This was a joy to watch. We forget at this time of the year how colourful our gardens were and will be again. I am going to watch this video again as it was so good.
Working with a partner who has the same interests really helps with making a beautiful garden. It wonder if you ever counted how many different types of plants bloomed in your garden in 2023. Must have been hundreds. Thanks for sharing.
We actually did count once back in July: ua-cam.com/video/44igDuPiT5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=VFzszVaceMboMx2H - we had over 100 different flowering plants at that time. 😜 And yes! Being 2 of us in the garden helps a lot. (3 when our son joins… altho he’s not as crazy about it just yet 😅)
Its gorgeous and it will be gorgeous again. I cant wait to see what you do in 2024. I have a dear friend who lives in santa fe and she always does a beautiful garden every year. I remember someone asked her if she felt devastatedwhen winter and snow destroyed everything. I was so impressed with her response she said that god enjoyed it for the year and he brought the beauty of winter and snow to erase it so she could paint someone else for him.❤❤❤❤ cant wait to see you both again. 😊
That is a beautiful way to think about it! Wow ❤️ It also gives us a chance to miss it - rejuvenate our energy in a way and really appreciate what we’re blessed with. Thanks for sharing, Juan! ❤️❤️
Just a stunning reminder of how incredible this garden was in 2023 and it will be again this year. So much going on and thriving. Guys I hope you're proud because you really should be. That small garden [as you 2 always put it] is nothing short of a show piece. ❤🎉
Hey you! ❤️ We made this look back because of your encouragement actually! So thank YOU for making our first season on UA-cam so great. Really. And… because of feedback like yours, we are quite proud of what we’re growing here. Hope you’re having a great 2024 so far!
love your garden, people always told me i had too many plants and my garden im the past have been a lot like yours. it was easy to maintain once a week i would go through and weed and in an hour i was done. lost all my pictures when my computer went. there still in my mine. and at 78 that [retty good. now we just moved into a new place and will start over. thanks for more inspiration.
People think we have too many too… but we love it. There’s always something to enjoy and planting so closely keeps the weeds down. ❤️ Wishing you so much joy as you start over in your new place! Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
You do such a beautiful job of having a stunning show of flowers and foliage in every season. We are just recovering from a long stretch of -35 C in Alberta Canada so thank you so much for sharing. The beauty feeds my soul and provides inspiration for next year. Looking forward to seeing another year in your garden.
-35! My goodness. We're fortunate that it doesn't get that cold here. Altho we are having colder winters than normal (even for here) this year. But... just gives us more time to daydream about the coming spring 😅
What a lovely thing to do. Your garden is so beautiful and a tribute to all your hard work. It's easy to forget, on these cold winter days, just how stunning our gardens are. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing the progression of your beautiful garden over the past year. We've had so much enjoyment watching it develop with you. Looking forward to this year! 😊
I so agree with someone else’s comment re the most beautiful borders and garden I have ever seen on all such garden videos that I have ever seen on y/t. Congratulations! What I like most too is the fact that it is not horribly formal and is really reasonably wild. My large garden in Central Scotland is very wild. I have had to put in a lot of shrubs such as Rhodies and Azalias as it is extremely boggy and acid. Happily I have a couple of areas where I try to emulate something similar to your own but not nearly so successfully but you have encouraged me to try harder in 2024. I do so wish my hubby knew a flower from a weed but happily sits on his mower and keeps the grassy hillsides in order. But I shall definitely watch your video again with great pleasure. Thank you.
The comment about your husband made us laugh But super good that he takes care of all the mowing for you. AND... thanks for the lovely comments! We try to not have anything too formal (we do like the natural look a lot better)... and Lars has more 'formal' style of flower beds at the cemetery where he works as a gardener. So he gets enough of that at work :)
What a magnificent achievement of your gardens from a lawn previously! It’s a testament of what can be achieved by gathering seeds, and letting your gardens flourish! New subbie, from a town near Niagara Falls Canada. I recognize a lot of your perennials as we grow the same plants here (zone 5). Love the cottage garden feeling as you pan around your yard. Thank you for sharing! Gilly
Thank you for joining our channel, Gilly! And WOW... Niagara Falls must be so pretty. I hope you guys are having a bit more sunshine than we are here these weeks. BUT... at least we don't need to water as much :)
Tusind tak (a thousand thanks in Danish) for your comment :) We often worry that our garden is just too small to share... but we are quite proud of it and it brings us a lot of joy, so we share it anyway. Thanks for your kind comment. Greetings from Denmark to you!
