Boston Strong indeed! 🥰🌺 You're very welcome. 🍀

Thank you! ☺️🏵️

Thank you so much! 💗 That's great to know about Irish Spring soap and skunks! 🧼🦨

I haven't placed the few types of sedum that I have in the right locations in my yard. This year I'm going to spend more time moving them around in hopefully the right places. Good idea about the Chelsea chop. ❤️🌸

Thanks so much! 💖🙂

Hi Beth. I love that you have this plant in your yard and love even more that your Mom planted it there for you. 💗 I think the beauty of gardening is having plants in our yard that have meaning to us. In fact, my Zagreb coreopsis came from my mother-in-law's yard and I'm so happy that I have a piece of it here with me. If you want, you could always use a shovel (large one or hand shovel) and just take some small pieces of it from the side of the plant to transplant and experiment with that. That way you, you're not digging out the whole plant. Just be sure to keep giving the transplant plenty of water. 🥰🌸

Hi Jenn! Fortunately we do not have rabbits here where I live. My Mom used to have rabbits where she lived (1.5 hours south of my home) and she used to sprinkle Cayenne pepper around her plants. It may be worth a try. 🤞😊

Hi there! I've had pansies come back as well as self seed in my yard in the Spring. I think for me here in zone 5b New Hampshire, it depends on how harsh our winters are. But I've been luck with my pansies coming back the last few years. 💗😊

@@budgetgardeningvita Hi! Thank you for this response. I’m in North Central Mass so I’m going to try and encourage mine to self-seed! 😅. Thanks again for the info!

@@melissaneufell8081 I'm originally from Burlington, MA! 💕 I suggest scattering some seeds now so that the plants can germinate and get established and if need be mulch them lightly with leaves late Fall. Key is to keep the seeds well watered during these hot days otherwise the plants won't germinate. Good luck! 🙂

@@budgetgardeningvita Oh great! I’m originally from Waltham!! By the way your yard is gorgeous! Thank you for this great info! I just started to harvest seeds this year from my garden (starting a new “hobby” basically). Appreciate your info and all your videos!

Oh wow! That's great to know. I'll have to check if we have the same type of setup. In the meanwhile, I've been saving all my milk jugs this Spring and Summer so that I'm ready to go this coming Winter. Also, many times local coffee shops will save milk jugs for you if you just ask them to. 😊🌸

I love this comment! I agree with you 100 percent. Winter sowing is so much fun and is really a great activity to do during the winter months. 🥰🌺

Hi there! I made a video on how I cold stratify seeds in milk jugs during the winter months. Kindly check out my How To Winter Sow in Milk Jugs video: ua-cam.com/video/x9-ifLwjtbI/v-deo.html. Thank you. 🌸😊

Thank you, Nancy! 💗 Coffee or Bloody Mary's on the balcony are always a special treat. 😉🍷

You're welcome! The Zagreb definitely thrive in full sun so if I were you, I'd move it to where it would be happier. 🌞🌼

You're very welcome! 😊🌸

Thanks so much, friend! 🥰🌹

Thank you so much, Wanda! I truly appreciate you. 💗🌼

Hi there! I think the Ajuga would be ok as a groundcover really around any plant. Since it's so easy to dig up and remove, if you found it to be problematic, you could always remove it from the immediate base of your plant(s) each year just to keep the Ajuga in check. However, I haven't had to do that with it being around my rhododendrons and the rhodies seem to be just fine. 🥰🌺

Hi Maureen. I love your idea about the Speedwell I'm the rose garden! Thank you! 💕☺️

Thank you so much! 🌞🌸

Thank you, friend! ☺️

Hi Carolyn! Thank you for the suggestion! I love echinacea / coneflowers! In fact, I did make a video last year showing how to collect their seeds. Please check out that video: ua-cam.com/video/xh6gqhLCtJQ/v-deo.html. Thank you! 🥰🌼

Sorry to hear that. Maybe buy a packet of seeds and try growing them that way. 💕💐

Mine too! ☺️🏵️

Thank you.😊 That's awesome! I'm so glad you had success with some seeds sprouting! 🪻😊

Thank you, Lucy! I love making videos showing what I'm up to in the garden. For perennial seeds, I generally start them using the winter sowing method. I can surely start some scabiosas in milk jugs this coming winter. 😊🌸

You're very welcome! I can't wait to collect more seeds this year! 🥰🌸

Thanks so much! I'm looking forward to creating a lot more seed collecting videos this year. 😊🌼

I have successfully overwintered mine in the garage. My garage does not fall below 40 degrees F in the winter. Big thing is to not let it dry out 100 percent to water is very sparingly. Too much water will rot out the roots. 😊🌺

