Thanks, but Chelsea Chop is no plant. It is a cut in Mai to strengthen the plant and to to prevent it from tipping forward as it grows larger (as explained in the video too!)
Alexandra, I think you are my favorite garden you tuber. I find such peace and knowledge watching your videos. You are right up there with Ygarden, Hortube, and the emEnthusiastic gardener for me , anyways. I ve been seriously gardening for ten years now and have learned that I think english gardens are my favorite. I love the flowy flowery beds with the formal structures of evergreens. Thank you so much for starting my Saturday mornings on a good note. Have a wonderful werkend.
I adore your channel! I’ve learned soo much from your videos! In American, it’s so hard to find gardening information for creating English style gardens, which is what I love. Your videos are helping me adjust and fine tune my borders, and they are looking amazing! Much thanks!
I would have never guessed that this was zone 4-9! Simply breathtaking! Thank you so much for the wonderful tour of Doddingtom Gardens and also the important information that you pointed out!
Just to clarify - the individual plants are hardy in various zones and I often feature plants that are happy in a wide range of zones, but this garden itself isn't zone 4-9, even though many of the plants in it would be fine in those zones.
No need to reply--I just wanted to say thank you so much for these wonderful videos. Beautiful, soothing, informative--it really is like a lovely mini vacation!
Heh, heh, I noticed that too. But the dirt under nail Polish….how would you know when you are done scrubbing? Anyways maybe she had a manicure for the video..
She didn't have a manicure for the video because she only had a couple of hours' notice (if that) that I was coming and no manicurists in deepest countryside!
So wish I could plant as these gardens are-without fencing to keep out deer and rabbits. The deer would make Swiss cheese out of those hedges. All so beautiful-thank you!
I’ve watched many of your videos several times. So much great information and so many wonderful ideas for this Pacific Northwest gardener! Thank you. Your voice is so soothing, I should try listening at bedtime to get to sleep!
Thank you so much Alexandra,I have taken lots of notes as usual.Am on a huge learning process and look forward to Saturdays to hear all your tips.Your time and effort is much appreciated.
I live in NZ & am currently doing a horticultural course. I play your videos while I'm studying. You are so inspiring! I have learnt so much useful information from you. Keep up the good work! 💕
A recommendation from zone 6a - I just planted calamint for the first time earlier this summer. (Not catmint but calamint). It has not stopped blooming and looks fresh and plump in this crazy heat wave we’ve all been enduring! I got the soft powdery blue variety (cloud blue, I believe it’s called) but the white is equally lovely. It doesn’t look terribly impressive in photos but let me attest to its power in the garden at the front of the border. And the bees love it, too! 🐝 I did a row of calamint, lady’s mantel and crystal blue profusion salvia and it’s stellar!!
I am from Pakistan and I live in Lahore. I love gardens but as I don't have one, I use my enormous terrace to potter and enjoy both flowers, herbs and even a few vegetables. Our summers ate hot! Pottolacca- I haven't a clue how it's spelt, does really well in pots and this summer I have scores of small bees humming and enjoying these vibrant flowers after the lush petunias faded away beginning of summer. My roses need a lot of care. I just saw a video where you talked about black spot. I am really pleased as I had just noticed a couple of leaves decaying with a similar fungus. So thank you.
I love your post so interesting, I’m in north uk, we lack sun. So far yesterday was the first time it appeared and was warm enough 20 degrees to enjoy. Hearing about your wealth of sun got my imagination going imagining what that must be like ! Best wishes and happy gardening to you
I love this border series. All of the videos are chocked full of great information and are giving me a lot of ideas. Thank you so much for providing this information and beautiful gardens.
Always grateful for your content! I'm especially happy when your videos spotlight specific species and their care needs - that helps one to focus on plant material that excites.
Hi Alexandra, Thank you for sharing this with us! I love your video so much and I wish I could subscribe twice. Instead, I watch your videos multiple times. They are always very informative and well presented. Cheers from Canada!
In Kentucky, I save many many Middle-Sized vids to a favorite garden playlist. Alexandra's Middle-Sized Garden channel, Linda Vater (USA), & John Lord (Ireland), seem to be the most-viewed (of course !!! )
This is the third Middlesized Garden video I've watched and I've now subscribed. The gardens are always beautiful, the production quality is great, and the content well thought-out.
