one of the best garden tours. Tara is a master gardener and artist. Her landscapes look like paintings and her flower combinations are next level. Thank you for sharing this private garden. I now have to pick my jaw off the floor & wipe the saliva from the non-stop drool fest. Swooning over every design choice made! OMG, those window hay racks!!! What an arrangement!!!!!!
Tera is so knowledgable and was great to be able to share all her smart design tips! Be sure to check out her video on how to plant up those stunning hayrack planters: ua-cam.com/video/iNX0mRnfs9o/v-deo.html
Thank you!! It can definitely feel overwhelming at times. Thankfully i have talented helpers. But Ideally about 36 hours per week is needed. I find the key is doing it in laps… lap one: deadheading what is most noticeable then working your way into more detailed maintenance.
Wow this is such a great tour, so much information. Love the fact you put on the screen the names of the plants, nothing more frustrating than trying to figure out the spelling. The garden is amazing. Thank you a wonderful tour..
Wow! It’s like a painting it’s so beautiful. That delphinium serious pops and the grass is so lush. What a lucky client whoever gets to enjoy that every summer! TFS from 🇨🇦
It’s a sprint not a marathon every spring! 🤣 we do plant a little denser because of the shorter season which means every couple years we have a bunch of transplanting to do so new gardens are created!
I love this idea! This garden really transforms and is so fun to watch explode from bare ground to spring flowers and then develops to this is early August. 💖
I would be in HEAVEN to wander around here! Even to take care of the deadheading and weeding... sigh. This is WONDERFUL inspiration for my future flower borders! Thank you for the tour! (and for the mention of the anti-deer and anti-vole methods you use)
I learned that you can garden organically & not constantly be fertilizing if you nourish the soil. Also appreciate the teaching about the art of staking. Thank you so much for asking good questions on the viewer's behalf.
This garden is just gorgeous. I watch a lot of garden channels from the UK, and this one really speaks to her talent for bringing the French country side to CO. Even how the garden is below the grass, I think that would make for a nice way to mow without that dreaded weed eater.
@@terasgardens2254 I hope that dream comes true. I recently had a French channel in my feed, but it was gone after the next one, if I get it back I'll share it here. Maybe you haven't seen it, maybe you don't have the time to see it.?
Stunning, stunning garden. Pure beauty! Would you be able to name all the flowers by minutes in the video? I don’t know much about flowers but cant stop watching your video!
I just keep referring back to this beautiful garden, I am in love with coneflower and am adding to my garden and the white daisy's, thanks for the inspiration!❤ love your design!
What a great walkthrough of this beautiful garden! You really asked all the questions that I was thinking about and absolutely awesome idea with plant names on the screen!
Our summers in Pa are often times just horrific......but guess I don't know of a perfect spot on the earth these days..... the Garden of Eden has long past🌹 💚🌷💜🌸🤍🌱💮❤️
I love your garden!! Such a great inspiration to me as I am also a gardener and UA-cam creator. You put a lot of work and love into growing your garden! All the hard work is paying off. I still have so much to learn about gardening and I appreciate your tips, tricks! I’d love to learn more about gardening from each other.
Thank you!!! This garden is planted tightly and tend to be able to support each other. But they do flop, and when they do cross staking like explained in the video for the daisies is my go to.
The tour happened early august so it was the sweet spot where they were all blooming. The daisies do get cut back by September and the echinacea and rudbeckias continue blooming into the fall. 💖 thanks for watching!!
Instead of just looking at the two women it would have been nicer if we could see more of how the beautiful borders were connected instead of showing isolated shots.
Dear moles voles weeds and summer of 90f each day but cold at night is Latvia EU .Gardening on the edge but have built a five acre garden .Some of it hedged off into rooms of Edwardian England on clay soils.
Thank you! I love the Happy Frog Soil Conditioner. It’s rich in bat guano and earthworm castings so really helps to improve the soil and feed the plants.
This garden is maintained to a extremely high standard all summer. If this was my personal garden I would spend a lot less time in it as it wouldn’t have to be picture perfect all summer long like it is.
Since there are many different varieties of shasta daisy, I would like very much to know the specific name of the shasta daisy that you planted in your garden please! Thank you :) Your garden is very beautiful. Pink is also my favourite colour :)
@@mmcreads thank you! This was my first video ever, I’ve never even done on for my instagram story, gen x’er scared of the camera I guess 😂 I had so much fun doing this so I am open to doing more but have no clue what to do them on!!! Feel free to send me ideas on what you would like to learn about!
@@terasgardens2254 lol same but you were a natural! There’s a serious lack of good CO gardening channels on YT (non-veggie stuff) so I watch Laura with Garden Answer on here…she’s in eastern Washington I believe and has the same high plains desert climate and soil so it’s as close as I can find for regional specific issues in the garden (high ph, soil amendments, wind, irrigation, etc). Check her channel out sometime when you’re prepared to end up down a binging rabbit hole 😂
Hi Tera what a wonderful view😀 but do you have any tip for rabit I'm try so many thing but it seem like my flowers bed is a big you can eat salad bar to them 😭
Hi! I start as soon as the snow melts with a coyote urine granular. I find the sooner I can encourage them to live somewhere else the better! Then throughout the season we reapply if we see signs of nibbling.
