1>Again with a little historical context, I love that yellow
<v Speaker 1>and white combination.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is great, and it has more of that subtlety.
<v Speaker 2>You'll take a daffodil, right, we're just at the tail
<v Speaker 2>in a daffodil season, a white and yellow daffodil. I mean,
<v Speaker 2>of course, the classic yellow is fabulous, but the white
<v Speaker 2>and yellow, it just has so much more depth than
<v Speaker 2>it's just you know, it's a little bit unexpected.
<v Speaker 1>You got it, you got it, love it. So here's
<v Speaker 1>some favorite yellows. Decadence, pink, lemonade, lemon, meringue, any of
<v Speaker 1>those baptisias. I think a classic yellow on a Solosia
<v Speaker 1>flower is amazing. Last year I grew some straw flower flombay.
<v Speaker 1>The yellow also known as common everlasting, heat and drought tolerant,
<v Speaker 1>can handle poor soils, deer resistant cool plant. Another one
<v Speaker 1>that I tried in my content was the y kaki
<v Speaker 1>sunset lysomachia. That's a cool plant also. But when I
<v Speaker 1>think of the color yellow and the landscape too stacy
<v Speaker 1>right away my mind aside from the spy rheas that
<v Speaker 1>you had mentioned in Plants on Trial, the Arctic fire yellow.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, now there's an unexpected yellow, and that works well
<v Speaker 2>for your yellow and white combo exactly because you know
<v Speaker 2>everybody knows red twig dogwood turns nice red in the winter.
<v Speaker 2>This is one that turns yellow and it is really
<v Speaker 2>extraordinary and just so refreshing to see something different. Now,
<v Speaker 2>I do love the red, it's beautiful, but the yellow,
<v Speaker 2>it's just it's a really nice twist on you know,
<v Speaker 2>the kind of the ubiquitous red. And I'll tell you,
<v Speaker 2>if you match it in your landscape with the right
<v Speaker 2>color house and with evergreens, it could be something that
<v Speaker 2>it's truly truly stunning and still very nice to bring
<v Speaker 2>in for the holidays. So for some nice light in
<v Speaker 2>the house and Stacy.
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of shrubs again, I have observed on the sales
<v Speaker 1>floor that people love the Tater Tot arborvitie. But then
<v Speaker 1>you show them Anna's Ball.
<v Speaker 2>And it's magic ball.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah wow.
<v Speaker 2>So I mean Tater Tot is easily one of our
<v Speaker 2>best selling shrubs evergreens. It is a small round arborvite
<v Speaker 2>and people do love it. But yeah, Anna's magic ball
<v Speaker 2>actually can be for Tater Tot and it is a
<v Speaker 2>beautiful bright gold. So you call them evergreens, but they're
<v Speaker 2>actually ever yellows. And so we've selected all of these
<v Speaker 2>golden evergreens to keep that golden color in winter, because
<v Speaker 2>a lot of them don't. They'll kind of go bronze
<v Speaker 2>or you know, not so nice. So when we're trialing
<v Speaker 2>and evaluating these, yeah, our new plan evaluation team is
<v Speaker 2>out there even in the dead of winter making sure
<v Speaker 2>that they really keep that nice color and stay interesting
<v Speaker 2>and beautiful in the landscape.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, fantastic plant. So let's run through a few very quickly. Here,
<v Speaker 1>marguerite daisy, golden butterfly. The uh oh yeah, why that
<v Speaker 1>one A tough one for people to pronounce argur ranthemum,
<v Speaker 1>I believe is how it's pronounced. Seed them yellow brick road,
<v Speaker 1>any of your achillas, your yarrows, like firefly, sunshine, lemon
<v Speaker 1>zest Oh so easy rose. I had that in my
<v Speaker 1>lands landscape, and Stacey threw up this exercise. I've realized
<v Speaker 1>there's many yellow plants I love in the landscape. Potentilla
<v Speaker 1>happy face yellow potentilla, Saint John's wart Sonny Boulevard.
<v Speaker 2>Two great pollinator plants, by the way.
<v Speaker 1>Exactly amazing daisies, banana cream. Oh, that's such a great plant.
<v Speaker 2>That is so pretty.
<v Speaker 1>It is.
<v Speaker 2>And like I was saying about the about the yellow
<v Speaker 2>and white Davidils. It's just a nice twist. I mean,
<v Speaker 2>Shasta daisy's are fabulous and they're already yellow and white.
<v Speaker 2>But banana cream is just such a pretty plant. It
<v Speaker 2>takes my breathway every time I see it. It's what
<v Speaker 2>I need to get in my garden.
<v Speaker 1>My mom told me there'd be daisies like this mojave
<v Speaker 1>yellow purse lane. I grow that in my vegetable garden
<v Speaker 1>to attract pollinators, super bells, lemon slice, calibricoa.