Thank you! It's wonderful having the cucumbers hang down on the other side of the trellis. It makes it so much easier when it comes to harvesting them. Fortunately we do not have groundhogs in our yard. Oh no though - I'm so sorry to hear about all the damage the groundhog did in your yard. One suggestion I have is to buy a large size Havahart and bait it with something like cantaloupe. www.havahart.com/groundhog-baits. If you are able to catch the groundhog, you can release it far, far away from your home! Good luck, friend! 🤞💗

Thanks so much, Rachel! 😊💗🌺

Great plan! 🏵️☺️

Hi Darla! Thank you so much for subscribing to my channel and watching my videos. It truly means a lot! It's my pleasure to share what I know with all of my gardening friends. We have such a wonderful community on here! 🌸🥰

I totally agree, my friend! 💯💗

I'm so sorry to hear that this happened to your Iris. I've never had this happen to me but I did some research on it. It sounds like your iris have what's called Iris Rhizome Rot. Please do a search on that on the Internet to read more about it. You may be able to save the rhizomes but it may entail having to treat the rhizomes with 10 percent bleach solution (10 parts water to 1 part bleach). Hugs and good luck! 🤞💗

@@budgetgardeningvita thanks for passing along the information! Odd after 10 years in the same spot it happened. I keep the top of the rhizomes uncovered. I will be working on them first thing tomorrow! You are amazing 🥰

Hi Maureen. I'm SO glad to hear that I'm not the only one still planting annuals! 💗How dare hubby suggest you don't plan everything?! Doesn't he know better? 😅 Too funny!

I use Google Lens to help me identify plants (weeds and not weeds too). Here's a good link that tells you how to do that: tinyurl.com/mr4da2j2. There are also free plant ID apps that you can download and try out on your phone. If anyone else reading this comment can suggest a good plant ID app that they use, that would be wonderful. Thank you! 💗

YES I’ve tried that and it’s been wrong 😩 The app told me I had baby onions (actually burgundy and gold day lillies), that I had weeds (actually clematis), that I had an exotic rose bush (actually wild blackberries) 🤣 Then there was this lovely plant with leaves that close at night. My lawn guys yanked it up immediately to my surprise with asking me first (baby mimosas which are prolific here). 🤷🏽‍♀️ We’ve owned the house only 19 months tho - so Honestly I’m kinda having fun NOT pulling up anything until I’ve seen what it grows up to be. 😊 THANKS, Vida 🌸🫶🏽

Hi Kathie! I have used Irish Spring soap shavings and sprinkled them around plants that deer eat. I shave the soap using a carrot grater. Good luck!🫰😊

Thank you, Beth! It's such a beautiful plant and you'll really enjoy them in years to come. I plan on dividing some of mine this Fall and some others next Spring as they have gotten huge (which is a good problem to have lol). Happy gardening, friend! 😊🌼

Awww. Thank you for your lovely comment! I truly appreciate it. 🥰🌺

Oh wow, Nancy. You've been busy! We had a few days of rain but now we are back to no rain and temps in the mid to high 80s. 🌞🌼

I have to get to my day Lillie’s tomorrow and plant some annuals as well! 🙋🏽‍♀️

Hi Becky! I have never tried. I'll have to see if mine have created seeds and if so I can definitely make a video on the process. 🌺😊

@@budgetgardeningvita Thank you! I’ve got the ones I collected in the fridge.

Nice! It's such a good feeling, isn't it? 🥰🌺

Yes! I have a question I have bout alot of seeds to WS this year. But I'm getting a little antsy wanting to start some now, I live in zone 8a first frost is usually the end of Oct. Is it a good idea to start some now in ground? Thanks

Hi Cynthia! You must have had such a wonderful time with both your grandsons visiting. 💗 Our humidity had been high for weeks but finally today it's not as humid. Happy gardening, friend! 🌺

Hi Kathy! Great idea. I'll be following your lead and will be doing the same with certain seeds like Lupine. The seeds will get the natural cold stratification period that they need during the winter and should then germinate next Spring. The big thing to keep in mind is that the seeds are out of our control once we put them outside. Certain things can affect seeds from not germinating, such as animals disturbing/eating the seeds, too much moisture, etc. But it's worth a try! Happy gardening, friend. 😊🌺

Hi Maureen! Great suggestion. I'll make a video soon on the winter sowing process. Please be on the lookout for that video. 💗 In the meanwhile, please checkout my winter sowing playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLx94OYQcbu9q1eqxsLsxqWGvzmF2iWq5L.html

Hi there! Please check out my How To Take Geranium Cuttings video (ua-cam.com/video/Umf6jZEQyr8/v-deo.html) as well as an update video (ua-cam.com/video/H_wjaYUO1Dw/v-deo.html). I hope you're successful with both your cuttings as well as with overwintering your plants. 😊 I potted mine up on the earlier side just because I wanted to make a video of the process and get that instruction out there for everyone. However, I suggest potting them later than February because you're right - why baby them for that long if you really don't need to? As long as you pot them up 8 weeks before you average last frost date, you'll be fine. 🌺
