This is just what I have been looking for. My garden has been devastated by continual heavy rain for over 9 months. Most plant and my lawn have been under water and consequently have died. At the moment I am having drainage put in and the garden landscaped with artificial grass and raised borders. So now I am also looking to not only having plants in my borders but having plants in tubs and pots. Thank you for your advice on planting and showing the wide variety of colourful and structural plants that are available. I am now looking forwards to a whole new way of gardening.
@@Adams-Gardening-Guides I'm not yet sure if I like that night sky petunia, but I'm sure I will learn to love it, if I should challenge myself a little. I couldn't help laughing though, when you openly, and honestly admitted your feeling towards it. Maybe in a future video your will tell us, how you absolutely love it, and then I tell you, I will roll on the floor laughing. Because it can happen, I will keep my eyes open for your videos. Thanks.
One of the best, if not the best gardening video I ever watched. You really have a great taste for gardening ,great knowledge about the plants and presentation is beautiful. Thank you 💐
That’s very kind of you. As you can tell, I put a tremendous amount of time and effort writing, planning, filming and editing my videos (all single handed) and love it when viewers enjoy the results. Thank you!
I had to laugh because Night Sky and Green with Envy are 2 petunias I get almost every year. 😂 I love them for their bold uniqueness. However, I did not do any petunias this year - I don't love the stickiness involved with deadheading petunias. Cheers from America! Great video, as always - emailing to my friends and family so they can benefit from your great tips and variety ideas.
Lovely to hear from you, and I knew there would be gardeners getting in touch that loved these varieties. We’re so lucky that the plant breeders and nurseries provide such a wonderful range of varieties for us all to choose from aren’t we. Many thanks for sharing with your friends too. Wishing you all a wonderfully colourful summer garden!
You have a beautiful flowers collections 🌹 it's amazing 🤩 and you have a great knowledge I am learning your gardening tips thank you so much ❤ god bless you ❤️
What a lovely video! Great plant recommendations for the summer. They bring great joy. I am a fan of colorful gardens. Yours is one of my favorites. Your instructions are clear and useful and your accent is sweet melody. I think the Petunia night sky will suit a mysterious-themed garden like combining mushrooms + carnivorous plants. It is just a thought that came to my mind. But I did like those varieties. And the video quality is great. Thank you💐
I love the Night Sky and Green with Envy. They are so pretty to get a second and third looking. Three or four years ago I buy a Clematis Taiga. It is also green and lila. At first I buy it for the great shapes but now I love this colour combination. If it's works or not😊
Thank you for simple to follow video. I love your hostas in pots. I've got one divided into two in the border and a new one this year in a pot. So far they've resisted slugs. 🐌
I live and garden in England, in a county called Cambridgeshire, and about 90 miles north of London. We don't tend to refer to climate zones here but I think my area would be defined as Zone 7. Hope this helps.
I think the hardiness zone of my area of central England is Zone 8. Not sure if you use the same hardiness zone scale in North America, but hope this helps.
Thank you. Everything growing in pots and baskets need watering, and once plants are established in high summer this is a daily job. However, do follow my tips on watering in the video, especially standing pots in a saucer reservoir. And follow my feeding tips too, and in particular I find mixing a slow-release fertiliser granule into compost at planting time very helpful. Otherwise follow directions on the pack of your chosen soluble or liquid feed (probably weekly to fortnightly). Happy gardening!
Some pots of the hardy varieties like hosta stay outside, some pots like Eucomis and agapanthus are moved to my unheated greenhouse to provide some protection, while some of the tender things like petunias are discarded and added to my compost heap. I try and keep and protect as much as I can.
Glad you enjoyed my video. On your roses question I was always taught NOT to cover the graft/budding point on roses or other plants, shrubs, trees, fruits, etc. below this point is the rootstock, and the roots of this provide the support and sustenance for the variety grafted/budded above. I always keep this point ABOVE soil level and never bury it.
This is a plant I grow for its winter berries called Pernettya mucronata or also sold as Gaultheria mucronata. There are varieties in different colours. Some varieties are only female so will only produce berries in their second year if they are pollinated by a male, but other varieties are self-fertile. Aren’t they lovely.
Thank you. Pelargoniums usually enjoy hot summer conditions, in full sun. They can tolerate dry conditions but I find they prefer regular watering, but not kept constantly wet. Regular dead heading is essential too. Either mix a slow-release fertiliser into compost at planting time or mix a high-potash feed in when watering. Good luck!
Hi Pamela. You'll see through the video how I regularly mix slow-release fertiliser granules into the compost at planting time, so do try this as it removed the need to develop a feeding regime. I do sometimes put a hose-end fertiliser dilutor onto my hose as this creates a liquid feed. The product I use is the Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder. If no fertiliser is mixed into compost then I would recommend feeding plants with a liquid feed, possibly a high-potash tomato feed, every 10-14 days.
Do you mean compost? I buy my compost from local garden centres, and always look for offers. Choose what we call a Multi-Purpose Compost. I choose peat-free types, and sometimes they include an added ingredienr called John Innes that contains loam that makes teh compost more nutritious.
Hello❤ love your pots and flowers. I didnt know cooper tape could help with snales. Do you have any suggestion to snales in the garden? Love from portugal
You’ll find masses of control ideas online, so do check. Personally I try and encourage predators…. I actually found a frog among my strawberries today while picking fruit so this would be helping. I also pop out with a torch every evening and do a quick tour of the garden and usually catch a few. Beer traps and similar traps can help. I place upturned saucers around my crops and check underneath them each morning. They often have slugs under them. Hope these suggestions help.
I have a pot of aeoniums which I absolutely love but it does struggle indoors on a windowsill over winter even though i give it the best light i can. I have wondered about putting it into an unheated greenhouse but i am not sure I'm brave enough. where are you in the UK? Do you fleece yours or hring it inside the house if it is especially cold? Thank you
Yes they do grow towards the light and get leggy if you grow them indoors. I’ve tried this in the past but now prefer to keep them in my unheated greenhouse over winter. They’re watered very occasionally. If extremely cold or snowy weather is forecast then covering with a tent of fleece adds an extra layer of protection. This has worked for me in the north of Cambridgeshire.
I've bought pots from lots of different garden centres and suppliers over the years. I always choose Frost Resistant Terracotta pots, although some are better than others. My biggest terracotta pots came from a wonderful pot manufacturer called Whichford Pottery, and their pots are excellent, and have lasted for many, many years.
I’m not sure what benefit having sticky leaves and stems would have, but plants develop the way they do for a very good reason. It does make dead heading slightly more difficult, but it is essential. I wonder if any other viewers have an explanation. Do post if you do.

