Anna, love the pots! I live in East Tennessee also, I have dianthus firewitch, it loves full sun. Highly recommend it! It turns into a rug, a beautiful rug!😂. Mine r probably 15 years old and they have spread all around my other perennials. And they smell incredible! God bless, John 3:16
As I was watching this video, all I could think about was how much work you and Ernie did last spring. It’s really coming along nicely. I don’t think you’ll see much of the ground because those flowers are gonna take off with all the blooms and everything it’s gonna be gorgeous.
Hi Anna🌺 . What a beautiful work at back yard garden it looks so pretty and purpule and the pink flowers are going to be amazing in your garden . Have a great day .🌻🌺🌻
The pots are goals!!! Next time don't waste all that soil.fill the bottom with the plastic nursery containers upside down so that you take up space then fill with soil 👍🏻
@athomewithanna. I've always wanted to incorporate pots in my front yard. I'm pretty creative but the pots just freeze my brain lol ups looks amazing! I'm gonna push myself to play 💯🤗
I put some old bricks at the bottom of my large planters before adding soil to fill in space so I don’t waste too much soil. As long as the plants your planting stay small and don’t have a deep root system it works great!
Hi Anna! I can just see how beautiful your garden is going to look! The pink, purple, white and green will look so amazing! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hi Anna. I am so glad to see you get that grass out of the ground and into pots. Ernie is correct about them. I have them in my yard and they do get huge and take over everything. I learned the hard way and now it is a constant struggle😂. Everything looks so good and I love that purple! Great job and I can not wait for the end result❤️
Thank you! Yes, I'm happy he got home that the next day so we could come up with a plan as I wanted them in my garden so bad! Gardening is a new lesson daily lol
Anna, you and your Hubby has done a great job in your garden and I know it will look very pretty when it all blooms. Thanks for sharing and have a great day.
Anna everything looks so beautiful. You and Ernie have worked hard and you will be rewarded with the beauty as things grow. I so wish I could work in my yard like that. Nowadays I just have containers on my deck that I can take care of myself. By the way I will have surgery again as soon as the current infection clears up. They have decided to go in through my back straight to the kidney to get the large stone. That way I will have to have the least amount of time under anesthesia which is a concern with my other health issues. Appreciate your prayers. Love in Christ
Good Morning Anna and Ernie...I love all the new flowers...I gravitate towards blue and purple flowers...I bought several blue Hydrangeas and bought some soil amendments to turn my existing Hydrangeas blue, hoping it works !! The grasses look great in the pots !! Y'all have a great weekend ⚜️❤️💐❤️⚜️
Hey Friend, Happy Friday. It’s amazing to see which plants did well in the winter and which ones didn’t do well. 😮 I’m always enjoying seeing what kind of plants/flowers you’re adding to to your garden next. ❤ I have been enjoying watching the garden journey and hard work that you and Ernie put into your garden. I love seeing things that you are going to do the same and change about your garden for this year. ❤🥰🦋
Anna I love the grasses in the white pots that’s a great idea. I will be doing grasses in pots this year. Your garden will be glorious when it blooms out. Purple and pink flowers will be very pretty.
I love how y'all work together. So jealous! Have you ever watched Hortube? He is so knowledgeable about plants and feeding the soil. I believe he had a nursery for 30+ yrs and is a certified landscaper. The grass in the pots looks great. Such a good solution.
Wow, the plants you choose are so pretty togheter. I´m creating a cottage garden myself (I´m on it for about 4 years). And as I constantly get new inspiration it will never be finished. 😅Happy gardening! Hugs from Germany
I put a large pot in the center of my flower bed and created a solar water fountain feature. Pinterest has great non-electric water garden ideas. I got my solar fountain from Amazon $14.99 and it works great!
Wow Anna, your garden is going to look so beautiful. I'm glad I found you! We're up in MN and we're just starting to think of getting out there with a rake! We had such a strange, but lovely super mild Winter, but the ground is still pretty cold. I love to garden and it's such an exciting time!! I know I'll love your channel!!
Anna, I always enjoy your gardening videos. I'm not sure if you realize that every time you put your hand in front of the camera, when showing us something in the garden, your camera focuses on your hand. Because it focuses on your hand, we can't see what you're actually trying to show us, and it's very distracting. We want to see your beautiful garden, although your hands are beautiful too.😊 I look forward to more of your gardening videos. Oh, great decision on moving those grasses. They do get very large. Ty
Love all of your content.❤ this video is so inspirational. Just purchased a home with a nice size flat backyard and no garden beds. This provides great inspiration to create beautiful spaces❤❤
Thank you gale! 😊 Here is the tool he uses www.lowes.com/pd/Corona-EdgeMASTER-5-8-in-Carbon-steel-Multipurpose-garden-hand-tool/1000457447?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-sol-_-ggl-_-CRP_SHP_PLA_SOL_Online_E-F-_-1000457447-_-online-_-0-_-0&gad_source=1&gclsrc=ds
So inspired by your gardening videos! Can you please share what brand of edger your husband uses? It appears to make quick work of edging the garden beds!

