I'm fourteen hundred, FM ninety 3 00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:12.160 three point three and FMT ninety five point one. The 4 00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.640 Green Country Gardener Program with our expert Larry Glass, is 5 00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:20.440 brought to you by Green Glum Nursery and Greenhouses United, Reynolds, 6 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:26.519 Kelly Banks, Tree Service, Roman's Outdoor Power, Accent, Pest Control, Ascension, 7 00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.640 Saint John, Jane Phillips, and Gateway First Bank. 8 00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.399 And good morning, Welcome to Green Country Gardener on this 9 00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:48.119 Saturday morning. I'm Nathan Thompson in with our gardening expert 10 00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:49.240 Larry Glass. 11 00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.200 Good morning, Larry, Good morning. How are you today? 12 00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.320 Oh I'm great man, I'm doing good. It's a little 13 00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:56.240 chilly in here. I know it's hot outside. 14 00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.880 We're just talking about I'm looking at the thermometer on 15 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:04.719 the wall. Seventy five. Yeah, and it seems cold. It's Sunday, 16 00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:07.480 it's going to be seventy two, exactly. I have to 17 00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:08.840 get out the flannels. 18 00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:14.920 Well, we certainly do need the cooler weather as we 19 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.680 get into our fall planting. Now, this is the last 20 00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:22.120 official day of summer and the actual fall begins tomorrow. 21 00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:25.560 But and you know, It certainly has felt like the 22 00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:26.120 last day. 23 00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.400 Of forty eight hour transition period. 24 00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:32.079 Exactly. You know, I think this is probably the most 25 00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:35.239 on time that Mother Nature has been to make the 26 00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:38.879 change for our seasons around here. Crazy, it really is. Well, 27 00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:42.439 if you have any questions for Larry about fall gardening, 28 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:44.159 you can give us a call here. 29 00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.239 It's a lot out there, milk with all the solder 30 00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:48.519 telephone that's right. 31 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:53.400 Till free one eight hundred and seven nine three six 32 00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:57.439 seven four nine five nine three six for your calls 33 00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:01.159 about gardening, Larry. Lots of things going on. 34 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:04.599 Hey, this is a transition between the summer and fall. 35 00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:09.039 And in response to that, we have a significant quantity 36 00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:13.439 of chrysanthemums at the nursery. And these are rather large ones. 37 00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:17.719 And somebody came yesterday they couldn't get them all hardly 38 00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:18.360 into their car. 39 00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:19.639 Oh my goodness. 40 00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.960 So anyway, there's some of them are just bigger around 41 00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:27.439 as a bushel basket. Some we have some small ones too, 42 00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.159 So they're open right now that they're getting ready to bloom. 43 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:35.199 They respond to the day of the length day, the 44 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:42.319 length of the Hello, little tongue tied this morning. Allergies 45 00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.000 are a problem to anyway, they're responding to the shortening 46 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:51.319 of the length of the day by blooming. And I 47 00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:53.400 noticed that the mom's out in people's yards are doing 48 00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:56.919 the same thing, so uh, it's time. Also, we have 49 00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:03.439 a flowering Kale's interesting plant. It looks kind of nondescripting 50 00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.520 green right now, but when it when it gets cooler, 51 00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:07.599 when it gets found in the fifties and fifties and 52 00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:12.360 forties at night, they changed color. It's rather significant color too. 53 00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:16.759 And I like to compose them with with pansies by 54 00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.840 the front door someplace where where you see it a lot. 55 00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:24.759 But anyway, so Kayler out too. Pansies are are out also. 56 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.759 We have we've sold love pansies so far and we 57 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:32.159 have about ten thousand square feet of pansies my goodness 58 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:34.159 coming up in the back in the greenhouses too for 59 00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:37.840 the next generation coming on. So it's a funny thing though. 60 00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:41.439 This week the power went out, yes, oh boy, and 61 00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:43.599 you know how to get in the greenhouse. Oh yeah, 62 00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:47.479 we had generators going and all that. Then it popped 63 00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:52.039 back on so we were okay. So that was scary too. 64 00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:52.639 That's good. 65 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:56.639 It's tens and thousands of pancies out there and that's 66 00:03:56.639 --> 00:04:01.680 that's a lot of a lot of Yeah, you can't 67 00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:03.439 get replacement plants at this point too. 68 00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:07.120 They're all right, so right, well it's it's certainly been 69 00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:13.120 up and down, uh with the weather here recently, and obviously. 