This is the first time I have been at Southern Roots Nursery to see there Christmas display. I am in love and will make sure I attend much earlier next year. They had all the newly and wanted Christmas Decorations and so many ideas for a new Christmas tree. They had all the best options for your garden as well. A very good selection of plants that will make you say “I want that”!

Enjoy your tour and make a list of “I Wants”!!!!

Hi guys Kim here welcome to Backyard blooms I’m at Southern root in Belmont North Carolina and this is a cute little Nery and they have a lot of proven winners and Monrovia so I thought I’d bring you along so I live in North Carolina Zone 8 and I actually live in Charlotte and

This cute little Nursery is about maybe 20 25 minutes away from my house so this is the first time that I’ve been at this nursery for Christmas and I will so come back I have fallen in love with all of these gorgeous ornaments and trees that they have in this Garden Center it

Almost reminds me a little bit of Laura with Garden anwers Parents Nursery they have it very well done and of course this tree right here reminds me of my blue white and silver tree and I really loved these white whatever those are I can’t even really tell you what those white little

Things are but um little pixie sticks I thought they would look really good in my tree and I may or may not have bought that little ornament right there with the bird on it but I thought this tree some of the ornaments in here would fit really well with

Mine they almost look like rose hips do you think that those little white things like look like rose hips and I bought a few of these for my tree too I had a $100 gift card that my friend neighbor Vinnie got me for helping her design

Part of her garden so I was able to spend that today and this cute little garden knot right here was so expensive but if that’s your taste it would be really really cute in the garden and then this is a gold tree and has lots of gorgeous ornaments in there

As well and I love that how they decorated all these trees with different types of florals and then brought some really cute ornaments in to fill it as well and just as my style it is completely full where you can hardly see the tree and you can see that they put

Some feathers in there too I’ve seen that lots of times before and I think that’s a really cute look as well as long as a color scheme goes with your garden so I really love all the pine cones you could see some gold roses right here some Stars some sparkly ornaments

And I really really love the mercury glass like I don’t know why I have just fallen in love with all the mercury glass this year and I love all the little Christmas tree ornaments that look like nature that are made out of natural material so if you like gnomes these gnomes are

Really cute but I really like these little Christmas trees right here so that’s another thing that I’ve fallen in love with this year that has really got and caught my eye for Christmas this year that have has not in the past and I love the deer as

Well the bells are always a good staple for your Gardens these have some different types of Blues and then and then I even thought this ball right here that has the feathers on it were really cute and the mercury glass of course was really different I think this Nursery probably honestly had I’m going to guess 10 to 15 trees that were all decorated I wish that I

Was able to come when they had their opening which was the first part of November so this tree right here has a little bit more lighter greens to them love this little owl so cute of course I’ve got some owls in my trees this year as well and I really really

Wanted to bring the outside inside this year and all of these trees right here have done the same I’m just can’t say enough of what I absolutely love I could put every single one of these trees in my house that they are so well decorated whoever done this did a really really

Good job so I hope this gives you some inspiration and ideas even if you’ve already decorated your tree for this year like stop and take a couple of pictures off this video and you might be able to have some new ideas for next year there’s some Holly in the mix right

Here and some red old bulb ornaments that used to be back in the day and those are coming in by the way and these just have a lot of those berries in there berries and Hol are making this tree look really good and then the Browns are really

Coming in too this year I’ve noticed burgundy and brown has been a big popular color this year these ornaments right here were so big but the birds on them were so cute and this of course is a red tree now in the years past I’ve had a

Lot of red and green in my trees but I love the Christopher Reiko ornaments so you can go back and look at my videos where I’ve had actually two big trees decorated up this year my silver white and blue with my owls and I have a lot

Of my natural hydrangeas in my garden or in my tree this year and then my Christopher R Co tree has a lot of Reds this color right here is really pop popular this year when we went to HomeGoods to look for some ornaments this color was super super popular pine

Cones in the trees are really really popular this year so if you can get your hands on a couple of those you can also see some I don’t think it’s a cotton I for I cannot think of that term right there with those little white flowers oh my grandmother used to have

Them in her Pond I cannot think of the name of it but they’re really cute as well and even just cotton sticks would be really pretty and then love these big white Bells I have some red but I do not have any white and this tree right here was

Just made out of cut reminds me of some of bark that was on a tree and I thought it was really cute I thought this was a really cute display with these reindeers and sleigh and I love that this tree has this big box instead of like the

Original oh what do you call them I just like the boxes I thought they looked just kind of different in original like this past year I bought the 10 ones that go around the bottom but I think they really look cuter than a skirt and look at these pine

Cones or yeah I guess they’re called pine cones with this uh pretend snow on it I thought they were really cute as well so I like buying different things at different nurseries because if you get this same thing at all the nurseries and I bought one of these two by the way

