October Garden Tour 2020 // Northlawn Flower Farm

[@GardeningatDouentza]

What a beautiful garden. I love it and have just subbed.

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Thank you so much Rachel. I love your channel and your style. You're a wealth of knowledge and joy to watch!

[@gardengirl7446]

The fall garden could be the most beautiful of all the seasons. It's like the finale at a fireworks show!

[@Maria-pk1kx]

Thank you for being so detailed with the plant names. The Mexican Sage is beautiful and I will definitely be adding it to my garden. This past weekend I bought two Rose of Sharon bushes (White Chiffon and Sugar Tip)and hope that I can plant them before we get our first frost🙂 I think the sage will look beautiful in front of one of the bushes. BTW I love hearing about your grandmother’s plants and her connection to your garden.

[@CoolKidsInMaine]

I really love the way the Coleus looks backed by the Burning Bush!! They play off each other really well, it looks like an intentional and smart decision to me!!

[@josephburns8787]

I’ve really enjoyed watching your garden tours this season. Keep up the good work.

[@debbieriedel9185]

Great tour your garden looks beautiful 🦋

[@dianacarlyle800]

I enjoy your videos😀looking forward to planting a cut flower garden

[@emptynestgardens9057]

Just recently found you and so glad I did!! Just saved this so I can continue to refer back to as I begin to build new borders. So many great ideas. Your voice is also so calming 😊. Cheers from 5b Ontario Canada.

[@dirtroadandbeyond]

Even though I can't grow most of the plants in your garden--I'm in zone 8b, I enjoy your channel so much I never miss a video! Keep up the great work.

[@dianeasberry7928]

I have so enjoyed your garden having just found you a few months ago. You are a joy to watch. Your arrangements are lovely. Hopefully I can learn from you.

[@stampinghippo7157]

Danielle, thanks again for this tour through your wonderful garden! (And, yes, I´ve missed a September tour, thought it was a busy time for your stand.) If it is not too late (and the frost hit your garden), you should take coleus cuttings, put them in a glas with water until they root and you will get some amazing houseplants for the winter, then, come spring, you get more cuttings from your coleus for your garden. And you should definetively overwinter your gorgeous lantanas, they get bigger and bolder every year (they need a bit of light and little water) .With Nasturtiums I had the same problems last year(wrong colour),and in my zone they are invasive, I had a lot of fun on my knees this spring! And please, take in consideration a November/Winter garden tour with or without snow! Take good care of yourself and stay safe. Love from Germany ,Hanni.

[@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial]

Thanks you so much garden friend! I have never overwintered lantana - do you put yours in a greenhouse - or into the home? Thank you.

[@stampinghippo7157]

@@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial Into the home, frostfree, behind the gardendoor because they need light, every now and than a bit water, and have an eye on pests. They will loose their leafes. Mid May they come out on the deck, get a little haircut and a fertilizer, then you can watch them grow. Greenhouse would be pitch perfect, but I unfortunately do not own one. Good luck! Stay safe.

[@katiefolwell1573]

Thank you for making these videos! They bring me so much joy and I love looking at a beautiful garden, especially on a rainy cold weekend!

[@MinnieAcresFarm]

I loved this tour. It makes me excited for my vision of packing in all kinds of flowers into a future cottage garden 😀

[@dianem7771]

Still looks beautiful.

[@caroleprete2367]

Thank you for your channel. You have a beautiful garden and a soft, effective way of sharing your expertise. I would never have dreamed you could start annuals in winter!! I ordered the book, Cool Flowers. I can’t wait to try it. I also love your tours of public and private gardens.

[@jeannet9592]

Thank you for the tour! I loved seeing how you've planted your cool flowers.

