  • Finally!! I am ready to plant up the newest garden bed. This one is one I have been wanting to do for a while now. It was the area where we had tons of heavy traffic (think cement trucks, skid-steers etc) all to get in to get the greenhouse up and the hardscape in. Now that we are done with major work it is time to clean up that area (which BTW is right along the driveway into our front yard. It has been dirt and weeds for quite some time now.

    I love your plant choices. Looking forward to watching it mature. Dawn can you please do a video on how you go about organizing your plant tags? I have tons of sandwich bags with tags in them. I even keep the tags of the plants that don’t work out with NO written on them so I don’t do the same mistake of purchasing them again. But it takes me forever to find one specific tag for reference. There’s got to be a better system then the one I have. Have a great day.

    Wow! This video is so so helpful. I use containers because we live in the woods but after seeing your bed I think I could make a small area like this. I’ll still use my pots but some of the salvias would probably grow well in the soil especially if I mulch. So ironic because today I’m sketching out my plans. I’ve got to rearrange my current pots to put them in the best spot for their needs. I love all of your plant choices. I have a few of them and a lot to purchase that you have. I need sun and shade loving plants and flowers. We have two acres so I’ve got plenty of space.

    Hi Dawn! Great segment-so good to see your layout and choice of perennials. If it looks half as good as your spring selection, it will be superb! In this bed, will you plant any flowers that bloom in the fall? It doesn’t look like there would be room for them. Love your climbing hydrangea; your gardens are a feast for the eyes everywhere you look! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us!

    • @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn
      @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn  Рік тому +1

      Thank you Janice!! All of the hydrangeas in the back of the bed should provide some color throughout fall. But I will not be adding perennials that bloom in fall though the echinacea blooms thru September. Keep in mind that our home is surrounded by a prairie and fall is when the grasses look so nice and the asters will be blooming,

    I'm envious of how easy it is to dig holes in your soil! I'm in New England and I would have at least four big rocks to dig out of each hole! I enjoyed the video and can't wait to see how it grows!

    • @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn
      @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn  Рік тому

      Wow that’s a lot of rock!! That auger did throw up several large rocks but just a few. Makes home digging so much easier!! I did notice our soul in this area was hard and had clay in it so I’m glad we dug the large homes.

    • @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn

      Yes the woods also belong to us. About 6 acres of woodland. I have a nice trail through it and spring is the best time to see all the Wisconsin native flowers but after that it gets VERY thick!! Most years. if you think you’re going to walk through the woods, you do it at your own risk because you might be carried away by mosquitoes lol.

    I love seeing these garden projects from start to finish! It helps understanding why your beds look so incredible in the tours😂. Do you today place a large order with a garden center or order all of them online; any tips on making large orders for brand new beds?

    • @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn
      @SeasonalDesignsbyDawn  Рік тому

      I’m happy these are helpful! Right now I get my plants from a local grower. But for these large beds I think you need to order online well ahead of your planting time. You might be able to do the same with a local garden center who could order in for you. The key is to plan ahead as all the places plan far ahead for the next season.
