Thank you, Lee. I always appreciate your videos. Have a good April. DA
Thanks Donald. Glad the videos are well received! I’ll keep em coming! 🥷🌿🙌
Spring is here!! Yahoooo!
I feel the same!!! 🥷🌿🥳💪🙌
It’s fabulous seeing our gardens coming to life again. I can’t wait to see your wild flower meadow in the summer. My pulmonaris plants are looking lovely and it’s so amazing that they all came from one small plant I was given nearly 40 years ago. After admiring your yellow lamium I bought 3 and they have really multiples and spread so as you said they must be in the correct place in the garden. I love spring in the garden with all the bulbs flowering and so much colour and life, it’s very uplifting. Another great video and soon we will all be eagerly watching you on Garden Rescue. 🤗🥰Mum
Thanks Mum! That Pulmonaria is doing alright for 40 years isn’t it lol. I absolutely love it. Even in summer it’s polka dot leaves always make me smile. Glad you’re enjoying the garden and see you soon! 🥷🙌🌿 xx
Ah Lee. Are you not freezing in that T-shirt! 🥶
Hi Anya. It’s been tropical around here the past two weeks!!! Cold snaps on the way though! 🥷🌿💪
Great video Lee. I especially like how you advised to tie a little piece of string or marker to remind yourself where to prune!
Thanks AJ. Well it can be easy to forget what you’d planned to prune. I often use it as a reminder to myself! Happy gardening. Lee 🥷🌿🤘
Lee, it lovely to see the garden starting to burst into life again. The scent of the Clematis Armandii near the house must be glorious. The pulmonaria look a great too (and theyre slug resistant, a definite bonus in my own garden, lol). And I agree that primroses are just wonderful - they love my clay and I've over the years I've been able to spread the seedlings around the garden and even on the street verges (nice to give the neighbours something to smile about too)
Hi Laurel! Fantastic to hear from you. Sounds like we’re kindred plant sisters!!! Clay is wonderful with the right plants. Often misaligned with nightmare gardens. Birch love clay too!! 🥷🌿🤘
Thanks for the update. I look forward to seeing the garden summer development.
Thanks! It should be a bumper year for flowers and produce!! 🥷🌿🤘
Great update Lee. Love this time of year........spring has sprung! :-)
Hasn’t it just Andrew. All this hope on the horizon! Happy gardening. Lee 🥷🌿🤘
I enjoy watching your channel and seeing what grows. I live in Florida, so its quite different than what we see and what we can grow.
Thanks Marilyn. I’ve visited some fab gardens in Florida. Very different like you say but full of inspiration. Happy Gardening! 🥷🌿🥰
A very informative video Lee. I like the sound of that French Hydrangea. I already have a couple of the Primula Vulgaris. They are indeed lovely. Keep the excellent vids coming.
Thanks Billy! Great to hear from you as a fellow Primula fan! 🥷🌿🙌
That was wonderful lee thank you for that,so looking forward to the progression of the meadow&the hydrangea is a beautiful shrub too! Great work&your designs on Instagram are top notch👌🥷🌻🐝
Awwww too kind RM! I’ve also been filming all of this years Garden Rescue water colour sessions which I’m going to drip feed out over the next year or so. Really going behind the scenes when the designs are shown on Tv! Sharing is caring. Take care. 🥷🌿🙌 Lee
Looking forward to seeing the meadow in summer!
You and me both!! There’s already wildflowers emerging when I look closely. So exciting!! Happy gardening. 🥷🌿🙌
As always, ***************
Hi Lee, love your videos. Just a quick question, I planted a rhododendron & two camelias in 2020. They still haven't had any blooms. They are planted on East side & west side of garden. The soil has clay but I did mix in compost before putting in plant. I don't know what I'm doing wrong
Hi Bilbinder. Hmm. How strange. They take a few years to establish from juvenile plants. Have you been pruning them when I’m bud? If so you may have pruned off the buds that flower. Try some ericaceous compost as a mulch to help reduce the ph to make the soil more acidic. Happy gardening! Lee 🥷🌿🤘
Hi ya I watched your video on the sedum Green roof you put on the shed . My question is can you use other light weight planting for this kind of roof ? If so what would you recommend? Great videos by the way 👍🏻
Thanks Matt. I’m glad your enjoying my content. Sedum or wildflower turf are usually used. Weight is always the issue with any green roof. There’s nothing really lighter than sedum to be honest. Oh always need to consider the weight when it’s wet too! That’s why reinforced roofs and sheds are essential. Happy gardening. Lee 🥷🌿🙌
Love your garden, and it’s nice to see it evolve over the years. But quick question, it seems like there is not that many spring flowers, any reason for that?
Hi Jerome. So glad you are enjoying my content. Good question. My woodland drive and other borders are packed with bulbs and spring plants. However the exploding atom garden is a much wilder concept. I decided not to include too many bulbs when I designed it. Mainly as they didn’t fit with the prairie and wilderness planting! But rest assured there’s plenty of early pollen for wildlife! 🥷🌿🙌
My Asters have grass growing through them hard to get out what could I use to kill grass not the flowers please
Hi Arlene. The best tool would be a Japanese Hori Hori and manually remove the grass. Weed killers are too indiscriminate and will no doubt drift and damage your asters not to mention wildlife. www.gardenninja.co.uk/hori-hori-japanese-gardening-knife-guide/ Happy gardening! 🥷🌿🙌
Thank you can I put my geraniums outside now ?
Wait until May for pelargoniums! They are not frost hardy. 🥷🌿🙌
Why don't you mulch this newly planted tree ? Bare soil isn't a good idea =(
Hi Nicolas. Thanks for your question. I mulch a lot of things at different times of the year. It’s a great way to improve soil and reduce potential weeds. However one of the biggest reasons to mulch is to help retain moisture. As this tree is at the bottom of a slope near the wettest part of the garden I don’t see a need for mulch. As it’s in the space of a large tree I also want to let the grass grow a bit closer to it. Good question though! 🥷🌿🤘
