You are so lucky to have each other. I cleaned the gutters, removed a clog in the downspout and now must add gutter guard all by my 74 year old self !! Hard jobs do give more satisfaction. Now I can start my fall clean up with some transplanting . ohhhh the joy! lol You men are an inspiration to me. Love love love the colors of it all. The drifts and flow of it all is to die for. You are artists. oxox
Just beautiful! Spiders are good, they eat the bad pests…so I’ve been told 🤷🏻♀️ Many gardeners won’t even disturb their web. Love your content and how relatable you are, such a pleasure to watch. Thank you 🇨🇦
I just found your channel & am wondering where have you been all my gardening life? Gorgeous gardens, easy to follow instructions with very personable hosts. Time for me to get back to my own gardening but tonight it will be a glass of wine while binge-watching your channel! Thanks for sharing your gardens with us.
love seeing the happy couple. I only share my garden experiences with mom. maybe one day I will find my lucky guy to share the work and love of gardening with.
You guys are the best! I loved watching Eric dig that sand cherry out, garden struggles are real ( so is swearing!😁) ! I have that thumbergia on a 1/2 moon trellis behind a garden statue. I kept the vines trimmed up and yes it’s a bear to remove...but oh so worth it! The yellow blooms framing the statue were so pretty. I need that mini shovel in my life! 🍂🍁🇨🇦
Great that you show the reality of gardening. Not everything can be executed as planed but it all works out in the end. You need a shovel with a decent handle. Save your back!
😂Jeez Louise indeed! I was laughing so hard watching you dig that out. I have a lace elderberry tower that stays very narrow that you might like for that application. So far it seems to be very hardy and very low maintenance. No pruning or anything needed.
First time seeing your video, such a pleasure to watch. Beautiful garden!!! Such varieties of flowers & colours!!! I love how you move things around. Moving plants is a good thing to see a different perspective. Love your mum's, I have many colours too & my favorite is the coral. Busy making Fall containers, using variety of kales & cabbage that will look stunning as the season progresses. Love how your dividing your perennials, big job. Doing the same here in Toronto, Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 zone 5.
@@growformegardening I'll be subscribing to you guys. You are areal joy to watch You work well together & love following authentic people. I would love all that space for gardens!!!! Great job & totally agree with the work in Fall is as much if not more than Spring. Looking forward to seeing you more. Cheers, your new Canadian friend in Toronto, Ontario 🇨🇦😊
Good morning! Enjoying your video with my morning cup of tea. I am in Northern Virginia and I did lots of editing and dividing over the weekend. Happy gardening to you both😊
Good morning. Thank you for keeping it real. Editing the garden can be rewarding especially dividing perennials. Who doesn't love free plants? You complement each other so well.
As Christopher was cutting down the vine I couldn't help but notice the combo of perennials by it, heuchera, sedum, and fountain grass. You just inspired me to purchase those dark foliage plants. You make a great team! Thank you for posting!!!!
I love your videos!!!! I learn so much and I have been gardening for 20+ years! I have pen and pencil in my hand to write down all your recommendations and plants. Where do you get your hosta's? Do you shop locally or have you found a good on-line source?
Oh gosh, we have sourced plants all over the place. Many of our hostas were end of season clearance buys...I've already done some dividing of the big ones. Our trees need to grow faster to keep up with the shade perennials!
So much work!! Gives me motivation to divide and rearrange. Just looks so fresh. I always worry I'm killing things but you guys made it look manageable. Thank you for sharing 🌿❤
Hi guys. Love,love your videos. I see you throwing a handful of something before you replant. What is it? Because of you both ,this year i have payed a lot more attention to my flower beds. Thank you so much
I'm new to your channel and I love watching you guys! Your gardens are beautiful and I love your ideas about planting. I'm amazed by your willingness to fight the deer with so many hydrangeas. I have over 6 acres in RI and I've given up fighting the deer-they completely destroy my hydrangeas despite sprays and various other deterrents. Love your determination!! 😊
Purple leaf Sand Cherry’s are not known for great performance. I dug one up just like you’re doing and they’re stubborn. If they performed as well as those stubborn roots what a plant it would be! In our new place I planted one this spring. It’s leaves fell off mid summer. Think I’m going to pop it out before it gets dug in, I’m too old to fight the root battle.
Good morning ☀️ enjoying your video with morning coffee. Love your garden. I am patiently waiting for mine to grow up and fill in! Favorite ground covers?
Nice video- you guys work so well together! I’ve been dealing with those pesky invasive Japanese beetles too, ugh. Have had to resort to picking them off my zinnias, which helped, but ick. Gardening isn’t always glamorous as you say!😊
I think you guys did an excellent job!!! Do you have any problems with slugs? My salvia was attacked by them! I used slug granules around them but the slugs won!😢
How do you keep the deer from eating on your 100+ hydrangeas? I love your allium planting trick to deter them but your big beautiful long hedges of hydrangeas seem so exposed to deer grazing. You have probably answered this question before but I just recently discovered your channel. You two are so great together ❤
We are very lucky that the deer seem to prefer only a few varieties. They leave the limelights alone. The Quick Fire and the Sublime are the only ones they seem to favor. I’ll be putting chicken wire around them all for winter
Good morning Eric and Christopher ❤ just watched your newest video. It was fantastic both of you are great together love how great you both work together to make such a beautiful statement in your garden 🪴❤️❤️. So question 😂 do you get your perennials from a local nursery or do you order online or both? Thank you boys❤❤❤
Thank you! I think we have perennials from every possible source. We've ordered some....but we are very lucky to have a whole bunch of local nurseries.
@@growformegardening thank you Eric 👏🏻👍🏻😄. Are you willing to share a couple nursery names I would love to check them out if I haven’t already 😂👍🏻. You’re a doll thanks again💖😄
Hi. I have a few questions. I thought salvia was an annual ( the pink potion) or is it just certain kinds ? Second: I planted 2 Patriot hostas on the east side of my house that gets shade. The leaves look burnt BUT my Japanese painted fern, brunnera and coral bells are fine. Is this brown on the hostas actually burnt or could they just be dying ? Thank you for your thoughts 💜💕
There are perennial and annual salvias. Both of the varieties we worked on in this video are perennials. Do you think the Patriots need a little more water? Try googling "hosta leaves browning"...there must be someone who has posted all the different ailments.
I planted 6 patriot hostas and 3 drinking gourd hostas on a shady bank. Their leaves turned brown but they have since rebounded. I think the brown leaves were due to transplant shock which happens sometimes when dividing perennials.

