Backyard Fall Garden Tour - Still Clown College🤡🌺🌼

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

I love how you insert vertical interest throughout the garden Jim....to hell with the "rules" I say. Your backyard is amazing at this time of the year. Your cast iron plant looks sooo healthy and lush. Thanks for sharing!

[@leightodd7335]

Really nice Jim. I recommend your channel to all my garden friends. Experience, common since, not pushing plants to sell, frugal, and just a nice man. Your garden has come along way in a short time. I moved into a new place in OKC about the same time you did and really appreciate your advice to us!

[@bethweidner4252]

I think your landscape is a combination botanic encyclopedia and trials! Much more informative than clown college and just as entertaining! Plant on Sir!

[@fundamental1020]

In a year you have made a garden masterpiece and you showed us how!!! must call you for a consultation. Thank you Jim.

[@sandramulchahey8268]

I've said it before, I'm amazed at the growth in your garden, I'm impressed

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

The dahlias are glorious!!!

[@stacyray25]

Jim are you being a smart ass about the clown college thinglol? I love your personality that has edged through over the last couple of years that I have been watching!! Love your yard!! I have picked up so many tips. We have 3 all on north side of house of course one gets east side and one in middle gets north and one gets west . They all do well. Can’t really see much difference in growth. It is strange because even though my back yard is north it gets as much sun as front which is south because of those big oaks probably.

[@kathleenblundetto1624]

What a beautiful garden tour! I absolutely love your plant/shrub combinations!🌳🌿thx for taking us along and learning from you!

[@notsuitable7954]

I'm living for clown college!!

[@katherinec7698]

Thanks for sharing your yard and expertise once again. Because of you I have really upped my shrub and winter interest in the garden. I look forward to the fall/winter tours. 😃

[@vlink4071]

What a great garden. So nice to see how things come along seasonally. Would love to see updates on your neighbors shady gardens that you showcased earlier this year.

[@L.A.6482]

I love Pineapple sage, a red pineapple scented edible herb with bright red flowers is getting going and feeding hummingbirds and bees in fall, spreads and comes back every year zone 8.

[@dinahrodriguez3755]

Gorgeous! Such a delight to walk through your garden with you.

[@Sunny14136]

Jim, you have such a nice vibe to your videos. Love the Anemone! And wow on those New Guinea Impatiens!

[@janisstuart18]

Still beautiful after a long hot summer, which may not be over yet even with the cooler nights.

[@ytubechannel997]

Awesome mixture of foliage textures and great colors from the flowers. Great tour.

[@dianacagle2545]

Lovely garden! Thank you for displaying names and zones - it’s extremely helpful!!

[@rustynailmendlesohn8710]

Jim, your yard is just a masterpiece whatever the season. I enjoyed this vid. That song during the Dahlia segment nearly brought me to tears. Beautiful. Have a nice weekend you 3. :)

[@michaelcarrshomemovies5491]

Jim, would you share a link to that song?

[@luigi298]

I thought my plant was a cuphea but I wasn't sure until I realized we have the same plant.

[@judymiddleswart9350]

Your beds are just bursting out love your channel and just gorgeous what u have done!! You Jim Putnam have given me such great plant/shrub tips !! As usual thanks so much ! From judy in Pensacola fl

[@Tofog22000]

I want to apply to Clown College haha. So many points of interest, a treat to the eyes and soul!

[@growityourown4208]

Your garden looks amazing! love watching your videos. Keep up the great work.

[@glendapeters8899]

I love my Mona plectranthus! It was in a lone untagged small pot at the nursery and I didn't know what it was but had to have it. I love it for the leaves alone. It has grown in a not very big pot to a huge 3-4 foot plant full of purple blooms. I'm hoping to keep over in a protected environment for next year or to get starts from it.

[@greenrockgarden2851]

Angelonia still hopping with pollinators here, but the hyssop, salvia and speedwell are the most popular. Your garden canvas is nicely painted with the beauty of what you have chosen. Can’t wait to see what you do next! Thanks for sharing! I got the Mona Purple this year. The bumble bees are loving those too. The blooms and leaves are just beautiful! That plant looks spectacular near bright green Anise (BananAppeal).

[@SteveL2012]

Loving this Fall garden-fewer hot colors, with softer colors and strong foliage taking center stage. ❤️

[@steverdms]

Still looking amazing.

[@ainahanau]

Being from Kauai I love the Kauai rose!

[@NewMindGarden]

Amazing

[@miriaflorke6398]

My ageratums only bloom late summer and fall until frost. The reseed themselves. If I didn’t know any better, I would mistake them for weeds and pull them out during the summer. I do like them blooming in the fall as they provide nice coloring throughout the beds.

[@lanipowell7287]

I've loved this series and have learned a lot. Thank you!

[@RevAcres01]

Thanks for the tour everything looks great.

[@laurelsayer7557]

Love your mixed borders, and how quickly they have become established. I'm in the UK and get so many ideas from you on how to use shape, and leaf form/colour. However, I do struggle with some of the plants common names which arnt recognised in UK and have to resort to Googling them. We are probably a 7b equivalent here but my Loropetalum didn't survive the -6C last Winter. The C. Sasanquas are doing ok so far though, with one blooming already.

