May Garden Tour! A Unique Dogwood Tree, Black Iris, Long Blooming Geum, & Cool New Alliums 2023
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2023
- I finally identified a cool dogwood tree I have in my garden. Its either celestial shadow, or summer gold korean dogwood. It is so unique and has variegated foliage. Also, I planted a new variety of Alliums called "Christophii". They have finally bloomed and turns out, they are gorgeous! The bulbs were so affordable as I purchased a 3 pk for about $5-6 at Lowes last Fall. I plan on adding some more this coming Fall. I added a new bearded Iris that is now in Bloom, its black! and called "black is black". Come take a walk in the May garden with me. Thanks for watching - Steph (Gardening in Massachusetts zone 6b) #gardening #gardentour #garden

Absolutely gorgeous gardens looking lovely!! I always get a lot if inspiration from you, definitely one of my favorite UA-cam gardners 😊
Thank you so much Michelle, you made me smile. Glad to have you here!
Same here! Love love her channel!
So beautiful Steph! We have many of the same plants. I'm always talking so fast and all over the place in my videos. Yours are so peaceful and enjoyable. I'm going to try to be more serene LOL. Thank you for sharing:)
Hi Carol! Thank you so much! I'm sure thats not true, I'm bet your great! I will get over to your channel to watch. The garden is my space to slow down. Sometimes I try to get a bunch of things done since time is at a premium, and other times I just try to slow down and enjoy, definitely not easy for me since I'm such a busy body. But I appreciate your kind words, thanks for being here and for watching.
Beautiful and relaxing to watch.
Thank you so much Ginger 😊
Steph, the gardens look so pretty. well done. I would love to see more regularly.
Hi Barb! Thank you so much! I try to do these monthly during the growing season, but things are moving quickly this year, so I'll probably throw in a couple extra garden walks this year 💚
see you from thailand
Lovely Flowers ^~^
Like 871 ❤️
My friend, thank you for good sharing 😊
My garden is only 2 yrs old, so still new. i love your full, mature garden.Of the 40 perennials I planted last yr only 33 came back. I'm zone 4B, so the flowers have NOT all in bloom.
Hi Estelle! I would say your doing great if 33/40 came back. It was a very strange winter for weather, and that is a tough gardening zone as its very cold and your season is so short. Its taken 10 years/seasons of gardening here for the gardens to fill out. Yours will be there in no time. Thanks for watching.
awesome dogwood
So pretty right? I'm so happy to have it Julie. I'll let it live in my garden as long as it wants too 🌳
WOW beautiful gardens, & you give so much great info!! Thank you!
It’s absolutely breathtaking out there Steph! Btw…that River Birch is looking fabulous as well. Thanks for sharing and stay blessed!
-Calvin
Hi Calvin! I'm so glad it made it through the winter. Has to be a good sign right? Thank you so much!
Beautiful AND relaxing!
Clematis wilt…ugh…look forward to comments as to what to do!
Hi there! thank you so much! and yes, me too. Hopefully someone tells us what we need to do to prevent the darn wilt. So disheartening. I want to be good at growing them so badly lol, they are so beautiful!
I have three of the firelight tidbits and love them
Yay Meghan! I'm glad to hear it! I'm going to look into ordering some soon! I need 5 and haven't found them anywhere locally yet.
Your garden is going to be beautiful this summer, the maple trees also the miniature rhododendron gorgeous
Saying hi from South Africa
Steph your garden is stunning. So many incredible shrubs and trees. Beautiful!
Hi Sue! Thank you so much sweet friend! 💚🥰
Your garden is so lovely! I especially love the irises! 😊🌸💛
Just beautiful Steph! Thanks for sharing! I love when my favorite YT gardeners share garden tours with us. They are so inspiring! Thank you 😊♥️🙏🏼
Hi Stef 🌺What abeautiful tour of the uniqe plants and trees . I love all these flowers.Have anice day. 🌻🌺🌻
Thank you so much Lina! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great week!
Thanks so peaceful and calming. Always enjoy watching your garden tours.
