dear Laura, thank you for what you do, your enthusiasm and the joy you bring to us, you are a blessing to a lot of people, l just want ypu to know we appreciate yours efforts and the one of your beloved husband, take care and do not change we love you the way you are
I really enjoy your videos. You're extremely straight forward and informative w/o interjecting non pertinent fluff. Even though I've been gardening for well over 30 years, I'm still learning. And isn't that the way it should be? Thanks again. :)
I love your videos. My mother was an avid gardener and I never thought I’d be interested... until I watched your channel. Now I find myself watching your videos over and over and learning and remembering some of the things I’ve seen my mom do. I started to dabble a little in my yard this summer and now look to your videos to know how row plan for fall and next year. Thanks for my new hobby! Lol!
I am so happy that I watched this video! Now I know what to cut back and what to leave. Thank you for your gardening knowledge that you share with everyone.
Great video! Thanks for talking about leaving some plants up for wildlife. Some butterflies overwinter on plants, their cocoons look like dried leaves and fireflies overwinter in fallen leaves. I will cut back my hostas and throw the leaves in the compost, I didn't know slugs would overwinter on them. I have five chickens and they will eat the slugs and tear up the leaves. Another person commented on using the chop & drop method of composting. That is what I have done for years, it's easier than lugging stuff to the compost pile. I do tuck what I drop in where it can't be seen, it's so easy! Lots of great information, thanks again!
Thank you for this video. Motivating and inspiring. You are a sweetie. Great advice about leaving the dying plants lay, which feeds the soil. I use the 'chop & drop' method all season long on my beds. During the growing season I tuck the deadheaded pieces under the plants so I don't see the debris and it looks more tidy. In the centers of my gardens (where one does not see the 'chop & drop' ) I just let it lie where it falls. Feeding the soil organically is GREAT. Thank you for sharing your passion.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I can always rely on you! It’s January and I didn’t know if I messed up by not cutting back my honeysuckles and other shrubs. I feel much better now!
I am so happy that I found your channel. We bought our first home last year and I have no idea what to do. Spring is coming and the flower bed look horrid. Your channel is teaching me and giving me ideas.
Sooo very helpful. I am just getting ready to go outside and address my perennials. I may leave more intact until spring. I usually cut all down and cover the crowns with leaves. I will leave some until spring and see how they fare over our long Wisconsin winter. Thanks for all of your help!
I’ve found that using a serrated steak knife makes it a lot faster and easier when taking down plants in the fall. It saves your hand and forearm from all the clipping motions! I buy them at Goodwill for cheap and have them for years.
I like a neat garden in winter then when spring comes I don't have to walk around all my spring bulbs trying to cut things down everything comes back just fine
Ha ha, I did not need to cut back my hostas in my new home. Shortly after I planted them out front, the deer or rabbits had lunch. I moved the two remaining leaves and roots to the fenced backyard and added mesh fencing above the wood fence and plugged all the low level holes under the fence. Te hostas is behind a Rhododendron next to my house. I hope it grows nicely there.
Thank you so much for the information, it was excellent! I wasn’t sure what to prune back in the fall or the spring, since I’m a fairly new gardener, so your video clip was not only educational it inspired me 😄 thank you again✨🇨🇦✨
You are glowing you beautiful 😍 Your videos are a source of relaxation for me although I don't have the space to apply the knowledge but still I love watching them. You guys are my favorite and sweetest channel/page that I follow on any social media platform. So lovely, sweet and genuine. Much love 😘
Laura, I really like how you share some advanced garden technique with really basic stuff like, "The old stuff comes from underneath, not from the old stems" because, let's face it, most of us could use all the help we can get. :) Thank you.
Great piece. I was wondering about this as we approach the middle of Oct here in Mn. I've always tended to clean up the perrenials in the fall by just mowing over them . This year I will be leaving them be. Thanks so much.
Soo many wonderful projects, nice to see things evolving. Can't wait to see the beautiful potting shed in the orchard, it will be so beautiful with all the windows. Looking forward to the spring when the Hartley is done, new trees in the grass, bulbs flowering and NEW videos👍👍👍
This video was so helpful! Planted some perennials for the first time this spring and was wondering what to cut back and what to leave. Thanks for the tips!
Please guys plan a vlog or video of the dried seedheads of perennials covered in snow ❄️ or frost in the winter. It would be awesome to see that. Cheers*
