Hello friends welcome to Gardening with Creekside I am Jenny and welcome to our weekly nursery
update we got some shrubs in this morning Jerry and I were up before the sun was to take delivery
of some gorgeous shrubs two of which I have on either hip we have Proven Winners 'Sprinter' boxwood
if you've been around creekside for any amount of time you know how much we love this plant
it is fantastic it will grow two to four feet two to four tall and wide hearty and zones I want to
say five to nine but don't quote me on that it's a great evergreen resistant to the boxwood blight
it is a fast grower just really easy you can shape it to whatever size you want and it's
just a great great plant so that is on this hip now moving on to over here is a brand new one
from Southern Living this is actually a magnolia this is 'Stellar Ruby' and it is a banana shrub
banana tree one of those what it does and how it got that name is that it will produce these
gorgeous flowers that smell like ripe bananas now I know you're like Jenny they don't really don't
smell like bananas but yes they do Southern Living sent us a sample late middle of summer
and so we got a couple of blooms off of it before the season ended and it did it smells just like a
banana this is an evergreen it is not it does not look like a magnolia what we traditionally think
of as magnolia but it'll be a great size small tree in that 10 foot range it's a relatively fast
grower if you want to of course if you want to grow into that tree you don't prune it very much
I suppose you could keep it as a large shrub but this is a great one so we have talked about this a
couple of times before and I know I have several people who have expressed some interest in it
so the wholesale nursery that we ordered from had some of these so we grabbed up what we could they
only had we're only able to give us I think like 15 of them so obviously quantities are limited so
if you are local and would like to get a 'Stellar Ruby' then come to the nursery this weekend because
this weekend will be the last weekend we are open on regular hours for 2020. we've got some
projects to do and some plants to grow for y'all for next spring so we are going to kind
of shut down because you know it is the middle of December and then January February so these
are some beautiful ones and my arms are going to sleep so I'm going to put them down we also got um
yeah it was fun when we got took delivery of this the truck driver said he was going to be
here at 6 30. he took a wrong turn so he didn't get here till 7 which actually worked out great
because then it wasn't dark anymore but it was only you know it was a balmy 28 degrees out here
and these pots were frozen so therefore we were frozen when we were done but they are happy plants
this whole row of Proven Winner's pots is their Chiffon series of Roses of Sharon so we've talked
about these numerous numerous times these are not any kind of new plants for us we have the Magenta
we have the White, Jerry can you show the tags so we've got the Magenta which is just this was new
this year which was just a gorgeous raspberry color then we have the White which of course
you know if you remember is growing we planted in the patio so then we come down here and then
the Blue which is a beautiful shade of a real nice pale blue has a little bit of a purple hint to it
it is fantastic and then this is a new one for us that we have not carried is the Pink so Pink
Chiffon is a nice pale pink just a beautiful soft pink remember these Roses of Sharon will get to
be pretty tall I mean like eight to ten feet tall about four feet wide that's why I put my
White one on the corner edge of the bed corner of the house because it'll anchor that spot so
we have got these you can come grab these of course we still have camellias they are um
the sesanquas are still blooming we have the October Magic Ruby here they are still blooming
they are doing well we've got rose we've got some Orchids so great camellias from the Southern
Living and come over here remember we talked about this in the camellia video but those are
the sasanquas smaller leaves and then they bloom earlier over here we have some japonicas
with a cedar tree that has fallen down on top of them it has gotten cold and windy so we'll
pop her back up but these are japonicas and this is this variety right here is 'White by the Gate'
and I think there's still a bloom in here so Jerry it's a bit of an older bloom but look at that
gorgeous fat white beautiful bloom and you can see that these plants are absolutely covered in buds
so if you're looking for a pure white camellia that will get of some good height I want to
say this is again in that 8 to 10-foot range then the 'White by the Gate' would be a great one to add
to your collection and in your garden this does need some filtered sun this is not going to
be a full sun plant if you have filtered sun like under pine trees or it gets morning sun
and afternoon shade then she would do great and moving on in here we pulled out some of Chris's
stained glass these are ones that I just love these are part of his garden stakes and so you
just simply just take the little metal rod and then they um they might be frozen here we go
then they just slide on and off they have a little tube in the back that he has soldered on there
and then they just slide onto the garden stake so you can have a single one you could
do a collection but those are available so come get these make great, great Christmas gifts love
these and then as far as the Bottle Benders go and the wind chimes we've got tons of minis left
minis make wonderful Christmas presents because they're they're really you can kind of customize
them to whoever you're going to give it to what is their interest do you have a fisherman in your
life do you have someone who loves hummingbirds looking for some good old southern hospitality
with the pineapple or a beach lover, I mean motorcycle rider cat lover I mean you name
it there is a mini wind chime to go for that occasion so these are available we have a
whole nother wall still available of those the Bottle Benders does have the pine knots so they
are busy making some more three strands of course you've got Jennifer's beautiful
hand burned Christmas ornaments these are all handmade she burns these and just does an amazing
job so we have these if you're looking for a little Christmas ornament for the year can't go
wrong with that um bulbs we still got people come getting bulbs and then more of Chris's things the
Christmas ornaments I mean just precious right I mean you've got the snowmen and the mittens
and Santa and Christmas trees and the angels crosses these are the little mini garden stakes
which I love so it's the same idea as the big ones outside but it's just the little tiny ones and you
can just put them on a little small steak and put them in like flour can like flower pots and those
kinds of things they make great gifts I've been eyeballing some of those for myself more of his
stained glass just beautiful things the nativities the little standing angels all sorts of things
more wall you have a deer hunter in your life there you go mermaid lovers
bee lovers honey bees I mean they're really Bottle Benders does an amazing job of making
minis just for every occasion now AquaPots we still have obviously AquaPots and we're going
to have AquaPots now until springtime that was the idea we hope we're going to have AquaPots
until the springtime because if not we're going to be in trouble but we just we're going to invite
you to behind the barn um because just yesterday it was late yesterday afternoon
we got in another delivery of AquaPots so we got some of the colors that we were missing
they were on the order they just were you know delayed including and they're hard to
see because obviously they're still wrapped up in their plastic um I think this might be a little
bit easier over here to see Jerry this is the volcanic on milky blue oh he's handed me a knife
so you really can see him um the volcanic on milky blue this was by far our most popular um
color last year because they are just absolutely exquisite just gorgeous so I'm
not going to take the whole palette apart I'm going to get in here so that you can
see so why they call it volcanic or milky blue is you have that volcanic finish
and then this is that smooth milky blue now you'll notice some of them are like really that turquoise
and then down here Jerry can you see where it's got more of the blue coloring in it so because these are
handmade they are in Vietnam they um each one may have a slightly different finish especially
on this volcanic milky blue that we noticed last year there can be a lot of neat different colors
in there and just absolutely gorgeous we have those we got the techno blue
got two techno blues so that's that great cobalt blue color and then the techno so you
got that great cobalt blue and then the techno because it has the ridges and the lines in it
so these are here I think we got more matte blacks techno matte blacks anyway so if you ordered
and have pre-ordered these AquaPots and and we will go ahead and we'll be calling
you in the coming days to let you know that they are here that you can come get them
