Rose planting tips you will love in Utah:

You've seen how much I love growing Sweet Mademoiselle; and I'm excited to be adding to my collection with Kiss me Kate.

She is a fragrant climber in a beautiful shade of pink. And spoiler alert, I know she will do well here, because my house looks at a beautiful hedge of Kiss me Kate that my neighbor planted years ago 😍

My husband has been begging me to replace the first roses shown in this reel with a Bloomables variety, and I am excited to see it climb up our front porch.

He's also a big fan of the Sweet Madmoiselle roses I planted in front of his office windows two summers ago.

Make sure your soil is broken up enough that the roots can extend downward like I'm showing in this video.

I only use my native soil now because there are so many opinions on amending soil when planting shrubs, but the roses have been fine planted this way.

Utah was made for growing peonies. 😍

And if you live here, you know how lucky we are to have them in this desert.

If you are having problems with them not blooming, make sure to check that you didn’t plant them deeper than your original potted plant.

Mine are all locally grown by for and stores.

In this reel, I am showing Sarah Bernhard and Alexander Flemming but I also grow Duchess De Nemours, Paula Faye and a few other varieties.

Peonies are one of the few plants where I will pay more for a more established plant.

They can take 3 to 4 years before they start producing like this.

And the good news is, I saw them shipping to stores this week so keep an eye out for them!

Don’t forget to follow along here and for plant tips and current store updates all season long.

Exclusive only to this year is the tomato called Sweet 150.

It is a prerelease at Home Depot, like the Sweet 100, which is a cherry tomato, but these are big cherry tomatoes and they are very sugary, great in salads and all sorts of things.

They are probably an inch in diameter and they are great tasting, too.

They are bred to put on an awful lot of tomatoes throughout the growing season.

You can plant tomatoes as long as the temperature is above freezing, but 50 degrees is the safe bet for when they are forming fruit.

That will not be happening for a few weeks, and the forecast is above 50 anyway, so now is the perfect time to get tomatoes into the ground.

A lot of people are concerned that maybe they should protect them from the heat, but tomatoes love heat.

They might need a little more water to get established in the next week or so, but not a ton more water.

Just keep an eye on them.

Now is the perfect time to get your vegetable garden in, especially tomatoes.
