- This is a video of my front yard showing you 30 things that I’ve learned mostly about different plants in the last 30 years. I hope this is helpful for both beginners and people who Garden for a long time. #garden #Gardening #GardenTour
The sweet potato vines on those stumps will be so pretty
I agree! Excited to see it! Thanks for watching!!
Love the rock lined flower beds. I especially like anything with curved , meandering borders. The two pots on the porch are stunning, with your combination of plants, textures and colors! Love the round obelisk on top. I do have two of them, and love styling them. Being here in California, my geraniums stay in the ground all year, and grow up to 7 feet high! I have to whack them back at least 3 times a year, and just break off pieces and stick them in any dirt and they propagate easily. I have never tried hostas, but yours are really inspiring me.
I can’t believe you get to leave your geraniums out year around! You’re lucky! You will be so happy you tried hostas! Thanks for watching! Deanna
I live in Illinois too. I take my seed geraniums out of the pots in the fall and get the dirt off the roots the put upside down in a paper bag and staple it shut. Then I put them in the basement for the winter. They are flowing and doing great. Love your garden.
Autumn Clematis can become a true nightmare. I’m in the Piedmont region of NC. In my yard there’s a clematis sprout probably every 12” inches in every direction you look. It’s also growing in my pasture. It was definitely beautiful when I was growing it but it’s not worth the trouble it’s causing, at least in my area.
Your big pots are gorgeous!!!
You may be right about the clematis. Yes, I love those pots so much! I appreciate your being here!
Hi Deanna 👋 Beautiful 😍 Thank you for sharing this with us 😊
You have a beautiful property. Lots to love about it but I especially liked the coleus corner. 😊
Thank you Carolyn! I love that area too! Can you believe that cost me nothing this year because I overwinter all of them in my basement!? Thanks a lot for watching!
Im visiting from Moxie Garens! Very nice video. 😊
Awesome! Thanks for letting me know! Isn’t Mike so creative!? Thanks for watching!
Beautiful! Your yard is such a tranquil retreat! Thank you for taking the time to explain what is happening with various plants. I'm pretty new to landscaping the past two years and it was very helpful to hear all you had to share!
@@HoneysBFF oh awesome! I’m getting ready to do one for the back yard
Love the forget me nots
Sweet aren’t they! Thanks for watching Chris!

I love Caramel Heuchera. Mine have made it through about 5 Chicago winters and I even divide them.
I just bought some more! Good to know! Thanks so much for watching!🌼🌺🌸
So beautiful 🤩❤️🤩❤️. I live in the desert 😢
Hi Deanna! 💕🪴 Your gardens are glorious. The rocks really added beauty too! I love your arrangements on the porch with the coleus. My coral bells always come back. I have a Carmel too. Love your forget me nots. Thanks for the beautiful videos. And all that you teach us! 🫶🌺🪴🌸🌼🪴
Doreen welcome back! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos! Definitely getting more caramel coral bells! Thanks again for watching! Deanna

@@beatricepark1620great I’ll check it out!
I repurposed some thicker plastic planter pots. I cut the bottoms out of it and I put then in the ground, filled it with garden soil, compost and fertilizer seeds I than the lime light sedum in it, so it keeps it under control and it pops in my garden bed because it is elevated.
@@skyangelthefan that’s a good idea! Thanks for watching!
I am definitely not in your zone (zone 10a here), but I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful plants and flowers in your garden… just spectacular!
@@SaltwaterMom3 I’m so glad you enjoyed my garden!! Thank you so much for watching!
I hear you! I’m in zone 9b and just drool over her Hostas!
All the colors and rocks are lovely!! ❤
Thank you so much! Thank you for watching!