70 00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:13.960 Up and heat down with rain. 71 00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:17.639 Yes, totally. Let's hold fingers crossed. 72 00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:19.720 That was nice as the little rain we had yesterday was. 73 00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:22.439 It was nice. We have war coming on the way tomorrow. 74 00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:28.519 Probably don't bom me, don't kill the messenger. 75 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.160 What do I need to do to prepare my ground 76 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:34.800 for the panzins? Well, first of all, you you probably 77 00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:38.199 need to sharpen your shovel right now, because I know 78 00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.319 that from experience, the ground as hard as a rock, 79 00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:44.240 So it does need to be prepared. So if you can, 80 00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:48.279 as much as possible, do some degree of ground preparation 81 00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:52.319 before planting your fall blooming plants. So now the opportunity 82 00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:55.000 is good for that right now. If if you don't 83 00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:57.600 get to it till say Monday or Tuesday, it is fine. 84 00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:00.560 We're gonna have some rain. It'll help, yes, break up 85 00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:03.920 the soil. And if you can possibly get out there 86 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:06.279 and break it up before the rain, the water will 87 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:08.560 go deeper into the ground before it runs down the street. 88 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:10.240 There you go. 89 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.759 So by increasing the breaking up the soil, it penetrates 90 00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.319 deeper and you get better water storage that way too. 91 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.439 So time to get the shovel out and maybe grind 92 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:25.959 a point on it and put on some good heavy 93 00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:27.160 shoes so you can jump on it. 94 00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:28.680 You go, there you go. 95 00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.560 Yeah, I was swinging a pic this week, just crazy 96 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:35.439 trying to get that ground blsted on a project. Man, 97 00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:36.279 it's just awful. 98 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:37.079 It is awful. 99 00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:40.360 Anyway, I can't wait to get ready. We can get back, 100 00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:42.519 get back on our schedule. We're so far behind in 101 00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:45.839 our schedule simply because you just can't work so many 102 00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.480 hours during the heat. So it slowed us down an 103 00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.560 awful lot. So get the beds ready. The ground is warm, 104 00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:54.199 the air will be cool. Some time is prying for 105 00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:57.920 fall punting. Remember to prepare the soil once again, add 106 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.360 composts and or fertilizer and water it in real Well, 107 00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:04.480 if you get the water levels up before you plant 108 00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:07.720 your your pansies or your kale, they'll they'll do a 109 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.279 lot better. I told somebody yesterday, Well you just need 110 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:13.000 to dig a bigger hole and maybe plant it in 111 00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:16.040 some mud. You know, get some some moisture in there, 112 00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:20.439 get some wetness in there, and the interface between the pot. 113 00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:23.160 If you take a plant out of a out of 114 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:25.360 a pot, you see a lot of rits along the 115 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:29.399 edge and that tends to form somewhat of a barrier 116 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:33.000 between the soil and the root ball itself. So if 117 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:35.079 you rough it up a little bit and maybe plant 118 00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:39.120 it in some significantly wet soil, kind of pack it 119 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:40.639 in a little not too tight, but you know, just 120 00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:42.800 kind of back fill it with some good wet soil, 121 00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.240 they'll do a lot better. You really don't ever want 122 00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:48.519 to plant anything in dry soil. 123 00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:50.199 It's very true. 124 00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:55.120 Dry good, good about three hours your plant we go. 125 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:01.959 Needs those nutrients in a good moi soil to really 126 00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:02.959 help it take on. 127 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:05.879 Yeah, it's a diffusion, it's a simple term for it. 128 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.600 The water just gets drawn out of the plant and 129 00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:10.879 it it suffers a lot. So you want to make 130 00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:13.000 sure that you have a significant amount of moisture in 131 00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:16.439 this soil prior to planting, as well as a maintenance 132 00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:20.079 of moisture sure as you go along too. Other words, 133 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:21.519 go to the garage and push the button. 