[@AndreaAubertin]

Hey Danielle...I grow the Clustered Bellflower (I didn't start it, it was already in my garden when I moved in). But mine are grown on the North side of my house in a garden that is only about 1 foot wide. It is also located right beside my hose reel so it does get lots of water. I think the clustered Bellflower might like tight spaces-I think it spreads threw runners so I think the tight space helps it. I am able to keep it in check because its between my house and the lawn that I cut. Hope this helps😄

[@debbyfletcher2941]

After watching one of your spring videos I ordered Tithonia. WOW, we’ve fallen in love with it in our garden. It’s gorgeous. Thank you. Every-time I watch a video I’m writing down names of future plants and bushes. Thank you for inspiring our garden🌻🌻

[@aquinavarghese717]

Iam from Kerala.I very much love your garden.it’s lovely,gives a lot of happiness.you are very lucky .

[@cherylpietrok5962]

I really enjoy your garden tours. I’ve learned so much from you which helps me in my new garden. If you would kindly do a video during the winter just to see the snow. Thank you so very much!🌳🌳👒

[@Michellemybelle1996]

Thank you for taking us on a walk through your fall garden Danielle! These are my favorite videos. I live in the country (zone 5 MI) but am slowing creating nice deep borders like you have around our main yard/house and you have motivated me to add in some shrubs and flower for cutting (rather than all in my raised beds). I only do this for fun but maybe one day I will try a farm stand for flowers. Wondering if you think 6-8 feet is a good depth to layer in plants and still be able to manage and get around them all for cutting, weeding, limiting disease, etc.? Keep up the great work- I'm so enjoying you!

[@ginadavis174]

Thank you for sharing your autumn borders! I have just found you today, and send greetings from the UK!

[@joycedagostino8869]

Thanks again. It shows how well you planned and gave thought to your gardens and landscapes are so that even into the fall, you are seeing pockets of color and interest. Thanks also for the update on the cool flowers, I am going to test sow some this year too.

[@AndreaAubertin]

Oh and u wanted to say thankyou for your videos! I think I have learned the most from you about cut flowers than any other youtubers out there! 😉

Thank you so much for sharing your garden. I learn so much because I grow in 6b zone also your garden help me see how and where to plant my plants

[@therapowell4674]

I just love your garden tours! I've been following you for a couple of months now and I gain so much knowledge from your content. Thank you for taking the time to put this info out there. I, too, have a small-ish space that I'm growing cut flowers and I love how you grow them in your landscape. It's stunning! Also, I grew the peach melba nasturtiums this year and mine were definitely peach colored, so that variety should be correct for a true peach color. Maybe an accidental wrong seed go placed in the wrong packaging.

[@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial]

Thank you so much for sharing that with me Stoplight Farm! May I ask who you got the peach melba seed from this yr? Mine were from Renee.

[@therapowell4674]

@@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial I got my seeds from Sow True Seed. I'm not sure if you've heard of them, but they're a small seed company in Asheville, NC (where I live). They have a website and I know they ship all over. I don't get all of my seeds from them, but it's a great company and I've never had any problems with seeds I've purchased from them.

[@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial]

@@therapowell4674 Thank you so much. I'll check them out. I had seen Kiana Underwood use light peach nasturtiums in an arrangement and I fell in love with them immediately.

I appreciate the really slow tour. There are a lot of plants though, that I don't know what they look like, & its hard to tell which one you're talking about sometimes... but overall, loved the video! Lots of Inspiration! I'm starting a cut-flower garden next year, & I plan to sow some things in my landscape, not putting everything in the designated cut flower garden!

[@GardeningOnTaylorMountain]

Loved the tour! Awesome that you propagate shrubs! My friend just offered for me to take some of her Nandina to propagate and I shied away from it, may need to rethink that! 💚👩🏼‍🌾

[@janiebryant8068]

What a speedy reply! Thank you for answering each question. I am familiar with the seed companies you recommended. As to sowing seed this fall I will have to give it a try next year. Although could I plant larkspur now?? I failed to mention this in my last message to you. Have a good everning Danielle and thank you again!

[@ShaneHickey]

Thank you for the great tour!

[@daiseegray9110]

I really enjoy your garden tours. I garden for my personal enjoyment but love all your tips and tutorials. Maybe you could share the name of the book you mention in another video. Would love to take a screenshot.

