I think this is one of the best videos I’ve seen showcasing garden flowers. I love that you show the seed packet and then the mature plant. I’ve ruled in planting some and ruled out others that would have been a mistake in my garden based on your video. I’d say your challenge to yourself, growing your garden all from seeds you started, was successful! Good job.
Wow, thank you! I thought so too. It was the greatest gardening accomplishment I’ve ever had. Not only was it beautiful it saved me so much money. I couldn’t have had the same amount of flowers, herbs or even veggies if I didn’t start it that way.
Love zinnias! I hope to become a master gardener like you! I feel like somewhat of a beginner but I remember my first zinnia planting. I was amazed- so easy and beautiful!
If you grow tomatoes, put some Marigolds and Basil at the base of them. Where I did that last year, I didn’t have tomato hornworms! I hate those nasty things! I recommend checking to see which plants/flowers and trees may be invasive before planting. New gardeners may not be aware and what a nightmare they can cause sometimes. Your flowers are pretty!
I do my best to always share if things are invasive or spread and try my best to give those recommendations, but say that, and as with any of the videos I post, always do your research. I’m certainly not responsible for everybody else’s garden, I can’t even halfway keep up with mine. I appreciate your tips and for you watching. Thank you so so much.
I never comment stuff like this but just wanted to say that your personality is absolutely joyful and amazing. I could watch you teach me about anything for hours 😂
The repeating theme in this video is "These grow to 1-2 feet, but these here are 3-4 feet" The takeaway is this gal has magic soil and a magic touch! 😜 I'm subscribing now and hope some of the magic rubs off on me. Fabulous garden!!
I pinch off the coleus flowers and keep them in a paper bag separated out by color. I received seeds at my Dr. office believe it or not! And ever since, I have a new found passion in life! I absolutely fell in love with growing coleus and propagating them, it is so so fun to make beautiful things grow and multiply!!
What a beautiful, easy to grow, plant. Lots of bees and butterflies, great color and can get 8' tall and 6' wide in the right location. Next year plant more than one. Another favorite plant: Pineapple Sage. Wait till end of summer and early fall with beautiful red flowers and hummingbirds. I plant mine in a small concrete planter and cheat by getting the small plant at the garden center. This year mine is coming back and it gets huge.
They are also a fantastic fertilizer when added to the compost. I’ve heard of some gardeners who grow veggie/fruit gardens almost exclusively and then grow the Mexican sunflowers specifically to put into their compost for nitrogen and phosphorus. They add more to the garden than they take away. Plus as an added bonus they attract pollinators into gardens that otherwise wouldn’t have that much in it to attract them. I put them near my cucumbers and other plants that need to be pollinated. Works every time with amazing results.
I too love this video! Not only did you show how you started your seeds, but what the final plant looks like. And not just the flower, but the whole plant. It drives me crazy when I can only see the bloom but don't see the 4ft plant that would be completely inappropriate in a certain space. Thanks sooo much!
So nice of you. I actually am working on a part two to this. I found more flowers that I didn't show so I thought everyone loves this one as much as I do so I am going to add on to it. Thanks for the encouragement too. That helps tremendously knowing what's helpful and what isn't.
I have watched this video 20 times and will probably watch it again and again. Love seeing all the flowers, it just calms me. Gets me excited for the flowers I also want to grow. Thank You please make more videos love them all 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Thank you so much. I did plant them too close together and ended up having a powdery mildew disaster so this year I’m gonna have to do a better job of spacing them out.
I am doing this for the first time this year. I think I'm going to save thousands of dollars by looking at the germination rate of all the perennials and Annuals I started from seeds. I'm excited to see my beds full of flowers.
I love this video! Seeing the results including the ENTIRE plant is so helpful. Most videos just show the pretty bloom and ignore the rest. I’ve watched this video at least five times. Great content!
AH!!!!!! I LOVE THIS! I am so happy that it was helpful and even more that it was worth another watch and even five. You made my day! Thank you so much.
Coleus root super easy in water. If you got one you love specifically just break off a 4-5 inch stem remove bottom leaves and any flowers and plop into a glass/vase with water. I keep mine on the kitchen sink window sill and in about a week you got roots. I then pot it up for overwintering or plant out in warm weather. I even kept one all winter long in water with changing the water out frequently and by spring it had a huge root ball. LOL
Love this video. I agree completely. Starting the flowers from seed is so satisfying and a ton cheaper. Most are so vigorous you can have a full garden the very first year. I start everything from seed including my veggies. With todays led grow lights it costs next to nothing to run. I end up filling my livingroom with seedlings but im preparing this year to winter sow for next year. That will save a a ton of space. I did dalias last year for the first time and i wished i paid more attention cause i only ended up with a few plants and they were gorgeous. So this year i have a bunch of seedlings. I dont have to plant some stuff cause it self sows like marigolds. I just dig up and move them if i want. I collect hollyhock seeds but this year (still very early for me) i have quite a few starting to come up. Thank you for sharing your garden its just beautiful and definitely has a cottage vibe.
What a gorgeous garden! You have now inspired me to go back by my shed and plant some seeds today. We are expecting rain tomorrow, so this is a perfect opportunity!
Oh my gosh, I absolutely love your flower garden! This is exactly what I am trying to do with a neglected area at the assisted living where my Mom lives! I have already started winter sowing some black eyed susans, yarrow, and daisies. So thanks SO much for the inspiration for other seeds to winter sow! I'm so excited and hope I can come up with something even half as beautiful as what you have done! And last year was my first year growing coleus and what a nice surprise it turned out to be for me as well! I cut the tops off of them before the frost, rooted them in water and then planted them in pots where they are waiting in my garage for spring! :)
Oh this makes my heart so happy. Your mom and all the residents at the assisted-living facility are going to love anything that you do. My mom is 86 years old and is the reason I fell in love with gardening at four years old. Now it will forever live in me. I love love love that you are doing this, please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with this.
1st time viewer of your channel and this was a great idea to show the seed packets and results! Going to subscribe. I plant a lot of Tithonus seeds as the butterflies love it here in 6a northwest Ohio. A tip for anyone new with this plant is that I try to plant them near a natural stake to tie them to as we usually have a couple extremely windy days in late summer that will take them over….and they continue to grow even if tipped over! The squirrels sometimes enjoy a few leaves, but they grow so big, that’s ok. Saving the seeds is easy, too.😊. Beautiful gardens you have!
