This channel has dramatically changed my landscape. You know when you have a contractor do work at your house, they will sometimes put a small sign in your yard advertising their work? Well I feel like I should put a sign in my yard that reads, Landscape by Laura of Garden Answer. 😊

T Miller The best question I get is..."Who does your gardening?" My answer..."I DO!" Watching Laura has just fueled my already happy passion.

I'm the exact same. I truly cannot go out to my front yard anymore without someone stopping to chat about landscaping with me. My thoughts toward plants have dramatically changed over the last two years of watching, and it's 100% due to this channel. So I am down for a landscape sign too. :-) Etsy anyone?

I understand where you are coming from Laura. Our kiddos are so perceptive of people and can sense kindness and love in others. ❤
When I hear you talk about gardening, I get inspired! Thank you very much.
Excellent as always. I learn so much from your videos. Thank you for this information on flowers that do not require dead heading.
Thank you for sharing such spot-on petunia growing and maintenance; much appreciated.
Really appreciated these care tips! Best blooms ever !
love petunia (supertunias) we lived in Germany for 3 years thats's how I fell in love with them. Every summer I look forward to planting them. They are gorgeous once established.
I just stopped by my local garden store and bought four of these. Looking forward my rail baskets this year.
Amazed how they sometimes make it through winter here in upstate SC. Great plants
i didn't like these type of flowers as much but watching this great care video on supertunias makes me want to get some supertunias and give them a try thank you :)
Thanks for the tips I used them for the first time this year and I just spent 2 hours dead heading all of them yesterday!!! So to know I do not need to do that is extremely helpful!!! Thanks for all your videos! I get the best compliments on my landscaping and I always refer people to your channel!
I am so happy I found this on my iPad as a senior I enjoy hearing new varieties of plants a new containers these containers sounds wonderful I’m going to go out to my garden store and start searching for them tomorrow
Just bought my first supertunias because of watching your videos. Literally you are such a gardening inspiration. Thank you!
My first year of using them in hanging baskets and I am LOVING them!!!! 😍👍. Used to always use the waves, but not anymore. 😄😄😄
I watch your video last year about supertunias and it was a great success especially being my first time. Thank you for the tips.
I absolutely love your videos they have helped me so much!!! Maybe you could do other videos inside so when it is winter in illinois I can still watch you
Fantastic flowers! Tried them this year and my yard is super colorful, baskets overflowing with color. It was hard to find a nursery that carried them though. Now that I know where, I'll be there earlier next spring because they sold quickly. Thanks for the tips and I look forward to your videos. Great job, keep them coming.
I absolutely adore Supertunias. Ever since I started watching you last year & you were showing the different colors & varieties of Supertunias & the sweet little Super Bells i have had nothing but them in my pots. I only buy the brand Proven Winners because the others that ive bought just didn’t do well and needed so much more attention.i have some right now that is from last year that made it through the winter & even snow. They are so full , in fact i really need to trim one of my baskets because it has gotten so big and its really got a lot of trainings making it too heavy for its branches. Thank you for sharing your time & knowledge with all us gardeners. I for one really appreciate it. From a fan in Covington Louisiana.
The supertunias are gorgeous , I’ve planted some before and yes they do love love the sun 🌞 but these beauties could also attract caterpillars 🐛 and the caterpillars prevent them from Reblooming . It’s happened to me many times so hit them with a BT captains Jack dead bug spray . You’ll see beautiful blooms again. It’s because of Garden Answer I’ve gained experience and learned so much. Enjoy gardening 👩🌾
I just started watching you two weeks now and I'm hooked 😊.........Very helpful information
Thanks for the tip on supertunias. I’ll have to try them.
thanks for the tips! I've just grown what I know as "regular" petunias. looks like it's time to try something new 😊

Love super petunias! TFS!
I grow petunias EVERYWHERE in the summer, and the last two summers I have only used Proven Winners. Low Maintenance, and happy plants. They make me smile every single day. (Super belles too!)
I tried Supertunia bubblegum last year n it really grew so well n fast. Thanks to Laura, I bought a lot of PW supertunia although there are other brands with similar flowers. Maybe PW is a little bit more expensive than others, but Laura’s garden has proven the brand so well that it gives me confidence. My garden stores, though, don’t have varieties of supertunias. :(
love Petunia's but always hated the deadheading. you just sold me on the supertunias and then I go out and buy some this weekend thanks
I just bought 14 different kinds of these from PW and this will be my testimony in 2021. Can't wait for them to do their thing.
After watching your videos, I went on the hunt for the Supertunias. I have able to find a few so I picked up four Bubble Gums to give them a try. I put them in a couple of smallish planters and they are amazing. They have filled in the pot and is starting to spill over the sides. I was also able to find a single lonely diamond frost and used it in a fairy garden. I am so pleased with the results. I definitely will be on the lookout for more Proven Winners next year. Thanks for sharing your amazing garden and for all the tips that you offer.

