October Garden Tour - My English Garden - 2023
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 жов 2023
- I take you on a guided garden tour to show what has been happening this Autumn. The tame robin joins us to show off his new plumage and to be fed.
At the end of the video I have a little quiz - I'll show some video footage of my September trip to the USA - see how many locations you can identify - some are easy and some probably only a local resident will recognise!
My English Garden is near the coast in North-West England, 1/3 of an acre (including the house) Zone 9a with sandy soil.

It's great to see you back Paul! We have missed you so much. UA-cam not the same without you. And the robin misses you too and obviously loves you! Thank you as always.
That’s so nice of you Carla. 🌸
I forgot to mention the robin… delightful and such a special relationship he or she has with you!
I really enjoy his company - the males and females look the same but I know it’s male because he brought food (often from me lol) for the female this Spring when she was on the nest.
Here are the locations - some of them are quite difficult and only recognised by residents but there are one or two famous landmarks.
I hope you enjoyed the sequence.
Needle Eye Tunnel, Needles Highway, Black hills,
Custer State Park, South Dakota
Freight train passing castle Rock, Green River. Sweetwater county, Wyoming
Old Trail Town, Cody, Wyoming where Buffalo Bill Cody created the town bearing his name.
Old Faithful geyser emits water
Yellowstone National Park Wyoming
Jenny Lake Teton National Park Wyoming named after
Jenny Leigh - a shoshone woman married to the Englishman Richard Leigh
Horse sculpture in the main square of Fort Collins, Colorado
Family of Elk, Mammoth Springs Lodges, Yellowstone Wyoming
Pronghorn in the Lamar Valley, Yellowstone
The second fastest land animal - after the cheetah
Statue of George Washington, Mount Rushmore, South Dakota
Badlands National Park South Dakota
Cowboy Boots, Cheyenne, Wyoming
Oregon Trail at Eagle Rock, Scott’s Bluff National monument, Nebraska
What was that blooming on prairie at Scott's Bluff? What a vision that must have been.
@@SB_McCollumyes, it was a poignant sight. Unfortunately I don’t know the name of these US prairie plants.
Very beautiful pictures and videos. You have a great job 😍 I could only guess the George Washington 😁
@@meggygurova7273 glad you enjoyed my videos. The Washington statue - and the others - were quite impressive.
Wow! Your “day job” is intriguing. You have shed light on the reasoning for your videos to be so professional. Love your garden and always look forward to seeing more. However, what I love most about your channel is that you share all seasons of your garden.
Thank you so much! I do enjoy how the garden - and nature - changes through the year with each season being so different and so beautiful.
Thank you for spreading positive vibes, Paul! Love your videos. They are so calming and remind that there's so much beauty in the world around us!!👍🌷🌻🌼🌱🌾🌲🌳🍁🕊
That is so nice Olga. 🌸🌻
I'm glad to see you back Mr. Paul and Mr. Robin!
Thank you Carl.
Missed the videos!
That’s nice of you - thank you.
Hello Paul. I'm glad you had an opportunity to travel and photograph parts of the US. Your skills with the camera are phenomenal.
I especially enjoy the views of your garden and your little friend the Robin. Take care.
Hi Jacqueline, thank you - it was a great trip - enjoyed every minute!
So pleased you enjoy the garden and robin. All the best.
I miss you. Please show up more often. Gorgeous garden! ❤
That’s very nice of you - thank you for the encouragement - I am looking forward to making more videos.
Great to have you back Paul. Really enjoying all of your videos here in the West of Ireland 🇮🇪
Thanks Michael - it’s appreciated.
It is so interesting to learn about your day job.
Thank you, I still get excitement from it even though I’ve been doing it for nearly 40 years.
@@paultsworldit’s said that if you enjoy your job then you never worked a day in your life!
Absolutely - but I do feel a certain pressure with my work that I don't feel when on holiday - still love it though!
I missed you Paul, yor garden is so pretty, I love your clematis. You were in very interesting places.😊😊😊
So nice of you Alicia, thank you.
Hi Paul! It was nice to see your new video and You and the Robin after a long break❤ The garden is beautiful 🏵 Your travel around the USA is impressive 🦌I watched it with great pleasure 😊
I am so pleased you enjoyed my latest video…and thank you for letting me know. 🌸
I live in Scottsbluff Nebraska and travel frequently to the places in your video. You did a wonderful job capturing it.