So pretty! You can't beat zinnias for summer color! I have one more batch to sow, Aztec and Persian Carpet zinnias and Rubenza cosmos for fall color. The bees love the coleus blooms, but I keep the blooms cut off until September. They will drop seed and you may get some volunteers next spring. I rely on several varieties of coleus for fall color: Inferno, Rustic Orange, Redhead and Henna. I do not try to overwinter the parent plant. I root smaller branches in water and/or dirt later in August or September so I don't have to keep such large plants. I keep them in my garage where the temps have sometimes dipped to 39 (but not often) and they are very happy. Stock does not like hot weather so the way yours looks is typical. I am not pulling my plants out but waiting to see if they will revive in the fall since this is my first time planting. I started snapdragons last fall and they are still going strong. I kept them in pots outside all winter except for the nights when it was single digits, and then I pulled them into my garage. I have been cutting off the seed heads and fertilizing, and am hoping they will last until this fall since I couldn't find any in the garden centers last fall. You need to try the Audray series of gomphrena for much larger flower heads and more branching. Another plant that I wintersowed that is still blooming is scabiosa. The bees love it! I had one Dara plant that overwintered and finally died when it got really hot. I winter sowed some so I would have them for the swallowtail caterpillars: it was their favorite last year, along with dill and parsley. You will not need to reseed the Asian Garden celosia. I had one plant four years ago and still have seedlings every single year. I have Sunday Gold and Celway Terra Cotta celosia which I started from seed last year but they volunterred this year. I absolutely love them!
What a great message. You are so full of knowledge. I had no reseeding of the coleus so I planted lots of seeds. The variety you recommended sounds amazing and you can’t beat zinnias. You’re right
You are awesome. Thank you so much that is awesome and by the way, I’m making another video just like it with the seeds and plants that I realized I didn’t feature.
Aren’t they gorgeous? It makes everything in the world that feels hard or sad or disappointing to melt away even for a few moments. I get lost in watching them go from flower to flower ❤️
What a well done video! I’ve watched what feels like 50 different gardens videos in preparation for a new garden I’m growing and this was hands down the best one! Clear, perfect description, great camera work and I love every one of the flowers you have chosen. I wish I had found this video first and I wouldn’t have had to watch the others 😂
This comment right here is so special to me. Wow! I am almost speechless. That is such an honor for you to say I really really appreciate it and will do many more like that. As a matter fact I’m working on one right now I realize there were so many Seeds that I didn’t even feature that I actually have videos of
@@thesoutherndaisyllc just found u Salute' Question Do u save seeds Cut them label and sow year after year. Or chop & drop let them multiply on their own
Thank you so much. I am actually working on another one of the plants flowers that I realized I didn’t feature, so be on the lookout and will absolutely do more this summer. I can’t explain to you what an overwhelming response I have gotten from people saying the same thing. I thought about it when I decided to make it and thought I always wondered what this plant would look like so decided decided I would do it for myself, and for other people who may feel the same and it seems like there’s a lot of people that felt the same lol.
Fantastic garden. Incredible that it was all from seed. Good for you! It shows that you don't have to spend a fortune to have a great garden if you grow from seeds. Thank you
Yes, thank you. I am so happy to have discovered a way to have my cake and to eat it too. It makes my whole heart happy and I know that it will yours also!
Loved the tour of your garden. I did a small pollinator garden from seeds I started last year. I had bee balm, scarlet sage, anise hyssop, coreopsis, black eyed Susan’s, blue sage, lambs ear and butterfly weed all started from seeds. I added lantana and a butterfly bush that I purchased. It was in bloom all summer long and filled with hummingbirds, butterflies and bees. They also visited my vegetable garden where I had planted a row of marigolds and another of zinnias. I enjoyed watching all the visitors on the flowers while working in the garden. I will be starting more seeds from some of the ones you showed to add to my pollinator garden this year.
Your garden is beautiful, thank you for sharing. I am going to start next year with seeds. It is very expensive to buy seasonal flowers. Thank you for the video and your time.
I'm so glad you are going to give it a try! It is definitely more economical and you get to see the whole life cycle of the flower. So rewarding. Please let me know if if there’s anything I can do to help you on this journey.
I just discovered your wonderful channel. I to have Daisy in my name, but somehow I can't grow Daisies either. I love that you used seeds from Dollar Tree store. I bought seeds last year from on line more expensive shops and the seeds I bought from Dollar Tree and Walmart actually worked the best for me in my Zone 6a Massachusetts garden. I guess more expensive isn't always better. I hope you have a lovely day. Happy Planting 😊 🏵🪷🪻🌷🌼🌻
This year I planted lots of my flowers from seed. I’ve planted zinnias,Large marigolds,cleome, cosmos and wildflower mix. They are all small just coming up but a good stand. I get great satisfaction from sowing seed in the ground Going to try the ones you have shown in your inspiring video!Fun to watch Thank You 😀
I love the tour with the seed packets! You don't have to worry about ever planting the dill, feverfew, calendula, and forget me not again! I absolutely love the coleus. My dill does last well in a vase so maybe give it another try. I've never seen that particular celosia before but it's beautiful Glad I stumbled onto your UA-cam
That Asian garden is our princess feathers…the pink flowers are FULL of little black seeds…cut them off and put into a paper sack…you will have a million seeds
Our FOUR OCLOCKS are more like six thirty….they also are full of black seeds after the flower blooms…you will have millions of seeds to share…put into a paper sack and let them dry out
I am working on a part two right now. I figured that would be helpful for me so I wanted to share that with you guys and sounds like it’s also helped others. What is your favorite that you saw?
Stocks like cooler weather, mine grew like crazy but would not bloom. Then come fall the ones that survived summer bloomed and were beautiful. After research I learned they are a cool season flower and I had planted at wrong time.
I am in NC in what is now 8b...New Bern....I guess we are relatively close...I'm glad I found you! Thanks for your video This is the first year I've grown anything from seed. I've had pretty good success. I will try more next year thanks to your encouragement! 🌞
This is legit the best video I have ever seen to help plant my flower garden. Thank you for the guidance! And thank you for showing me dollar store seeds are legitimate 🎉
I love your message. How incredibly kind of you to say. It’s so exciting to know that you are going to give dollar tree seeds a shot. You’re gonna be so happy you did! Thank you again!
@@thesoutherndaisyllcbasically exactly what another commenter said named Marcia, the fact that you show the packet and then the real plant and explain how you sowed it and the likes and dislikes. It’s fabulous! Very personable and honest. I’m a visual learner so having you show the packet and explain stuff while filming the plant itself makes it easy to understand and help visualize what it might look like in my yard! Sometimes just reading that something gets a certain size doesn’t really resonate with me lol but seeing it is like, oh!!! That’s what it looks like! lol Hope all that makes sense.
Great video! I watched it twice! I grew the same Stalk flower in fall and it bloomed in late winter/early Spring. They were beautiful and smell really good. You should try again as a cool season flower. I also grew the green mist and am not a fan as a cut flower. The flower sheds everywhere and flowers attracts flies.
This video taught me so much. For the first time ever, I’ve purchased seeds to sow indoors as we head into spring here in the Southern Hemisphere. I’m now able to see from your video how to create a balanced look with proportional height ‘tiers’, plus make a mental note to self about staking! Thank you so much! I really enjoyed your tour. 🙏🌷
Anise hyssop was my #1 surprise flower last year. Bought two pots at a nursery. Grew to 4 feet, bloomed until fall and bees were on it all day, every day. Your video gets me excited for spring planting here in the midwest!
