Good decision on the crystal grass. Nothing better than a great sweep of blooming grasses waving in the wind.

[@kmsch986]

For people wondering why no trees near the leach field- the leach field is basically large perforated PVC pipes lying in gravel laid out horizontally connected to your septic tank in large field. The “grey water” leaks out and is treated by the bacterial breakdown. Because tree roots seek water they will grow towards these little perforations in the pipes and can grow into the pipes busting them causing septic back ups. Best to avoid anything thirsty or with deep roots near the system.

[@Lets_see_how_this_plays_out]

Thank you!

[@eileenchang2173]

As I tend to my garden, my heart❤️ and prayers 🙏go out to all those affected by the devastating and raging 🔥 fires in 🇨🇦and 🇺🇸, and of course throughout the world 🌎 with the ‘natural’ disasters. ❤️🇨🇦

[@debbieswann5721]

A large drift of the grass would be beautiful. Planting as many trees as you can will be smart as it takes longer for them to get growth. Trees will help anchor the property and you will be so glad in the future. You are on your way to establishing something wonderful.

[@krisleonard1428]

Ooh my gosh that grass is beautiful! The cone flowers look perfect with it! It is so pretty now and will be amazing as time goes by! Love it!

[@donnajones2332]

“Jason, you’re thinking” a few minutes later… “Jason you were doing so good.” I’m telling you Janey I’m sitting in the parking lot waiting for my husband to have a post chemo pet scan and I’m sure the ladies directly in front of me in the offices wonder why I’m sitting in my car cracking up laughing !!! Thank you for the happy moment!You two are perfect together!!♥️

[@Starrynite11]

I really love the pink crystal grass. So pretty with the pink cone flower.

[@ashac7183]

Sparse trees are beautiful! They let you see through them to views behind them, create dappled or filtered sunlight, move in the breeze and create a contrasting and airy texture in the garden! It’s all about what you pair them with. 💕🌿

[@wendymckee6627]

Here in the U.K. the best place for coffee and cake is normally the garden centre 😂

[@SandraGrimes-rt9we]

Oh Janey, go back and get more crystal grass and coneflower, carry it around that side of the circle with the fence back drop. If you stand at your front entrance and walk down that pathway, thinking of your future screening on the right near the redbud on the mound. The view of the grass and coneflower will just fill that whole space as your focal point at the end of the walkway. Place a statue at the end or large pot on a stand just in front of the fence.

[@AnEmmeni]

My goodness you have done so much in only your first year in the new property. It all looks so good. Well done x

[@joycerichardson1810]

The transformation is amazing!

[@kaval1er]

LOVE when coneflowers are interspersed with grasses!

[@saywhat2651]

You two, are just a sweet breath of fresh air. Love your channel!🌸🌺🌷🌻💐🌸🌹 🌻💐🌹🌺

[@RamonaGillum-xc8cn]

Janey, I see some small holes in the fence behind the new coneflowers. It would be beautiful to stick a few small, glass marbles in the holes! Wouldn’t the light bouncing off the glass of the marbles behind the grasses, look magical? I enjoy your channel so very much! Thank you!

[@stitcher54]

One can never have too many coneflowers. In our zone 5 they are a staple . When I started gardening, too many years ago to count, all that was available was pink and white. Love all the new varieties and have added 6 new colors, to try them, then will add more. Prayers to all affected by the fires.

[@margretemargrete11]

Wow, that pink Crystal grass and pink cone flower combo is so beautiful. Just continue with it wherever the plants are struggling under the black walnut it is an absolutely beautiful combo.

[@jillshippy5157]

Believe me, guava trees are NOT sparse! They have lovely flowers and delicious fruit. They are considered to be evergreen but just know that they constantly drop leaves. I love our guava tree. The blue green color sets it apart and adds interest in the garden as well. Hummingbirds love this tree!

[@isobelhubble1153]

This is the kind of video I like best, ie when you create new vignette in your garden with plants and shrubs.

[@thefumblingcuisiniere]

Janey, we feel you with the smoke during wildfire season. I live in Montana surrounded by the Rocky Mountains. Just over a week ago I was able to see the flames of our gulch wildfire from my front porch, as well as the hardworking crew that was working 'round the clock to get the wildfire contained. Sadly, one of those hardworking members perished in said wildfire.

[@lizrichman9812]

Love the grass against the cone flowers, great combo.❤

[@kimfoote1327]

Wow…I love all the blooming plantings but this month is stellar! Can’t wait to see the shade trees you select.

