[@bevelyncain7681]

There’s nothing like a mother’s love and help.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Amen to that❣️

[@dianem7771]

I love that you get to garden with your mama.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Me too ♥️

[@christycoalson36]

Coffee with Jenny n Mimi ☕☕ I now see where you get your love of gardening and your stance. Good morning all ☀️

[@anneandrews7053]

What an awesome video! Transplanting, dividing, planting, irrigating, mulching and best of all, time well spent with a loved on! 💚💚💚💚❤️🏆

[@debbierice2618]

Your Mom is a jewel❤️. She reminds me of m sweet Mama.

[@barbs.7367]

Here’s to a couple of hardworking women! Turned out great. The chartreuse sum and substance just pop! 💚

[@MrsJackie1956]

I love watching your videos and that’s great that you and your mom work in the garden together. I wish my mama was here to work in the garden with me. Cherish these moments. ❤️

[@imahappygal1]

Won’t it be wonderful next spring when you can sit and smile at your beautiful work and enjoy. I do know work is never completely finished but some will be.🥵😁

[@logansimpson305]

Great video from your favorite nephew I hope you and Jerry have a fun and safe time in Ohio

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you! We’re having a great time!

Good morning Jenny 🌄 🌼🥰☕🦋🌻🌻🏵🌼🏵💐☕🌡🌻🦋🌅

[@KatherineTheGr8t]

I had a paragraph of 'Wow' perfect planting area that I needed ideas for. But what I really want to say is you have some really nice 'gams' !!! and Jenny take care to not get too much sun right above the knee. I had some really great ones too, but the crepey skin above the knee makes it look like 'old lady skin.' And don't think or say in your southern charming way 'oh I bet your legs and skin look fantastic.' Yes they do if I were 80 yo, but I'm 50 and spent years without taking care of my skin (all in Oregon), especially skin that felt like leather from time after working in the sun. Girl, not dissing you in any way nor pushing any product, just do what I didn't do...save your skin that gets a lot of sun, even if sun screen feels icky or wear longer shorts (when not on camera : ) and you will look your youthful self for much longer. Maybe that's why Mimi wears long pants (skinny legs and too much sun damage same as mine) Love your's & Jerry's interaction together, Thanks for letting me share even though you may not ever see this comment, maybe some other younger beautiful legged gals will : D

[@davidhatfield5714]

Looks good now but just wait till next year! Jenny that’s as hot a red face you have allowed us to see😂I know how happy you are with all these beauties , enjoy 🌻👏

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You know me - I show you the good, the bad, and the ugly 😂. Just being authentic!

[@jeane561]

Jenny this area turned out wonderful. You are a worker just like your Mama. Now you can enjoy this area after all your hard work❤️❤️❤️

[@lisaoswalt5233]

So love your ENTHUSIASM & love for all things gardening!! You keep me inspired!! Thank you! 🥰❤️

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You’re very kind ♥️

[@withwyatt_2181]

Good morning Everyone!

[@DixieGirl9876]

I also fill the hole with water first when I'm planting in the summer or planting anything large. That's my mantra this year as well, just keep them alive. lol I've added so many new plants this summer, more than I normally do in the hot months so, it's water, water, water. It's all going to fill in and be glorious, well done!

[@Edu_Kate]

I'm nervous to see my next water bill. $$$

[@DixieGirl9876]

@@Edu_Kate I know!

[@kimberly8185]

My water bill tripled this month.

[@KellyNoGarden]

I enjoyed your video😀 Great tip about adding water in the hole before planting. Thank You for Sharing!

[@juliedorey5254]

I like to see the mulch so I always leave pockets empty. Plus I might want to add something later 😉 Everything looks beautiful Jenny 😍

[@annobrien223]

Hi Jenny you and your mam are a force to be reconed with great job love all the planting best regards from the South East Coast of Ireland 🇮🇪😀😊❤💙

[@elmaelmar2761]

Wow what a lot of work but it is looking amazing!! Congratulations on your anniversary!! May you be blessed with many more years together!! 💕💕

[@jenniferhooks2454]

You have great gardening partners in Jerry and your mama! Your new plantings and patio look absolutely amazing! I know you and Jerry must look at what you have accomplished in this set of projects and be pleased to see how your hard work looks. It will be wonderful to see the big reveal. Terrific job!!🌼

[@susanduthie208]

The bed looks BEAUTIFUL!!! 🙌❤🌻

[@DonnaSchmidt-xp7cv]

Oh my goodness! I am so sorry! You're faith in God will see you through! I'm at a loss of words!! I love, love love watching on tube every morning! Love and prayers!!