I am in zone 7b, too! Glad I found you. I have been wondering about doing a direct sow of seeds that I 'meant' to plant earlier. I am going for it-even though this is pretty late. We'll see what happens in spring!
Wow beautiful garden! I absolutely solute you for what you’ve grown. Flowers makes me so happy when they bloom. This year I grown zinnias, cosmo, nasturtiums, morning glory, for the first time from direct sow and they are absolutely beautiful. I love all the ones you planted that you gave 2 thumbs up so will have to try to grow some of them next yr. Thanks for your tips!
Wow, your garden is indeed a paradise for the pollinators! It's my dream garden which looks like a meadow and a prairie, naturally awesome and beautiful! I love butterflies, too, so I always include monarda, asclepias, zinia, cynoglossum, four o' clock, hollyhock, calendula, nasturtium, alyssum, etc in my garden.
Thank you so much for coming on my walk with me. Yours sounds magical with all the most beautiful flowers. Ok so what is the trick with four o'clocks? I can't figure them out. They are gorgeous but leggy. I want to get it right this go round!
Great turnout! Wish we could have chatted directly as I have many of the same flowers. We have extreme drought in WI this year. We had crazy Rain in January and it was soooo warm, then we had March weather in April and our last rain up till las Monday was in May. All I have been doing is watering until we finished one garden with irrigation on the 11th last week and it poured on the 12th! Go figure🙄. Should’ve done it sooner, but just found the local parts and I wanted to see it so I could understand what I needed. So, I was observing different growth patterns and zinnias are one that can vary depending on how it’s planted. I have the old fashion mix I save seed from and it is a mix of singles, doubles and the crazy big crowned ones. Last year I planted some by themselves and they got Huge! I found if they are crowded they don’t branch out with thick stems. They don’t do well in sandy soil in direct heat without amending soil and regular water. I was in a hurry this year and just felt in a race to get my flowers planted. I had many new seed and thought I’ll just plant in clumps and divide later. Well, the zinnias look like a chia pet lawn😂😂. I have tons of seed and got a bit crazy. The soil was freshly amended and they look great so far, but afraid they may not be at their best at maturity. They can mildew also. Last year the double pink by itself looked like roses-just wonderful! I’ve had difficulty with cosmos before and they didn’t do well out by yard light and wonder if light all night long messed them up. Yet I threw them in a dirt patch with sunflowers and coreopsis and it was a show indeed. Four o clocks are very nice, but the Japanese Beetles love them like roses. Brown Eyed Susan’s are a bright spot and they show up along with the blanket flower that reseed every year. Thing I don’t like about BESs is they can dry up and mildew and need to pull and they can flop. Many flowers tend to be weak and flop if given abundance of water and crowded. A fine line to make them all happy. The sun and slightly drying out before watering can toughen the stems up. It is very difficult here this year as Everything is heat stressing and impossible to let them go without water as they would fry. I also got dollar store coleus and first time and they are such a Rich color-delighted. New is dahlia from seed and they don’t like the straight sun here and need a lot of water. Calendula is new and love them and they don’t handle heat well. Oh, heck! The whole bunch of native plants and weeds can’t handle it and fried! Why would I expect anything more from new plants 🤪. The lavender is handling it well with a bit of water. Even the Yuccas are dried up and that’s saying something! There were a lot of flops with winter sowing this year. It was just too warm. I’ve decided it doesn’t matter when I start them and later would probably be better because I think some may have germinated too soon and froze or they rotted. Will definitely not use bag method again. I’m starting most garden seeds Much later next year and maybe it would be warm enough I can do it all in the greenhouse and heat a few hours at night. Wayyyy too many problems indoors this year that I’ve never had-gnats and aphids-it was awful. And the drought just was the icing on top because the wildlife is attacking EVERYTHING including hostas they ate to the ground and never Ever touched before.😮. I have to barricade EVERYTHING to the point I can’t hardly enjoy the flowers. They eat day lillies like bon bons and bird netting has to be secure way above or they will knock all the buds off. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg as we have had multiple problems and VOLES I never seen in my life-crimmeny crickets! They ate a bunch of spring bulbs and now trying to figure out if it’s them still rutting things up and eating lettuce or if we still have a coon issue. 😂😂then there is the insects😂😂😂 I almost threw in the towel when we had a freak frost just before Memorial Day and now weather warning-I was devastated!! I had to replant many and luckily it didn’t hit the flats. I gave up writing everything down as I have many new varieties this year. It’s a mess. It was so warm this spring who would have thought about frost when we were in the 90s?! So hence the reason I have swathes of crowded flowers waiting to be separated as I’ve been fighting a war with hose in hand. And let’s not forget to add the days we were stuck inside because of smoke from fires and now CA is smoking.🙄🤯 A couple flowers that are cottage style are tall Phlox and Sweet Williams. I have Tithonia because you said you loved them and now I don’t know if I planted them direct, WS’d or maybe not at all. I haven’t had much time trying to keep the plants watered sometimes twice a day. I always felt like I was forgetting something. So I rely on people like you with great videos so I can try and recognize the leaves in hope to figure this mess out before it gets close to freezing again. We only have approximately 130 days. I seriously have to come up with a system so I can just pull shade fabric in place. I have an idea. Wish I was one to video tape some of my garden dilemmas and so that others may benefit. I just don’t have the time. Thx 4 the tour!
I had a chance to use winter sowing once, and it yielded very good results. I lost two summers after that because we moved overseas for a year, but going to start lots of seeds this year. That was my first experience with seeds, I used to be intimidated by them. Highly recommend for those who didn't use it yet to study this method and try it. We live in high altitude 8700, and it worked great! In our case, for heat loving plants like tomatoes and peppers I would try to add aditional protection, when it gets warm setting a jug in a cold frame or greenhouse which I will have this year so they would germinate and grow in timely manner. Our last frost date is in mid June and nights stay very cold until then and just cold after. They did germinate, but it was too late to put them in the ground. For this year I also got lots of flower seeds. Watching your video I'm getting even more excited for the summer!
I live the original bananna creme daisy its so lovely, I tried my hand at the white daisy but it was not happy. The bananna creme sermed to just bloom all last year, never missed a beat. Thank you for showing us the good, bad and the ugly of what you grew this year. Im trying zinnias for the first time this year in a few different places.
Beautiful! I'm from England and always remember the English gardens being this sort of more wild looking and lovely. I'm not a fan of boring rows of one flower type and monocolor that I see here in the US a lot.
This is everything to me. The fact that you are actually among the English gardens and that you find that my garden is beautiful maybe the highlight of my entire year. I cannot express the smile how big it is on my face. I want to thank you so so much. This is everything.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Las rosas son una de las cosas que más hacen sonreír, y aportan consuelo y optimismo con sus colores brillantes y su agradable aroma. Cuando regalamos rosas a alguien, esto indica el lugar que ocupa en nuestro corazón y el alcance de su importancia. Las rosas siempre indican el bien. gusto a la hora de elegirlos como regalo para aquellos a quienes queremos.
