Such a beautiful garden! Thank you so much for filming the tour for those of us who couldn't visit in person! 😀
What an amazing place! Thank you so much for taking us along for the ride!
Now something like THIS would be my dream garden, so many marigolds and other members of the sunflower family. Along with peonies and stuff...
Same here! I grew so many marigolds this year! The vanilla were so pretty!
the word of the day is HUGE and well deserved to be. These gardens are magnificent and there is so much and so many beautiful flora. Proven Winners definitely chose the right place for their show. Thank you so much for taking us with you. This place is now high on my bucket list
And perfect gardening music to boot!! Thank you! You made us feel like we were there with you!!!
Jenny, thanks for sharing videos from your trip to Mackinac. You always look so cute in your outfits. I love the way you are always appropriately dressed, weather you are digging in the garden, or dressed up for a special occasion.
Oh I love the way you showcased and slowly scan that beautiful front flower bed! It must just be stunning in person.
Fantastic!
This looks like such a magical trip! I'm excited for your whole family to be able to make this trip and you even share with us! The beautiful colors and textures! The huge topiary of the horses and carriage were spectacular! And that dreamy secret garden, ohh!
Thank you Jenny and jerry one can tell that you're having a good time at Mackinac Island and so am I via your videos. It's such a beautiful and peaceful place. Thanks for pointing out the plants and their names as you go along.
My husband and I were so thrilled to meet you and Jerry in person at the Nursery this weekend! What a treat for our 2nd anniversary weekend! We love our US "Sassy Frog" as well as a few beautiful perennials we picked up. You guys are our favs! Love from your Santee friends! ❤️
It was such a pleasure meeting y’all! Happiest of anniversaries to you 💓
Beautiful! After the dry and hot summer and the struggle to keep things alive I had decided to stop trying. After seeing all the beauty I’m thinking about next years plantings. Thanks Jenny and Jerry for the tour!!!!
Oh, how fantastic you were able to make this trip! We love the garden tours! Thanks for showing so many beautiful sights! What a place! 😀
Fun tour. 🌟 Jerry did a great job filming and Jenny is a natural garden guide and spokesperson. Thank you for all the information!
I agree ya gotta give creative credits to the man behind the lens... Jerry is a huge part of the success of delivering us a great pice of art work !✨🤍
Jenny your "take me alongs" on this amazing island, have been so great! Thank YOU!
Just beautiful! The ending secret garden was magical! Thank you!
I had no idea that Mackinac Island was so breathtakingly beautiful! Wish I had visited during my traveling years. But now at least I get to see some of that beauty watching your videos. Thanks.
Jenny and Jerry, what an unbelievably beautiful place, one day I hope I'll be able to visit there. Jenny, did your wonderful momma and daddy go with you guys on this trip, or have they been to Mackinac Island before? Just seeing the huge grins on your faces made me wish I was there also! I loved watching this video. ~Margie😊💐🦋🐴
Live 2.5 hours south of bridge so have been on the island a number of times. As a wood turners, hubby was so excited to see the lilac trees.
As a Michigan resident my family visited the island 45 years ago. I’m glad Jenny you took us on a tour, the older I get I realize I’m a home body and don’t like traveling.
Thank you for taking time out of your fun week at Mackinac Island. Excellent video. It was a thrill to see all the beauty there!
Jenny you just have a welcoming way to carry and hold the Best conversations with Everyone your with! Mr.Jack Barnwell and you were so entertaining to watch together! “Chomping at the bit”.. and you right on que-“badata!!” almost had me spitting my coffee out! Best video interview done on Mackinac Island hands down!! Great job Jenny and Jerry✨🤍🥰
Thank you for sharing, good luck always and keep the spirit, I will always support you ❤️❤️❤️
What a fabulous trip for you and the family ... you must be in heaven, surrounded by all that beautiful flora - each little turn along the path revealing another breathtaking space. So happy you are getting to experience Mackinac and even happier you are sharing it all with us !!! thanks ever so much ...