[@mariay.279]

Absolutely gardening is fun.

[@dianawilson5030]

Pro tip. When doing drip always have a lighter nearby. A couple seconds under flame makes drip more pliable and goes right on and cools tight. I like the long fireplace lighters.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

FANTASTIC tip!!! Thank you❣️

[@hulahoop58]

Christine the editor here: I sincerely apologize for the audio inconsistencies here. In an effort to remove the hum of a background air conditioner, I over and under corrected sweet Jenny’s voice 😓 Please direct your annoyances at me and not Jenny.

[@rhondaduncan7602]

Pobody's Nerfect! 🤣🤣🤣 You do a great job, Christine, and we love you for your hard work. ♥️🌸🌿

Elevated living space at it’s finest! Can’t wait to watch it grow with you💚

[@marysetliff2441]

Y'all have done a beautiful job !! Lots of hard work, but, that effort is going to be gorgeous when everything matures. Love it !!!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks so much!

[@wandabarlow4432]

Just brought tears to my eyes because I miss my Mama and I used to plant with her. Priceless memories. Coming to see you, my daughter lives in Huntersville.

[@pam4670]

I got my love of gardening from my mom too!!

[@potatopotatoeOG]

I envision I'd be doing this with my mom too if she were around. I think i got it from her. I was told she loved to grow plants too

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Beautiful garden🌿kuddos to you and your Mom Some stepping stones through the garden would be nice too!

[@mgvlynn6229]

Hmmmm…I think I must be more like Aaron and Jenny is like Laura with the squiggly drip lines. That could drive me crazy.

[@marilynbaldwin2934]

What a awesome video and the plants looked perfect in that spot! Your mama is a exceptional person and a hard worker! I remember the video of her gardens outstanding! And your gardens will be the same!

[@fabricandflowers83]

Looking amazing!!!

[@JDubKillinKicks]

That bed is massive. That's awesome.

[@lynnelovett8999]

Ms Christine you don't beat yourself up. You are great. Ms Jenny the garden looks beautiful. Have a blessed day.

[@8Gammie]

So fun to see your working with your lovely mother. Great video! love,hugs,prayers.

[@maureentaylor4771]

I love your show but I have yet to find what zone you are in. I am in 9a, Houston, Texas.

[@ivybendgarden6406]

I grew up in South Georgia and know horse flies are a pain!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

That nasty thing was making me mad!!!

[@fraukeg.facchini2691]

You and your mom are really working very well together! It will look even better when it fills in just a little!

[@annadavis6361]

Ok so the garden looks amazing, so fun to watch! Jennie, white and baby blue are your colors girl. You look amazing! 🤜🏽🔥

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Awww, thanks friend!

[@georgebowman3716]

Living in central Georgia has its challenges. One solution will be a rain garden to catch roof runoff. Let the water perculate and put in a solar powered water well near by to make it a permanent pond using the earth as a storage buffer, then irrigate near by plants as well. 36,000 gallons of water per year from a modest home roof runoff is a lot to use for this. I just thought you might like this idea yourself to consider.

[@cantor7723]

That tree is just perfect for that area. It allows you to have shade and sun plants in the same bed. Of course under the tree is shade, but sun around the edges. Glorious garden!

[@tcondrey]

Good morning!!! 💜🧡💜

Good morning friend!

Beautiful looking flowerbed

[@amyhoff1501]

The Blue on the Hydrangeas is an awesome color

[@susantsiouris3067]

This looks gorgeous. Love the variety of plants, especially the purple shield.

[@maewoodbury7824]

Great to see teamwork, your mom is a go getter, so much energy, that is great.

[@Artben92]

Love the videos there always so informative and amazing. The beds beyond the patio space look great. Would you ever consider giving a full garden tours of all your flower bed/ planted spaces. Amazing videos as always keep up the great work Jenny and jerry.

[@Artben92]

It is very lovely seeing you and your mom working together. She’s very strong and helpful. Great work you too. Looks great

[@marciasemon669]

Warm water helps that tubing to go on a little easier:) 🥰

[@Edu_Kate]

I've also seen (from Aaron at Garden Answer) to unroll the tubing from the coil to minimize those pop-up links rather than pull on the end when laying irrigation tubing.

[@djackson2243]

The amount of work and dedication (thanks Mom) will totally pay off. Love the patio and the setting around it. You guys did a great job.

