How I Water All of My Potted Plants!

[@ximenabaughman3592]

When you do what you love and love what you do, there is not such thing as "to much work". Your garden is a reflection of yourself, beautiful, inviting and cozy; i am a big fan of potted plants because it gives me the advantage and opportunity of moving things around according to my mood 😆

[@diamondslashranch]

I start my day watering my garden. It’s a lovely contemplative time for me. Great video!

[@00008Amanda]

Omgoodness !! If I had a garden like this, I would be in heaven!!💜💚

[@trkrgal73]

I feel the exact same way Linda, it's not "a chore" to me either. I live in New Mexico and go out in the mornings and water my potted plants, veggies, and perennial garden. I also do it in the evenings too, when we get really hot down here. It's so peaceful and therapeutic to care for and see your plants / veggies thrive everyday. I just love it! Thanks for sharing, I love your garden! :)

[@gracev2335]

Also realizing why you use the pebbles in your pots. You can use the stronger water spray when watering from afar without kicking up the dirt. Love it!

[@vinetiamcgreevy9609]

Linda you are truly a wonderful gardener. I feel the love. 😊 Liked your idea of a bucket of fertilizer water and emersing the plants. Also loved that garden hose nozzle the way you can start and stop the water flow. Thank you for making my day more fun when watering my plants. 🌸

[@laurajanesherman9126]

Lovely plants and garden! I love working in my gardens and don’t think of it as work. It’s also a form of therapy that takes my mind off the everyday stresses.

[@patriciadifferding7688]

Another fun video--sharing your thoughts on watering while giving us a partial tour of your garden. Now I see how you keep all of those plants thriving in ever-thirsty clay pots. Thanks.

[@janicemurphy4373]

Linda I love the way you handle your self it’s what you love it’s your job,!!!!!!!

[@marietownsend8396]

Thank you for the fertilizing in a bucket tip. That was a new one for me. And thank you for the stunning garden tour you gave a few days ago of your friends yard. Linda we need this. Thank you Oklahoma.

[@seanemmettfullerton]

Bless you, Linda. We soooo appreciate your joy and upbeat "can-do" attitude :)

[@crowquilltarot]

Although I live in a different part of the country, and different climate, I am learning so much from your videos. I have the opposite schedule: I have to work indoors in the morning and go outside in the afternoon AFTER IT'S WARM ENOUGH! Thank you; you are delightful.

[@annadavis6361]

When you love to garden like some people do , watering can be a pleasure. 🌈

[@patriciabaines5832]

I absolutely love your videos. They are so helpful and informative and give me lots of gardening ideas that I have never thought about doing. 🌺🌸🌼🌹

[@Calicokit101]

You have cultivated an absolutely beautiful garden....you should be very proud!

[@GavinAndShea]

Hello, I would have never guessed that you water so little in your climate. I absolutely love your garden design; your garden is breath taking. I will be incorporating more containers in my garden this year for some height. Looking forward to seeing more! Thank you and best wishes, Dorothy

[@LindaVater]

Thanks Dorothy!

[@2boys1man4me]

I love your garden! What a beautiful sanctuary

[@LindaVater]

Thanks for visiting!

[@DixieGirl9876]

I too enjoying watering my plants with the hose. A good way to check and see what needs doing, pest control/trimming/weeding and so on. Also to just slow down and enjoy the time and the garden.

[@TheMiddlesizedGarden]

I love the hose box - I haven't seen anything like that in the UK but I can see that it would work better than a cart. Lovely video, thank you.

[@victoriajimenez2161]

That’s great to know,I used to do watering my plants same like you,is very relaxing and the only way to have what’s going on in my garden and flowers pots,Tku for your time to sharing gardening ideas,God Bless You!

[@haywardgarner4850]

The metal tray table you use to keep water under the topiaries is brilliant. This fixes an issue in one of my garden rooms. Thanks!

[@shelliecornatzer]

I love watering my plants, if you don't enjoy it you may not be that into gardening. For me it is almost like meditation to water and deadhead my plants.

[@kyrad6543]

Same for me. I enjoy the daily ritual of watering my container plants.

[@yellowstonekv959]

I agree. It is not work to me. Taking care of my garden gives me peace. I work full time, but now since pandemic, from home. I love sneaking out for a few minutes and on my lunch break to enjoy my labor of love❣

[@NicoleSmithGardening]

Agreed!!! 💯

[@nestof3]

I enjoy it until summer when I’m hopping around trying to keep the mosquitoes from devouring me.

[@emmanueltoney8428]

I agree. It's very therapeutic.

[@lionswimmer4637]

Love your channel, your beautiful, natural taste; your creativity, practicality, and personality! Wow. What an amazing garden!

[@abiering]

Very helpful advice. Love puttering in garden early morning also.

