You are so delightful in every way and just as 'real'. I'm 76 this year and if I could trade my (wonderful) life for anyone, it would be you Catherine! Bravo for living your life as authentically as you have and continuing to plow onward just for the joy of it. The garden is looking fabulous!

I could not stop laughing at your crime story imagination with the bag in your garden. I love your garden.

You are a breath of fresh air. So happy for you that digging in the soil, planting, and being outside gives you such pleasure. Almost teared up when you spoke of the "borrowed landscape". Thank you for bringing smiles each week through your videos. See you next week. ❤

[@lisanester3338]

Everything looks beautiful. That broom of yours. I was laughing so hard. It mulches, it cleans the sidewalk and yes, it even can sweep the grass! 🤣 The greenhouse looks especially inviting. Hope Mom is well. Stay safe 🙏🏻💜🌸

Greetings from east coast Canada. This rainy Saturday morning there is no going out weeding dandelion today. I came across your channel, after one video I had to subscribe. You are a breath of fresh air in your way of expressing yourself, love what you're doing in your yard. Thank you for taking the time to share your love of nature.

Hello my lovely Dainty Garden Fairy. You are truly a bright light of SUNSHINE ☀️. You have no idea how much I appreciate you. My daddy passed on the 21st and tho our relationship wasn’t as close as when I was younger, losing a parent hurts💔. Thank you for putt a smile on my face and the little escape all your videos always provide. Lots of LOVE as always 💖🏡🌹🌼🌷🌻🌸🌺💐

I've got the cutest little blackbird family in my garden...their fledging was out today and my heart absolutely melted! You can't beat the joy of nature 🥰🥰

[@lizziebeggimbo]

This is a great video Dainty. Don't plant Fallopia Auberetti, honestly this is a hybrid of Japanese knotweed and no joke if it gets near your house or your neighbours it can devalue your home by thousands! It can get through brick and concrete the lot! Don't do it. Do ivy or wisteria or something instead. Much love

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks for the info! I just looked it up, and seen how troublesome and invasive it is in Ireland.

[@lizziebeggimbo]

@@DaintyDiaries yep do not plant that bugger anywhere near your lovely house 🥰

Always so upbeat and fun, and an air of peaceful. Yes, its nice when overlooking trees add so much. I am loving the tulips and daffodils.

Thanks so much Cliff 😊 The spring bulbs are adding much needed colour to the garden x

I understand your gratitude for established trees. We moved into a new neighborhood development 2 1/2 years ago. There are no established trees. I miss the ones in our old neighborhood. I planted crepe myrtles when we moved in, and they are growing well. Good luck with your garden. I really enjoy all your gardening videos.

Catherine, you are so cute and so much fun! I am so very glad you didn’t find a dead body in your garden! Your whole backyard is looking so good! Great job with the choice of plants and trees. I cannot wait to see the whole thing transpire into a wonderful dreamland of a garden. Love the greenhouse too. I wish I had your energy. You do not waste a minute!

[@emilysmith2784]

I appreciate you saying you are grateful for trees planted by others in the past. We lived in our house for over 10 years and we planted a cherry tree and an apple tree in the front garden. We sold in 2018 and looking on Google earth the new owners have ripped out the trees and gravelled the whole front garden. Makes me sad that they killed the trees 😢. Wish I’d taken them with me but the move probably would have killed them too.

Hi, Catherine. You should start noting down your garden wisdoms, like "trees teach me patience", they always stay with me, these garden wisdoms of yours!

[@jenniferortiz1168]

My dad had 2 Japanese maple trees and we used to play the game of "how much do you think it is now" as they would grow. They were the most beautiful Lacey-like trees. I wish I had before and after pics of them.

[@DerrynEHahn-ir2jv]

Glad you’ve become a ‘tree hugger’. Your camellias will take about 5 years to get as tall as you and you may end up moving one as they bush out quite a bit. I’m sitting in bed looking at my borrowed landscape too, 6 pines and 4 birch, starting to lose their leaves ready for their winter sleep. Your garden is looking beautiful❤️✨

[@lindasanderson9835]

Catherine, I love, love, love your videos. You always inspire me. Please be careful with the Fallopia. It's common name is 'the mile-a-minute- plant' and it's very, very invasive. People use it to quickly cover up eyesores. Good luck!

[@patdelaney191]

Be very wary of those climbing vines. The common name is Russian Vine or Mile a minute. They truly are very vigorous and would easily cover that tree you have at the back. ❤️

[@kristineprice2722]

Catherine, great video, loving your garden missy💕 I’ve just left my gorgeous garden in France 3/4 acre of land that was nothing 11 yrs ago, but I filled it with everything and anything, but I made a jasmine area around the outdoor kitchen, oh the climbing jasmine was beautiful it smelt divine when I’m flower, also a jasmine clematis which I can’t find at the moment 😡 it covered a load of trellis with 1000s of sweet smelling white flowers glorious, Best tip ever was grow in a big tub … borage plant let it flower then cut back, put into a bucket cover with water and let it rot, it stinks!! But when the smell has gone bottle it! It’s amazing stuff for fertilising do the same with nettles, so borage for starting feed then nettle for fertiliser… oh dilute 10water to 4 stinky ok and it costs nothing so natural too 💖xx
