Great video. And I have to say that pink looks beautiful on you. I love your porch background area. It's just beautiful. I am very looking forward to your ground cover videos. I am trying to learn about groundcovers and companion planting. I want to put something down around my roses that are in a raisedbed. I also have a shade bed that I have mulch in, but I would like to be able to replace the mulch with ground cover. So yes, i'm looking forward to that. This video was very informative, and I learned a lot of new plants that I was not aware of, so thank you for this video.❤❤
You are so welcome, thank you for letting me know about wanting to see the video about the ground covers. I will be sure to do that one soon too. I do like to feature plants that are not the everyday selections so folks know there are a LOT of varieties out there and you just need to find out which will do very well for you in your area.
For another great garden tour today my dear friend always enjoy coming by and seeing what you’re sharing I have some of the most beautiful irises I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing them with us so many beautiful colors and varieties.
That area looks beautiful! I have Candy Corn Spirea and after transplanting them last fall I love the way they look. I first planted them in a dry, full sun area and they didn't like it one bit. Now they only get sun in the afternoon and are performing so much better.
Hello there dear flower patch lady, ohhhh!,lovely lovely hardy geraniums, I love them so much too.i see your Japanese maple 🍁 s too.i have 2 one of each colour, I keep in pots, my mum and dad had given me few years ago.i had to repot couple days ago, my pot was narrow at the bottom and suddenly started tipping over in the wind. all sorted now. Fox gloves gorgeous too.hmmm.i get so enthusiastic with watching your beautiful videos. Its so good to remember we can move things around. Xxthankyou so much for all your help full advice too.xx going to watch again now. Love to you and your chickens from me and mine 😊xx
I have quite a few Japanese Maples and I am trying to get them into the landscape though I have enjoyed them on my back deck for years. Yes, the knowledge that I can move something helps as I get indecisive from time to time.
Thank you so much for, not only the list of common names, but for the details of varieties and the differences. I added several to my list of "want to try" plants. Thank you!!
Great info Pam! Surprisingly we share a number of the plants you listed and I am in Zone 4, guess that’s why I like your videos 👍 you are so relatable ❤️ Also, I can never get too much information on ground covers so would love to see a video on them. Thank you so much Pam, Brenda🇨🇦
Hello there again dear pam,oh most of the plants today are all my favourite s,its so inspirational truly, I watched again the erigeron,yes here uk,southwest, it grows anyway it fancy s,it loves stoney, rocky area s too.i have some that gets bigger each year, my best friend jen,I met when married, my husband since I was 19,I met jen she has now sadly passed nearly 2 years ago. We used to go to plant sales when she visited, she bought me some tiny little plugs,they live very happy in my 2 stone planter out front.however they have spread and I just love them so much. Same as forget me knots.mine got a bit low for some reason. 😊thankyou so much, lovely video sxxbye for nowxxme and my garden girls 🐔. Xx
Friend how about that Hybrid cultivar, since you mentioned it for Papaver orientalis 'Picotee' which is mainly white with Orange trim...its do damned gorgeous....and alot of places carry it especially at Fall Planting time. I see it mingling readily with your Iris, Salvia, Verbascum, and Roses!
I’ve been taking seed stalks from various plants and throwing them out in the unwatered field next to my garden to see what can survive. Just started so no results yet but I have high hopes for lupine verbascum and foxglove
That is basically how I sow many seeds as well. Some years differ from others as to what will come up. So keep on doing it and it is a grad surprise each year.
