Griffin’s fur on top of his head reminds me of an ‘80’s new wave or punk rocker hairstyle…he is just too cute. Another great video, thank you!
That made me laugh!
I bursted out laughing when you said “we have two of something” 🌼🐝
Me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣 can’t have 2 LOL
Me three!
We have a small bed of Mystic Spires Salvia that's near the neighborhood sidewalk. Early spring last year it was filled with native and honey bees, along with the smaller butterflies. By mid-May, the bumblebees showed up and didn't leave until well past Halloween. In early December, we had Monarch butterflies in the Mystics, and it was an amazing sight. People walking past the house were taking videos of the Monarchs. Many of them, including the children, had never seen them that close. Because of that, I have been extending our main bed next to the house this year to include some more Mystics, a dwarf butterfly bush (looking for a 2nd variety), and some Agastache. I've become bee and butterfly obsessed after last year's display.
I love the Mystic Spires. Mine were always busy with all sorts of pollinators last year and they are beautiful to look at too. I added a second one into my California Zone 8b/9a garden this year.🥰
🌿 ~You could put a small terrace there in front. Drop in a small area of slate or stone pavers, a beautiful bench or adderondack chairs, some gorgeous glazed pots & have a wondetful (private) patio to sit & enjoy your front garden.😊
🌿🏡🍀🏡🪴🍀
The next video includes the front lawn area going away and it is going to include a seating area. Great minds thinking alike!
Your garden is finally making sense.
I can see how you are allowing space for plants to grow to their best potential.
And having seasonal interest all year round.
I love how it is looking from all the different angles.
Im learning alot from every video now.
It would be lovely for you to draw a diagram of your different garden spaces with the plants you have now, and what type of soil and sun direction, so we can get some idea of what we can do in your garden rooms.
Loving these latest videos and learning a heck, Jo.
I’d love to see that in the learn to Garden site.
Ooooo! I love that black chair!!! Reminds me of summer evenings sitting in the backyard at my grandparents house, my parents and grandparents talking and visiting, my sister, brother and myself chasing lightening bugs. (fireflies) Mamaw and Papaw had those chairs, and a metal glider. Staying a week at a time with them on summer vacation, helping Mamaw shell peas into a metal bowl on that glider. 💕🌸💜 That tap they had way out near the garden with a metal ladle that hung there on a nail and you could just get yourself a little ladle full of ice cold well water. There was a sand track for my brothers gocart. You could get really hot in the North Carolina sun on a go cart! Maybe THAT explains my obsession with always having a variety of garden furniture!! There was a porch swing on the front porch, and rocking chairs. With the intoxicating scent of boxwoods and sweet bubby bush. I remember a Monster butterfly bush she had. And she made fresh biscuits and cornbread every day. The birds and squirrels got their breakfast from her hand in the mornings of the leftovers. Wow! That’s a lot from a simple black metal chair. ☺️
These are my favorite type of videos from your channel! Thank you.
Mine too! I love to watch people work in their garden!
Same, great inspiration!
Working today to get bedding plants in the ground ahead of the promised rain tomorrow. Weeding out seedlings of unwanted (smilax, honeysuckle, Virginia creeper etc) plants then I will mulch. Knocking out little pockets of garden areas that were neglected in last summer’s heat and humidity. So far this has been a glorious spring.
The house and garden is looking so fresh and pretty!
Fragrant native azaleas are a treasure wherever they are found.
Good boy Griffin! 👍🏼
Really enjoying these assortment videos - that's what's going on in my garden, getting plants in the ground, moving some things where they'll be happier, and working on my big project for the year - **MAINTENANCE** (weekly garden planner is helping!)
Your garden is really coming in to its own this Spring. Love all the unique shrubs and perennials you’ve introduced. Inspiring me to start digging out some mature things in our yard that aren’t bringing enjoyment anymore. Hope to find one of those Autumn Lilac Encore Azaleas. Love the habit especially with what you have around it.
Such a pretty, pretty garden.
This is a silly comment but; the branch sticking out on the porch side of the Sugar Cookie Viburnum (right side, as I look at it) -- makes my pruning fingers itch. There must have been a horticulturally-sound reason you kept it on there, right?
No, I got it afterwards. Just working and talking at the same time.
Your home reminds me of mine. Same style pretty much, same era and same mailbox. It's nice having the letter carrier come up to the house!
Thank you Jim! I am always buying plants or trees and my friends say where are you going to plant it? Now I have. new answer for them....The right place will present itself ❤🌼
Perfect spot for that native azalea!
I love those sun glow azaleas. Those are gorgeous. So glad you showed it.