Thank you so much Janice, I'm glad you enjoyed it 💚😊
🌿Love watching your garden tours, Steph. Everything is looking glorious so far. Thank you for sharing 🌿
Thank you so very much Jolie! Thanks for watching! 🥰💚
I'm in zone 7, Maryland, and yes, everything bloomed early. My Kwanzan cherry tree bloomed almost an entire month earlier than in previous years. And I noticed some things have bloomed out quickly, too. My Stella d'oro daylilies look to be almost 2 weeks earlier than normal. I hope I end up with blooms later this summer.😩
Your gardens look lovely, very inspirational.
Your garden is beautiful! Also interesting about the pugster butterfly bush. I was JUST looking at them to replace 2 bushes in my yard that died (I'm in 6B in NJ).
Hi Jessica! This bed of mine is very wet. It holds onto a lot of moisture and drains poorly. I'm fairly certain that's what ended up killing the pugster butterfly bushes. It was a tough winter for plants. Too wet, then dry, then a polar vortex. Just very extreme swings.
You have such a beautiful Spring garden, I enjoy all your tours, especially the Iris plants &
Lilacs, and so much more.
Thank you so much Marie! I'm so glad you enjoy them 💚 Have a great week!
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing and giving us some ideas.
I was trying to keep track of which plants in your garden are my favorite. It was too hard because I love them all Steph! 😍🥰
Aww Mary, Thank you SO much! 💚💚💚
I love seeing how your garden blooms!
Thank you so much! 😊
Sve je tako divno.❤
Great video ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Maria! 💚
I have the concertina iris too!! The colors are so beautiful
Its gorgeous!!
Very beautiful garden.
Thank you so much Veronica!
I’m in northern Massachusetts on the New Hampshire line and everything seems to be very far behind. I really enjoy your videos and look forward to seeing your tours.🌸
Hi Maryanne! I wonder if its because its cooler up north? Thank you so much, glad to have you here!
😢 nine months late on response because lost back up from old phone but was able to still watch you on my TV. Looking forward to seeing your garden this season🌸
wow very amazing sharing
All your flowers gardens are so beautiful ❤
Thank you so much Judy! 💚
Just recently found your site and have enjoyed it! I live in SE Pennsylvania and we had such a mild winter that we are around 1 month ahead of most springs.
Steph, beautiful tour I love the varitety. Just planted my Angelina Stone Crop an inspiration from your video. Zone 4 Twin Cities we had a late spring blooms about 3_wks behind my tulips are done, enjoying alliums with spring perennials about ready to pop. 🌿
Beautiful garden, loss of ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! You're very welcome😊
I must copy everything you do. 😂This video blew my mind. Seriously. Fantastic job!!
Thank you so much, Cleleste 💚 glad to help and provide inspiration. It's fun to experiment with different plants and combinations.
Love Love your Garden Tours♥♥ The River Birch is stunning Steph - one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your beautiful gardens with us!!
Thank you so much Robyn! I'm really loving the tree, and hope it stays well and growing for years to come. Thanks for being here! 💚
My alliums faded fast this year too! I’m right on the zone 6A/5b border. Same alliums lasted for weeks last year!
That's so interesting! I'm not sure why. The weather has been relatively cool too. Perhaps because its been dry, at least here. We've only had rain one day in the last several weeks.
@@HookedandRooted I think you’re probably right! We had a very short spring! The last 10 days we’ve had all temps in the 90s 😭💔 and almost no rain! Just a brief sprinkle here and there. Very unusual Midwest weather. I managed to cut and refrigerate all my peony blooms because I knew they would shrivel in the heat. The good news: I’ve never seen my summer plants this big this early! My echinacea, hydrangeas, roses and dahlias are all very happy!!
Very beautiful and inspirational. Thank you for sharing this with us. I’m thinking about what I want to add to my flower gardens this year and you gave me some great ideas, thank you. Have a wonderful week, love from Ohio.
Hi Beth! Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed, and that you found some inspiration 💚Have a great week also!
My doses do well, I only water the dirt, not the leaves;) I also feed them
Great to hear Kristine. I think the issue with mine is the moisture they receive. The soil stays wet in that bed I have near my patio. I also feed with rose tone in late winter early spring, and again after they have bloomed their first flush. Great tip about not watering the leaves! I've tried to get better about that as well.
So beautiful❤
Thanks Bonnie!
Dogwoods grow very slowly and when they are mature, they take off...plus the “blooms” are called “brachs” and I learned that on Gardeners World...Your rhododendron is AMAZING.
