October tour of my U.K. Tropical style garden.

[@W1964-m9n]

I can see why you want to take out the yellow wave, looking forward to seeing the changes! Thanks for showing

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. Mixed comments on the Yellow wave but I think it’s definitely time for something new. Cheers.

[@dianewhitworth4953]

It's great to see the garden at the end of the season. It's definitely the time when you decide what hasn't worked and what you want to change. I also took a lot of the plants in a few weeks ago to try and get them dried out a bit before the cold weather comes . Thanks for sharing, and I'm looking forward to how you change it. Oh, and I love a rambling video lol

[@tikitropicals65]

Thanks Diane. Normally I hate this time of year but this time I’m looking at it as a revamp. I’ve seen some great gardens this year and my head is full of ideas. Hopefully the winter doesn’t kill my spirit. Cheers.

[@sharonparsons3222]

Another great tour of your amazing garden. Love your plans and can’t wait to see the pond taking shape. I agree the yellow wave is in the wrong place!

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. I’m hoping the pond idea doesn’t get bigger than first planned. My head keeps coming up with some major changes. I need to rein it in a bit I think. Cheers.

[@estherterrier6400]

Looking beautiful as always,lots more plants on my list 😊

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. Hopefully the plant list isn’t too expensive 😂 Cheers.

[@richf_tropical_garden_projects]

looking very lush still, lots of lovely plants now on my hit list for next year haha

[@tikitropicals65]

Cheers. Yeah I have a few I’m hoping to add for next year. It keeps it interesting.

[@marianne9798]

Love your garden! Looks fab

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you.

[@wesleyhackney]

It’s been a great year seeing your garden mature and adding bits here & there. Will miss seeing it for a few months but 2025 sounds like a lot will be going on. I can’t remember if you have ever shown your greenhouse especially in winter to see how you pack everything in. Would make for a good video to get to see it

[@tikitropicals65]

Cheers. All being well Im hoping to replant lots of areas next year and the planning starts now. I have shown my greenhouse in a previous video but I will think about doing another one with my new plants. Many thanks.

[@carolebaines4075]

Love your garden, it's very lush. I know what you mean about some plants not being nice enough to take centre stage. Any of us that grow these type of plants will always be moving things around, taking things out etc. There are so many stunning new plants on the horizon that we want to try. It's the beauty of gardening, it's never really finished!

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. Yeah I have lots of plants waiting to go in next year. I’m really looking forward for next season. Cheers.

[@lindahughes1699]

Sorry I like the yellow wave there, hanging over the lawn with the paths either side. I think a few more plants around the lawn over hanging the would soften the lawn edge. I love your garden though so beautiful 😊

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. I’ve debated moving the yellow wave for years now but I think I’m definitely going to move it now. Not sure if I will find a better spot or just pot it up for future plans. Cheers.

[@JannekeKuijer]

Ramble on, i really like your yellow wave, it looks very tropical. Maybe put a nice purple plant next to it🤷‍♀️

[@tikitropicals65]

Cheers. I think the yellow wave will be moved but I really think that area will be improved for the better. I have lots of other plants looking for spaces to be planted in so hopefully it’s a change for the better. Many thanks.

[@GO-PIES-r6k]

Another inspirational video. I love it 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. I’m glad you liked it. Much appreciated.

[@idaniamorales6058]

Amazing job

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you.

[@ЗокирРахимов-о3ж]

Незнаю как вас зват ??? Но вам везёть очень чувак ... вликолепний садь слов нема !!!❤

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. I’m glad you liked it.

[@regalportraits3921]

Always loved your yellow wave in that location. Sad to see it go😢

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi. I liked the yellow wave there when it was smaller I just now feel I can get a better effect with other plants there. Time will tell. Cheers.

[@Palmguy24]

I love your view from the grass. Of course, being a palm person myself, I love your windmills the best. So are you expecting a frost or freeze soon?

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi and thank you. We have a couple of days that are close to freezing but then it warms up again hopefully for a few more weeks. Only my most tender plants have come in. Cheers.

[@paulineellison9047]

lovely garden what size pots have u put the canna in

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. The pots are roughly about 40. cm deep x 50cm wide. Cheers.

[@finnkel]

My Manihot is smaller than yours but it's in the ground and it will remain there, with a bottle over and some fleece during the cold spells. Pray for me! 😜

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi. To be fair Manihot is pretty hardy. It’s just when they are smaller the may have more problems. Hopefully it’s a mild one. Cheers

[@EastCoastTropicalGarden]

Great video, I have picked up a Begonia luxurians today, do you have any tips for these? I plan to keep it inside for the winter this year as its only small, thanks

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi. I keep mine in my frost free greenhouse and they do fine. In general if you need to keep it inside try to avoid areas with low humidity. they don’t really like central heating or dry air but otherwise frost free for me they are quite easy to get through winter. If the airs a bit dry you can mist them frequently. Cheers.

[@EastCoastTropicalGarden]

@@tikitropicals65 thanks very much

[@leighge1211]

How do you secure the fleece in the top of your tree ferns for winter to stop it from blowing away

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi. Honestly I just screw the fleece into a ball and push it in the crown and it stays there. If I have to add extra protection I can wrap it around the top of the trunk and then I use stretchy bungee cords with hooks on for speed to hold that on. Cheers.

[@ellerby83]

Hi mate nice tour, i see you have a Rhus tree. Iv just got one but iv seen some horror stories about them spreading. Do you find it's been a problem for you?

[@tikitropicals65]

Hi. Yep they spread. Most years I have to pull out lots of roots with new shoots on to stop them popping up all over the place. Lovely tree but can definitely be a problem. Cheers.

[@ellerby83]

@@tikitropicals65 Thought as much, thanks for the info. I'll think very carefully about where I plant it in that case

[@ЗокирРахимов-о3ж]

Мiне очень понрвелься папротники 20:17 они шикарние ❤ ....

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you. The tree ferns have been planted over 10 years now and they are very happy there.
