A Guide To Shade Gardening & Shade Garden Plants

Who went crazy at 7.20 with the music...fabulous planting and labelling them all at the end too was fantastic

[@Halfmoon_AB]

Love her voice, style, everything!

[@margotann9361]

I am a belated gardener and I love it! My Mother was the true gardener in the family assisted by my Father. My sister and l often regretted not having paid attention to how she and my Father maintained such beautiful gardens. Both of our parents have passed now but miraculously, I have developed a love for gardening. I have become my Mother.🥀🌷🌸🌳

[@Rinsuki]

It is in you. You can definitely start now and learn as you go. I say get out there and plant. Not all will be successes but so what. :D.

You are right I and my husband love gardening 🪴💕

Who's here 2021 when everyone had gardened the c**p out of their spaces :D

[@guineverependragon9804]

Katherine Crouch, BBC Gardener of the Decade! My jaw dropped to see her do that old school style of bed prepping. Fantastic and you can see why she earned the title. Also a lovely planting, never mind the camera work.

[@susanm5692]

Excellent video. The best bit for me was near the end when you listed the plants' names using fly out labels that remain long enough for the viewer to jot down a shopping list.

[@shusha50]

YEH I liked it too. a tad longer wld have been ideal. What I did was pause and take a snapshot on my phone that i could look at when i go plant shopping

[@alexg5513]

Love this and oh boy did it look amazing 4 weeks on. Loved how you did the plant ledger on the left of the screen as the camera rolled over the plants, that was such a good touch. Thanks for all the effort 💜💜💜

[@Squee_Dow]

OMG! I wasn't prepared for 9:18!! What a treat! This was an extremely well done video. You deserve major kudos for your ability to instruct, for your follow-through on the results (didn't leave us hanging...yea!), for your tastefully interspersed musical interludes, and for your ability to make me believe even I could do something similar.

[@RandyFelts2121]

Nice touch "Beautiful Blue Danube."

[@shirleysenkler781]

It is amazing how fast they will settle in and grow, I live in the US(Minnesota) dug a new bed in my yard and in a few weeks several hostas were blooming. Had no flower stalks when put in.

[@leeannisafriend]

This video was so encouraging and helpful for figuring out what to grow in my shady front yard. I've been so discouraged in the past and mostly potted inpatients every season to go with my hostas (the only thing that seemed to grow for me and come back in the spring in this shady area). Again thank you for sharing your great tutorial and gardening expertise.

[@patrickkelly7085]

I think the best plants to put in dark shady areas are bulbs

[@darrylwadley2457]

This is really quite easy to do, pity many people prefer to tarmac/stone/brick over their lawns these days rather than planting plants, then they wonder why we keep having floods in the UK.

[@wediafomalazartekie9198]

Darryl Wadley they also wonder why the bees are disappearing!

[@FLIPMODE630]

Sadly I don’t think they wonder about any of it I think it should be illegal not to have 2/3 of your garden as soil or grass

[@marilyncourteau8951]

they don't even wonder...they spray roundup like it's candy on our foods...sorry...you probably are really in awe at the herd stupidity presenting itself all over where commonsense is not a factor in life as we know it now....the new normal isn't going away without bloodshed....doubt all.

[@sharv4448]

You are an angel and this video is heaven sent, I haven’t a scooby when it comes to gardening but I’m keen to start 😬 been on the hunt for something simple and straight forward to help me understand, thank you 🙂

Wow!!! Beautiful job..thank you for inspiration.

[@dorisnoyes18]

[@bluesky742]

I really wish you gardeners who post such wonderful and helpful instruction in your videos would post below the plants used so they would be easy to copy. Thanks for the tool info posted.

Hit the screen in the middle that will halt the video then hit the screen anywhere but not on any arrow this will bring brightness back to the screen do this when the list is on at the end To start video again hit the big arrowhead

[@nancylindman9380]

wow, what a great video with carefully explained, step-by-step instructions! I live in deep shade in the Pacific NW and have a lot of trouble planting beds that will thrive. I'll be using the tips from this video for future plans. Thanks so very much!

[@jaebird789]

I’m looking to buy a house with a north face garden. Is it a nightmare or have you made it work?

[@perikent]

Job is good, Music is excellent. Thank you.

[@gardenjoy5223]

Yes, it looks nice. For now. But in two years time, when the plants have grown, you can get rid of half of them already. Some plants tend to run and overtake. So I just put in extra annuals in the first few years and leave enough space, that I can have those patches of color also after two years. Must compliment you on the lovely distribution of color and texture in the plants. From dark green to almost yellow, this spot will look lively even without the splashes of flower color. Yet, I stick with putting less in at first, to leave room for growth.

[@JustLouIt]

Do you have a symphony following you around while you garden?

What's the pink plant growing up the trellis at 9:17 ? Looks like a Passion Flower? I need something that flowers on a north facing wall. Ivy so boring! Not had much luck with Passion Flowers on north walls only south.

It's a Clematis.

@@MikeGreen1 Thanks, I eventually figured out Camellia is a good north facing flowering wall plant. Likes to flower in the winter and early sprint too when nothing else will.

would these plants survive a coastal Scottish garden? (Moving to new house where shrubs were all pulled out near driveway, a much bigger area and not in the shade, I dont think)

[@saratraugott4028]

My Aucuba just won't flourish. I Planted three about three years ago in a shady area under an eave. One died one is barely hanging on, all the leaves are wilting. The third plant has grown, but looks very sgraggly and bent. Any suggestions.