I was Sooo hoping to see lupines this year-don’t think it’s happening. I started the bluebonnets this year also. The Mullien I started last year (Swallowtail’s-Katie’s Candles and Southern Charm) are blooming this year. I thought they were taller and hollyhocks may crowd them. My flower stalks though are not as thick as yours-maybe soon, but they are a gorgeous delicate flower. I guess I was thinking about those monster wild yellow ones we have. The dianthus love the sand here and seem happy in shade or sun. My favorite this year is the penstemon! They are a beautiful color of pinks and purple and by accident are growing very nicely at the base of the new Josephine clematis and both complement each other. The new roses are all growing and some started blooming. ‘At Last’ rose just started and a Gorgeous orange and bit of yellow with Devine scent. Apparently this rose is tuff and I planted it full sun in the new drier end of bed and it’s loving it. Have no idea why the cannas aren’t, but we had a ton of rain the past 2 weeks and now it’s cooled off and some need heat-things are looking a bit off. From one extreme to the next here. I’m sure I will have a jungle before long as I started many flats of new flowers annuals and perennials. The poppies I have to learn how many to pull out and deadhead as they are taking over. The Butterfly Milkweed is taking cues from poppies also 🙄. Have a hollyhock that thinks it’s a tree. You have gophers which we got rid of, but now the coon and skunk are digging under fences and the coon got a rooster-can’t have that! The other 3 roosters are distraught. We now have to lock them up at night. We set up a trail cam and seen how the nocturnals returned for one last time. They even dug under the garden fence 🤬. We’ve never had that before. I don’t have the wherewithal to dig down deep to bury fencing and I need it high to keep deer out. I need more flower room, but fencing is part of the prep work. Maybe I should just plant foxgloves and Spilanthes (toothache plant) everywhere and see if they like that 🤔😆. Loved the chat Pamela! We do have almost identical growing conditions Z5a, WI. Oh, so hoping more new Columbine make it. Had a pink show up this year and just planted seedlings of a variegated leaf called Leprechaun from Bakers Creek and Jupiter’s beard I started from seed and not sure if I put the packet in the fridge for a couple weeks, but they did well and think they were White Cloud from Swallowtail. The wild columbine started in the sun are definitely growing stronger along with astilbe as the young oak nearby provides more shade-definitely a big difference.
Wow, the White Cloud is the one I tried too. It did germinate but I think it was lost with all the ones that got spider mite on year. I do seem to struggle with that in the greenhouse. I was told I should fog it with this new rosemary and clove oil spray I have. The fog gets into the crevices better than just spraying. Well, the White one I have is doing great so I know I can divide it in the Fall. My milkweed has been spindly and weak, not sure it is going to make it. Oh dear about the rooster. Those rodent raccoons are a menace! I have had to trap and relocate plenty here. We have a resident skunk that is really smelling up the place and we are trying to find where it is nesting to block it out and hopefully encourge it to move on. Trapping skunks is tricky business. Well, trapping is easy, it is the relocating that is tricky!
@@FlowerPatchFarmhouse our DNR says there are too many skunk, raccoon, feral cats, possums and to destroy them. No one coon hunts anymore and they are a menace. Sorry for those that don’t believe that, but they do carry disease and too many of any animal/rodent population the worse it gets. I should have known better quite a while ago when the roosters were crowing at 1am. Try horticultural oil on mites, just not in the sun.
Love my hummingbirds, they are always chirping away and whizzing by me in the garden. Great video, I have the same Southern Charm Verbascum that you have and it comes back every year, a lovely plant but often flops, any suggestions?
In this world full of evil -- so peaceful to watch your flower/nature conversations!
Thank you!
I cannot agree more: so calming and peaceful channel! And so so much to learn from!
What a great reference and resource for building a cottage garden.
Thank you, I hope many find it helpful!
Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome, I do enjoy it!
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Great video and plant selections, They are the bees knees.
Yep, and the bees love them all too!
@@FlowerPatchFarmhousethe bumblebees and others were really crazy for sage when it bloomed-just humming with them.
Thank you for this wonderful video! I am starting to watch for the 2nd time!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful garden. Cottage garden is my idea of a perfect garden.
Me too. So much charm but not rigid in perfect lines, or weed free. A touch wild while being pleasing to the eye.
For another great garden tour today my dear friend always enjoy coming by and seeing what you’re sharing
I am so glad you enjoyed it!
I wouldn't be without my peonies. I grow the tree peonies, itoh and herbacous. I love cottage gardens. I will have to try verbascum! Bonny zone 5b
The gophers ate my one tree peony. I loved that thing and it was given to me by a dear friend who passed away a few years ago. I was so mad.
@@FlowerPatchFarmhouse I don't have a gopher problem but rabbits. Someone said if you but gravel around your plants they won't bother them as much.
thank you for sharing. enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching

Mine seem to flop too so I give it some support. Either a stake or cage.
Next time can you put the names on the screen! Thanks
I am working on a blog post which will have all the names.