Glad you enjoyed the videos, my first visit to Nebraska and was very excited to see Sentinel Rock - I have read so much about the Oregon Trail and to actually stand in the place where those wagons passed by was quite moving.
Nice to see you ( and your garden) again Paul!
That’s very nice of you - thank you.
Thanks, I always enjoy your relaxing garden tours. That ‘weed’ looks like Petty Spurge. It heals basal cell carcinoma. Use with caution! It’s most welcome in my garden because I owe so much to that wonderful plant.
Thank you Kerry. At last I have a name for this plant, how interesting that you have used it as a healing agent.
Thank you for another tour of your beautiful garden. The little English robin is adorable!
Thank you - glad you enjoyed the tour - and robin.
Lovely video Paul as usual! Glad to see ur garden changes and so many of plants have grown!!! Loved the photos of ur travels to our Western US❤❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed the latest video Nadine - I had a great time in WY, SD & NE and learned a lot about your Western history.🌸
🤗 THANKS FOR THE QUIZ 🧐 I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO SEE THE WESTERN U.S. , BUT I AM HAPPY YOU DID AND SHARED IT WITH US 🤗💚💚💚
It was my first visit to these three states so I was very happy about that - I’m really glad you enjoyed the footage.
IT WAS GREAT🤗
👍🌻
Hello again Paul - so glad you're back and bringing us the joy of your garden. Thank you too for sharing your travel photos; what a day job you have!
Thank you Wendy! 🌻
You have such a special relationship with that little robin ❤️
Thank you - we’ve known each other for a year now.
You’ve been missed Paul. Your garden looks amazing. There’s a robin that comes to see us when we’re out in the garden here in Hertfordshire but he isn’t brave enough to eat mealworms from my hand yet. Guess I’ll have to be patient. ❤
That’s very nice of you Ellie.
How nice you have a robin - if the robin is about, flick a mealworm towards it - he’ll see it. I say flick because throwing tends to scare them. Slowly he’ll start expecting the food and get closer.
I say ‘he’ because I think it’s the males that tend to be keener on ‘free’ food.
Good luck
Hey! You spent part of summer over the pond with us. Welcome! Hope you had a wonderful time and from the look of your photo's you were busy. 😊
Thank you - I had a great time and always enjoy a good long road trip in the States.
The weather was perfect so I ended up getting plenty of work done. Fabulous trip.
Good to see you back Paul. I was wondering if you were okay. Garden is looking really lovely and the Hydrangeas have loved the rain this summer and I too love the arch you've created with the Viburnum and I've always liked your Bill Mckenzie Clematis. Even its seed heads are spectacular. I expect your little Robin missed you when you were away. Mine has disappeared but a new one (assume it's a different one as his red feathers look unkempt) has arrived but keeps his distance. Thanks for showing us some of the places that most of us won't get to visit and I hope you enjoyed your time away even though most of it was for work.
Feels good to be back Wendy. Fortunately I had neighbours who came in every day and fed the robin - they are now saying they miss him! He’s anybody’s for a mealworm so probably didn’t realise it wasn’t me lol
My robin has his new smart Winter coat, hopefully, now Winter is on its way you’ll be able to make friends with your new robin - mealworms at the ready!
I really enjoyed this trip - it all went well and I got plenty of footage plus all new places for me so really interesting.
It's great to have you back. I was gardening this afternoon, and a Robin came into my garden, and I thought of you, so I was so pleased to see your video. Nice to see a lot of late colour.
I was not very good at the 'quiz!'
I must admit the quiz was rather hard unless you’ve just visited - or live there!
It’s so nice that every garden seems to have a robin - thank you for your greeting.
Hi Paul, lovely 2 see u again, great vlog of your tour amazing, lovely to know what you do, only just got the garden tucked up for winter as we've had terrible flooding but back 2 some dry again thank goodness. Your gardens always lovely luv the robin. Take care ❤
Hello Helen, thank you for your nice comment.
Pity you had so much rain in such a short time - quite extraordinary. Big blast of rain here on Wednesday…at least it might warm up a bit here! All the best 🌸
Hi Paul . Well come back . Your garden looks amazing in october. I lovet . robin is asmart and aspecial bird .
Your journy around the world is interesting and your photos are beautiful . Have anice day .
