    My nandina were burned so much from the cold so I cut them down to nearly nothing....they were just sticks. Now, they are more beautiful than ever. I like them again

    I love stacks of terracotta pots. Functional art that speaks to my soul.

    I agree that terracotta pots are my fav and attractive indoors and outdoors. Last summer I scrubbed the moss off my pots because I thought they looked grubby. Regretfully, they looked boring and without character. No pot clean up this season. Agree, too, that plants are more expensive this year.

    Your garden is absolute perfection. I love it without all the clutter. Your vision is an inspiration to all of us. The beauty of your topiaries and thrifted containers are breathtaking. It’s nice to see you get past the winter storms, challenges and doldrums. Here in Michigan zone 6 B, we try to quickly move on after winter, wind and storms. We know that we can’t spend productive time on all that misery. Spring is a joy to experience. Once it finally gets here! And then Spring seems so short before the Summer heat moves in!

My garden was bigger when I was a little younger but now I’m gardening smarter. More bones, more pots, more bulbs . I don’t use chemicals but living with woods behind I get blessings from the birds I don’t want, lol And poison ivy!!! Love your front and back gardens💕

    Yes Linda, I am one of those people who find just a vision of terra cotta pots in different sizes and shapes absolutely captivating visually.... in fact I even use them as an art form by putting them in aged iron hanging basket holders in various stages of decay and distress with salt and moss markings ... lots of them in one basket ... no liner so you can see them all... mini, small, medium , large altogether .. then hang them from a portico... and iron hook off a wall or fence .. or on a tree (ie your tree baskets)

I just love your tables Linda so beautiful. Your displays of plants.. I just the viburnum and the white snow ball flowers. Just love the baskets that you are selling. Very shabby Chic. So thank you for today and Stewart for showing us how your beautiful garden is doing now after that awful storm you had.

    I love terra cotta pots as well. I think your basket is an old milk crate. I have a similar one that I have pots in as well. And as for your terra cotta “base” I had to laugh! I recently had a very large urn type terra cotta pot that I was moving to my backyard on my dolly. I was tired and the pot fell off and broke. But I was able to save the base of it by tapping away the pieces of the pot! It now is a perfect pedestal for other pots. So I love that we came up with the same idea. I don’t like to discard things that can still have a useful purpose! A thoughtful gardener is the ultimate recycler. 🌳🌳🌳

    Cincinnati spring is beautiful this year. Our trees are better than ever...blooming. They are celebrating Spring also. I love dogwoods. At Biltmore House in Asheville NC. , they have taken small dogwoods and trimmed them into round shrubs or topiary form. They are large in borders etc. look like balls of pink or white planted in the ground.
    My hardest task is finding dogwood trees small enough to start with. Have done 3 over the yrs.
    just FYI for you.

    Yes, stacks of terra cotta pots are always beautiful. I love the two tiered table effect! I'd have to place a tiny pot of ivy or some other trailing plant in the hole of that old redbud tree stump, make it a focal point while it's in view. Have a great day in the garden!

    I just discovered you & I am so inspired. We have similar favorites & tastes. I too love terra cotta pots & I use the broken shards as tiles on the bare earth in little sections. I laid
    them down in a little corner of my garden. Because of the clay, I use many pots. The ADVANTAGE to them is that can b moved & I can redecorate. You am also inspired to dress in fun clothes. Also love the golden barbieri & using different shades of green & different shades of euonymous. Also a big fan of nandina in different heights. Very hardy. Keep on inspring us with your creativity & positive attitude.🙋‍♀️😘

    Terra cotta is my favorite, sometimes I just buy a pot because I like it, even with no immediate plan to use it. All the chartreuse colors are so springlike. I especially like the chartreuse and orange barberry and boxwood all melded together. Nice combo of blue/purple Southern Living plants. I shared one of your videos with my sister in law who lives in Georgia. Thought it would be helpful for her next backyard landscape project.

There were very few Southern Living plants available, but I did see a picture of you on an advertisement for a tool that made digging holes easier. I ended up with herb seeds for my galvanized wash tub, as they had no herbs starters at all. Next trip will be to my local nurseries. Love seeing all your blue and purple bloomers, my favorites.

      They're making the terra cotta pots thinner than they used to. If you tap them, they make a clanking sound. Some of the newer shapes are so PRETTY, but they're even thinner and they also have different colors.

    I miss your nandinas against the fence and will be glad when they leaf out. I was never a fan of nandinas until I started watching your youtube channel. They are restful to the eyes in the background.

    I love Bluebells, but here in the uk try to plant the English or British Bluebell as it has a beautiful scent and if you plant the Spanish it out grows our native Britsh bluebell, I love them so pretty. 💙💙💙💚👍