Absolutely stunning! I’m in Va and it’s crunch time for me now planting everyday! You inspired me to buy some more packs of seeds to start. I want my yard to look just like this along my fence area and my house. I know I don’t have the money to do it buying plants. Thanks for showing me I can have this with starting my own by seed. Thanks for sharing. Oh and I just discovered the Mexican Sunflower last year. I definitely want to get some growing! Moonflower is one of my favorite. I grew it every year for years! I would mix it and a morning glory plant together to get blooms morning and night. I grew hyacinth bean vine one year and had great success. Took all summer before I got flowers though.
This is fantastic. You just helped me so much. I wanted to grow my morning glory and also my moonflower but only have one panel so I was stumped! I’m going to do what you did and mix them. That’s such a great idea. By the way, you will be getting a shout out! :-) You sound like you are well on your way to having a gorgeous summer full of blooms!
I'm so happy! Thank you for letting me know it was worthwhile. I get ideas that I think would help me and sometimes they aren't super interesting to others so it's always great to know. Thank you for watching and for taking time to comment.
Your garden is amazing! I'mm in Florida and it is HOT! I don't have a lot of free time but gardening really makes me happy. I am always looking for plants that are easy to grow and bring me joy with little work. Thank you so much for the videos and inspiration!
Hi from the UK, I grew crazy daisy for the first time this year and they are truly crazy and fluffy daisies. You’ll love them when they get going trust me. Deb x
The only flowers I tend to grow from seed are marigolds and nasturtums. I save seeds from other flowers I buy. This year I plan on growing more flowers from seed. Your video is inspiring. Thank you for showing the seed packet first.
Wonderfully, the Coleus will also root in a glass of water...often in less than a week. So, you can grow many of them on your window sills, if short on space. ❤😊 Tip cuttings with most leaves stripped are very easy.
@@thesoutherndaisyllc Sure! Thx!.Scotty on Maui. No gardening videos on my personal channel, though.. I have some growing in my window right now. 🌺🌴 Sometimes, I also remove the tip as well, so it doesn't flop. Edit. Bummer. Got the notification two months later. Lol.
I think you achieved the cottage garden vibe you were going for. Such vibrant pretty color! In your backyard area do you have things planted inside a fence?
Hi Robbie, I bought a raised bed so this year I plan to plant some tomatoes, Radishes, and some herbs in it. I also just brought a cheap seed starting kit. I have cosmos,Zinnias both in warm and cool tones. I also have sunflowers in some beautiful colors. I also got English Daisy, painted daisy, purple coneflower, columbine, Canterbury bells, foxgloves,and hollyhocks. 😂 the cheap started kit only has 36 starting cells. I have a feeling I’m going to have to find anything that I can convert into a container for starting all these seeds. I plan on sharing my seeds with my 86 year old Auntie.🌼🌺🌸🦋🐝
@@thesoutherndaisyllc Thank you. 😊 Hey Kim I just checked out your channel and I already was following you. I’ve noticed that you have a new video out on seeds will be watching 🥰
I think this is one of the best videos I’ve seen showcasing garden flowers. I love that you show the seed packet and then the mature plant. I’ve ruled in planting some and ruled out others that would have been a mistake in my garden based on your video. I’d say your challenge to yourself, growing your garden all from seeds you started, was successful! Good job.
Wow, thank you! I thought so too. It was the greatest gardening accomplishment I’ve ever had. Not only was it beautiful it saved me so much money. I couldn’t have had the same amount of flowers, herbs or even veggies if I didn’t start it that way.
I agree we more of theses types of videos thank you for showing us your beautiful garden💜🌼
@@salvi92thank you. ❤
Agree!! Wonderful!!
Do you have motivated me to get back into my garden?
I am a Master Gardener. I grow thousands of zinnias every year. My Grandma's favorite. I loved your video.
What a lovely part of your grandma to carry on. Thank you for watching. It means so much to me.
Love zinnias! I hope to become a master gardener like you! I feel like somewhat of a beginner but I remember my first zinnia planting. I was amazed- so easy and beautiful!
@@laurastreet7600 that is such an honor to me. Thank you. You know it’s just year after year of never stopping learning ❤️
I would’ve never thought to go to dollar tree for seeds! This is a great tip for beginner gardeners like myself😅 Thank you!
You are so welcome! Me either. I just happen to stumble on them last year and gave them a try and was blown away.
I bought some last year from there and had an amazing cottage garden
If you grow tomatoes, put some Marigolds and Basil at the base of them. Where I did that last year, I didn’t have tomato hornworms! I hate those nasty things! I recommend checking to see which plants/flowers and trees may be invasive before planting. New gardeners may not be aware and what a nightmare they can cause sometimes. Your flowers are pretty!
I do my best to always share if things are invasive or spread and try my best to give those recommendations, but say that, and as with any of the videos I post, always do your research. I’m certainly not responsible for everybody else’s garden, I can’t even halfway keep up with mine. I appreciate your tips and for you watching. Thank you so so much.
This was by-far one of the best flower videos I have ever watched!!
I never comment stuff like this but just wanted to say that your personality is absolutely joyful and amazing. I could watch you teach me about anything for hours 😂
THANK YOU!!!! My goodness that is so so so sweet. 🥹
The repeating theme in this video is "These grow to 1-2 feet, but these here are 3-4 feet" The takeaway is this gal has magic soil and a magic touch! 😜 I'm subscribing now and hope some of the magic rubs off on me. Fabulous garden!!
Now I like this! You made me laugh! You’re in for a treat lol
Hair up in a pony tail up? That’s all i needed to hear! Thank you for the suggestion, those will be my first flowers!!❤
I pinch off the coleus flowers and keep them in a paper bag separated out by color. I received seeds at my Dr. office believe it or not! And ever since, I have a new found passion in life! I absolutely fell in love with growing coleus and propagating them, it is so so fun to make beautiful things grow and multiply!!
At your drs office? How crazy is that? I’m in love with Coleus. It’s so underrated ❤️
It's so nice to see people planting native and not so fancy flowers and plants. Great video!
Thank you! It’s fun!
Mexican Sunflowers attract Butterflys. You gave yourself a cottage garden vibe. Love the masses together. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much that means so much to me
You are welcome@@thesoutherndaisyllc
What a beautiful, easy to grow, plant. Lots of bees and butterflies, great color and can get 8' tall and 6' wide in the right location. Next year plant more than one. Another favorite plant: Pineapple Sage. Wait till end of summer and early fall with beautiful red flowers and hummingbirds. I plant mine in a small concrete planter and cheat by getting the small plant at the garden center. This year mine is coming back and it gets huge.