Hello Lina, thank you - glad you like my garden and photos, it’s appreciated.
Hello Paul, welcome back, the other day I was thinking about your garden, I was really looking forward to a review of your garden in the fall. The garden is beautiful with lots of greenery and blooming hydrangeas. The robin, as always, pleases with its appearance. Excellent shots from the trip, thanks to very interesting and beautiful places. Thanks again, I'm looking forward to the next video about tropics from your garden, your fan from Kazakhstan.
Thank you so much - glad you enjoyed the video. Greetings to Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Absolutely LOVE the slow mo replay of your Robin friend snatching the meal worm! :D How exciting!
It certainly is a thrill each time he launches himself towards the mealworm. We rehearsed that slo-mo a few times till I got the focussing right and he snatched the mealworm from the correct side for the framing of the shot. We both enjoyed the process!
Amazing! I'm certainly enjoying your interactions in your videos, it is quite special to have a bird friend who trusts you so much : ) @@paultsworld
It certainly is - glad you enjoy the robin. He’s been around for just on a year now.
Seeing again dreamland!
Thank you - it’s one of my favourite times of the year. 🌻
Thank you. The Robin is adorable.
He’s been a daily companion for a year now.
I love your garden, looks very beautiful all season!
Thank you Linda!
Wow - so while you were here in the US, I went to Ireland for the first time!!! I have a terrific picture of a robin, taken at "Ladies View" on the Ring of Kerry. North American robins look so different from robins from the UK, that no one else from my group knew what kind of bird it was. But I knew, from watching your videos!!! I wish I could show you the photo - he was indeed very friendly! Thanks for showing the photos from your travels. I have been to many National Parks out west, but never to South Dakota. I definitely need to get out there!🥰
Glad you had a good time in Ireland - I am so pleased you made the acquaintance of one of our robins and that it posed for your camera!
I can certainly recommend South Dakota - those Badlands and Black Hills are quite special.
So nice to see you back Paul! I hope you’ve enjoyed your trip! Your garden and your little friend are amazing! I really love your voice🥰 it is very soothing and relaxing. Thank you for sharing with us!🙋🏻♀️💚💚💚💚🌵🪴
Thank you Saya it’s good to be back.
I certainly did enjoy the trip - saw many incredible sights and learned a lot about the history of the area.
I am so pleased you enjoy my videos 🌸🌻
Glad to see both you and Mr
Robin are doing well! Thanks for sharing your video clips, your work is beautiful!
Thank you so much Anna 🌻
Welcome back, you’ve been missed! Your garden looks lovely as usual. That little robin has stolen my heart; wish our American Robin was as tame as your little guy. You’ve captured “on film” so many stunningly beautiful places I would love to visit here in the USA.
Thank you J C - glad you like my little robin, he’s been a friend for a year now.
I so enjoy recording beautiful areas of this world.
Your garden looks very beautiful on fall season!!!🍂 Love the Robin ❣️
Wait for your upcoming videos....😊
Thank you - I am pleased the garden looks interesting in Autumn.
Great video as always Mr. Paul, loved every frame. While we didn’t specifically recognize every shot from the western US we did place a few. What a great watch.
Glad you enjoyed the 'quiz' - and the garden.
Благодарю Вас за осенний сад!
You are very welcome.
belleza de jardín 💚🙌🌼🌸🌺
Gracias 🌸🌻
Thank you Paul. Nice to see you back.
Thank Irina - it’s really nice to be back making videos.
Welcome back!Thank you for sharing your adventures!
You are most welcome.
Your garden is such an inspiration! I’m happy to see some weeds, makes me feel normal, lol!!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed my garden. Yes, but these weeds are getting 'huge' lol
Hallo Iam glad to see you again the garden is beautiful as always love it thanks for sharing ...those picture you take are very nice 😃👍🌺
Thank you - I enjoy sharing videos of the garden. 🌸👍
Love your Robin friend.
He is a cutie!
It is great to see you again and in top form! Welcome back (said the "hungry monster" ;-))! I have recognised some of the places but not all, anyway, I seem to have a certain unfair advantage over the other viewers of yours.
Thank you, glad you thought the video good as I am rather out of practice and yep, the hungry monster got me lol
A few of the clips were quite obscure and some famous - thought I’d mix it up. I’ve put the locations in the comments now.
