Hello friends welcome to Gardening with Creekside we are going to do another little bit of a nursery
tour this week because there's just so many Fantastic things that we want to share with
you so remember we are Creekside Nursery in Dallas North Carolina just west of Charlotte we are open
Wednesday through Saturday nine to three we would love to see you um okay so you remember just a
couple of days ago we did a video talking about how hoselink came and did a photo shoot here at
the house and they did the solar lights and it was absolutely gorgeous and we love them we've also
partnered with hoselink with a little bit of kind of a palette program where we are featuring their
hose reels here at the nursery so when you sweep people come to the nursery you can actually touch
the hose reel you can see what they look like you can see the two different colors that they offer
you can see that what a 50 foot reel looks like and what an 82 foot reel looks like you can take
them into your hands and you can pull them out and you can say oh well that was really easy now how
does it spray so then you can like turn it on and go oh all right so this is a very Hands-On program
then you're like what does it really retract does this thing really work and then you can go
oh my goodness yes it does so when you come here to the nursery we have these here hose link wants
you to touch and feel them they want to see with your hands right and really get a feel for what
they are like then when you're here we're going to have um whether you are here and you're touching
them or you're watching them online and you've always been thinking do I want to do one do I
not want to do one here is the link if you click on the link is in the video description I'll also
have it pinned at the comments at the top you can use that link and you can order your own
hose reel whether you want like the charcoal or the cream you need a 50 foot or an 82 foot and
if you use the code Creekside you get ten dollars off your order so for those folks who are coming
to the nursery we want you to come and use these feel free to water anything that you want you can
actually pull this 82 foot reel out interestingly enough because when we were here for the um uh
the photo shoot so we took this reel right this 82 foot reel and pulled it and it went all the way up
to the greenhouse and inside the greenhouse near where the chick charms are so it will go a long
way it is fantastic all right so click on the link in the video description and the comments to order
yours hose reel or the solar lights whatever it is and then use the code Creekside when you check out
and you get ten dollars off any order all right so there is that super excited to work with hoselink
Aqua pots we still have a beautiful selection of Aqua pots remember Aqua
pots are the self-watering containers from Proven Winners we have used these for years
and they work really really well especially with our long growing season right we can plant
a container in April and it can go all the way through November until a first hard freeze with
your annuals right so by July and August if you if you know then you know right when the
summer heat hits you could have to water a container especially like this size you know
twice a day because it is that self-watering container you're only filling it up once a week
plants love it it does really well whether you're going to do it in full sun or shade
somewhere in between and they come in a range of styles so whether you like the classic white
you want to have a little bit more of a little uh I don't know what do you call this a style
to it right with a lip antique yes antique white but something a little more Jazzy right you don't
want to go with bold cobalt blue but you need a little something something so this is a great one
or if you are like me and you love cobalt blue then these are wonderful these are what they
call like the volcanic so it's part they have the volcanic on the top and it kind of dribbles down
each one of these is handmade in Vietnam so they are unique and different for example over here
with the volcanic on milky blue you will see that you will have some variations in them whether it
is a little bit of a color variation between them or if it's how the volcanic is dripping down they
will all be a little bit different and unique that what is what makes them just so much fun and so
fantastic so we do have the aqua pots available still we've got plenty of them for you to choose
from so when you're coming this is a great great thing and they make great gifts so if you have
Father's Day is coming up and maybe you have a fella in your life that loves to Garden this
would be a great great gift for them so lots of different styles and colors available to
you that you can shop now let's see let's go to the greenhouse because we have some new annuals
available we were kind of growing a second round of annuals and they are ready we brought them down
this week and people were already like picking them up and having a grand old time with them
so let's see they're on the outside all right I know look at this like look at this whole
thing right here like all of that yeah so we have mangales mangales are such a fun fun plant last
year was our first year doing them mangavis come from Walters Gardens This was um really kind of
is a cross between an agave and a manfreda so what it gives you is the look of a succulent right but
they are I think about the easiest things to grow because they love water the more water you give
them the faster they grow so typically we think of Agaves as they want it really dry they don't
grow when you give them a lot of water these do and they get nice and big when you're this size
they make great little companion Planters almost like if you did like the chick charms you can
mix those in together you can actually even take the mangaves and add them in with annuals because
it's just a really fun neat texture so we have if you've got mangales last year these are all
different mangalis so we did one collection last year a different collection this year
artist blue add your atom this is our our first year growing this plant and dear Heaven stabezi
y'all this is the best plant if you remember we planted them underneath the fountain at the house
we did it with some like mini supertunion mini Vista Yellow and some snow princess
these things are rocking out they look fantastic naturally have a really nice tight Habit to them
beautiful blue color as they grow they hide the old blooms and they have the fresh blooms so you
never see like the old spent blooms right there's a beautiful nice compact plant this is going to be
an annual for us it is full to part sun and when you can plant it in groups when I say Mass it just
means more than one right Mass could be two Mass could be three Mass could be 30 right so you it
is very pretty with the yellow because these two colors really complement each other this is lemon
