April Allotment Tour 2022 / Homegrown Garden

[@MsCaleb79]

Nice video again

[@elizabethannecarpenter7792]

Loving all your garden blogs. I am in Southern California, US, and here I get 2 flushes of apples and year because our weather is mild.

[@ThatBritishHomestead]

Love the incorporation of flowers and food! Looks like a cottage garden

[@geofflowton4165]

when i saw you eat that much garlic i was amazed for about 10 seconds lol

[@LifeIsMessyImLearningAsIGrow]

Watching my garden grow a little each day is my favorite part of gardening. Thank you for sharing your garden videos so now I can watch your garden grow too! I love it so much I started filming garden videos too. I am in my 3rd year of gardening and still have so much to learn. I hope we can learn more from each other!

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

Absolutely stunning Katrina 💕🌸💕

[@michaelfk2548]

Just perfect !...

[@michaeldavidson2073]

Magic - thank you. Apples are looking great !

[@theinfinitemike1490]

That sound when you ate the garlic flowers, lol

[@AJWGBFX]

What a beautiful mix of flowers and veg. I'm increasing the number of flower varieties this year to feed my wife's voracious appetite for cut flowers 🌻 Seems everyone has a Charles Dowding 60 cell trays LOL In the 70s it was said that 80% of cars had a Dire Straits audio cassette in the glove box! If only I could think of something ....

[@thangteachinzah2346]

May the Lord bless you.

[@robking4437]

beautiful....white honesty..wow! pink crab apple .... xx

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

It was a pleasure hanging with you in the garden Katrina! Everything is coming along so nicely and the blooms are heavenly! It has been relatively dry here in Maryland, USA as well. Thanks for sharing!

[@itsmewende]

I'm on the shore in Md., nice to see another here.

[@abbey5574]

I LOVE your dress!! It’s gorgeous!😍

[@bristolveggiebeds5310]

Great size chillies/peppers

[@agrosyntrop]

Beautifull and inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

[@wildlifegardener-tracey6206]

Your plot it so natural more of a pottage garden I feel. A real asset to wildlife with the added bonus of providing delicious food too. I love it.

[@وردالياسمين-ب7ت]

It's a really great atmosphere with the roses and your presence.

[@LuckyFigFarm]

Absolutely amazing!

[@BALHAM69]

Thank you the the tour and notification squad 😊

[@nickk.827]

That's a fab lotty!! Love it.

[@carolineholland4178]

That was a lovely video! Such a treat to come home to and watch after a busy morning. Everything is looking beautiful and you have captured that evening light brilliantly Katrina. Thank you for sharing.

[@homegrowngarden]

I’m so pleased you enjoyed the tour and that it brought a little sunshine to your day. ☀️ Thanks for watching and commenting 🥰

We had the wettest April on record in the pacific northwest and it appears to be continuing for at least the next 10 days. I'm ready for a little warmer (and drier) weather! Love you bee dress! Bees have a very special place for me as they remind me of my granddaughter Abbi. Neil in Oregon

[@sandrinefresne6575]

A gorgeous plot. I admire all the hard work you have done. I plan to protect my redcurrants with mini organza bags … it will look odd but the birds can decimate the fruits in a day . Bewaaaare .

[@johnmccrae1102]

Have you ever grown Canterbury bells.They are so delicious!

[@amiransari-qx3kx]

I watch your videos, you work very hard and this month of April it will be very hot in this month also the same hard work 🌴🌴🌴🌴❤️💙❤️💙

[@ecocentrichomestead6783]

I left a bunch of cherries for the birds last year. They didn't come and take them so I eventually got a taller ladder and picked them myself!

[@brianturbefield1858]

Lovely tour, thanks. Makes all the hard work you put in worth while. You should be proud of your garden. Good luck from Brian in Sussex.

[@MsLul123]

Everything looks lovely but the apple tree is simply magical

[@stephenchapman8344]

Looking well.

[@hawk270leadflinger9]

Love love love you’re videos!

[@carmenbailey1560]

What a treat seeing all your garden treasures. The blooms are gorgeous and hearing the birds chirping in the background , we here in Ontario,things are just starting to wake up, rainy and still a bit cool. Thanks for sharing your garden treasures. 👍❤️😊

[@morgaynelove9327]

Greetings from the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state! Your garden is lovely! 🌻🌼🌺🌷

[@BelleRuusu]

Im watching your videos. I' m gardening also but we just have a very short summer in Finland and sometime or most of the time weather is unpredictable.

[@belleringr6377]

Wow so beautiful

[@christinehowell]

I love seeing your alotment changing as the months go by and it looks really lovely. But I get so jealous and long to be able to start growing flowers, shrubs, trees, fruit and vegetables in the garden I'm working so hard on creating. For a number of reasons I can't do it this year - my dream house is going to be built and is going to be disruptive for the next 8 months - so I have to be patient and learn from you each month.

