Hi Jenny, you all went through a terrible ordeal but you also found out how many people love and respect you. I wish you happiness and thank you for all the lessons you teach us.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you so much!

[@kathyschwable1298]

Three generations of girls in the garden!!! What a lovely site!!

[@user-on1jd4tl7q]

Good morning! You are so blessed to have your mom working with you in the garden. Lost mine 31 years ago at 66. 🥰😢🥰

[@ramonajolley1966]

Memories are everything! My mom has dementia. She used to be my gardening buddy. God bless you!!

[@msaprilmayo]

I love when you show shade planting! That’s mostly what I have and to me it is such a struggle, so this helps a ton.

[@patgalliart4716]

The shade garden looks gorgeous! I loved the opening of you and Mimi planting with music overlayed and then you explaining what you planted. The plant names on the screen were very helpful. 🌸

[@beckyisabell4324]

You’ve got the best garden partner!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Can’t argue with that!

[@alcg3981]

A Mother's job is never done ... so many different hats in 24 hours!❤

[@shirleystubbs7691]

I love the woodland gardens. I love to see the different plants you have incorporated and the way the are growing and developing. Very Beautiful!!!! Love watching you and your Mama planting!!!! You 2 are little workhorses!!! That’s a really big flower patch!! Beautiful!!! Beautiful!!!

[@maryj7912]

I love that you brought in the shade garden queen(Mimi)! It looks beautiful.

[@cgzone8]

Hello to your Mama, it's always good to see her. Lovin' the shade beds. cgzone8

[@juliafiore120]

Good morning, Jenny☕️The shade gardens are gorgeous 😍and filling in nicely! I am a huge Hosta lover and you’ve got some good ones. Have a Blessed Day😊🐶

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you! You too!

[@kaylac3367]

All of your gardens are looking so pretty! One of the things I appreciate is that you have different types of gardens to work with and you take us along on the journey to learn along with you. For instance, you have this garden with all the tree roots that want all the water and hinder where you can plant and the different lighting in areas. You make it all look beautiful!

[@Michelle-ky8tn]

Good morning Creekside family ❤ have a fantastic day!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Same to you!

[@judyanderson8782]

I think the flooding has exhausted you and you need time to recuperate. You're pushing yourself pretty hard. Take a nap, everything will work out beautifully. Don't fret. Your gardens look beautiful and interesting. I love the unique stone pieces scattered along the way. Makes it exciting to look for more.

[@marisolbrunk5303]

💯‼️❤️👍🏻

[@debmarlowe1204]

Love to see you bounce back. Your hard work pays off.

[@anahart6561]

What a blessing to have your mom gardening with you ! ❤ Glad you are recovering from that horrible storm.

[@gracepeschel3894]

Love your videos. One thing that is very enjoyable and relaxing is the choice of music that you use in your videos. Just beautiful! Keep it going. God has blessed you in many ways and He has enabled you to recover from a trying time with the recent flood. Do not be ashamed to show your true feelings. What you went through would make anyone break down. But you persevered! Trust in the Lord! Alisa’s wedding will be beautiful thanks to all your hard work and I’m sure she appreciates everything that you have done. God bless you and your family!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you❣️

[@MsDisnyfan]

GM! I'm glad you got some planting time with Mimi after the storm settled without recording. As much as we love to see ya'll, you needed to get to work with her to get rejuvenated! Thanks for showing us what you did. Beautiful as always.

[@michaeldouglas8352]

Beautiful! I ordered two Love Story Hostas, can't wait to get them 44 inches wide. Will be amazing!

[@Ane0803]

May have waved at the truck driver and smiled when he waved “back”. Knowing full well the truck driver was waving at Miss Jenny. 😂

[@janeenclark8728]

Thanks for bringing us your beautiful gardens on the daily in real time. Gorgeous

[@ramonajolley1966]

Jenny, good morning to you and your beautiful mother. Thanks to you, my Gardenia is blooming. I'm so happy!!

[@peggyknowles6878]

Hope to see you, next Wednesday! We’ll be traveling back to Jacksonville.

[@kathyhornbuckle4966]

Smart move waiting to add those shrubs till this fall. 😄

[@alanFconrad]

Everything looks beautiful! !.......so glad to see you recovering form the flood.....God Bless

[@LindaMiller-bl9bk]

Jenny your Mom is amazing! What a great help. I bet the fellowship is sweet.

