Oh Steph, the garden is just looking AMAZING!! It’s incredible what a transformation there has been since winter! Thanks for sharing!

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you SO much Janey!! Things are really coming alive. Each morning i'm excited to walk around the garden checking things out 💚

[@briandaniels4]

Agreed! Everything has come alive in your garden. I also love the stone walls. Great job!

[@karenadams5400]

I love this garden. It’s just my style.

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you Karen!!

[@thegardensanctuary2248]

You said you don't have luck with roses, I put my used coffee grounds around the plants in early spring and they all seem to bloom and do well.

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you so much for the tip. English roses always struggle in my garden. Black spot, yellow leaves, and the canes always stay so thin. My knockout roses do well, with no help from me other than a late winter/early spring prune and sprinkle of rose tone.

[@ivettesantana4319]

You are so blessed to have such a nice property and the finances to garden at this level!

[@HookedandRooted]

Slow and Steady Ivette. Its taken years as budget hasn't allowed to do too much at once. We've been landscaping here for the last 10 years and we started with a blank slate. Thank you so much. We are blessed.

[@melonieroe7310]

Beautiful. You have so much land to garden. I am envious.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Melonie, Isn't it funny how we always want the opposite? I love the amount of land, but to be honest at times its a little overwhelming knowing where to start. Also, its alot of work. I would be ok with half the land. Thanks so much for your kind words.

[@kimmie1957]

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Hi Steph! Your lupin is truly gorgeous! It is so pretty 😍 I love the vibrant color and it ties in very nicely with the nepeta too. Your garden is really looking beautiful 😊😊😊

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Cara! (hope I spelled your name right?) Thank you SO much! The lupine was such an unexpected surprise. I have tried for at least 5 years to grow them with no success. Last year I winter sowed some, threw them in the soil with no amendments, and boom, they showed and and took me back with their beauty. I'm so happy to have them. I do have to move them this fall since they are much too big for the front of the border (good problem to have!) but i'm worried about how they'll transplant. I'll be sure to collect some seeds to start news ones just in case. Thanks for watching!

[@bluebirdhomestead]

@@HookedandRooted Hi! Yes you did spell it right! Most people go with a K not a C so you are spot on! Sometimes the garden is funny like that isn’t it! When we try the hardest sometimes things don’t work out and sometimes all it takes is a little “neglect” for things to thrive. It’s awesome when you can just throw something in and walk away and it thrives 😊😊

[@sporeomega300]

Can you do a garden tour of your evergreens in the front of your house with names? I love the different colors, shapes and textures in your front yard landscaping!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Rena I sure can! It's actually on my content schedule in about 2 weeks 🌲💚

[@sporeomega300]

@@HookedandRooted wonderful!! Can you let us know the approximate depth of your beds also? I’m currently designing mine and I can’t tell if mine will be deep enough to accommodate the mature size as some of my favorites that I’ve seen in your beds.

[@deborahoverton7733]

Love the spirea.

[@KP-gw5zv]

Thank you for taking us on the garden tour. As always the gardens look gorgeous and as we all know garden work is never done. However I know that you will have one of the gardens looking great. Anyways thank you once again and have a great day.

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you so much!!! That is right!! The work is certainly never done out in the garden. Some self imposed, some just maintenace. I finished cleaning up that bed that was in need of attention just a couple days ago. Video tommorow evening.

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

Absolutely stunning Steph 💕 I have been adding more evergreen and I’m loving all the different varieties available 🌸💕🌸

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Jasmine!! Thank you so much!! Yay to adding more evergreens!! After 9 years of working in my garden, I'm so appreciative of all of the everygreens I've added over the years. When we're in the thick of a cold and dreary winter, it helps so much to still have some beautiful things to look at in the garden.

[@angiem8434]

Lol .using table for shade..that is a great idea! When Im worried about transplant shock I will do it at night when the temps are cool .my spouse thinks I'm crazy working in the garden at 8pm but it has worked for me

[@sherryryan4305]

Excellent!! Your curb appeal us soooo gorgeous!! The Spring blooming perennials, bushes and the flowering scrubs are all beautiful, they support one another so well Have a blessed season and Memorial holiday!!

