    Where did you buy your Rodger's Peacock Flower? I want one ❤ You act like me walking in my garden. "Oh look!" 😊 I love your gardens. TON of work, but rewarding!

    What a wonderful shade garden! Your artful combinations of plant textures and leaf colors illustrate how to make a spring garden beautiful even before the plants start blooming. I have several hosta varieties, but your collection makes me drool. Thanks for sharing!

    Beautiful. Your gardens remind me of home on Long Island. I can't grow a Hosta here in Florida. I always enjoy your video's cant wait for the perennial one. Thank you and your husband for sharing.

    Oh my gosh, this video totally made my day! Of course, I say that after watching any video you post because your gardens are all amazing. The hostas are absolutely gorgeous. I will rewatch this video because you have so many different varieties, and I love seeing them all. Truly, you are a gifted gardener…my favorite of all time. If you ever stop posting videos, I will go into withdrawal. And speaking of videos, your husband does an outstanding job with all of them. I feel bad because I’m always raving about your gardens, and he’s the one who makes the fabulous videos so we can enjoy them. Please pass along my thanks to him as well.

    Your yard is lovely! I also love Hostas. I have fourteen varieties, but they suffer in July and August. I lost to Poplar trees and now my yard has more sun. Can anyone name a few perennials that tolerate sun better than Hostas? I had tulips and daffodils in early Spring and now I have some lilies and roses blooming. There is no plant I like as much as Hostas.

    Every garden spot that you and your husband have on your property are absolutely beautiful and very well put together. But I have to admit, your shade garden is one my favorite gardens. I'm a big fan of hosta, Japanese grasses and rocks, and placed in the right spots (and yours certainly are), they are low maintenance, elegant and beautiful to look at. Great video! And thank so you for sharing!

    Omg I'm running outside right now to fix my Sweet Tea Heuchera!!! That's exactly what mine are doing, they pushed themselves up! Didn't know that was a thing or that I can reset them back into the ground. Hopefully now they will leaf out more. It has such a pretty leaf and don't want to lose it.

    Good job! Can’t wait until the plants mature and spread out to cover that mulch and shade out the weeds. Less maintenance, all fun. I have Eastern bluebirds in my Nestbox! Hummingbirds are enjoying my feeders until blooms come. I invested in a fence to protect my hosta investment. My newest is Curly Fries 🍟 and I use beer to trap the slugs. Happy spring!

    Hey Guiding Green thumbs! You have to admit...you did looked a little ‘Sus’ when your hubs came up on ya in the beginning of the video..😂 Quick question-I have several Hostas that outline my entire pool and they look beautiful in the spring/early summer but then they take a turn by the time Fourth of July comes around and they look Brown and Burnt..I water them like crazy but it always happens to them... I have at least 80 Hostas in my yard in every shape,color&style I love them but I’m debating on removing the ones around the pool?? Any suggestions....

    Such an amazing shade garden, you've inspired me with all those hosta. I have a limed up blue spruce, and a mimosa tree next to the pond, I've often thought about planting a shade garden there, thinking now it's about time to do so. Sorry your dog was hurt, looks like a panic happened as well, glad she's healing nicely. Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead.