[@catherinemoran3325]

Your plan to add trees later this year will bring much added structure to your property. Tree placement is critical for balance and beneficial shade to a garden. You two are so enjoyable to watch. I have no doubt you both have made the right decision in your business adventure. Looking forward to the months and years we will get to enjoy the progress! Thank you.

[@YardeningwithAnne]

Just caught a glimpse of zig zag planter HOLY SMOKES THAT IS AMAZING

[@lizswinney2637]

While visiting Australia I was in love with the Jacaranda trees. They are a huge mass of flowers. So beautiful.

[@AnEmmeni]

Jacaranda season in Sydney is so beautiful. My daughter lives there x

[@josephdanielmarsh]

The first time I ever saw a Jacaranda Tree was in Swaziland, Africa. Full grown. LOADED with flowers, like a blue/purple cloud swaying in the breeze, and wild parrots chirping in its branches.

[@ranchhomeliving]

Glad to hear that you are safe, my prayers go out to those affected by the wild fires. 🙏

[@helenparsons6533]

I started the "Green Twister cone flower" from seed! It's beautiful! I love cone flowers! I love the pink grass! I'm not usually a grass lover but i really like this one!

[@peggy-ann1961]

That July blooming corner is so pretty! I’m very glad your families and Robbie and Brent are safe! 🇨🇦❤️🌸

[@caroleking1834]

Love the combo you picked out today. Those look great together

[@donnasantamaria8317]

Janey, I went to research the strawberry tree you featured and discovered that the Sacramento Tree Foundation advertised this tree for free if you live in Sacramento county! You might want to give them a call! This is what their web sight stated: "Want free trees for your home? Request an appointment today with one of our community foresters to receive free trees and expert advice for your property in Sacramento County."

[@jeanbrewer576]

Good morning Janey and Jason 🐕 Awe plants, shrubs and tree shopping is the best, so relaxing. Can't wait to see where you put your trees, thank you and Jason for sharing. Have a great rest of the day. Be safe.👋🙂

[@kellieskenandore6199]

Thank you so much for giving us a fire location status Janey. I have been very concerned for you, your parents and Robbie. Happy to hear you are all safe. Love your July blooming plant selections. Funny you chose coneflower. I too just decided to add coneflower to my garden. Hope it does well for you!

[@megwyeth2143]

Loved your pre tree shopping trip. Word to the wise…put the jacaranda tree far from the house, driveway or car. Those pretty flowers are sticky and will make a mess of your car and your family will be dragging them into the house on their feet. Did I mention they stain That said they are beautiful! Plant it out front where you can enjoy the show from the patio and be a stunner from the road. Maybe plant outside the fence 😂 the center island would be good. I’m in Chico but came from San Diego and they are all over. Absolutely beautiful. You will love it…just be mindful of where you put it

[@annetteladle5116]

Janie your July corner is my favorite. Beautiful. I love the pink flowers. Great picks and keep taking Jason with you to pick plants and flowers. ❤

[@lindaga820]

That corner with the crystal grasses and the pink coneflowers is sooo pretty ! I love coneflowers and I bought some of the pink ones too !! So glad that you, your parents and Robbie are all safe. Every time I hear of the fires on the news I think of you all !! Will be so exciting when your trees go in !

[@wileatagore5938]

Believe it or not, here in Utah we have so much smoke in the air from CA, Oregon and Wyoming fires.

[@ErinsGardenGeek]

I love every month, but the July planting plants might be my favorite so far! Looks so beautiful especially with black background.

[@lorrainemcwhorter2796]

I love the pink crystal grass with the pink coneflowers❤. It’s so pretty and I am glad you picked up more of the grasses for a prettier show.

[@MissLeslee229]

I was just at that Green Acres! You should see the one in Roseville if you haven’t been there yet!

[@user-qy1fu5qg2p]

Well, good morning, Janey and Jason. You guys made this a fun trip. Pick up some beautiful plants. Open for a glorious Show soon. You and jason make plant shopping fund. Have a great day the oklahoma gardener😊

[@eliev7844]

Love the combination of the pink grasses and coneflowers. Really stunning!

[@ruth8268]

Your July Bloom Garden looks fantastic. Loving on the pink color family. My best to you and your fellow Cali neighbors. The fires are just terrible. 💓

[@francescacanfield5098]

Totally want to plant the same thing……biggest compliment to you…..thanks!