134 00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:26.279 Let's see, I I don't I have the old bag. 135 00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:29.160 Actually go to the spickett and turn on my soaker. 136 00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:29.959 I have a soaker. 137 00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:33.360 Yeah, I have a soaker in my I use my 138 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:34.079 my phone. 139 00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:38.000 Oh yeah, see yeah, well I'm old fashioned. 140 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.720 I guess a lot of my customers do that too. 141 00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:40.680 They just love that. 142 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:41.920 Yeah. 143 00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:43.519 Oh it looks a little right. 144 00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:49.160 I just have to walk outside it comes up. Yeah, okay, yeah, 145 00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:52.879 I just I don't have like an irrigation system for 146 00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:56.759 for my yard, for my lawn. But I know you could. 147 00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.800 I know you could. There's a lot of things that 148 00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:03.519 need to be fixed. In my heart. It's been, but 149 00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:06.199 it's I've noticed. It's it's time for me to make 150 00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:10.879 the change because I I planted very simply some petunias 151 00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:13.959 and they're still doing well. Believe it or not, my 152 00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:17.079 petunias are still doing very well. My dahlia not so much. 153 00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.879 Dahlia has given up the ghost. 154 00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:23.639 It's a little a little too hot here for them, 155 00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.639 and in the heat of the summer they do pretty well. 156 00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:27.680 We had them up and when I lived in Chicago, 157 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:29.600 we had them, and even in Georgia when we were there. 158 00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:30.399 It's cooler there too. 159 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:30.800 Yeah. 160 00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:37.000 Here, big beautiful blooms, especially up up North are absolutely perfect. 161 00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:40.120 Massive. Yeah. I think the biggest bloom I got on 162 00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:42.600 on was maybe the size of a chocolate chip cookie. 163 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:45.360 That's all I was able to get out this year. 164 00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:48.000 I'm telling well, it does really well. Here a Harley 165 00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:51.519 High Biscuits. They had the flowers that are dinner plate 166 00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:55.200 and we've had good luck with those in people's landscapes 167 00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:59.200 and and uh some others and salvias and whatnot. They 168 00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:02.360 did pretty well. Yeah, and roses Sharon's shruged. It does 169 00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:05.559 very well. So there are some flats they'll do well. 170 00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:08.120 Yeah. My parents actually have rows of Sharon in their 171 00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.480 garden and it's just extremely well. 172 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:12.840 They're a little messy, but they are okay. 173 00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.600 They are. That's really messy for me right now is 174 00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:20.480 my stupid pecan tree? Yeah, webworm, I have webworm. Yes, 175 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:25.200 it's been awful and now I have little tiny I 176 00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:29.200 guess it's bark. I don't know about sand size it is. 177 00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:33.200 If I park my car under my pecan tree, I 178 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.159 get little black specks that are coming off of the 179 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:40.799 tree and then it's they're sticky, So I don't know. 180 00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:46.360 What those are. Worms up there, the tank caterpillars they 181 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:49.639 eat the leaves, okay, and what's going your car is 182 00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:57.000 what it's called frats Okay. Yeah, so I have a 183 00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:58.799 very kind word for what it really is. 184 00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:03.080 So worms believing themselves on my car. That's great.