<v Speaker 2>That's cool.
<v Speaker 1>And then we've got to mention the new plant on
<v Speaker 1>the front this year, the super lofuss nice a Sunglow
<v Speaker 1>Texas primrose or it's an onethra. Now talk about a
<v Speaker 1>dependable drought and heat tolerant plant with beautiful yellow flowers.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and big yellow flowers too. It's definitely if you
<v Speaker 2>see that one and you have a lot of sun
<v Speaker 2>and you feel like you are not a reliable water
<v Speaker 2>for waterer for your containers, that would be a great choice.
<v Speaker 1>Show off for Scythia. I know we're past early spring,
<v Speaker 1>but show off for Scythia will give you yellow yellow
<v Speaker 1>color like you can't believe. And then, Stacey, I want
<v Speaker 1>to ask you about because I have it growing up
<v Speaker 1>the pergola now a non invasive scentsation honeysuckle that's in
<v Speaker 1>bloom in the green for spring sails. Those blooms are spectacular.
<v Speaker 2>They are, and they hummingbirds love them. And it just
<v Speaker 2>has so many of them. And that has a nice
<v Speaker 2>combination of sort of that powdery blue foliage, you know,
<v Speaker 2>that kind of like blueish waxy foliage. Beautiful combination.
<v Speaker 1>It's a great plant. Sun credible yellow sunflowers or helianthus.
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned the sun king Aurelia for shade lemon coral
<v Speaker 1>seedum to use as a spiller, let's say, in a
<v Speaker 1>container raised for days. Heliopsis I had mentioned the going
<v Speaker 1>bananas day lilies, Tuscan sun fun yellow Colomatis.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, that is such a cool plant. Adriana
<v Speaker 2>loves that. She's a huge smile on her face because
<v Speaker 2>she loves this plant. And it's another one you have
<v Speaker 2>to see to believe, because you know everyone knows clematis,
<v Speaker 2>but it unlike other clematis, the flowers kind of hang
<v Speaker 2>down right like little yellow octopi. They have a lot
<v Speaker 2>of long petals. It smells a little bit like grapefruit,
<v Speaker 2>just a beautiful, soft yellow color, very long blooming. This
<v Speaker 2>is a newer clematis, and this is definitely one. This
<v Speaker 2>isn't gonna be one of those clematists that kind of
<v Speaker 2>cover your whole fence or whole railing. This is more
<v Speaker 2>of a perennial garden clematist that you would grow on
<v Speaker 2>a smaller trellis or something like that. But you will
<v Speaker 2>not regret it. This is every time I see this plant,
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, is that real?
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know, it's amazing and it perfectly fits
<v Speaker 1>the description canary gold in my mind. It's just such
<v Speaker 1>a great plant goldilocks, rocks bidens. And we have to
<v Speaker 1>mention the reminiscent yellow rose.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yes, very new, very cool yellow roses. You know
<v Speaker 2>in the rose world, yellow is actually the hardest variety
<v Speaker 2>to develop disease resistance in. And that is why in
<v Speaker 2>our rose series, like lemons Oh so easy lemons s
<v Speaker 2>that you mentioned before, and Reminiscent yellow were some of
<v Speaker 2>the later additions to our line because they really needed
<v Speaker 2>we needed a lot more plants and a lot more
<v Speaker 2>testing to make sure that they met our standards for
<v Speaker 2>disease resistance, because I don't know what it is about roses,
<v Speaker 2>but there's something in the genes that make the yellow
<v Speaker 2>color that tends to reduce their ability to withstand, you know,
<v Speaker 2>diseases like powdery mildew and black spots. So a lot
<v Speaker 2>of extra testing goes into those yellow roses.
<v Speaker 1>Interesting and of course to wrap it up, maestro gold, hummingbird, mint, agistachi,
<v Speaker 1>and then of course supertunias now have yellow, and some
<v Speaker 1>pretty good yellow supertunias in honey petuna or saffron finch.
<v Speaker 2>So I love finch. That is not only a great color,
<v Speaker 2>but a truly high performer. Couldn't believe my eyes when
<v Speaker 2>I had that in my garden. I said that a
<v Speaker 2>lot this time, but I couldn't believe my eyes.
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, it's true, but it's true yellow. You've got some
<v Speaker 1>great opportunity to enjoying your landscape this year. Thank you Stacey,
<v Speaker 1>thank you Rick, Thanks Adriana, and thanks most of all
<v Speaker 1>to you who watch us on YouTube, who download the podcast,
<v Speaker 1>tell your friends and neighbors, or listen to the radio
<v Speaker 1>show version of the show. Have yourself a great week.
