I'm glad to see that you didn't go all muted colors in your front yard. You're known for and we love you for your clown college design. It's refreshing to see somebody who's not afraid to step outside the box. If we wanted to see a yard with pinks, lavenders, and other pastel muted colors, we could watch every other gardener on UA-cam.
Jim! Leave the fence AS IS!!
It looks gorgeous with the house. So natural. Love your garden and sweet Holly ❤
Paint the fence white..that would be so pretty. It would match the house perfectly.
Your fence would look great in a darkish grey translucent stain/paint, the plants would look great against it and it ties in with the roof. Did I say that out loud?! I know whatever you choose will be the right thing. Everything is looking so so good!
Regarding your rolling front fence: I think the people with the best sense of what best look can be achieved, and by what treatment, are you and Stephany.
Those who live with the forms, in the light as it changes, traversing the space, those who feel the mood of the household, the plants living there, the community & the neighborhood -- have the best sense of how to treat every element.
If you were stumped, you guys would ask us. Until you do, we might best keep our opinions for times asked-for, or when needed at home.
Holly's stompiness on the flowers? Reminds me of my dear mother.
She was the smartest, most capable, most intuitive, most well-mannered person I have ever known.
When she came to live with me, at age 90, by 91, she began to lose some of the finer sensibilities. She would appear in her chair in the living room in only her underwear and a robe, not fully fastened. And, there were 2 grandsons, 1 preteen and 1 teen, living here with us (I had both❤), plus my grown male children would simply walk in, no appt needed, at any time of the day or evening.
She would NEVER have done that before, at any time, in the previous 70 years I knew her.
I had to refold all of the satiny, silky garments in her underwear drawers daily, as she would thoroughly mess them up, every day, as if on purpose. I would ask her, "Are you looking for something you're not finding?" They all fit, didn't know why she had to fumble through ALL of them, every day.
I would have bet $500, a few years ago, that she would NEVER have done that. She has always been fastidious; no longer that.
She's now more like a 7 yr old boy. Coughs w/o covering her mouth. That mannerism was the first slippage I saw, when she was about 87. Heartbreaking for us, my sister only lasted 5 weeks, and she had a spouse who did all the cooking and shopping, ran errands, provided compansionship during tough emotions.
It took maturity, serenity, a lot of unconditional love and acceptance to achieve balance in light of my mother's new-old self.
Tks for sharing your life with your mom with us!! I lost my mom 7 yrs ago as of today!! I can imagine the family dynamics you’re dealing with and the intense patience you’re demanded. At least your mom is still with you!!
To me, regardless of how hard it was to care for my late mom during the last days and months of her life, I can never pay back what she has sacrificed for us. I’d do anything and gladly shorten my life in exchange for a longer life for my mom!! May God bless you, your mom and all your family and loved ones with great health, peace and happiness!!
Jim is so patient when I retell my mom stories. I feel like I can relate most things to looking at it through her eyes. Thank you for your thoughts ❤
I took inspiration from that limbing up shrubs video and did some pruning on my shrubs.
Jim is right about the Lil' Raspberry butterfly bush being more vigorous. Last year I received four of the Lil' Candy butterfly bushes by mistake so I called Plants by Mail to report it and they told me to keep them. We planted some in our garden and the raspberry colored one was definitely more vigorous with great color when compared with Lil' Grape. It was a nice unexpected present.
I was super late, but I sowed some Summer Jewels Red Salvia a few weeks ago, and they have started sprouting. I am even more excited for them after seeing yours in bloom!
Greetings from Brampton, Ontario, Canada. The garden is stunning Jim! Good luck with the open Garden. I’m sure it will be a huge success. Wish I lived closer. Love your channel and the wealth of knowledge and inspiration you provide for us!
I finally got some good rain in my Tampa, Florida garden on Monday! After two months of bone dry, ridiculously hot weather, it was such a blessing! Your yard is looking great and colorful!
Jim, I have a 15 year-old Schnauzer and it is so hard to watch them age. Hopefully, we will get a few more years.
Our Molly is probably in her last year. She's a big dog and got as a rescue, not sure of her age. Giving her all the quality time I can. She's recently gotten anxious about being left home alone so I adjusted my schedule for her. Never gets any easier, but they're worth it.
