Love,enjoy your running ducks. Thanks from the east coast of the US.

Thank you so much ☺️

I have to get my hands on some of those massive alliums. Slowly building up my English Garden. I am going to take your advice and leave the leaves on the beds. I might mulch them up first.

I have been your subscriber for a few months now. Seeing your wonderful garden and the hard work you put into it gives me a lot of relaxation and inspiration. Please be proud of yourself💚💚💚💚

Whatever’s coming down the pipeline, I hope it involves narration of some kind, I consider you the David Attenborough of gardening :P

[@bethraptis6504]

I am such a BIG, BIG fan of yours...all the way over here in SC, southeastern USA. I have a country place with cottage gardens, too, but your property is my definition of heaven on earth! I could just listen to your beautiful, soothing voice all day long. Thanks for every video. You greatly inspire us all whose "therapy" is yard work, better known as playing in the garden! Lol Keep up the good work! I'll always be ready to watch!

[@monalogue]

Thank you, this is such a kind comment and made me smile ❤️

I have just finished planting all my bulbs for the Spring and am also hoping that they don't all get eaten as they did last year. Being a gardener requires extreme optimism! Best wishes from Wales

[@monalogue]

You are so right! Fingers crossed your bulbs are safe this time ☺️

[@dogontheplot]

Squirrels got all my saffron crocuses too I think, but tempted to try again undercover.

[@monalogue]

Best of luck if you try again 🤞🏻 they are lovely plants

[@paulacothren3591]

I do love the UK gardeners! With love, from the southeastern US state North Carolina.

[@morganharris9977]

Fellow North Carolinian here and feel the same 🙏 gardens just aren’t as grand as they are here than in Europe

[@dianestephenson8528]

One of my favorite garden videos. Thank you❤

[@gardentours]

Your garden is so beautiful and it will look more beautiful with all those flowers 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷blooming in spring 🌝👍

[@monalogue]

Thank you so much ☺️ something to look forward to 🌷

[@CharmingTrinketss]

I love your garden so muchh it inspires me a lot 💕✨️

[@loredepalo6863]

Always lovely to view your videos. Will you consider a home update video?

[@lisag.6599]

Good luck with your newly snug house this winter! A good idea. I was interested to hear that you can plant tulips deeper to keep predators from digging them up - I will have to try them again, after giving up on them. :) Love your sweater (jumper)!

[@monalogue]

Thank you so much ❤️☺️

[@maurih6914]

Maybe you could try and plant one half of the tulips near your house and the other half up in the garden? If the badgers destroy only one half you still can enjoy the other ones :) Love your videos! I was very pleased to see that the new video was online today. Perfect treat after a hard day at work :)

[@Claire-qk7jf]

Yaaay new video !! And you said you did not want to plant any bulb this year ❤😂 I see you could not resist. I have planted a few dozen myself 🌱 dafodils and tulips (botanical and these white/lilac ones 🌷🪻)

[@monalogue]

Haha love that 😂 that sounds really lovely, enjoy your bulbs ☺️

[@HazelDuskeagle]

Your garden looks beautiful! I wish I could have one as beautiful as yours, but I have a very small garden. It must be so hard taking care of it all. And welcome Wednesday to the runner duck flock!

[@simeonbennettphotography]

Excellent video 👍big fan of your channel ❤

[@monalogue]

Thank you ☺️

[@poppinda5717]

Beautiful!

[@monalogue]

Thank you popps ❤️

[@meghanmckenna2129]

I put an old window screen on top of my bulbs, and then layer mulch on top so I can't see the screen. When it gets to the time of the year when my tulips start to grow, I remove the screen and it seems to work for keeping away the squirrels

[@monalogue]

That’s a good strategy!

[@Heiksns]

😊❤

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

I’ve only just found your videos so this has been a lovely place to start! On a side note - is that a hand knitted jumper and if so could you share the pattern?

[@monalogue]

Thank you so much and welcome! ☺️ I believe it is hand knitted but I bought it from the charity shop so I’m afraid I don’t know what the pattern is.

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

@@monalogue ah well it's lovely! Nice to be here!

I thought it was just me who has a greatly diminished bulb show. Of the bulbs I plant I think I have a 60% show the first year and maybe 20% the year after. Could be less than that considering how many bulbs I have planted and yet I only see just a little evidence of them being eaten by rodents or deer. (Front of house garden, outskirts city of Oxford, UK)

[@monalogue]

Oh interesting! Is the soil damp enough that they may have rotted in the ground? It is mysterious isn’t it

[@amalkapovidlova3331]

Please, please, please 😀 - what is the right depth to plant the tulips?? This is the first time I hear such information, that it could help avoid dividing them. That is my biggest problem - every year I have thousands of daughters instead of one BIG strong mother bulb. I would be very thankfull if you could solve this issue for me 😅 Thank you!

[@monalogue]

I think about 20cm is the right depth with that in mind ☺️

[@amalkapovidlova3331]

Thank you very much! And is it your personal experience or is it some new secret bulb planters recomendation? 😀

[@christinepickard7804]

❤🍂✨️👋😀☕️

[@nataliak164]

16:01 How deep are you going to plant your tulips? 🌷

[@amalkapovidlova3331]

Yes, that is the right question! I am really very curious about it.

[@monalogue]

Aiming for 20cm deep but not being too concise 👍🏻

[@nataliak164]

@@monalogue Thank you! 🩵

[@anniewildmush1284]

home grown saffran is sooo much better... mine got eaten as well by a squirrels
