Front Yard Garden Daily Rounds

  • Every day the front yard garden is a new garden, different from the garden it was just the day before. Each day I make my morning rounds and tackle the tasks and chores for its current state: picking the new weeds, deadheading, noting what has become too crowded. Such a joy! #frontyard #landscaping #gardenchores

    The fact that Stewart is not a gardener and asks so many questions and sees things differently makes you explain to and teach us all so much more thoroughly! And his delight in the learning and discovery mirrors ours! Don't change that dynamic!

    There should be a gardening book titled “While I’m down here” a true gardener knows that you see a weed and lean over to pull it and while you are down there you see something that needs to be dead headed and next thing you know it is an hour later and you have a pile of things you did while you were down there 😀

    I think moving the butterfly bushes will create more balance. It will also allow the planter to be seen a bit better - I like its architecture in the garden. Just like you, I enjoy checking on my garden each day, and if I ever forget to bring my pruners or basket along, I regret it. It's amazing how fast it transforms from one day to another.

    The only thing I think I am missing from your last home is how your garden had beautiful hidden places in the backyard, I used to love that so much. That effect in your garden is what used to give it a very interesting unique look.
    I hate to say it but I feel this one has a very traditional garden look, i can see all your plants from any angle from the street
    Hope the backyard garden could have a more walking hidden places and more interesting landscaping

      Is was magical wasn't it ?! It held such a quiet nuance , it hummed with sophistication yet whispered of whimsy and enchantment 😌 I think it was the energy she put into it, the hours spent in quiet contemplation with God that gave it that "hidden" feel . I am most certain the back garden will indeed be as such here . I think she designs the fronts of homes for pleasure to the on lookers , like we all do ... But that sacred , magical hideaway is tucked away from prying eyes and that is why she wants to do it slowly, enjoy herself , feel the space before it unfolds ... I can already feel it starting to humm and whisper , in the last video she did back there ... As excited as I am for her to get back there and start , I so eagerly anticipate ...this fall when she starts , getting to watch it with pumpkin spice cappuccino, a fuzzy blanket , all the smells of Fall 🍁🍂☕🪵 it is going to be so much fun !!!

I'm beginning to believe that our weather here in my Southern CA area (near the beach) is going to be warmer than it has been for years, so it's perfect timing. I'm always open to relocating for the sake of the plants, and thankfully have areas all around the house to move things if it would be better for them.

    It's starting to look like you moved in and you took your green thumb and touched the earth an there was an explosion of beautiful plants that popped out of the ground. it's hard to believe that this is your first season there.😊

    Like the idea to move white butterfly candy to that side corner after the annual there expires.

    I’ve used purple ball basil a lot this year in my landscape and I love it planted en mass. It’s habit is not as tight as the boxwood basil, but it’s wonderful in its own right.

    haha I do the same thing first thing in the morning while still in my robe and examine the small beds and pots to see what needs deadheading and my goodness it occurs to me that my asters need to be cut in half at least!!!! Love the spider flower (name escapes me)
    Cheers.
