Wow, the new window boxes are gorgeous, and your plant selections are just fabulous! No wonderful you are incredibly happy❣️💜🤍💚🤍💜
Thank you so much!
Your resilience in tending to burned hydrangeas, damaged lilies, and creating new windowboxes is truly admirable! You bring such care and creativity to your garden, turning challenges into opportunities for growth and beauty. And I am a floating village life from Vietnam.
Aww, thank you!
The new window boxes are so charming!!! They really add a special touch to the veggie garden!
I agree!
Thanks for sharing the installation and caulking to prevent damage. Those gorgeous hydrangeas in pots. Too beautiful to toss.
Thank you!
You have beautiful Lilies and the window box looks amazing!
Thank you so much!
What beautiful window boxes!!! Thank you for all of your informative postings. Love your place❤
Beautiful gardens and your window boxes and such a excellent touch. Love your garden tours. Thanks for sharing your gardening knowledge. 👍❤️🙂
Thank you so much!
I use a fan in my garden in Maryland. Helps with humidity and bugs.
Exactly!
Wow, your garden is just beautiful and you are so incredibly talented.
The window boxes are amazing…they are the perfect addition.
I’m so tempted to buy them too! Please do an update when everything fills in.
Thank you so much! I love them too, they turned out way better than I thought! Here is the link if you decide to buy 😊 amzn.to/3RYtL57
Mopheads are more resilient than the credit given. More organic matter and watering for a year or so will have them back in prime once again. But I do feel your frustration. This extended drought in the Mid-Atlantic/North east is adversely affecting our plants. Those lilies are spectacular Yulia. I had a brief flush on mines and that was it.
I think I may switch to the newer varieties, these keep freezing off the buds. Not this year, of course. This year ALL of the hydrangeas are amazing
Your garden is always looking beautiful. Love the window boxes - they are like having another raised bed in your veggie garden 😊❤❤
Exactly!
I am sitting here on my back porch, under a fan, and have a sprinkler on my Macrophylla hydrangeas. I almost gave up on these hydrangeas for all of the reasons you mentioned, but this year they were so gorgeous! I guess I'll keep hoping the winter freeze doesn't kill the buds and the summer heat and humidity don't burn the flowers. Sharing your pain with this heat and humidity in zone 7a NJ. Stay cool!
Love the window boxes, these get your favorites, since your husbands favs are in the big one 😉
Your veggie garden is awesome, those tomatoes 🤩 Bummer on the hydrangeas 😒 and yes, this weather has been brutal 🥵🥵🥵
Thanks so much! 😊
Thanks Yulia, now I know what to do about the Lilly beetles. Some of mine were so badly chewed and also got attacked by aphids, the flowers shriveled and bolted.
Girl, yes to humidity. I live in middle GA, zone 8b & you can cut the air with a knife. Having a fan is a good idea!
We’ve had some burning here, too but on limelight hydrangeas that can normally take alot of sun but it was such a hot & dry few weeks (still needing rain) that even the leaves burned. June for us felt more like August.
Love those window boxes!❤
Thank you!
My goodness!!!!!! You are soooooo much more ahead than us with your vegi,s !
Two thumbs up 🎉
I can feel yout disappointment with the hydrangeas, but your joy over the veggies and window boxes comes through loud and clear! I gave 2 hydrangeas an ultimatum this year...bloom or be gone. Guess what...they're stunning this year!
so funny, I had one that always got maybe 1 or 2 blooms, I gave it a talking to this year and it is covered with blooms 😉
Beautiful Yulea!
Maybe if you decide to remove the hydrangeas, you could pass them along to someone who still has shade! Love your new windowboxes. Have you shown the "hellstrip" garden, did I miss that video?
thank you! working on the hells trip now, it's not looking too great 🤪
Those purple Hydrangeas are Gorgeous!💜! Unfortunately, mother nature will do, what shes does. I noticed your tomatoes back there from the start. Wonderful and yes, Nothing like homegrown veggies! 🥰 Certainly not new to you, but girl, you truly have your work cut out for you. 🙌 Wonderful!
I love window boxes too! ❤ Half longer, and resembles my mantle ☺️ Purple, green and white, my all time Fav! Great on fan Idea 🙌. Same weather in Chicago as well 🥵 Thanks, Yuliya! 🌹
Those window boxes are just gorgeous 😍! I am envious about your 🍅 tomatoes. My plants were attacked by slugs....so many this year. It is really a hard year for gardeners. We are soaking in Germany while other parts of the world are drying up.
I think the hydrangea you have (which name you don't know) is an Endless Summer Bloomstar. I have one in a pot for years now that looks similar.😊 Have a wonderful weekend! - Evita
Sorry about the slugs!
Everything is beautiful as always!!! My suggestion for the red lily beetles would be to collect them first from the area you always forget, maybe that will help!!!
Great idea!!
😢 Love the lilies, so sad about the hydrangea!