I thought they were so cute I love these hanging on stockings and that’s the exact thing that I did was I bought one for my stocking on my mantel this past year but anyways I like going to different Gardens so you can find different things I mean if you found

Like one complete tree and you want to buy everything there then go right ahead but going to different nurseries you can find different things that you really like and I found a couple of these for my silver tree and I bought this with my $100 gift card because I thought it was

Looks original it doesn’t look fake so I thought it was really cute now their Garden Center has some adorable stuff as well like I said I am in zone 8 now I know that I can go to any of these nurseries right here and anything that they sell here in my

Zone I know that it’s going to do really good in my garden so kind of give that a thought now you had to do a little bit of extra thinking and look at the zones when you’re buying stuff online but if you go to a garden center and you know

That they’re selling it they’re not going to sell you a plant that’s not going to do good in that zone so just to kind of give you an idea and another thing to think about whenever you’re going to a garden center is what space are you buying your plants are you do you

Have sun do you have shade everything that is out in the sun is going to be good for a sunny area and I love this I’ve been dreaming about this black lace like I’ve had it in my dreams and I didn’t realize it was that expensive but

I think I’m going to go back and get that black lace I think it’s an Elderberry but it reminds me of a lot of a Japanese maple the leaf on there it does and I love that it gives you that burgundy and red foliage now I love the

Structure of this tree this is something that I have not seen before and I thought like the structure was really cute even without leaves and they had all the different types of hydranges now these are all Pentacle hydranges or a hydrange that can take full sun so make sure you pay atten

Atton because a lot of people will get a hydrangea and think oh I love this Bloom and not realize that it is more for a shady area and not for sun but if it’s a panical hydrangea you can definitely put that in full sun now with that saying

Hydranges like a lot of water lots of water so that’s why they’re called Hydra and even in my zone 8 we have many many days that are above 90 degrees so that’s why my hydranges stay more happy when they’re on drip now if you feel like

It’s too much for you to add your drip then make sure you’re you got some and you’re going to spend the time watering because they’re going to need lots of water to make them happy but for me I love drip and don’t feel intimidated by putting drip into your Gardens because

Like I said if I can do it you can do it and I feel like in my videos that I have I made it very simple for you to understand and I have all the links that you can buy your drip to on Amazon so all these things I just love now these

Uh Laura pedms a lot of people have them but the proven winner ones I think this one’s a little bit more on the smaller side so and then I really like the foliage on it too jazz hands mini which I didn’t even know exist cuz a lot of

Times even a three 3×3 shrub gets pretty big when you’re put it your front lightcap now I would like I would not mind having this Atlas Rose I think this peachy color on this Rose was so so pretty so that might be something that I’m considering adding into my garden

Somewhere I do love my David Austin Roses though as well but this one makes me look like it’s a David Austin Rose and they’re about the same price and then of course for sanis looks really pretty in the springtime I love this yellow they two different types one’s a

Smaller one and one’s a bigger one right now reminds me of Linton roses which is called a Christmas Rose as well they’re also called hellor so they’re really really popular in the garden centers right now because they’re about ready to be and Bloom and I bought this one for

Myself because I love that color so it said that it would it goes in a Woodland area so I’m going to put this one in the middle of my Crypt Mar trees which kind of gives it like a woodland type look but I thought this Bloom was so so

Pretty I’m just in love with blooms anything that has a gorgeous bloom or even a gorgeous foliage I am just fall in love with it I am a sucker and I like Blues in the garden too so this gives you like that really kind of silverish

Blue in your garden and these uh little brown tips just gives it great interest as well so this is a great time to look at your garden and since things you know aren’t blooming look around and see if you have enough green because you still have to have enough green interest in

Your garden and I thought this was a really pretty uh hooka as well and this one reminds me of my caramel hooka that doing really really good and it looks gorgeous right in front of my boxwoods so I thought this was a really pretty color it reminds me of fall as

Well and you want to make sure your Gardens have all types of Interest so like right now I’m planting bulbs in my garden for spring interest and then I have other things that um bloom in the springtime like aelas and my yoshio cherry tree blooms in the springtime I

Have a few other things too that doesn’t really come to mind right now now I thought this ground cover was really really pretty I like to start with my bigger things in the garden like my bigger trees and then work down to shrubs and then perennials but then the

Very last thing that I like to incorporate into my garden is a lot of ground cover the more ground cover that you have the less mulch that you need and of course it gives you like more interest to me than just mulch but the Fuller your Gardens are the less weeds

That you’re going to have and I thought this was a just a gorgeous color right there and then I love the interest of this tree like I really don’t I’ve never seen this type of tree and I’m not sure if I could I try to show the tag but I

Can’t get close to it right now well anyways I just think this structure was really really pretty it looks like Thorns but it was not prickly like a thorn and then I like stuff that has a green structure like this as well it kind of made me laugh because I am