I'm in zone 6B Holland Michigan and I have that sweet autumn Clematis growing on one area of my fence and I keep pulling it. It's popped up in about six places in my garden this year. As has a wisteria that I had pulled out and dug out, and you actually have to dig to China to get it out, about 6- 7 years ago. And there it is popping up in certain places. I don't know what's going on with your phlox other than check the bottom of the stems to see if they've been nicked, or maybe there is some sort of infestation or crown rot. I've been gardening since 1985 and sometimes I have issues with phlox as well That's why I don't grow it very often. I have some now that I'm trialling so we shall see what happens... And yes that Helen von Stein Lamb's ear is incredible and I have several of those.
Yes I may end up regretting the clematis,but I really didn’t know what I was getting into. Haha. Yes I need to look closer at the phlox! Thanks for watching!
Great video and such a good idea to give all your tips and lessons learned, wish there were more content creators that do that rather than just stroll around showing what they have. Thank you so much!

Thank you Brenda! Trying to do things that I think are helpful and informative ☺️. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Cannas are gorgeous in a larger grouping. They look so lush. You can buy them in flower colors of yellow, white, and salmon. They multiply and can handle very high heat 118°.
Yeah I’m still debating! I love them in some applications, but not sure about my garden yet. Thanks so much for watching!!
Gorgeous garden❤ so so pretty! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thank you! Glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much my dear friend for another great video and another great garden tour. Oh my gosh your garden is just so fabulous. I couldn’t believe it. I love love love this video. I am joining your channel and I am going to be just joined your channel. I am 475 now. I am so impressed with your video and your beautiful garden. Can’t wait to go back and watch more of your videos beautifully put together.
Hi sandy! I’m so glad you like this video! Thanks for your support!
I just started gardening and I live in Illinois, so I am very grateful that I came across your channel. I will be binge watching. In 2 weeks that I started gardening, I learned about choosing plants that squirrels do not like to eat and spraying your plants with scents that they do not like.
@@skyangelthefan I’m glad my channel is helpful! Thanks for watching!
Your cannas are nice but with your furniture I think Bobo hydrangeas would be fabulous
That’s actually a good idea! I wonder if they would get enough sun? Thanks so much for watching! Deanna
Nice video , Tks
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing all your experience with us. I loved this video, very interesting and informative. The Cannas will spread by clump next year, you will not need to get more.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the info and for watching!
I just discovered your channel and subscribed! I’m loving it! I have a flower garden that I love, but I’m always out there weeding, even with mulch. I can’t imagine taking care of all you do! Just gorgeous.
Very nice!
Than you! Glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for telling about the tree and the yellowing. My hydrangeas started turning yellow.
@@annettefranklin7403 yes hydrangeas do this too! Thanks for watching!
Thank you ❤ I subscribed !
Thank you for watching!!
Here via Janey! Love your garden❤❤
Thank you Deb! I’m so glad you’re here and I’m glad you love my garden! Thanks for watching!
Clearly, so much work has gone into your garden and I love it. At 07:35, your basket plant looks like a calibrachoa or million bells. Am I correct? They like to dry out some between watering, not drought dry but enough that their roots get a break from being wet. Is that what you’re doing?
Thanks for sharing 😊
Ps: I have not had luck with any clematis I’ve ever tried to grow so I’m actually jealous of your invasive monster 😅
Thank you so much! Those are calibrachoa. That’s true I know they like less water than petunias. I just water them every morning and they seem to be doing pretty good😊. You know I’ve heard lots of people say they have trouble with clematis. I have 18! Must be my dirt? Thanks a lot for watching!
My daughters has 2 orange Cannas that we can’t believe they come back every year. We’re thinking it’s because they are planted near the foundation of the house on each side of the front door. We think it’s getting just enough heat thru out the winter to keep thriving. They are gorgeous!!
That’s so neat!! I think I’m going to take the cannas out and put them in pots. I am going to do hydrangeas there instead. Video of that coming soon! I’m excited!
I want a cascading hydrangea. Hydrangeas usually fry in 9B. I'm not a Canna fan either. Your wheelbarrow is adorable!!
