You are the total epitome of you reap what you sow. Its beautiful Catherine you make so much of your little garden and work so hard. I've enjoyed your journeys with you x
So much hard work but every single thing you do is so worth it! What a beautiful, tranquil space to sit and have a cup of tea. I love that you have so many different "areas" including a pond, shade garden, veggies/fruit, firepit, greenhouse, and sun-loving plants ALL within a smaller fenced yard! Just wow! With all of that said, my favorite part is your consideration for the hedgehogs, insects and, of course, Blondie
At 67 y.o. in u.s.a. northern lower mich. Been gardening all my life, sewing, crafting, woodworking, you name it I do it. I found this video my fav so far. Your little garden turned out so beautiful. You made lovely use of every inch. Loved this video so much, so relaxing and inspiring. I feel our gardens are good for our soul. Love your sewing ideas also. I'll be watching. Love so much seeing the younger generation interested in nature in every way. You are just so adoreable. Great video, thank you!
It's amazing how much difference just a year makes, your garden is looking so gorgeous! It's honestly all thanks to you for giving me the belief that I could do it, that started me off on my gardening journey...and well, now I'm a little bit addicted 😄 It has become the most therapuetic thing for me, I now have flowers and an abundance of wildlife that visit. I enjoy it all so much, so, thank you! xx
From one Catherine to another. 💜 Love your videos and your realness. Not how TO garden, but how I garden.... True words! 😂 Your garden is precious! My chickens eat all my flowers. 😏
I got a new home, downsized last August. Had to start a neglected yard from the 1950's from scratch. You've been one of my favorite channels, Laura, Monty and PlantQueen too. My yard has come such a long way in one season and you've been a big part of the inspiration! Thank you for all you do!
I love what you've done and am especially glad that you share the work that went into it! When you're just starting to plan a garden and then start planting, it looks bare and you wonder if it'll ever look good & you're proof that it does! I'm impressed you're so young, single and own your own place! Keep up the good work :)
Catherine, Thank you so much for sharing your garden journey with us! It is amazing (and truly inspiring) to see what you have done in such a short time. I love that you have "untidy borders and weeds" because that is the reality of life. Your garden is a reflection of your hard work and love of nature. You have created a beautiful garden area. I love it. Well done!!
your efforts are paying off. Thank you for the update. Also, I am impressed that you manage to stay tidy when working in white or light clothing. I am such a mess when I garden.
Nothing better than sitting back with a cup of tea or coffee in the early morning with the birds singing and enjoying the beauty of the garden!....Blondie definitely loves your garden!....everyone should try gardening... it really is just making sure your plants will grow in the right zone and adequate light or shade and watering and fertilizing properly.
This has been the best video I’ve seen for starting a cottage garden! Thanks I’ve been searching for months for this information and the visual you supplied. Happy I found your video!
Your garden is looking beautiful. You have done so much! I agree about the mulch. It has made such a difference in our borders. I love gardening, and keep at it even though as I age,and with arthritis it hurts...but flowers and veg are so worth it! I need to get out there and water.
This was so encouraging thank you. I just started a new flower bed and this was inspiring and lovely. Now I look forward to a year from now, my pile of dirt could be the start of something lovely.
As always you are such an inspiration. Whether it's in the garden or in the house, I get inspired by you. Your garden is so beautiful. I agree with your idea of doing your garden how you want and not what others say. I had bulbs start blooming this week that I had almost given up on. 24 gladiola bulbs in pastel colors. Every couple days a new one blooms and I'm surprised by what color it turns out to be So far, peach, white, pink and lavender. I split my bearded iris last autumn and they went crazy this year. My veggie garden suffering a lot from a family of groundhogs that are eating them all. Everyone keeps saying to shoot or poison them and I'm just NOT going to do that. I'd rather share this year and put in better fencing next year.
All of your hard work has really paid off. Your garden is absolutely beautiful! I'm sure your local wildlife and bee community think so too. Maybe they'll spread the word and you'll soon have some busy ladybugs. Loads of love to you and Blondie.💕
Each and every one of your videos is a joy to watch. You keep saying that your plants are happy - they are just reflecting your own personality. It’s going to be a treat to see how your garden evolves in the coming years. An inspiration!!!
I loved watching your progress from start through the journey to the present! Gardening is such hard work but a rewarding one for sure! Especially when you get to sit in your resting area and just enjoy the beauty. I adore your hedgehog hole in your garden gate and I admire your willingness to just jump in and have a go at creating such a beautiful space!