Originally from Kentucky it’s where I grew up at and all my family is there and to see this uh oh the um Kentucky Fried Chicken just kind of make me laugh and look at this bike up in the tree I thought it was funny too they had some um different

Type of art now me and my friend Don like really love this G tree we love the uh Leaf form on it and she is really looking into buying one into her garden so I it’s just something different that not everybody has and they have some

That don’t grow as big and then some grow that a little bit bigger too this one right here doesn’t get as big but they have gorgeous yellow yellow flowers before they start to turn brown so just a very real very really cute little tree to kind of keep in

Mind and then just some more Evergreen with different textures so just keep in mind like when you put a shrub next to each other to make sure they have just slightly different types of green this one reminds me a little bit more of a yellow but look at the texture as well

When you’re pairing up against like other different types of either needles or leaves this one kind of stays tight and compact by 2 by3 and then Chamas for here for the South are a staple and they’re starting to be able to you you can plant these in a lower Zone like I

Think you could start planting Chamilia in a zone six too and mine are just now starting to uh butt out and Bloom and they’re just so so pretty when there’s not much other color in the garden but Chamas are always going to give you a really pretty color in the garden and

Then I’ve had my eye on these uh Pearl glams for a while instead of purple I would really really love to have a white one how many of you guys have a white I think they’re called beauty Beauty berries as well this was The appr Proven

Winners and this one still has a little bit of the berries on on it but starting to go out of season and of course you can see that it’s deciduous too and then I thought this tree was kind of a funky little tree it’s kind of weak being habit different different branching too

The details on that are so so like long it kind of reminds me of a floppy little wig and then these Twigs on this Arctic fire red caught my eye as well so I think uh these would be a great interest in a garden too and this one doesn’t get

Too tall 3 and 1/2 ft but that interest of the red I just love it I thought this one caught my eye too this um blooms this is a Claus and then I have one Evergreen Claus which I think is kind of different that way you can have your interest all year

Around so um for me I’m GNA like keep an eye on an Evergreen Claus and I may even go back and get this one too this one gets quite tall at 25 feet tall you guys so that needs like a very big space and then I have a

Variegated fuga form I believe it’s how you say it far augum there you go this one’s a giant one and the leaves on there are very Giant and it is an evergreen if you live in a zone eight and above so it will not lose its leaves

But gorgeous Leaf form on that now my husband told me this was an Impala and I told my friend Don that went with me I said my husband would say what a shame that they had let this happen but you can see these trees that are growing out

Of it and that one right there is a more of a dwarf uh tree too some more Evergreens that give you a little bit of different interest I would so plant this one if I had the room in my garden well guys that’s it for this

Video right now this was my tree that I did buy at the nursery and I got all those cute little ornaments on there with the Mery glass just to show you where I placed it my friend Don said it would look really pretty like in between

These two mirrors so I agreed and that’s where I place them now in a different video I’ve already kind of shown you where this is my Christmas tree and I’ve already shown it in a couple of videos as well but I just wanted to show you

The oraments that I placed here this was the bird one that’s the mercury glass and it just looks really pretty up against the light so sometimes it looks gold and sometimes it looks silver just depends on what you place it up against and then let’s see if I can find this

Was the other ornament that I bought as well isn’t it so pretty and it actually looks really good with all of this blue silvery stuff that I’d already bought and this ornament right here matches it really well too need to get that little thing off my tag you don’t want that

Showing still can’t get it off anyways I thought you know these both looked really good and cute together as well that one and that one so if you want a full full tour of my Christmas trees make sure you look at those videos well I thought I’d come on here and put

A little bit of ending to that video instead of it stopping abruptly but anyways I hope you really liked that tour of Southern Roots I thought it was a different unique little store and really cute plants there as well and I’m looking forward to going back and buying

A few things right there I really really liked that uh that Elderberry the lace one the black lace I thought that was so cute and I’ve been dreaming about that one so you know when you dream about it you better go and get it because it’s something that you need in your garden

If you dream about it so if you like it that much after a few days and you keep thinking about it then just go back and get that plant for yourself so anyways you guys are awesome make sure you like share and subscribe this video as well

And help me out on my YouTube and let me know that you like that I enjoy other videos of different nursery tours so I hope you did too and like I said I was trying to educate a little bit about like things that are out in the

Sun or what you put in the sunny locations and if you see plants at the nursery that are shade then that is plants that need to be in the shade if that gives you any idea to kind of think about those things because they know

What does well and if it takes sun or shade as well so I hope you guys have a merry Christmas and I’m sure I’m going to have a couple of videos Before Christmas is actually here and yeah see you guys in the next video bye friends

  1. The little white berries could be misltoe! A lovely nursery but not over keen on the overstuffed trees; I like to see more of the green trees