@@katiekane5247 my Schnauzer was a rescue as well. I got him when he was 7. Oddly, he was given up by a family that owns one of the largest nurseries in Florida. He had terrible fear aggression. Now, he is so rickety, he can barely stand, hear or see. I pray I awaken one day and he is just gone. I had to put my 11 year-old (adopted) down last year due to renal failure. I am just now able to talk about him. He had my heart. I hope you have a less traumatic farewell with your baby.
I have had three schnauzers. I loved them all. And my pup, scamper, adored Jim.
I have had three schnauzers ❤. In fact, one of my schnauzers Jim stole the heart from. He became her favorite human very quickly!! Scamper ❤
Love your garden and how sweet you are to your dog, so nice to see!🌿🐾🌿
Everything is looking beautiful. Thank you Jim and Stephanie for sharing !!
Southern California we have had an extremely mild couple of years. Cool summers and temperate winters. We did not get many days over 90 last year, here outside LA. Crazy, though I am definitely not complaining.
Thank you for sharing your garden. I always find inspiration in your videos!
I appreciate all the salvias that you use. I don't see that many gardens use them like you do.
Hello, thank you so much, Mr Jim Putnam and Stephany, for visiting Ram Giberson Channel, garden and manctioning on HurtTub, Channel. 🙏.
Love the fence as is ❤
Our 3 new Abelias have exploded in growth since mid-March. One of them is Twist of Lime, which has the cultivar name of Abelia 'Hopleys'. Funny thing, Miss Lemon has the same cultivar name! This was confirmed by someone at Plant Development, who received the message I had sent to Southern Living Plants regarding this. Abelia 'Hopleys' has those two trademark names. We now have one of each, so it will be interesting to see how they compare after a couple of seasons.
So pretty, love your channel, I learn so much, Thank You.
i hope to visit to NC (maybe next season) just to visit all the public gardens / arboretums. There are so many cool gardens in NC , I am jealous ..
Same here. I'm in TN and planning a trip next yr...dealing with illness this yr and cannot travel
I love your front fence. It is exactly what I want for my garden. I know that whatever you do with it in the future will look wonderful!
The way you talked about Holly…ever since she turned 15…typical teenager, lol! Just kidding, I know she’s a grown woman 😂! How does one sign up for next year’s open garden? So nice of you to open your garden to everyone to see the fruits of both your and Steph’s labor! I would love for you to paint the fence the same white you did on your house. With some dahlias spilling over from behind the fence! I’m getting ready to host a Barbie birthday party. I have been working so hard trying to get the garden ready. I’m glad you mentioned that hair cuts take about 3 weeks to flush out. I always learn so much from clown college 😂! The dogwood is so stunning!
Match fence to roof color. White fence nice too. Or if you add black lighting to the house, then a black fence could tie in, since windows are reflective as black. 😊
I like the front fence just the way it is now.
Me too I think it goes well with the house.
Hi Holly
I love little Holly .Stomppy or not that girl is the jewel of the garden
Your garden looks amazing! I wish I could make it up to Raleigh to see when you open it up. I’ll just have to depend on you to keep up your UA-cam! Thanks for all the information and inspiration!
Michigan is getting rain BUT it ALWAYS goes north or south of us 🥺💐💚🙃 I guess I should probably change that statement a bit we do get a sprinkle here and there but nothing compared to what we could use. It also seems that when we do get a bit of rain versus when I water the plants they pop overnight ! Of course the weeds REALLY pop too. 💐💚🙃
Looking Good ! Love your sweet dog !
Thanks for another inspiring garden tour! It's so nice of you to allow people to visit your garden... I'm happy for all who will be seeing all the beauty in person. :)
I love your garden
I always have volunteers on the Summer Jewel Salvia and had some of the red show back up this year. Still cool nights in north Georgia but very intense sun when it's out. It's been hard to rip out the Viola's, still pretty.
Absolutely amazing!
Hi Jim and Steph! Your channel continues to be a great source of information and help to gardeners everywhere. The garden looks amazing; the visitors who walk through are in for a wonderful experience. Thanks for all you do to provide content and beauty!
Man I wish i could find a carolina midnight loropetalum tree form, i love the one you have
Plants by mail had it from Flowerwood. The link is below. Hope it’s still in stock. It was during mothers day
What happened to the water feature?
Agree on the weather comment. I’ve lived in NC all my life and this has been the weirdest/longest spring I’ve ever seen. It got a bit hot today…wish it would rain a bit more.
The garden looks beautiful
Jim and Steph, I am counting the days to your "garden" tour. Everything is so beautiful!!