Thank you for the motivation to get up and start some seeds on this chilly morning in Texas. I love knowing how many of your flowers you have propagated yourself. Best wishes for another brilliant gardening season.
I’m in Aw of your garden. After we had a snow storm came through yesterday in New England, I am looking forward to spring and summer so I came across your garden on UA-cam. You have mixtures of all kinds of flowers together and they’re so compact and beautiful. You gave me inspiration to start mine this year. Thank you for sharing 💐👏
Thank you for being here with us ❤. Hope your garden is safe from the snow storm there… spring will be here before we all know it! And yes, you’re right… we plant extremely close together - we have a small space and we pack it as full as we can :) Greetings from Denmark!
Do you sit down and draw up a garden plan for flower placement. I love what I call the wild flower factor of your garden (not the traditional wild flower) This is the design that I prefer. I change out my garden spaces every year by expanding or creating new beds because our land is so large and open and my plan is to build an oasis of coziness on a frugal budget. Your videos are so inspirational to watch along with the humor.
We don't draw plans in that way... we do plant according to height (Digitalis in the back, for example)...but otherwise we plant what we like as close to each other as possible. We're really going for a cottage garden style. And we have a small space... so we prefer to have it packed with as much color and texture as we can. Your space sounds wonderful! We'd love a large garden area to work with... we might have to change how we plant if we did that. Maybe the 'freedom' of our garden now wouldn't translate on a bigger scale. But we don't have that problem in our current house :) Big hello from Denmark to you!
🇺🇦Вітання з України! Ваш сад чудовий! Які гарні квіти! Усе доглянуто з любов’ю! Видно, що люди закохані у свій сад! Як і я! Хоча в моїй країні зараз війна, але ми продовжуємо вирощувати рослини! Бажаю тобі миру і запрошую до мене на Ютуб канал!❤❤❤
I think the issue here is that it's a beautiful garden for 6 months of the year. You haven't shown us the other 6 months. If you grow a lot more grasses, and a lot more perennials with seed heads that can stay all summer like achillea, eupatorium, some monardas, eryngium etc... then you'd still have structure and gorgeous golden colors throughout autumn and winter. I'm trying to have that in our community garden, but it's tough to explain to people that yes there are ornamental grasses that shouldn't be weeded out. The cloud of sporobolus heterolepis flowers was gorgeous this winter for example, you can see why it's a favorite of Piet Oudolf. We grew them from seed (Jelitto has an amazing selection) it was super easy.
We just started on UA-cam in June - ergo what you see in the video. You’ll find other months in our recent winter videos that we’re filming. Good luck with your community garden. If you’re looking for great garden videos, check out Garden Answer - she’s great ❤️
We’re located in Denmark… on the east coast of Jutland, in a town called Fredericia. We don’t use USDA zones here, but you could compare us to zone 8a. For voice and plant names, you can check out our tours from last season - that’s where this footage came from ☺️ - and we talk a lot in those + always include plant names. We also discuss the soil throughout the season in each video ☺️. Hope that helps. Greetings from Denmark.
❤Just cant get enough of your fantastic garden! I followed your example and have started some winter sowing trays! I hope they turn out as well as yours in the video,. You both have such indurance and good sense of color combinations and forms !Just can't get enough of this video! Especially this time of year,brrr!
This time of year is perfect for looking back (and daydreaming about better weather!). How exciting with your winter sowing! I hope they all come up and thrive this season 💚
Thanks for a great video.Hope everyone is doing well.Can't wait for spring,hope to see another video soon.Happy 2024 from cold Ohio,USA.Sooooo beautiful gardens
Lovely video - thank you! I bet you really enjoyed putting that video together in these dark, winter months. It's reminded me that I want my husband to sow me some Salvia Viridis (I think that's what it's called), better get seed buying! Looking forward to joining you in your gorgeous garden this year!
We sure did! Looking back at what will come again is a big help during the rainy days of winter. And yes! It was Salvia viridis for sure... Pink Sunday variety is our favorite and looked gorgeous for months and months 💚
@@perennial-garden Thanks for your reply. I have just looked at getting some seeds and it says to sow where you want them to grow. Wondering if that's what you did as direct sowing doesn't seem to work in my garden!
What a break from the snow outside today. Made my day. I do think if the months had been reverse it would have been a delightful end. Of course I am trying to escape winter though.