[@sheilagilleland4312]

I need to go to the our garden center and get a few things also.

[@joycerichardson1810]

And then we come home with a dozen plants!

[@terrycourtney8011]

Hi Janey - this is Terry from Boise. I'm so excited you are shopping at the Green Acres in Elk Grove - when I was staying with my daughter in Elk Grove, we shoped at this location. They have the MOST beautiful selection of plants. I can't wait to see what plants you go home with.

[@JoyfulJerseyGardening]

Love this combination you planted today! What a sweet little spot in the garden 🩷

[@ThePieceFullGarden]

Oooo that crystal grass and pink coneflowers are absolutely stunning!! Yes Jason we need more 🤣🤣 oh you will love the eureka lemon and the glacier/icee blue podocarpus! Sounds like you two had a great day! 😊

[@jillbruce3624]

Jason is so ROCKING it! I love the pink crystal grass with the coneflowers. So very pretty.

[@heatherwordup]

I love that grass! And the combination with the pink flowers!

[@lyndastevens9726]

Absolutely love that Crystal Grass - have never seen anything like it!😍

[@shereeralph3802]

Janey and Jason, That pink crystal grass and the cone flowers look AH-mazing together in that spot!!! 🤩 You have inspired me to get something that’s blooming in the ground on a monthly basis (we’ll see how I do - I moved to an Australian equivalent to zone 10b/11, so there are some things that don’t like our humid hot summers. Finding things that bloom is a challenge, as I grew up in zone 9b, and prefer more of the types of plant that grew there, as opposed to just lots of green/variegated leaves!).

[@jennifergreene8891]

Good morning Janey and Jason! Love that combination! Beautiful 😍

[@Carmen-ok]

Hello Janey and Jason. Crystal grass, I have never seen it before and I love it! So glad that you grabbed more, you would have regretted not getting it once you got home. I can’t wait for you guys to get all of the trees at the property, the garden it’s going to look so different with the larger trees to provide the area with more shade and vertical interest 😊

[@lanettekrum1709]

Elk Grove girl here ! Love that store too. Can’t wait to see the trees

[@Sacgirl03]

I'm in Zone 9b and have several japanese maples and they get a lot of sun and have thrived. The one in our backyard gets the hot afternoon heat and it's doing great. I think they are heartier than people give them credit for.

[@tinarollins8]

So glad you went with the pink cone flower. It’s cooler feeling than the orange. I would sticking with cooler colors that bloom in the heat of the summer.

[@abeerali7834]

Jason’s like me, we both need reminder lists 😅 Good job guys. ❤Check for conocarpus trees. Great for a separation wall at neighbors side. Hope that fire dies down soon. Stay safe!

[@Brenda-fp5te]

Love the tree with the blue flowers. For my zone, gotta get one. Thanks for showing. Also love the grass, gorgous.

[@LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica]

Beautiful grass with cone flowers.

[@lisahowell3468]

That looks so pretty! Love the grasses, so magical looking when they move! Good job!

[@maureenb1109]

What a beautiful combination well done dream team 😊❤️🌸🌼

[@janicestandley909]

That grass looks like some grass i easily grew from seed. Savannah grass, people use it for cut flowers too. I love it so much. Doesnt need drip at all.

[@paulabaggett735]

Monty is so precious!

[@linakhoury6623]

Hi Janey 🌺.What a beautiful July flowers, the coneflowers and the pink crystal grass look so pretty with each other . I hope you get the Jacaranda tree we have alot of Jacaranda trees in my area and they are huge and a mazing . Have a wonderful day .🌺🌻🌺

[@xs8372]

Think pineapple guavas are better as bushes in my opinion, very sparse and grow so slow, you need a thundercloud plum or purple leaf plum, the red foliage is so nice and they grow very fast, i planted one in a 5 gallon container and 3 years later it was 20 feet tall, and yes more crape myrtles. Don’t worry about the jacaranda trees, I live in zone 9b in socal and they’re everywhere around here there’s literally hundreds of huge ones. It’s worth the try for you.

[@kfetter9046]

Nothing says "California" like an oak tree. I am surprised you did not consider getting one, especially if you want shade. Love the pink coneflower/crystal grass combo!

