[@margievaughan2456]

Breathtakingly beautiful. Glad the deer haven’t eaten your roses. They ate all the flowers & buds on mine. It’s funny how the chipmunks just run around everywhere, their cute. Your gardens should b in a magazine Love your tours, Thanks & happy gardening 🇺🇸👩‍🌾

Your garden is like an artist's palette - so many beautiful colors!

[@mareelonghurst1934]

So, so beautiful Jes. You should be proud of yourself for creating this truly lovely garden and to think you created so much of it from splitting and dividing over and over and 50 percent off bargains. You would need to take a week off work to get all your splitting and dividing this year. Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with us.❤

[@debrabeard1830]

How beautiful everything looks! I love that the birds are chirping, the chipmunks are happy and all the other wild life enjoys your garden too! How you remember all the names of the plants is truly amazing! My property has no shade trees i built my house in the middle of a farm field! Im working on getting trees planted!

Love your gardens soooo much!!! So beautiful!! I'm impressed with how you know the different varieties of hosta and heuchera, along with everything else.

[@amyhoff1501]

You have the most Hosta and Heuchera varieties of anyone I know in person and fallow on KZbin , great tour , thank you

Thank you!

You are so blessed to have such healthy plants that you can divide and plant in other areas! Yay!

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful flower gardens and beautiful flowers. That plant that you said was a weed with you little white balls is so oretty, it looks like some kind grass. Glad you left it in the garden. Love your video's ❤

[@helenoleksyn5327]

You’re so lucky to have a shade garden with all those trees. I had some trees until a storm broke them and now I only have full sun. I’m starting to add trees so I can have some shade. Your garden is an arboretum with so much variety. I learn so much from your garden tours. Thank you for your time.

[@rhondaschenk5727]

Thanks for the wonderful tour! Your gardens are looking amazing!!

Your garden is gorgeous Jes! You are a wealth of knowledge…..I don’t know how you remember so many different plants! The hosta’s really make a statement! Thanks for sharing!

[@gracehSF]

I have a lot of shade in my garden and have 3 different types of heucheras that do extremely well and are maintenance free. Until I saw your collection of heuchera and the varied colored foliage, it never occurred to me to buy more. Since seeing your garden, I’ve purchased 5 more varieties. I’m loving the beautiful colors!

[@dawnatchley9076]

Hey Jes. Love your "movies". You are a wealth of knowledge and I love that you shop in your own garden to keep your garden growing! **Question for you: I have seen you split your annabelle hydrangeas but wondering if you can do the same with panicle hydrangeas? Keep doing what you do. You are so sweet and humble and always look forward to watching you, one of my favorite youtubers!❤ Oh and by the way, hardy hibiscus love boggy areas. Was thinking of your new sun area where you have the water issue. You might plant some of those. I have one planted where it is constantly wet and it does fantastic.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

I’ve never done it with panicle hydrangeas. I’m not sure you can. But you could take cuttings from them and root them that way! Thanks so much for your kind words!

Thank you Jes again for a beautiful video. ❤😊 God's blessings. Wish I lived near you just to come see your gardens and to spend a day with you. You are so kind, loving, caring we could hit all the garden centers lol 😆 ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@jenniferhooks2454]

Your garden is looking so spectacular! The hostas, huecheras, and huecherellas look so good together. If I put my huecheras in full sun in my NC, zone 8a garden, they would fry! I have several in containers that are doing wonderfully. I don't mess with them and they do great. Mine don't do as well planted in the ground. Anyway, love your videos.

[@gabyshallenberger74]

Soo much enjoy your content and now I’m planning a vacation to Mackinac Island for next summer because of your videos

[@jesthesinginggardener]

you will love it!

[@bonshe52]

Hi Jes, you should put a trail camera in your garden to record the raccoons. My son has one in his back yard and he sends me pictures of the deer, a coyote and sometimes the great horned owl. It would be interesting to see what the raccoons are up to. When I am playing your videos my husband will ask is that the woman that sings. Yes it is!! I love your gardens!!