Lovely October garden tour and robin story. We had a robin recently eating our Cornus tree fruit. You covered some area in the USA.
Always nice to see the local birds enjoying ‘literally’ the fruits of your garden.
It was a great trip - the drive was about 2,800 miles - enjoyed every minute of it.
Great video Paul and so glad you’ve been away working/having fun as I thought you might be poorly. The pictures and videos at the end look amazing, thanks for sharing them but the ones featuring the robin are my favourite. Deb
Hi Deb, thank you for your concern - it's appreciated. The robin has been sharing the garden and chatting to me for a year now - glad you enjoy his company as well.
Enjoyed the video Paul. Thanks for sharing the clips of some of the locations you visited filming in your day job!
Thank you Ursula, I really enjoyed making the video.
I just love your garden. So sorry I'm so late seeing this video. Loved the pics; some I recognized, some I had no idea; they were neat! Thanks!
Thank you Fredi, glad you also enjoyed the travel shots.
🤗THANKS PAUL,FOR THE VIDEO AND YOUR DAY JOB INFO ℹ️,WE OFTEN HAVE WONDERED 🧐 WHAT YOU DID 😊💚💚💚
You’re welcome - I enjoyed making the video - and the little travelogue. 👍
Beautiful Garden
So nice of you
Glad you enjoyed your holiday Paul, welcome back. Garden looks lovely and your little friend looks nice and healthy. Happy gardening.
I had an absolutely fabulous time Lil.
You’re right - the robin has his winter coat now.
Great video paul, and a welcomed return. Jealous of your travels!
Hi Kris, glad you liked the video - yes, I’m lucky to travel a lot.
Your garden is so beautuful.
Thank you.
Ваш сад красив и в октябре, а малиновка просто ручная!
Your garden is beautiful even in October, and the robin is simply tame!
Thank you Olga, strangely it’s the tropical plants that also still look good in the Autumn.
A very beautiful garden!
Thank you!
le jardin est encore très beau à cette époque !
Merci Roger!
Thank you for sharing your work videos and photos. What a fun job ! Also, the British Robins are beautiful ... much bright and bigger orange chest than North American species.
Thank you for watching and enjoying the garden and my robin. 🌻
So! You came to our neck of the woods! Isn't it an amazing area!?!
I thoroughly enjoyed driving round your area - fabulous scenery, wildlife - and I love the history of the West. I must have visited most of Butch Cassidy’s hang outs - and jail cell lol
@@paultsworld that's awesome paul!!Paul!!! The needles are one of my favorite. We're there lots of chipmunks still running about? It's been years since we've been there. Did you see devils tower? It's awesome too ! And ofcource love seeing your beautiful garden!!!! My azaleas and rodis are doing great in pots too ! Thanks paul!
I loved that drive down the Needles Highway! Still plenty of chipmunks lol. Unfortunately didn't have time to get to Devil's Tower - I have seen pictures of it and it's certainly spectacular. It's great that azaleas do so well in pots - hope they flower beautifully for you this Spring Linda.
I love the lacecap hydrangea’s so pretty 🥰
I agree - the bees like them as well
Beautiful garden!
Thank you!
Exciting job! I'm jealous.
I must say - I do enjoy my job
Hello from Oregon zone 8b. Really enjoyed this tour. Sounds like you have a very interesting job.
Glad you enjoyed my video! Greetings to Oregon - a state I've not yet visited.
It is very beautiful !!!❤
Thank you Patricia. 🌻
thank you. I enjoyed your video. as always.🥰
I’m very pleased- thank you.
It should be Saint Paul's Garden. You got a bird to come in and take the Worm from your hand!!!! Your garden remains one of most beautiful gardens over all the seasons. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong with my rhody/Azalea. You get a lot of rain there but you don't have root rot issue. I live in us. So, I won't cheat on the sites you detailed. The photography was outstanding. It is amazing how variable the landscape is among the states you visited from the photos.
I wonder if it is the soil? My soil is sandy below the compost so it drains very well - makes it too dry in the Summer but at least nothing rots. Azaleas need ericaceous compost - what sort of soil do you have?
Glad you enjoyed the travel clips.