I have a geum chiloense red dragon I planted in a large flower pot. I live in Minnesota so I stored it in my garage over winter since it's zone 5 and I'm in a zone 4. Brought it back out once spring temps were okay but haven't seen any new growth yet. When does new growth start with geums? I did cut the geum back in fall before storing away for winter. Hoping the plant didn't die. First time geum grower.
Very helpful! What about hydrangeas? Also when Day Lilly’s have those dry stems, do you cut them or pull them out? Thank you, I learn so much from you!
You know what would be a great video idea because I can’t find it anywhere- how to plant an ivy. Like how close to a wall and how do you get Star Jasmin to grow along a wall or does it absolutely need something to climb on. I’m completely new at this and can only find info on how pretty it is and how to take care of an established plant but nothing on how to start.
GoodandDelicious Ivy isn't a problem in all areas. You need to see how a plant clings to be able to know what it needs. some vines twine their tips, some grab on with their petiole(the stem of the leaf twists around the wire or twig. A real ivy has holdfasts. A plant with holdfasts is the only one that will climb a brick wall unaided. Climbing hydrangeas also have holdfasts. Use google images to see what they look like. Also google something like, "How do different vines climb?"The jury is still out on whether these vines ruin your brick. Wisteria will pry under your roof tiles. This I know personally.
Great video -- I use a serrated knife for my cutting. Much to my surprise, what I thought I planted were Shasta Daisies turned out to be Montauk daisies. I'm amazed how large these grew only after 1 year being planted as $2 end of season clearance items from Lowe's Garden! I now need to move these as they're crowding out my boxwoods. I do see small green buds on the lower stem for next years growth. How far back would you recommend cutting these stems?? I plan on moving them in spring.
chris57de-Before they start growing, our they'll look bad. Keep an eye on the base down by the ground. If you see growth starting-hurry! I do mine in spring. All grasses start growing at different times. If you have a cool growing grass, they start early, so be vigilant.
Thx for this video, I'm a newbie gardener with potted plants, ( my soils not deep here in Manchester uk.. I got a nepita this spring and I'm trying to find out if I should do anything now we're in autumn ( fall) to get it ready for winter. Any advice would be truly awesome . Thx again. X
Laura, I love your videos! I am going to try to follow your advice and hopefully my garden will look as beautiful as yours. I just moved into a new house with a huge back yard that needs a major overhaul and I am new to gardening so I need all the help I can get. The old owners also left me a composting bin. Should I get rid of all that is in there or leave and use next spring? I hope you can make a video on recycling. Thanks! :-)
What about hydrangeas that have spots on them? Seem to get those fungal looking spots every August or so... but previously told DO NOT cut until spring. I have French-looking hydrangea and Oak Leaf hydrangea.
What about hydrangeas in Wisconsin for winter?! Someone said to only cut the tops of the flowers off and not the buds, but my boss at work they cut theirs down to the ground and they come back next year fine. I just planted mine this spring though. 😩 Do i just take the flower tops off and cover with a frost cover? Or do i cut it to the ground and cover with mulch?
I didn't realize heuchera were semi evergreen. I still have some that I need to out in the ground! Trying to decide on a good spot with the right amount of sun. I thought they were for shade but I saw online that they need some sun. Now I'm confused!
Aileen Maglalang It sounds weird, but I use beer. I buy super cheap saucers from Goodwill and fill it with cheap beer.Set it beside the plants that slugs feast on, like hostas.The slugs and snails go in the beer at night when they're active and die. It's pretty gross in the morning. Doesn't cost much and doesn't hurt the birds and other animals.
Actually what works is beer. I put some in a low container and put it out by my plants and the slugs go in and drown. Just need to change it if it rains.
There are several brands of safe slug bait. They don't hurt wildlife and you don't have to deal with saucers of dead slimy slugs. The one I use is SLUGGO and SLUGGO PLUS(plus means it kills some other bad bugs too). Look at the ingredients list. Iron sulfate is a safe ingredient. It dissolves into fertilizer and won't hurt other animals.
If those were my hostas, I would of assumed they were dead and pulled them out by the roots and in the bin they would of went, lucky I watch Garden Answer 🙂
This is also a great way to acquire plants from garden centers like Lowes. They heavily discount their not so healthy looking plants that if repotted promptly and treated with love come back strong and healthy in the spring.
Wow. First bulbs, tubers, etc are in a different category altogether. But I never heard of just because a plant does not look alive does not mean its bulb,tuber, or even roots are dead. Plants have dormancy in Fall and Winter. I guess I learned in school.
That kneeling pad in the video...Laura actually lost that one and replaced it with this one: Your friend has shared a link to a Home Depot product. The Pad 15-inch x 20-inch Foam Kneeling Pad www.homedepot.ca/product/earth-edge-the-pad-15-inch-x-20-inch-foam-kneeling-pad/1001004932 I order it and it is just as Laura said it would be.