This was so fun to watch! I often start out with 1 task end up up doing 5 others to make it happen! Moving things around can be so satisfying 😊

I hope so too!
I love 💕 how you two work together and include us in your garden activities. It’s so real 🌸🐝🌼💕
Thank you so much!
I am cracking up that Eric moves Christopher's plant placings by like 1". Hee hee!
Always. I'm used to it. haha
Eric..."Sometimes you don't nail it the first time." 😅😅 Me.. "Sometimes I don't nail it the third time!" Your gardens still amaze 😊!
So true! Hahaha

The mini shovel is some cheapo thing I found at Home Depot I think. It’s really helpful for getting into tight spots
@@growformegardening Thanks, I’ll check it out!🇨🇦
Great that you show the reality of gardening. Not everything can be executed as planed but it all works out in the end. You need a shovel with a decent handle. Save your back!
I do love that tiny shovel. It cracks me up, but it isn't really ergonomic.

Sounds great! Thank you for watching
114 hydrangeas! Just dreamy 🥰
And many more to come
@@growformegardening Cannot wait to see what’s next !
Good morning from zone 6a. Coffee with you guys this morning 😊
Morning!
I just love watching and learning from you two! Now I have to go out and "dig around in the yard", as my husband says. 😂
Dig it up!!
Drinking coffee and enjoying my 5b fix! ❤ have a wonderful day. 😊
Good morning!
Good morning. Thank you for keeping it real. Editing the garden can be rewarding especially dividing perennials. Who doesn't love free plants? You complement each other so well.

It’s always fun!!
So beautiful!

That heuchera is Dressed Up Evening Gown....so so so pretty!
You made progress for the upcoming winter. Looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Thanks, you too!
I love videos like this!!
Thank you!
I planted the Generous Gardener Rose 🌹 and don’t know how to prepare it for winter. Would love a video 🌼🐝
We will be working on that soon enough. It’s our first time too.
I love all of the plants, especially the pink potion Veronica and the fall in love sweetly anemone
Those anemone are worth the wait. It takes so long for them to bloom but when they do it is magical

Hi guys.
Love,love your videos. I see you throwing a handful of something before you replant.
What is it?
Because of you both ,this year i have payed a lot more attention to my flower beds.
Thank you so much
Oh that's Espoma's BioTone. We toss a little bit in when we plant to help them settle in.
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!