[@edstud1]

You're so organized, I love it!

[@shirleybrenton884]

Thank you Linda for sharing your talents!!!!

[@jeane561]

Great info. Love the hint about putting small pots in tub of water .. I enjoy watering early in the morning too❤️😊❤️

[@patriceyoung7479]

I just love her videos so much. I can relate to her level of gardening. I used to watch another channel where the sweet couple have gone so out of control with their property it’s too much.

[@suepercy5237]

I'd love to see drone images of your gardens one day please

[@amybedrosian4106]

I just found Linda on uTube🙏. Your backyard is fabulous and your tour has been delightful.

[@neidys1425]

Didn’t know that you can put that many plants together and look so beautiful!!! I love your place!!!

[@sharongrimaldi8958]

Besides pruning, watering is my favorite activity because it allows me to spend time in my garden with my plants. You can use this time to take in the beauty of plants, relax your thoughts and observe their health and catch things before they become a problem. It doesn't feel like work to me, but gardening is my passion and I don't consider it work.

[@beverlyasleson3321]

That was great I love watering my plants I just started my flower bed a year ago so my plants are now getting established. One day I would love to have more potted (furniture) plants in cement pots like you. I did splurge and bought my first aqua pot (Jack Barnwell) in Matt black.

[@clc1302]

Thanks Linda! Great video! You make it seem so easy and stress free!

[@Tan_Z]

Looks like a little piece of paradise!😍

[@Philippinestreeclimber]

Plants are like human they needs care. Thank you for making this video mam.

[@peggyrannick7812]

You’re so inspiring Linda. I’ve been gardening for years and enjoy your technique..it’s new and refreshing. Thank you.

[@audreysweeney5338]

I love the different textures and greenery in your yard. I love the different varieties of different shrubs. Beautiful!

[@_hometv7894]

I learned how you water plants. I like Korean wildflowers, I saw your video informative. Thank you for making a good video.

[@ruthmccauley8546]

Thank you for sharing your watering schedule. I agree with you that watering is a cool and relaxing activity that I also enjoy.

[@RosaLopez-zw2ff]

I truly enjoy your videos and your garden is beautiful. Today's video gave me some good tips, Thank you!

[@godschildyes]

Definitely enjoyed this! Such a pleasant delight and I love the sound of watering! ❤

[@Thewhimsicalgarden]

Love hand watering my garden, so relaxing.

[@janewilliford2989]

Such a great video. Thanks, Linda.

[@anne7441]

Thank you Linda. I so enjoy your garden!

[@HaNguyen-oq9iu]

You have got a gorgeous garden.. breath taking

[@virgochic8415]

I agree with this analogy. Cleaning up my landscape is like cleaning up a room inside the house. Gotta keep it tidy.

[@leobardochavez7190]

Great watering tips loved it

[@jenniewilliams1668]

Thanks for the lovely visit to your garden - I love watering, though this year I'm putting in a complex irrigation system so we can go away - I'm gonna include pots in this system - but I may put all the pots in one place when we leave to keep it simple. I really like your 2 week soak with liquid organic fertilizer - what a great idea. Warmest regards Jennie

[@barbarabrummett4548]

I always enjoy your videos so much

[@leia2373]

Great tips and ideas for how I can better water (and feed) my plants thank you : )

[@rachelg7371]

Great tip about starting with your hose all the way out to prevent kinking. Brilliant! Why didn’t I think of that? 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@sharonmcmann-morelli4896]

really love the pebbles you put on the tops👍🏼

[@razvanmihai3805]

Hi Linda , this is very pretty..Love that window box sooo much ❤️❤️❤️

[@brendafleet9815]

This video has been so helpful ❤️ because obviously I’ve been over watering way too much. Thank you!

[@doloresramirez3289]

Love it..great info.. 🌹❤🙏I was viewing a couple of other channels and noticed one lady wearing flip flops and planting and another one wear water boots. I just thought it was funny people asking you about your gardening wardrobe..lol..oh well..Take care Linda.🙏

[@tc-gd8ln]

so lovely and relaxing. thank you.

[@anafrmboca]

Hi Linda. I tried your dirty glove method to age pot. It worked great !!! I even dirty up some small boulders I recently purchased. Love it. Thank you

[@MegaJansue]

Thank you so much. Your garden is just beautiful!!!♥

[@joanwilson450]

I really do love ❤️💕 love it. I have a small garden and this is what I do every afternoon very much relaxing.

[@jakkkedwards9714]

Beautiful garden & great tips! Thank you!

[@1955missellie]

Have you written any gardening books? I could picture a nice "coffee table" book of your garden with all kinds of tips and photography....maybe featuring various seasons.