This tour and video was WAY too SHORT. I could have watched it for hours. Thank you for labeling the plants for us. Please do another video of this garden to highlight other lovely plants. Thank you.
For the most part they are able to hold their own. But, when needed. I use the same method i stake the daisies in the video. Primarily these are the magnus variety.
Loved this video… could someone please clarify what she meant by soil conditioner? So it’s not compost? It’s a pre-mixed garden soil? I also have heavy clay.
Do you have any information on what brand soil conditioner she recommends? I’m a Colorado gardener and have struggled with my mulch developing fungus like she mentioned so want to try her recommendations
What I have problems is with the soil. I live in Georgia and it's the same; I have red clay and it is very compact and I don't know how to break and condition it, to be able to plant. Everything I plant dies or doesn't grow.😢 I watch videos for that, and some say one thing and others say another, but definitively that garden is a dream. Recommendations?! Thanks🥰
“Mouse Magic” are the packets I use on the Clematis… I’m also experimenting with droplets of mint oil at the base of the plant. As soon as the snow melts I start applying coyote urine granular too. Luckily I don’t have much Vole tunneling in the gardens, just the small section of lawn.
Yes generally in an environment that has humility and a growing season of more than 3 months this is true. However in the mountains of Colorado where I only have 3 months free of freezing temperatures and VERY low humidity, we are a high alpine dessert, the fungus does not have the time to break down the mulch and build the soil. That is why I don’t use a traditional bark mulch. It doesn’t have time to break down. I have had new clients who do not replace their old mulch from their last landscaper for 5 years and the fungus layer makes a mat that doesn’t allow water to penetrate through to the root and ends up being detrimental to the plant growth. This is very different from where I started gardening in Ohio… where we had a longer growing season and high humidity. But in my 20 years of gardening in Colorado’s dry climate, traditional wood mulch isn’t the way to go to achieve this type of garden.
I use traditional gridded peony hoops, if the plant out grows the hoops / or the flowers are too heavy, i use the same method of cross staking that is demonstrated on the daisies. Sometimes if the peony is very mature i have found that making a circle of bamboo w 5 stakes around the outside of the peony and weaving green plant ‘tape’ tightly between the stems and around the stakes… think of a dream catcher… but you have to do it tightly so the tape doesn’t stretch out. Hope that helps!
Delphinium grandiflorum 'Summer Nights', common name Siberian Larkspur. It does well in high altitude gardens. The blue is soooo intense and the flowers have a crazy coloration up close. I am hoping by letting them go to seed this year they will naturalize into other areas.
Thank you for asking I was looking for that eye catching blue too! It's very forget me not blue but clearly blooming after forget me nots have called it quits for the year!
I want my garden to look like that. My garden is pink, purple, blue, and white. Pink coneflowers and roses, blue bachelor buttons, purple lilacs salvia lavender and poppy's, and white daisy and Elysium. How do you get rid of grasshoppers? My hollyhocks are grasshopper magnets. But I have cats that like to eat them, so I need something that is pet friendly.
Ugh grasshoppers! We have tons of them too. I love a product called NOLO grasshopper bait… the problem is the factory had a fire 2 years ago and they haven’t returned to full operation as it takes a while for the biological agent to grow. I’m having no luck again this year finding it but remember it for next year as i imagine it will be back then! Would love to see your gardens! Are you on instagram?
As soon as the snow melts i start with a coyote urine granular in the gardens. This year for the first time i used “solar ultrasonic Mole Repellent” stakes too, which I think helped. As the season goes on I reapply the coyote granular a couple times and for the base of clematis I use “Mouse Magic” packets.
I’m not 100% sure but they look like a Delphinium (Siberian larkspur) to me. Either tatsienense or grandiflorum variety which are shorter than the familiar tall delphiniums.
I used to hate lambs ear for that exact reason… but it’s such a great contrast I couldn’t exclude it from this garden. I do divisions / transplants every spring to keep it in control and have fallen back in love with it because it transplants so well into other areas that need filling or expanded on… but i also strategically planted it in smaller groupings so it’s easier to keep in control verses a full boarder. Thanks for watching!

what do you do for gophers or moles

Yikes....Lambs Ear...I hack it away all summer and fall. Someone planted it long ago and I can't get rid of it...very invasive PA zone 5b
I used to hate lambs ear for that exact reason… but it’s such a great contrast I couldn’t exclude it from this garden. I do divisions / transplants every spring to keep it in control and have fallen back in love with it because it transplants so well into other areas that need filling or expanded on… but i also strategically planted it in smaller groupings so it’s easier to keep in control verses a full boarder. Thanks for watching!