First video I’ve seen of Griffon not tearing through the garden. You guys must have found the CALM switch. 😊
I just transplanted 2 mature shrubs from my garden to my neighbor’s. It went a lot better than I expected! They were too big for the space I had planted them so now I have a great opportunity to try something new!
Your house and yard look beautiful! I like the house color and new front porch :)
With all the shrubs and trees you move around -you really need a ‘root slayer’. I can easily dig out big boxwoods, grasses and hosta now and don’t have to wait for my husband (63 and gardening in MI clay)
👍🏼👍🏼
Looking amazing, thank you! 😊
The deciduous Azaleas are a little slow to get going and do require good siting but nothing sweeter. Blessed with a stand of the straight species, such a pretty pink and fragrant! Had the Wisteria and Ivy not encroached, they're would be many more. There's also Sweetshrub. Natives deserve more attention IMO, they're supposed to be here. We're about at the same 4 year mark, I'd better get busy!
Good job, Griffin! Everything is looking great, Jim and Steph! Man, every time you show that Solar Glow azalea, I get the "wants". If I ever manage to get the woodlet in my back yard cleared out (bush honeysuckle...grrrrrr), I'm going to plant some at the edge.
Beautiful azaleas. I’m wrapping up the anchor plants on our slope (including Oakland Hollies) & adding a Hoselink. Rearranging too. Seems easier for me to have a vision once I’ve had plants in the space.
Thanks Jim and Stephanie. 🪻🌷💚🙃
I have an Autumn Lilac Encore Azalea, too, and I agree that it's a lovely plant!
I love the front of your house now!👏❤️
I declared war on a neighbors Mimosa roots that have invaded my garden. Saws All is my garden buddy!
Love my Encore azaleas and recommend them all the time! You renovation turned out great 👍
If you have deer, watch your Rosalinda Indian hawthorn. As always, thanks for sharing!
Love your azaleas. I cannot grow them zone 5 b v alkaline soil. So I enjoy watching you guys videos at this time to get my fill of azaleas. Also re mulberry. I agree. V hard to get rid of. And thank you for mentioning the snowball viburnum, It was growing huge and sited near my wall so I had to take it down even in 5 b. I appreciate you covering shrubs and how they grow. It is v true that a lot of us plant them in the wrong spot, believing the tag and what tey say about mature height.
I’m glad you said that it took some time for your Solar Glow to bloom well. This is the second year for mine and no blooms. I was worried it was in too much shade. But I’ll give it some more time before I move it. 😊
We are still trying to figure out where to put the Professor Sargent camellia. We decided to keep it and try to find a spot for it. I didn’t want to plant it till next week in case of frost. The azaleas that I moved are bloomed out like crazy. They’re loving life in their new area. Everything is blooming right now and it’s just so exciting.
Looking good and very helpful as we often have to make changes in our gardens. 💐
Hey Jim. I wondered what color you were going to paint your foundation & had thought how a light gray would be soft & yet distinct from the blue & white on the house colors. Right on the money on the color you picked.
(My house is a creamy yellow with white trim & black shutters & roof. Unfortunately the foundation was/ is the original color beige which I’ve never liked but have no clue as to what color would look good.
Always look forward to you video I learn something each time I watch. Thanks
That looked like fun tearing out that Viburnum and moving it.
I’ve planted English lavender from seed back in Jan and have potted them up to 4” pots. I’m trying to get them rooted well enough to pot into my garden. I live in zone 8A central Texas in the limestone hills northwest of Austin by Lake Buchanan. I’ve got salvias and celosias from seed to plant out as well. It gets incredibly hot and dry here in the summer so I’m hoping these will survive and bloom with minimal watering as water is at a premium in our area.
Thank you, Jim. 😊
I wish our mailbox could be that small Jim 😂
Wow, beautiful HortTube man!!! The garden / house is GORGEOUS. You and Steph have done an amazing job 🌳🌳🌳🐕🐕🦺
A corded drill?!?! I didn’t know you collected antiques too!
In your wet spot......itea. Spring flowers, fall color. Check and check.
I like the native Azaleas. Have a few here.
You got a lot done
Another neat video, thanks guys
I have a number of different deciduous azalea cultivars in my garden. Great idea of re-gifting plants! I've done this with some of my houseplants in a neighborhood "free faire" that we have every year. I am also slowly realizing about the notion of "real estate" in one's yard, and making the best use of it. I had the same thing happen, that you had with your Japanese maple, with my 'Yuletide' camellia sasanqua, in that it looks like a deer took a big bite out of a side of it, or maybe it was rutting season and a buck got it's antlers stuck in it!