[@relsba]

To use garden tips best, please include country and planting zones. I am in USA, Florida, and some tips are good, some too early for me, and others too late. 🐊🤗

[@homegrowngarden]

We don’t use the zone system here so it’s not something us Brits understand 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@mikesmith-yj3ih]

Thanks for saying it is not to late to sow seeds had a little worry, I bet BF supper has a lot of garlic in it ? before going to bed 😊 I must say how good you are on your editing as well 🤔😊👍🏻It is so good how far you have come on and i do take your tips on side bless you 👍🏻

[@georgemartin9618]

Thanks for allowing us into your wonderful space Katrina. I loved the part where you tried the wild garlic. ...yuk !

[@annabelkus]

A little tip: cover your redcurrants while they are still green. I have learnt the hard way that the birds also like them when they're green, and you will be left with 0 berries on the plant ;)

[@homegrowngarden]

Yes! I definitely need to do this before I forget 😆 🐦

[@felicityjacobs9608]

Lovely video. We are in Autumn going into Winter. I will be watching your vlog through winter to keep me inspired. Felicity Jacobs, Cape Town, South Africa

[@amyjones2490]

We’ve had record cold here in Michigan. Can’t wait for decent weather. It sure was a joy seeing your abundant garden.

[@alalder1533]

Considering we need rain rain rain everything looking good and your wild garlic seems to be in flower early.

[@KnotsOfWonders]

You're incredibly beautiful and no doubt that is why your garden looks just as beautiful too.

[@beagle7622]

I love this site. Katrina is so refreshing. I have never successfully grown vegetables or flowers but find her interesting.

[@moonlightandhares]

Very envious of all that white honesty. It's gorgeous! :) I only have the purple variety here. Lovely allotment.

[@melstill]

That was enjoyable. 🌱

[@azamsaifullah]

Goshhhhh… thank you for the video… bloooooom everywhereee… such a wonderful moment…

[@perjohansson3030]

Thank you so much for the tour. Everything looks great 👍🏻 🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🦋

[@lyndaturner6686]

Lovely to wander round and see your beautiful peaceful garden, your right about the seed sowing , watch other video gardeners sowing all kinds of veg, then you realise they have large electric propagators and grow lights ,

[@michaelfrazer8088]

Beautiful. Thank You for sharing and have a fantastic day

[@locusttreegarden1560]

Wonderful! It always feels festive when you post a tour!

[@kylieky9169]

Everything looks wonderful!

[@robertdean1579]

I have a small lemon tree and a small lime tree in pots. They typically bloom in the early to mid spring, and have ripe fruit in November to December. They winter in my greenhouse. Some years, they get infested with spider mites and/or aphids over the winter.

[@homegrowngarden]

My lemon tree survived the winter in the tunnel ok but I spotted spider mite on it the other day! Eek.

[@simonjandrell5897]

im finding also the cold strange frosty temperatures are anoying

[@trevorwills3356]

Your plot is springing into life and looking lovely Katrina. Why not give Maris Piper a try they're a great all round variety with good flavour. Take care.

[@homegrowngarden]

I have some seed potatoes that I'm yet to get in pots! Tomorrow's job.

[@Katya-zj7ni]

Same here in Scotland, very little rain so constant watering in pots just now. Your plot is beautiful, I’ve got Generous Gardener and Gertrude Jekyll all putting on buds xx

[@hildebergfald2111]

Hello from the middle of Norway. I love following you and your plot. It looks great. I can inform you that it is us who has gotten all the rain…you can absolutely have some of it if you want 😅 Enjoy your spring and your allotment!

[@RGB0703]

Wow I always love to watch your videos and your garden 🥰 Lots of love

[@phoenixtalon13]

Always look forward to your videos.

[@outbackcattleco6311]

Enjoyed your tour looks like a great place to spend a day. I thought your comment on you apple tree coming out much earlier then normal interesting. I use to think the same thing till I started writing down what I saw around the garden on the same week every year. I discovered things didn’t move too much from its appointment time. I learned that red light waves from the angle of the sun determined more when things would happen then temperatures. It would be interesting if you discover the same or perhaps not. I also tried your potatoes in a tub last year worked great, thx for the tip. Looking forward to the next tour.

[@RalfyCustoms]

Wonderful, thank you for sharing 😊

[@dianewhitmire5068]

So beautiful thank you for sharing your garden with me, and the encouraging word about us late sowers!

[@stevendowden2579]

great tour lovely colours on the plot

[@Growveguk]

Katrina the Dalia's will get through the woodchip no problems at all. I mulch mine every year and leave them in my beds, they amaze me each season and I will never bother digging them up as they do fine under a mulch. I'm In Sleaford, Lincolnshire so not that far from you at all 👍

[@UrbanWhiteBuffaloFarm]

Hello Katrina, So nice to see you today. Everything looks so spectacular and we do not even have anything started outdoors aside from chives. I have so many plants started indoors and I am so excited for the time they can go out. Thank you for the super fun bright colorful video. I am very excited for your plot this summer also. blessings until next time bye for now

[@MsArtistwannabe]

I always love your tours. Your allotment is beautiful.