This was our first year on UA-cam... so we didn't really film anything before June. This year (2024) we're starting to film from January... so we can make a better review for next year :) Really showing how things come up and change the landscape :)
Gorgeous! If only I didn't have a deer problem. Every year I try. I try with things that are apparently deer resistant, they eat it all anyway. I can never win and have something like this where I live. And I can't fence in my yard.
I bet deer can be a major problem! We're lucky that we don't have that problem -- altho deer are a nuisance here -- just not in our garden as we're blocked by houses all around.
Long time no see! I hurt my back and I haven’t been on UA-cam very much. I just wanted to say, can’t wait to see the garden this spring. Hope yall are doing well.
Helllooooooooo! ❤️❤️ How are you?! How’s the terrible cold y’all are having there? And how’s your back?! My goodness - so sorry to hear that. Super happy that you wrote 🥰 Huge hello from us!
@@perennial-garden well it’s warmed up a bit, was 60F here yesterday BUT now it’s the torrential rains all over the SE. we’ve been stuck in the house so long that yesterday we went outside to pull the winter weeds lol Then my son pointed out that the crocus were everywhere. I guess the snow triggered them to come up. Not sure if you remember but he knows it’s gardening time when he sees the crocus sprout. The moment one sprouts and he finds it, he comes running and yelling, “it’s time to garden.” Lol So it was lovely. My back is healing but it’s been an ongoing struggle. I have faith it’ll get better. How are y’all doing? I hope well. I have missed our gardening chats.
@@dia9491 I do remember him and the crocus! And it's true... it does mean that this winer will finally end. Even the days are getting an extra few minutes of light now... and it makes a huge difference. Super great with faith! You will get better. Just like the crocus... a new day will come :) We're doing well, thanks :) School is schooling and work is working... we're looking forward to more sunshine soon and.... big news... we think we have to get rid of the trampoline finally. The winter storms just didn't help it all this year. So... we finally get the tree we wanted! haha.
@@perennial-garden omg can’t wait to see the tree!!!! Tatertot said he’d give your trampoline a good home lol. Had to explain a trampoline is too big to fly with 🤣 I got him one of those exercise trampolines and he loves that thing.
An exercise trampoline is the perfect size! This one, bless it... is near about busted. Now to just figure out what kind of tree we want. hmmmmmmmmm @@dia9491
What a feast for eyes! Love the colourful blooms in your garden! You have blooms all year round in the garden! What is the beautiful pink plant @9:08? Do you change the position of them every year to prevent pest build up?
That’s Salvia viridis ( ua-cam.com/video/_DTuGYtgZ28/v-deo.htmlsi=PB_idFmci9DfgY2K ) and it’s one of our favorites! We have it in the pink (Pink Sunday) and Oxford Blue, too. As for moving things around - we don’t move too much - only divide when the perennials get too big - and we move around some if the heights don’t work out like we planned.
absolutely what I want my wildflower garden to look like.. I have one question that no one has been able to answer for me. What do you have as a border near your wooden fence. I don't want to have soil right up against mine and have not been able to find a solution. Thanks so much for all the inspiration.
Thanks so much! And great question! We have soil right next to ours 😅. The boards almost touch the soil at the bottom. We keep a very tiny “path” between the fence and flowers that we can rake clean (weeds) and walk down to reach the rest of the garden. Our neighbors behind the fence are also higher elevated than ours… we actually had to build a brick “wall” on that side of the fence to keep their land from sliding into ours. We’re higher than our other neighbor… and on down it goes down the street. I hope this made sense! If not… let me know and I’ll try to video it and share with you 🤓
Thanks so much, I was also thinking of using large stones as you have in the front of your borders, I just want to keep the fence in as good of a shape as it is very new as of last year. So many ideas, can't wait to see what you do for the upcoming growing season.@@perennial-garden
@@marthaschermann5562 Those large stones are a great idea! And in fact, we had those to start with... sort of half buried to make a little path under the fence. We moved them because of the snails! They were living under the stones... massive numbers of those little devils. So we moved the stones completely from that area. The snails do not live in our path... I think they were coming in from the neighbor's garden, spending the dry days under the fence stones and then eating our garden. Since we moved the stones from over there, we've had only 'normal' problems with snails 😅 Nothing like the issues we used to have. All of that to say... the stones looked great tho!
We have a bunch :) Last July (2023) we made a little competition trying to see how many different ones we had ( ua-cam.com/video/44igDuPiT5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=W-lqsCeID5sKCKl8 ) We try to plant so we have flowers all season long... bulbs and things come early, then lupines, etc in June... then ending with Dahlias, etc in late summer/autumn.