[@risalangdon9883]

Looks fantastic!!!!! ❤

[@theresaburg5881]

Those look gorgeous. The sign garden is my favourite and it is amazing how many different plants you can showcase in that space.

[@petefredrick3784]

It's beautiful! When I visited your nursery last spring I was impressed with your plantings. You've upped your game this year with more beautiful plants! I planted the Blue My Mind at my home in MI and dug them up, cut them back and took them with me to my FL home which are perennials there. They are huge now.

[@sandistolle4874]

Such lovely vistas for ever to enjoy! It’s always a pleasure to see MiMi as well. Were I in your shoes, I’d secretly wish for at least one piece of Unique Stone to be damaged in shipment! 😆

[@SarahKotri]

Inspiring shade garden, so pretty.

[@user-rosesroses]

Beautiful. Ty for great plant description.

[@sharoncoon5439]

Good morning Jenny and Creekside family!! Cant wait to plant. Our last frost date is Memorial weekend in Ohio.

[@stephanieferguson5602]

You guys sure do a beautiful job! Such a pleasure to watch. From Victoria BC

[@lisahowell3468]

Jenny, everything is beautiful! I was thinking some pink astilbe poking up in the back of the shade garden as you are leaving would add one more bit of different texture to that area. Just a thought. I wish I had your knack for making every area look so put together! You have such an awesome sense of design! Thanks for the ideas! Glad to see you guys made it through the storm!

[@alice_rabbit8345]

I have a small woodland area in the back of my garden. It’s coming along but always looking for ideas! Everything looks great!

[@Xyzz178]

Good morning Creekside, missed you yesterday ❤.

[@krisleonard1428]

These beds are just wonderful! Just going to be gorgeous ❤❤❤!

[@karenchisholm623]

Everything is so pretty!! 🥰

[@nancypatterson374]

Good Morning Jenny and Mimi, the entrance to the nursery is looking beautiful. This must have been filmed before the storm. As I live in South Carolina I’m constantly watching the radar. I woke up this morning thinking of you, because we had 2 1/2 inches of rain last night! Praying that Creekside is okay, hugs my friends ❤

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

This was filmed the day before the storm. The beds held up relatively well - just a bit of wash and some sticks down.

[@susiemcgough9917]

Beautiful shade garden! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are so welcome!

[@donnaleekarlson7015]

Glad there's finally a controlled spiderwort. I planted several 8 years ago and they took over my huge bed and lawn, I pulled it out 2 years ago and I am still fighting some of it!

[@maureenmckenna5220]

You are in a tough but beautiful business. Any business that is your own, part of your family, has great responsibilities and great rewards. You are all kind, sweet, thoughtful people and those rewards will come to you in the form of kind consideration for any problems you may have. You have had a very devastating thing happen, but the folks out here love your channel, the information, and the people involved. It will all evolve, you will have learned a lot, and you will survive. The wedding will be wonderful. Don’t worry about the end result, because you have done everything to make it work. God bless.

[@pamelacallaway3922]

Beautiful! I’m so glad you show the names of what you plant. Helps me know what to look for as I do my garden beds. God bless your heart!

[@jcbfree]

Beautiful gardens. Lots of ideas I can use. I can't wait to visit again.

[@kimchristianson5293]

Looking beautiful Jenny!

[@janeanfunk9991]

Everything looks Soo pretty !!

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Shade garden is beautiful. The plants are going to grow in and be so lush and as lovely. Great video ❤

[@rebeccadavis6812]

The leaves on the pagoda dogwood looks like the leaves of a hosta, almost like a hosta in tree form. The color variegation on the "love story" hostas is really pretty; I would like to find these and add to our yard! It all looks really good and the plant information on the screen is helpful. It all made perfect sense and gives great ideas, I put several of these on my 'wish list' to add to our yard - if only we had enough room for it all on our little property : ) Thank you for the video.

[@jenmazz1257]

Love the shade garden Jenny ❤ and thinking of you since the flood 🌸💕🌺🫂🫶🏻🇨🇦

[@jodyeickhoff2237]

You and Jerry are like the energizer bunny! You just keep going and going!!! I love what you’ve done at the entry garden and the woodland garden next door is beautiful. I love bashful Betty and would love to have one. So happy to see Mimi in the garden with you! You’ll get all your planting done,,,have faith! Your property is gorgeous!