You guys have beautiful gardens.
Thank you!
You guys are the best! It is such a pleasure to see how you problem solve and strategize to find happy homes for your plants.
Thanks so much!
You guys rock
Thanks!
This was a fun video. You both are a great team together. Your gardens' beautiful. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to seeing future videos.🥰
Thank you so much!
I need to find the time and do the same. Great job guys!
It really didn't take that long once we got going
Good morning ☀️ enjoying your video with morning coffee. Love your garden. I am patiently waiting for mine to grow up and fill in! Favorite ground covers?
We are working on our ground cover game. We have some creeping Veronica that work well, I really like putting a bunch of coral bells together too.
Your garden is so so beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for showing the “wins” and the “losses”! Your garden shows your efforts ❤
We are trying to keep it real!
You guys did awesome work! You have inspired me to change a whole bed. Can’t wait to start moving things around!
Have fun!! The garden will thank you!
Snake smack 🤣!
Sometimes it’s stomping. Sometimes it’s junking up and down. Whatever works
Nice video- you guys work so well together! I’ve been dealing with those pesky invasive Japanese beetles too, ugh. Have had to resort to picking them off my zinnias, which helped, but ick. Gardening isn’t always glamorous as you say!😊
Walking around the garden with a bucket of soapy water is kind of therapeutic. haha
Soapy water? Are you joking or do you pour soapy water on your plants...is this why your garden is so beautiful ❤️
It's a great trick to walk around with a little pail of soapy water...you can flick the japanese beetles and they fall in!
I wonder if these lone monarchs travel alone or do they have a secret signal that allows them to migrate in mass.
Good question. They need to get on the move, we are getting chilly at night!
How do you prevent bugs from coming in to your indoor plant room over the winter when you store them?
To be quite honest, this will be the first time we have brought plants inside. We’re going to keep a very close eye on things.
Oh what the heck! A little bug now and then is part of gardening and life!
🦋 AWESOME 💙
🤗
I think you guys did an excellent job!!!
Do you have any problems with slugs? My salvia was attacked by them! I used slug granules around them but the slugs won!😢
We have very few slugs in our garden. Maybe one or two all year
I have slugs here and used the slug bait. The bait always moulds though, is that ok for hostas? 🇨🇦
😊 love your garden.. me gusta su canal y creatividad
Thank you!
Great video as always! Question, what was the name of the vine you cut away?
Black eyed susan vine...or thunbergia
Nha rất đẹp khung cảnh đẹp quá tuyệt vời cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ chúc bạn nhiều sức khỏe nhiều niềm vui hạnh phúc bình an trong cuộc sống ❤❤❤❤

Doesn’t the Sting get like 15-20 feet tall? Is the front of the border possibly a decision you will regret?
NEvermind, you initially said the front of the border but your placement isn’t really the front.
We did push it back a little bit. It would have looked a little weird up front!

What is the grayish powder u threw in hole before planting? Thx
Espoma Biotone starter fertilizer
Do you cut off the bloom after your hydrangea has died?
If you mean when it goes dormant for winter…yes. You don’t have to but we don’t want snow to weigh the branches down
@@growformegardening thank you for answering questions instead of a generic reply

@@growformegardeningI thought of that but with all the rain and my watering I don’t think so but I could very well be wrong. Thanks for the info
@@brandywalkenten9085 Some plants are just fussy!!!
I’m sure they learned agastache doesn’t like to be transplanted
It exploded with growth this summer and it covered in pollinators!
Perhaps cut some of the foliage off next time. You’ll have more room to get around plant to dig it up. Especially since your not keeping it.
We thought about that but I might use the dead tree for decor!
@@growformegardening really? You must post a pic of that!
The plan is to hang some branches upside down in the windows at work with twinkle lights on them
Wow great idea!
💙👍🏻💙
🌷🌱🌷🌿
Do you have Garden parties…or do you prefer not have your grass trampled on by a large group of people?
We have had garden parties and tours actually. The grass holds up very well.
Lovely garden and the Anenome 🩷 I'll be adding those to my garden.
I hope you do!
Just ordered it too!