Beautiful pots and flowers, They are the bees knees.
Yes they are! Thank you so much. Lovely to share them with everyone.
Oh my goodness!!! Didn’t realize lily pollen was dangerous for cats! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!🐈❤️
Yes, it’s worth being cautious growing lilies if cats visit your garden.

Isn't 'Taiga' a lovely clematis. I haven't grown it but do love it. Perhaps one day I'll find a spot for it.
Thank you so much

Thanks. There was so much more I could have included, but that will have to wait for another time!
Beautiful plants, thanks for sharing, it would be nice if you mention the zone they grow thanks

Gorgeous 🎉
Thank you! 😊
Totally beautiful .
Thank you! 😊
Очень большая работа!💪👍
What a beautiful garden.. what zone are you in in comparison with North America's planting zone...
I think the hardiness zone of my area of central England is Zone 8. Not sure if you use the same hardiness zone scale in North America, but hope this helps.
Absolutely beautiful how often do you water and feed Adam

How do you keep them winter time? They are so beautiful in pots... love your garden..
Some pots of the hardy varieties like hosta stay outside, some pots like Eucomis and agapanthus are moved to my unheated greenhouse to provide some protection, while some of the tender things like petunias are discarded and added to my compost heap. I try and keep and protect as much as I can.
Hi thanks for that,I have a question for you,when you grow your roses do you cover the graft of the rose or leave it just above the soil,😊
Glad you enjoyed my video. On your roses question I was always taught NOT to cover the graft/budding point on roses or other plants, shrubs, trees, fruits, etc. below this point is the rootstock, and the roots of this provide the support and sustenance for the variety grafted/budded above. I always keep this point ABOVE soil level and never bury it.
@@Adams-Gardening-Guides thanks I’ve always done the same glad I’m not wrong.
I would love to know what the fuchsia marble sized berry looking plant at the 53:38 time is Please? Just Beautiful!
This is a plant I grow for its winter berries called Pernettya mucronata or also sold as Gaultheria mucronata. There are varieties in different colours. Some varieties are only female so will only produce berries in their second year if they are pollinated by a male, but other varieties are self-fertile. Aren’t they lovely.
I bought petunia Night Sky several years ago, and as the year progressed, the variagration regressed to almost solid purple.
Interesting. Personally I still haven’t grown to like this variety, but thankfully there are lots of others to choose from.
You have a beautiful garden. My geraniums don't do too well in California in the summertime. Do you have any tips .
Thank you. Pelargoniums usually enjoy hot summer conditions, in full sun. They can tolerate dry conditions but I find they prefer regular watering, but not kept constantly wet. Regular dead heading is essential too. Either mix a slow-release fertiliser into compost at planting time or mix a high-potash feed in when watering. Good luck!
Can you tell us your fertilizing schedule?
Hi Pamela. You'll see through the video how I regularly mix slow-release fertiliser granules into the compost at planting time, so do try this as it removed the need to develop a feeding regime.

Can you show me the name of purpose that you use for pots please. Thank you so much.

Deve ser muito interessante,,,, é pena não ter tradução em português
Where do you get your pots please
I've bought pots from lots of different garden centres and suppliers over the years. I always choose Frost Resistant Terracotta pots, although some are better than others. My biggest terracotta pots came from a wonderful pot manufacturer called Whichford Pottery, and their pots are excellent, and have lasted for many, many years.
Why are petunia plants sticky
I’m not sure what benefit having sticky leaves and stems would have, but plants develop the way they do for a very good reason. It does make dead heading slightly more difficult, but it is essential. I wonder if any other viewers have an explanation. Do post if you do.
