- It's so important to do your research before buying a product to use in your garden. Join me as I share my disaster in an open collaboration with #letsshareourplantsuccessordisasterstories hosted by @JENITASBFWELLWISHESGARDENING Please check out Jenita's channel and join in with your disaster or success story in the garden, simply by leaving her a comment that you're joining in. Afterall, we all have some disaster or success we can share with each other.
There's no question that I am a huge fan of "Carl Forrester" ornamental grass. It adds a huge amount of vertical contrast to your garden, while at the same time adding shade to some of those more sensitive plants to sun. Plus, if you don't cut it back in the fall/winter, you can look out your window daydreaming of gardening and see which way the wind is blowing. A very versatile plant to many different climates and drought tolerant. It's a winner and a keeper : )
Hii khu vườn của bạn rất rộng lớn và đẹp ,tôi rất thích khu vườn của bạn .

Thats awesome all that Goldenrod they say butterflies like it as well. Great product review ❤ your home looks so beautiful with all the green around it is so amazing to God be the Glory
There are thousands and thousands of pollinators when the goldenrod blooms. Hopefully I can capture that in an upcoming video. Amen, sister, God be the Glory ❤

Thanks for coming by Jenita and your encouragement. I looked this morning and I didn't see my channel under the hashtag. Is that because YT hasn't listed it? Not sure.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video of your amazing garden❤️💕🌹🌺
Thanks so much for watching and your kinds words of encouragement 🥰
Your garden looks wonderful. I do love the lattice and shade you’ve created. We learn as we go. Thank you for sharing! I know I need to build something for next year. It’s good to hear that you were safe from the storm. Have a wonderful Sunday! ❤😊
Thank you Donna Maria. Yes, learn as we go and then make adjustments if needed. Enjoy your Sunday as well 🥰
Thank you for the sunshine and the review 🌞🌼💛

I'm so glad every gardener has their own style! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for coming by 🙂
Glad the storm didn't do too much damage as your garden still looks great.☺
Thanks so much Anne. A little bit of sweat equity to change a few things is all it should take for now 🙂
Lovely Lovely 🎉❤❤❤
Thank you for coming by 🥰
Thank you for sharing and the tour much appreciated and your plants look good considering the windy conditions you have. And i have also subscribed to you as well and you have a great channel.
Hi Joran 🙂Thanks for the sub and watching my video. The video was uploaded a week ago and the plants are surprisingly doing better today, considering the conditions. I sub'd to your channel and will watch anything new you put out and catch up on earlier vid's when I have a bit more time. - Krista -
You have a lovely garden. We get windy here too. I love that you made a netting out of rope. I have never thought of doing that. Try making holes in the curtains so the wind can flow through. Like a half moon.
Thank you and thanks for stopping by and your suggestion 🙂I did end up taking down the black cloth and putting up another lace curtain which has holes and allows the rain through. I also decided that I will finish the rope netting on that side and secure it with a 2 x 4 at the top and bottom; rather than relying on the staples which I'm pretty sure won't hold. Or, I'm not willing to take the chance because the indeterminate cherry tomatoes will be anchored to the netting.
It's nice to be able to add your own touch to the garden and where I'm living the winds and rains are hard on my garden.😵💫
Thanks for stopping by. We adjust and grow to our climates as we have no control over the weather.
Thank you for sharing. It is amazing to me how different weather patterns and environmental issues are so different in other areas. ❤❤ We are all learning as we go. ❤❤
Very true Patricia. Thanks for coming by 🥰
Wow, looking great in spite of the “failures” of things you hoped would perform better. Your plants are coming in nicely and I just love your raised bed designs.
Had a staple gun for Art school that thing has come in handy. But down here so much rusts from our humidity.
Thanks for coming by. We try different things and sometimes need to make adjustments along the way 🙂
@@SouthFloridaSunshine I can image that rust would be an issue there.
Keep up the energy, stay connected!

