Thanks so much. Glad you liked it. Can't wait for spring. Lots of ideas. Have a great day!

Thanks so much. I was so glad they came back so strong. Have a great day!

Welcome! I am so glad you found me too. It's so nice to connect with another SoCal Gardener! Thanks so much for that kind comment. I usually use Miracle Grow Moisture Control Soil for my containers. I haven't ever had a problem with that brand but some people from other areas say that they have experiences some issues with white mold in some cases. I haven't seen that yet, but that's not to say that it won't ever be an issue. So far so good. I wish I could find the Proven Winners soil but as you know, it's really hard to find in our area. As for my raised beds, we have switched from Miracle Grow Organic Raised Bed Soil to Kellogg Organic Raised Bed Mix. It seems to do better and it's a little cheaper. I have found the best price at Lowes. Hope this helps and have a great New Year!

Thank you so much! It makes my day when people appreciate the videos.

Thanks Jean. We’ve had lots of moisture and fog here too. The only difference is it burns off a n the early afternoon. Thanks again for all your support and kindness this year. It’s been really nice connecting with a fellow garden enthusiast from across the pond. Have a wonderful New Year! Until next time… Happy Gardening! 🌱🎉🌱🎉🌱

We had a wonderful Christmas, Lina. Hope you did as well. Have a very Happy New Year! 🌱🎉🌱🎉🌱

Aww, thanks so much. Oh I’m sure your daffodils will be stunning in the spring when they come back this year. Tulips are amazing but daffodils are so reliable here. I wish Tulips came back for us. Does it get cold enough where you are for tulips or will you have to do like us… prolonged refrigeration before planting?

@@williamsgardening I have never refrigerated bulbs before...not sure if I would follow those instructions. ha ha Our weather is similar (summer) and colder (winter). More time outdoors (in the garden) for your family and you in 2025.🌞🌻

Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely check it out. Gotta love clearance prices!! Have a wonderful new year!

You know, that's what I was thinking when I originally planning the cut back. There's very few who have filmed a major prune and I just needed to see that success before committing to such a big change. Glad my video could show the process and I hope that it will help people feel confident to do the same if they are thinking of it. Thanks for being such a valuable subscriber. Your comments are always much appreciated. Have a great day!

Thanks, it's so helpful. Found it at Lowes. Have a great day!

That plant is "Superbena Peachy Keen" from Proven Winners. Seriously one of my favorites. It does really well in any sunny location! A wonderful trailing verbena.

Thanks so much. Yes, he really does like to help and work in the garden. In fact, that why we decided to name our channel "Gardening with the Williamses" because we teamed on a bunch of the projects. He really is a great help and even though he's not seen in a lot of the videos, there are a lot of things that he does behind the scenes to make it all happen. He is fully in charge of the vegetable garden. That's his thing. My oldest daughter takes care of all our Instagram posts. It's kinda cool having everyone a part of the process. Have a great day!

@@williamsgardening Thank you for sharing some ‘behind the scenes’ with your family. So fun to have your children enjoying a lifelong hobby/passion. Enjoy December. 🎄

Thanks guys. You as well. 🌱

Thanks Lina and thanks for the tip. 🌱🌱Have a blessed Thanksgiving! 🦃

Thank you so much. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by to comment. :)

Thank you Michelle. Those plants are great. They are the "Colorblaze Rediculous Coleus from Proven Winners.

Hello fellow Californian! Thank you for that. Made my day! Until next time. Have a great day! 🌱

I agree. These Saffron Finch is probably in my top 3. So great and long lasting with very little issues if any. Yes, those dark leaves are great! Thanks for stopping by and commenting too! Until next time 🌱

Awww, thanks so much Jean. You are always so kind. You made my day. I agree.... it's always so great to have things in the landscape. I feel like if I take up any more space in my yard, Ben, my son, will get mad at me. LOL. He loves his garden space. Hehe! Thanks again for always being so supportive. Until next time. Have a great day! 🌱

I know, I thought about that very thing. So glad you liked the video. I felt like I better do a full tour before I transition to the "clean up and prep" videos. :) Thanks so much for stopping by! 🌱

Lina! Thanks so much and what a wonderful idea. I sure would have an amazing splash of color. You have a wonderful weekend as well. Hugs! 🤗 🌱

Hello there. Yes, me too. I’m glad I have them a shot this year. I know you will enjoy them too. Take care and thanks for stopping by. 🌱🌱🌱

Hello there and welcome. So glad to have you. It is so great to connect with other gardeners like you from the UK. :) Thanks so much for stopping by. Until next time! 🌱

Thank you for that. Absolutely. :)

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for stopping by and sharing that. Yes, I will definitely be looking that up. Sounds like an amazing plant. Also, I checked out some of your videos and they are great. Love how you are the grower and the retailer too. Lots of respect to you and all you do. Have a wonderful day!

@@williamsgardening thank you for the compliment. I wish I had more time to do videos but it is fun. I think you’ll like a lot of the Main Street series. I wish some of the plant breeders did more marketing like Proven winners does but then their costs to the grower would go up I suppose. Check out Ball seed on KZbin to see their display gardens when they have their open house. It’s quite inspiring

Absolutely. Will do! 🌱🌱

🌱😀🍂

My pleasure 😊 I feel like I'm always learning like everyone else. I have learned so much from trying these this year. Can't wait to try more next season. :)

Thank you. They are the “Rediculous” variety from Proven Winners. Amazing plant. Highly recommended! Thanks for stopping by! 🌱

Thanks for visiting! 😀🌱

Thanks so much. Absolutely. 😀

Thank you Jean! Oh for sure! Plus they keep blooming for months. 🌱😀

Good Morning Lina. I am always blessed by your sweet comments. Thank you for that. So glad you liked the containers. You have a nice weekend as well. :)

Absolutely! Now you will know how to do something similar someday. Who needs a gardener when you can do it yourself. Hehe!

Hello California neighbor! Yes, we are! I am so glad the video could be an inspiration to you. Each spring, I go into major planting mode and I needed to remember that fall can also be a great time to add color and interest to the garden as well, especially here. Oh, and thank you for the complement on the coleus. I still can't believe there's only 2 plants in each of those containers behind me: The "Rediculous" variety is the one that towers above the "Cherry Drop" trailing variety on the bottom of each container. I just happened to plant those containers up as an afterthought, thinking that just two plants in each might be a little thin. Wow, was I wrong. 😃 🌱 Have a great day!

@@williamsgardening Super!! I wanted to ask which varieties you had, but I didn't want to bug you about it. 👏 I'll definitely look for these in the spring. I know Laura from Garden Answer raves about Rediculous. I think Coleus is severely under-rated. I'm propagating cuttings from a "Dragon Heart" in water for gifts as winter houseplants.✌🌻

No problem at all. All questions are always welcome. I agree… I’m feeling like I should add more varieties of coleus to my garden next year. They add beautiful colors and texture to any space. What a great idea you have. I’m sure those who receive your gifts are going to love them! 🌱🌱🌱

Awe, thank you so much. Yes, you should. I don't know why I haven't planted more of them over the years. They really are a great addition to any fall garden. Have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by to chime in. Until next time... 🌱

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by to comment. So sorry I haven't responded sooner. You know how busy our days can get. Teaching is a big job. Hehe! Anyhow, I agree. I tend to be drawn to the soothing colors too. Have a good one. 🌱

@@williamsgardening No worries, you've got a busy life outside of answering youtube comments! Though, that verbena with the peach is particularly something else!
