💕started watching you last year and now I'm able to go farther back to see where it all began💕
Kudos to you for getting those vines out and planting hydrangeas, that was a lot of hard work! I use cardboard under mulch, works much better than newspaper. 👍
Wi
Thanks to you, I bought a discounted Limelight. It was in very sad state, but it now has new grow and leaves. Thank you from Ohio and garden lover. P.S. I show it in one of my video’s 💕
i'll check it out. Next season that hydrangea will put on a show for you.
Hi Beth I"m from Ohio too. I"m sad I didn't buy any because they just looked so sad now I"m sad:{ Happy gardening
This is our channel 💕🙂
I love neighbors that care about their property.
That’s a ton of work! It will look beautiful when you’re finished!
My husband does't stay home on his day off to avoid any yard or garden work so I can't put him on yard work , i do everything by myself ...you are lucky that your husband try to help
I mainly do it all, but when hes home he tries to help with the heavy stuff. He's very supportive of my hobby and i appreciate him a lot for that. Sorry :( you have to do all this hard labor alone.
Lollllll, lolllllll, are you me?.......🤣.....Mine will stay home when it's his day off and is not afraid to say 'nope'..lol..he has to be in a certain mood to dig or lift, otherwise he's a GREAT guy..🙂
Goodness you are a hard worker. Great job. Love your will to succeed. Your bed looks great. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Lisa
Wow! I'm impressed.. that was a lot of work.. but, at the end.. it will be very beautiful. You and your husband will enjoy forever .. and I hate to say... You are the envy of the neighborhood 😁❤️👍👏👏👏👏.. great job.
Hard work:) What I love about you doing this and sharing it, is that this is what a normal persons yard can be like. I've had 2. So much hard work, but who wants to live with the ugliness of an overgrown unkempt yard left by someone else. Your hard work will pay off and will make you proud. I only wish I knew all that I know now thirty years ago. Oh and also that they had U-tube video's like this. Have a happy day and keep making the world a more beautiful place.
kellyr100 thank you kelly. Been here almost 5 years and I’m slowly making my way around the yard. It’s a lot of work and after pouring A lot of $$$$ inside the house the bank was empty for outside. So why do it myself
@@GardenAddictz That's what I tell everyone , take a chunk and work on that and next year try and do the same..Because yes it is a lot of money,,but seeing and working in my garden is better than sitting around watching TV and eating bon bons, hahaha
GIRL I AM LEARNING SO MUCH FROM YOU , TRYING TO GET MY BODY IN SHAPE SO I CAN DO THIS NEXT SPRING. LOVE 💕 YOUR CHANNEL!!!!!!!
Love u much!!!! Don’t have the space. Live in the city but will confiscate a section of my daughters yard in Drexel Hill. U have really inspired me. Thanks
Boiling hot water mixed with a lot of borox kills plants and weeds. The cardboard is a brilliant idea. Wish I had seen this before redoing my front yard.
I can see your determination in all that hard work you did. Your garden will look lovely when completed. I picked up two sad looking limelight’s at Lowe’s yesterday. They were priced at $24.98 each. I asked for a discount and got them at $12.49 each. It’s like buy one get one free...Not clearance prices but I didn’t mind. I was told no more shipment of hydrangeas until the spring. I watched your video on how to prune and water them. Now I can’t decide where to place them. I named them Venus and Serena. 😁🌿🎾
hahahahaah love the name. Yes no more hydrangeas will be coming in until next year
Go girl!..those WEEDS😒😣😪😓...The laborers are FEW. But the harvest is SWEET!🌺🌹🌼🌱❤💯 They look nice. AND I can't wait till see them next year.🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
SWEEEEEETTTTTT. Can't wait to see them in full bloom next season
Hello! Thank you for this video. I have the same issues with vines on my fence. Also, love the cardboard that you place down. Very economical and better for the environment. Keep the videos coming and stay blessed. As always I will continue to pray for your channel to grow with great success.
All projects turn out to be harder than we think but it will be gorgeous when you are finished. Perfect spot for your bistro set under the tree.
Awww....it’s going to be so beautiful! Can’t wait to see part two.
Btw, you had me going to Lowe’s which is 30 min away and finding perennials for 50cents each. I ❤️ that u taught me that!
She had me doing the same thing. She taught me well.
