FYI John Nov. 6th wasn't such a bad day, it was my 80th birthday and I have been gardening at my home that I've lived in for over 50 yrs. I live in the PNW, one of the best places in the U S to garden. Love all your videos John, please keep teaching us, thank you!
Hi John! My wife and I are the Americans that got to meet you at your garden center at the very end of September, and we had a nice political conversation with you and your friend who brought you tomatoes. The intro to this video made us laugh because it took us back to our conversation with you and your friend. It was the last thing we expected to have a conversation about while visiting Ireland, but it was an immense pleasure meeting you and we hope we can run into you again at your garden center whenever we visit Ireland again.
Hi John! Greetings from NY Queens. Nice to see you out n about in the garden educating us once again. Loved your perception on wind & Mother Nature pruning… very true. The eucalyptus tree at the end is stunning 😍.
I've always wanted a mixed border, but now have settled for shrubs and a few plants that will survive weather and wildlife. It's taken years of trials but I'm winning. Centaurea grows like a weed here, and pulmonarias haven't been eaten. Snow soon. Thanks John.
Dear John, so happy to get a new video! I check regularly just in case YT is not showing when you post. (I do have the notification bell on). It’s a welcome distraction from the enormous and unfathomable calamity that we aren’t talking about. I won’t be able to watch the news for the next 4 years, and the garden is wonderful for bringing peace, but unfortunately, the timing is bad as it’s dark and rainy outside here in the Pacific Northwest at this time of year so it’s not helping as much as it might. 😊
Great catching a right up to date video John,I’m so impressed how you can remember all the names of the plants.Have a great Christmas, and New Year. See you in the spring.
Good to see you again John. I live on the east coast of USA in New Jersey and when I say I haven't the faintest idea what the hell happened I mean I do but am so bewildered.... among other emotions..ahem... and so to the garden or the very least outside is a life affirming necessity for me. Oh except for the major drought we are experiencing....yeah...um..so.... Very good to see you you bring a smile to this face.
Pampas are pretty much reviled here in Oz. They were planted in the seventies and were just too happy, bit like the rabbits. Can’t have enough cotinus though, ours are just now hitting their straps, hard pruned for best effect. Love your garden John, hope to visit one day.
Your garden is looking beautiful, thank you for the advice for my steep banks I feel more confident with my plans now - the plants I got from your garden centre are really luscious and strong they are taking well here in wicklow hills
Hi John, Beautiful autumnal colours in your garden! I moved my vibernum under some light shade, it's growing very well now. They don't like dry hot spots....I'd move your as it's still small enough to transplant. Water it well after mulch for a few weeks and it will love you back.😊 Jo.
We just love John lord we just love watching you and we love gardening 🧑🏻🌾.We love Ireland of Irelands we would love to meet you sometime we love the Irish people are just wonderful.Will enjoy watching you hopefully it won’t be so long next time.We need you to brighten up the winter months.Till next time.☘️☘️☘️☘️🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🤶🤶🤶🤶🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🧑🏻🌾🧑🏻🌾🧑🏻🌾🧑🏻🌾🧑🏻🌾🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
I have to remove all my verbascum Southern Charm, simply too seedy. Not worthwhile for the blooms. It keeps coming back if a chunk of the taproot remains, ugh. You should add dye to the water of the pampas, and see if the color will show up like for carnations and roses etc. My season is too short to get any seed heads, so you have to experiment for us.
So sad that not all of us are able to use our self control and NOT make any political comments on this lovely video. I always deadheaded my roses but was told not to do it or the plants wouldn’t get the message that it is time to shut down for winter. (Upstate NY, USA). I don’t like the way it looks though. In Riverdale, NYC the streets have many giant Sweet Gums, or Liquidamber styracifolias which I think is silly because the sidewalks get filled with the spherical fruits which can easily cause sprained ankles.

Your videos definitely have a purpose. They brighten my day.
Yes. The gardens are where we go to escape politics, especially the immense disappointment and bafflement . 💙 Thank you for another delightful video.

Thank you for all of your videos. They keep me going over the Winter months and help with my gardening withdrawal symptoms.

I just love these videos always so much knowledge and beautiful plants and garden
Thanks for giving us in the US a bit of escape from no political talk!😊
Love this man, gives excellent advice 👏
The cotinus really looks beautiful year round.
Really enjoyable video, yet again John. Like your impulsive style…..mine too.

My viburnum plicatum is flowering too here in Surrey

Paulowina trees are so invasive here in Georgia. I can not keep them under control. I would kill that thing. 😅 Love the video as always! Thank you!
my lupins and calendular and poppys sown are still flowering im puzzled me haha but not complaing of the bloomsx
Had me at not doing any gardening, just a little.🇨🇦

It was a great day John. No liberal plants. lol.
How did your Gunnera fare?
Just OK.
Trees like being smudged as well. Bonfires are an essential part our ecosystem
Thank you for no politics from the former USA.

Paulownnias are awesome ❤
My salvia Amistad is flowering beautiful. Don't mention the chemtrails whatever you do a😂
We could talk about TRUMPet vines?
Don’t even mention that name!
