May Garden Tour

Come on a late spring tour of my wildlife garden and see how I`m trying to make it great for wildlife and for people .

[@LindasFlowersandVegetablesGard]

Another wonderful garden tour!

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thank you!

[@9FatraBbits]

Oh my goodness! What a change - so lush. The roses look so healthy! Flowers everywhere! I have only a small grass area in the forest garden and I’m leaving it to grow. Thanks for the marvellous May tour.🐇

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

The weather is ideal for growing at the moment. It`s warm and sunny but the ground is still wet from the winter and we have had some more rain. Everything is just loving it. Makes up for the months of miserable weather we`ve jus been through. I`m glad you enjoyed the tour. Thanks for watching.

Greetings from Ireland, Beautiful natural looking garden, Its the bees knees.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Hello in Ireland. Thanks very much and thanks for watching.

[@shirley-annrigby-jones8731]

Such gorgeous honeysuckle and a great May tour. So pleased some of your trees look okay now.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it, and yes, great relief about the trees.

[@cerridwencottagediary9194]

It's looking lovely Isabel, well done! My honeysuckle is nowhere near flowering yet so you are ahead of us here in North Wales.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thanks< I`m glad you like it. You`ve got your honeysuckle to look forward too!!

[@sheilafarren5359]

Love your videos

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thank you and thanks for watching.

[@marilyneves8856]

After finding your channel and seeing your beautiful garden you have inspired me to plant more native plants. I only have a small gravel garden but I'm planting in pots and through the gravel. It has already attracted so many more bees and insects into my garden.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

That`s great to hear. I think a lot of natives will grow well in gravel and in pots. I`m so pleased your garden is attracting more insects. It just shows what a difference we could make if we all did this. Thanks for sharing x

[@hobbithause6754]

You gave me inspiration to work on my blank slate of a backyard. It is planted like your and now in waiting to seeit really take off in the next year or so. Thank you for the videos and the calm voice.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

You`re very welcome. It`s great to hear that you are wilding your yard and getting ready to welcome in the wildlife. I hope you will be surprised by what you can achieve. Thanks for watching.

[@lm9753]

The more I watch and listen, the more I want to say. Isabel....thank you for all you're doing. Just keep swimming!

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

You`re very welcome. June is the month for roses, so they should be flowering for the next tour. Thanks for watching

[@wildlifegardener-tracey6206]

Looking lovely. As the native plants grow it'll be interesting to see what insects you attract to munch on them.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thanks Tracy. Fingers crossed the insects will find them.

[@patdelaney191]

Some so called experts talk rubbish. Just leaving a corner if that's all you can manage, can make a huge difference. I love your garden 🐞🐝🐛🦋🕷️🌹

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

They do!! Thanks so much.

[@flowerfairy1950]

I agree and me too! 🦔🐞🌻

[@helenyoung8012]

How about mowing a path to the summerhouse and chair and perhaps around the edge to frame the meadow. That way you get a mixture of habitats. Thank you for your videos, like them very much.😊

[@lm9753]

That's a great idea, Helen! She's a National Treasure! Greetings from NorCal USA!

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Yes, I was thinking I could just mow some of it. I`m glad you like the videos. Thanks for watching.

[@christina3056]

I think you are doing a fantastic job!

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thank you so much!. Thanks for watching.

[@myrustygarden]

Garden is looking beautiful Isabel ❤. Have you tried google view to see if it can identify flowers I use it a lot it’s mostly 🤭🤭 correct. I love grannies bonnet or we call them columbine. Such an amazing variety of plants. Glad you have some wonderful sunshine. Have a super weekend, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Hi Ali, yes we call them columbine as well. I do use google and I have an app on my phone. And I have an old fashioned book with a key. I`m enjoying the sunshine. Hope you are too.

[@lm9753]

"Wild Welch Garden,"! Heck....Isabel, it's a jungle. Can't wait to see the climbing roses next month. xxoo

[@EDuncan-oq9bw]

Thank you

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

You`re welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@flowerfairy1950]

Hi Isabel, yes Joel Ashton is now saying nomowsummer due to destruction of species that come in May. I suppose a mown path thru to your summerhouse and leave the rest. We have just received our first frost warning here in south east Victoria.🇦🇺

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Yes, I was thinking of leaving some and cutting some of the lawn. You`re heading into winter now!!

[@BryanBeechey]

Hello Isabel, sorry for being so long in responding to your videos, it has not been a good time recently just hoping for a positive outcome when i go to Aberdeen next week. Your garden is looking amazing, you are doing a wonderful job of wilding your garden. I am sure the wildlife will be thanking you for it. Thanks for sharing with us. Take care and stay safe. Bryan fae Orkney.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Hello Bryan, I have been concerned, not hearing from you for so long. I can only guess what is happening but I hope for a positive outcome too and that you will be back caring for your garden and wildlife. Thanks for watching and getting in touch, Isabel

[@gramermanushsupport4298]

awesome super

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Thank you so much

[@mariniedermeyer7235]

Hi I’m new to the channel and I have the geranium you mention (7:08) in my garden. Does anyone know what it is called? I really wonder! Thank you for sharing your garden with us! You have a lovely space. We have left some areas in our garden wild and we have some hedgehogs move in as well. We also have black redstarts nesting, as well as lizards and snakes! And a whole colony of wild bees. It is really so much fun to have a garden full of life! And so much more interesting than „tidy“ gardens! Happy gardening from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Hi and welcome to my channel. Thanks for joining me. You`re garden sounds amazing. I think you have more wildlife in Switzerland than we have in Wales. Restarts are very rare. Lizards and snakes - not so much but you hardly ever see them. I`m so glad you think that wild gardens are so much more interesting. Thanks for watching.

29:26 😆

[@pattymcmullen8551]

Thanks for the tour! Do you have snakes there,?, ticks, chiggers? Oh, I would be afraid to not mow my yard....

[@lm9753]

Me, too. Way to many rattle snakes. Where are you? I'm in the Sierra Nevada, NorCal USA.

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Gosh, I can`t imagine being afraid of any wildlife. There is only one poisonous snake in the UK, the Adder, and it is very rare. I`ve only ever seen one once, about 50 years ago! We have grass snakes, but I have never seen one. I would love to have them in my garden. We do have ticks but they are not a problem. I had a cat that picked up a tick once, but I`ve never had one. The UK really is very nature depleted!! I`m glad you liked the tour.

[@lm9753]

@@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr Im in the mountains and my front yard is a game trail. Bears, mountain lions, bob cats....it's really fun! The wild turkey's are hysterical!

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

That sounds amazing! All species like bears and wildcats have been extinct in the UK for hundreds of years. There`s talk of reintroducing wolves and lynxes but it`s only talk. Some people are trying to reintroduce beavers and wild boar, to help with rewilding but there is a lot of opposition.

[@pattymcmullen8551]

Oh my,here in the Ozarks,farneres are battling wild hogs,so destructive. I am glad to welcome critters here...but when your chickens are all killed by raccoons,steps must be taken.

[@SMElder-iy6fl]

Isabel, what is going on across the road?

[@mywildwelshgarden-es3fr]

Do you mean about the planning permission? I`m not sure. Nothing at the moment. The council website says still pending.

[@samajier2566]