[@jesthesinginggardener]

We have a trail cannot needs batteries! Good idea :)

Re: salvia with black aphids. I had the same thing. Started off with a funny curled top?? I cut the top off and discarded it and then sprayed with insecticidal soap. It is doing fine now.

[@lorrainecourtney4589]

Love kniphofia for same reasons as you 😁 love your garden 😊

[@jjjohnston545]

The lady’s mantle can take a lot more sun. Just water them. I had some in all day sun last year and they were amazing. I moved them to morning sun as I was redoing my garden and now some in 6 hours of sun and some 2 hours. Those in 6 hours of morning sun doing very well

[@melissae.9842]

I had to move my catching fire into the shade too! They were getting faded and crispy.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Yes glad I’m not the only one. I was holding out for them. LOL

[@sandrapudoff]

Your Siberian Iris will do great in the low area! They love boggy soil.

Love to see your channel 🥰

[@beckyjones6573]

I love all your hosta, I begin collecting and planting hosta 2018 , but I only have half of what you've got, it looks like you always plant 3 at a time of same plant, love your gardens

[@beverlypatterson]

I love your garden and you have put much hard work into it. your stack rocks in the upper garden are they attached to each other or just stacked. If they are connected to each other how did you all so that. The plant you thought was clover it is edible weed that has a lemon taste that you can put in salads and forgot the name. Sorry! will post name another day.

[@amandasides5033]

Yes the cute grass weed is a keeper. Especially if it keeps to itself.

[@sharonmohon3275]

Hi Jes….im a new subscriber here…I have a pretty small garden (zone 5), and this year I expanded my flower garden to other places…I went to our local garden places and nearly fell over at the prices! Hostas at $20.00! Even some echinacea (not the common Magnus) $20.00 Plant! so, I definitely am going to divide my hostas and other garden plants plus winter sow seeds for next year….plants are crazy expensive now.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Yes for sure you should divide! It’s a great way to get more plans and save money, and if you have friends that have Gardens, you guys can share plants to. That’s always fun. Thank you so much for being here!

[@sammysworld5485]

Hi Jes. It’s amazing how your garden evolved from just a year ago! Love every bit of it. I just adore the midnight masquerade Pentstemon. I planted a similar variety this summer. Where is your Jacobs ladder?

[@jesthesinginggardener]

I have to plant it yet!

[@carriel417]

All your flower beds look so healthy regardless of sun or shade. Do you amend the soil before you do any planting? I believe you said you generally don't fertilize individual plants when you set them in the ground or throughout the growing season. Every bed is just beautiful and undoubtedly attempts to duplicate are occurring all across the country.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

I don’t amend it. The first time a plant hits my soil I fertilize it. Then I don’t bother after that. If it survives then great. I don’t have time to fuss with them. That’s how I do it. LOL BUT I have really good soil so I’ve been blessed to not have to fertilize much. Thank you so much for watching and for the encouragement 💗

[@cindyrae2605]

How about some height with evergreen and deciduous shrubs and/or small trees in that Hosta bed to cover that large blank wall of your house?

[@patriciaschafer3199]

Your gardens are absolutely gorgeous! The big hydrangeas are a show stopper and you'll be sorry and cry if you cut them down...just move the plants at their base to give them more room to show off!🌿and don't put up with those snakes! The hate cinnamon and clove oil! Just soak a piece of fabric and put them around the foundation and they'll go away!

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Thanks! I won’t cut them! I just dig them up and move them so they have more space and then I can have more plants LOL thanks for the tips with snakes

[@christineboes5824]

you have an inspiring space

[@shemikatibbs3507]

Your yard is beautiful. The gully garden inspired me to do a shade garden but the moles have eaten the roots of some of my hostas, including my Empress Wu😫 Does anyone know if the repellents really work?

[@jesthesinginggardener]

No!!! That’s horrible. I’m so sorry. I deal with the chipmunks tunneling and it dries out my roots. People on here have suggested Molemax a Bonide product but I’ve never tried it.

[@lizmerritt2148]

So beautiful, thanks for showing us your fabulous garden.

[@cheryllemons3134]

I enjoy your vide os! How in the world do you remember all the names of all the hostas and heucheras??? You have a beautiful garden and you are such a hard worker. I used to be able to garden like you but age has caught up with me. I'll just enjoy gardening with you by watching your videos!!

