Thank you for keeping gardening REAL 😊

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are so welcome!

[@kimgaivin9208]

It makes me feel so much better to see your real life garden. I’ve only been a gardener in 7b Northern Alabama for 3 yrs and I’m still learning what heat and humidity does to plants. Realizing that my annuals have been growing now for 6 months. No wonder they don’t look prime anymore like someone’s in an area that doesn’t get to plant until Mother’s Day or later. Thank you for keeping it real and honest.

[@BCBRENDA]

Thank you for keeping it ! This is why I tune in to your KZbin. In real life, things are not perfect.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are 100 percent correct! Southern gardens are a whole other beast than gardens in areas with shorter growing seasons. Be inspired by others but don’t fall into the comparison trap 🥰

[@elizabethescher5445]

I love your honesty and down home common sense, Jenny! Love your enormous gardens.

[@tinam9844]

I just love your personality lol just keeping it real with us. You are so RIGHT if gardening was always supposed to be perfect we wouldn't learn from our mistakes and won't be as fun! Cheers to you for keeping it REAL with us!

[@sandistolle4874]

Fall gardens are supposed to look as they do. Mother Nature’s reality check! Bryanna declared “It’s Stick Day!” 🐾🐾

[@heidijones1516]

Thanks so much for keepin' it real Jenny, I especially appreciated seeing the dahlia patch! This is my first year with a section for dahlias. The flowers have been beautiful but I cant say much about the foliage. Next year I think iĺl add zinnias in between to help hide some of that funkiness. You are a sweetheart with a good outlook and fun sense of humor!

[@lindathompson8100]

I just love that you show us everything, my garden is also tired. Have a great day Jenny and ALWAYS love seeing Brenna doing her thing.

[@vnickcolvin4971]

I Looked up meaning from The Georgia Gardener, “…I was raised in S.C. and graduated from Columbia College( a girls’ college) in Columbia, SC in the early ‘60s. At college I learned the word “surcie”. It meant a small gift such as thinking of you; I love you; this reminded me of you, etc. Yes, it could be your favorite gum or object of your favorite color. My husband and I had two sons. This is a word I used affectionately with them as they grew up. Now I used it with our grandones. The original meaning I do not know but the word “surcie” really gives a warm fuzzy to the receiver as well as the giver.” Apparently used in South, love it. 😅😊

[@thebuddinghomemaker]

How exciting that you were in my neck of the woods visiting Juniper Level! I am so grateful to live only 20 minutes away and visit every season they are open to the public! Their plant selection is so amazing too. So many unique plants!

[@suehaines]

You are SO lucky to be so close. Stopped yesterday on way back to Atlanta from Durham and was ecstatic! Filled up the trunk of the car with plants I cannot find in Atlanta.

[@thebuddinghomemaker]

@@suehaines it's so hard to restrain yourself when there are so many amazing plants you can't find in any nursery!! I definitely feel lucky to live so close!

[@candibellkell]

Thank you for all of the encouragement! You're a joy to watch. :)

[@peggyriordan9857]

"This is real life people!" I love it that you show us the worts and all in your garden. I know sometimes I look at mine and wonder 'what the heck happened here???' It's nice to know that even the best have funky looking gardens at times. Thanks so much for being real with us.

[@regiroettjer3874]

Loving ur garden attitude this morning!! It is wat it is!! It's real life gardening!! That's for sure especially at this time in the season. You made me laugh out loud!! Great way to start the day!! 😊 THANKS😁

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You’re so welcome 🥰

[@judygillespie3242]

I live East of Charlotte and I have said a million times I have an umbrella over my house. It can rain up the street and not a drop ar my house! I have lost so many flowers and can't afford to replace. Your garden is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@mapndo2337]

This 'show' lol was thee most endearing episode of 'Gardening with Creekside' for me Jenny. ❤

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you❣️

[@PeggyMills]

I just love you, Jenny. Your transparency and honesty is a rare thing. I love how you teach us gardening and life all in one lesson.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you❣️

[@callison2138]

Thank you, for showing beauty in the mess. Part of my garden is a meadow style and I really luv it even though it gets messy, like nature intended. Friends and neighbors click their tongues against because it is not neat and tidy. I see the beauty of the mixed flowers and very happy pollinators. Nature is beautiful.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Absolutely 💗

[@MarileeBluhm19]

We had a super HOT DRY summer here in zone 4b and evenings did not cool down as they normally would. My limelight’s despite a deep soaking weekly did not prevent them from turning brown instead of the gorgeous pink they were last year…so even up here in the “cooler climates “ the browning can happen. Oh well it’s gardening! Oh and my hostas look just like yours! Those poor things are tired and just want to take a nap!