AND in the middle of all your gardening, you had your book published!!!! You are truly an inspiration to me. I find myself following in your tidying up activities in my own little space after watching each of your Sunday videos. Thank you so much for sharing your life and thoughts with us. What goes around, comes around. Ciao Bella, Ryn
Thank you so much for sharing this progression video of your garden, and your honest tips at the end. This was so encouraging. Being a newbie gardener and a perfectionist, I was feeling so overwhelmed. But hearing your reminder to take it easy, things can still be moved about, plant it in and see how it does, this all just gave me a chance to breathe. You have beautiful garden, and an enven more beautiful soul 💝
Been watching from the start of your gardening journey. You have come soo far in a short space of moments. This is your never ending story, of all Happy things. Enjoy the process xx
I have shared the journey with you and loved it all. This video really does show it all. A big well done to you. It was especially comforting through covit. Thank you 😉
What a great video! Watching the journey is a total treat, so glad you shared this. I need to get out in the front garden to finish the brick border but the 95°+ F (35°C) have done me in. It will wait. Thanks for another great video.🐝🐞🌻
You have really accomplished so much in a reasonably short time . Thanks for sharing your successes and ever evolving garden . It really is an extension of your home , and your home is adorable 💛 Happy Gardening 👩🌾
I put in a couple of pollinator watering systems. For the littlest insects who might drown in a deeper pond. I just placed a couple of ceramic chargers filled with pebbles and water in my garden. Being Arizona, though, I get to fill them up everyday.
Oh I loved that video seeing the progress of your garden. I also love your woodland part of the garden so interested as I have trees at the end of my garden and saw what plants I could grow in the shade 👍 You have some great ideas and work hard in your garden 😀 well done. I like how you say do you in your garden 😊
1) how the heck do you stay so clean? 2) you’re doing amazing! I think you’d enjoy salvia shrubs. They come in every colour you could imagine. Cut back down low each spring when you see the new growth coming through and you get lush green growth and colour from March/April to October
What a true inspiration you are! I have wanted to do all these things in my yard but am so overwhelmed with it all... and terrified of spiders :( You have motivated me to rethink it all ♡
This was so inspiring!!!! Thank you for putting this together. I just found your channel this summer. I’m trying to get my yard in hand and this let me see what’s possible! Also, I loved seeing you and your brothers working together. I miss my brothers.
First video I ever watched was when u did picnic in the garden. So proud of how far you have come with the everything not just garden. So beautiful and so inspiring 😍
Thank u so much for another brilliant video u have done so well with your garden u have worked so hard well done it must be so nice for u to sit out in your posh chairs 🪑 have a good week uk 🇬🇧 🤗🪴💐
Hello from California, zone 10B. It's been awhile since I watched your videos. Your garden looks so beautiful. The hedgehog passthrough is adorable. After finishing up some unplanned garden repairs, I came inside, poured a cup of coffee and sat down to relax. Your video and soothing voice were perfect to unwind.
Thank you for your new video everything is looking amazing I love gardening and thank you so much for your book I live in Arizona and I already purchased my book it’s wonderful congratulations 🎊 so many ideas to follow God bless you and thank you for signing the book I am so excited with my book 💐😆
Oh boy oh boy! Guess what arrived yesterday? I spent a dreary, rainy day going through your wonderful book! I love the details and the photo of Pepsi, that little cutie! Never forgotten. And Blondie posing, what gorgeous portraits. You did an excellent job girl! Bravo! And thanks for the little gold signature. Be proud, I know your dad is! 💝
@@DaintyDiaries I sure did! I'm going to keep going thru it, just because. 😁 I love the calm color scheme all through the book, just beautiful. I hope you are planning on a second! 💝
You inspire me sweet girl! Such a lovely, beautiful space. All your hard work has become an amazing creation!!! What a peaceful, absolutely wonderful place you have made and have been kind enough to bring us along. I miss all the energy I had in my young years. It is so nice to see such a beautiful young lady as yourself enjoy your garden and home and use all your creative talents to bless all us subscribers! Bless you Catherine.

This was so nice to see the transformation at once. You’ll have to do this annually.
Yes! And i can’t wait to see how it changes for autumn 🍂
I love the hole you put in your door for the animals. Soooo cute!!!
I love your enthusiasm for gardening. I am not a gardener at all but I like watching your videos x
My favourite Sunday evening viewing 🙂
Your beautiful home garden beams love and coziness - something that so-called sterile gardens hardly ever have. ❤
Each and every one of your videos is a joy to watch. You keep saying that your plants are happy - they are just reflecting your own personality. It’s going to be a treat to see how your garden evolves in the coming years. An inspiration!!!
What a transformation, so lovely. Being Irish never got the green thumb for gardening so I admire people who can.
Lovely. I watched the beginning of your garden so it’s nice to see where it’s at!
Love watching your videos 💜 always cheers me up thank you 😊💜💐
The garden looks great, I like gardening as well it's very relaxing.