I think the lilies gain more odor as they age! I bought similar boxes from Gardners supply and online from Costco! Yours look great! I put hosta in them and I am enjoying the hummingbirds coming to their blooms.
I had my first Cherokee purple yesterday and it was SO good.
O yes!
Amazon sells rechargeable neck fans. I have two of them and I absolutely love them. Besides keeping me cool they also keep mosquitoes away from my face.
Good to know!
It is lovely growing your own vegetables and you may find that it becomes easier if you grow flowers such as nasturtium, borage, calendar, cosmos etc, next to them. They distract the insects you were speaking about, they welcome the pollinators and it is very pretty.
Yes! Just started calendula seeds!
I can almost smell the lillies All the way to Tennessee
Leliehaantje. Bacsoda bij water😂❤
I just did the same thing albeit I took out only one... mine never fully forgave me for moving her 2x and the location she was in (afternoon hot sun) was just too much. I can understand your reasons for letting them go. The window boxes look so pretty!
Yes, I feel like the red lily beetle this year is the worst! I have never seen it this bad before.
Southern NJ here, and oh gosh, the humidity is awful! I never thought of a fan. Few weeks ago we had a very large tree removed and I didn’t realize how much shade it was providing to certain areas. I have some hostas that have burned towards the front of a bed, but I know they will improve each year as they acclimate. I’ve had others that were in a lot more sun and did better after the first year. I just keep up on watering them. I also have a purple big leaf hydrangea like yours that was affected as well. It hasn’t burned, but the flowers are fading a bit quicker. It will be fine but we’ll see how it goes next year.
The humidity has been rough!
Been following you, and Laura Bee Gardening. You have similar color pallet. Beautiful!
Love how the boxes look! I don’t see a fill hole for water, how does the self watering work? my Bobo has burnt leaves and wondering if it’s getting too much sun. I thought it could take more, even here in GA. Maybe just an off year with the drought.
Oh, your poor hydrangeas are looking so sad. 😥 Years ago I had several macrophyllas and they looked so lush and beautiful each spring, but when summer hit they were nothing but a blight on my landscape. Everyone thinks of my home town, Seattle, as a very wet and rainy place - and it is, during three seasons of the year. But our natural weather pattern is to have drought in summer. We typically go four months or longer with zero rain. And it’s just impossible to keep hydrangeas hydrated through all that time. They go downhill fast. After years of struggling with them, the watering became burdensome and my enjoyment in the garden waned. I finally did what you’re contemplating; I ripped them out. I did that when they were all wilted and bedraggled, so it was a great relief to have them gone. I really learned my lesson with those hydrangeas. Now I choose plants that are more suited to the climate here. Our nurseries specialize in drought tolerant species so it’s easy to find things that do well in our parched summers. Now our hot months are easy and breezy for me, and I’m thrilled with my beautiful garden that can take care of itself with only minimal help from me. Not only did I regain precious time that I previously spent on garden chores, but I saved a ton of money on my water bills, too. So I say get out your shovel and go for it! You’ll be glad to have something more suitable in that spot. Can’t wait to see what that’s going to be!
Currently coming up with some ideas 😁
Could you grow the hydrangeas in large pots in the shade?
Probably not, they freeze in the winter and growing them in pots will make it worse. Of course I can store them in the garage, but that's way too much work 😂
👍👍👍👍👍
Can you put up a shade sail ?
Love your garden and videos; where did you source your raised beds in the kitchen garden?
Thank you! Here amzn.to/3VVBoKF I've had them for many years now, and they held up so well.
That evil red bug ruined almost all my lilies last year and it’s after the few I have left! I just keep spraying the Neem oil. I don’t know what else to do?
Same 😭
Can you please share the name/source of the netting you showed protecting your zucchini? Thanks! I feel your pain with the big leaf hydrangeas. I tried the endless summer hydrangeas for years and finally gave up and gifted them to a friend who lives 45 minutes south of me and they are thriving and blooming their heads off in her yard!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I caught a bunch of asparagus beetles by coating green garden stakes with tanglefoot. Do you think something like that might work for the lily beetles too?
O wow, that's interesting. I think it may work
@@greatgardensforall worth a shot! It was no work at all.
Squash bugs don’t burrow into stems of zucchini. Squash vine borers do. Totally different pests.
Haha, That’s what I meant squash vine borer. My brain is fried from the heat and humidity 🫠
@@greatgardensforall😂
Do you get red lily beetle every year? I was infested once. I couldn’t kill them off and so I just trashed the plants. I don’t want to support the population. I’m trying again this year and so far so good. Just the 🐰 causing damage.
So many red lily beetles 😭
Windo bac hydrocultuur.😅
Arm& hammer pure baking soda.??? Paar 2 lepels gieter op lossen.😂❤
How big of a problem are deer for you
Big in the front yard. They just destroyed all of my phlox 😭 the backyard is fenced