[@coffeegator6116]

Happy Fall Gardening and pumpkin spice to you All 🍁🎃🍁🍂🦇

[@mrs.m4702]

Hello, Jenny! I thank God for y’all! You light up my garden life and give me hope to carry on😂. I believe gardening is a gift God has given us and I absolutely love it! Thank you for continually showing us the many levels of gardening…high and low! It has helped me grow soooooo much in my garden life. Thank you and God bless all of you, always❤.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are so kind, thank you❣️

[@PeggyMills]

The trellis in your shade garden is awesome, Jenny.

[@Tracymw99]

Your sidekick is always entertaining 💚

Always!

I’m 6b and my hostas are also declining it’s the length of day that triggers the decline a natural process in the fall

[@doreen9838]

My hostas are getting flowers

[@deannahaworth7666]

@@doreen9838 I have a couple that are flowering as well sometimes I cut the scapes off in favor of leaf /root production

[@lynnelovett8999]

Love this episode because it seams like your real gardening and not so much for commercial gardening. God's speed Ms Jenny, Mr. Jerry, family and employees.

[@victoriaaustin2468]

Total number of plants - 7? Love you all showing every stage of your beautiful gardens. It does really help to see the good, the bad and ugly at times so the rest of us home gardeners don't cry and give up. LOL! Kinda like I did for a few weeks this oppressive summer in my Dallas. Lord, help! And we +are still experiencing 90+ weather. Love Brynna! Just let her play. We love seeing her enjoying her habitat and sticks. And I'm filling my Creekside Nursery cart with goodies! Wish ya'll had the tea olives too. You have sold me on those for part of the privacy hedge along our fence line. Thank you so much, Jenny! I do get inspired, encouraged and lots of wonderful information from you and Jerry! You really help me not give up and throw in the trowel! And hubby says he loves your accent. :)

[@robinrowell1808]

I love "see the beauty in the mess." So true in the garden and in life.💗The dahlia blooms were gorgeous!

[@heatherk2693]

I correctly guessed 10. The climbing sweet potato vine looked great. It was a favorite for me this year. I copied Proven Winners and put a teepee trellis in a pot to make a sweet potato vine tree. I also had some climb my gutter.

[@kimdimond6921]

Your messes are just as inspiring to me. It is a great reality check and let me know I am doing just fine.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

And that my friend is why I share them 💕

[@kkeenan536]

Blessed to be getting a nice, gentle soaking rain here this AM in Middle TN. It’s been so dry (sure makes mowing faster!), but I planted a weeping willow out in the middle of my very long, big front yard a couple weeks ago so have been lugging water out to it every three days 🥵. Hope y’all get rain soon 🛐

[@christietung5534]

Thank you for being so real and down to earth! I am a gardener in zone 9b Northern California and I really enjoy watching your videos. :)

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Awesome! Thank you!

Hi Jenny 🌺. What abeautiful tour in your pretty garden . Have awonderful day .🌺🌻🌺

[@lauravandien2363]

Thanks for this real, the way it is , tour! I always think oh no come fall because of the way the plants start to look. I need to remember that it’s fall and there’s going to be the changes that it brings😊. Love the secret garden in the end of the video. I have limited space and that showed what could be done.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Absolutely!

[@ohkasani1507]

I, too now feel better !❤

You flower gardens are awesome they sure are doing great this fall

Thanks so much!

The caladium is absolutely incredible work of art.

[@Lulu73531]

Hi Jenny & Jerry, THANKYOU for the info on Camellia Japonica flowers going brown on plant and dropping due to water stress. Here we’ve come out of three years of La Niṉa, so wayyyy too much rain. We’ve now gone straight into El ninõ which brought our driest Winter and September on record. I was worried about my beautiful Camellia that budded up but then all the flower buds turned brown and dropped Barr a few. I didn’t even click that it’d been used to loads of water and suddenly hardly any at all and as it’s a well established shrub, I was remiss in giving the poor thing supplemental water. Case closed thanks to your sage and extremely helpful advice. Thanks for all you do. 🙏🏻 Love your channel and wonderful garden advice.🌲🌱🌷🌺 Have a magnificent weekend. Louisa, 😊 From Melbourne,Australia. 🇦🇺

[@geaizee-JZ]

Thank you for the tour! I really appreciate and love your honesty and showing real life gardening, thank you very much! I was guessing 12 plants so I wasn't too far off. Very impressive.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are so welcome!

[@doreen9838]

What a beautiful fountain!!!!

[@LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica]

[@suzettebergeron484]

That black coffee sweet potato vine is amazing! I have to find a way to use that, so beautiful for a privacy idea. As always, watching Brenna live her best life makes my heart happy❤😊

[@babieangels]

Beautiful and encouraging! ❤️

[@neldahargo5933]

I always say my hydrangea limellght white blooms have been "antiqued"

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Love that!