They are also a fantastic fertilizer when added to the compost. I’ve heard of some gardeners who grow veggie/fruit gardens almost exclusively and then grow the Mexican sunflowers specifically to put into their compost for nitrogen and phosphorus. They add more to the garden than they take away. Plus as an added bonus they attract pollinators into gardens that otherwise wouldn’t have that much in it to attract them. I put them near my cucumbers and other plants that need to be pollinated. Works every time with amazing results.
I now plant from seed like there's no tomorrow. Cures my winter blahs starting them early on my window sill.
Cheers all gardeners!
Yes!!!!! What a gift flowers are to us all ❤
I too love this video! Not only did you show how you started your seeds, but what the final plant looks like. And not just the flower, but the whole plant. It drives me crazy when I can only see the bloom but don't see the 4ft plant that would be completely inappropriate in a certain space. Thanks sooo much!
So nice of you. I actually am working on a part two to this. I found more flowers that I didn't show so I thought everyone loves this one as much as I do so I am going to add on to it. Thanks for the encouragement too. That helps tremendously knowing what's helpful and what isn't.
Trying to plant a 100. By 100 foot yard in all my favorite flowers, thank you so very much, my bactth
I have watched this video 20 times and will probably watch it again and again. Love seeing all the flowers, it just calms me. Gets me excited for the flowers I also want to grow. Thank You please make more videos love them all 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Your Zinnias are the show stopper! Magnificent ❤
Thank you so much. I did plant them too close together and ended up having a powdery mildew disaster so this year I’m gonna have to do a better job of spacing them out.
I love how passionate you are about your flowers. Thank you for the tour and very detailed descriptions.
Oh thank you so much for saying that I am crazy passionate that’s for sure 🤦♀️
Other than the Dollar Store, where else do you get seed packets?
Hi, I have had bad luck with Stock too. Thank you for your confirmation! Best, Albert, SF, CA
Yeah, I am not a fan. I gave it two seasons and it’s a no for me.
Coleus roots really easily. I take lots of cuttings in October, and root in water until the following spring.
It sure does 😊
I was wondering if they did………I have a beautiful plant outside and I have some cuttings in water now.
I am doing this for the first time this year. I think I'm going to save thousands of dollars by looking at the germination rate of all the perennials and Annuals I started from seeds. I'm excited to see my beds full of flowers.
I love this video! Seeing the results including the ENTIRE plant is so helpful. Most videos just show the pretty bloom and ignore the rest. I’ve watched this video at least five times. Great content!
AH!!!!!! I LOVE THIS! I am so happy that it was helpful and even more that it was worth another watch and even five. You made my day! Thank you so much.
Lots of snails eating my zinnias every year😢. I can only have them in pots. Don't you have any problems with snails in your garden?
Stunning gadern❤❤
I don’t but I do have issues with powdery mildew and my Zinnias.
Thank you ☺️
Coleus root super easy in water. If you got one you love specifically just break off a 4-5 inch stem remove bottom leaves and any flowers and plop into a glass/vase with water. I keep mine on the kitchen sink window sill and in about a week you got roots. I then pot it up for overwintering or plant out in warm weather. I even kept one all winter long in water with changing the water out frequently and by spring it had a huge root ball. LOL
What a great video. Thank you so much and your garden is picture perfect.
Well, that is quite the compliment. Thank you so much.
Love this video. I agree completely. Starting the flowers from seed is so satisfying and a ton cheaper. Most are so vigorous you can have a full garden the very first year. I start everything from seed including my veggies. With todays led grow lights it costs next to nothing to run. I end up filling my livingroom with seedlings but im preparing this year to winter sow for next year. That will save a a ton of space. I did dalias last year for the first time and i wished i paid more attention cause i only ended up with a few plants and they were gorgeous. So this year i have a bunch of seedlings. I dont have to plant some stuff cause it self sows like marigolds. I just dig up and move them if i want. I collect hollyhock seeds but this year (still very early for me) i have quite a few starting to come up. Thank you for sharing your garden its just beautiful and definitely has a cottage vibe.
What a gorgeous garden! You have now inspired me to go back by my shed and plant some seeds today. We are expecting rain tomorrow, so this is a perfect opportunity!
Yay!!!! 😁
Oh my gosh, I absolutely love your flower garden! This is exactly what I am trying to do with a neglected area at the assisted living where my Mom lives! I have already started winter sowing some black eyed susans, yarrow, and daisies. So thanks SO much for the inspiration for other seeds to winter sow! I'm so excited and hope I can come up with something even half as beautiful as what you have done!
And last year was my first year growing coleus and what a nice surprise it turned out to be for me as well! I cut the tops off of them before the frost, rooted them in water and then planted them in pots where they are waiting in my garage for spring! :)
Oh this makes my heart so happy. Your mom and all the residents at the assisted-living facility are going to love anything that you do. My mom is 86 years old and is the reason I fell in love with gardening at four years old. Now it will forever live in me. I love love love that you are doing this, please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with this.
1st time viewer of your channel and this was a great idea to show the seed packets and results! Going to subscribe. I plant a lot of Tithonus seeds as the butterflies love it here in 6a northwest Ohio. A tip for anyone new with this plant is that I try to plant them near a natural stake to tie them to as we usually have a couple extremely windy days in late summer that will take them over….and they continue to grow even if tipped over! The squirrels sometimes enjoy a few leaves, but they grow so big, that’s ok. Saving the seeds is easy, too.😊. Beautiful gardens you have!
I leave my plants up all winter because they sustain the birds when food is scarce.
So pretty! You can't beat zinnias for summer color! I have one more batch to sow, Aztec and Persian Carpet zinnias and Rubenza cosmos for fall color. The bees love the coleus blooms, but I keep the blooms cut off until September. They will drop seed and you may get some volunteers next spring. I rely on several varieties of coleus for fall color: Inferno, Rustic Orange, Redhead and Henna. I do not try to overwinter the parent plant. I root smaller branches in water and/or dirt later in August or September so I don't have to keep such large plants. I keep them in my garage where the temps have sometimes dipped to 39 (but not often) and they are very happy. Stock does not like hot weather so the way yours looks is typical. I am not pulling my plants out but waiting to see if they will revive in the fall since this is my first time planting. I started snapdragons last fall and they are still going strong. I kept them in pots outside all winter except for the nights when it was single digits, and then I pulled them into my garage. I have been cutting off the seed heads and fertilizing, and am hoping they will last until this fall since I couldn't find any in the garden centers last fall. You need to try the Audray series of gomphrena for much larger flower heads and more branching. Another plant that I wintersowed that is still blooming is scabiosa. The bees love it! I had one Dara plant that overwintered and finally died when it got really hot. I winter sowed some so I would have them for the swallowtail caterpillars: it was their favorite last year, along with dill and parsley. You will not need to reseed the Asian Garden celosia. I had one plant four years ago and still have seedlings every single year. I have Sunday Gold and Celway Terra Cotta celosia which I started from seed last year but they volunterred this year. I absolutely love them!