❤

[@kcauffield231]

Your gardens are gorgeous! I just recently found you and have been binge watching. Your hostas don’t look like they are bothered with bugs or snails or whatever puts holes in the leaves. We spend the summer in NC and my hostas are beautiful but something has put holes in the leaves. Do you have that problem, and if so what do you treat them with?

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Hi there! I dont really deal with slugs or deer with my hosta. If i see deer or bunnies are making an appearance i spray liquid fence but rarely. I have a racoon that come around and eats the slugs. But he is a little annoying so its bittersweet

[@skrtskit1521]

Your roses may have aphid damage. My rose bush was attacked and looked. I use the dawn water solution and that got rid of them this works on the japanese beetles too. I, also, just spray with water. I read if you plant some fragrant herbs near and of course the trusty nurse or warden Marigold helps deter. I never got to that point. 💖💖🎶🎶

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Ya maybe! They fought aphids and Japanese beetles all last season. I used soap and water too and it helped!

[@sharongauss9298]

Your astilbe are in full sun? They are listed as shade plants. My red one blooms but not growing bigger than the day I planted it. I’m going to move it to a sunnier , wet spot.

[@jesthesinginggardener]

No they are in mostly shade. The white bridal veil gets the most sun of all my astilbe and that’s probly like 4hours. The rest get less

[@cindyrae2605]

God Bless the USA!

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Thanks so much!

[@tinapaxton4231]

If the rose is "Lady of Shallot", it is pronounced "Shaw-lot". I live near a town named Shallotte which the uninitiated pronounce either Charlotte or Shaw-low-tee" but is actually pronounced"Sha-Low-T". I don't have the Lady of Shallot rose, yet, but I definitely will have it. Your garden is amazingly beautiful.

[@sharongauss9298]

I have a red hot poker too. Can they take wet soil, morning sun?

[@jesthesinginggardener]

I imagine they wouldn’t like a constantly wet condition. They like a good draining soil and lots of sun. I think mine like where they are and it’s pretty hot and dry.

[@karen-ep8ou]

A couple of times you said you over winter plants and pots. What do you do with them to over winter them?

[@jesthesinginggardener]

I just keep the pots close to my house but still able to get snow for moisture. And they do fine I’ll show you this winter :)

[@cathywright4133]

Jes - how much sun do your astilbes get. Mine are in mostly shade and they aren't growing 😢

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Mostly full shade. Maybe like 2-3 hours of sun. But mine that do well are in very wet soil with good drainage

[@amandasides5033]

Do you deal with Japanese beetles?

[@kimberly-557]

Amanda, hi 😊 I am in the outer banks of North Carolina, oh my goodness, the Japanese beetles came overnight! Horrible on my river birch trees! We sprayed, much better! Good luck! 🌳

[@amandasides5033]

@@kimberly-557 HI! What do you spray with??

[@kimberly-557]

Amanda, my husband said it was a lawn spray from our local feed and seed. It had Japanese beetles listed on the label. Hate using that stuff but they were really doing damage!

[@amandasides5033]

@kimberly-557 I get it. I use Sevin. This year I am holding off. I have seen a bunch of different kinds of insects. I am hoping they are going to do the trick. They have not been nearly as aggressive as other years. I treat the lawn. This year I found milky spore in granular form at one of our nursery. So we are going to get that for the lawn. I have used the powder form for my beds. I am going to try the granular this year everywhere.

HOW DO YOU GET ASTILBE TO PREFORM LIKE THAT😢😢😢

[@jesthesinginggardener]

Well you have to find the right spot. They like well drained wet soil and hate to dry out. The can take a tiny bit of sun but like mostly shade and cool areas. Ive had some in dry spots and it does horrible. Then I move it around to a wetter spot and they perk back. I don’t fertilize them…but I have pretty good soil. I hope that helps a bit.

[@lindamcgrew3385]

Do you trim hydrangeas after blooming

[@jesthesinginggardener]

No I don’t. I let them go. In the spring I prune them back.