You can order direct from Proven Winners (maybe for next year?), and get any type you'd want. :-) My mind is failing me on the names, but I purchased the deep purple and the purple/green varieties this way in the spring and they are just now going crazy here in the PNW.
ive been loving ur channel laura..

Finally potted my first supertunias and superbells !! SoCal desert, specifically Palm Springs area, so we get suuuuupper hot!! I know you say your area is hot, but we do not cool off in the pm at all come summer (which btw, it’s spring, but we only have two seasons.. summer and “not summer” which is gorgeous but like nothing else). I really hope these work and I’m going to try and fertilize and use every tip you give. I’d love to have these beautiful flower be nice and full this summer. Wish me luck!
excellent information Laura!
Thanks to you, I’m sold! Last year I became a subscriber to Proven winners & bought 12 4 quart containers & placed in 30” baskets braced on my fence. OMG… BUBBLEGUM, ROYAL VELVET & Picasso! Lovely. I did as you said & did the slow release & the water solvable too. Ordering triple amounts for spring 2022!
I've bought the three supertunias in front of you the last three years. Bubblegum is pretty easy to find, but I have gone an hour and a half out of my way to find the other two. I love them so much. You are a good spokesperson for Proven Winners because now I look for their plants. Unfortunately, they aren't as attainable as I would like. I didn't know until you told us this year that supertunias don't have to be dead headed. So now that's all I will buy. Love your videos.

Same problem finding any PW plants.
I grew my 1st last year of a pinkish rose. Never to disappoint. This year I have 2 bubble gums, all in your video here + yellow to white with yellow ctrs to just added one of most Gorgeous dark purple to wine color. I absolutely love these. The one last year bloomed all summer to It was one of my Favorites. It could of been in a larger pot. I just finished 1 big planter today with Gorgeous thriller of Gorgeous magneta colored dianthus with this dark burgundy supertunia, some coleus of pink green etc and the silver foliage also a Favorite as coleus. I actually rooted 3 of several coleus, sweet potato vine that are so loaded with roots. Wish I'd known could root before letting several go. I get most all my ideas from you. As you mentioned one coleus that won awards 1 of best so on In new video of annuals. The burgundy with some lime I think. I do have that one rooted to just bought 2 more 8 packs mixed. Orderd some of new pink explosions and under the sea bone fish. Want more. Recently subscribed to your growing group. I've been following you and absolutely love all you do to create such beauty. Just watched video last week of you and Erin as he did his 1st containers. So loved all. You are such an Inspiration so sweet I just LOVE Watching you. Following alone to do some amazing Gorgeous containers etc. Thank you Laura for all your inspiration & Gorgeous plants. Learning a lot from you. Now going into my 4th year. 💐🦋
Laura you have convinced me to try PW this year. my first year with annuals. wish me luck...so far so good. I picked up 15 of these for my landscape bed.

Best of luck to you Ladies. Have a Happy growing season! I did the aloha combination this year.
THANKS! I had not planted petunias in a few years just because of the maintenance. I will try a couple of pots this year : )
Just lucked out and found a ton of supertunias at lowes for 0.75$. Got a picasso, royal velvet, and a lemoncello or bordeaux (don't know for sure both of the plant tags were in the pot). Such a score and I have been dying to grow these since I've seen all of your beautiful containers
I used to think that Petunias were old lady plants, as they were all that the oldies asked for at the nursery in which I worked. Apart from the fact that I had never seen them doing overly well in our sub tropical climate. But seeing your beautiful supertunias has caused me to have a change of heart. Only problem is that in the part of Australia where I live there are no Proven Winners suppliers. So sad. So I will have to try out some other types and see how I go.
Supertunia honey is my fave!! 💕
Love your tips and gardening style. I feel guilty spending more money this year then ever on plants but, my yard is looking more beautiful.