Hi Jenny 🌺what abeautiful plants and flowers in mackinac Island It's amazing and fantastic land escape Have awonderful time you and your family and enjoy your trip🦋🌻
Would love to stay is this beautiful grand hotel, I love the secret garden, everything looks amazing! thanks for the tour!
Unfortunately, most people can’t afford to stay at the Grand Hotel unless you can get some special discounts. I used to visit the Island every summer back in the 50’s and 60’s because my father was friends with the manager of the Grand Hotel pool. He would arrange for lodging at one of the special B&B’s for our family. I love the Island, the gardens, horses and atmosphere! A very special place.
OK!!! now that's a garden tour. You guys know how to do it right. After watching your tour I have decided to use more annuals next year. The color seems to make a garden stretch out the season. thank you Jenny and Jerry!!!!!
NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE!!
Jenny,
One of my fav romance movies of all time, "Somewhere in Time" w/ the late Christopher Reeve & Jane Seymour, was filmed @ The Grand Hotel! It's a MUST WATCH!!! ❤
The most unique vacation my husband and I have taken! Really enjoyed every bit of the island, and of course the Grand Garden Show was just that- GRAND! Mackinaw island is checked off the bucket list! You gave a great tour on this video! Almost did the beauty justice - only better view is in person!
What a beautiful tour and Jenny you are do a magnificent job of letting us know all the names of everything! The horse and carriage were awesome and geraniums are one of my favorite flowers!
Thank you Jenny and Jerry for a fantastic tour of this beautiful hotel gardens.
Enjoy, and have fun!
Wow!

My Daddy used to work at Mackinac Island summers while he was in high school and college. It's a very special place!
#puremichigan
Oh the stories he holds I bet are priceless ✨🤍
@@alw5101 he used to have to grate the horseradish. Worse than peeling onions.
@@oxwoman8ooh nooo what a terrible job but I’m sure those who ate all that horseradish with theirPrime rib or Shrimp Cocktail appreciated beyond words... I love horseradish myself!
Great video from your favorite nephew. That place is gorgeous
Such Elegance and grace ! Thanks for sharing your family adventure with us . Enjoy beautiful Mackinaw Island ❤
Thank you, Jenny and Jerry for another awesome tour!!!! Enjoy the rest of your trip!!! Hugs!:)
That was really a lovely tour..thanks for sharing!
My husband and I were there about 10 years ago! I would love to go back but my husband says no way would I get him back on the ferry to cross the lake again! It is such a magical island!
I’m with your husband, there is no way I’m crossing the bridge, once was enough 45 years ago.
Thanks for sharing 😊this was beautiful to watch.
Just gorgeous!!🧡
Thank you for the tour. Such a beautiful place.

Beautiful 🌸💕🌸
It’s beautiful.🙂
I love the secret gardens & the horse & carriage! Hope you had a great time!
Jenny I love the tour but I also think we could make this video into a drinking game.
A shot for every time you say Huge/Gorgeous or both 😆😆😆
But I honestly love your enthusiasm and I could feel how excited you are xxx
So funny!every time I watch Jenny I say, “next time I’m getting pen and paper to keep total of all the Gorgeous…just fantastic😂😂 she is just too cute with her excitement (I’m sort of like that when talking about plants and quilting)🌻🌻(KH)
Awesome video!! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Love, love, love! Such a beautiful place and on my bucket list! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for sharing. Love seeing all the color and plants. Great video.
Thank you for your fun tour! It was reassuring to see how many plants were going to be placed just for the show, because it reminds me that regular gardens don’t grow quite so perfectly.
A million yeses!!!!! These videos are meant to inspire, not to compare them to our spaces. Enjoy your space & have fun!!!!
So glad u guys got to visit it as a family. The beauty is spectacular. Thanks I have been there once a while ago. I’m going to try to go to the next garden show
Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 🤗👍
Amazing! Thank you Jenny and Jerry!
Imagine being grown JUST for the PW Garden Show. Show quality! 😍 Thx for sharing your trip with us. Beautiful tour. ❤️
Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 👍🤠
Are you going to show the seminar with you and Laura speaking? Would love to see that.
