Thanks Kris, good guidance.

Nice to see not the usual suspects..I'm not particularly a palm man but the one you showed is tempting. Thank you

Love that borinda - one of the highlights of your garden IMHO.

Thanks. It's a great plant. I'll be digging it up and dividing in spring

Nice choices Kris and top work with the editing / overlayed footage too 👍

Thanks George.

Lovely garden, thanks for the great tips!

I agree with the ginger you selected I have it in my garden and it is truly a no maintenance plant and does great in the ground over winter

Yes it's a fantastic plant.

i'd love a video on fun plants which can take -20C. that's what i have to deal with some years. i will definitely get palms and some other less than hardy stuff, but i'll have to protect it a whole lot over winter

I will have to try the ginger you mentioned, I started growing Cautleya spicata robusta this year and already want more ginger, but wasn't sure about hardiness of some of the Hedychiums.

It's reliably hardy to minus 10 which should be fine for most gardens

I love the Amicia Zygomeris, but have to say Ive purchsed it twice and both times its not made it though the winter wich is a shame.

Could you please tell me where you purchased the ameesia zagamaris I cannot find it anywhere

Kris, a question about the hedychium forrestii. I planted two out this year. Would you treat it like a bulb, let the foliage die back completely so the goodness returns back to the rhizome? Secondly, I was planning to leave all the brown and dead foliage in place to act as a mulch over winter.

Yes it's starts going yellow after flowering and will go to mush after the first frosts. The old stems quite often come away from the rhizomes but you could leave the old stems over them if you wish.

Hey Kris love your gaden. Was wondering if you have the Amicia,Borinda cs1046 and Hedychium for sale please thanks.

Are there other kinds of clumping bamboos that get that tall? I'd love a B1046 but they are like gold dust!

There are other Borindas that get that tall and Fargesia robusta gets close at over 3m