[@mariale7821]

What a great way to showcase shade loving plants!

[@user-cp5ht1th6i]

Woodland gardens are coming along looking beautiful and great inspiration for my Zone 4 garden. Nice to see Mimi, your daughter and you all together. Thanks for taking us along.

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Jenny. It looks very nice now but when it fills in I can imagine it will be breathe taking ! 💐💚🙃

[@peggymalabuyoc9150]

Love this video, love your channel! You and your team got so much done and the results are fabulous! So enjoyable to walk through your bedding areas and see where you are taking your designs. Your two stone statues are adorable.🥰. Love me some Hostas so it was a treat to see your Hostas. I have some of the same varieties and I find them to be as resilient and adaptable as they are beautiful. Great job! 👌🪴🥰

[@michaelpeneschi-kl5ph]

Looks beautiful. Shade gardens are stunning

[@eileenchang2173]

Hi Jenny, it’s interesting how I have found that my ferns grow best ‘protected ‘ by by large Emperor Wu hosta. I think it’s due to providing the necessary shade and keeping the ferns moist, where they don’t grow as well in the other part of my dry shaded garden. Hence I’m leaving my fern there as I see little ferns springing up around i 🌸🥰🇨🇦

[@jeane561]

Jenny it was great to see your Mom working with you in the shade garden. The shade garden is so beautiful, love the huge hostas. The Lemony Lace Elderberry is a favorite of mine. It’s a great plant that doesn’t mind being whacked back. Mine grows so much much each season I really have to prune it back in the Fall then it comes back beautifully. Love and blessings to y’all.💚💛💚

[@kellirobinson2858]

Looks great. I can't wait to see what it looks like mid-season!

[@DylanFan51]

Love your shade gardens! I have lots of shade in Atlanta, and you give me lots of ideas of plants and flowers that will work in shade. Can't wait till fall when you add evergreen shrubs to the nursery entrance. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are so welcome!

[@taylorswf23]

The hostas in that bed are dreamy! It was this bed and your videos that convinced me I needed to put Sum and Substances around my large oak tree.

[@taylorswf23]

Oh! Blue Angel! That makes me excited. I just put one in to contrast the foliage of my sun king and soft caress mahonia.

[@bronwynodonnell8548]

The garden beds look terrific cheers 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 Bronwyn

[@Blake.Cooper]

Jenny, you and your team are all champions in my eyes! It was amazing to see all the folks come out and help clean up. It's such a sweet treat to see a glimpse of Mimi. Hoping things are getting back to normal. Onward and upward, my friend!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you so much!

[@lyndastevens9726]

Looks really good! I was just there a few weeks ago - I just love this Woodland Garden!💞

[@marilynbaldwin2934]

Jenny you do such beautiful work and yourMom also! Very lucky to have your Mom! My Mom has passed but she loved gardening!

[@karenbrewer3362]

You have given me a reason to start working on my back part of the yard! Thank you!!

[@MichelleSuggs-ls1ki]

These woodland gardens look lovely and so peaceful

[@joanieclyde8812]

Loved this video!!! Great Job Creekside Family!!!

[@patriciawarner9680]

I love the woodland garden! So pretty and calm and cool. Just lovely.

[@pamelacook7933]

We can relate to the exhaustion at the end of a very productive day in the garden and the overwhelming sense of satisfaction. Love everything you have accomplished in this area and love seeing it develop.

[@michaelmalone8742]

Beautiful shade garden designs. I always get inspiration from you 😊 The Creekside shade plants that we got about a month ago have done so well! (NC Sandhills with deer/rabbit pressure 😬) Can't wait to see everything when we are there in June!! 🥰

[@CarlaStahl-bc7ou]

Simply gorgeous! Can’t wait to see this part of the garden as it matures! All your hard work is going to pay off!

[@janetucker4355]

The Golden Shadows pagoda is smashing in that location! The variegated leaves enlighten and energize this bed. Well done.

[@lynnthorson1349]

I'm so glad you're recovering from the flooding so quickly!! You talked about the Annabelle hydrangeas flopping... I put peony cages over my Annabelles. Works amazingly well.