A QUESTION for you Jim! I'm interested to hear your thoughts as a nursery / plantsman. If cost is irrelevant, what is the optimum size shrub to plant in a garden for impact and growth? I'm in Norfolk, England (approx zone 9).
Jim hopefully you haven't completely given up on figs! Tremendous variation in fruit quality amongst all the cultivars available of which there are hundreds. Timely harvest is essential to the eating experience, 1 day too early or 1 day too late makes a big difference.
It's okay for people to have food preferences. It's one of the few perks of being an adult. 😂
@@GardenKath not sure why you would write that?
@@GardenKath my point was that there's alot of differences between varieties of a type of fruit. Many people will taste one fig, one time and then swear them off for the rest of lives. Is that an adult thing?
@@douellette7960 it was a joking comment, because people tend to really love to tell someone who’s said, “I don’t care for [fill in the blank food]” that they “just haven’t tried the right one”.
OMG!! I wish I was your neighbor, as I can never find free anything on Facebook market place.
Hummingbird top left at around 6:20-6:30 😄
I found some plastic limb spacers (Stark Bros) to train and redirect the young flexible tree limbs that cross and rub. Do you ever use those? If I have to remove limbs, I will. But if I can train them away from each other and keep both limbs that's even better. What are your thoughts on that? Am I wasting my time with the spacers? Also, my landscaper has proposed 3 Azaleas for an upcoming project. We're in high deer pressure area and deer love azaleas. Perhaps he's recommending the new evergreen reblooming varieties, but I've read reports that say those are no safer from the deer than the older varieties. What are your thoughts on that? Thanks so much!! Your yard is coming together so nicely!
Great video, you make moving plants look so easy. Thanks Jim & Steph
TY...
Yes, I made that mistake 15 years ago on a palmatum type that was grafted on a thread-leaf type Japanese maple. Not paying attention, the root stock took over. It is now kept 1t 12’ tall and does have pretty chartreuse leaves until fall when it glows with orange to red leaf colour. Really sorry not to have that Summer Gold, though.
The color and sharpness is really good today. Did you change camera or filters. Looks really good
Haven’t been around for a bit - guess you’re not adding that front deck
Ok Jim, I may have to lay off watching your videos (just kidding - love the content). Every time I watch one I have to go buy at least one of the plants you mentioned. This time it’s the Solar Glow Sunbow Azalea. It’s going to be a great addition to my woodland space. Thanks for showing off this beautiful plant!
I’m glad it isn’t just me who does this!!! LOL
I have rabbits, I suspect, eating my everillo carex down to the ground. Definitely not deer. I need to go cover them so they have a fighting chance.
I have had a Celeste fig for probably 16 years, it looks beautiful right now but it usually has small figs. Does Celeste just have smaller figs than other varieties?
I watched mule deer eat my purple coneflower 😊!
Where did your sunshine ligustrum go?
My azaleas keep getting burned in the winter and have few to no flowers in the spring. What am I doing wrong? 8a Atlanta
My project is trying to address weeding and mulching after the landscaper could not fit me in.
Has anyone had success with transplanting Mayapple from the wild into your landscape? I have an opportunity to do so I just want to know if there are any particulars in doing so.
What is Griffin being trained for?
He is a bolter. We can't trust he will understand his boundaries. ugh
@@stephanycoakley7352 ah gotcha 👍🏻
💙👍🏻💙
I finally got Azalea blooms!!!!! Double white Lily Princess not yet but I got buds and Angel all the white ones are blooming first 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Oh my! The Autumn Lilac is gorgeous!!!!! I can’t believe how gigantic my Lily blooms are 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 22:29
Thanks Jim ,, HAVE YOU GROWN OR KNOW ABOUT TRICOLOR DAPPLED WILLOW I JUST ORDERED 3 but by mistake got 7… I really like them and planted as a hedge around my new border … here in pensacola fl I’m curious if you have info on these bushes/can they be invasive for my zone 8b/9.. I do know they like water sun ect .. I’m planning on growing as a hedge and want to keep them at 3-4 foot high… the ones I received are only 6-8 inches … thanks for all you and Steph bring to us on utube!!! Judy in pensacola fl 🥹
I have to cage a lot of my trees and shrubs because the rabbits will chew them down to nubs in the winter months. Groundhogs are doing a number this spring on the things I didn’t think that I needed to put a cage around. The groundhogs REALLY did a number on a new shrub that I planted last spring, it was doing so well too. I did check the bark near the ground and it still seems to be alive, but I lost all of the growth from last summer. ☹️🪻🌷💚🙃
The birds drop seeds with a little added fertilizer to help them grow. 🪻🌷💚🙃