[@jenniferhooks2454]

The backyard is looking so amazing! You have gotten so much beauty out of your preparation and hard work. I love the garden tour videos.

[@nicoleshaw7104]

I have really added to my yard through your inspiration! I'm in Maryland and get a mixture of all seasons. I've added shrubs in the ground and in containers. Thanks for all your videos!

[@terriklugh2910]

Everything looks so beautiful. I can't wait to see more as the season changes!

[@carlaradke4066]

It all looks lovely.

[@musiktouches]

Jim, your garden is chuck full of interest and beautiful. I have to admit that when you first started planting I could not visualize this outcome. Special shout out to the "squiggly" Japanese maple as it sits in it's pot being magnificent!👏😊

[@jeanninemorgan3526]

Looks fantastic!

[@Les-OZZYTHEOSCAR]

Still looking nice buddy

[@meredith3588]

Please give us an update on your Razzmatazz grape on your next tour. I found one a few weeks after you showed us yours and just want your thoughts on how it is doing this year and any care during the winter. I aspire to make my garden look as good as yours, lol, I have a long way to go.

[@pamelacallaway3922]

Your yard looks amazing! Love how you have such a wonderful variety of flowers and trees. I’ve been making a list of several things I plan to put into my Michigan garden. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge with us. ❤️

[@barbarapareti7706]

Love it!

[@margievaughan2456]

Jim your garden is lovely I always enjoy the tours. Thanks for sharing. Your hard work has definitely paid off

[@shoetoe4311]

I have no luck with Gardenia in Zone 9.

[@merryhaveman353]

Thanks for the update on Tokyo Tower. Love your garden touts, so beautiful!

[@beckyloflen6724]

Beautiful ❣

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

Gorgeous tour Jim 💕 thank you for sharing this with us xx

[@fayahjudah2451]

Nice spread... Beautiful...But geez you smacking your butt off....🤣

[@JimPutnam]

If your talking about that clicking sound in the mic. It is a bad wire in my wireless mic. Got a new one today

[@daisygurl3601]

Wow, you are inspiring so many, me included. Thank you for being so specific regarding plant traits. I am looking forward to adding to my garden so many of the plants you recommend. Thank you for taking the time to post such valuable information. Blessings...daisy

[@asianangie7209]

Beautiful!

[@lblak59]

I was wondering why I don’t have any bees on my Angelonia😏I didn’t know.

[@GardenKath]

It seems to be a plant of last resort for them. I’m just now noticing hummingbirds and bees on the angelonia, now that pickings are getting slimmer here in my zone 5b garden.

[@newarkgardener6187]

Is all of your beds on drip irrigation? They are so lush and beautiful

[@kel_raiser]

Love all your gardenias. I have a diamond spire that has been gorgeous! My other gardenia is turning yellow. Is it advisable to fertilize this so late in the year?

[@origins2437]

I need a ninebark i saw some panther variety on clearance for twelve bucks but was hesitant idk

[@karenpentz4160]

Will you trim up the bottom of the Tokyo Tower to make it a tree form?

[@charleskim5838]

Hi Jim, love your content! Do you have experience with rabbits eating ground cover plants? They’ve been grazing on my Irish Moss, Creeping Thyme, and Vinca Minor. So as a temporary measure I covered them all with chicken wire, which has been effective but is obviously very unsightly. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

[@carolfutch8534]

When you shaped your maple, did you start shaping the trunk in sections or did you shape it all at once? I'm wanting to try to shape one. Do you have a video on how you contorted your maple? Did you plant your farfugium japonicum from seed? If so, where did you purchase them from? I love this video! It's very informative. Thank you so much.

[@fordguyfordguy]

Jim, thanks for all the quality content! Question - I reviewed all your videos on the Cleyeras and screen plants - I need a 10 foot tall (or more) fast growin plant that I can plant about 10 feet apart and that will row together at the top. I'd like to carve a walkway through the middle. What plant would that be?

[@kevinkennamore6387]

Nice Yard. Are Asters perennial in you zone. I’m in 7a. I bought some from Lowe’s and on the back it says -20 To -30 Purple Henry I aster.

[@monique5686]

How do you get your plants to grow so quick after planting how often do you fertilize and what do you use? how often do you water? my plants after 2 years still very small My Sunshine Ligustrum leaves are already falling off not bright yellow :( I'm in zone 8a

[@kaylac3367]

Your whole yard is beautiful. I've enjoyed watching you develop it. How has the sunshine lagustrium done since you tried to save it after the hurricane?

[@JimPutnam]

Great. I walked by it toward the end of the video

[@kaylac3367]

@@JimPutnam oh okay! I saw that but wasn't sure if it was the same one. It looks really good!

[@JimPutnam]

So far! Thanks for following along!

[@Garricher5958]

How long do your Snapdragon last? I always planted them in the Late Winter/Early Spring. Do the Snapdragons make it through the Winter?

[@dorindajenkins7825]

👋😃

[@MichaelOssen]

First

[@jilladcock5648]

Beautiful. I am visiting an area outside of Ashville. Seeing tons and tons of Kudzu and wondering if you’ve dealt with it. It is taking over areas of the rental property I am staying on and I just want to rip it all out. I can see why they call it the vine that ate the south. Have not seen this in Western New York yet.