You got rewared for driving the extra miles
Haha....lol
You have a wonderful husband to help you. I hope he gets a nice home cooked supper. :)
Every day except fridays. I dont cook on fridays lol
Sure, wish I could catch some Limelights on sale! They are a great plant! Hope to see an update soon.
I just did the same thing. Pulling up vines and root out of the soil after grass removal. I have a nasty blister on my left hand to show for this hard work. I feel for you, Woman! Good work. Wishing you success and happiness with the results.
You are such a hard worker! That area is going to be so beautiful when you are all finished with it! Your sweet hubby must love your garden vision also... and he helps! How fantastic is that!
Girl, you need to get you a STIHL cultivator! It’s a beast, my husband got me one this year and it has changed my life and saves sooo much time and effort.
I'll add that to my christmas list
@@GardenAddictz can rent at HD
Goo job👍🏼!! Just planted a few hydrangeas myself for the first time! Hoping for the best🤞🏼🌺!
So glad I found your channel! My back yard is covered in overgrown brambles and vines. So inspirational to watch you tackle these projects! It’s helpful when the work starts to seem overwhelming! Thank you!
Love to see the hedge today and your new brick patio. Love that you are showing this from a modest home standpoint and not a big garden center like so many. Curious if you feel you left enough spacing from the back of the fence to get around (trim) and between each hydrangeas (seems like they could be too close.)? I'm planting 4 in along a fence and would love you feedback now that these are established. I did not hear, but it appears these might be Limelights. I imagine it is just lovely! Thanks for sharing!!
Really enjoyed your problem solving and review of lighting and shade. Tilling roots is TOUGH! and even digging a hole in it is frustrating. You're amazing and cant wait to see how it all turns out!!!
The hard work is, somehow, invigorating, and the reward is very satisfying. Kind of like, it hurts so good. Looking forward to part 2.
Love this, watched before doing mine!
Good afternoon. I wish I would have seen this before I planted mine in my back yard. The cardboard is ingenious. I have four of them going down my back fence. Can’t wait to see part two.
It’s looking good so far, your hard work is paying off 😊👍🏻
Karen right now my back and legs are hurting. The hardest i've worked so far in my garden. Thank you for watching
Garden Addictz awwwww poor you, yes I bet it is, hot soaks in the bath for you.. and take it easy for a few days 😊
now that you've got some good hydrangeas established, you can take some cuttings in the early spring and get them to root and replant them to thicken it up :)
Hi Jessica, that is exactly my plan. Because a girl can never have enough hydrangeas 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great! Love it. That hedge will be spectacular next year....
Can spring 2020 be here already? lol
@@GardenAddictz see if you can get some arborvitaes or green giants on sale. My lowes has them at 50% off..so about 25 bucks for a 5 feet. That way you can have some structure for the winter months...you can put them behind the hydrangeas or bookend them...
@@yussef18 you be reading my mind. I'm waiting for tractor supply to restock. They normally have 3Ft for $16 a piece. My lowes here wont put them on sale until octoberish
@@GardenAddictz mine does the same. But I am on a first name basis with the garden center manager and just ask her and she gives me the 50% off now. By October it will be 75% off but they will be half dead and might not survive the winter...
wow, that's alot of hard work, who says gardening isn't great exercise. Those hydrangeas look great already.
Thanks Jane. Labor of love. I'm in a lot of pain today hahahaha
Looks great!
That’s going to look fantastic. I saw a garden in CT on Saturday that had hydrangea hedges all over - it looked so good! I may do one myself. I am going to try propagating my limelights!
I will be trying that myself as well, i mean can we ever have too many hydrangeas?
I have 4 Limelight’s 3 of them are 6-7’ tall and one is 5’ tall. They had an explosion in growth this summer after 3 years.
WOW. gonna be gorgeous. i'm exhausted from the amount of work you did. can't wait to see new fence.
lol im exhausted too. Thanks for watching
Love all the hydrangeas mass planted. Thanks for sharing ⭐️
So glad i found you
Good and beautiful job 👍
I used "soil busters" many years ago to remove ice plants in garden bed, it worked slow but it worked. Card board works well also.
I am starting a New garden, but there is roots from nearby trees, will it help if I used it
you are a rock star and my hero!!!
well thank you. lol thanks for watching
Whew, that’s some hard work! It’s interesting to see how you’re dealing with an area that’s tough to plant. Your husband did a great job with the tiller, considering the mass of roots in that spot. Great job to you both!
cant wait to see this next year. I wish I could find some clearance hydrangeas. I've look but no luck. thanks for your vids
It's pretty late in the season now, but there is always next season
Good job! Love your process!