Yup landscape fabric for me is only used to kill weeds to make a new flower bed or under rocks cuz I don’t want the rocks to go under the soil as I’m stepping on them. I actually would rather use cardboard to kill weeds or grass for a new flower bed. Also adding compost around the plants every spring is important and having landscape fabric make it difficult to improve the soil.
Beautiful Anna &Ernie,I love how everything looks. Your almost done with your garden an I haven’t been able to start here in upstate NY, I can’t wait as you are giving me so much inspiration. Thanks for sharing ❤Barb
Did you use tubing with holes through your pots? If so, you are supposed to use tubing without holes to go up through your pots and use the tubing with holes to lay on top of the soil.
Anna, I'm just getting into gardening and have very few tools, when my eye caught the tool Ernie is using to cut the edges. What is it called and where he'd buy it? ;) please
Here is the link to the one we bought. www.lowes.com/pd/Corona-EdgeMASTER-5-8-in-Carbon-steel-Multipurpose-garden-hand-tool/1000457447?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-sol-_-ggl-_-CRP_SHP_PLA_SOL_Online_E-F-_-1000457447-_-online-_-0-_-0&gad_source=1&gclsrc=ds Enjoy your garden!
You better be careful digging around in mulched areas with no gloves on. I know its hard to plant with gloves on but move the mulch out of the way and dig around alittle with a garden tool before sticking hands in there. Years ago, I was removing some weeds that had grown on top of mulch and I had to dig into the mulch just a little...when suddenly I saw something squiggle up out of the mulch!! I moved back because it didnt look right, got my shovel and dug into the mulch. There was not one but a bunch of baby COPPERHEAD SNAKES. They say the babies are more venomous than the adults. So just be careful everyone and know that snakes will lay eggs in mulch and theyll hatch out. I always have to Thank God for protection ❤❤❤ amen
I don't believe it allows the soil to breathe. This is just an instinct. Your garden is a living thing, and just like all living things, it needs to breathe. 😁 again, my opinion haha
So inspiring! You give me so many great ideas that I want to try out in my garden. This garden has all my colors and textures. I love the idea of the grass in the pot, I have a pool and the grass would look nice around it. You may want to watch a video by Laura from the garden answer, she has a great video on butterfly bushes, they aren't big on over watering and fertilizer, check her out. I didn't catch the name of that purple Salvia you planted, could you let me know what it's called. I enjoy all your videos, love your excitement for gardening, it's contagious! Keep on digging!
Thank you for hanging out with me today! I hope you leave inspired! ❤
Girl you are nothing out of the park over there 😊
Thank you!
Beautiful!
Thank you, Donna! ❤️
Looks so pretty! You and Ernie work so well together!

What a great idea for perennial grass!!! In a pot I am so going to do that too. Thank you for that great idea. I love your videos soooo much.❤
I'm so happy I have you an idea. I love the grass in pots better! They make such a statement! Thank you, Cathy! ❤️

The pots are goals!!! Next time don't waste all that soil.fill the bottom with the plastic nursery containers upside down so that you take up space then fill with soil 👍🏻
Thanks for the tip!

@yeyatatiana2076 That's the fun of gardening! Playing. If you hate it move it. That's my rule lol

I am loving the pink and purple color them you are going with Anna. 😊❤😊🌸🦋
Thank you, Maria! I can't wait to see it all merge!
Some plants just do the flop after planting when it’s hot. They should be just fine. Pretty!
They are doing great now. I assumed so! Thank you! I love all the help I recieve here!❤️
Looks so beautiful! 🌸🌸🌸 Have a wonderful day!
Thank you, Stacy! You too!
It’s gonna be beautiful when everything is bloomed

Thank you babe!
Anna everything looks so beautiful. You and Ernie have worked hard and you will be rewarded with the beauty as things grow. I so wish I could work in my yard like that. Nowadays I just have containers on my deck that I can take care of myself. By the way I will have surgery again as soon as the current infection clears up.

Oh gosh, Donna! I will add you to my prayer list! I'm glad you are able to enjoy some sort of gardening though!
Looks very pretty

Wow, the plants you choose are so pretty togheter. I´m creating a cottage garden myself (I´m on it for about 4 years). And as I constantly get new inspiration it will never be finished. 😅Happy gardening! Hugs from Germany
It's a fun garden for sure, and I can see how it will continue to grow! I'm constantly adding!
I would love to see a followup video in one month, then two months. This was fun to watch! I just found your channel today. 😊
Oh I'll be doing them monthly! Thank you so much!
Anna. Have you considered uniting the beds. Removing the thin area of grass. Replacing with stepping stones But it looks beautiful
I mentioned in a earlier video that we are planning on adding stones there. Our maybe I thought it and never mentioned it haha.. But that's the plan!
I put a large pot in the center of my flower bed and created a solar water fountain feature. Pinterest has great non-electric water garden ideas. I got my solar fountain from Amazon $14.99 and it works great!

Your garden will be beautiful!
I think so too!

Try using Preen in your garden beds after weeding. It really does help to keep the weeds at bay if you haven’t heard of it 😊
Thank you! I will!

How often do you reapply the Shake and Feed?
@valerierandall3640 Every two weeks. Not to the light feeders though. Only heavy feeders.
Beautiful gardens! Love it all! Where are the pots from?
Thank you! We have a store here called old time pottery. Got them on sale for about 50 dollars ea!
I love watchen you, you make me want to get outside and do mine but being 7 months pregnant i cant move that great lol maybe next year!!!!
