Erin, they’re certainly lovely! I too had my timing spot on for my Sweet Lillian, butterfly amaryllis (the only type I saved from last year) but, I didn’t have my timing right for Wakefield pottery. Readers, please give tips, I always seem to check in at the wrong times. 😊 Magical Touch is on the list for next August. Hubby gifted me a PU leather repotting mat that I only now see what it will come in handy for. 😊 I’m glad to now be into seed starting season! Happy Holidays, gardening friends!

hi dear , Merry Christmas. may i ask which plant is behind you ? thank you

Wow, 8 inches of snow has turned the garden into a total fairy tale! ❄ It's so wonderful to be able to enjoy a walk in the garden in a winter landscape!

Merry Christmas!!

Your garden looks so pretty. Happy Holidays.

It is simply beautiful!

My peonies bloom moderately well with full spring sun… not much shade once the trees leaf out! Never hurts to try in a less than prime spot.

Thanks!

Merry Christmas to you and your family from Morristown Tennessee

Erin, Beautiful tour, but looks very "Brrrrr" there. 😬 Darwin? No longer Magnus? 🤔 I'm confused. Hope this had nothing to do w/ the Darwin Awards. 😕 Ya'all have a blessed Christmas!!! ❤🙏❤

I never thought of using my orchid pots. I have to try this. Merry Christmas. 🎄 💚

Thank you, Erin. 😊

You got a white early Christmas. Hope you have a wonderful Christmss time. 🤗🎄❤️

Erin, Everyone says to trim off the flowers when you've rooting something so energy will go to root growth rather than maintaining flowers. I always thought, "Yeah, yeah, I know, but just how much difference can a few flowers make?" 🤔 Well watching this video, I got my answer. 😏 Thank you! 😊 May you & your 2-legged & 4-legged family members have a loving, joyous, & blessed Christmas!!! ❤🙏❤

Erin, You've lost more weight & look great.....but it's time to stop losing it, now, 'cause you look perfect just as you are! 😊

Try Itoh peonies! The foliage itself is gorgeous and so far doesn’t seem to be as prone to powdery mildew for me. I haven’t added a tree peony yet but I’d like to. And there’s also a woodland peony that doesn’t require full sun and has those wild looking seed pods…also on my must grow list! If the deer don’t eat it, I’m game!

I like the lazy part

The evergreens with snow are just stunning. Love that new garden between you and the house under construction.

Your blog post about arborvitae soldiers made me laugh. Every time a new row of arborvitae soldiers goes in near me, I make a mental guess about how many will be brown in three months time. Sadly, it’s usually around 20-40%. People don’t realize (or aren’t told) how much water they need to get established.

Does Nicotiana tolerate sun, some say Nicotiana loves shade… I’m confused

I do love that you have all taught us to love winter interest in the garden. I'm so glad I don't clean up my garden like I used to. The snow looks so pretty on plants, and love seeing the birds finding seed. Thanks for the beautiful tour and seeing Darwin romping around, loving his life!

I look forward to the globe obelisk and urn winter container every year! I also really loved how the grape vine structure looks at night. A bit behind here due to business travel, but this turned out to be perfect viewing for Christmas Eve morning! Merry Christmas Erin!

Beautiful!

Trowel. You can never have too many of them.

Happy Christmas and lots of love from Sweden 🇸🇪

Did I miss something? We've met Magnus and today, a pup who looks the same is being called Darwin.

😮

I wish to grow some in Wisconsin but is it too cold ? It is zone 5 if I remember right. Also . . . If you have an area where you want them and you cant till the ground until after the snow is gone can you till it and then sow seeds? I would think so but idk. Have you ever done that?

Beautiful amaryllis, beautiful kitchen, Beautiful table- how about a tarp or newspaper? Ive used my granite island for planting before. My worst is when i do it at a sink & get the planting medium near the drain. That cant be good. ❤. I cant forget- Beautiful Erin! Thank you for all your hard work. Merry Christmas dear one.

Sweet Darwin! Nothing is cuter than a fluffy puppy face covered in snow. Wonderful winter interest in your garden. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year❄

Northern girls, we are lucky all we have to do is bundle up and open our eyes. There are two types of snow falls that I love and you have to experience in real time. One is when you are walking and the snow looks like diamonds and the other is when it comes down like fluffy feathers. I say that there is a pillow fight in heaven. Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Hard to look at the scenery when that sweet boy is romping around! Darwin has beautiful movement!❤️

Glad you got a white Christmas!! Thank you for taking us on another stroll 😊

Just gorgeous! 🤍💙

Hi Erin. I’m really enjoying your garden strolls and watching the puppy when he roams around your yard. I was glad to see the postcard from Butchart Gardens. I moved to Vancouver Island from Winnipeg 2 1/2 years ago and immediately bought a seasons pass. I now live 10 minutes from there and enjoy the seasonal changes. It’s apparently a display garden and not a botanical garden. They change the annuals every season. And the Rose garden is absolutely amazing. I’m glad it’s on your list. I highly recommend. 😊❤️

So festive & lovely!!! ❤❤❤

everything is so pretty! what's with the Pups name change Im sure there's story.. goofy beg lug acts more like a darwin rather than the majestic Magnus? All my pets have their official names then their more commonly used nick names they earn along the way that alway morph in to the next. 😂 anyway Merry Christmas Erin, see you in 2025

I love how relaxed your approach is!

Happy Holidays to you and yours - and thanks for sharing you and your place with us. You are appreciated.

Beautiful but that pup takes the prize ❤❤❤

Merry Christmas Erin!

Merry Christmas 🎄 You have taught me so much Thank you Love & prayers for 2025 to you and your family!

Love the look of winter landscapes! Question..I thought the puppy's name was Magnus?

Beautiful Merry Christmas!

lovely lovely! happy holidays you you all!

A very merry Christmas to you and yours. Thank you for the gift of your time sharing your knowledge and beautiful garden through the year.

Merry Christmas 🎄

I love the snow on the dog wood. Like little cotton poofs. And the snow cap boxwoods

I love a good chaos! Your videos are always entertaining but I learn so much. Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