This is going to be just lovely! You have a lot of energy.
Great job! Can't wait to see how pretty the hydrangea hedge will be.
Wow that was a lot of work. But so worth it!
Just brought some hydrangeas off of Clarence on Taylor avenue in Towson parkville. Beautiful
Looking really nice. 🌿
Good job. Can’t wait to see it finished.
You work so hard! 💪💪💪 Love the simplicity of this planting! 🌳🌝🌳🌝
Thank you. Thanks for watching
You always make me want to be a better gardener.
That looks great! You did a great job in layering the ground to prevent weeds. Your hydrangeas will love you for that. Thanks for the inspiration. I need to get some more for my garden too!
Wow!!! A lot of hard work but well worth it. I had my granddaughter pick up some clearance Quick Fire Hydrangeas from Lowe's for me. She. Brought them to me and said here are your dead bushes. They will be beautiful next year😀😍
hahahahah she doesn't understand. They will be beautiful for sure next season.
You are doing a good job! Keep inspiring us! I just ordered some bobo hardy hydrangeas. I know next summer they are going be great. When you put up your privacy fence, it's going to be great! I know when we put ours up, I felt wonderful!
I was told to wet the ground before tiling will help a lot. I got a tiller that I haven't used yet but I will use it for my fall garden soon. Good job on the cleanup. I did my edible garden by hand with a hoe so I know the work.
I have clay soil, so it would have been a mud pool back here if i had wet it 1st
@@GardenAddictz oh ok that makes sense.
Looks awesome! Excited to see it finished 😍
Can’t wait to see the evolution!! 🌺🌺
Wow! I wish our Blue Box Store had clearance like that!
Huge amount of work putting in a new bed. It’s going to look amazing in the end though!!
I'm still in pain
Looks great. Thanks for your detailed explanation of your approach. I agree that no dig is not a good option for large shrub placement. You’ve struck the right compromise, IMO. It’s going to be beautiful!
Thank you Jennifer
Looks great. I used black mulch in my backyard. It looks so sophisticated, if that makes sense. We have rocks in a flower bed in the front of the house that we are gonna swap out for black mulch in the spring. Can’t wait to plant some hydrangea’s too!!!
It's going to be amazing next year! Thank you for the video!😘
This is going to be beautiful, your honey has your back, awesome!...Sometimes I am so adamant about killing roots, I boil water and throw at roots, nothing works better for me.
i will try that
I had the same problem but we built a vinyl fence and all the weed stop coming also I did mulch a lot with fall leaves now I do not have that problem.
Awesome job 👍Can you please add a detail information about drip irrigation in part 2 of this video.
Sure
@@GardenAddictz thank you Moya you are awesome :)
Nice vid, thank you! Greets from Europe Holland
Great work. It's going to look amazing!
Boy, that's hard work! You go, girl! I've been tempted to go to Lowe's but I don't want to come home with more plants right now. I'm taking a break from gardening, it's scorching hot out there! Maybe in 3 weeks I'll start going to Lowe's again 😄
Love, Love, Love the hydrangeas. Going to be so well worth your work and efforts. I look forward to your videos, keep them coming. So great to see a realistic gardener I can relate to. I spent 5 hours edging beds today and even though I know I'll be rewarded, I'm hurting like *ell right now.
listen, my back is killing me. Im so sore but come spring i'll be smiling from ear to ear
Looks amazing! Well worth all the hard work🤗
Can’t wait to see them next year 💚
Nice hydrangeas. Hard work but next season will look great.
Its looking awesome!
You did an amazing job, beautiful.
Great job! It will be beautiful!
Inspiring...It's gonna be so beautiful :)
Can't wait to see how they came out. today os 5-30-2020
If you spray to kill weeds please DO NOT USE ROUNDUP!!!!!
I did not.
As much as I hate applying chemicals to my garden there are some things no amount of hand pulling or smothering with mulch will erradicate.
I apply Roundup concentrate with a foam brush to fresh cuts on volunteer tree stumps and they don't bush out ever again.
Sometimes you have to fight agressively. (And this from someone who spent a fortune hiring an organic company to spray my lawn weeds with a molasses solution.)