[@pattipowell8750]

Beautiful July garden the grass and ss rainbow flower stunning

[@marlaodegard281]

This July blooming garden is my favorite one yet! I plan on copying it!🌸

[@fe2896]

I agree with Jason Multi trunk Crape Myrtles are prettier. Also, Multi trunk Strawberry tree “ Marina “ variety is the most beautiful variety of all Strawberry trees with the most beautiful trunks. Jacarandas, may have problem blooming well in cold areas, that is why they were marked as 10, but they will survive. It’s just the blooms are not as profusely as places like Santa Barbara or San Diego.

[@megwyeth2143]

Your July planting is beautiful

[@janetvorenkamp3655]

nice plant selection. Didn't know a walnut tree was so troublesome. Hope they do well.

[@the_golden_garden]

Try Trees Outlet in South Sac/ Elk Grove off of Gerber road, truly AMAZING selection of healthy trees, larger than you buy at Green Acres and for quite a bit less. Also owned by the sweetest most helpful husband and wife. I plan on going back now that it's cooler for my eastern redbuds ($125!) and at least 12 ft tall. They have every kind of redbud you could want. Got by Himalayan birch trees 12-15 ft tall for $85 each a few months ago and they're doing amazing. Huge selection of Japanese maples that I can't stop thinking about... I digress. Prices, size, and selection they are my go to.

[@juanitagibbs2100]

I love your July garden the grass is so lovely 👍

[@bevjensen2278]

Wow that looks soooo pretty! It's very interesting watching you choose all these different mixtures of plants for each month of the year. I've never seen or heard of crystal grass before and it's gorgeous!

[@MsJacquese99]

The smoke in Oregon is really bad too. A new fire just popped up about 5 miles from my house.

[@genevievecright2899]

This July bed looks so pretty!

[@tlcgarden2300]

The crystal grass is beautiful! I'll have to look for it in my garden center! Such a pretty combo.... ❤M

That’s a lovely combination! Might have to steal your idea!

So glad you family and friends safe from fires ❤ love your taste in garden ideas and picks ❤have a safe day

[@msmaddox2918]

I love coneflowers, Janey! They are drought tolerant once established and self-seed in my garden! I don't mind that they self-seed because I love them so much! Good pick!

[@tahoeblue2491]

Check out the reblooming crape myrtle called Enduring Summer -red. It is a gorgeous one to have to enjoy the flowers longer and a white Pine called Blue Angel. Great texture for the garden.

[@brendao185]

I have a beautiful eureka in my garden…. I named him Harvey ❤

[@cynthiamillentree4886]

I am a grass lover and coneflower also and this is absolutely beautiful! How about that you two getting it done! 💚💗 I will admire yours, because of my zone the grass will not survive in. Coneflowers yes!!!

[@rachaelslivka7973]

That area w/the grass and cone flowers looks SOOO GOOD!! I bought some "orphan" cone flowers from Lowes (aka dead-ish) and revived them. Can't wait to see them (and yours) in their glory!!

[@mistygeller3193]

Ooooo, what fun plants you found!! You have such a fun garden, I love it! And it’s coming along so well!! I’m addicted to coneflower and daisies in my zone 5a garden. There are just so many different colors and heights available that I can’t pick just one, and the blooms last so long 😊❤️ I do the same thing that you do, and try to pick up a few things every month or two so something is always blooming 😁

[@nickbono8]

What about planting native oaks? The valley oak is big and fast growing, or the interior or coastal live oak for the evergreen leaves! Both will be very good shade trees. Also, native oaks require no extra water, and they’re beneficial to wildlife!

[@nickbono8]

@@lrogers707 only “problem” with the buckeye is its summer deciduous. So they tend to look dead in the heat of summer. They are really good looking with leaves and flowers in the winter though!

[@Curls_915]

I have a mature pineapple guava and it is definitely not sparse. I love it! And the color of the leaves is a nice standout from other plants :)

[@joeyoosthuysen3518]

Janey, I absolutely love the crystal grass and cornflower seletion you guys bought. It looks great in the garden.❤❤

[@Gardenmimi1950]

I live the grass and cone flowers. Beautiful combo

It looks so good against the black fence!!

Jacaranda trees are soo beautiful. We have them everywhere in Adelaide in South Australia and the blooms are so pretty.

[@pamd1861]

Janey, the coneflowers are indispensable! Constant blooming now when others are taking a break. You'll love the Rainbow it's beautiful. varies in shades of pinks and corals it's my favorite! Looks great with the grasses.

That’s spot looks soooo pretty!I want that grass!

[@virginiaramirez4214]

I love it when you go into Green Acres. I don’t have one where I live in San Jose. But when we go into El Dorado I make a point to go. 🤗
