Happy Birthday to Nate.🎉

[@lindadeclue.2215]

Happy Birthday Nate. Love Hostas.

[@lindamiller394]

Happy birthdayNate. Thanks for the video.

[@JacquiQ]

Good choice for food Natey - yum !!! 🎂🍻 Happy Birthday 🥳 ( My hubs finished doing up an old bench like yours and it looks amazing - we took it to my sons new house, where it overlooks his gully and the river below - now we can go sit and watch the river - so cool !!)

[@lindylou3519]

That dinner looked so good!

[@iraidamanda3465]

Hi Jes, why not put them in the back of the woods if no one wants them.

[@debrawalls1379]

I love watching your plant videos as much as I love watching your sister's videos about flowers! Please keep on teaching me about plants.

[@janiceeastman2610]

Happy birthday! Yum!

[@Toinette2883]

I’m with you certain hostas just don’t do it for me. If it’s not what you love in your garden change it! That’s exactly what I do I want to go out in my garden and love everything I see❣️

[@tracy6756]

First of all ... YUM on the cooking !!! Looks sooo good. Happy birthday Nate! 🎉🎉🎂🥧🍹🎈🎁, Jes, you should do more cooking movies and rock polishing movies when the garden has gone to sleep for winter. !! That would be so great. Absolutely gorgeous hostas planted BTW and that bench looks so great too 🇬🇧 ❤ 🇺🇲

[@laurajeffcoat4731]

Always grow what makes you happy. If it doesn't take it out . A very happy birthday to Nate. Great job on your garden and dinner for Nate. Max is adorable. Thanks for sharing your day.

[@opalrichardson5674]

Yum, looks delicious! Happy Birthday Nate! Was wondering if you should have put the plant tone in with the hostas as you planted them. Plant Tone is a fertilizer and they will be going dormant for the winter. May be better to use Bio Tone instead as it is for the roots. What kind of boxwood is behind where you planted the Diana Remembered Hosta? Love your gulley garden!

[@jesthesinginggardener]

those boxwood are called Green Velvet

Good morning, Jes! The garden and the food look wonderful.😍 Happy birthday, Nate!🥳🎉🎊

[@patwebb6522]

Good morning, Miss Sunshine 😊 thank you for this video. You are so inspiring to me 😊❤ I too feel like you if it's something in your garden that doesn't please you it needs to go. At first, it was hard to get rid of it, but when I did, ohhh, my goodness, what a difference it made. 😊 just this past week got rid of a few plants in my front garden that just wasn't performing as well as they should. Wow that opened up my garden so well. And now I can plant something else in there that we'll look so pretty, and it well rest your eye on something so much nicer 😊❤ so thank you, Jes, you are a special dear thank-you for sharing your many talents with us 😊 ❤ I seen on here many were wishing Nate a Happy birthday well I too want to say Happy birthday Nate 🎉🥳🎂🎈God's blessings to you both and Max 😊❤ have a beautiful blessed weekend 😊❤

[@janeta2559]

Jes, my daughter does that when she gets long on any of her perennials . Just puts them at her curb and they disappear just like that. And I do like that you kept the bench by itself in its own little oasis area. Happy Birthday to Nate. !!

[@icooper275]

I just love that Diane remembered!🪴Happy birthday Nate!🎂🎈

[@tinacolbourneart1091]

Next time get yourself some mesh produce bags and place the bag over the coloured flower you want and tighten the pull string and when it turns to seed or drop seeds they will all be contained in the mesh bag 😉. I did that with my columbine, worked great 👍. I know what you mean about hanging onto plants that you don't love. There are a few plants in my gardens that I don't like very much and I'm also in the process of giving them all away. Dont feel guilty, why hold onto something if it doesn't spark joy, like Maria Kondo says 😅. Love your videos and gardens, thank you for all that you do ❤

[@lindalawrence5975]

Jes, such a wonderful movie. You did a terrific job with those Hostas. Max is having a great time with those streamers. He is a smart kitty. Happy Birthday, Nate. That looked like a delicious birthday dinner. Hope y’all have a great weekend. Take care. Cookie in Mandeville Louisiana

Thanks Cookie

Hi Jes 🌺. Happy birthday to Nate 🎂and the cake and chicken pie looks delicious. I made abble pie yesterday . Jes you can add another beds and plant these hostas. Have awonderful day.🌺🌻🌺

[@melissae.9842]

Hope Nate had or has a Happy Bidthday! Your pot pie and brownie cheesecake looked beautiful!

