    I love watching John stride about, weeding, trimming, wryly commenting, planning the future garden… NO ONE else does a garden video quite like John!

      I also love how he finishes off his videos without all the goodbyes etc.

    I started to watch your gardning videos when I was getting well from a head injury 🤕 and was very low and lonely. You made smile again and helped me to go back to the garden. I got the confidence to cut back the 🌹 brushes with a kick 😂😂😂😂 like you did . You are my favourite garden therapist ❤

      Me too!, I've never had such success in my garden, esp shady areas thanks to John. I also find now while on my journeys I'm noticing and pointing out plants John has lol can't help it 😂

    I never know when you say "finish off" if you're going to show us a plant or Chelsea Chop a plant. 😂 You are a treasure, John. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gardens with us. When you said it had rained all of July I could have cried. I live in East Texas (U.S.). We have been over 100° and no rain for weeks now. We are burning up. So it's a pleasure to see your happy plants. Would you tell us where you got your shirt ? It's perfect.

Thoroughly enjoyed the video as always John ❤

    John our Mutabilis is 20+ years old and we cut it to 2 feet tall and it comes back to 10 feet tall every season!! The different colors as the flowers age is lovely and the bees love it!

    SF Botanical gardens is amazing, one of the best I have visited! Heading to Brooklyn Botanical gardens in a couple of weeks! I am with you regarding the putting in, lifting and re-planting. I do hanging baskets and window baskets annually but that is it! Too much work!

    Your garden is looking amazing. My Michigan garden usually very dry at this time of the year is also benefiting from a lot of rain. My phlox is looking amazing (It could have been the dry spring and wet summer). I also love SF botanic garden - one of my favorite places in the world.

    I love monarda..they tend to get mildew.
    I have a fire red plant....amazing colour.
    Took seeds last summer but it seems to have runners everywhere.
    I'm going to move some seedlings around and put some echinacea with it and achillias.
    Do you have any astrantias?
    Can't get them here in New Zealand.
    That gunnera is going to be awesome, if the frosts leave it.
    Pampas grass is all over the sides of our country roads, they move beautifully in the wind.
    Gallardia or Helianthus?.....same genus?

    My Sanguisorba is now about 7 feet tall and have deep red flowers that disappear at the back of the garden. If this was chopped back early, would it have thrown larger flowers as it used to have?

  • @Sandra-gk3ct
    @Sandra-gk3ct 10 місяців тому

    Well, you got me all excited about Persicaria affinis in Florida 9a... nope. I've still got pots of it, will try it in some dry shade? Without so much rich soil? What's similar sort of, is Acalypha pendula, dwarf Chenille plant, that, despite what the 'facts' say does well here in north end of 9a, Florida, (and does better with shade). You also talked me into Grace Smoke Tree, Cotinus grace... which is doing beautifully for it's first year, and is about 10 feet tall, I keep it well watered as water really drains fast here in sandy Florida, it was about 10" tall to begin with. Really looking forward to next year with this Grace tree, for it's blooms... and also the fall color of the leaves. The jury is still out on some others you talked me into... You're a lot of fun!
    P. S. -gk3ct someone's trying to scare me.

  • @nicolasbertin8552
    @nicolasbertin8552 2 місяці тому

    Some parts of your garden are really nice, but most of it looks way too contrasty, it's like there's everything everywhere with no cohesion. There's so many tall plants it's suffocating, I think it would benefit from more changes in height, and a LOT more grasses. Like if you have a huge variety of plants but 4-5 grasses everywhere, it would help with cohesion.