Learned from you last year. I like PW the best. Thanks for advice.
You're simply amazzing girl. Thanks
Hi Laura! inspired by you I browsed the PW site for ideas and inspiration, even though i don't live in the US and therefore can't get their plants. And I found the 'Blue my Mind' Evolvulus, I use other Evolvulus and 'Diamond Frost' Euphorbia here for my summer plantings and love them both, they look great together and with some Artemisia or Dusty Miller. I thought you might enjoy the combo too.
I bought a Silverberry Supertunia Vesta! Wish me luck love these!💚
I just went and bought some supertunias to try out!
Enjoying you from Michigan
Whaaatt!!! no dead heading? Ive been dead heading my supertunias all this time(which i hate so much). I just cant believe no one told me...thank you so much, i love you forever!!!

That's why I shifted to supertunias because I don't need to deadhead them unlike the regular petunias.
i met someone that looked just like you a few days ago! literally thought it was you but obvi it was not, since it was the lady training me for my new job at a grocery store lol.
Thank you for sharing your plants & flowers & gardening knowledge with us! I have learned so much from your videos😀 You really have inspired me! Do you have any houseplants other than your beautiful African violets & gorgeous succulents?? Tracey🌸
Thanks for clarifying the supertunia dead heading... great for color and low maintnance for my parents 8)
The winter of 2020 was so mild. I have three petunia plants that survived the winter and they are already hugh! I took cuttings and doubled the number of plants and have more in starting mix.
Perfect timing, 🤗 just bought some today. Can't wait to see mine thrive, and fill me with joy when I came home.
Your garden center is amazing. You get plants from there and they already look fantastic. The nurseries I go to, they look small, anemic and like they're on their way out.

KiraiBK I was also confused and sorta let down when I saw the plants I would bring home compared to the ones that she would show in videos... but I think since she's sponsored by PW's either they send her more mature plants that they have been fertilizing, or maybe she lets them grown in the pot for awhile so they are looking their best by video time. I'm just guessing!

Chelsea McBride I can assure you that she doesn't do any tricks to make the plants look as healthy as they are before filming. Her parents nursery is amazing. The plants are all healthy and well-loved. I noticed that family owned nurseries in my town also have robust and mind-blowing plants like Laura's family (otherwise they wouldn't sell very well). When I shop at big box stores like Lowe's and Home Depot, the plants aren't as exciting and healthy. Anyway, I got my first order from Proven Winner's and was blown away....picture perfect plants!

T Miller I only shop at locally owned nurseries and the plants don't look at all like they do in this video. Saying that she (or PW's) uses fertilizer or simply lets the plants grow longer before she films a video is not a "trick"... I mean I'm pretty sure everyone knows to use fertilizer and that plants grow bigger overtime (duh!). I know that all I would need to do is bring my plants home, put them in a sunny spot, water & fertilize for a couple weeks, and BAM, my plants would look just like Lauras.
My favorite!!!

Laura, this little tutorial was amazing. I learn something new each time. Thank you. What’s common sense to you is not common to us all so thank you. I love Supertuniss and usually buy proven Winners. Now, I really look for them.
PW really is a great brand! Well worth the money
Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video. I love petunia. Although the dead heading is what kills me. I am going to look at Lowes and Home Depot for the "Supertunias" . Blessings to you from Texas

I agree I only buy the PW petunias and annuals all the other ones are not worth my time and especially not my money I look forward to every summer to planting my petunias I live in Tampa Florida and my baskets are beautiful I also plant my thyme with them.
Just found at our Canadian tire greenhouse. First time trying them.
You forgot to talk about the bug worms in this video. I know you have another video that does talk about it and i thank YOU for doing that!!
Supertunias are the bomb.
My favorite flower Suoertunia bubblegum is my very favorite flower.❤️
Excellent. I was wondering if I had to deadhead them
Yess...beauty flower with beauty person..🤗
Thanks so much for your information on Supertunias and not having to deadhead them, I didn't know that and that was my problem every summer... "the other petunia brand" is usually what I'd buy and they were pretty and healthy at the begining but later they looked ragged and oh my gosh it was a pain to continually deadhead them ..urghh! Yep that will be my choice next year and also the 2 types of fertilizers. I'm happy now :) ! Huggs and blessing . p.s. I love seeing that cutie Dexter make cameo appearances, he makes me smile. I have 3 little stinkers myself!! Anna

