Labor Day Weekend Garden Update Tour // Plans For Fall Renovations // Planting on a Slope

[@MK-wm6gu]

This tour was wonderful! Even though it’s nearing the end of the bloom season, your gardens are still beautiful. It was great to hear you thinking out loud and sharing your expertise. I have to tell you that my family is getting hooked on your channel as much as I am. I visited my sister in Rochester a couple weeks ago, and she pulled up something on your channel to show me…although I had already seen it that morning. Awhile later, my brother-in-law, who is quickly catching the gardening bug, called me into the family because he wanted to show me “the spectacular garden” he found on KZbin. I walked into the family room, and there was your sun garden in all its splendor on his big screen TV! You’re on a pedestal the size of a skyscraper for all of us. Have an absolutely wonderful Labor Day weekend with your family.

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Yes!! I have lots of notes and ideas 😀

As a side note your husband is so funny and I love the way you act like you did hear a thing. Also, how he show how much he loves you and is still so attracted to you.

[@jeanniecollier6763]

Oh WOW!! Day lilies you crossed can barely wait for the give away!!

I think this is the best video you have made, that I have seen.....your garden is beautiful...I love it !

[@joycekuhlman4450]

Your yard and gardens are simply beautiful. I adore your echinacea. And thanks for the names and information! Happy Labor Day to you and your family

[@mercury_rising]

Love all the amazing colours in your garden! You are so lucky to have so much land to work with.

[@deanlollar8241]

I love the bright colored cone flowers.

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Me too! Nothing better than bright amazing coneflowers in bloom!

[@nancyleeper3113]

I was worried about you and your gardens with Ida…the rain and wind stopped just short of us. You have had so much rain this year and I thought Ida would have recked havoc with your plants, but they still look good. So much dividing to do in my yard, as I’ve already started the process and thankful for these cooler days.

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

The rain has definitely affected things this year… Great for some, devastating for others. The good thing about gardening is that there’s always a new season ahead. I’m starting my fall digging and dividing also, I do love the cooler temps for that! 😉

[@deanlollar8241]

Your garden always looks beautiful to me and I learn so much from you. Thank you so much for sharing ☺️😊

[@twodogdeb]

Your garden is spectacular!

Awesome lay out of your garden.... just beautiful .... Thanks for sharing ..... Hugs

[@katjo0812]

Beautiful! Love the lightening. I built a retaining seating wall and planter on the front side around our patio two years ago. I know how much work that is! I definitely need to add lighting!!

[@pamelamartin1081]

Love the garden tour after Ida . So glad it’s still beautiful., we have had about 50” of rain this year Destin fl. You are a really talented garden lady ☺️thanks for the update 🌸

Your garden still looks beautiful! I had the same problem with aphids on my milk weed😕 I would love some seeds from your beautiful cone flowers the bright colored ones👍❤️

[@Notthelizard]

Still beautiful garden 😍

[@NewMindGarden]

Absolutely amazing ❤️❤️👌👌

[@Sawyertheaxolotolking]

Can you please do a video of how you save and store tubers? Would love to know your method! ☺️

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Will do when I can film that, sure! We need a hard freeze first so it will be a little while but certainly will show you how I divide and store them.

[@jeanniecollier6763]

Your Horizon Sun Redbud is beautiful. I planted mine this year and the top has no leaves because it seemed to suffer from too much sun. It does have a few buds like it will be okay. Fingers crossed

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Oh no! Hopefully it rebounds nicely for you in the spring! Fingers crossed for you!

[@amyserrano2881]

You have a beautiful garden!