[@galenshaver1422]

Thanks Jeeny for the look at the dahlia.beds. I had seen a few flowers in vases during your Q&A chats with Jerry on the porch but wondered how the rows looked. Your's are definately on the autumn decline, where Laura's dahlias (from GardenAnswer) are in their prime. Big differences between your 7B garden growing zone and her 6A zone. Happy fall gardening to you and all the Creekside family.

[@cathysahlfeld3924]

I love your garden update tours! Rain or shine caladium!! 👍🏽💚🌿

[@kaylac3367]

You're wonderful! Such an encourager. My garden has the good and not so good as well. I'm actually taking some of this slightly cooler weather to rearrange some plants and give others away. Your Pitcher plant does look really good! I love that tiny quick fire! You should definitely clip the rest of those dahlias and make one more arrangement for the year! Beautiful!

[@judyalley1036]

Thanks, I enjoyed your tour!

[@patricialester2416]

I think you're doing great where I live at I can't keep nothing growing unless it's .in a pot and then after that time it's completely over 😭😭

Are you planning to sell that gorgeous red caladium on line in the spring? It’s spectacular.

[@JJ-gt2po]

Did I miss you showing the Fuji Waterfall Hydrangea you transplanted, I think 2 or 3 yrs ago from the shade side of your house to plant the camellia? I believe you planted it close to one side of the pond or creek! It was absolutely beautiful! I think you named it after a friend who sent it to you several yrs ago! Please let me know!

[@MissCorgi315]

I love you so much. Thank you for sharing those messes…. Makes me feel soooo good about my grass Ruffin dahlia patch!

[@sherriianiro747]

Beautiful gardens! Just an FYI - Preen makes many weed killer products that contain trifluralin, which is toxic to pollinators and will kill bees. I believe only one of their products (Natural Vegetable Garden Weed Preventative?) does not. It's so imporrtant to read the ingredients and know which are harmful to pollinators. Just friendly advice to help out our pollinator friends out there!

[@bethjohnson8234]

Beautiful garden

[@Lilliantherhodesian]

I do have a collection of plants I picked up sitting on the porch. My husband keeps saying he wants to get them in the ground but I don't know where they go yet. 😅

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Ah, the struggle every gardener faces at some point!

[@melaniewhittington7857]

Thank you for this video. I have some hostas that I have fussed over and now I’m not worried anymore. ❤

[@FrediOlson]

Jenny, I just love "real". Mine isn't looking so fantastic either. Oh, I guessed 11 plants; one more petunia than you planted. Thanks for the tour. I really enjoy them.

[@susandevinney5867]

I truley really want some of those picture plants for my pond. Where can i get some please

[@susandevinney5867]

Jenny with all those flowers and pollinators why are their no bee hives near buy?

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

There are. Natural ones in old trees and spaces that they love. Our neighbor did keep bee boxes on our property but he is slowly reducing the number of hives due to the time they require.

[@peggy-ann1961]

“Find the beauty in the mess.....Food equals flowers people......The early gardener gets the spiderwebs..... “ Jenny quotes are my favourite! Thanks so much for this reality check Jenny, the garden is tired and so are the gardeners. At least in our northern zones we get 6 months off! 🤣🍁🇨🇦 zone 3.

[@judyanderson8782]

I had 3 dahlias that became a war between me and thousands of Japanese beetles that I hand picked off. No fun, but beautiful flowers. Will coleos, calldium and dwarf sunflowers come back next year? Because I'm in zone 8 South Carolina and my begonias come back every year, I wondered about plants. Thanks for your garden tour and help.

[@nancypatterson374]

Gardening now in the South has everything in my yard looking “Done “ 😂😂 Honestly is the best policy, ✅

Hi from Buena Park SoCal area. Enjoy ur videos. Hv learned a lot. Question: I painted an angels trumpet months ago with ur product. Ty 4 sharing tht knowledge. However one insect tht won't stay away from it is ants. There's a steady line or two up the trunk. Same situation on the Honeysuckle. Any suggestions?

[@elizabethsmolens2752]

Keeping it real...bravo. I always learn so much from you Jenni ( gosh hope I spelled your name right).

[@loribethartist6353]

I have a question about a huge lilac I have… it looks like 1/2 is it is dead for some reason 😢 can I do a “rejuvenation prune” this time this time of year. I have a few blooms on it right now also. I’m m in 7b East Tennessee.

[@loismackie1082]

I can’t believe you think the caladiums look bad, I would kill for mine to look like that!

[@Blake.Cooper]

Off topic, but you are so pretty!! Great tour as always, friend.

[@michaelmalone8742]

So fun. Thanks, Jenny, for always being so real about real life gardening. I'm continually having people requesting tours of our garden and it's easy to get into the mindset that it always needs to look like it looked on a perfect mid-June day. Our goal is to have an interesting garden year-round here in NC Sandhills zone 8A. We are always learning! Thanks!!

A million yeses!
