    Beautiful garden ! Love the greenhouse ! If you want to get rid of your weeds for a long time and feed your plants at the same time then you need to get yourself some Preen, it’s a weed n feed and comes in a big bucket! Just sprinkle it around and watch it work it’s magic ! I love it and think once you try it and see for yourself then you will to! Work smarter not harder !

    • @HowsItGrowing
      @HowsItGrowing  2 роки тому

      It’s made for exterior and waterproof for aquatic use, so I’m hopeful. I’ve used a dab on a command hook on my lamppost and it’s been stuck there for years. Fingers crossed. I’m in NJ zone 7. Thanks for watching! 😃

    Your enthusiasm for gardening is contagious. I enjoy following your projects. I, too, have so many ideas for my garden areas and I find great satisfaction when I accomplish one idea or project at a time; trying not to be overwhelmed! Your chicken topiary is going to be so cute. I can see the form developing. Love the idea for your boys to have a secret garden - a great project!

    I'm with you on house sparrows (which are non-native). I try to decrease the population too. I don't use millet in my birdseed and I actually trap them. I have bluebirds and if you've ever seen videos of what house sparrows can and will do to our native blue birds, trapping doesn't seem too bad. (I trap them when they are trying to get into my bluebird houses.)

    • @HowsItGrowing
      @HowsItGrowing  2 роки тому +1

      They are terrible non-native. I talked about it in more detail in my last video, I just don’t want to be abrasive to people about it. Even though it’s a real big problem! Thank you for your efforts in protecting our native birds! 💜

And your chicken topiary is already looking very much like a chicken!!! That’s a super fun gardening adventure to add to the mix! - The secret garden for the boys is such a precious idea! I can’t wait to see what they grow! I would have adored having such a cozy corner to garden in when I was growing up! I know they are going to treasure their bit of earth!!!

    @heathertroynak9041 2 роки тому

    Hey Doll!!
    We used a similar adhesive with our trellising stays and only a few have popped off. The reason ours pop off sometimes is because we are adhearing to cement or stucco and we didn’t use enough of the adhesive. It’s gotta be a blob enough to puddle out around the edges a decent amount. Not too much but for sure not too little.
    Your yard is insanely inspirational, as it ALWAYS is. Much love and hugs to you 🐥🌱
    Your enthusiasm for your surprise asparagus totally had mr giggling at my phone! Goodness, I adore your personality

So busy that I completely forgot about the snapdragons I sowed in 3 large empty salad containers. There are hundreds of them huddled in there and they’re all budding! I feel so bad.

    I'm so sorry about your espalier, they were such a beautiful line with 4! But I do love your idea of maybe incorporating an espalier pear or something else along the fence so I'm sure it will be lovely! I just planted 4 varieties of Siberian Iris in my garden yesterday, 12 in all with 3 root divisions each. One variety arrived moldy but I'm hoping they rebound!! Most of my planting time was spent digging through old roots of other plants...our property has mature gardening that was overgrown/dying so a lot of rehab to come here! Seeing how nice your garden is makes me smile.
