Planting in Gravel

[@carolaaron5424]

As Mr. Rogers used to say "I like you just the way you are." LOL, don't worry about smiling into the camera. What you're teaching us is what's important. ️ ❤️

[@wjs5773]

I feel like I’m now part of a secret society, where the members have the guilty pleasure of laughing at your jokes and happily just watching you dig holes or throw weeds away . What a joy.

[@thedivide3688]

I watch EVERY Episode. So make more videos LOL

[@doreenlatimer6379]

Love watching a ‘real’ gardener with a sense of humour. Quite the planting project needing a pick axe!!

[@themainer1267]

I agree. Love his sense of humor. "I forget the name of this one here. What's it called?" Hehehe. And he definitely is the real deal.

[@janclark1894]

Hey Mr Lord and David you're spoiling us, so nice watching you while having a nice cuppa, a few laughs and learning from the expert 😀. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@stephennutkin2477]

I was going to attempt growing a spaghetti tree just to pasta time away 😉

[@karrencraw8778]

Love love love watching and learning from you.

[@kieran_higgins]

Watching this video was so relaxing. Especially the gravel raking! Thanks John.

[@wildberrygarden]

I thought the same! I could watch someone rake gravel all day 😆

[@sunshinegirl4101]

I hope I will be able to visit Ireland one day and just stroll through your secret garden and say hello to you John…….

[@reellifelived4858]

I’m watching for sure..and grinning over your philosophical bits. Hello from Birmingham Alabama USA

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

Brilliant gardener. Thanks for the inspiration John!

[@christopherhills1609]

Totally enjoyable….the jokes are right up my street! Garden looks fantastic John

[@carmenbailey1560]

Well done, your grass ended up looking like it’s been there naturally. I have to say I like the looks of the gravel surrounding it. Those were some pretty dark clouds up above you. Thanks for sharing all your hard work and knowledge. 👍❤️😊

[@markwilliams8538]

Great to see yet another kiwi being added to your wonderful garden. How in gods name did watching a man dig a hole become so entertaining.

[@susanboon4605]

Been watching long enough to say "Hey - I remember when you planted that garden!". Love that. Planted some asclepias from seed last year, and had it flower this year. A real sense of accomplishment.

[@lindat5321]

Love these & John too.

[@kt9495]

I just removed 75% of the sod in my backyard and brought in 4 tons of 3/8” gravel. I’m in love with it and slightly obsessed with ornamental grasses. I laughed to myself when I realized I removed grass to plant grass 😅 Thx for the entertaining video 🌿✌🏼

[@teresejohnson6767]

“Gravel doesn’t grow on trees”. Another wise John truism! Delightful to hear the children in the background enjoying your Secret Garden. Ty

[@melodymulhall7860]

Thanks for the lesson on gravel planting. Yes your honor… you are hilarious. Keep ‘em com8ng John we can’t get enough!

[@shielamartinez8991]

Another brilliant video John you make gardening so much fun thank you Sheila Chester

[@patdunne3277]

Thanks John another great video!!

[@danmatiesanu6823]

I'm watching John Lord dig a hole for the last 20 minutes. No complaints here :)

[@michellesleaford4748]

Love your sense of humour John

[@MrBrznak]

Throwing everything into the bushes, sharp felco and the general attitude , you are a real gardener, always fun to watch

[@joanlyoung1]

That was Grand! Bless your heart dear John. You are such a tonic with laughs on top. I have learned so much from watching and taking your advice. So many plants in my garden are a testament to that fact. Thank you.

[@sheilaquinn2087]

Enjoyed your video, John, used to live in Trim near you in Ratoath, now in Madrid where gardening is not for cissies!!

[@derekwalker539]

Your the real deal John, great no nonsense gardener and so funny. I can often hear the guy who's filming you snigger! He does a great job filming you and keeping up with you!!

[@truthofthematter9409]

You've gotta love John! "No your honor, as far as I know it's always been there." 🤣

[@olsonlr]

Would love to see a tour. Just tell me what I am looking at please. Thanks

[@wendychandler8304]

I've just been trimming Lavender, which would have been fine in that rich soil and gravel; a real pleasure vy seats too. 'lue Ice' a favourite, grows all the way on old wood and dense. Good to see you John!

[@GotMoreCakes]

Really rather nice gravel that.

[@ashleymccarthy6232]

Just found your channel. Absolute gold. You're an amazing presenter, thanks for the great content!

[@karenl5378]

I love your energy! 🌿

[@planetearth4312]

Keep up the good work John, I’ve planted some of your recommendations this year, love my Persicaria amplexicaulis , and my Joe pye weed.

[@VickiesGardenEvolution]

I love your videos 😊

[@andrewdunne1735]

When digging a hole in summer use water to loosen the soil,makes the job so much easier!

[@llengsuch3426]

Great stuff again! You should sell bags of The Best Soil in Ireland in the shop. Just plant your spaghetti, add a handful of the Best Soil, water well for the first fortnight, and bingo! You'll have your own Irish pasta tree - guaranteed!

[@amyjones2490]

No offense meant but I’d rather see the garden. John makes it look so easy. Experience really matters.

[@kevingallagher4673]

You should be on RTE ,,, learning gardening with a bit of craic the best way to learn....

[@josvanamelsfoort2686]

Hi John I like in my garden the Abelia grandiflora very much. Do you have this also and what do you think of this plant? Kind regards Jos

[@merryhaveman353]

Us home gardeners hate big pots for the same reason. I hesitate to buy a plant in anything bigger than a one gallon pot.

[@jennifertucker107]

How do you keeps weeds out of the gravel?

[@mariawilson2595]

John did you not put weed barrier under ?? if not why havent you got weeds !!! thank you x

[@shannon454]

Too funny

[@lavendercottageflowerfarm3281]

But you aren't actually planting in gravel, but soil.

[@mauracurran3270]

How to keep it from seeding alloverJohn

[@dianestrode2730]

It's called a Toi Toi in New Zealand. Also, the New Zealanders don't care if you look at the camera or not!

[@MrBPDude]

13:52 Is that a gardining glove? 🤣

[@txnygotw]

How do you keep your gravel weed-free?

[@Cavalier7dar]

Can anyone recommend a good hand garden fork mines always bending thanks

[@downburst1]

Oh I want to go to heaven but I’m always digging holes.

[@katyas7651]

I’m very jealous of that gorgeous dark soil. We’ve added similar gravel on top of our heavy clay to remedy the mud after rainfall. 👍🏼🤍

[@SleepyKittens]

Is gardening a crime in Ireland where police officers interrogates you about kiwi grasses in the middle of the gravel? John Lord's guide to planting so seamlessly it becomes a criminal act. 👮🍀🌾🥝
