Fall Garden Tour at Spring Meadow | Gardening with Creekside



Recently Jerry & I were fortunate to take a fall garden tour of the private trial gardens of Spring Meadow Nursery in Michigan. Spring Meadow is the home to the Proven Winners Color Choice Shrubs and these gardens are the final trials that the shrubs must go through before being added to the Proven Winners’ inventory. Join us for a walk through this gorgeous garden as we see it for the first time in the fall.

    Beautiful!! Im in nc zone 8a, so I don't get that late pink aged color here either..but the hydrangeas do hang on a bit longer vs aging in the blooms..i have several and are gorgeous.. i definitely recommend southern gardners to have them regardless ❤

    Great tour. I loved being able to see some mature specimens of things I have recently planted in my garden, including the soft serve false cypresses and tangelo barberry. It can be really hard to picture a mature plant from the tag alone and often there are not a lot a pictures online.

    I lived outside of Kalamazoo, about an hour from Spring Meadow Nursery. You are getting to see Michigan in her best season. We lived in Michigan for 10 years, and fall was my favorite season, short though it was. The weather is beautiful this time of year.
    It was great to see how the panicle hydrangeas perform in their “native” habitat. My Limelights just go from creamy white to brown. I was glad to learn from you that I had not done anything wrong. My Firelights just go brown also. Sort of disappointing, but I am realizing the heat and humidity of coastal NC causes plants to perform differently.
    Thanks for showing us those lovely garden spaces. They are well planned and well laid out but they don’t appear stiff and formal. Truly beautiful!!!!

    We had some severely overgrown and poorly kept Wintergreen Barberry bushes that were over 8-10ft lining our neighbors property line against our narrow driveway. The undergrowth was a jumbled nuisance network of 2 and a half inch tri-thorned leave-less twigs. We had to prune them often on our side as their new growth would quickly grow to the utility lines and into our car park multiple times a season. I really think they were just in the wrong place for their thorny nature, and they grew out of hand without proper shaping before we got a hold of the property. After our elderly neighbor tried to hard prune them to help us with getting control of a pruning schedule, she ended up scoffing at the task and asking us to cut them completely to the crowns to dig them out, then paid to have it all hauled off. My husband and I are very glad she decided that. Maybe one day I’d give them a try for their beautiful color. But for now, I’m traumatized and sworn off the Barberries; even if there are much softer and less brush-like varieties.

    Thank you so much for this tour of Spring Meadows – these gardens are stunning! Jenny – you didn't skip a beat with your commentary and Jerry did a great job on the camera side of things – you guys are such an awesome team♥

    Wow! This was a beautiful and inspirational video! I especially enjoyed the designing lesson which was extremely interesting and gave me great ideas for my own gardens that I have recently created. I have been really having a difficult time trying to figure out how to continue adding on and these were some amazing ideas. Thank You!!

    Gorgeous! Stunning! Amazing. Could get lost in those gardens for days! Wow. What are the hydrangeas you’re standing in the middle of in the intro shot for this video?

  24. Roberta Grigsby

    The Allendale Garden Club would tour his yard periodically. I really miss that since I moved across the state. Enjoyed seeing it again in your video! Thank you!

  26. Kate Hillenbrand

    Jenny and Jerry, I just love all the great videos you produce for us. You are so informative and keep them interesting.
    I'm glad you got to come back in another time of the season to show us the beautiful fall color show.

    Question about the bloomerang Lilac, could this variety be pruned into more of a tree form? I’ve seen that on more established lilacs and I was wondering how you should prune it to end up like that. I just bought 3 this year after your idea in one of your videos to rotate shrubs, I’ll be rotating 4 fine line buckthorn’s, incrediballs and 3 bloomerang lilacs. ( with a 3 ft tall rose variety in front of each of the fine line lines, and midnight wine shines in front of the incrediballs.)

    Those evergreens at 22:00 look very much like our Incense cedars – ours grow almost as fast as the Western Red Cedars (we are near the Canadian border in WA) but have a more full habit.
    Great tour – what an incredible garden!

    Thanks Jenny for the shout out about our Barberry. You remembered correctly they are under a Limelight tree. They thrived in the major heat we had this summer.

    I’ve enjoyed this so much!!!! Laying here with a head injury while our front and back in a full blown landscaping redo! You’ve given me fabulous ideas. Wish you were here in California, I am full of shade and see my opportunities are better than I anticipated with a little research. Thank you, your energy is fabulous for videos.
