Hi John thanks for putting the plant names up on screen helps a lot
We’re in Northern Ireland so we will watch you on later.John is a wonderful person my husband loves his style of gardening 👩🌾.A great person all around he’s so humble and wonderful.Happy gardening 👨🌾.🌹🌹💐💐💐🍀🍀🍀🍀☘️☘️☘️☘️🪴🪴🪴🪴🎍🎍🎍🪵🪵🪵🎍🌵🌵🌵
This man is hilarious - garden in a canoe comment got me - almost as good as his 'bendy over' and 'standy uppy' lines😀
Yes , he always cracks me up ! And he is wide open , it would take a bunch of people to keep up with him . 😂
I would love to meet him
Makes my day when i see a new John video pop up 8 just know im gonna be entertained educated & laugh a lot. Youre a star John⭐️⭐️⭐️
David, are you the videographer? If so, it would be great if someone would ask John to tell us about his education & career in gardening. I'm sure his loyal fans would love to hear about it.
Oh, yes, nothing like a good hard pruning to make a plant grow and look fabulous. I have helped many inexperienced gardeners here in the USA learn how to take care of their plants. When they they see me do the Chelsea chop they freak out and tell me i am crazy. But then they see the results and can't believe how the plants prosper. Loved following you through your stunning garden. Will look for more videos from you. Susan
Love John’s ruthlessness with the veronicastrums- none are safe from him!😅
“She sells self-sown seedlings by the seashore” 😅😅😅
If you are ever having a bad day or are a little bit down, maybe, possibly then this wonderful man is an antidote....."I love saying Mecanopsis Cambrica...that fellas parents had a few bob and were able to get him educated" 🤣. Thank you John for brightening up the day and for your wonderful knowledge of course. Paul 🙏😊👍❤️
I'm French, I don't understand everything you say, but I've watched all your videos. I'm having a lot of fun with you and I'm learning a lot. Best regards John 😉
Floppy flower needing a Chelsea chop…could be the start of a song…very entertaining today. Learning new plants.
I am so impressed with the knowledge John has. How does he remember all the names of each plant. People are missing the opportunity to learn form this Irishman :)
Why do I want to hug him ❤
Iam so glad he’s back!! Every time I get a notification that John uploaded a new video my hart make a jump ❤
Always love walking your gardens with you. Knowledgeable, ambitious and funny. Thanks for taking us along. 👍❤️😊
Well John…you were on it today for sure😀 I needed the laughter❤️
The Chelsea chop King👊 Damien gardener from Cork City
Thanks, John and David! Always a learning experience! 😊
I love this channel and John - you’re a gas man. I’d love to buy some of those epimediums ❤
I have 4 different kinds of epimediums and like them all. In NYS they are not cheap! And Cirsium rivulare…I have wanted that plant for several years and can’t find it in USA ☹️.
If I ever travelled to Ireland, visiting Ratoath Garden Center would be #1 and then #2 would be Book of Kells.
Thank you for another great video.
No planes today!😃
Thalictrum must be punished for sowing itself 😆
Epimediums are desired here in USA (Massachusetts).
I love them myself and they command premium prices here.
I don't need to Chelsea chop ... the deer and rabbits do it for me ... 🤷♂️
🤣
Margie- love your sweet pup!
Thank you.I love your videos. They are inspiring, informative and fun from a true plants man.
I've been threatening to Chelsea chop my tall yellow flowers since I heard John Lord mention this. I'm growing tall yellow flowers called rudbeckia laciniata 'Hortensia" in Belfast, Maine, USA. They grow to over six feet tall. We had to build a sort of cage for them because every year when they would flower, they would flop over--especially after a rain. It's so difficult to keep them propped up. Back in the day, these flowers were known, politely, as "outhouse flowers" because that's where they were often grown, around an outhouse because they could lean against the outhouse walls and stay propped up. Well, I Chelsea chopped my swath just about a week ago. They shouldn't grow anywhere near as tall now, and they should get bushier. Perhaps they'll stay within their enclosure now. This is an experiment in Chelsea chopping.
I managed to sprout a few Veronicastrum seeds this spring (it's not available as a plant here), and they are still tiny plants. Seeing John hack it down hurts. And John's into is what made me feel I have to have it!
I wish he had more videos. Love them all.
Hi John one of the best videos you’ve made funny, useful helpful your the best Sheila Chester
As always an excellent lesson on how to keep our gardens in shape with or without the "chop". John, what is that exquisite tree or shrub with the layers of white flowers that was behind you as you completed your pruning? It's stunning! I'm wondering if it will grow in Zone 9 here in Sacramento, CA.
I am a gardener of let's not and say we did John, every year I plan to move something every year I leave it.
Hi John, always happy to watch your videos ❤
He has so much energy. It’s catching. Got a magical quality to him. John your tall yews are mighty fine in the middle circle bed there.
I would pay money to see you just talk. Very entertaining 😂
Thanks John, love the channel
You are incredibly wise!
Love that Dryopteris affinis ‘Cristata The King’. I need something like that for a shady spot. How fast it grows?
Entertaining as usual!
Brilliant as always. I have removed P. Polymorpha already……your previous remarks about this plant made me look again at it’s possible aggressive nature. Deep, thick spreading roots convinced me I did the right thing John. I will look again at Chelsea chopping more plants tomorrow…..I found last year I produced sturdier dahlias by cutting back the more vigorous ones in late May/early June.
Gentle gardening is definitely not a thing. 😅😂
Title is hilarious
I sit and drool at your lush borders, from Australia, but the thalictrum why chop off the flowers now? Was it to stop seedlings or reduce height for a plant that won’t fall over?
You're the best!
OHHHHHHH!!!!’ Check the weeds!!!
FUNNY!!!!
Hi John, can I ask what the beautiful layered white flowering tree or shrub is behind you when you are chopping (24:57) in clip?
Will the thalictrum del. you cut in the end actually still flower later in the summer?
Yes it will
@@johnlordssecretgarden thanks grabbing my scissors :)
Thanks for the reminder to chop my several varieties of Solidago.
Do you think that in Ireland, with as much rain as you say you usually get and the then cloudy skies, your garden is really not the equivalent of a full sun garden here in the Northeastern USA? Your videos are done in full sun and your plants are thriving. Would these same plants thrive in part sun here in much of the USA where we have very hot and dry summers, and as this year, dry Spring?
We also cannot get many of the perennials you grow in your garden, except from specialty nurseries that require shipping of tiny plants☹️
What is that tall plant with white spires that has a chap standing beside it as soon as the video starts?
Same here with Joe people weed. I swear I'll move it this winter. My hated weeds are oak,hazel,ash,walnut,Hawthorne,holly,.....I'll never get rid of the Jupiter's beard verbena,tobacco,calendula,CARDOONS!!...Zone 8b PNW. Just have to chop it!
❤ dostum seni uzun yıllardır takipteyim ama videoları bir türlü Türkçe yapamıyorum.dil kısmına Türkçe seçeneği de eklesen çok iyi olur.cicekleri benim kadar seven bir tek sen varsın sanirim😊
Please what is the low pink flower behind the red knautia?
What is the weeping burgundy leafed tree at the 9:38 mark? Stunning garden!
Weeping beech?
You and the China girl are a good match!
Hi John
Not a video without your handy pick axe 😉