What a great message. You are so full of knowledge. I had no reseeding of the coleus so I planted lots of seeds. The variety you recommended sounds amazing and you can’t beat zinnias. You’re right
So excited to see this. I really can’t afford to buy potted planted & this would save countless dollars & be fun to watch them grow into a plant.
Then it’s perfect for you!!!!!! So excited for you.
Your garden is paradise, you have humming birds!😊
Thank you so much. 😊 Literally moved me to tears several times from the beauty ❤️
Bless you. I am showing people your lovely recordings x

Beautiful garden, beautiful flowers🌸🌺🌻🌹🌷🌼💐, love ❤it....... if I live in place like this, I won't go anywhere...
You know when it was that beautiful, I would walk outside and cry tears of joy, looking at the beauty all around me.
Thank you for sharing this! This was an amazing video! I will be saving this for all my future reference! It will be watched multiple times!
You are awesome. Thank you so much that is awesome and by the way, I’m making another video just like it with the seeds and plants that I realized I didn’t feature.
Love this video. The explanation of every plant, how tall they grow, the package. Awesome video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much
the butterflies were all over my Zinnias last year. Can't wait for more
Aren’t they gorgeous? It makes everything in the world that feels hard or sad or disappointing to melt away even for a few moments. I get lost in watching them go from flower to flower ❤️
Really enjoyed your show of all your seed flowers, and how much you appreciated their beauty……I feel the same way, I love growing flowers!
We are so fortunate to have a such thing as flowers to play in. I love that there are so many of us that feel this way too. 🌸
Beautiful garden 😍 ❤
I think ill start a flower garden from seed after seeing this!
What a wonderful garden, brightened my day from Australia ❤ thank you
Thank you so much!!! Welcome and I appreciate you joining from Down Under :-)
What a well done video! I’ve watched what feels like 50 different gardens videos in preparation for a new garden I’m growing and this was hands down the best one! Clear, perfect description, great camera work and I love every one of the flowers you have chosen. I wish I had found this video first and I wouldn’t have had to watch the others 😂
This comment right here is so special to me. Wow! I am almost speechless. That is such an honor for you to say I really really appreciate it and will do many more like that. As a matter fact I’m working on one right now I realize there were so many Seeds that I didn’t even feature that I actually have videos of

Thank you so much. I am actually working on another one of the plants flowers that I realized I didn’t feature, so be on the lookout and will absolutely do more this summer. I can’t explain to you what an overwhelming response I have gotten from people saying the same thing. I thought about it when I decided to make it and thought I always wondered what this plant would look like so decided decided I would do it for myself, and for other people who may feel the same and it seems like there’s a lot of people that felt the same lol.
Fantastic garden. Incredible that it was all from seed. Good for you! It shows that you don't have to spend a fortune to have a great garden if you grow from seeds. Thank you
Yes, thank you. I am so happy to have discovered a way to have my cake and to eat it too. It makes my whole heart happy and I know that it will yours also!
Loved the tour of your garden. I did a small pollinator garden from seeds I started last year. I had bee balm, scarlet sage, anise hyssop, coreopsis, black eyed Susan’s, blue sage, lambs ear and butterfly weed all started from seeds. I added lantana and a butterfly bush that I purchased. It was in bloom all summer long and filled with hummingbirds, butterflies and bees. They also visited my vegetable garden where I had planted a row of marigolds and another of zinnias. I enjoyed watching all the visitors on the flowers while working in the garden.
I will be starting more seeds from some of the ones you showed to add to my pollinator garden this year.
Thank you so much for sharing ❤️ your garden sounds lovely ☺️
Your garden is beautiful, thank you for sharing. I am going to start next year with seeds. It is very expensive to buy seasonal flowers. Thank you for the video and your time.
I'm so glad you are going to give it a try! It is definitely more economical and you get to see the whole life cycle of the flower. So rewarding. Please let me know if if there’s anything I can do to help you on this journey.
Thank you ! I will watch Your video over and over and over again, I will not get tired of your video I did learn from you a lot .You are the best .🌹
Love the video. It’s such a dopamine boost seeing all the beautiful colors of flowers. Awesome yard
I totally agree! Even watching it back now is giving me life lol
Really love this tour with info and comparisons. Thank you for taking the time to share it. From Wales, UK Jane
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for coming along and I hope all is well in Wales :-) Come back anytime!
I just discovered your wonderful channel. I to have Daisy in my name, but somehow I can't grow Daisies either. I love that you used seeds from Dollar Tree store. I bought seeds last year from on line more expensive shops and the seeds I bought from Dollar Tree and Walmart actually worked the best for me in my Zone 6a Massachusetts garden. I guess more expensive isn't always better. I hope you have a lovely day. Happy Planting 😊 🏵🪷🪻🌷🌼🌻
Yessss! This is exactly right! I’m glad it’s not just me. Thank you for sharing and making me not feel so bad over the daisies lol. 😂
This video was SO helpful!! Thank you for taking the time to do it and show us all of them in bloom! ❤
You are so welcome!
Please make more of these kinds of videos. They are so fun
Thank you! This is a real service to the plant community ❤
Wow! This is so nice of you to say. Thank you!
This year I planted lots of my flowers from seed. I’ve planted zinnias,Large marigolds,cleome, cosmos and wildflower mix. They are all small just coming up but a good stand. I get great satisfaction from sowing seed in the ground Going to try the ones you have shown in your inspiring video!Fun to watch Thank You 😀
Your Garden is Beautiful. Thank You for the video.
I love the tour with the seed packets! You don't have to worry about ever planting the dill, feverfew, calendula, and forget me not again! I absolutely love the coleus. My dill does last well in a vase so maybe give it another try. I've never seen that particular celosia before but it's beautiful Glad I stumbled onto your UA-cam
Oh thank you for telling me. I so appreciate it!
That Asian garden is our princess feathers…the pink flowers are FULL of little black seeds…cut them off and put into a paper sack…you will have a million seeds
Our FOUR OCLOCKS are more like six thirty….they also are full of black seeds after the flower blooms…you will have millions of seeds to share…put into a paper sack and let them dry out
I love your video! Seeing all of these beautiful flowers when they are at maturity helps me so much to know what I want to grow!
I am working on a part two right now. I figured that would be helpful for me so I wanted to share that with you guys and sounds like it’s also helped others. What is your favorite that you saw?
Stocks like cooler weather, mine grew like crazy but would not bloom. Then come fall the ones that survived summer bloomed and were beautiful. After research I learned they are a cool season flower and I had planted at wrong time.
Ahhhh I didn’t know this either so thank you 😊
I am in NC in what is now 8b...New Bern....I guess we are relatively close...I'm glad I found you! Thanks for your video
This is the first year I've grown anything from seed. I've had pretty good success. I will try more next year thanks to your encouragement! 🌞
That’s awesome. Yea I’m 2 hours west from you.
