      Love utube better than tv. There is instructional stuff. There is alliance and interesting stuff on space archeology and scientific info. I am really tired of seeing guns and cruelty. And other mind effecting things on tv. We need this.

      Agree. UA-cam channels are fun, down to earth natural and the owners control what they do and not bound by mission statements or whatever. I have totally stopped watching TV with annoying ads and everything so unnatural....they are done according to a pattern - so predictable sequences etc. Love this channel and some more channels on gardening for vegetables

    Hi! I'm new to your channel and am loving it! Your husband and you remind me of my husband and I! I was a florist and perennial garden designer and it was my passion till I was disabled! I'm old now but this is like watching my early years with my husband and I sharing our passion together. It was our special bonding to work together in our gardens! Oh how I miss it!!! I love your design and plant choices! However I'm more of a hot color, wild gardner, but my husband loves your soft pastels! Thank you for the special knowledge you share but most of all keep gardening together. It's my fondest memories after 40yrs of marriage! It's good to see such young couples sharing hobbies and getting outdoors! You do a beautiful job taping and editing also! Your a great team!

    I do not know how you do all that work and manage to still look so pretty. I use to wear makeup everywhere all the time when I was younger. Now the thoughts of makeup during summer are scary. The joys of menopause in a humid climate.
    Anyway great video! Love the longer ones.

    @patriciarusso1148 9 місяців тому

    I like this flowerbed alot and especially the way you arranged the flowers as they are not in a straight line. I think the lamp post is an excellent idea & location. Also, the clematis against your potting shed growing up a decorative trellis adds a nice touch making all look compelling and must be beautiful in bloom.

  • @melindafisher1584

    I absolutely love your gardens! I have been binge watching your videos, and I wish I could do what you do! I live in a zone 1b area (North Pole, Alaska) so I mainly enjoy annuals. Our midnight sun is great for growing large vegetables and beautiful annuals, but most things aren't perennials. I do have a large lilac that comes back every year, and my rhubarb is invincible. One of these days I will move to an area where I too can have beautiful gardens. Until then I'm enjoying yours and soaking up as much information as I can!

  • @margiemcpeak9304
    @margiemcpeak9304 6 років тому

    This is one of my most favorite areas so far. Your plan to remove the evergreen arbor and plant climbing roses there is so exciting! Hydrangeas are one of my all-time favorites and I've probably "over used" them in my garden; but, I love them so much. I've had both successes AND failures with Heucheras. I'm truly in love with this wonderful perennial, though; so, I WILL be planting this Primo 'Wild Rose' one. This is a really pretty place for those gorgeous 'White Wands' veronica. The light post, clematis and evergreen add sweet touches to this beautiful garden bed! Bravo! I LOVE IT!!! 💜

Personally I'm a lover of evergreens pretty much everywhere cause I just hate when things look so bleak in winter. since watching your videos I've definitely branched out and started getting more flowers. Currently on the hunt for some good shade trees because I have like ZERO shade right now. Suggestions welcome! I live in Oklahoma.

    If you put a wall cap on top of those pavers it would look even better. You can use landscape adhesive caulk tubes to set them in place so they won't move OR you can leave the caps just resting on top. Buy just a sample few of the caps at the store to see how you like it.
