I just love how you have a proper commercial break instead of commercials popping up mid-sentence and breaking the flow. I’ll be growing more flowers next year so this video has given me much to think about. Thank you.

Some flowers you should really add to your garden; coneflower, shasta daisy, gloriosa daisy, dianthus, yarrow, roses and hibiscus. These are perennials that are absolute worth having and give continuous blooms all summer.

I'm so glad I found your video's, my partners and I just got our first house and it's a total blank canvas I've been dreaming of turning into a functional garden space but had no idea where to start, I love that you have taken these empty spaces and turned them into something beautiful and more sustainable. Looking forward to more of your video's!!

Hi Siloe! that stick plant, is an awesome accumulator plant, I use it to do compost tea, just fill a bucket with water and put your sticky weed! it will decompose, you can fertilize with it! Found this info The horticultural benefit of having this weed in your garden is that it indicates fertile soil. Furthermore it is a dynamic accumulator of sodium, silica and calcium - so great to make a liquid feed or soil drench. I am not saying cultivate it, but use it if you have it. If you can’t bear the thought of including a weed in your food, medicine or horticultural practices that’s ok too. As a weed it does outcompete other crops for nutrients, water and sunlight and one of its drawbacks is that it hosts nematodes, insect pests and plant diseases, not least Verticillium; a fungal pathogen that causes vascular wilt of brassica. It is resistant to a number of herbicides but hot water/steam and flame work. The best method is manual extraction before seeds form

I wouldn't give up on that hydrangea, I would however consider propagating it to a different spot in your yard to find a warmer micro climate. I have a hydrangea in my front yard facing east, right against my house and it flowers each year. I'm in Connecticut Zone 6b.

Try cold stratification. Throw them in the freezer or die them before the winter sets in. Don't cover them really feel just sort of lightly cover and tamp in. You can also germinate inside in a small 6 cell some covered greenhouse from dollar tree...then transplant

I was doing the Ziploc and paper towel and pop in the bag. It works but the plate one is much better because I can catch them as they start rooting. It's not fun untangling the roots if they grow long. So, thanks for the tips. :)

One of my disappointments when I had to move in January was that my red poppies had finally established themselves and were very showy. They are going to be part of my new garden. From the long distance shots I can see that your house's front yard differs from the others. How "ho hum" those are, how boring and non-productive.