Beautiful 🌻🌻
Thank you so much! 😊
It is incredible how faster your garden is in advance! Where I am in Quebec zone 3A. Far behind you! Ha ha
Hi Daniel! oh yes, your in a very cold zone. I feel even behind when I see gardens from zones 7, 8 and 9. But with that said, I do feel like my garden is ahead this year. If I go back to my May garden tour last year, things are much more advanced. Each year is different. Thanks for watching.
Absolutely stunning Steph 🥰 with all my favourite colours that I have in my own garden 🥰🥰
Thank you so much Jasmine! We have similar taste in flower colors 🥰💚
Oh I’m always behind on garden chores! I’m trying to pull weeds as i water so I can TRY to keep up. My allium we’re so fun for two weeks and then done, my IRIs, weigeilia, peonies are lovely! Waiting for surprises now
Hi Heidi, The garden is always growing, and so is the list of things to do out there right?! We get to it eventually. We've been extra busy this season, so I'm trying to not to beat myself up about it. This is the reality of things, we do what we can with the time we have. Alliums are beautiful but so fleeting. Yay for all the beautiful spring blooms. Have a great week!
Your garden is just beautiful…..All of your hard work has paid off!🥰
Thank you so much Jeanette! 💚
So beautiful! Will gomphrena be blooming soon? Your gomphrena was so beautiful last year, so I started some from seeds.
Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful garden with us Steph!
Everything is so lush and beautiful 😊
Anu@ Toronto
Thank you so much Anu! Thank you for being here, watching, and for your lovely comments 💚🥰
Steph, would you please film when you prune your dwarf weeping Japanese maples? I have one that was last pruned three years ago. It is very happy in its spot because it's trying to take over everything around it. I need to know how to prune it, so I don't butcher it. It is a pretty tree. Thanks!
Such a beautiful garden
Thank you so much Margie 💚
Your plants, garden and the setting are beautiful, however I just wanted to give you shout out to your video quality is really top notch. Have you got a photography background? You get great angles and zoom in at all the right places. you move from plant to plant at a really considerate pace, and it all feels really natural. Fantastic well done.
Oh thank you so much Thomas! My husband helped with the filming. While we do not have a filming or photography background, I am very prone to motion sickness so we try to be very conscious of moving slowly. Thanks for noticing and your kind words 😊
Such beautiful gardens Steph thank you for sharing with us. 🐝🌷🌺🌼🐞
Thank you so much Jenni! And thanks for watching 💚🥰
So beautiful wish I could get some seeds here in jamaica
Everything looks fabulous. I haven't even gotten to mulch yet.😂
Lol we can only do what we can do right?! 😆 hopefully by the end of June the edging and mulching gets done ✔️ Thank you so much!
Geum look like a blend of poppy & geranium
A beautiful garden!
Thank you so much Jennifer!
Magnifique jardin de printemps. Vous vous en occupez toute seule ?
Merci Francesca!
OMG. I planted FIVE Southern Charm Verbascum and there they are just sitting there stunted...I babied them, I watched after them inside for weeks and here it is the end of May and they are just as flat as when I moved them back 4-weeks ago :(. Yours are nice and they are spreaders, too.
Beautiful 😍 everything looks amazing 🤩 thanks for sharing 😊
Everything looks so beautiful! Love your trees! I lost Bridal Veil Hydrangeas I had in pots to the flash freeze back in Dec or the late frost in March. I did see green growth on one so I moved it into the ground. Guess what? It was a Little Joe Pye weed a bird transplanted from my back to the front! I am going to give it a trim so it will get fill out as it is a tall stalk.
Such a beautiful garden! What is the small yellow plant in the background at the 2:40 mark?
Hi Aleta, that is candy corn spirea by Proven Winners.
I saw the bunny rabbit in your yard.
Wow! Gorgeous gardens! What is the name of the beautiful peach flowers next to your Asiatic Lillies and Joe Pye weed?
Thank you so much! That is called Mai Tai Geum. It's great! 🌱🧡
Oh my, sooo love your garden, very beautiful 😊
Thank you so much! 😊
Would you let me know what kind Japanese maple you have , thanks again
Very nice! My Wegelia wine and roses also bloomed nice this year, but some of my other things aren't so hot, we had a late spring and I thing we go some weird winter burn this year as some of my boxwood shrubs on the north and west side of the house are damaged but the east side they are fine. My Nine bark shrub hasn't bloomed - don't know why.