[@carolynshepherd4153]

Looks SO beautiful 😍

[@Edu_Kate]

I realize this video was "in the can," so pre storm. What a beautiful display for your guests to get a sense of how the mature plants will look and they'll be inspired. I understand tired. It's a good tired though. My sister and I spent several hours at a garden center near her and we're both wiped out. This nursery carries lots of PW, wish I'd held off on petunia buying because they had the elusive JAZZBERRY plants I've been hankering for ever since I saw you plant them, Jenny! I could not find them anywhere near me. I am considering switching out the petunia color I just planted with these. 🤔 I spent way, way, way too much on plants today. A car payment. But this nursery has really great prices on shrubs. I got three gallon-size PW smooth hydrangeas for $23 each. I'm regretting putting back the 'Blush' variety because I'd like to mimic the display you showed us when you traveled to the Diply's(?) in Michigan with a blend of white and pink smooth hydrangeas. But I'm most excited to plant my new First Edition lilac, 'Virtual Violet'. Oh my word, does that plant smell heavenly. My mother's middle name was Violet after the activity they were doing when my grandma went into labor. Picking violets. My mom never liked her middle name. Sorry, Mom! I'm planting it anyway. My car was full with its sweet perfume...and plants. Lots and lots of plants. It's a good tired.

[@christinenagel8300]

Love the sign flower bed, oh that dogwood!! Everything is beautiful 😀👏👏👏👏

[@terrivance8750]

Jenny, The sign bed has always been one of my favs. 😊

[@margaretbirkemose5208]

Your shade gardens are beautiful and so are your earrings!

[@shirleyvastine9328]

I love your shade gardens, maybe because I have none, but especially the Unique Stone pots and statues tucked in for interest. Sort of hidden treasures. You make me like those big hostas like I never thought I could. Always thought the looked scary!!😂

[@user-rt8rx1pq9f]

Well Jenny you and MiMi's conscientious efforts paid off as your shade garden is lovely. I like the statuary & small bird house on your tree that add a bit of whimsy to your garden. Thanks you for the information on "sluggo bait" which I will apply to hostas in the backyard that is one of Michael's favorite perennials. Love your pagoda dogwood,lady in red fern, acuba's japo(colors and leaf shape) and the list goes in and on. You give me some ideas as what I would like to plant in the garden 6 b.and finally our landscaper will be here this week with a soil compost mixture. No more rain tomorrow! Only 21/2 week to the wedding but even under pressure your love for your garden keeps shining through. Thanks again, for all the helpful information.

[@user-dz6pk3mo8h]

I love this woodland garden. I am sure it will help me in designing my own. Thank you so much.

[@lynnnelson7572]

The shade bed is looking great! Your comments about the Blue My Mind in the past, have helped me to try in a hot spot in my garden this summer . I can’t wait to see how they do when the heat hits. Thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge every day!

[@ShadowNight-kt3dz]

I love blue my mind! Here in central Louisiana, zone 8b/9a, it is an amazing perennial. I plant it in all of my bed with rock, and I never have to worry about it again; even in winter, when it looks dead after a hard freeze, I leave it alone and it comes back up from the roots quickly. It gets slightly bigger each year.

[@jacquelinelykins4485]

I have enjoyed the shade garden tour. Will you please show us again when it starts filling in?😊

[@maureentaylor4771]

I love your videos. Very informative with lots of ideas. I’m in zone 9a, Houston, TX.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@vlink4071]

I so love your shade gardens and can’t wait to see how they grow!

[@sharonrose818]

I love your shade garden videos! You've given me new ideas and shown me how to embrace my shady front yard with mature tree canopies. Your mom's garden and your thoughts about using what you have reminded me of a tree stump I saved last year. I will be incorporating it with a grouping if 3 pots in the shade this weekend! Thank you!

[@evalindell2757]

Yes! It made both sense and it was soo inspirational! I live in a much cooler area but the whole area is soo beautiful and as I live in the woods so so many more ideas! 👌 Thank You!

[@ryanphilyaw8707]

Been checking your videos out. Everything is beautiful. I’m sorry to see the storm damage a few videos back. From High Point and…I know. Yesterday’s rain just soaked everything and ticked off my cardinals. My question is…where is Babe????

[@thebloomingidiot9715]

You are awesome