aldl55 I stopped buying petunias. I would spend 30 minutes every day deadheading the hanging baskets. UGH! I am excited to give these a try. A little deadheading is OK with me, but old petunia types where way too demanding.
Woot woot!
Yes these are AMAZING! Any suggestions on how to collect supertunia seeds? Or are they designed not to put out seeds?
I think I’m going to plant some in the grown
I would LOVE to be able to fill my pots and yards with PW, but I can't find them in my area!! Home Depot says they carry them but mine doesn't. I'm SO frustrated!!!! These truly are the BEST plants. I found about 10 pots of PW super bells at Wal Mart, but other than that....I'm out of luck I guess. Love, these videos Laura. You've made me love gardening and I never thought I would say that!
I loved the petunias in your garden so I got excited to try them myself this year! I'm experiencing an issue where they are growing much bigger than I had planned. Should I leave/trim them or can I transplant them?
I keep watching this. Its the end of March and I can't find any. When do they come out?
Hello!! Can these be grown in window boxes?! I'm new to gardening and really wanted to start with a low maintenance flower in a pot/box. I purchased a 4ft long window box and I have no clue how many supertunias I can plant in 1 box.. I am soooooo glad I found your channel!!
I use these every year every where
I would love for PW to supply to my garden center in the uk, we get the buddlieas which just started this year but for some reason they dont provide us with anything else.
, I am new plant mom. Never had a green thumb but I get to have fun and give this awhirl 😊😊😊how to I maintain them when it becomes cold in the winter and fall.
Do you trim those that you plant in the ground or only baskets?
You forgot to mention that they smell incredible too ;)

I had a great show of them last year especially Bubblegun , I left them over winter, and the tops dried of and now I have collected a lot of seed, which are very small. Will they germanite easily.
I just put them in my new window boxes, I was looking for help an info about them.
I'm in a zone 3 (I think I read the map right) and we are already in the triple digits for this summer tomorrow's expected high 109, the next day 110, so I was wondering how would these plants hold up if at all? in the ground or a pot.
Its winter 2022 and those supertunias are still alive after deep freeze and snow. Honest. And the cuttings I took are also still alive where I left them. Some I pulled out because they over grew the other plants in the bed.
Love Proven Winners. Laura, do you have any plans for trellis or vining plants?
Laura, I planted the vista bubblegum in the ground this year. Do I need to deadhead these? Also do I need to trim them mid season?
Can't find a place to ask you a question but I love your videos and I'm so envious of your gardens I wish I was there to do free labor lol My question I'm making raised flower beds two and a half by 5 ft 4 in tall. Gladiolus will be near the house and the outside of the box the inside near the walkway and the front of the box by the road will have I'm hoping tulips which don't need to be dug up. So as the tulips are cut back and turning yellow I'm hoping the gladiolas will start to grow then I will cut back the tulips and clean it up and my plan was to plant wave petunias or some other plant on top but I heard that tulip bulbs should not be watered during the summer what should I do
please do a video on Supertunia® Picasso in Purple it is such a eye catcher for a Supertunia and it has two of your favorite colors with a purple and green tip flower

My hanging basket of supertunias has lost all the blossoms. What can I do? Trim the dead stuff and give it a good haircut? Lots of brown dead stuff is underneath My flowers are much smaller than those pictured in the video They are the size of violets
when do you fertilize when using Miracle grow garden soil with fertilizer in it? This has me befuddled. we also mixed in Miracle Peat moss to the MG mix. I was told by a lical garden center that I made the soil too dense and that my plants will not do well. Also I was watering too much.. Thank you. So hope you will read this question. Kim
I spent the money this year and put all proven winners in my front yard and regular Menards petunias in my back yard. Well, my backyard looks amazing and ALL of the supertunias in the front did not grow and are looking horrid. Super disapointed. I have to add that the superbenas are doing fantastic. I got the white and purple ones in your vids. Flower explosion.
What’s the name of the purple one? Great video!!
is Calibrachoa a petunia? I'd appreciate some tips for these ones(lol). I love them. Does Proven Winners offer them?
wish our Lowes sold supertunia bubblegum, theyre very short on all Proven Winners
I wish we could get these in ireland, the only plants from proven winners at the garden centre I work at are buddlejas