I’m new to the gardening world. I love your videos, they are very informative. It is so interesting how there are so many different ideas and designs. 🌼🐝🪴
Hi Alexander, thank you so much for the informative chat, now we can pick and choose what we wish to grow. There are quite a few old time favourites which always work and compliment our gardens. It's lovely to grow perennials with the roses, each can compliment the other and also helping butterflies and bees with their pollination schedule for the day. Doddington Place has a beautiful garden lay-out alas, they do require the assistance of extra hands! It was so enjoyable to watch as always. Have a wonderful day, regards Elize :)
This video persuaded me to try an Astrantia this coming season. I am focusing on plants for native bees, and I hope that they will like the Astrantia. Thanks for introducing me to this flower.
Thank you for this informative video. I live in the US Zone 5 and I am on a sand ridge....quite a challenge for growing flowers. Your tips were very helpful.
My favourite long flowering plants are Alstroemerias. Hardy osteospermums. Erodium manescavii. They flower for months And I just remembered perennial nemesias
I love these tips - especially since I am a New York gardener and seek out the other variants of the "top sellers." Thanks for a great focused presentation - it is certainly one of your strengths.
Thank you so very much…I absolutely love your channel!! Each video is the perfect combo of tips and inspiration. I subscribe to a couple English gardening magazines. Your videos and the magazines have helped me create an amazing perennial garden on a slope in US zone 5. I have designed it to reflect an English border garden and planned the plants to provide year-round interest. So the long-blooming plants video gave me some great new ideas. I love the chelsea chop!! My gardens delight so many walkers and even motorists. They often stop if they see me out working and are so appreciative. It’s my way of sharing the gift and for me, the ultimate joy of gardening-sharing moments of beauty with others. Gardens and flowers do touch hearts…Happy Digging
Wow! Such generous, good advice. Thank you for your consistent, concise, expert opinion on making smart choices and thereby enjoying the gardening experience so much more. You are the best.
Hi, I really love your channel, as a new Gardner from the weat coast of Ireland I am so excited and nervous to be starting my new garden but your videos are so useful, full of common sense keep up the good work! Tomás
I’m going to try the tip about cutting back the front of a tall flowering perennial clump,and then doing the same to the back later on. I have clumps of Shasta daisies that may do well with that.
I do that with Shasta daisies, and it works very well. I’ve shaped them into a rounded mound, as well as staggering heights of flowers throughout. You can really do whatever you want. Sometimes I do a mild cutting back of some stalks, followed by more cutting back of other stalks a week later.
Thanks Alexandra. A lovely informative video. I’ve been trying to identify the nautia Macedonica for a while now. I love the one with the almost pale grey leaves. I find that some geraniums keep on flowering like Rozanne but others are over after the first flush of flowers. Most geraniums are good value though.
Alexandra ~ This was such a helpful video. I'm loving the perennial purple geranium I planted in my front border and cannot wait to add many more next season to other parts of the garden. It's been blooming fully since I planted it in April and still going strong! Your videos are so informative and knowledgeable. Thank you again! Choosing Joy ~ stephanie
At first, I was disappointed upon clicking to see that these recommendations are for England! I initially assumed that my climate would render the recommendations meaningless, but I found that, even though I'm in Texas, there are some useful and interesting plant ideas that I can look into. I felt really at home when the "Chelsea chop" came up. It has a name! I began to do that to my John Fanick phlox years ago - because it'd rain, and they'd flop into the mud and never really recover. I had to do SOMETHING, and although I wasn't sure if it was the BEST thing to do, picking up the flower heads out of the mud, then spending our Very Long summer with a messed up, trashed phlox was NOT the ideal. Nice to have a green light from the experts. It works. Smaller, more diffuse heads are fine if I don't want them for cutting, and I'd rather have a productive garden display throughout the season. So, I can't plant your recommended varieties, but we have native and adapted, and you've given me some new ideas to intersperse with the canna lilies, lantana, hiibiscus and bluebonnets.
Thank you! And you make a good point - the plants work in quite a wide number of zones, but not all would survive in Texas. But ideas and techniques work across zones.