@@Edu_Kate i disagree. cardboard and mulch should do the trick. round up should be banned.
Spray before you cut. The poision is soaked in by the photosynthesis process through aborbing the poision by leaves. If you cut then spray, it won't kill the vines
I spray before i cut but i was not satsified, so couple days later i went in and chop/pruned and pull as much as i could
My husband avoid me when I’m in the garden, I’m a little jealous lol I can just imagining how beautiful it’s going to be. I would really appreciate if you could do a detailed video on the drip irrigation
Lolllll at 'avoid me in garden'.......my experience too, yet when his employees or associates visits and compliment the yard , he feels good. As I said in a previous thread, he helps when he in mood(rarely)...when he does help he tramples & isn't gentle..🤣..that's my honey..
I use cardboard to. Good luck young lady!
Lots of work ! But is going to be so pretty !!
Wow, it’s going to look amazing!! That is a lot of work honey, I was tired just watching, lol!
hahahahhaa It was. But come next season i'm going to be loving it all
Garden Addictz it’s going to be glorious!
I went to the big stores but it seems like in my town that Lowe's is the only one that has clearance items. Home Depot told me they just rotate out the plants as the season changes. *Cries*
Castiel Novak HD doesn’t do clearance anymore. They send back unsold/dying plants back to the nurseries
@@GardenAddictz oh okay, I was sad to find that out
I love what you’re doing! You must have wonderful soil. Very little clay! I have to add tons of additives to break my up! Question! HOW in the world do you get the hucheras, coral bells, so big,? Mine grow out of the ground and small leaves. Their in shade?? Drives me nuts, I love them! Also have several hydrangeas and azaleas but these hucheras are a total mystery. Thanks!
Jan Johnson they get 5 hours of midday sun. In spring I fertilize with plant tone by espoma. I also use compost as mulch around the base of them.
Beautiful… Do you have an update video?
Manageable chunks is my motto. I work alone so there is no way I can do everything at once. Besides if I did it all at once, there would be no ongoing amusement! If everything was "done", I think I would be sad. What would I do then?
Right. I need to leave some for tomorrow. Can't do it all today lol
Nice job! Isn't it a lot of work, making a new bed? But will be SO worth it!
I've just made a big new Hydrangea bed too- hoping will not be too sunny in mid summer! ❤️ from Australia
As long as you keep them hydrated they will be fine. They might shock from the heat but will recover
Hard work, but keep up the good work!
Tell me about that cart that dumps and where you got it/? I loved it
I love your garden hat!! Where did you get it?
I have been buying these limelight hydrangeas with free gift cards lol - but I love me a good clearance! How much did you pay and where did you find them? Would love to be able to score these on sale!
The Freebie Guy Lowe’s in Maryland
Oh and btw I found out that 20% vinegar mixed with salt and a table spoon of dish soap kills plants just as good as the chemicals. I’m about to order some for my yard and I’ll let u know how it worked.
ok great. keep me posted please
Ugh, those pesky weeds😡Try Burn Out. It’s an organic week killer. It works best when sprayed on a sunny hot day. You can buy it at Home Depot or Amazon. Hope that helps. Love the hydrangeas. Wow, they’re going to be beautiful.
Drase Lee thank you, I’ll look into it. Yes, can’t wait for next season to see them in all their glory
I wish I had more shade. I'm dealing with a lot of sun and my hydrangeas are not loving it. I'm going to have to figure out how to put them in containers and have them in shady places like on my porch.
Christy Allred what kind of hydrangeas are they and what zone are you in?
@@GardenAddictz I have one Strawberry Shake and one LA Dreamin and I'm in zone 7
Christy Allred they strawberry shake can take the heat. It’s a panicle hydrangea, but the La dreamin is bigleaf. It needs shade.
👍
How have they performed? I am waiting on LOWEs to put some on clearance; I check twice a week.
Love your videos. You inspired me to start my own channel😊 Uploaded my first video😊
Hi! I don't know if you'll see this comment, but I bought a little Peegee Hydrangea that was basically a stem with roots from walmart. I planted it in the ground in a bed with afternoon sun. I don't know what to expect from it right now. The tag said 'plant this season, bloom next'. But I think it is dead. I'm keeping it watered, but again it is in afternoon sun. Any tips? Thanks!
Lovely hat, did you get it online?