[@newt52864]

What a lucky husband, Yum !!! 😀Happy Birthday Nate 🎂 I hope some decorations survived before he got home 😉🙀

[@jesthesinginggardener]

They did!

[@michellepollino4986]

Happy Birthday Nate!

[@sevbell8307]

Try them out in the sun...

[@terriejohnson4884]

Hey Jes, love u and your movies. Maybe the hostas would do better behind the shed where they will get more shade. 🤔

[@suepercy8390]

I wondered that too. They are certainly growing well. I have never seen an ugly hosta

[@annwoleben5439]

I have learned so much watching your videos. I am no longer afraid to transplant hosta and other plants. Happy Birthday to Nate! I know he enjoyed that birthday dinner. Max is adorable jumping up to get the streamers. 🤩

[@michellepollino4986]

Love the new hostas. If you don’t love it it’s got to go, so don’t feel bad. Maybe someone else might like them. Lots of zinnia seeds for next year.

[@truthtalker4038]

When you save seeds that bees and other pollinators have landed on, they cross pollinate and you will get new colors. You won't necessarily get the same colors as the year before. I saved some yellow petunia seeds from last year, and you would not believe the different colors that grew from them this year! Some of them were similar to the ones that I grew before, but most of them were totally different, which I didn't mind. But that is something to keep in mind.. I'm sure you won't mind what color they are, but it's just something to keep in mind. I just learned this a few years ago. And if you want to save seeds from any flower, you need to leave the flower on the stem until it goes to seeds and the seeds mature first before harvesting them.

[@sammysworld5485]

Hi Jess. I planted a drift of Irish Eye Hostas on South side of my house which gets partial sun & they are glorious. They come up early Spring & last until Frost. They are variegated, Bluish green foliage with cream/white outer rims. If you can get your hands on these try them. You’ll be stunned. I got them from Home Depot a yr ago small quart size & they doubled in size this yr. I don’t blame you on getting rid of Hostas due to lack of performance. I feel the same way. Im noticing more of the longer lasting variety that I rather want & spread in my garden.

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Jes, I love that you removed the hostas that you didn't love because you're right, life is too short to live with plants you don't like in your garden. However, it took me longer than 3 or 4 years to get some of my (undesired) plants removed. Nate's birthday dinner looks great. Happy belated birthday, Nate. 🎉🎈🎂

[@elmaelmar2761]

Love those new hostas!! Yup pull out things that you don’t love and plant what you do love!! It’s your garden!!🌸💕💕

[@patty8193]

Inspired now to remove a row of hostas along the house that I no longer love! Used to be in the shade but now they are in full sun. So they look even worse now than ever. Think I’ll replace them with hydrangeas ❤

[@pamelashipman1414]

I love your relaxed gardening movies. It has taught me to relax and have fun with my own gardening. God bless.

[@teresakelley-waite7589]

Incase no one tells you; the only way you can get the same flower is to keep the roots or have only that plant to pollenate itself. The seeds from the flower that you love will be pollenated by another flower so the seeds will be a hybird. I do so much love your videos and learn your design thoughts!

[@rhondafisher72]

I do the same thing, if you don't like it.. out it goes. Happy Birthday Nate.

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Princess Jes. I added a few more hosta to my list of need to find hosta. 🎃🍁🍂💚🙃

[@amandasides5033]

When you are getting close to the end of the season and you want to collect the seeds of something write down what it is and tag it. Then you will know.

[@terryspease41]

Happy Birthday to Nate! Your 2 pies looked delicious! ❤🎉

[@joycelynbell1434]

You shouldn't have to look at a plant in your garden that doesn't make you happy... you've done the right thing 😊 Happy Birthday Nate🎉🥳🎁🎈

[@MagdalenaArroyo-cd4ff]

May be too much sun on the hostas that you took out maybe they need a more shaded area , beautiful work great job…!

[@Meng863]

Good morning, Jess. Jesse's garden is really spacious.❤

[@rhondaschenk5727]

It’s okay if you don’t like that particular hosta. Life is too short. Someone else might love it.

