    You garden just like I used to, when I had my house and big perennial beds. And like you, I am a visual person and had to place the plants and stand back. This brings me back! And we don’t mind the background noise. Your hubby is working hard on the patio area :) the results will be spectacular.

    I’m always so envious of other gardeners (like sweet Laura of Garden Answer) when they start digging to plant and it goes sooo easy in that soft dirt. Glad to see it’s not just me that sometimes has a fight on my hands with this southern dirt and tree roots! I’m so happy for you and Jerry on all the progress with the hardscape in the patio area. It will be a glorious venue for evening quiet time. I really enjoyed this piddling video. We piddle here in Georgia too!

    LOVE this video! Your revitalized bed will be amazing. Lots of work but worth it. Your patio looks amazing! Kudos to Jerry and his hard work on that. And I have to say, Jackson learned more in helping you put the arbor together than any of his classmates learned this weekend, or that's my guess. Keep up the good parenting Jenny! Those skills will carry him through life. I only wish my knees worked as well as yours do. Watching you jump on a shovel brings back memories. Useful tip (?) I use a serrated (bread) knife when dividing plants, especially caladiums. Works like a charm. Thanks again Jenny, for allowing us to watch the process. ❤

    Just planted hostas last year for the first time. I was surprised how much bigger they were when they popped up this spring. I can only have them in the backyard behind the fence as deer would devour them out front where they could get to them.
    Thanks for all your tips.

    Jenny's sweet voice as she describes slugs' intestines erupting after eating the bait...and then they die. 😂🤣
    I transplanted a rhubarb today. I didn't know about the massive roots, they were as big as carrots. Made it easy to distinguish the weeds firmly embedded among the twisted rhubarb roots.
    I put lots of compost in the hole and Bio-tone, of course. I'm already thinking of recipes. I caught a whiff when I broke off a stem.
    There's something satisfying about pulling weeds...while they're small.
    I love your DITL videos.

    Jenny, your patio is looking amazing! I can just see the urns spilling over with beautiful plantings! The bed looks so nice now that you’ve got it spruced up - too bad the area isn’t sunny enough for a Sunshine Ligustrum too! And those hostas were HUGE! But your hair does the same thing mine does when I get outside! Lol PS the Lady Gardener x 2 are coming to my house in a few weeks for my new patio Rose garden trellis too! Loved the video!!