Yes, you have reassured me that it might be best to further amend the soil with perlite. I was used to clay soil. With this house, the soil is more loamy. So, I didn't further amend except with Holly tone. However, I applied a fungicide right before the winter. If a few survive to next season, will dig them up and plant them higher in soil amended with perlite. It might take a while to sort out the right mix
Thank you!
Hope it works out - good luck!
It's always great to see you and robin back Paul. It is lovely to be accompanied by a garden bird, I had a dove drop in for the summer, she would wait for food in the morning and even climb onto my hand, then she'd hang around the garden all day, walk about where I was gardening and fly off for the night after an evening feed. She disappeared 2 weeks ago, so I'm hoping she found a mate. Can't wait to see the following videos, especially since I bought 2 cannas bulbs last spring and need to know what to do next. Your photography is amazing. Have a great day 😀
Thank you Kim, how nice you had the dove wanting your company - and food. Being trusted by a wild bird is something special.
Great to hear you’ve got cannas in your garden - I love their rate of growth! I’m looking forward to doing more videos - hopefully plenty of time (if you’re in the UK) to enjoy your cannas before Winter.
Happy Day! Can’t wait to watch!
Thank you - hope you enjoy my video.
Wonderful show!
Thank you!
Hi Paul, so nice to have a video from you. I see you have visited our country. I’ve been to some of those places 😊 Looking forward to your next video ❤️
Hi Vicki, it’s been great to do another video (sorry about the lack of pond news - it’s not been so good this year but I’m going to remedy that).
I had a great visit in your country - I do love to do long road trips in the US. 🌻
@@paultsworld So glad you enjoyed it. What a wonderful job you have to see so much of the world 😁 A new year is coming and hopefully it’s a good one for your pond. I’m partial to that pond 😁❤️
I am fortunate to be able to travel and record on film the marvellous places I visit - and make a living at it. 🌻
Thank you for sharing your lovely tour. I have to build my garden from the scratch, in Barcelona and I will like to share with you some pictures
from before and after. You really inspired me 😊
I’m honoured you are inspired by my garden. I wish you good luck with your exciting project of creating a garden from scratch.
I am trying to think how I could see your pictures…I know it’s difficult through UA-cam. Is there a way you could put them somewhere (Facebook?) and send a link? Would that work?
I am not on Facebook, but I will find out the way to send it to you 😊
OK, good luck
Восхитительно! С волнением ждала новое видео.
Thank you so much - I appreciate your kind words.
Lovely to see you & your garden again. I was begining to worry :) Sounds like you've had a busy summer
So nice of you - thank you. It has been a good Summer.
So glad to see you back. I too was a little worried about no videos from you but glad you are ok just off working.
It’s good to be back - thank you.
❤
🌻👍
The Weigela looks great!! I like the idea of self seeding plants. Where you can move them where they look best. The Viburnum is a wonderful plant as well. Taking notes. Thank you for the work that you do both for profit and for joy.
That variety of weigela is really vigorous - and has nice pink/red flowers in the late Spring.
Glad you liked my video, I really enjoyed making it.
Welcome back Paul it’s been a long time thank you for sharing your beautiful garden still colorful even in October. 👍😊🙏❤️ from Washington USA 🇺🇸
Thank you Khay, it's appreciated.
So nice seeing a video from you..... your garden may have had a short time of neglect, but it has certainly not failed to put on a show..... thanks for the tour!
Thank you Ellie, I enjoyed getting out into the garden again.
Looks like you had a great summer. You were close to where I live in the Pacific NW. 😊 z8
I had a fabulous time - your whole area up there is full of interest, wildlife and spectacular views - I loved it!
How Paul, good to see you posting again.
Your garden is looking lovely as ever.
Always good to see your little Robin friend. Birds can’t resist meal worms 🐛 it’s like crack to them. 😂
I did recognize a couple of the places that you have been to.
How did you like driving on the other side of the road? 😩 lol
It sounds like you have a fabulous job, it’s really good that you’re still enjoy it so much. :)
Hi Sue, I know what you mean about the mealworms lol
In my late 20s I drove a number of times from NY to San Francisco and also all through Central America to Panama three times so at that time I had driven far more on the right - especially as I didn’t own a car in Britain lol. I always do massive ‘road trips’ when abroad so luckily I’m quite used to it and enjoy the open road….now in a city it’s another matter! Can’t ever see me retiring lol
@@paultsworld Yeppers, mealworms = crack to our birdy friends lol.