I'm Nathan Thompson, along with our guarding expert 231 00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:45.159 Larry Glass. Phones are open right now. Lines are open 232 00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:49.159 for calls toll free one eight hundred seven five nine 233 00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:52.799 three six Larry, what should we be doing in the 234 00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:54.039 garden right now? 235 00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:56.000 We're getting ready to have a rather busy time in 236 00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:58.720 the garden. Actually, yeah, despite all the stuff that falls 237 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.240 out of the sky. Anyway, if you had time to 238 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:07.320 plant trees, and you've got to consider several factors and 239 00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:11.080 climbing a tree, do you want something that's gonna drip 240 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:12.159 stuff all over your car? 241 00:13:15.159 --> 00:13:15.200 No? 242 00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.440 I did not make that choice. A tree, all right. 243 00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:21.159 It's an old tree. So we were just talking about it. 244 00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:25.000 Seventy five foots so obviously somebody way long ago decide 245 00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:26.919 to plant that. But I'm paying the consequences. 246 00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:29.840 Now, factoris you have to consider our utilities. Where's the 247 00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:31.879 water line coming into the house, where's the sewer line 248 00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:35.320 going out of the house, where's the veried electric line, 249 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:37.600 all these other things. So you want to have that 250 00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.639 located if you will, before you do that. We're going 251 00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:45.039 into a project two weeks ago and I called for 252 00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:47.720 the utility companies to come out. The gas company was 253 00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:49.360 there the next day, but it took a week and 254 00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:51.559 a half for the others to get out there. And 255 00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:53.399 I think it's because all the construction we have down 256 00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:56.960 on there. But anyway, so nowhere all your utilities are 257 00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.600 also look at your drainage patterns too. When you have 258 00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:03.279 planted tree in the ground, its root mass will tend 259 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.360 to swell the ground up a little bit. And I 260 00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:09.080 see that more often than not. Actually, even though it's 261 00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:12.840 a deep rooted tree, we don't have deep soil there 262 00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.559 for the most part, and that the mass of the 263 00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:19.080 root will actually swell the ground up and call some 264 00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:25.679 problems with drainage if you have a critical drainage issue. 265 00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:27.240 I know a lot of people in town do have 266 00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:31.799 rather critical drainage patterns in the yard. Critical meaning it's 267 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.919 just enough to let the water out when it rains, 268 00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:37.639 and if you get that backed up and it swell, 269 00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:41.320 you're going to have some pooling and potential water in 270 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:44.000 the house in some cases. So you want to make 271 00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:47.519 sure that the it's out of drainage patterns, out of 272 00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:51.840 utility right aways and stuff. And it probably gives you 273 00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:56.200 an area about the size of this headphones I plat 274 00:14:56.200 --> 00:15:00.399 the tree. Also consider on a planetal tree, some of 275 00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:05.240 them can be kind of messy, yes I'll say sweet 276 00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:08.960 gums or something. Yes, they're a mess and some others 277 00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:11.799 the Bradford parents are a little messy, you know, once 278 00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:13.600 and once a year or so they kind of fall 279 00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:17.279 apart in storms. So consider what the what the tree 280 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:21.039 is going to do. And there are several species of 281 00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:24.279 trees that are what we call dioecious, meaning male and 282 00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:28.320 female on the same or on separate plants. So for instance, 283 00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:32.840 a Chinese pistache is a pretty popular tree and it's 284 00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:37.279 it's dioecious and the males are very clean and tidy, 285 00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:43.559 where the females are just messy. 286 00:15:42.879 --> 00:15:45.000 On that open up that one. 287 00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:49.120 So you want to make sure not the plant very female. 288 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:53.360 A tree of any kind of InKo tree or a 289 00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:56.159 pistache near a swimming pool or something like that. It's 290 00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:59.759 just another mess clean up after, so keep that in mind. Also, 291 00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:01.919 what is this tree going to do as far as 292 00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:07.200 dumping stuff on the ground is concerned. So and also 293 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:09.960 when you plant a tree you wanted to work for, 294 00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:13.279 you also know the words, well, golly, what what? Why 295 00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:15.960 am I planting this thing? A lot of people like 296 00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:18.399 to shade their house in the afternoon. You can safe 297 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.080 some on the air conditioning bills quite a bit if 298 00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:24.039 the western part of the house is shielded somewhat, so 299 00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:29.039 that helps too. And and aesthetics very important. Fall colored 300 00:16:29.080 --> 00:16:32.840 people are really really after this fall colored and looking 301 00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:35.559 at the trees, fall color is probably gonna bomb house. 