I had such an overwhelming response from last year's veg seed-sowing guides, that I'm going share my knowledge of flower growing too... but with the help of some brilliant KZbin gardeners and growers. Thanks to Liz Zorab for joining me in this month's video! Make sure to check out her channel!

God bless you from texas USA , I love your content & your IRELAND back ground , We always bought our Plants for Food, but this year at 56 & my husband 58 We are making our own Starter plants. Tomamos, peppers , so many different we cant buy at the big stores & we are planting our whole property with plots , Raised beds , even pots. Grown bags on our wrap around deck on property. Plus getting chickens in 6 weeks - for fresh eggs . Our PRICES HAVE gone crazy , so millions more will b starting gardens this year, so we have been buying since b4 Our Thanksgiving & christmas. Always taught my children how to garden, fish , can , make bread etc to be to take care of theirselves always, Now teaching our Granddaughters ages 9 & 8 They loved gardening last year & helping me ( noni & pops ) grow so much food & fruits , Every one should give the knowledge of Gardening , fishing to their children , grandchildren , also sewing , cooking etc.... A beautiful informative content . God bless you Mrs. Josette Tharp Montgomery County , Texas usa 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Nice reminder that spring will come again. Great insert with Liz on the Hollyhocks. They are tough plants. Out here in North Dakota USA in zone 4 where it's common to go down to -30 Fahrenheit and even lower with the wind chill these troupers come up every year. It's interesting that the ones we see out here are from seeds the settlers brought in the 1800's and still have a home. If I were one of those settlers It would bring me pleasure to know they were still being enjoyed.

Dear Niall, it's JANUARY 2024 , A stormy rainy cold Saturday morning and I'm rather new to your Yoot-Yoob channel 🌷🌷 Your enthusiasm 😊 is as sweet as your Sweet peas, And that's sweetly encouraging . Talking about SWEET PEA SOWING, I want to suggest an open discussion amongst you and your followers: I have sown a few batches of sweet peas over a month ago novembre- December . Seeds were from newly bought packets from "Mister fothergils" as well as "Thompson and Morgan" from UK . I had only mild germination rate in some, and a miserable germination rate in one of the varieties. To be sure, i just sowed a new batch a few days ago in a slightly different potting compost. I wonder how long can you soak them for❓ Minimum ❓ maximum ❓if at all needed.. Do you soak at room temperature, or keep cold ❓ Please share.. What's your experience guyyyzz .. I'd love to hear Mishmish. (Zone 9-10 here )

I haven’t found that snapdragon needs heat to germinate. Well, other than your standard inside heat where I germinate all my seeds. The temp varies between 63-68F, so if folks want to save their heating mat space (I know I do!), just leave them on a kitchen table and they’ll germinate in a week. :)

Hi Joan I am so pleased you are talking about Winter Sowing - it’s AMAZING. You don’t need to have grow lights or take up space indoors. Cold stratification and hardening off are taken care of too. This is my second year of trying this method, I live in Hertfordshire, UK, zone 8b my garden can get as cold as -7Centigrade. I have collected my orange squash bottles and milk jugs, and plan to start some Winter Sowing this weekend, so excited. I’m Sowing Larkspur , Foxgloves, Lavender, Poppies, Pansies,. And an assortment of Hardy Annuals and Hardy Perennials. Half Hardy seeds like Petunias and Cosmos I will Winter Sow later in March.

Wow!!! actually I might have to give geraniums and begonias a go. I love geraniums in cooking and begonias I used to grow as a kid. I'm putting lavender in today and I have black Hollyhocks for when we move. You know if i start a flower garden im blaming you lol in all the right ways of course lol

Oh lavender - gorgeous! And it'll be super with the hollyhocks. Feel free to blame me, I'm willing to take the heat for that! 😂 I didn't realise you could eat geraniums?!! That's cool - what do you do with them?

I'd love to grow sweet peas. I've never seen them in real life. Can I set them to growing up other plants like shrubs or cosmos?

I think you'd love Sweet Pea. I would recommend growing them up structures - they get quite heavy and can really overwhelm other plants.

Hi Anna! Thanks so much, and welcome! Delighted that you've subscribed. You've just made me realise a very good point... the seed list was up for that month, but then it falls off the site. I'm going to make up some seed lists to remain permanently on the site. Thanks!

Great thanks Niall! Also would love any videos on keeping a garden tidy. Or restyling it so it’s easier to do so.. Right now have plantex and wood chip that’s starting to look worn, has moss etc.. it gets weed spray once or twice a year. Edges of the lawn get trimmed but still that cross-over between lawn edge and the woodplank edging.. can’t have the grass go right up to it, or it can’t be cut.. trying to figure out keeping it all low maintenance for elderly relative. Thanks!

Hollyhocks are lovely and the bees love them but they are very prone to rust and potentially they grow to be enormous so I think those things need to be taken into consideration before going ahead with them.

Niall, could you recommand any online shops with flower seeds in Ireland the ones that will send seeds to Poland. Due to Brexit I can't order any seeds from English online shops. I am very interested in Sweet Peas. Best regards from Poland Marta

I did and put them on my large heat mat. It also took them 3 days to germinate. The seed was definitely softer the next day.