Holy moly you have done a lot of driving over here, so you are quite comfortable being on the right side of the road. :)
Yes, because of the big road trips - I have probably driven more on the right than the left!
Hey Paul, I missed you!!🌹
Thank you - so kind.
its good for the viewers like me !!
if u tell about the plants are they giving fragrance ? Or not , for example camelia etc ..... nice to see u back 😊
I am glad to be back - thank you.
You’re right, fragrance is important. This is a video I made on the fragrant plants in my garden. I hope you find it interesting.
ua-cam.com/video/3lojBI_rBdk/v-deo.html
Happy to hear you were away all this time, and not ill. As usual the garden is looking lovely, bet Mr Robin was delighted to have you back home. My Granddaughter graduates high school in '24, your living her dream job, altho she'd love to be under water for hers. I see you visited some great landmarks over here.
I arranged for two neighbours to feed the robin each day so the routine kept going.
I hope your granddaughter pursues her dreams - it is indeed a privilege to make money from what you love to do.
I loved the trip to your country which was full of interest every day.
@@paultsworld
Did you make it to the east coast.? I'm 90 mins from the ocean on the shore in Maryland, just over 2 hrs from DC.
On this trip I visited Wyoming, Colorado, South Dakota and Nebraska.
@@paultsworld
I wondered if Mount Rushmore was the closest you may have gotten.
That’s right - just near Hill City.
In the mid west of USA! Elk too! Maybe Red Arches park Utah? Western boot in Texas?
It was a privilege to have the elk slowly walk passed me.
Those are great guesses - and could have been those places but in fact the two you are referring to are Badlands National Park, South Dakota and the boots are in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Wow, You're back !! Good to see you, your garden and the lovely little robin, of course. I THINK he really missed you while you were away... ( or was it the meal worms? no! he seemed to have missed his human.) Wow, so many beautiful plants so late in the season. Zorro is looking particularly good. The bananas have done well. Is the Ensete a false banana? The perennials are all looking magnificent. We are having a good Spring here. I have managed to purchase some perennials I have been envying watching UK and US gardens, so very happy gardener here. Brown snakes have come out of hibernation this week around the house. Got swooped by a magpie on my run today. A bit scary. I wish our wildlife could be a little more genteel.
Hi Margaret, thank you for the welcome back. I arranged for two neighbours to come and feed the robin every day - they say they miss him now lol. I wonder if he noticed it wasn't me or was he concentrating on the mealworms? Yes, you're correct it is the false banana - Ethiopian banana.
Well done getting some new perennials - I suppose they, along with shrubs, are the mainstay of the garden - I love the speed they grow. That large rudbeckia I showed was a small plant I bought in the Spring, it grew to full height and flowered this Summer.
Our wildlife is very genteel - I feed the hedgehog every night and it trots across the garden expectantly. Just wish we had more wildlife - I actually love snakes but not very keen on your varieties lol. Aren't 8 of the 10 most poisonous snakes in the world found in Oz? I remember many years ago spending 2 weeks camping out under the stars, lying on the tent not bothering to put it up - in the Red Centre, Kings Canyon/Alice Springs area and only thinking of snakes when back home!
I bought a rudbeckia. I like the one you showed it has smaller but more abundant flowers than the one I have. It is coming back nicely. Yes all the venomous snakes. They say people get bitten at night....just not while they sleep in open tents....although what did I hear the other day?! 😉
I was surprised at my new rudbeckia- lots of very small flowers - I quite like it though especially as it has flowered for such a long time. Hopefully yours will flower well this Summer.
I just realised the lychnis that I purchased is rose campion. I am very excited by that. (As an aside We are expecting a bad, hot and dry summer. I hope you don't see footage of Australia burning in January)
What colour is your Rose Campion? I do hope you don't have the extreme weather that happened this last few years.
your garden is so nice, elk and George Washington statue, too tired to guess more than that lol
Glad you liked the garden Joy. Of course you’re 100% correct. I suppose you have plenty of Elk in your mountains?
Garden looks great.
I must put more Hydrangeas in as there such good visual value.
The garden birds have been very secretive here for the last 3 months.Apparently they all moult late summer which makes them so very distant.
Do you get sparrows in your box?
I would certainly encourage you to get more hydrangeas as they are low maintenance and have a long period of interest.