Great additions thanks for the inspirations🌸… another saved video 🤗
Love all your videos! Do you do any kind of tick preventitive in your yard? They are so bad here in Ohio this year. Every time i go in my beds i pull ticks off.
Beautiful. Your videos have been an inspiration for along time. Thanks for sharing your journey along the way 😊
TY...
That dogwood is gorgeous. I don’t see them here is Texas. Is it too hot here?
I bought lil raspberry last year and put it in a pot. Loved it! Planted it the ground and bought another for a pot.
Looking great!
So beautiful!
I love your videos... I'm learning a lot from you. I would love to know the name of the plant with the red flowers that you talk about near the beginning of the video. It's gorgeous!! I'm want to add more red to my garden and it would fit in perfectly. Thanks so much!!!
Hello from Mississippi! (Zone 8b)
I’m planning a trip to your area next spring so I can shop at Big Bloomers.
Quick question: In a recent storm my 3 year old Rising Son Redbud had a branch twisted off all the way to the trunk. I pruned off the branch. Although I love the tree its layered habit results in very heavy long limbs. Any advice on pruning to avoid this happening again?
PS I have learned so much from your videos. I watch them all day long. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Jim,
Fading eye sight could result in Holly being more "stompy in the flowers." She might be navigating her way more & more using her sense of smell, Perhaps even touch, rather than sight.
BE🌳UT🎋F🌸L‼️
Thank 🙏 you to all the gardeners for sporting and subscribing and subscribed. Please 🙏 ❤❤❤sathu
Holly is such a doll. I think the front fence looks fine but im sure whatwver you do will look beautiful. I had a fence alng side my driveway that had tp be painted everu few years. I had it replaced and it is staying natural, i liked it better painted but its just too much work.
Interesting here in Michigan we’ve been oddly normal/cool I guess 😂 but we have had plenty of moisture which is welcome. Only 2 days that officially hit 90 degrees in May and nights have been in the mid to low 50s still some in the 60s and the occasional in the 70s. I’m just wondering when the switch is going to flip
What is the ground cover on the left of the path, leading to the porch? It’s chartreuse on the screen. It’s very pretty.
Is that a black crepe myrtle bush in the pot near the purple basil?
Yes
Hey Jim I have a major problem with acorn nut I have 3 massive trees in my yard and I rake all year this last year I just let my go and I try mulching cause it is mix in leaves, can I use it for mulch with the old died dry nuts in it ,I wish you could come a see my yard it is crazy her I need help leaves ,nuts, oh and Carolina creeper everywhere Help me Jim I love flowers please come and tell me what to do my husband said you are the person to tell me that to do
That dog wood is crazy
What is the salvia at 16:31? Your garden is exciting.
Was going to post the same question. It sure is lush! I think it's Black and Blue but would love to know for certain.
Holly please...please please ......lmaooooo I was laughing so hard. My dog comes barreling through like a bowling ball running into roses, hostas..smh.
What is the chartreuse ground cover(?) next to the Summer Jewels?
Creeping Jenny. Pretty aggressive!
Been meaning to ask…what does the ‘aecea?’ tee mean?
I subscribed to your channel and other garden channels, all these gardens are beautiful but I live in South Louisiana and a majority of the plants that I love and are beautiful are not viable for zone 9 and above, please explain what zones these plants will survive in. Thanks
Keep watching, especially the Garden Q&A on Sundays. He talks a lot about Zones. Even has a video a few months ago about what zone changes mean for the US and how you should treat that in your area.
Sweet Holly. Probably old dog dementia. Be gentle with expectations now. I just lost my two cocker spaniels, age 14 in October and age 14 1/2 two weeks ago. Been there.
So sorry friend 😭
Hello Jim
Has this Empress of China’s name changed to Mountain Moon? The scientific name seems to be the same for both. Both trees produce the same kind of fruit, both evergreen with the same characteristics.
Are they the same tree?
One more thing…are any shirts available that aren’t slim fit? We aren’t all beautiful like Stephanie.
Are your summer jewel salvias working as perennials in Raleigh?
Annuals but they do reseed a little.
Mine reseed in north Georgia but Jim's are ahead because he starts them inside under grow lights.
My Summer Jewel Red is not as full as yours.
Holly probably can’t see (or hear) as well❤
I am 45 minutes from you
I have no opinion on your fence
You're a smart man!
