    This is why most ppl in my neighborhood don’t want gardens. It’s too much work. When I started gardening over two years now… I’m realizing more & more that it’s a conscious commitment. You either love or hate it. This is why I admire your passion Mr. John Lord.

    Not true that you do not interact well with people! It's not just the plants that love you 🙂.In July 2022, on my visit to your garden center from Austin , Texas, I met your wife, your dog and, of course, YOU! You were sociable, fun and a joy to meet. So there!

I try to finish one job before I start another, but of course it never turns out that way, to many distractions in the garden. Looking forward to your next video!

They grow so slow tho that unless if caged every winter, may never get make it to the height they need to be to survive.

    I feel with Ivy like you do with Bamboo! I don't have enough time to keep it cut back. It has taken over my woods and up into my trees. 8 acres of Ivy!! 😳 My neighbor cut his off and brushed straight weed killer on the base. Only way he says he can control it.

      Hi
      Yes i love the way John gardens. He has got a large plot so he seems slapdash but he just gives us an idea of what he is doing. Must be TERRIBLE having the flight path changed. None of us seem to have a say in things anymore. We are just paying humans who are given no regard to how we are handling and helping climate change😁