Hi Laura, I have some hosta's in ceramic en terracota pots on my roofpatio. They also turned yellow a few weeks ago and I was wondering if it would be the same cutting process for them, as they are in pots and not in full ground. What would you recommend? Sarah
I sowed Lupin per instructions late September and now are up an inch! I’m assuming they won’t survive our Montreal winters! Is there any way I can protect them?
i had 8 planters full of mounding perennial dianthus. last fall i cutback 6 of the planters close to the ground. none of them have grown anything so far as of today. are they dead or should i wait few more weeks? the two planters i did not cut back actually bloomed entire winter and now even more this time.
I have a honeysuckle vine that got powdery mildew this last summer. I didn't cut it back but do you think I should? I usually wait until spring and then just prune back anything that didn't survive winter.
When it was healthy I never had to cut it back and it just kept getting bigger and bigger. This year though, I am concerned about it dying back and possibly spreading powdery mildew to other plants if I don't. If I chop it down, will it die? Help Laura!

I agree with Jay’s comment. Very well done. A minimum of blather is always great.
Thank dear Laura! I love your videos! You answer so many of my questions and inspire my gardening efforts! You feel like family! Gardening hugs! ❤️

Most Beautiful comment ever!!! Blessing to you 🌼
You'll become addicted soon😌
skip to 4:00 to watch her cut the plant.
Thank you Laura, this was very educational for beginners like me.

For sure Megan. Exacto knives as well. So much easier to make one swooping motion than cutting, especially if you're doing it all day long!
Gonna give it a try. Thank u for the tip
Smart
You're doing great!
I also use a bread knife for these purposes.
I like a neat garden in winter then when spring comes I don't have to walk around all my spring bulbs trying to cut things down everything comes back just fine

I’m another one watching you from Greece!
Yes, I agree! So. Infusing what to with hydrangeas, especially if you have multiple types.

Would love triple double late tulips.
Thanks Laura. Love your videos!

Could you do a video on pruning and winterizing hydrangeas please?
Petitti's garden center has a good one. Their videos are awesome.
Yes, and Rose of Sharon and Butterfly Bushes as well!
Could you advise on pruning and winterizing plumbago and roses?
Don't touch... dead head if you wish.
I love your channel! I am a timid gardener, at best, but you are quickly becoming my favorite UA-camr! Thanks for the beautiful, informative videos!
Soo many wonderful projects, nice to see things evolving. Can't wait to see the beautiful potting shed in the orchard, it will be so beautiful with all the windows.
Looking forward to the spring when the Hartley is done, new trees in the grass, bulbs flowering and NEW videos👍👍👍
You look absolutely wonderful!
Exactly what I do in my zone 5 garden. Thanks for sharing, Laura.
love your videos.lots of love from Greece
This video was so helpful! Planted some perennials for the first time this spring and was wondering what to cut back and what to leave. Thanks for the tips!
i went ahead and purchased the kangaroo pop up and love it, thank you
You got me at the zone 5 comment.😁
Please guys plan a vlog or video of the dried seedheads of perennials covered in snow ❄️ or frost in the winter. It would be awesome to see that. Cheers*
Great video! I recently purchased the Fiskars kangaroo pop up bag from Amazon and I love it. Thank you so much for the suggestion.

