I love to watch your videos! Came for the plants and stayed for the plants and your wonderful personality! 💚
One of the REALIST gardeners on UA-cam! John I admire that you aren't afraid to get in there and actually do the work! Thanks alot for that and sharing your wisdom bro! AJ
That was like the War of the Rose 🌹 😳.
What a fantastic video, John! Watching you axing out the rose is more entertaining than watching the World Cup finals! You give me great courage to go out and deal with my ‘difficult’ garden. I am learning from you not to be afraid of making mistakes, trying out, and simply trying out again. It’s a joy to watch you work because you love what you are doing. Thank you!
I fully agree Anna he really inspires me with my garden - and makes it enjoyable and fun - often think about him when pottering in the garden - always brings a smile to my face- great man.
So funny to hear the videographer chuckling under his breath. These guys have too much fun!
I could watch you just dig a hole for 30 minutes. No matter what job you’re doing in the garden John, please take the camera along even if you think it doesn’t merit it, guaranteed we’ll all watch very happily!
For sure!! He's a natural entertainer. And a fountain of knowledge regarding plants.
Reality gardening! 😊
God love you... that roses wasn’t having it. All us gardeners felt your pain! I was routing for ya👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love your videos, John!! Keep the longer ones coming, please!
John, you are such a delight!👍👍💖💖💖💖💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I was really contemplating of transferring a rose bush to a new spot. Her old spot gets too dry for her and quite dangerous as there was a newly built basketball court near it. But I had a hard time transferring her to a new spot and thought of giving up. Then this video popped up 😆 I guess God gave me a sign.
Once you chop - you just can’t stop! Cheers john 👍
John has been the main reason I got into roses. Because he has shown me that they can be kicked/plucked up outta the ground/cut back and tossed about and they still bloom better than ever for him. Buy a rose you won't regret it!
That rose. What a beast to dig out. But you didnt let it get the better of you. New space will look great when you finished.
🙋hi from Scotland ,hi John thanks for sharing this amazing vidio you really are funny I thought you were going to pass out after getting that rose 🌹 out well done ,I need to get myself a pick I hope you show us the new border when you finish it take care and thank you lovely camera 📷 man I don't know how you don't burst out laughing when filming John lol !! Anne Scott from Scotland
Wish I lived in Ireland as your neighbor.
Dont forget to stop and smell the roses. Haha
Man John you had me breathing just as hard as you with that Rose bush, once you got it out I couldn’t stop laughing, YOU THE MAN!!!
Hi Ho Timber ha ha ha you make me laugh well done.
Well done John!
There's a horrible gravel on hard core corner just like that in my garden; you've made my day John.
You are so funny. I can’t believe the way you handle your plants. I always worry that I am so rough with mine. Now I don’t feel so bad.
Greetings from sunny FL. Love your garden tours! ⛏
Just discovered your fabulously entertaining videos and have been binge watching all day! Thanks for sharing your knowledge & stories in your own quirky enthusiastic way! Beats watching Olympic curling by a long shot! Wonderful
'Zéphirine Drouhin' is my personal favourite, classic 19th century rose, and thornless.
Great video and very entertaining. I’d hate to see the state of your hands after wrestling with that rose bare handed! I have some roses getting eaten by possums so need to move them. I have more confidence now after watching this video. 😅
Loving the longer spring videos! It really gets me going to do stuff in my own garden :)
Oh to garden without deer. A dream.
Hi John 👋 another good 👍 video stay well
I need that saw!!😄
Good job done... Lovely to see you again... Stay safe...
So much energy! Wonderful!
I need that toy trimmer. Does it come with a John Lord? Maybe you could selling ones that has your voice and sayings when we pull a string.
Wounder how I can get one now !!😆
Well done getting the rose out, can't wait to see how the plants do, roll on summer 🌞🌞
love you John.
Rose to the occasion lol!! that was one tough rose for sure!! That area is going to look great! Can't wait to see more! Cheers!
Looks like a new camera? Looks different in a nice way. As always - I enjoy you, your garden and videos :)
Appreciate your videos..blessings
Love the videos, thanks John.
Rose to the occasion 🤣
"Every Rose has a thorn" lol
That Rose was not wanting to move! Poor guy
John takes no prisoners.