What is the plant which leaves are going green into red at 4:06 please? I thought maybe Crocosmia? 🤔🤓 App says Cogongrass 'Red Baron' which I’ve never heard of but looks beautiful.
Does your Blanketflower come back every year? Blanketflower is native to my area and the cultivar varieties never seem to come back but the Original wild ones do.
Prettiest garden I have seen in 5 yrs of watching gardening videos on YT. Outstanding in every way!
That's the best comment ever! Thank you so much for writing :) You've made our morning here. HUGE hello from us in Denmark!
This was a joy to watch. We forget at this time of the year how colourful our gardens were and will be again. I am going to watch this video again as it was so good.
We DO forget! That's why little reviews like this are so good for us, too. Thank you for always being so kind to us and supporting!
Thank you so much for sharing! This is definitely the goals I have for my flower beds-jam packed with ALL the things! Love your garden!
Thank you for watching! We plant super close together to really fill up our small space 😊
Working with a partner who has the same interests really helps with making a beautiful garden. It wonder if you ever counted how many different types of plants bloomed in your garden in 2023. Must have been hundreds. Thanks for sharing.

Couldn’t agree more. Sadly I don’t have anyone in the family that likes to garden

Everyone needs to keep going just as you are! Too many plants? They dont know what they're missing.
So true! AND… beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Watching for a third time. There is no doubt that soft light makes a garden show at its best. Dreamy!
I replied from the Danish channel - sorry 😅
You do such a beautiful job of having a stunning show of flowers and foliage in every season. We are just recovering from a long stretch of -35 C in Alberta Canada so thank you so much for sharing.

This was our first year on UA-cam... so we didn't really film anything before June. This year (2024) we're starting to film from January... so we can make a better review for next year :) Really showing how things come up and change the landscape :)
I' ve just joined your community here ! I am absolutely astonished with the beauty of your garden!!! Thank you very much for sharing with us.
A bigger thank YOU for joining us 💜🌱
Piękny ogród, lubię różnorodność kwiatów ❤
Thank you so much! And a big hello from Denmark :)
Gorgeous! If only I didn't have a deer problem. Every year I try. I try with things that are apparently deer resistant, they eat it all anyway. I can never win and have something like this where I live. And I can't fence in my yard.
I bet deer can be a major problem! We're lucky that we don't have that problem -- altho deer are a nuisance here -- just not in our garden as we're blocked by houses all around.
Pozdrawiam z Warszawy.
Big hello from Fredericia :)
👍 😍 🎉 👏
Thanks for watching ❤️
Visi mėnesiai jūsų sode nuostabūs! Viskas taip gražiai suderinta, tiesiog niekada nesibaigiantis žydėjimas🤗👍
That's what we try to do.. make sure we have never ending blooms! Thanks so much for watching :)
Long time no see! I hurt my back and I haven’t been on UA-cam very much. I just wanted to say, can’t wait to see the garden this spring. Hope yall are doing well.
Helllooooooooo! ❤️❤️ How are you?! How’s the terrible cold y’all are having there? And how’s your back?! My goodness - so sorry to hear that. Super happy that you wrote 🥰 Huge hello from us!
@@perennial-garden well it’s warmed up a bit, was 60F here yesterday BUT now it’s the torrential rains all over the SE. we’ve been stuck in the house so long that yesterday we went outside to pull the winter weeds lol Then my son pointed out that the crocus were everywhere. I guess the snow triggered them to come up. Not sure if you remember but he knows it’s gardening time when he sees the crocus sprout. The moment one sprouts and he finds it, he comes running and yelling, “it’s time to garden.” Lol So it was lovely.
My back is healing but it’s been an ongoing struggle. I have faith it’ll get better.
How are y’all doing? I hope well. I have missed our gardening chats.
@@dia9491 I do remember him and the crocus! And it's true... it does mean that this winer will finally end. Even the days are getting an extra few minutes of light now... and it makes a huge difference.
Super great with faith! You will get better. Just like the crocus... a new day will come :)
We're doing well, thanks :) School is schooling and work is working... we're looking forward to more sunshine soon and.... big news... we think we have to get rid of the trampoline finally. The winter storms just didn't help it all this year. So... we finally get the tree we wanted! haha.