It is so rare to see you wearing gloves. Thanks for videos.
Fall pruning: phlox, lavender, hostas
Hi Laura I love your channel can you tell me how to take care potted blanket flower in winter
Depends upon the hydrangea. Some hydrangea bloom on old wood.
Shes so gorgeous!
What about hydrangeas. Should we cut them back or leave them and the blooms?
Have an awesome. Leave your plants so the birds can feast
I have learned so much from you!
As always, great video! Thank-you!
Great information that I didn’t know. Thank you
Lots of love from Vietnam
Hmmm... I do not cut back several of those you recommended because they just dry up and disappear on their own...hostas especially!
Do you have recommendations for a notebook or calendar to organize plant tags and care info? I have too much variety to remember it all.
Very helpful! What about hydrangeas? Also when Day Lilly’s have those dry stems, do you cut them or pull them out? Thank you, I learn so much from you!
She has video on this

What is the green basket you use to collect clippings? I use a laundry one and yours looks sturdier. Great series!
hi Laura i enjoyed your video, what do you do with hydrangeas ? They are pretty in the winter but should cut all the heads in the spring. Thanks
Those prenatal vitamins have your hair growing so fast! Beautiful per the usual! 😍😍😍🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
This is 2 yrs old, lol
If you look, you’d see that I commented two years ago when she was pregnant the first time.
@@11jamielee how weird is that! Lol!
Can I cut back the hostas split them and replant in fall
What about roses?
Thank you for your videos I have to tell you that I made your obelisk last night And I love it
Thanks so much for this helpful video!
Can u possibly do a segment on lemon trees/shrubs?
Can you please tell me when I should cut grasses in spring!
chris57de-Before they start growing, our they'll look bad. Keep an eye on the base down by the ground. If you see growth starting-hurry! I do mine in spring. All grasses start growing at different times. If you have a cool growing grass, they start early, so be vigilant.

