Today I am going to get a project checked off the to-do list that I have known I’ve needed to do since the end of the summer. I am moving my Invincibelle ‘Ruby’ hydrangeas to a shadier location and replacing them with the new Limelight ‘Prime’ hydrangea. Join me as I show you how easy it is to transplant the ‘Ruby’ hydrangeas to their new home!

Just a quick video for y’all regarding my winter planted Sabal minor. I do NOT recommend that you plant minor or any Palm, or marginally hardy plant/ hardy tropical during the winter, however December was warm, so I decided to plant it against the South Wall, and then January and February were a bit of karma with single digits & negative temperatures. The snow was the saving Grace. January even turned most of the bamboos (Not buried under snow) brown.
That does not mean that you can’t acquire these plants during winter, but just keep them dormant in your garage or other cool space.
This part of the garden is facing south, but in full shade underneath the bananas during summertime. So it will not get sun really at all for much of the summer once the bananas grow up. It’ll be interesting to see what this palm does long-term. Sabal minor is probably best as a foundation plant in zone 6a, facing East or South, in my opinion, however Sabal ‘McCurtain’ might be an exception to that. Definitely still protect for the first 3 to 5 years while they’re giant taproot is forming. That said once a Sabal has established don’t try to transplant it because you’ll kill it. Once these palms have some fan shaped leaves, and I’ve been growing them in the ground for a few years I’ll give them a dedicated “feature length” video.

Anyway, I’ll have more videos to come that are feature length. Thanks for watching!