[@sanctuarybloomsnicole3714]

A coffee table book titled: “Growing Furniture and Throw Pillows” by LV 😉 Cute categorizing system! 😀

I have to hand water a lot in pensacola fl I find it very meditating I have to watch myself not to overwater but since our rain is so lacking now it’s a constant.. I also adhere to ur method and love the adjustable spray wand!! Thanks for affirming my methods!!!! 💕

Interesting submersion technique

[@jamiecurley8425]

Great teacher! I have learned a lot from your videos.. thanks!!

[@bluesky7226]

Watering is relaxing. When I water I use a slower stream and a gentle spray to make sure the pot is fully saturated. Most plants, in pots and the ground, die from shallow watering. Your soak bucket is a great way to water the topiaries. 😊

[@carolxyz8749]

Beautiful Garden(s)..... Linda- you and your space are so inspirational 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

[@saschacat]

I love hand watering because that way I can see if there are any bugs or problems as I have a really large garden with areas into which I don't go on a daily basis.

[@audreysweeney5338]

How long did it take for your garden to get that beautiful?

[@LindaVater]

About 6 years. Une lived here for 30

I use the same hand nozzle and it is a water saver I did switch to a metal hose 150' long...extremely light weight and no kinks and easy to put up

[@ginafriend1690]

I'm down with the watering techniques, mornings or evenings depending, but like your nozzle better for not having to use my thumb! I'll have to get! I learnt Lavender Topiary loves water. I'm just keeping mine indoors now. She doesn't like the Hot Full Sun on her and thats what my deck gets the majority of the day. She's content now! 😊 My English Lavender doesn't seem to mind the full sun on the otherhand 🤷‍♀️ .. go figure! Nice tip on deep watering. Thank you Linda! :)

[@magorzata8312]

Im here for the first time, Your Garden is amazing❣️ I do enjoy it❣️😀🌱

[@nestof3]

I find I have to water my pots for much longer to keep them going in the summer - especially, of course, those in full sun. Some days, I have to water twice.

[@emmanueltoney8428]

beautiful garden! I noticed you put gravel rocks in your planting pots. So that won't harm the plants? You just gave me an idea to do. Thanks!

[@M4R1N4]

The gravel keeps the squirrels from digging my pots, and might keep a bit more moisture in the soil.

[@candicedirckze8142]

fantastic..lots of lovely tips

[@wandaparker706]

For your baskets used to hold plants spray them with polyurethane to help them a longer life outside. Anything to keep water from dissolving them. I live in Houston where we have lots of water and humidity.

[@elizabethstone4022]

Love looking at your beautiful plants, Linda!! How often do you water during the hot midsummer? How often do you feed your plants?? Love all your pots!!

[@brigittahoffmann9283]

beautiful, what a great and amazing garden; something extraordinary :)

[@ladymilady3073]

Dear Linda. May you make video about planting in concrete planters. Do you sealed them from inside? I heard that minerals from concrete can kill the plant. Sorry for my grammar, but English is not my language. Thank you.

[@michaliareeton3247]

Loved your video today very helpful beautiful garden

Yes! Merry boots, Hunter, Joules, Dover Saddlery

[@sjones6507]

Hi Linda! Love your videos! I’m curious, do you use a different soil mix with your ‘furniture’ potted plants than your ‘throw pillow’ potted plants? Or simply use the same potting mix for all? TIA! Keep up the great videos!

You’re so beautiful and elegant and your garden 🪴 omg is gorgeous 😍

Thank you for being so specific. I appreciate your techniques. Could you do the same thing and explain how you fertilize?

[@lincasteel-butler531]

What do you do about fertilizing? Do you do this each week, using what?

[@cindyski4413]

Fun! Very relaxing! 😊

[@MsRedPontoon]

You are my Garden Watering Twin😃😃

[@rosemarynguyen6793]

Hi Linda! I love your beautiful garden! Where did you get the concrete planter and the wicker basket? It’s the first “furniture” plant that you watered in the video. And is there a secret to prolonging the longevity of the basket? Where did you buy the pot and basket? What are some examples of plants you water to knock odd them mites and aphids? What is the water rate per gallon per hour is your drip on? I just installed mine and have no idea! I need that hose holder and hose! The handheld sprayer helps me a lot, as I have tendinitis! Thank you!

[@jameswilmot4537]

Lovely Hydrangea plant at 14m. I've grown cuttings for Hydrangea, Hebe, Buddleia, Spirea & Lavender. Most of these are on my channel header and I made a new Hebe video which shows these cuttings on their journey into big shrubs/plants. Happy Growing :)

[@mike1968442]

My garden looks similar, but my trees are fruit and veggies. It’s my 30 minutes of relaxing, clear my mind of the days tasks. My favorite part is under my arbor where I just reach up and grab a handful of grapes.

[@annfowler7368]

Hi ! Do you have a video on how you keep your lawn so gorgeous?? I’m obsessed.