302 00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:36.919 Yeah, I don't think we have it. 303 00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:39.519 We do get some good rain coming up. I think 304 00:16:39.559 --> 00:16:41.559 the trees will recover a little bit and we'll have 305 00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:45.399 a good, good fall color coming into middle October. It's 306 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:46.440 just not that far away. 307 00:16:46.480 --> 00:16:48.960 Really, Yeah, it's really not right. I've seen a lot 308 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:51.840 of dead looking thieves. 309 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:54.879 I know my trees in the front yard. I personally, 310 00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:58.559 I live on Mars and I've been watering just enough 311 00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:00.759 to water the trees. The grass will come back but 312 00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:03.159 I don't want to lose my trees. It will cost 313 00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.839 me more money to have them taken down for the water. 314 00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:10.240 So I traditionally when it dries up like this, I 315 00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:13.519 prioritize the water on basically just to keep the trees going. 316 00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:17.839 So yeah, So if you're if you're maple trees for instance, 317 00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:20.359 are looking pretty good shape, and the leaves are you know, 318 00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:22.680 nice and flat, I'm not hanging down and the breeze 319 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:25.480 and all that, chances are you'll have some pretty good 320 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:28.640 fall color on them. But if your ground is really 321 00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.039 dry and you know, you can look down there and 322 00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:36.599 see the lava, all the all the foundations of the 323 00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:43.039 building and Sydney, Australia, big huge, if you have that, 324 00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:45.400 then the chances are you won't have much of any 325 00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.119 good fall color at all, even a pistache or something 326 00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.279 like that. I just really want to perform that. Well, yeah, 327 00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:53.920 because they're kind of going into sleep mode right now, 328 00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:54.799 and they. 329 00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:57.480 Just that's so unfortunate that we we've had such a 330 00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:00.440 I mean we started off pretty well, I mean we 331 00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:04.160 had the drought obviously last year, and then this year 332 00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:07.200 we started out pretty good so far, but here we 333 00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:09.559 are back in that pattern until tomorrow. Anyway. 334 00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:12.319 Yeah, I think it's a cycle. It's a ten year cycle, 335 00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:15.039 so it'll it'll go back to normal next year of 336 00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:17.039 the year after start getting a little bit more normal. 337 00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:21.200 But anyway, so fall color is an important factor, and 338 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:22.880 there are a lot of trees that really have good 339 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:26.400 fall color. The maples are the prime choice for that, 340 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.640 and the Chinese pistache also is another one that has 341 00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:30.680 excellent fall color. 342 00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:31.720 Yeah. 343 00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:35.839 So okay, also time to plant some shrubs to in 344 00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:39.440 the landscape. Bernie bush is a good one, okay. Bernie 345 00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:42.640 bush has excellent fall color. Yeah, and it's it's a 346 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:44.160 member of the want of his family, so you know 347 00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:49.240 it's tough and this one. I have several forms of 348 00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:52.799 Bernie bush. I've allowed them other than to rather large, 349 00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:55.200 one of which I had to cut back this winter 350 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:59.759 because it's too large. Ice cream truck going down. 351 00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:04.400 There, driven by our own Dave Woodell having an ice 352 00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:05.799 cream truck right to our studio. 353 00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:10.960 Anyway, the burning bush has an excellent fall color, very 354 00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:14.079 reliable too, So it's a good one to have in 355 00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:16.880 the landscape and you can do anything with them. I 356 00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:18.839 have some in tree for them, and some of them 357 00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:21.640 shrubs about this hall, so you can do a lot 358 00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:24.200 of things for them. They're pretty tough plants too, so 359 00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:26.960 and and you know, barxwoods can be planted right now. 360 00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:29.240 And Nandina's seen plant them anytime. They don't care, they 361 00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:31.240 just they just sort of hang out and do very 362 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:33.799 well good. So there's a lot of things you can 363 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:38.400 be planted in this timeframe, in between the first and 364 00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:41.400 of October in the middle of November, it's a good 365 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:44.160 time for landscape installations.
