- In this particular video I come back to my property to check how my gardens & drip system were doing, after being gone for a week and a half. My garden is located in the high desert of Northern Arizona in growing zone 6b

Interesting tour! Things seem to be doing well for the most part. I'll bet you were very good in the antique store you worked in. You do well explaining things and describing what might be going wrong with your plants. You also have a good memory of what you planted and when. Have a good one.😁✌🤟
Thanks 😊👍
BIG task growing food in the desert. Excellent job!
Definitely 👍 thanks
Wow Ausia All the Names of Plants. You are Amazing and your Gardens🙋♀️👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
So nice of you 😁💖
Yayyyyyyyy.....BLUEBERRIES!!
😊👍♥️
Hi Ausia, your Red Hot Poker is a root spreader. You can divide them each year to form new plants. Or you can leave it and it will grow in clusters with separate flower shoots. I actually do both and now have them all over my yard. Your friend, Louise
Thanks for the tips! I've just noticed that it's spreading 😊👍❤️
It's a great feeling when you can, literally, enjoy the fruits of your labors.
I've never been able to grow lemon balm, or Hollyhocks, without spraying. They are a feast for grasshoppers. If they get too destructive you can use a spray with Spinosad in it. It's an organic that's derived from a soil bacteria. It's only toxic to insects that eats leaves, that have been sprayed with it, so pollinators are fine, once it is dry. It shouldn't be sprayed on host plants for butterflies because it is effective against caterpillars too. Very low toxicity to birds and mammals. It can cause skin irritation, in some people, so be careful when applying it. I won't use anything else.
Agreed 👍 thanks for the tip
Love the tour of the garden! Thanks for naming everything and how they are doing in the different locations. Gardening is a process and it’s fun to see what works and what doesn’t. Always something to do!
Thanks.. definitely 😁 👍
You obviously have a great green thumb. So much growing and becoming more and more developed.
With a lot of love and attention and some water-desert garden flourishes.
Each season the garden will give more and more.
I am not a good garden person. But I do enjoy the few plants I have and they are doing good. Nothing like what you get but it has been so so very hot and some plants struggle some.
Hugs and thank you so much for sharing the garden with us.
Enjoy those berries !!!
😊👍❤️
Love the garden update! Amazing what you can grow in the desert!
Thanks 😊 👍 agreed
The garden looks great
Thanks ☺️ ♥️
Amazing knowledge of plants my friend 👍
Thanks ☺️ 👍
Your gardens are doing really well! The hens and chicks are so pretty.
Thank you! They are 😊👍
Love the wide variety you’ve planted to create a lovely wild looking garden ❤
Thanks so much 😊
Great video, Mahalo for sharing.
Thanks ☺️ ♥️
Gardens doing so well considering the climate they have to deal with. Thanks for the update ✌️
Definitely 😁 👍
Ohh I didn’t know they bloom flowers never seen them bloom awesome 👍🤗
😊👍
Some stuff looks dry check their dippers. The white Shasta daisy is great in the high desert, mine come back every year bigger and better, plant some bee balm they do well in dry climates and are perennial.
Thanks for the tip! 😁👍
You keep me inspired ❤
😊🙏❤️
It will soon be time to pick Mulberries here in Michigan and I can't wait. I have a access to a dwarf tree which makes them much easier to pick. Mulberry pie!
That's awesome 😊❤️
Love the garden!! ❤ Mine is being eaten up by a ground hog again, even after putting up a fence and now stacking it to the ground hopefully will help!! Won't be getting many bell peppers at this rate he munched!!
Thanks 😊🙏 Oh no! 😕
Your plants are doing really good👍
Thanks ☺️ 👍

Trial and error baby!
Definitely 😆👍
Those little grasshoppers are hard get rid of . I use sevin dust . Home depot told me that’s about the best thing to rid them . I have used it . Seems to work! 😊
Thanks for the tip but I don't like to use insecticide in my garden 😁👍 Sevin can be harmful to people and animals when used incorrectly, so you should always use it in strict accordance with the label directions and cautions. For example, you should avoid applying Sevin to blooming plants unless the product label specifically states otherwise.
Line the clay, porous containers w bags to help w moisture
😊👍
P.S. Oregon grape does well in dry, sunny locations, but better to get it established in a dry shady location before full sun. So maybe a shadier spot where it can grow into full sun area😊
Thanka 😊 👍
👍❤️
😊👍♥️
🙋♀️👋give Moo Moo a hug for me❤

My friend William, planted a Blueberry plant and said it is not doing good...this is in Colorado
Probably the soil 🤔
I wonder if your Comfrey would do better with a little more shade? A lot of plants, if planted in too warm/sunny climates do better with a little more shade. And visa-versa, like I run into… if too cool of a climate might do better if given more sun and/or more protected location to create a better microclimate area.
It's possible 🤔👍
@@GardenDayZ - In fact, I’m thinking now that they just do better in shadier spots anyway. I have one planted between each fruit tree (and slightly under because I think the trees are a bit too close, ooops ☺️) and all do well except the ones in deepest shade by the woods. And that’s here in Michigan where it’s cloudy a lot, and cooler.
Some plants may need more water, possibly in different spots the soil isnt as suitable. Azalea unless specified need shade. I had a sun azalea. You do not want grasshoppers period! They only destroy and multiply. Too bad you dont like staying home longer, cause you should try to get rid of them...
Thanks for sharing 😊👍
Id pull the salt bush, its retarding the growth of the other plants. Salt kills most plants.

Thanks 😊 👍

How the heck do you remember all those names of the plants?
It's weird. I'm usually very bad with names 😅
Confucius says; Small Glasshopper turn into Big Glasshopper... Also Virginity like bubble....
Lol ☺️
What are the stacks of water bottles for?
I use them as mini green houses.. for new plants or seedlings 😊👍❤️
The onion flowers are thier seeds..be sure to pick flowers off before seeds release or you'll have onions everywhere 😢
I'd actually be ok with the onion seeding everywhere 😁👍
😁👍❤️
