Your ‘Knock Outs’ should be happy as long as they’re in full sun.

Which Hydrangea did you plant? I had a dozen different varieties at my other farm. I miss them so much, but adding them to my ‘new (1900!) farm is in the works. :) ‘Blushing Bride’ is my favorite, and I also love any of the Hydrangea with the ‘cone-shaped’ flowers. Too lazy to go look them all up right now...

Thanks for the reminder! I wanted to post about the ‘kid’ that bred that entire line of ‘Knock Out’ roses...he started breeding roses when he was just seventeen!

I got the hydrangea at Home Depot, east side.
The name.... Summer something?
Very nice plant and was about 8 bucks at half price sale.

Got the roses there too in a cherry rose color. I had a fresh vase of roses on my kitchen table all summer and fall.

Very nice.

I want to splurge and buy amethyst cleome and big blue salvia in larger pots this year. A friend had some this past year and they were worth the extra money.

She had a King Tut plant , as a feature plant in a large planter pot, that was cool. I never heard of those before. Never grew them for sale.

cheers!