This is legit the best video I have ever seen to help plant my flower garden. Thank you for the guidance! And thank you for showing me dollar store seeds are legitimate 🎉
I love your message. How incredibly kind of you to say. It’s so exciting to know that you are going to give dollar tree seeds a shot. You’re gonna be so happy you did! Thank you again!
This has been my most favorite gardening video I’ve ever watched! So helpful and wonderful. Thank you!
Really???? What makes you like it so much?
@@thesoutherndaisyllcbasically exactly what another commenter said named Marcia, the fact that you show the packet and then the real plant and explain how you sowed it and the likes and dislikes. It’s fabulous! Very personable and honest. I’m a visual learner so having you show the packet and explain stuff while filming the plant itself makes it easy to understand and help visualize what it might look like in my yard! Sometimes just reading that something gets a certain size doesn’t really resonate with me lol but seeing it is like, oh!!! That’s what it looks like! lol Hope all that makes sense.
this is by far my favorite video you've made. It's soooo good. Can't wait to see next years :D Love you tons
You're the best!
Gorgeous yard!!! Prize winning!!! Thank you
Thank you! 😊
What a beautiful garden
Great video! I watched it twice!
I grew the same Stalk flower in fall and it bloomed in late winter/early Spring. They were beautiful and smell really good. You should try again as a cool season flower.
I also grew the green mist and am not a fan as a cut flower. The flower sheds everywhere and flowers attracts flies.
Oh wow! 🤩 thank you so much. I’m glad I’m not alone in thinking about those flowers lol
Congratulations. I have been growing from seed for years and winter sowing 4 years. It’s so rewarding and easy. Lots to share too.
What are your favorites to winter sow?
Thanks for sharing. I enjoy growing from seeds. It is less expensive.
Me too!!!!!
This video taught me so much. For the first time ever, I’ve purchased seeds to sow indoors as we head into spring here in the Southern Hemisphere. I’m now able to see from your video how to create a balanced look with proportional height ‘tiers’, plus make a mental note to self about staking! Thank you so much! I really enjoyed your tour. 🙏🌷
Gorgeous garden! This is the kind of video I look forward to watching
That’s so nice of you to say. I’m glad you liked it 🌸
Best video ever!! Thank you so much for sharing!! I have been looking for a video like this. What an inspiration ❤
You are so welcome! That makes me happy 🥹
Thank you for sharing all those followers. So so so beautiful!
Thank you so much for all this information!! Blessings
You are so welcome, I am glad it was well received. Have a great day :-)
Wow! These flowers are just spectacular! I Love it!!
OMG you have a huge garden!❤🥰🌼🌸🌼🌸
Yes I do! My husband is just so thrilled lol. (He loved his grass until this happened lol)
There are many beautiful flowers that I really like
Thank you
Anise hyssop was my #1 surprise flower last year. Bought two pots at a nursery. Grew to 4 feet, bloomed until fall and bees were on it all day, every day. Your video gets me excited for spring planting here in the midwest!
It was mine as well! Isn’t it incredible? I can’t wait to plant more can you
I am in zone 7b, too! Glad I found you. I have been wondering about doing a direct sow of seeds that I 'meant' to plant earlier. I am going for it-even though this is pretty late. We'll see what happens in spring!
Wow beautiful garden! I absolutely solute you for what you’ve grown. Flowers makes me so happy when they bloom. This year I grown zinnias, cosmo, nasturtiums, morning glory, for the first time from direct sow and they are absolutely beautiful. I love all the ones you planted that you gave 2 thumbs up so will have to try to grow some of them next yr. Thanks for your tips!
Yay!!!! You’re well on your way!😊
Wow, your garden is indeed a paradise for the pollinators! It's my dream garden which looks like a meadow and a prairie, naturally awesome and beautiful! I love butterflies, too, so I always include monarda, asclepias, zinia, cynoglossum, four o' clock, hollyhock, calendula, nasturtium, alyssum, etc in my garden.
Thank you so much for coming on my walk with me. Yours sounds magical with all the most beautiful flowers. Ok so what is the trick with four o'clocks? I can't figure them out. They are gorgeous but leggy. I want to get it right this go round!
Hello. Sophomore gardener here from Pennsylvania. I really enjoyed your video 😊
Tell me how long you’ve been gardening? Sophomore is clever!
@@thesoutherndaisyllc 2 years. This winter I will be starting from seed inside. I’m excited and nervous.
Definitely a cottage garden vibe! It's so satisfying growing these beautiful plants from seed :)
Great video! I'm starting a pollinator garden this year and it is so eye opening to see what the flowers will actually look like. Thank you!
How amazing. Yes, I thought so too. The seed pack pictures are great but don't give me enough motivation. Glad you liked this. :-)
Great turnout! Wish we could have chatted directly as I have many of the same flowers.
We have extreme drought in WI this year. We had crazy Rain in January and it was soooo warm, then we had March weather in April and our last rain up till las Monday was in May. All I have been doing is watering until we finished one garden with irrigation on the 11th last week and it poured on the 12th! Go figure🙄. Should’ve done it sooner, but just found the local parts and I wanted to see it so I could understand what I needed.
So, I was observing different growth patterns and zinnias are one that can vary depending on how it’s planted. I have the old fashion mix I save seed from and it is a mix of singles, doubles and the crazy big crowned ones. Last year I planted some by themselves and they got Huge! I found if they are crowded they don’t branch out with thick stems. They don’t do well in sandy soil in direct heat without amending soil and regular water. I was in a hurry this year and just felt in a race to get my flowers planted. I had many new seed and thought I’ll just plant in clumps and divide later. Well, the zinnias look like a chia pet lawn😂😂. I have tons of seed and got a bit crazy. The soil was freshly amended and they look great so far, but afraid they may not be at their best at maturity. They can mildew also. Last year the double pink by itself looked like roses-just wonderful!
I’ve had difficulty with cosmos before and they didn’t do well out by yard light and wonder if light all night long messed them up. Yet I threw them in a dirt patch with sunflowers and coreopsis and it was a show indeed.
Four o clocks are very nice, but the Japanese Beetles love them like roses.
Brown Eyed Susan’s are a bright spot and they show up along with the blanket flower that reseed every year. Thing I don’t like about BESs is they can dry up and mildew and need to pull and they can flop. Many flowers tend to be weak and flop if given abundance of water and crowded. A fine line to make them all happy. The sun and slightly drying out before watering can toughen the stems up. It is very difficult here this year as Everything is heat stressing and impossible to let them go without water as they would fry.
I also got dollar store coleus and first time and they are such a Rich color-delighted.
New is dahlia from seed and they don’t like the straight sun here and need a lot of water. Calendula is new and love them and they don’t handle heat well. Oh, heck! The whole bunch of native plants and weeds can’t handle it and fried! Why would I expect anything more from new plants 🤪. The lavender is handling it well with a bit of water. Even the Yuccas are dried up and that’s saying something!