[@honoregale856]

Beautiful video. Very envious! Here in Chester UK the evenings are still too cool but hardening off during the day. Hopefully plants will be out during the night next week to make room for the next set of sowing!

[@papusna84]

LOL,I hate fenel but still plant same one just to look at it

[@on_another_level5661]

Things are looking beautiful. 🌱 Spring came not a moment too soon this year. Take care. 🕉

[@anniewildmush1284]

as usual very nice!

[@enfantenfant5235]

Nice

[@uppanadam74]

I don't know!! A creepy garden statue adds a bit of character too a garden I reckon!! LOL!!

[@backtonature433]

Lovely blossoms 🌸 everywhere 😍

[@michaelnowak2340]

KATRINA, your garden is looking BEAUTIFUL!!!!! YOU'RE doing a GREAT JOB!!!!

[@donnacharm9383]

you have a very beautiful garden my favorite is the apple tree so pretty,

[@bonjouryall]

BEAUTIFUL tulips!

[@cliffordchristopher1]

Wonderful to have a look around Katrina, thank you.

[@prettyroads]

Hello, I noticed you have a borer hole in your fig tree. You really must kill whatever is in there and then block the hole with a piece of wax. Good luck, Katrina! Such a lovely name, such a lovely garden.

[@homegrowngarden]

Do you mean the hole at the top? That’s from where I cut it. We don’t have borer things over here but thank you for your concern! Thanks for watching too 💕

[@yewsengcheong1637]

It has been quite a dry month!

[@beatricezain8234]

I am so happy in your garden. But i could not enjoy this season because i havent garden.

[@pranitalakeram9443]

Beautiful garden, love the colours and enjoy seeing everything waking up with their new bloom, looking forward the seeing the space in full bloom, enjoy the peace and tranquility ❤ from Rockyhill CT USA

[@davewilkes1657]

hi Katrina that was an interesting video of yours and your outfit suits you mind the bees wont sting you hahaha enjoy your evening and weekend I'll look forward to seeing your next video xx

[@craigbeas6111]

Wish the warmth would come so cold brrrrrr

[@davidthescottishvegan]

A awesome & beautiful allotment April tour video Katrina. Yes it's been a dry April but hopefully it's not as wet as last May was but some rain would be appreciated because it's been dry in Scotland too ( which is unusual). We'll probably get 3 weeks or more ( depends on when this drought ends) rain in a few days when this drought ends or may regret wanting rain if it rained every day.

[@samgriffiths1017]

Pulmonaria or 'Lungwort' is an amazingly medical plant for infections

[@tahoeblue2491]

Lovely tour. The blooms and new growth really exciting. Happy gardening!

[@RachelBearn]

Love your allotment tours! So much blossom 😍 I’m very jealous… hopefully my garden will be filled with flowers soon… you’ve also inspired me to try currants at some point!

[@flowerpixel]

I've never heard of honesty flowers before. They're gorgeous! I'm also a huge huge fan of forget-me-nots 💙💙💙 Cosmos (and zinnias) are my backup plants too if everything else dies

[@itsmewende]

I'm with you, foxglove are my absolute favorite flower, absolute, lupines are a very close second. Your entire allotment is gorgeous, I really do enjoy these tours. I actually love that creepy statue as much as a foxglove =^) Have a wonderful weekend.

[@lornapotter3850]

I love watching your tours. Being in the North of Scotland our planting schedule is a little later than yours, I've just planted my Charlotte's and my new herb bed is starting to fill out. Got lots of lavender planted undercover. The two new trees this year, different varieties of Japanese Maple, are loving their new home and growing well. Completely off topic, my daughter would like to know where you got your dress, she's obsessed with bees.

[@eccentricbeliever7]

It's coming along very nicely! I'm surprised you don't top your chili plants tho?

[@homegrowngarden]

I usually do but decided not to this year 😆 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@fareebug8439]

Looks magical 🌷💗🌱💗🌱💗🌷

[@Sacmagique]

ahhh, we have the same tulips! (the purple parrot ones at the beginning) impeccable taste. 😁 It's always a joy to see your plot!

[@adrianlouw2499]

In case you were wondering where your April showers are they are here in the southern hemisphere where it was supposed to have stopped raining by now!

[@TheSleepyMisfit]

So beautiful

[@zoerogers6863]

Your little pine tree could be used as a Christmas tree for your little shed!! And yes I said the 'C' word lol

[@jillmjohnson4606]

I love your vlogs thanks!

[@julitaubiaga7157]

Love your garden so inspiring

[@christinethewlis1527]

Great April tour everything is looking great thanks for sharing
