    Just found you, liked and subscribed and I’m not halfway through the video! Love your voice, your manner and I haven’t even seen the garden yet! Looking forward to savoring it. Thanks from Florida, USA.

    Hi from Pennsylvania USA! This is just my style, three or four different kinds of pots filled with airy pinks and purples with a touch of white and yellow. Lovely!

    I garden in the ground and containers too.
    It gets to 105 f easily in the summer in high desert in Utah, US.
    I can move the plants in containers to shade if it gets to hot.
    I love arranging them around my sitting areas,
    and they are wonderful to arrange for fun occasions like an outdoor lunch or tea.
    To over-winter I bank them against my house, blow leaves on them,
    fill the gaps with short logs, rolled up cardboard, or paper bags stuffed with leaves.
    Our overnight winters can be as low as 5 f, and I have been very successful this way.
    Thanks for the great video, loved your 2 biggest!

    Nice to see I'm not the only one that budgets money on a regular basis for plants.....I've been doing it for years.....Going shopping for plants and flowers for my yard is my most favorite thing to do each year......You go crazy with the plants like me.....The more the better.....It's nice to see how other people plant.....It would be pretty boring if we all did it the same way.....I like getting ideas from others.......It looks great!.....Enjoy your beautiful plants while sitting out on your patio.....Thank You for sharing.

    I loved what you said about "loving learning". Such fun! Now that I'm aging and can't do as much in the garden without days of hobbling around, I'm doing more with native plants. A whole new field to learn about!

    I love my pocket gardens when they are newly planted up and freshly graveled and mulched. But then I also love them when they've gone a bit wild and escaped the confines of their pots. Healthy gardens are in a constant state of flux and all states are appealing.

    As I have learned…if they go away it is an opportunity to plant something else….I am 71 and have had flower garden mysteries (hate to call them mistakes) since I started. My first garden was tulips looking (sadly) like little red soldiers in uniform rows…Since then I have learned and have loved the experience. Good for happiness, soul and heart…make a “mistake” oh well another opportunity !

    Really enjoyed this, Karen. I am mad for a Foxglove but they seem hard to get. But I won't give up!!! Just thought it was worth a mention - Woodies DIY have, what I call, the cart where plants go to die. They are usually about €1 each and all they need is a good drink of water to revive them. I've a gorgeous bed of things from last year all from Woodies! My Lupins are miserable looking at the moment - the flowers have gone and they're all stalky with hairy seed pods. Hoping to save some of these for next year as well. (Did I actually say hairy seed pods?????? Kerrist almighty!)

      @@Lovelygirliebits cottage garden is exactly what i want too and Some salvias sre really drifty/ floaty in the ground. Getting ahead of myself though. The whole place is on a slope and has to be levelled, so next step will be to work on my propagation skills so I don’t lose any favourite plants long term

    I'm in Canada and really like this video. I doubt these plants would survive in pots through heavy snow and cold. So I wonder if I put them into my unheated garage this coming winter if they would survive? All my potted hostas come back every year after overwintering in garage. * Note try to find another potting soil, I noticed you are using Miracle gro which is synthetic and toxic. There are lots of organic potting soil and then amend with compost and natural fertilizer.

    As a Brit living in S Florida, I can tell you that you’ll never be 100% satisfied with your arrangements. I have a lot of pots, most of which I buy used since they’re expensive over here. I have to stop myself buying more, just because I find a good deal. Also, no gardener can just go window shopping for plants.