Lindos mundo..
Amazing! This has been on my bucket list !! I just imagine the smell is incredible!!
I bet it was nice strolling through these gardens and not sweat to death. (I'm in North Carolina Zone 8A)
It was GLORIOUS!!!!! 😍
Love the video, the gardens and hotel. I now want to go back and watch the 1980s movie Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reed and Jane Seymour.
I would love to visit here to get inspiration for gardening
Very nice ❤️❤️
I lived in southern Michigan for over 10 years. Summer in Michigan is beautiful! Of course, southern Michigan is warmer, but flowers are still gorgeous! Glad you all enjoyed your time. I bet your mom enjoyed all the gardens.
Hello Jennifer, what a lovely comment 😊 if I may ask where are you located and how's the weather over there??
@@jimmyhilton5349 I live in hot, humid NC.
@@jenniferhooks2454 Wow I guess you're not a fan of hot weather
@@jenniferhooks2454 well am from Dallas Texas currently in the Gulf of Mexico working, and the weather over here is 17 degree
@@jenniferhooks2454 anyway how are you and your lovely family doing??
I live in Michigan. I’ve only been to Mackinac twice in my life. Laura from Garden Answers was there too. Did you run into each other? I hope you enjoyed our great state of Michigan!
Great camera work Jerry!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wooooow
I have a crush on Jack! Lol
Loved your tour and was wondering why they don’t have more of the blue hydrangeas!??? On the northeast coast they are everywhere! Perhaps it’s the salty air? Such gorgeous gardens of color, and especially loved the secret garden! I’ve moved off the coast and have landed in NH- my first summer into fall & winter- big observation and note taking for sure!!! Of course I planted tons of perennials for next year- my take away from this tour is the grasses popping out amongst the flowers- surprisingly I loved them! Thank you! Cindy B-
Jack said in another video the winters are very harsh. They're a zone 4 or 5. I'm in Minneapolis and can attest to the harsh winters wreaking havoc on plants that are borderline.
I planted, my 2nd round, of blue hydrangea (Bloomstruck) and fingers crossed they make it next year.
Word of the day …… HUGE !! 🤣🤣🤣
So so love this tour!!!! I know this is crazy question but can you reply to me what type shoes you have on in this video I have been so searching for just this type!!!! And where did you purchase!!!??thanks so much Jenny ... judy from Pensacola Fl
These are a pair of On tennis shoes. So incredibly comfortable!!!! I just ordered them online directly from them. www.on-running.com/en-us/explore/womens/shoes
Jenny, How do they keep the Cosmos so short? Is it the variety? Mine reach 5’ and taller but I would prefer they be shorter. Can they be cut back? One variety I tried this year is 7’ and taller. It’s stalk is like the diameter of a corn stalk and hollow. I don’t think that would cut back well. I definitely will not be reaching for that seed packet next year!
So beautiful 🤩 is the secret garden to everyone or just guests of the Grand Hotel?
It’s open to everyone ♥️
🙋
You wear the cutest clothes, love all your tops! Where do you shop?😊
The trim on it looked especially nice while standing in front of the fountain.
what is the name of the one cascade plant that you show at minute 8:40? Thanks!
Surely you met up with Laura and Aron!!!
Have you watched Somewhere in Time?
I swear that secret garden at the end of the video looks like the cover of a Jehovah Witness magazine! 🌻😂🌿
Jenny,
The Grand Hotel is HUUUGE! Everything @ The Grand Hotel is HUUUGE! If I had dollar for every time you said "HUUUGE.," I'd have a HUUUGE number of dollars, lol! 😉😉😉 It' s ok--put a HUUUGE smile on my face! 😃
If you’ve ever been to Mackinac then you’ll understand my HUGE excitement! 😂
Wish you and Laura could have done a video together
Hopefully next time! Our schedules were so jammed packed that it was hard for us to record together this trip.
It is a beautiful place and we were fortunate to visit the garden show in 2019. Now I know I need to get back there. Thanks for sharing!
