Purple is our best selling color for many years now here at our garden center in Fallbrook. I always feel so blessed that we have such mild winters, a 9 or 10 month bloom season. We use many of your purple selections for our hummingbird gardens. Thanks again from California

Gardening since I was a small child with my grandmother. Relatives passed away: grandparents and great aunts and uncles. Father and my mother recently. I've really got into gardening as a healing way to go through grief. Gardening is so healing!

Lucky you 😍😍!! In Wisconsin, we only get 5 months 😍😍!!!

This video is exactly what I was looking for! My husband passed from Pancreatic Cancer in January, 2020. I’m trying to build a flower bed with purple plants in honor of him as purple is the color of the Pancreatic Cancer ribbon. Wish me luck!

If you are in a climate where it will prosper, lavender is a fragrant choice. It does not want a lot of water, comes in many varieties, and will perfume the air.

Lol I love how he kinda whispered about the peonies like he’s gossiping about them. 😂❤️

My absolute favorite color!! Every year I mix lavenders, creamy whites and chartreuse green wherever I plant...the pots, the flower beds, etc. I use a lot of golden globe arborvitae as backdrops and borders, fill in with several varieties of white hydrangeas and then any beautiful purple perennial and annual I can find, and Allen, my purple vitex Shoal Creek plants are blooming!! Whohoooo! I put them in pots on the patio for summer and am starting to get butterflies! I filled in around the base of them with periwinkle petunias and purple salvia 🤓☺️and they are just gorgeous!! Scabiosa skin disease😂😂. That’s a good one! My Russian sage is growing like crazy and it is so easy to root new plants! I can’t wait to watch all these grow and bloom over the summer. Oh and yes, the catmint! I love, love the Walker’s Low and it is easy to propagate too! I put the catmint and Russian sage around the borders of my veggie gardens and....can you tell I’m excited about purple?!? 😉😉

Oh no! Just when you get it all looking spectacular, the first Japanese Beetle comes to scope it out! Aaaaaagggghh!

I think this is my favorite gardening episode. I love purples!

You are very talented Wow 😂😳 so many things you do cooking your home design teaching. also teaching children how to love garden. God has made a beautiful 😍❤️ peace of himself in you , may God continue to bless you with good health long life and much smiles and your creativity..

U r right. Salvias just grow so easily. I see hummingbirds visiting my front garden sometimes🥰🙏🏽

I've learned so much from you. Purple is one of my favorite colors. The Midwest has lots of purple naturally. From violets to paper money.

This is why you are my favorite. Through the years you've taught me to love all blooms, colors and shapes.

Allen - thank you. It really helps me when you sit down with so many examples of plants. I can jot down the names and look them up later. I love your walks through gardens too but this is easier when you just have them all right there! I think my new favorite is Russian Sage!

Wow!!, I must put a few Velvet Elvis's, Pin Cushions, and Artemisia... thanks for sharing, I just got inspired.. I've put a lot of emphasis on whites, pinks and blue perinials, but my house color is periwinkle..(I shocked my neighbors)... purples are my new theme for the season..

I’m so jealous of the purple plant winners! Can this be my question for a win too??? Lol! Congratulations winners! Rock that purple plant passion!!! 💜💜💜

I paint watercolors and love purple flowers....actually most all flowers, especially old fashioned cottage flowers. Flower gardening is a wonderful hobby💕. Thanks for your knowledge and creativity😊

Purple has been my favorite color since I was a sweet young girl, I am now 68. I liked purple when it was not popular.

My favorite purple/blue flower for pollinators is Gregg's Mistflower. It's the top attractor of butterflies in my garden.

thanks for the informations i have learned from this video, i also love purples , flowers and plants.

Loved this video, as purple is my favorite color in the landscape. So surprised you didn't mention clematis. They come in so many shades of purple...

Thank you, purple is my favorite color, I wear it and my property has all kinds of purple flowers, love the accompanying ideas you have!!!

Love your show on utube! Especially love this one on Purple plants. I just gave my friend a Purple Elvis as she is an Elvis fan. Now I want one for my own garden! Thanks again! Jeanne

Love your channel, very educational

I love the fact that you are sensitive to those that have to work within a budget! Thank you! Love your show!

Love how you explain companion planting and design in the garden, landscape and containers by deconstructing plants, color and groupings. So helpful, I can't tell you. Plus you are so elegant in your presentations. I'm in southern Oregon zone 8a.

You are a gifted teacher with a gracious demeanor. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all!

I just love how you do what you do! When I watch you on TV, I really appreciate how you put each item (in recipes or designing) name in large font. Thanks!

So fun learning about all these different purple flowers! Thank you!!😊

The Russian sage also has a nice aroma. Mexican sage blooms really nice after the second year, no fragrance. The purplish salvia seem to always get infested with bugs for me...nice video and informative

I love your program. Thank you.