[@darlenemacdonald206]

I love your videos & I love to see how you integrate your flowers in your landscape rather than rows. Thank you as that’s what I want in my yard as Im starting to grow cut flowers for personal use & to give to family & friends rather than to sell. I want to add more peonies to my landscape & I plan to expand some of my current beds to incorporate cut flowers (annuals & perennials). Do you have ideas on what to complement my new peonies on the south side of my house where there are dwarf Korean lilacs that I will leave in the back of the border. All my beds have shrubs, weeping trees, perennials & some annuals. Again, Thank you for your ideas!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks.

[@gardeningbyheart4912]

Have you considered growing Proud Berry Coral Berry? If you have it, I missed it. I think you would love it. The foliage is rounded and gray green. In the fall it produces a pink berry all over the bush. I love mine and though I don't use it for cuttings (I have a hard time cutting my flowers because I love to see them in my garden), I believe they would be lovely in arrangements. My favorite dahlia this year was Clair Obscur. I love rose campion for architectural interest. I'm not sure if it would do well in floral arrangements but something to look into. It's a biannual I believe.

[@melissaleslie5456]

OMG, you’re moving the cypress again? You just moved her last week! Ha, ha. I totally get you!

[@cherigreen4471]

The garden still looks really good! I have things in containers on my front porch and window boxes that I need to purge, but they still are so pretty. I'm in NE Ohio 6a and really like to everything done by now. I put several hundred tulip bulbs in the ground this past week and I next need to do daffs. I have two large containers with tulips and daffs. My first time in containers. I don't know whether to winter over in the garage or on my front porch. Any suggestions from anyone on garage or porch. Thanks!

[@janiebryant8068]

Hi Danielle, I am relatively new to your channel and I must say I greatly have enjoyed what you share along with your cheerful manner and lovely voice. I garden in zone 5b and i have some questions. Do you happen to know what hardy annuals I can sow here in my zone now? Also, the Mexica bush sage which you showed in this session, is that direct seeded? And lastly, will you share some seed companies which you find to be reputable and of course you have great germination with the seeds they offer. Thank you!! I hope you share some things as the fall progresses and in the winter too. Thank you again!

[@BoPeepsBonnetsOfficial]

Hi Janie! Feverfew, foxglove, snapdragons, canterbury bells, sweet william, bupleurum, black eyed susan, and dropmore are hardy to zone 5. The only one of those I would direct sow outside is bupleurum and feverfew. The rest I would do as transplants. Unfortunately, it is most likely too late for transplants now for the fall in 5b. Have you had a frost yet? If you have 6 weeks left before your first frost you could give feverfew and bupleurum a go direct seeded. Otherwise I would wait until late winter/very early spring. I propagate the Mexican Bush sage by cuttings - it takes easily. Johnny's and Geo are my personal favorite for large quantities of seeds. I also buy alot from Rohrer's - mainly because they have a retail store I like to visit. I hope that is helpful!

[@gardeningjunkie2267]

I just got Cool Flowers yesterday! I've been cold sowing already but am very excited to read the book. You should be very proud, you have a gorgeous garden. I'm just wondering why you didn't name the cleome, which is one of my favorites. Yours is laying over though, is that because of the weather?

[@bernadettelanzillo951]

Blue shadow fothergilla? Vs button bush? Which I absolutely love!

Oh yes! I am so sorry I misspoke! I meant to say bottlebrush. Yes Blue Shadow Fothergilla!

Very nice. I am in northern NJ. I have a lantana in a container. Will it come back next year? How do I protect it? Will you dig up you peonies? Thanks

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi Angela! Lantana needs to be brought inside in your zone. Here is a helpful article -www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/lantana/overwintering-lantana-plants.htm You could also take lantana cuttings are propagate them if you prefer. Peonies do not need to be dug up. They are perennial. I hope that is helpful!

This will be my first year planting from seed except for the test seeds I did this summer. Thank you

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi Susan! Here in 6b I don't cover anything I showed you in the raised beds. I know Lisa (the author of Cool Flowers) does row cover some things. But I've never bothered - especially with the things that are very hardy in my zone.