Thank you 🙂
Good Morning 😊 I want to thank you for your love and support over on my UA-cam Channel. As soon as I had posted my garden disaster, your video showed up. I am so very happy to find another fellow Canadian UA-camr. And I subscribed as well! I am excited to watch your channel grow and flourish. Thank you so much for reaching out 💛💛
Well now, aren't we just two blessed Canadians to have found each other, lol. I never join others channels so that they will join mine. I join to learn, grow and support others. Thanks so much for subscribing and watching my video 🥰 - Krista - (Edited) Btw, I used to live in Manitoba for years and because of that I now have a love for ornamental grasses, as you may have seen. It reminds me of the prairies 🙂
Hello krista I enjoyed your video today..❤❤ I'm sorry you're shade set Didn't quite work as sure was pretty and i'm sure you will figure out an even better way.. Your yard is so pretty.You are working so hard and it's very Interesting❤❤
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I will get something up there temporarily to support the tomatoes and take some time to think of a better solution 🥰
Hello krista listening Sometimes this is how we learn what can or does work. Last year I had wind almost break a tomato stem. Taking note of what you said is working. Maybe adapt the idea in.
I used that fence staple to help secure the thumbs up ❤
Thanks so much and happy that you could use some of the ideas 🥰
You're a hard worker for your garden & landscape plants! I'm going to have to change my whole wildflowers shade landscape. A huge storm blew down a huge sycamore tree & caused damage to a white pine tree. Part of the sycamore is still leaning over my house & the pine is in danger of falling. All must be removed. They provided the necessary shade for my wildflowers. I'm in a quandary as to how to provided artificial shade as I plant new trees to replace the ones I must remove. Ahhh, gardening... always something to disrupt one's best intentions... good ol' Nature, huh?
Thanks for coming by. Yes, that tree of yours that came down was compromised bye the look of it. It sure did give shade though. Let me know what you decide to put up. Here, because I only have trees bordering my property, I most likely will end up putting 6 x 6's in the ground and cabling shade cloth overhead.
Great video. My garden suffers from being a wind site too, this year the sunflowers in pots have been blown over and battered badly. I'm looking forward to your plans for the Goldenrod.
Thanks for watching. I look forward to staying up to date on your content and being able to go back and watch older ones as well 🙂
Your home and garden is amazing wind makes your garden curtains disturbed try fiber sheets on topside and use wires instead of ropes
Thanks for your kind words. By fiber sheets do you mean weed barrier? Yes, I will most likely do wire next year but need to buy the cripper to crimp the wire into the sleeve 🙂Thanks so much for the suggestion. I do appreciate it.
Nice video ❤
Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Hi Krista, we had the same issue with line we used to hold up our blackberry vines. We ended up replacing it with a coated clothesline type that won't stretch. I had to embrace ornamental grasses out front because it's one of the things deer won't eat. 🙄
~ Sandra
Thanks for coming by Sandra and the tip on the coated wire. I may go that root next year but I will have to purchase the tool that crimps the sleeve down onto the cable 🙂
Yes, and I think we had to get something to pull it tight enough as well. It's not really straight when you get it.
~ Sandra
Thank you so much for taking the time talking about your project and explaining why and how especially with the rope with the stretching it makes perfect sense. I find your videos educational and fascinating for sure. I’m also interested in ornamental grasses. I definitely want to get some in front of the house here by me. My neighbor has beautiful clumps. I wonder if I could maybe ask if I could have a clump lol 😅what if they say no? 😮 I guess I’ll just get my own.😅
Thanks so much Susie for your kind words. My neighbor was over helping me get my 2 lawn mowers (yes, I have 2 now. I forgot to share that) working, lol, and made a suggestion about the rope. My plan now is to finish the one side and anchor it at the top, sides, and bottom with strapping or whatever I have laying around here. This was a brilliant idea that I hadn't thought of. There will still be some stretching but at least it will make the season without being pulled down by the weight of the tomatoes and peppers blowing around. I really like the nautical look of the rope. Yes, for sure ask your neighbor for a clump. Just say you noticed how nice it looked and wondered if you could get a piece 🙂Some ornamental grasses drop seed but "Karl Forester" is not one of them. Of course that would be my suggestion to get 😁It's possible that the nurseries in your area may have them still but they typically are brought in around May here and sell out pretty quickly. I don't think I've ever seen your front gardens btw 🤔🙂
Mother Nature is unpredictable
It certainly is. Thanks for coming by 🙂I watched one of your videos yesterday and left a like. I didn't happen to hear what your pet is? I was going to guess hedgehog but that's probably not right.
@@AlmostaGreenAcre-zs5eu yes, Ittybitty is a hedgehog. Thank you for watching..
@@mcdpoor Your welcome. Ittybitty is a cute name 🙂
I bet when it goes in bloom it’s gonna look like a pretty green forest
The blooms are bright yellow and sway in the wind. It's always pretty against the green forest. Thanks for stopping by Dutch 🥰
@@AlmostaGreenAcre-zs5eu that sounds amazing
we are also in a very windy area, I don't have a good suggestion for you!
Ya, wind can be challenging but I'll come up with some solutions. Thanks for watching 🙂and I'll be sure to share them.