tart luscious lemon tarte Lantana this is what we planted in Mass at the house your Lantana is going
to be taller so if you put the lantana in the back and then you put that artist blue in front
oh my goodness you want to talk about making an instant impact gorgeous you could even do this in
a container grab one of those Aqua pots put these together and they would be beautiful if you have
shade we got you covered don't think oh my gosh I have shade I can't have flowers in color no yes
you can these are the rockapuco double impatience beautiful shade loving annuals nice and mounded
beautiful color we've also got some sun patients down here these are sun patients these are some of
the um the same varieties that I've been using this year gorgeous Deep Purple the blush pink
Surefire begonias I'm telling you y'all and if you've I've noticed um not that this means
anything but uh other uh like Gardener folks like influencers whatever you want to call people tons
of people are using surefires this year right I have seen them used across the board all across
the United States different people different climates are using tons of surefires because they
are amazing I have loved them for years and years we have used them tons I'm using them currently in
my garden in Mass Surefire begonias are the way to go I also have Dragon Wing begonias these are you
know your traditional shade loving begonias that are nice and draping so got those now
this is some of the fresh stuff that we have beautiful um coleus this is if you're familiar
with the Main Street series Main Street is a series of coleus very very popular because it
is a great Coleus and they're named all of them are named after famous streets so you have Rodeo
Drive you have Charters Street you have Orchard Road so they come with all these different names
of streets right and so you get all these gorgeous colors and different textures and
so it's just really fun coleus I'm a huge fan of coleus because they are just so easy so versatile
bring such great color and height usually they're going to be as taller right a little bit bigger
presence gorgeous fresh coleus in here so we have those available we also have um some new verbena
so verbena has always especially this year has been really really popular really nice colors
here we have like a really nice Deep Purple this is the empress Flair violet blue now I know like
my kids are like Mama that is not blue but in the Horticultural World there you go so a really nice
deep deep color on that um will be a fantastic addition and they're small right instead of right
now so they're very easy to put in containers they're a lot easier maybe to put in the ground
because sometimes when plants get too big right I mean they're they could be a little cumbersome
cool looking ones outside Jerry says so off we go look at this absolutely look at this so
the left I mean yes so we have um but look at this look how that nice it has a really
nice big Petal on it really beautiful now they are a little wet when we got rain last night
and then I don't know if the irrigation was on so they're a little damp right now and then we have
got the empress layer dark red charm really nice white eye with that red on the outside
um and then look at that isn't that gorgeous so you can use these in the landscape you can
use them in the containers extremely versatile and then you have one here that is more like
a pinwheel right has that little bit it's not quite a pure white has a little bit of
the pink and then that nice really rich deep red color to it makes a nice big statement something
fun something different and then we've got a lot of different fun caliber covers available
to you right so these caliber koas whether you're looking for more of a red look at that
again we're we're a little water Laden right here um a nice red with a yellow throat to it
nice healthy happy plants we've got light pink we've got yellow we have a nice look at
this sweet pink oh nice big Bloom on that with that pink again with that nice yellow throat
if you don't want pink maybe you want to do a little bit of purple and lavender we've got that
also so lots of new ideas as far as plants caliber coasters verbenas and then portulaca so I really
wish it's early in the morning and that's the downside of doing the video early in the morning
is that the portulaca is not open so you're just gonna have to take my word for it we were in the
greenhouse uh two days ago before we brought this down and it was hot and it was like I don't know
two o'clock in the afternoon so it was really sunny the blooms on this portulaca massive I I
mean they were at least the size of a quarter they were really nice if you're familiar with portulaca
this is the cupcake series and the cupcake Series has massive blooms on it big bold colors so there
is like a raspberry there is a yellow the mango zest what was the um the one that was so so cool
so cool I can't even talk y'all so exciting but there was it was the orange and it was like a
sunset or something color so portulaca will open and close with the Sun at night sun goes down they
close up sun gets on them and man they just pop open these are great pollinator attractors they
do great in the landscape in the container you can tell that they have a low Habit to them so
they're low and if you put them in a container then they Trail over so just extremely versatile
tend to be a lot more drought tolerant because they are in that Sedum type family so they have
kind of thick waxy leaves that hold on to the water portulaca great great addition if you have
not done portulaca you need to do it if you have a really sunny area that you struggle with and
you want to do a hanging basket they make gorgeous hanging baskets so lots of great options available
to you and then of course all the perennials right I mean the Shasta daisies are in bloom
everybody is just kind of popping out it is a great time to be a gardener in in the South for
sure June is wonderful hanging baskets we've got beautiful I'm going to hit those really quick so
supertunion mini Vista white look at that again it's with the water but beautiful beautiful color
hanging basket or if you wanted to put in a container you could do that if it's a petunia
it can go straight in the ground take it out of the hanging basket put it in the ground that's one
of my favorite things to do with the supertunia Vista bubble gum so this is bubble gum we've got
Jazz Berry these make great instant impact in the landscape if you want to do a little bit of
a recipe like if you want to do something switch it up and switch with some color then this one has
let's see uh trying to show you quote the best one the mini Vista white mini Vista Indigo and then
Violet stars in here so they've got those and then ones with Bordeaux all sorts of fun things so lots
of stuff happening here around Creekside Nursery remember we would love to see you Wednesday