Can you tell me what plants to plant so I can keep mosquitoes away?
Great video! I live in Wisconsin and was wondering if I should cut my climates back in fall?
What about transplanting is this time good too!
Seems like you got a new camera. It was so clear!! I am so glad to find out what the heck “semi evergreen” means! I get it. Thank you!👩🏻🌾
Laura, I love your videos! I am going to try to follow your advice and hopefully my garden will look as beautiful as yours. I just moved into a new house with a huge back yard that needs a major overhaul and I am new to gardening so I need all the help I can get. The old owners also left me a composting bin. Should I get rid of all that is in there or leave and use next spring? I hope you can make a video on recycling. Thanks! :-)
Thanks 🥰
Thanks for sharing!
What about hydrangeas that have spots on them? Seem to get those fungal looking spots every August or so... but previously told DO NOT cut until spring. I have French-looking hydrangea and Oak Leaf hydrangea.
Thank you sooo much for the valuable information
Any recommendations for savings my mums and especially my geraniums?
Look at Russel as a kitten in the screenshot!!!!! So cute! 🥰
Hi Laura, what about tall grasses? Should I trim in the fall/winter or spring?
She says this about 30 seconds into this video
Thank you Laura!
What about hydrangeas in Wisconsin for winter?! Someone said to only cut the tops of the flowers off and not the buds, but my boss at work they cut theirs down to the ground and they come back next year fine. I just planted mine this spring though. 😩 Do i just take the flower tops off and cover with a frost cover? Or do i cut it to the ground and cover with mulch?
I didn't realize heuchera were semi evergreen. I still have some that I need to out in the ground! Trying to decide on a good spot with the right amount of sun. I thought they were for shade but I saw online that they need some sun. Now I'm confused!
What would you use to treat slugs or snails?
Aileen Maglalang It sounds weird, but I use beer. I buy super cheap saucers from Goodwill and fill it with cheap beer.Set it beside the plants that slugs feast on, like hostas.The slugs and snails go in the beer at night when they're active and die. It's pretty gross in the morning. Doesn't cost much and doesn't hurt the birds and other animals.
Actually what works is beer. I put some in a low container and put it out by my plants and the slugs go in and drown. Just need to change it if it rains.
I was wondering the same thing. I'm having that issue on my back patio. Great tips!
There are several brands of safe slug bait. They don't hurt wildlife and you don't have to deal with saucers of dead slimy slugs. The one I use is SLUGGO and SLUGGO PLUS(plus means it kills some other bad bugs too). Look at the ingredients list. Iron sulfate is a safe ingredient. It dissolves into fertilizer and won't hurt other animals.
Do you split your hostas ever?
is fall a good time to divide some of the hostas?
If those were my hostas, I would of assumed they were dead and pulled them out by the roots and in the bin they would of went, lucky I watch Garden Answer 🙂
This is also a great way to acquire plants from garden centers like Lowes. They heavily discount their not so healthy looking plants that if repotted promptly and treated with love come back strong and healthy in the spring.
Wow. First bulbs, tubers, etc are in a different category altogether. But I never heard of just because a plant does not look alive does not mean its bulb,tuber, or even roots are dead. Plants have dormancy in Fall and Winter. I guess I learned in school.
Ellen Gill
I didn't learn that in school. It's pretty obvious just by observation.
When do you recommend cutting back torch lilies?
I was wondering what your kneeling pad was called and where you got it. I usually just use cardboard but that isn't always the best thing to use.
That kneeling pad in the video...Laura actually lost that one and replaced it with this one:
Your friend has shared a link to a Home Depot product.
The Pad 15-inch x 20-inch Foam Kneeling Pad
www.homedepot.ca/product/earth-edge-the-pad-15-inch-x-20-inch-foam-kneeling-pad/1001004932
I order it and it is just as Laura said it would be. It is super thick and provides a great barrier from the ground surface.
Keep in mind, I am in Canada, you might have go to .com to find it in the USA.
Hope this is helpful.
Laura, thank you for all your outstanding videos! However, some of us are not familiar with plants names and so like in this video, when you rattled off a bunch of plant names in Latin we got lost and thus your not connecting with us. If you could flash a picture pop-up showing us the type of plant you just named that would be a great help! Again thanks for the great videos!
Hi Laura, I have some hosta's in ceramic en terracota pots on my roofpatio. They also turned yellow a few weeks ago and I was wondering if it would be the same cutting process for them, as they are in pots and not in full ground. What would you recommend? Sarah
I'm definitely no Laura but I do work at a garden and I'd say to trim them back the same way as she did :)
I sowed Lupin per instructions late September and now are up an inch! I’m assuming they won’t survive our Montreal winters! Is there any way I can protect them?
Enjoyed, thank you for sharing.
Thank you! So helpful as always!! 🙏🏿😍😍
For fans of Darkwing Duck, “Dr. Slug” was Darkwing’s unseen arch-nemesis and public enemy #1 of St. Canard.
How about hydrangea? I have lots along the house, we always cut them in fall...leave until Spring? :)
what about silver mounds... cut back?
I have hostas in pots and I want to put them in the ground. Can I do that now?
"look, a slug, that's what we want to get rid off" puts the slug back on the ground
nice video and thanks for the tip I well remember that
i had 8 planters full of mounding perennial dianthus. last fall i cutback 6 of the planters close to the ground. none of them have grown anything so far as of today. are they dead or should i wait few more weeks? the two planters i did not cut back actually bloomed entire winter and now even more this time.
I have a honeysuckle vine that got powdery mildew this last summer. I didn't cut it back but do you think I should? I usually wait until spring and then just prune back anything that didn't survive winter.
Vanessa Doell I’m in the same situation! I’ve never grown it before-do you know if you hack it back every year or let it keep going?
in her old house garden video i think she said she cuts it back. watch that video it will help
When it was healthy I never had to cut it back and it just kept getting bigger and bigger. This year though, I am concerned about it dying back and possibly spreading powdery mildew to other plants if I don't. If I chop it down, will it die? Help Laura!
nay282 do you have the link or name of the video? There are so many.
the video is called Garden tour (old house) type it into the search on her home page and you will find it
