[@JoyintheGarden-Iowa]

Such kind words. Thank you. Sometimes I look back at old photos and it’s so fun to see how things have evolved.

[@lianeabeyta4515]

The circular patio, surrounded by those gorgeous shade trees is breathtaking! All her choices in boxwoods, plants, pots is stunning. It looks like something out of a magazine. I bookmarked this video as my someday dream garden. The hardscape is also incredible!

[@GardenGateMagazine]

So nice of you. We are glad you found inspiration from it.

[@JoyintheGarden-Iowa]

That is so wonderful to hear!! I’ve learned so much along the way and have so many new things to try in my head.

[@gmama8662]

It is so refreshing to see avideo where you allow room for the gardener to speak! I love it! Others just gab through the whole thing. I like your quiet style.

[@GardenGateMagazine]

[@myrusticgardens]

This is SUCH a stunning garden. I absolutely love Joyce’s color palette and plant choices, particularly in the front gardens. Concorde Barberries are a favorite of mine, as are summer alliums and Bobo Hydrangeas!

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Thanks for watching! Joyce has done such a lovely job creating this garden. You can't go wrong with allium & hydrangeas 🌼

You’re most welcome!!! I took like 30 pics while watching 😂 I’m like “oooohhhhh oooooohhhhhh ❤️👩‍🌾” Been gardening for over 30+ yrs and I appreciate a fabulous garden!!!

[@JoyfulJerseyGardening]

Soooooo beautiful! Love the layering, wonderful combinations of color and texture. I would live on the back patio, as I’m sure you do.

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Thanks for watching!

[@JoyintheGarden-Iowa]

The back patio is my dreaming spot❤ - I love to sit back there and think and plan the changes I hope to make in garden.

[@conniethingstad1070]

It’s so beautiful. You’ve done a great job! I love the patio area. I saw more flower beds in the back ground there.. could there be a part 2 to come? I need to add some more evergreens to my beds.. thank you for allowing us a peek inside your world. 😊♥️

[@MaggiefromChicago]

Joyce, I have to confess - I'm "borrowing" your idea of pairing concord barberry with lamb's ears. It's absolutely gorgeous! I really enjoyed seeing the tour of your garden. Thank you!

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Glad you enjoyed the tour!

[@lizmiller8084]

[@eleanormarcellus8676]

GORGEOUS!

[@GardenGateMagazine]

We agree! Thanks for watching.

[@kathleenberkheiser264]

This is my favorite garden of any you have featured. Joyce is a delightful lady and a very talented gardener. I live in a very similar climate and would like to know what kind of trees she planted around her circular paver stone patio to bring shade into her garden. Thank you for sharing this garden with us.

[@JoyintheGarden-Iowa]

What kind words❤. I have a Redbud and two Chanticleer Pears. I love the Redbud, but would probably choose something different than Chanticleer Pears if I were doing it today. The size and shape is great but they can tend to not have a tree ‘leader’ which can create issues in a storm. So far so good. If I were doing it today I would have another Redbud or a Serviceberry tree.

[@kathleenberkheiser264]

​@@JoyintheGarden-Iowa Thank you for answering my question about your trees. I have been considering an Autumn Brillance Serviceberry. I have heard they are wonderful trees. I also like the Redbud, but am not sure it would do well in a southern exposure.

[@GardenGateMagazine]

For sure! Thanks for watching!

[@nsauve7000]

I got so many ideas from this wonderful garden. I am now motivated to get back out to the garden.

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Thanks for watching! Joyce has so many practical tips to share, glad you were inspired 🌻

[@GardeningSpirit]

What an absolutely gorgeous garden!!

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Yes it is! Thanks for watching.

[@wildflowerwind6941]

In the back circle paver garden, it would look so great if you put the containers that are on the ground up on the top of the square paver posts next to them. That patio is just beautiful. Very well designed.

[@ruthd2261]

Oh, yes! 😍

What type of trees are right next to...abutting the circular patio?

[@phuongphan-mcmanamna3781]

Thank you for this garden tour- great video and interviewer. Joyce, I just subscribed to your KZbin channel. Please do a fall garden tour. I LOVE your gardens- so stunningly beautiful. Now one of my favorite gardens. Please include a link of the arbor you used. Do you recommend it still? I plan to have a pink Eden rose on one side and a clematis in the other side. It will be on the north side and gets part sun. What clematis would you recommend that would bloom the same time as the Eden rose and goes well with it? TIA

[@GardenGateMagazine]

Glad you enjoyed the garden tour!

[@Sidra3567]

Absolutely gorgeous. I love the foliage plants in combination with flowering perennials. Would you be able to share the name of round green and yellowish foliage plant behind bubble bath allium? Thank you

[@Lupo-ie4cu]

Maybe fertilizer may help the hydrangeas bloom?

[@JoyintheGarden-Iowa]

I fertilize every spring but I was just watching something recommending liquid fish fertilizer when they start to bloom. I think I’ll add that fertilizer to my routine next year.
