[@wynncarter6783]

Love what you've done with the Jasmin, I wouldn't have thought of doing that to give you more space for the summer pots. Can't wait to see what you buy to fill them. Thanks guys, happy plant shopping! 🪴🌲🪴xx

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Awww thank you so much Wynn 🤠 your support is very much appreciated 💚 Hopefully I’ll get the plants this week 🤞 so I’ll be potting them up soon 🪴 Have yourself a lovely week 🌱 Chip

[@GipsyBoy-vg6fz]

Great trimming chip, chocolate chip looks good. Think I need to water them more 🤣☺️🌳🌳🌳🍀🍀🍀🌾🌾🌾🐈‍⬛

[@BertiesGardener]

Clever idea to lift the skirt of the Star Jasmine, she can look a bit frumpy and lumpy, but now has supermodel legs. And space for more lovely plants. Can't wait ...😊. Definitely keep going with the ferns, and the ajuga is a lovely addition. Mine is a larger leaved variety, but it tends to get a bit ragged looking after the flower spikes go over...simple to snap the spikes off and they look much better. It easily spreads so could you lift some bits to underplant the Acer you popped onto your neighbours side? As usual, watching your clip is a lovely start to my day. Thankyou❤

[@milkweeddreams8828]

You had me at chocolate chips...but they seriously look awesome with the ferns...and those boxwood balls, perfect...and perfect timing with the jasmine, mine are sorely in need of trimming, thanks for reminding me, tomorrow for sure...cheers boys...!

[@GipsyBoy-vg6fz]

[@jlanvers]

I have this ajuga, it spreads very very slowly here in Utah. I like the kinds with larger leaves, they seem to do better.

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Hi Jlanvers 🤠 it’s my first time with these so ill let you know how they get on 🤞 Have a wonderful week 🌱 Chip

[@1940sDream]

Oh that's master trimming of the boxwoods. I would accidentally whack it all up. Good job! At 9:59 in the top round on the left side, is that horsetail? The bottle brush plant? I love it for cleaning my pots, but I tried to grow it once and it died. Not damp enough or too much hot sun here. Anyway, thanks for video.

[@maddart4445]

I just got done transplanting chocolate chip.

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Hi and how wonderful 🤠 I hope it all went well and you get a wonderful display of blue blooms 🤞 all the very best 🌱 Chip

[@ms.lizzypoulos9276]

Hi Chip! How do you keep your water bowls free from mosquitos?

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Hi Lizzy 🤠 thank you for your message, we don’t really have a problem with Mosquitoes in Yorkshire 🤞 we do have a small number of them apparently but I’ve never seen them or had any issues with them, the rain tops the water up normally but if we get a long dry spell I top them up and refresh them with a hose 👍🏼 Hope that’s helpful, all the best and have yourself a wonderful day 🌱 Chip

[@ms.lizzypoulos9276]

@@ChipsGreenWorld Good for you! They are such a nuisance! Everything is looking great!

[@booneozzie1]

I prefer small space gardening like yours, easier to be sharp and in order. Is that the garden hose coming out the elegant front door?

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Giggles 🤭 yes it is the hose coming out of the front door, I bring it though the house as at the moment we only have one outside tap that’s in the Courtyard lol 😂 I must get around to fitting one in the front 👍🏼 you have a good eye Thank you for your message and have a wonderful week and all the best 🌱 Chip

[@joydaniel597]

Chip may I know trees are in front of boxwoods? Thanks

[@ChipsGreenWorld]

Hi Joy 🤠 yes indeed the three Trees are Holm Oaks very good for topiary 👍🏼 Thank you for your message and have a wonderful day 🌱 Chip
