    We love spending our time with you Jes because ur a delight to be around, your positive personality and kindness spreads happiness to others. I love that you share your beautiful garden with not just us but with animals too, you are a role model to help others learn to share their gardens with nature. Most gardeners on UA-cam hate wildlife in their garden and want to get rid of them. You understand we share our world with them, like you say they are just hungry and living their life, they don't understand plants cost us money they just be trying to survive. . Yes it's frustrating sometimes but your garden proves you can still have a beautiful garden even with wildlife eating bits of it. I wish everyone could live in harmony with nature like you.

    Hi there Jes, loved the garden tour. Wonderful seeing the raccoon, we don’t have here in Australia. I am also a hosta collector and admire your selection. Mine are now dormant as we are in winter (no snow!!), have frosts. All the best, Suzi.

    Your hydrangeas are stunning. The large hostas and white hydrangeas are showstoppers. Making the bed larger is a great idea. Those surrounding your house will look magnificent. Door County, Wisconsin has large white mop head hydrangeas everywhere. In New England, so many homes use them as foundation plants. It’s like being in a magical kingdom sometimes. You are the finest example of how hard physical labor, dedication and knowledge makes empty woodland spaces turn into lush and lovely garden beds.

    If you want to do an interactive tour, you could do a UA-cam Live and there will be a live chat on the side of the screen. It would be a great opportunity for people to ask questions as you walk through your garden. Have you picked a name yet for your naughty garden?

I have a little garden of my own. As I mentioned earlier I enjoy watching you and your husband Nat . I think you two make a great couple. In my opinion your garden is a work of art, keep up the good work. Love hearing you sing as well. Will be looking forward to your next video. Much love from Canada ❤️

    That Japanese painted fern to the right of your bench and bird bath is huge!! I have 2 of them, and I thought they both died, but they finally started coming up and struggling. I would love for mine to get that big. I have a shade garden that I made inspired by your gully garden! I have a tiny yard, so it's small, but it has lots of different color and texture.

    Jes your gardens are absolutely beautiful, I luv all the colors of you hucheras and hostas!!! I planted a forever red huchera last summer and it seemed to do like it’s spot…however it’s struggling this summer, only has 3 leaves and quite small. I’m going to dig it up, and make an arrangement in a pot like U do!!! It’s in morning sun and afternoon shade. I luv the color of the leaves and don’t want to loose it as they prices this year have gone cRaZy!!!
    Thanks for all your inspiration Jes🫶 Could u explain which hucheras do best in full sun verses shade? Thank you, sweet lady❣️😊🌹

    Hi Jes, you are such an inspiration to all gardeners! Your gardens are truly a labour of beauty and love! I too plant as many perennials which provide the structure to the gardens and accent them with annuals. Thanks for your tours highlighted by your music! 🎸🎶🥰🌸🇨🇦I’m going to see if I can get my annual salvia survive the winter ! Hydrangeas are my favourite such as the Incrediball ( Proven Winners) and other white ones I have discovered from other brands . The glow in the moonlight.