Had a similar experience with Cornelia's cousin Buff Beauty and finally decided to leave her where she was in dense shade under a Korean fir, rather than continue the battle any longer. A broken garden fork may have been involved in the decision. She isn't quite as happy as she was when she was waving from the top of it thirty feet up but the fir is much happier with her back on the ground and she's still lovely at ground level. We may eventually get all the dead rose branches out of the tree. Do you have Leonard Messel for sale? As always astonished by your energy as I am every time i see you working in the nursery. Inspirational. By the way, I'm sure you know already but Beth Chatto's dry garden looked exactly like that area when it was a car park.
Well done John that rose was tough another enjoy watch Sheila U.K.
Looking forward to see the plants in their new home.
Great video I really thought that rose was going to win lol good job you got her
Brilliant, thanks. I would like to see that poor rose in a few months time.
It’s been replanted already and looks a bit sad but it will bounce back (I hope).
Hello John 😊😊😊🌹
Great video John! That rose never stood a chance even though it went the 12 rounds!!😂 If it was my garden l'd have left that little nook. Then again it's not my garden! Perhaps with covid you don't want putting a bench back in it?
You need both Root Slayer Nomad and Root Slayer XL shovel. These changed my gardening life! Amazing for getting up shrubs, small trees, Root pruning et al.
One other amazing tool took my weeding down from 8 hours a weekend to less than 2 - D hoe (aka stirrup hoe). I use all 3 of these tools on an almost daily basis. Rarely use a standard pointed shovel any longer.
What tool do you use to edge beds?
@@_wormlet I use the Root Slayer edger. Not a sponsored post, I promise. I just love those tools.
Must admit that I do use a regular spade shovel if I'm shoveling dirt or compost into or out of a pile.
The frenetic gardener! A great balance to Monty Don's careful and measured techniques! However John should never be allowed to run a chain saw. Just plain scary!
Master class in pruning and digging up roses would have been even better title :-)
I have two roses to put in. They are bushes I want at either end of my tiny garden but, one of them has died, so I'm putting some lavender in, for now.
Hi John always enjoy the videos what make his your pole saw and how much was it cheers nick
John Lord YAAAAY!
Just wondering if you would normally water the rose first before digging it up? Only curious
Can you tell us the brand and model of the battery powered chain saw? The video is a bit fuzzy, I can figure out. Many thanks!
If no hard core under gravel I find I loose it fast into soil
Warning: When visiting John Lord's secret garden, keep your arms by your sides at all times.
How is the alpine bed looking?
What is the fabulous machinery you are using ?
Can I buy form B & Q ?
It’s a Husqvarna 530iP4 battery pole saw and not cheap but worth every penny.
Do your roses not suffer from black spot or mildew in your area?
Can you please please let me know the name of the tree is in front of the laurel hedge. The one near the rose the rose?
I thought I had a big shovel, I was wrong
Where are your safety glasses?
Hi John have a hundred gladioli to plant - any tips on making it more interesting.
Use a bulb planter, the long ones, make the hundred holes, put in the bulbs and then go round and put the plugs of soil back in. Then have a glass of wine and wait for the pubs to open. ;).
@@mollie3244 Hi Molly
Wait for it - never thought of that - but great - haven't got one - but brains already in gear - have old broom handle in garage - and you know something - I'm going to make it extra long - so I don't have to bend much - can't wait to get whittling bottom of broom handle - you have inspired - will be out in garden rain, hail or sun - thanks and you have a great day.
@@joyceaitchison5900 I have one I bought cheap years ago and I always pushed it in, planted the bulb and then spend ages trying to get the sod out to put back in the ground. Then I saw this guy on ytube planting hundreds of crocus just going about making holes and the planter pushed the sod out when it filled up. I felt like, I don't go to all this trouble being blonde for nothing. :)
@@mollie3244 ha ha ha ha made my day
For a gardener they way he butchered that old Heritage rose was criminal
Funny how your comment section is dominated by members of the female persuasion. That may be true of gardening in general, because the focus is aesthetics.
Colour blind people would say different about the red handled items amongst all the greenery 🤣
some how a chainsaw on a stick has been the safest tool for the lord. jah!
Just use the chain saw on the rose. Stop with the pick axe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SHEEEE