[@ceemee7368]

Great tour. Adorable kiddos. I didn’t understand exactly how to get into the seed giveaway. Would love to participate. Thank you. Glad you enjoyed your vacations and family time before back to school. Missed hubby’s input…lol…Glad y’all faired well from Ida. Our families’ thoughts and prays for all those suffering from Ida’s ravages. ❤️🌺❤️

Hi! Thanks for the comment… I will announce the giveaway by the end of this month on my Facebook page… I actually just put some of the info out there yesterday in a post about how to win and other details. My page is: Guiding Green Thumbs: facebook.com/GreenThumbDesigner 🙂

[@Aliyahdoesthings]

Thanks for this amazing tour! I have a pretty small yard that’s on a slope, so trying to learn and apply some of your techniques along my beginner urban gardening journey. Your gardens are beautiful!

[@karenschwartz5209]

Beautiful!

[@saralyleantolik607]

So beautiful! Good job!! 🌺

[@Thehomeandgardenguru]

Your garden looks great, even with some flopping plants! Mine is flopping also, I'm so tempted to remove some blooms and pull out some annuals but they are still blooming. I was thinking of you when IDA hit New York, glad you all are doing well. When would you recommend that I transplant my daylilies, and a tree peonie? It's still in the upper 90s here but dropping down to mid 80s in the next 5 days. You just never know with our weather here. Happy Labor Day, I'll be laboring in my garden. lol 🌷🌿🌸

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

We fared pretty well with Ida. More unwelcome rain for sure but with this season… I’m starting to expect it. Regarding transplanting: I would wait until temps are in the low 70’s at least to move your daylilies and the tree peony I would move 2 months before you’re fall first frost date (if you have one!).

[@donnaswells3939]

Are your strawberry/vanillas real young? If so, they can get stronger the older they get, even with pruning. Love your page! Love your beds, and your excitement.

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

They are! Both are less than. 3 years old. That’s great news! I hope they strengthen up! They are really beautiful!

[@mobrien145]

Bad ziggy, love the hydrangeas our selection in Northern Ireland is limited.

[@marilynmourdock3688]

Do you own any of the woods in the background? I would love to see some of those areas developed for shade gardening.

[@dorothyleeuw8774]

Still looks good. What is the tall pink flower in between the two hydrangeas. Hope to get some seeds from you. I’ll be watching. 😍

[@daisymathew8550]

Your garden is awesome 🥰🥰 Do you have lot of garden snakes since your garden is dense

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Sure do! Everywhere! I know their hangouts though... its the ones in the grass that startle me ;-)

[@bellarosa009]

Your garden is so beautiful!! Where do you garden from?

[@sherimcmahon923]

Hey can you put the names on the flower up on screen so I can right them down later my friend .oh I found the fish fertilizer but it was511is that to strong.

[@michelesimpson2237]

Be aware a Hummer can get caught in that spider web.

[@hollymureiko839]

What is the bright green plant to the right of the birdhouse and Cardinal flower? I think it's directly in front of a tree peony.

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Hi Holly, that is a Hydrangea shrub called 'Omacha Variegata', the foliage actually has dark green specks in it. (The foliage was primary reason I bought it... I had never seen that before.) :-)

[@gillianmuspic2337]

those cascading grasses that you said you need to slice. What are they called please. They are just what I have been looking for. Hopefully they will live in Zone 5/6. Thanks

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Hi- that’s Japanese Hakone grass. I have ‘All Gold’ and ‘Aureola’ varieties 😊

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Very hardy! We get down to -13° in the winter. I’ve not had a problem with winter die back.

What kind of mulch or rocks do you have in your garden?

[@dellohaynes3543]

Be sure to save seeds from your red milkweed it is a tropical (so annual ) milkweed

[@chrispetersen6402]

What was the pink flower in front of the asters near Pinky Winky?

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

That’s a phlox called ‘Glamour Girl’ 😊 One of the best powdery mildew resistant phloxes out there too!

Where in the world are you getting the bleeding heart heliopsis?? I can’t find it

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

Our local nurseries have had it last year and this year. Where are you located?

[@kaystinebrink1220]

How much moving of plants do you do in the fall?

[@GuidingGreenThumbs]

I dig and divide where needed. I also make notes during the season if something has gotten too tall or blocks a view of another plant or a color combinations doesn’t thrill me. I just rearrange as I see the need… 😊
