OMG!!!!! I love your "Back Deck" Miss bonny wee lovely Chicago Gardener!!!! You have a nice swing on your back porch" too!!!! : ) I'm so in Love''' : )
You have such lovely, large decks. A real treasure for a city house. I can't wait till next month's tour to it all blooming. I would so appreciate a hydrangea video. I have one in my front yard in the ground, but I had no idea about dwarf ones! Hydrangeas are also a favorite of mine. Do you have an elevator in your building? I hope so! I couldn't imagine having to lug all the heavy planters, bags of soil, etc. up flights of stairs! Or maybe your husband takes cares of that chore for you?
Thanks for another great garden tour today and the deck looks beautiful. You have it so well cleaned up and tidy and beautiful plants. Thanks for sharing.
Very excited for your hydrangea video. I love hydrageas, and I do have one on the side of our house that is finally blooming. I'd like more, but there's no space. I do, however, have two pots by my front door that could accommodate some hydrangeas. The front area gets about 4 -5 hours morning sun. Good luck with the plum tree!
I have limited space too, and it's survival of the fittest for my plants. I would say if it's not something your that attached to re-home it if you can.
Your garden is looking great. I like the idea of vertical planters. Did you consider painting your vertical containers a colour that would blend in a bit more? The white seems a bit stark.
I’d cut all the woody stuff off and see what happens. Those are sucking energy from the bottom growth. I try extremes and my motto is Live or Die 😂. Then you will know at least if it’s worth keeping it. Lol. That is what I would do. Lol
Sometimes it kills me to kill plants however sometimes they simply gotta go. I don't know much about apple trees but I do know with peach trees you need to thin out about 6 inches between fruit because too many will break a limb?
Beautiful balcony garden, planters and pots, They are the bees knees.
Thank you!

Beautiful space. Love the church view. Getting a lot of inspiration for my balcony garden.
Thank you!!
So well arranged! beautiful back deck.
Thank you so much!
Great video! You have such a wonderful variety of flowers on both decks.
Thank you! I’m so excited for them to all start blooming.

A hydrangea video will be coming soon! We don’t have any elevator, so everything comes up the stairs. I carry the more light weight things 😆

Thank you! I’m trying to be extra tidy this year to keep debris from getting under the deck!

You should definitely do some dwarf hydrangeas in the front pots!
Excellent video, have a great weekend
Thank you. Have a great weekend!!

I agree!! Especially for a plant that takes up this much space.
If that Beach Plum (Prunus maritima ?) is grafted it looks like the rootstock has decided to take over. The odds don't look good .
Interesting! I’m not sure if it is or not but that would make sense.
Beautiful ❤
Thank you!!
Hahaha well the plum does look like death...maybe hack it down put into a smaller pot for now?
It looks so sad 😩 I feel like I let it down!

I actually like how the white there makes the flowers pop but what I’m hoping happens is the plants fill in so much you can’t even see the planter!

I like that motto!!
@@ChicagoGardener works for me! Lol
Maybe check for pests like spider mites on your plumb tree. I think I spotted a web there.
Thank you!!

It’s so hard for me to let plants go but I usually know it’s the right decision in the end!
Can please share link for compost maker

Grow a clematis on the tree.
Clematis has been in my list to add to the garden! Any favorite varieties?
