Thank you for answering the question about the discount plants, the reason I asked about the discounts about plants is because I follow you for a few years now and I see how generous you are and you even share plants from your garden, I wish you the best and I will keep watching you because you are very relatable and your interactions feels real and it is appreciated 😊

13:48 Thank you so much Yuliya for giving me wonderful ideas and even designing the mixed border hedge! You gave me exactly what I needed. Before I was just thinking of straight rows of plants. The suggestion of opening is also great. Loved your design and will try to replicate it. Much appreciate your help and creativity and the design is beautiful!

[@ydoyougarden]

You are welcome!! 🤗

I have a Mona plectranthus! I bought it as an unmarked plant with no flowers. I fell in love with the leaves and bought it for that reason alone. The flowers were a bonus! I've had mine about 4 years as well and move it into my flower house to overwinter in zone 6. This past fall I've started more rooting stems in water.

[@ydoyougarden]

They're such a lovely plant!

[@carlas872]

Would love love love to have you design my backyard in a video, as you mentioned at the beginning of this video ❤. Your design process video series has been so helpful already but I need a master plan to work from over the coming years.

[@lesfleursdeflorine]

Thank you for this video. This is full of information. I learned a lot of things 🥰

[@kathrynmettelka7216]

Love the info on planting and the explanations. They all make sense though I had never considered them.

[@ydoyougarden]

Glad it was helpful!

[@eddye7764]

This is such a great video! Even though I’m in the Central Valley in California, zone 9 where we are hot and dry, I always learn something new from you. I’m trying to go more native, but it’s challenging when most of the native plants go dormant in summer. Also, I just placed an order with Great Garden Plants! I've never ordered plants online and found them searching the web. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they arrive.

[@ydoyougarden]

That’s awesome! I am sure you follow @digplantwaterrepeat. Janey has great insights for your zone 😁

[@eddye7764]

Yes! I just discovered her from another garden channel! 😄

Wow, I’ve never heard of Fall Dig Hazard, and just bought from Home Depot and planted a River Birch from a 3-gallon pot that I could tell had been there for quite a while. Does the Fall Dig Hazard apply to only digging up and transplanting, or also to planting from trees in pots?

[@ydoyougarden]

Only digging and transplanting, if they are already in pots you can plant 😊

[@swbates3]

@@ydoyougarden thank you Yuliya! This was a super helpful video 🙏

[@willaerley7140]

Yes! I’d love to hear your design ideas for my garden! I think my plants are getting tired of being moved. 😅

[@QueenAnnesLace13]

First time hearing of Fall Dig Hazard. Please let us know how we can submit a garden challenge that you might consider answering or designing. I have a raised concrete planting area perhaps 7x14 in front of my house which I would love to redesign, I currently have a cottage style planting with a hodgepodge of plants, I would very much like to streamline the plantings to make it more minimalist with repetition and all season interest. This was so helpful, watching you is always a teaching moment. Thank you

[@jhazperphresh9844]

I also garden whole year round because I live in Los Angeles. I'm slowly removing my summer annuals to replace with my winter annuals; primrose, cyclamens, and poppies.

[@ydoyougarden]

That sounds amazing!!!

[@raymondridiman8326]

Job well done

[@daiseegray9110]

Thanks! 🌼🐝

[@victoriajacobs5833]

I love your encouraging, informative videos! Sadly, I missed the notification to ask questions! If there's still a chance, do you or any of your viewers have a gardening tool belt you really love? For decades, I've been wandering around with trowels, shears, hori knife, plant ties, etc. stuffed in my waistband. Ridiculous, but I keep doing it because when I search for tool belts they all have such mixed reviews. Any recommendations?

[@ydoyougarden]

I don’t have a tool belt myself and on the hunt. Will let you know if I find something 😁

[@AnnaT.54]

Thank you so much for all of your videos. You are blessed with a wonderful talent which I am not. And in addition to that lack I am confronted with a horrible soil in my garden. So my idea is to put the plants in containers with good soil. But what to do with perennials in winter time? Do I have to protect them? I live in zone 8. This would be my question for the next Q & A session.

[@ydoyougarden]

Great question. Make sure the perennials are related two zones lower, so zone 6 and you can overwinter in pots 😁

Thank you for the garden lesson appreciate it!👍🏼🙌 what happened to your American pillar arborvitae ? I like to see how much they have grown since?

[@ydoyougarden]

They are doing great! Doubled in size.

[@John_NY10566]

excellent

[@wshoward1092]

I am in zone 6 along the Ohio river in Cincinnati and have several Colocasia's in containers. Last winter I stored them in boxes. I am working on a basement plant room and would like to keep them growing this winter. What type of lighting do you suggest for inside growth? I am starting a bit early due to the residual effects of hurricane Helene. We have experienced a summer drought and suddenly. heavy storms brought 5-6 inches of rain over a weekend.

[@amymoore-mckee9928]

What a wonderful mixed border design! Is there any way you could post a pdf as I’m getting a message that says “unsupported file type”?
