HortTube with Jim Putnam Can you do a follow up on the peonies that you grew on the container? Thanks!!!

This is so great. I planted a peony two years ago and it never has done well. I have horrible rocky clay soil here in Georgia. I just thought about digging it up and potting it. Great to know that was a good idea!

Beautiful!! I got out and planted a tree form vanilla strawberry hydrangea yesterday. Cant wait to see what it looks like in the landscape.

Thank you so much for the reply.... Also I have a gas meter over there too but if they are not invasive I should be good... Awesome channel!!

Love your videos. Thank you

Beautiful

I love them , i planted them last fall

I just planted a bi colored Camellia in a big pot for the back deck. Soooo beautiful. 🏵🌸

I'm sure that was great. Our mountains here in North Carolina are covered in giant stands of them.

I am in zone 9a wish me luck on my peonies 😂 I’m trying to get those gorgeous blooms. Your video helped me feel better about what I just winged (I saw this video AFTER I planted).

This weekend it's going to be so nice here in Virginia. I will be working on my raised vegetable garden. We just moved in a brand new house and I have no landscaping. It's kind of sad and a bit overwhelming. I left years and years of plants behind at my old house 😑 but I have been watching so many KZread videos to help get me inspired. thanks for your video 😉

Thanks for watching. I started completely over here last year after pulling out twenty year old plants. It's amazing how a little at the time adds up.

I couldn’t agree more. In a new home in Va as well and planning our new landscaping. Had plenty of 20+ yr old plant material to appreciate at our last house, so looking forward to a new canvas. Thanks for the no nonsense approach in your videos Jim.

not realistic for everyone, but id probably rent a moving truck and bring just about everything that fit, including some of my soil. lol

Any update on the peonies?

Hey Jim. How would you transplant them in clay soil? The same way with potting soil or with perlite? Any soil conditioning?

I have some potted peonies, but would like to repot them in something larger. I live in zone 7a. Should I do it now or wait until the fall?

So for peonies mix soil with pine bark?

Can I plant Nova Zembla in pots permanently? The low temperature in winter can freeze a flowerpot into ice, will its roots freeze out?

I just get one root. Live in zone 8. Can I planted right now in spring in a container?

Hey great stuff....Quick question...I am about to transplant 2 Camellias ( I think Japanese) to the side of my house to get them out of the sun. They are 1 or 2 seasons old. How far from or should I plant them near my foundation on the side of my house? Thanks again!

They aren't aggressive rooting plants really. I had a big yuletide camellia only three feet from my house that I transplanted in a video last year.

I live in the UK, and would like to know if I'm OK to prune an old rhododendron, how would i do it? and when would it be best time of year to do it,? it's in a big container at the moment.

How to repot peonies. I bought them last year in a pot and had bloomed. I just want to change the pot. Any suggestions ?

put in a new bigger pot, make sure the growing part is just at soil level not buried.

Hi, Jim, I picked up a bag of peony tubers at a wholesale club last week to try starting them off in containers, as you suggested. Usually the peonies I've purchased have about 5-6 eyes, but these were so inexpensive that I wasn't surprised to find they are smaller. There were 4 tubers in the bag.-Two each of 2 varieties. The tubers are small--about 2 or 3 eyes each, so I thought I'd plant two of the same variety in one pot and the other two in another pot. Is there any reason why each must go in its own container? I planned to grow them all summer and just surround them with some small annuals that enjoy sun. I'll be able to keep my eye on them and feed and water regularly to keep the pot looking pretty all season. Long term, I will likely plant these out into garden beds this autumn. Thanks in advance for any advice!

My understanding is they have a large root ball that needs roo to spread out.

Hello Jim! Tell how they did I’m trying to find a pic on your IG to see the progress but can’t find it, I’m really interested to plant some peonies in pots but I’m little scare. Thank you!

Great video. Can the peonies stay in a pot forever? Or need to transfer to ground when the growing bigger?

You know what? I have *never thought of planting peonies in a container. But now that you have shown me the light, I plan to pick up some of those inexpensive ones at the box store and giving them a try. I hope for blooms. Then I will have to figure out if I can store them in the containers over the winter or not because I have no more space for peonies in the landscape.