Thank you so much for this beautiful and informative video. Your videos do inspire me and I am going to try growing penstemon, that was my striking choice, thank you🙏🏼🌸🌺🌼
Thank you !! I found my new favorite show to watch with my morning tea .So informative! Love the tips and wonderful scenery Thank you for including usda zones. I am in the hot dry part of 9 but with a good cold snap that makes lilacs and peonies happy but with a summer heat that makes plants and Englishmen question what there doing here. 🤣
Oh wow! Fantastic video! Love the flowers mentioned but they are not sold locally. I am in Fl zone 9. What i really need is that green wall of hedge! My next door neighbor’s yard looks like Sanford & Son tv show & i need a green wall just like that. Could you teach us how to grow a green wall of hedge? That hedge at.26 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'll definitely have a think. I thought I had done a video on choosing a hedge, but looking back I realise it was just a blog post. Anyway here it in case that helps, and your comment has reminded me that I must add 'hedges' to the list, thank you! www.themiddlesizedgarden.co.uk/which-hedge-is-right-for-my-garden/
Generally lovely and very informative video... the only topic that maybe you could include would be soil type? We have a very wet clay garden, and just can't grow most of these (roses, geraniums and euphorbia yes... none of the others will last more than one season!)
Thank you. That is interesting. I will certainly do damp garden planting at some point, although it will require me to be quite a long way from home as it is hideously dry here.
1. Penstemon
2. Euphorbia
3. Geranium
4. Chelsea chop
5. Astrantias
6. Roses
7. Anthemis tinctoria
Thanks, but Chelsea Chop is no plant. It is a cut in Mai to strengthen the plant and to to prevent it from tipping forward as it grows larger (as explained in the video too!)
The fourth plant is Knautia :)
You're such a fantastic presenter. Always showing various gardens, great subject content, and always asking the best questions.
Thank you
Geraniums are fantastic plants.
So easy to grow in any soil , and so many varieties.
Yes they are!
How elegant you look! Like a flower yourself. So well spoken and full of practical tips
You are a treasure
Euphorbia!!!!! Amazing, brilliant, reliable, drought tolerant! Reseeds freely! My number one go to in drought stricken Northern California!
It is!
Gives an entirely new meaning to I love Lucy. I could listen to her all day. Swoon.
Appreciate you take the time to be aware of how a plant behaves in different countries!
Thank you!
Loved that tip at the end: clip 1/2 the chamomile, then the other 1/2 later.👍🏽
I learn so much and gather such inspiration. Thank you! My favorite part? Your "goodbye". Puts a smile on my face every time ❣️
Thank you!
That’s my favorite too 🥰
My ground orchids never stopped blooming all summer! Definite favorite
Thank you for another wonderful episode. I always learn something useful and appreciate the amount of work you do to help us improve our gardens.
Thank you!
Alexandra, I think you are my favorite garden you tuber. I find such peace and knowledge watching your videos. You are right up there with Ygarden, Hortube, and the emEnthusiastic gardener for me , anyways. I ve been seriously gardening for ten years now and have learned that I think english gardens are my favorite. I love the flowy flowery beds with the formal structures of evergreens. Thank you so much for starting my Saturday mornings on a good note. Have a wonderful werkend.
Thank you so much, I like YGarden and Horttube too, and will check out the Enthusiastic Gardener.
Goodness me thank you Adra 😍

Thank you for bringing the various ways to use the Chelsea Chop to our garden’s advantage.
Can I just say I’m so impressed with Lucy’s manicure 😂 how on earth does she keep her nails looking so elegant while being head gardener!
Heh, heh, I noticed that too. But the dirt under nail Polish….how would you know when you are done scrubbing? Anyways maybe she had a manicure for the video..
She didn't have a manicure for the video because she only had a couple of hours' notice (if that) that I was coming and no manicurists in deepest countryside!
@@TheMiddlesizedGarden but she did! Check out her red nails in your video! Lol
Gel nail varnish. Done in a salon. If done properly it last for weeks and is as tough as nails !
@@elsagrace3893that could be a concern unless you get a clear one. I save all my washing up till the end of the day. That usually is good enough.
Your garden is BREATHTAKING
It's a beautiful garden, but it's not mine - it's Doddington Place - and lovely, as you say.
So wish I could plant as these gardens are-without fencing to keep out deer and rabbits. The deer would make Swiss cheese out of those hedges. All so beautiful-thank you!
Deer reportedly don't eat boxwood or yew! I have deer and elk to deal with!

Well done, I always do it completely convinced I'm going to damage the plant. But it turns out fine in the end.
Such a great informative video. Thankyou for condensing years of your experience in a short video.
