What a beautiful yard, you put a lot of thought into it. It's amazing how Shasta daisies spread. I bought 2 baskets on Lowe's half dead shelf just needed water. OMG must have 500 in 3 years. I have creeping charlie weed I pull that weed for hours. And wild strawberries. Love my Hearty Hibiscus have 4. I found when the first sprouts come up I cut a couple when they are 5 inches put them in potting mix eake about a month to root. I grow the 3 foot tall marigolds they route very easy if the stems get damp they get white bumps stick the cutting in water then they root fast. Pansies and violas look the same when they sprouted.

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Thank you! I agree that Shasta Daisies definitely spread fast. Do yours get tall and leggy? Mine do. I'm probably going to give some of them the Chelsea Chop soon to see if that helps them be more compact and bushy (even if that means that they bloom later). That's great that you propagate your tall marigold cuttings. I'll have to give that a try! 🌻🌸

[@michaelh7506]

@@budgetgardeningvita I have the shorter ones. My neighbor told me the newer ones are shorter. The older one she planted years ago they get around 36 inches. Now after they bloom I will measure them.

[@wandaparker3681]

Absolutely beautiful?!!! And the soothing water feature was an awesome idea. 🙇‍♀️

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Thank you, friend. I'm glad you enjoyed it! 😊🌺

[@gardeningwithmamabird]

Awww… You made my day!

[@Tag4lyf3]

I’m new here,your garden looks amazing but my question is, you don’t have deer and bunny’s problems and l also want to learn how to plant from seeds they died or gets long and died before taken them outside.

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Hi there! Where I live I don't deal with any bunnies (fortunately although they are cute) but I definitely deal with deer. The deer go after my roses and daylilies during the winter and early spring but they seem to leave those plants alone after mid-Spring. The deer love my hosta so I try to plant the hosta in areas of my yard where they don't seem to bother them (i.e. close to my barn and house). If you haven't please considering Subscribing to my channel and turning notifications On as I make videos showing how to my process for starting plants from seed, how to care for them inside, but also how to harden them off. 💗💟

[@LucyLemmon]

Beautiful! I really like the Dianthus. Would you say that 90% of your garden is from you growing seeds/bulbs? You have taught me a lot--Thank you!

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Thanks so much! 💞 I think that is probably a true percentage. Really a majority of my garden is from plants that I started from seed, tuber, or that I got one piece of (from family or a store) and then divided over and over again over the last 30 years. 😊

[@nancyyoungs933]

So, how do you protect the potted plants you have in your nursery during the winter..perennials that is?

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Great question! I had heeled the pots into the ground (which means I made a small trench, put the pots in the trench and backfilled the soil around those pots so that the plant roots are protected). That's the biggest reason why potted plants do not survive cold, wet winters is that the pots expand and contract and the roots of the potted plants can't handle that since they are not protected. Heeling the plants is almost like getting the plants into the ground. 😊🌸

[@mrphygrl127]

How do you deal with deer pressure?

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Hi there. The deer do come but it's mostly in my way back garden, so I try not to plant any Hosta back there. When I start really working on my way back gardens this year, I'll specifically plant plants that deer usually don't like. It seems like Hosta is what they go after the most in my yard. So far I haven't done anything special about protecting my plants from deer. One thing someone told me that works for her (but I have yet to try) is shaving off pieces of Irish Spring soap and sprinkling that around the plants that the deer like. Deer do chew the Hosta that I have up along my driveway so I've been digging those up. 🦌🥰

[@dedee6733]

What gardening zone are you at?

[@budgetgardeningvita]

I garden in New Hampshire zone 5b.

[@nancyyoungs933]

By the way, my geraniums look great the ones I stored dry root!!!!

[@budgetgardeningvita]

Yay! That's so great to hear!! I still need to pot mine up into larger more decorative pots. Hopefully soon. Happy gardening, my friend! 🥰🌻