Yeah I agree everything is coming early I live in Indiana and zone 6 as well and I already have my coneflowers with butt heads on them
What is up with the talking app thing Bud heads😂
lol, I know what you meant though so what does that say about me?! 😂
Yes, i find that too Tonia. Lots of things in the garden are ahead of schedule compared to years past.
Poppies need a lot of water when the began to send up their scapes , or they will be short
Thank you so much! That is great to know! I've killed some perennial poppies before from overwatering. So I probably underwatered these. I appreciate it! Hopefully they make it through to next year, and with more moisture bloom beautifully.
@@HookedandRooted I’ve learned with poppies if I allow them to self seed they grow stronger than ever and after your current plants go through a good winter, they will be extremely robust, the hard part is getting through the summer, I find part sun areas to be my best luck. Happy growing 🌸
Such a peaceful video! Thank you so much for sharing! Could you tell me the name of the verigated iris variety? Alba? Elba? I have seen it before but can‘t seem to find it… thank you so much!
Hi Madi, it's called Iris Pallida Variegata Albo.
I used the Google lens for identifying but I went back to my fav free app plantnet. I am not Android user but I am sure it is available for Apple. It keeps my photos in a file so I can refer back to them. That helped me match some plants while shopping. I cannot find the phlox in my area and don't like to pay shipping. Maybe they will show up later this season 😅
Hi Lisa, Yes, I do believe you can use lens on iphones as well. But use whatever works for you. Thats very clever to keep your photos organized in a file to refer too. I totally get what your saying about paying for shipping, some shipping charges are pretty hefty. I hope you can find some phlox soon!
@@HookedandRooted I did find phlox at Lowe's for the holiday at $5 a piece. The PW were 18 and out my budget at this time.
I’m in zone 7b and I have to thin out miss Kim so she doesn’t get moldy she doesn’t like our humidity 😢
Oh no! That's good to know. Thanks for sharing Joi.
Where do u get all of ur Japanese maples? I’m trying to find roots or small growth because it is less costly.
What do you spray with to keep the bunnies out of your garden? I enjoy having the bunnies in my yard. Had lots of issues with them eating my flowers and veggies last year but, so far, this year they are more interested clover in my grass. I'm sure they will eventually find some of their favorite flowers and asparagus to munch on.
Hi Linda, My favorite thing that works for rabbits as well is the Invisible Fence Deer and Rabbit spray. It stinks, but works well, just don't spray on a windy day. Also, it will need to be reapplied after rain. Here's a link: amzn.to/3qfnFlR
@@HookedandRooted TY. I'll have to give that a try.
I’ve never heard of geum where did you pick these up?
Hi Alana! I actually purchased then at Lowes a couple of years ago.
Peut on déplacer les vivaces encore ou bien est il trop tard ? J’ai des vivaces qui se bousculent dans mes massifs maintenant que tout pousse.
Hello Francesca, Yes you can move your perennials now. But its best to do it in the evening as the sun is starting to weaken, and set. Also, if possible keep the transplants shaded for a day or two by using a chair or umbrella so that they aren't getting too much direct sun as they adjust to the transplant. Lastly keep the transplanted perennial well watered for a couple of weeks until its settled in its new spot. Hope this helps. Take care!
@@HookedandRooted merci beaucoup pour vos conseils.
I'm in zone 6B, which peonies are those that are budded but not bloomed yet? I'd like some later blooming peonies, all mine are early and are done.
Hi Kathy! My Shirley temple, and Sarah bernhardt are still budded and should bloom over the next week.
@@HookedandRooted Oh my, I don't have Shirley Temple, but Sarah has bloomed and finished over a week ago. Thanks for the reply.
When do you plant the Allium.? Is planted when you plant tulips?
Hi Karen, Yes exactly. The allium is planted in fall along with all the other spring blooming bulbs.
@@HookedandRooted thank you so much! I have learned so much from you. Just to let you know, I was just at Walmart in my area and they had marked the Dalia’s and other bulbs in packages down really cheap. I got some for 2.00 dollars. You might want to take a look at your store.Thanks again!
**Where is your birthday gift??***
Oh it's coming up next, and I can't wait!! We've been working so hard in the new garden in the back yard, that it hasn't left much time for anything else. Should be the next vid 😊