Purple is one of the honey bees favorite colors🍯🐝❤

I didnt know that

I love your channel. I too am a painter, and I like to plant according to what I see in nature. I just planted my purple salvia, and beside it the light purple butterfly flower, among with dill, and cosmos

Ive always been drawn to purple flowers. Im trying to introduce other colors, but my gardens are predominantly purple. Im only into our second year at our home and have been a crazy plant lady year round! Im really getting interested in propagating and wonder if you could do a video in more depth. Or feature a colder zone garden plan. And im definitely ordering those lilies!!! Thank you so much allen! Ive been a fan for years but am absolutley loving this channel!!

You’ve got me daydreaming about all these purple lovelies 💜 I need a catalog 🥰

Thank you I have Day Lilly’s in yellow and orange but didn’t know there were purple - have lavender and mini mixed petunias in a purple and white stripe and yellow center so pretty - loving purple

I just planted fence border of Salvia intermixed with Blue Butterfly Pincushion. Beautiful. I had not finished planting when the pollinators were buzzing about.

I love purple flowers!

Great video. Makes me want to garden even more. Cheers.

Thank you❤ All the questions and answers helped me and my garden;)

I love this ❤️

Thank you I love purple flowers

I am just learning how to garden and I LOVE purple and I LOVE Salvia plants... :-) Hi from North Carolina

I love purple flowers

Good information....I like purple...

I grow annual & perennial Salvias in my garden. Love em & so do the 🐝 🐝 🐝!

So awesome my favourite colour flowers

Thanks so much for you plant information 🦋

In Australia and almost tropical and have had success with Indigo spires Salvia. Love them . Have lost a lot probably due to humidity. Love your site by the way

Love all your videos 😊

I just added salvia nemorosa in my garden. I am searching for more to add along with my salvia for more interesting groupings of plants. I am glad for this episode. Isn't it because purple is a royal color? Making every garden interesting. Regards from Texas

Yeah 🎉 you talked about all the plants that grow beat in my sugar sand and the heat of south Texas. (San Antonio) Ha ha I never realized that I loved purple till you focused on them. Thank you so much for all the beauty you bring to each with each of your videos and the confidence you give to to try and keep trying ❤️💕

love the purple plants so does the hummingbirds, I noticed that blue plants attract butterflies.... Katee

love this

Wonderful recommendations. Thank you

Thank you for the recommendations 👍👍

I’ve just found you on KZread and so glad I did. I live in St John’s Newfoundland in Canada. Zone 5b. I’ve been gardening all my life well 55years anyway. Please keep going I love your show 💜

Loved this!

Luv purple 💜and always👍have! I really don't have many purple plants though. I've had a purple oxalis forever and I love it! Another purple plant that I'm trying to contain is Mexican Petunia! Such a bright beautiful purple color. I recently put in castor bean, the one with large purple leaves! I've got elderberry which has purple berries in the fall and American beauty berry which also has purple berries in the fall. I used to have agapanthus but died off due to lack of sun. And another plant I have is purple 4 o'clock! I luv them all! 💜🌄🍇☂️

Never enough purple 💜! This is my second time to watch the video. See, never enough purple..

A lot of helpful info!

Thanks for a great informative program. I wanted to say that I grow many types of salvias. I am in zone 8B so we have HOT summers, the salvia is one of the few plants that continues to bloom until the fall frost. Of all of the types of salvia that I have the Henry Duelburg is by far the best bloomer even better than the Blue Black salvia. Thanks again for such an informative program.

I love that I can now watch your programs "on demand" here on KZread. I live in Vermont and inherited at least 3 different types of peonies - I'm only guessing the varieties are: Sarah Bernhardt, Karl Rosenfield & Festiva Maxima - or very close to these varieties. I LOVE you suggestion of planting Russian sage to provide a screen to maximize the continued growth of the peony tubers...when should I plant Russian Sage, should I grow it from seed and when/can I divide it? Thank you for your time and if you can provide any answers I will cherish the interaction!

Really informative--thanks.

Thanks, love your advice. Pls do more on deer resistant plants

Looove Plectranthus!! ❤️

Hello P. Allen Smith....love your channel and all the wonderful advice you give. At the end of this video, you talked about the purple fountain grass. I love this grass and planted them in the front of my house but then noticed oh so so many grasshoppers, the brown colored ones. I don't know why but they freak me out so I removed the fountain grasses. Grasshoppers, friend or foe? Appreciate your input.

Wonderful information, great video.

Thank you very much for this great presentation of several purple flowers and foliage plants. Can you please be adding a list of plant you mention under your videos and maybe on the screen while you talk about them? It would help a lot in case we would like to buy them. Thank you.

I love persian shield, they are huge water lovers though. In my zone 7b I was constantly watering them!

Have you ever planted Society Garlic flowers? I see it coming back again in Central Florida. Often used as a group or board plant. Pretty purple flowers.

My daughter’s favourite Persian Shield beautiful plant ❤️

Really helps me a lot.

After watching this video before I went and purchased a Persian shield plant thank you for the suggestion.