There were a lot of flops with winter sowing this year. It was just too warm. I’ve decided it doesn’t matter when I start them and later would probably be better because I think some may have germinated too soon and froze or they rotted. Will definitely not use bag method again. I’m starting most garden seeds Much later next year and maybe it would be warm enough I can do it all in the greenhouse and heat a few hours at night. Wayyyy too many problems indoors this year that I’ve never had-gnats and aphids-it was awful.
And the drought just was the icing on top because the wildlife is attacking EVERYTHING including hostas they ate to the ground and never Ever touched before.😮. I have to barricade EVERYTHING to the point I can’t hardly enjoy the flowers. They eat day lillies like bon bons and bird netting has to be secure way above or they will knock all the buds off. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg as we have had multiple problems and VOLES I never seen in my life-crimmeny crickets! They ate a bunch of spring bulbs and now trying to figure out if it’s them still rutting things up and eating lettuce or if we still have a coon issue.
😂😂then there is the insects😂😂😂
I almost threw in the towel when we had a freak frost just before Memorial Day and now weather warning-I was devastated!!
I had to replant many and luckily it didn’t hit the flats. I gave up writing everything down as I have many new varieties this year. It’s a mess. It was so warm this spring who would have thought about frost when we were in the 90s?! So hence the reason I have swathes of crowded flowers waiting to be separated as I’ve been fighting a war with hose in hand. And let’s not forget to add the days we were stuck inside because of smoke from fires and now CA is smoking.🙄🤯
A couple flowers that are cottage style are tall Phlox and Sweet Williams.
I have Tithonia because you said you loved them and now I don’t know if I planted them direct, WS’d or maybe not at all. I haven’t had much time trying to keep the plants watered sometimes twice a day. I always felt like I was forgetting something. So I rely on people like you with great videos so I can try and recognize the leaves in hope to figure this mess out before it gets close to freezing again. We only have approximately 130 days.
I seriously have to come up with a system so I can just pull shade fabric in place. I have an idea. Wish I was one to video tape some of my garden dilemmas and so that others may benefit. I just don’t have the time.
Thx 4 the tour!
I had a chance to use winter sowing once, and it yielded very good results. I lost two summers after that because we moved overseas for a year, but going to start lots of seeds this year. That was my first experience with seeds, I used to be intimidated by them. Highly recommend for those who didn't use it yet to study this method and try it. We live in high altitude 8700, and it worked great! In our case, for heat loving plants like tomatoes and peppers I would try to add aditional protection, when it gets warm setting a jug in a cold frame or greenhouse which I will have this year so they would germinate and grow in timely manner. Our last frost date is in mid June and nights stay very cold until then and just cold after. They did germinate, but it was too late to put them in the ground. For this year I also got lots of flower seeds. Watching your video I'm getting even more excited for the summer!
That’s awesome. I’m sure trying to find how things work in the new place and climate is tough but you sound like you’re doing it 😊
😂@@thesoutherndaisyllc
I winter sowed forget me nots last season. I was hooked. you can't get enough blue flowers. I was impressed too. Hi from Utah
Isn’t it the most beautiful blue? I was mesmerized
I live the original bananna creme daisy its so lovely, I tried my hand at the white daisy but it was not happy. The bananna creme sermed to just bloom all last year, never missed a beat. Thank you for showing us the good, bad and the ugly of what you grew this year. Im trying zinnias for the first time this year in a few different places.
Beautiful! I'm from England and always remember the English gardens being this sort of more wild looking and lovely. I'm not a fan of boring rows of one flower type and monocolor that I see here in the US a lot.
This is everything to me. The fact that you are actually among the English gardens and that you find that my garden is beautiful maybe the highlight of my entire year. I cannot express the smile how big it is on my face. I want to thank you so so much. This is everything.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

This was such a wonderful and helpful video!
Glad you think so! Thank you for watching ❤️
Absolutely stunning! I’m in Va and it’s crunch time for me now planting everyday! You inspired me to buy some more packs of seeds to start. I want my yard to look just like this along my fence area and my house. I know I don’t have the money to do it buying plants. Thanks for showing me I can have this with starting my own by seed. Thanks for sharing. Oh and I just discovered the Mexican Sunflower last year. I definitely want to get some growing! Moonflower is one of my favorite. I grew it every year for years! I would mix it and a morning glory plant together to get blooms morning and night. I grew hyacinth bean vine one year and had great success. Took all summer before I got flowers though.
This is fantastic. You just helped me so much. I wanted to grow my morning glory and also my moonflower but only have one panel so I was stumped! I’m going to do what you did and mix them. That’s such a great idea. By the way, you will be getting a shout out! :-) You sound like you are well on your way to having a gorgeous summer full of blooms!
Love this video. I enjoyed listening to your reviews on your wonderful garden. Thank you!
I'm so happy! Thank you for letting me know it was worthwhile. I get ideas that I think would help me and sometimes they aren't super interesting to others so it's always great to know. Thank you for watching and for taking time to comment.

Your garden is amazing! I'mm in Florida and it is HOT! I don't have a lot of free time but gardening really makes me happy. I am always looking for plants that are easy to grow and bring me joy with little work. Thank you so much for the videos and inspiration!
Hi from the UK, I grew crazy daisy for the first time this year and they are truly crazy and fluffy daisies. You’ll love them when they get going trust me. Deb x
The only flowers I tend to grow from seed are marigolds and nasturtums. I save seeds from other flowers I buy. This year I plan on growing more flowers from seed. Your video is inspiring. Thank you for showing the seed packet first.
So nice of you. I hope you’ll try some new too.
Try geraniums too. Super easy!
So many plants I’ve never heard of in 🇬🇧. ❤
Do you think you'll try any of them? I would love to hear what works there.
What a beautiful garden ❤❤❤
Wonderfully, the Coleus will also root in a glass of water...often in less than a week. So, you can grow many of them on your window sills, if short on space. ❤😊
Tip cuttings with most leaves stripped are very easy.
I feel a video experiment coming up. Do you mind if I ask you name so I can give you a shout out? Thank you for this tip. I am going to try it. :-)

Thank you so much!!😊
Hi Robbie, I bought a raised bed so this year I plan to plant some tomatoes, Radishes, and some herbs in it. I also just brought a cheap seed starting kit. I have cosmos,Zinnias both in warm and cool tones. I also have sunflowers in some beautiful colors. I also got English Daisy, painted daisy, purple coneflower, columbine, Canterbury bells, foxgloves,and hollyhocks. 😂 the cheap started kit only has 36 starting cells. I have a feeling I’m going to have to find anything that I can convert into a container for starting all these seeds. I plan on sharing my seeds with my 86 year old Auntie.🌼🌺🌸🦋🐝
This sounds lovely! I bet you will want to start collecting containers now it sounds like you are in for a lot of gardening :-)