@@perennial-garden omg can’t wait to see the tree!!!! Tatertot said he’d give your trampoline a good home lol. Had to explain a trampoline is too big to fly with 🤣 I got him one of those exercise trampolines and he loves that thing.
An exercise trampoline is the perfect size! This one, bless it... is near about busted. Now to just figure out what kind of tree we want. hmmmmmmmmm @@dia9491
Your garden is beautiful! 🌸
Thank you, Laurie! We've just subscribed to your channel, too! What a gorgeous space you're blessed with in Oregon, too! Greetings from Denmark

Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
What a feast for eyes! Love the colourful blooms in your garden! You have blooms all year round in the garden! What is the beautiful pink plant @9:08? Do you change the position of them every year to prevent pest build up?
That’s Salvia viridis ( ua-cam.com/video/_DTuGYtgZ28/v-deo.htmlsi=PB_idFmci9DfgY2K ) and it’s one of our favorites! We have it in the pink (Pink Sunday) and Oxford Blue, too.
As for moving things around - we don’t move too much - only divide when the perennials get too big - and we move around some if the heights don’t work out like we planned.
🙌🏻
Greetings from Denmark! Thanks so much for watching :)
OMG that plant at 7.58. Is it a salvia or perhaps a Veronica? Glorious colour. Love the variety and I see some of mine in there.
You're right! It's a VERONICA LONGIFOLIA... super pretty!
I'll have to get that, the colour is amazing.
Meu Deus misericórdia quanta beleza muito lindo joinha
Obrigado! Saudações da Dinamarca! (I hope I got that right... I used Google to help me :) ) Thank you so much for watching and for commenting.
absolutely what I want my wildflower garden to look like.. I have one question that no one has been able to answer for me. What do you have as a border near your wooden fence. I don't want to have soil right up against mine and have not been able to find a solution. Thanks so much for all the inspiration.
Thanks so much! And great question! We have soil right next to ours 😅. The boards almost touch the soil at the bottom. We keep a very tiny “path” between the fence and flowers that we can rake clean (weeds) and walk down to reach the rest of the garden.
Our neighbors behind the fence are also higher elevated than ours… we actually had to build a brick “wall” on that side of the fence to keep their land from sliding into ours. We’re higher than our other neighbor… and on down it goes down the street.
I hope this made sense! If not… let me know and I’ll try to video it and share with you 🤓
Thanks so much, I was also thinking of using large stones as you have in the front of your borders, I just want to keep the fence in as good of a shape as it is very new as of last year. So many ideas, can't wait to see what you do for the upcoming growing season.@@perennial-garden
@@marthaschermann5562 Those large stones are a great idea! And in fact, we had those to start with... sort of half buried to make a little path under the fence. We moved them because of the snails! They were living under the stones... massive numbers of those little devils. So we moved the stones completely from that area. The snails do not live in our path... I think they were coming in from the neighbor's garden, spending the dry days under the fence stones and then eating our garden.
Since we moved the stones from over there, we've had only 'normal' problems with snails 😅 Nothing like the issues we used to have.
All of that to say... the stones looked great tho!
I wish we could see a list of all the plants you have!!
We have a bunch :) Last July (2023) we made a little competition trying to see how many different ones we had ( ua-cam.com/video/44igDuPiT5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=W-lqsCeID5sKCKl8 )
We try to plant so we have flowers all season long... bulbs and things come early, then lupines, etc in June... then ending with Dahlias, etc in late summer/autumn.
Beautiful garden, lovely borders! Just curious, do you use it as a cutting garden too?
Thank you so much for commenting! We cut flowers but only for ourselves... so, I'm not sure if that qualifies as a cut garden or not :)
Hello❤❤
Hello from Denmark 😊
What is the plant which leaves are going green into red at 4:06 please? I thought maybe Crocosmia? 🤔🤓 App says Cogongrass 'Red Baron' which I’ve never heard of but looks beautiful.
I think it’s the Imperata cylindrica 'Red Baron' (Japanese Blood Grass) - we love it 🥰
Does your Blanketflower come back every year? Blanketflower is native to my area and the cultivar varieties never seem to come back but the Original wild ones do.
They should be perennial here, but they are really a hit or miss on coming back every year. We sow new ones just in case they don't.
Якщо можна, то запозичу в тебе деякі ідеї для мого саду в Україні! Дякую тобі!😊
You are so very very welcome!
What’s the name of the plant 21:30 looks like lily. Thank you 😊
That's a Toad Lilly (Tricyrtis hirta). Super cute, right?! It's Allen's favorite