[@stephaniesisk2215]

This whole area looks amazing! Please include a before and after when you give us the final tour.

[@uglyvulture5172]

Jenny, you too a flower growing on your hubby's support medium.

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Jenny and Mimi, I loved watching how fabulously you work together! You make a great mother-daughter planting tag team! That area underneath the Forest Pansy redbud tree is huge. Persian Shield plants are beautiful and will add so much to that bed once they fill out a bit. Are they perennial in your zone? I have to grow them as annuals, here and there in my planters. I hope those few plants that are struggling decide to live and start putting on new growth soon. Your patio area is looking gorgeous, and mulch adds the perfect finishing touch to your garden beds. Jenny and Jerry, I hope you enjoy your much-deserved getaway. ~Margie

[@marykuhn7510]

Ilove what you and your moma did with this garden.MK

[@patriciasimon9684]

Looks so much better.

Jenny, you are so funny and down earth I love it. That flower bed is gorgeous

[@ashleybardales1291]

Lots of work Jenny, but everything looks gorgeous. Always enjoy your videos.

[@MK-wm6gu]

You and your mama did a fabulous job on the new bed. It was fun watching it come together.

[@barbaradunleavy3755]

Look at that there all up in my peonies LOL 😂

[@josweatt898]

Congratulations Jenny and Jerry! May you have many more years together. That is a huge bed and I love what you planted.

[@barbaraharrold5361]

Your garden is going to be so pretty when everything grows and blooms :-) we are planting four camellias in our backyard :-) When we lived in the bay area I had a whole wall of them in my front yard and they were so pretty between the red, white, and pink blossoms they was gorgeous:) I’m hoping to get the same show in our new backyard:) tfs God Bless:)

[@carolmilburn489]

Looks amazing

[@pamelawillis6036]

Some large rock and/or statuary/birdbath...would be pretty in that beautiful bed

[@gracehSF]

I’m happy to see that I’m not the only one that struggles with connecting drip tubes. I sometimes soak the ends in hot water to soften them, which makes the process easier.

[@itshomelife]

It all looks so great and it was fantastic that you were able to spend time with your Mom while working on the space!

[@waywardwind3815]

Great southern gal…hands in the dirt and beautiful while doing so... Thanks for the instruction. N GA mountains, here. I have to contend with clay/sandy soil but with added rocks and rock plus roots. Heat/humidity not so bad if one lived in mid ga in chattahoochie valley. Thought your auger would help my 67 yr hands but sweetie said no. Too many rocks. I just love the south and all the things we can grow here. TY.

[@lindaortolano7837]

Hi Jenny!! The patio and garden landscaping looks beautiful!!! You guys did a fantastic job with the design!!! I loved watching you garden with Mama. You crack me up explaining about the horse fly!!! Oh I have been there and it is not fun!!! (LOL) I can't wait for the roses to grow over the arbor....that will look so pretty!! Have a great day Jenny and I will see you in the next one! Hugs! :)

[@karenhart4316]

Wow Jenny ; your garden will grow in to be a Stunning display 🙌🧤👒🦘🐨🇦🇺🐝🧚🪴🌸thank you for sharing your garden journey love from Australia 🇦🇺 💞😍

[@eileenchang2173]

Jenny what a beautiful garden! As you emphasized your primary objective for this year for these plants , all I could hear through my head was the Bee Gees song, “Stayin’ Alive” 🤣. 🌸❤️🇨🇦

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

I love it 😂😂😂😂

[@michellepollino4986]

OMG! I love , love it, how beautiful.

[@meirosetiger]

Love love the process and detailed explanation!

[@Edu_Kate]

I love these long videos showing your creative thought process. That 'Little Quickfire' has me thinking I need to make more space for my 'Quickfire' if that's the footprint the little one makes. I've just been waiting for the delphiniums to finish their bloom cycle so I can rearrange them and plant my hydrangea. Ugh! Japanese beetles. They decimated my dwarf apple tree, but that's distracting them from my newly planted roses. I'm headed out for more mulch. Guess I'll add Rose Rx to the list. Or whatever organic spray I can apply to roses. I agree, plant with the future in mind. Pockets are where annuals go. I hope you'll update us on your Ohio trip.

[@sharonrickards3297]

Looks fabulous!

Your Garden videos are ALWAYS so amazing and beautiful and inspiring☺️, but I truly LOVE the “Up Beat” Music sooooo much better than this slow, boring music…..please forgive me for complaining but the upbeat music goes so much better with all the speed of planting!!!! God Bless you all always