First time viewer/subscriber, such a beautiful oasis & worthy every bit of my time Even tho a garden may be beautiful, if you overtalk it's a turn off for me. This was just perfect & naming the plants was also a plus

[@livistar7214]

Beautiful!

Lupine is definitely something I want to add to my garden this year… the flowers are striking but I also love the shape of the foliage. Your yard looks great. Thanks for sharing!

Steph, you have beautiful landscape and hardscapes as well. I loved the tour! Very interested as we are zone 6a Kansas.

Your garden is beautiful! Such a great start to the season. I can see you put a lot of work and love into growing! I also have a backyard garden it’s the start of my 3 year now but there is still so much to learn and I appreciate your tips, tricks and visual presentation. I looks forward to learning more from each other as we grow!

[@melissae.9842]

Those lupines! ❤️ ❤️❤️ The colors of your irises are a knockout especially the peach and purple ones. Do you know the name of that one? Thanks

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi! Thank you!! The one your asking about could be either concertina, coral cove, or stage lights. I hope to get tags soon to be able it identify them properly. But looking at my list they could be one of these since I have all 3 in my garden notes.

[@michelelara5982]

I love all your iris plants, do you have a favorite place to order them from?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Michele! My iris I love ordering from Schreiners Iris. As for flowers I start some from seed. And most of my perrenials come from home depot or lowes. I occasionally buy something from a local nursery. I don't order many plants by mail because I prefer to see the plant in person.

[@yesidtac7863]

Hermoso video.

[@thequarrygardener5578]

Hello from Northumberland in the UK. I’ve just found your channel and subscribed because I’ve started a new KZbin channel too and the plants I grow are very similar to your selections. Your garden is very beautiful and so pristine. I garden in a very different climate though, mild but very wet so it is interesting to see how the same plants grow in these very different conditions. Very much looking forward to watching your garden grow and develop 😊

[@HookedandRooted]

Welcome aboard! I'll have to check out your channel. I'm always curious how UK's weather compares to us regarding to zones etc. Thank you so much for your kind words, and for subscribing.

[@serenababy6358]

Loved this tour and can't wait for Spring. How deep is the flower bed (front of the house where the Hinoki tree is)?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Serena, thank you. I'm not real sure but my best guess is approximately 8-10 feet.

[@mrlang30]

How about some delphiniums in place of the variegated iris in the center of the Carl Forester Grasses by the shed? They'll give bloom height before the grasses get too tall and the grasses will hide the foliage after they're done blooming.

[@paolaarletty6525]

What a gorgeous garden, I could watch it all day 😍 Thank you for sharing! I specially love all the purple nepeta at the front of the house and also the overgrown blue spruce you are planing to have removed. I wonder if you could put it up for sale or donate it, instead of cutting it down? Would be such a waste 😫 id specially pay good money for a mature tree as beautiful as that one. There are companies that can dig it up successfully for a fee and possibly transplant it, too. Thanks again for such a treat, showing us around your peaceful garden.

[@lisakeith7313]

Steph, it's BEAUTIFUL!!! Do you know how many allium are planted in each grouping/cluster? And how many allium are in your front walkway bed? My mom said iris are disappointing, don't last long & aren't worth planting, but they are GORGEOUS in your garden. How long do they keep their blooms? I know you mentioned reblooming iris. Do their blooms last longer? Thank you for sharing!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Lisa! I have 3 clumps in a group of allium planted. I bought 1 and divided it in 3 and they doubled in size in just 2 growing seasons. As for the Iris, reblooming Iris come back a second time and bloom about 6 weeks after the first bloom. If you go with Iris, this one might be a type to look for. They really are a beautiful perrenial to fill the gap between when the daffodils and tulips bloom, to when the summer perrenials pick up.

We got a bunch of stuff last yr from him and are going back this year for slate & more border rocks. If you want his info, let me know. We filled our SUV for $45 bucks!

Can you get a tree. expert to move your tree? Do a go fund me. I would contribute because that tree is so beautiful! 😊💖🌲

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Beatrice! It hurts my heart to think of the day I'll have to remove that tree. It is just so beautiful. It's a shame that tags aren't always accurate. It sure would help make planning a permanent spot for the tree easier. For now, George has been pruning the back carefully as to not take away the roundness of the tree, but to give some space from it crashing into the house. Birds also love to nest in it 💚