[@sandraguarino3762]

Zinnias for new full sun garden? Happy B-Day Nate!🎉

[@denisedelgado3350]

Happy Birthday Nate 🥳🥳 God bless 🎉

[@justanonymous5681]

When the hosta leaves start to shred and turn yellow in your garden, do you cut them all back for the winter? The birthday dinner you made for Nate looks yummy 😋

[@patbryan602]

I cut my hosta back to 3" from the ground so the leaves don't harbor slugs over winter, but I can see where not to walk, or plant, in the spring before the new growth emerges.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

sometimes if i have time. otherwise i just leave them til i get to them which is usually in the early spring. i don't seem to have issues with slugs though so that works for me :)

[@dawnatchley9076]

Love your videos Jes but not getting any since this one😢

[@judymckerrow6720]

I still have to catch up on your previous movie. Things to do in the garden will not wait for better weather, because better weather is not something that going to happen for awhile. I got some raspberry bushes planted, 2 I believe Joan, and 3 fall gold. I still have to plant my bushel and berry raspberry bush, maybe today. It’s funny but I’m still tearing out raspberry starts in my new garden area and planting raspberries where I really want them. I THINK the ones I’m tearing out are black raspberries, not sure if previous owners planted them or they’re wild. I don’t care for them because they have very small berries on them. MAYBE I’ll save a start replant it and fertilize it and see if I can get bigger berries.🤞🏻. I LOVE raspberry almond anything I bake so I would like to be able to freeze some.🎃🍁🍂💚🙃

[@jesthesinginggardener]

yum i love raspberry everything too. Would be great to grow your own too since they are so pricey in the grocery store!

[@deannachurch1103]

Good job Max 👏 Happy Birthday Nate 🎂 I went on the hunt for the Diana Remembered Hostas when you first purchased. I lost my big sister, Diana, 13 years ago to breast cancer. I got three of them to add to my garden 😊 thank you Jes ❤

[@jesthesinginggardener]

awe!! so sorry you lost your sister ❤ Im glad you were able to find some of them!

[@vickiewinfrey2439]

Enjoyed happy birthday to Nate.

[@judymckerrow6720]

I have hardy cactus that I need to move next spring, let me tell you I’m NOT looking forward to that. I need to put it in its forever home so I never have to move it again. It does get some very pretty yellow flowers. 🎃🍁🍂💚🙃

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Im so curious about them, its hard to believe they will come back but we will see

Do your Paul’s Glory get any sun? Any at all ? 🎃🍁🍂💚🙃

[@jesthesinginggardener]

a little bit maybe like 3 hours

[@annkendall528]

Your neighbor was correct about waiting until the flower head is dried before you collect them. They haven’t matured yet when they are green on the stem. Also don’t store your seeds until they are completely dried because they will mold. Good luck. Love your videos.

[@anneclabaugh]

Great movie! Happy Birthday to Nate! My twins have a birthday Sunday. The dinner and dessert looked so good! Have a great weekend!

[@annamorreale9458]

Hi Jes. If your plants don’t give you joy, donate them to someone else or put them out to the road. Someone will pick them up up. I do the same thing and I never feel bad about it. I always enjoy your movies soooo much 💕❤️

[@marky3131]

He’s another thought is to tie a ribbon or string around the ones u want and wait till they are dry. U will still know which ones they are that way. If u are trying to save more than one color use different string or ribbon.

[@lorri3479]

Great idea! I was going to suggest a tiny sticker folded together with the color written on it, but your idea is better.

[@truthtalker4038]

Unfortunately, it won't matter. When you save seeds from flowers, they have been cross pollinated by the bees. The seeds that come from a red flower might not be a red flower if you grow the seeds. It creates new colors when pollinators fly from one to the next. If you have a lot of seeds, you might get some of the same color but you will have a lot that are different colors also. I just learned this a few years ago, and sure enough last year i saved some yellow petunia seeds, and you wouldnt believe the different colors of petunias that came from them this year when I grew them. I didn't mind because I didnt care if they were yellow, but if you are trying to keep them for the color, unfortunately you might not get it.

[@lorri3479]

@@truthtalker4038 oh I forgot about the cross pollination, but knowing Jes, she will want to test it. Who knows it might work.

[@lorri3479]

She may find some new colors she loves.

[@truthtalker4038]

@@lorri3479 Yes for sure! My snapdragons and petunias this year were so cool like nothing I've seen before!