Yes two years ago I got my first hydrangeas. They do pretty good here. Yeah thinking going to put little quick fires where the cannas are! Thanks my friend had that wheelbarrow on the curb!!! Thanks for watching!
Stunning garden Deanna! It seems you have put a lot of thought and love into it.
Awww thank you Emily! Thirty years worth of learning and thought! ❤️🌼🌺🌸
Love the garden tour, you should be proud driving up and looking at the gorgeousness everyday! Love everything about it! But I do love the color red in my garden, looks so pretty mixed with other colors I think. Lol I have a sweet Autom clematis and love the sweet smell, and so far I haven’t had any trouble with it fingers crossed 🤞 I have probably 10 different clematis’s some even growing in pots, and have no trouble with them except one year one got clematis wilt. I cut it back down to the ground and it grew back fresh and has been fine since. Looking forward to seeing your back garden tour. I’m sure it’s as beautiful as the front it.
PS Was that you I seen in the front door glass?
I’m so glad you like the garden! I have 18 different clematis! Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful garden! I have been hearing how you can overwinter geraniums indoors in the winter, and I am going to try it this year!
@@juliejefferson8197 yes! I have tried the method of taking all the dirt off and putting them upside down in a box in the basement and it hasn’t worked well for me. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful garden. I am also in central Illinois . Mattoon.
I used to work there! You know the Clark’s? Thanks for watching!
Oh my gosh that happens to my coral bells and I never knew why I thought it was just something I did wrong. Thank you, thank you thank you
Awww glad I could help you!! Thank you for watching!!
My phlox do that sometimes, I just cut those brown ones out and I cut back the ones that are about bloomed out and they rebloom all the way until fall.
I usually cut the brown ones out. I just wish I knew a way to get them to not do that at all. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful Garden! Oh those Hostas!!!! I would love to someday grow Hostas 💚
New subscriber here! 🌻🌻🌻
@@dianesgardeninspiration thank you Diane! I’m glad you enjoyed the garden!🪴. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
i was going to say you should put pots on the tree stumps
@@haleighginder5134 like mother like daughter!😘
I have brought flowers that I thought were perennials but are not. Firecracker plants in particular. How do I winterize them
Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience with that plant. The best I can suggest is getting a grow light for it and try to see if you can keep it going through the winter. Thanks for watching though!
I have a lot of tall phlox and mostly they are trouble free and beautiful ...so don't know if neem oil could help stop your problem . I had 1 bunch get some mildew after we had more humidity and need oil helped, and I thinned them out every couple years by dividing clumps .
Yeah I don’t know. Really wish I knew why it was happening! Thanks for watching!
Yours is the bestgarden I've seen on You Tube. How do you get rid the weeds? Where do you get the buy the border rocks.
@@mkit9235 wow! I told my husband if my garden is the best, you must not watch much UA-cam haha!🤣. I put down preen in the spring. Mulch every year. I also just pull a few weeds every time I’m out there! I get the rocks from a local place that calls itself a landscaping supply store. Thanks sincerely for the compliment, though! Made my day! Thanks for watching! Deanna
You are welcome!
Not an angel wing begonia. It's a tuberous begonia
11:02
Thank you for the info. Someone else said it’s a rose begonia. Thanks though and thanks for watching!
Not angel wing begonia, it is a rose begonia. They like to stay dry and be overwatered.
Thank you for the information! Also thanks for watching!
How do you keep your rocks weed free?
I use preen in the spring. I use a heavy layer of mulch, and weed a little each day. Thanks for watching! Deanna
How do you prevent rabbits from eating your plants? Hostas and other plants have been destroyed by the rabbits.
i dont know but i think it will rot your tree faster if you put a pot on the stump cos you have to water the pot more often.
That is a good point! I will think on that! Thanks for watching!
I am in central Illinois near peoria. But I am zone 5. How central are u?
Apparently half of Peoria is 5b and half is 6a. Did you know that?