That’s a good point about the birds moulting and getting their new feathers ready for winter - my robin was quite bedraggled after the nesting season and is now in good condition again.
I expected plenty of sparrows in the box as there are always quite a gang of them in the beech hedge - and I did get one sparrow nesting each year but now no sparrows nest there - I don’t know where they do nest, perhaps in the hedge - and now a pair of blue tits take up residence each year.
Yellowstone National Park.
That’s right - the geyser and the animals are in Yellowstone 👍👍
Hi Paul, any update on how the brugmansia is doing and how to overwinter it? Thanks
I'll be waiting till just on the first frosts - then I'll take all the leaves off and put the pot in the garage till April. That seems to work OK as they don't need any light when they haven't got leaves and are dormant. You could also take cuttings and put them in water in the house over Winter. I think doing both is a good idea.
Merhaba paul adını bilmediğim bir sürü çiçekler var bahcenizde çok güzel birde karpuz kavun ekseniz ne güzel olur yersiniz bizim burda karpuz kavun çok yetişir vlogtaki geyiklerin olduğu yer neresi size ozelden nereden yazabilirim tabi isterseniz selamlar 😊
Hello Ulke, I am pleased you enjoyed my garden flowers.
Growing melons and watermelons is a very nice idea but unfortunately my climate is not hot enough in England for them to ripen - it must be very nice to be able to grow these plants. The deer are in Yellowstone National Park in the USA.
Merhaba Ülke, bahçe çiçeklerimi beğenmene çok sevindim.
Kavun ve karpuz yetiştirmek çok güzel bir fikir ama ne yazık ki İngiltere'deki iklimim onların olgunlaşması için yeterince sıcak değil - bu bitkileri yetiştirebilmek çok güzel olmalı.
Geyikler ABD'deki Yellowstone Milli Parkı'ndadır.
Merhaba paul hep sorcak oluyorum ama unutuyorum sizin ordaki evlerin çatıları değişik onu neden ve hangi malzemeden yapıyorlar eski taş evleri öyle bunu hep merak etmişimdir feslegeni ektinmi bahcene hayranım kardeşiniz ve köpeğiyle çekim yaparsan iyi olur selamlar😊
Hi Ulke, up to now I have not yet planted basil - maybe in the Spring.
Merhaba Ülke, şimdiye kadar henüz fesleğen ekmedim - belki ilkbaharda.
Evet, birçok farklı çatı malzememiz var. Çatım bir çeşit beton kiremit. Birçoğu kayraktan yapılmıştır. Gelecek hafta kız kardeşimin köpeğine bakıyorum, belki fotoğraf çekme şansım olur.
Benim yaşadığım evin catisida sizinki gibi 5 katlı olup ikinci katında oturuyorum bahcemiz çok küçük fazla çiçek çeşidi yok ben genel olarak ingilterenin hani biraz dışa uzantısı olan kalın geniş catiyi sordum neden ve hangi malzemeden yapilmis acaba çok yağmurlu ülke diyemi öyle yapmışlar sizi yormuyorum değilmi bende burda evime yakın pastanede iş buldum işe baslaycam selamlar😊
Burada yağmur yağıyor ama çoğu insanın düşündüğü kadar değil. Bazen kurak yazlar yaşarız.
Bir iş bulduğun için tebrikler. Umarım işinizden keyif alırsınız.
You could’ve stopped and stayed here in Idaho
I would have loved to also visit Idaho - unfortunately not enough time on this visit.
Iyi akşamlar paul videonu tekrar izledim bahcende fesleğen çiçeği göremedim o çiçek çok güzel hemde suya dayanıklı olup zaten sizin orasida yağmurlu bir yer olduğu için iyi olur iş konusunda bana yardımcı olursanız sevinirim inanın ihtiyacım var ev yardımcılığı veya bakıcı olarak olur çevrenizde iş arkadaşlarınızdan vardır herhalde teşekkürler selamlar😊
Hello Ulke, I think a basil flower would be a good idea!
Merhaba Ülke, fesleğen çiçeğinin iyi bir fikir olacağını düşünüyorum!
Ne yazık ki ev bakıcısına ihtiyacı olan kimseyi tanımıyorum; belki bu tür işlerde uzmanlaşmış bir ajansı deneyebilirsiniz. İyi şanlar.
❤
