First of all, let me say that I found your channel after watching an episode with you and Janey. Yay! More videos of the two of you together please. And, this is a big AND, I lived in Paradise and survived the campfire, that destroyed 90% of what once was a beautiful town. Your episodes of shopping at.The Plant Barn pulled at my heart strings. I was a frequent customer. Denise has a beautiful Nursery. I miss it.and I miss what once was the town of Paradise?. I have subscribed to your channel,, and I am in the process of playing catch up with your episodes. You obviously put a lot of thought into your videos and I am so hooked. I am finally coming home this August to visit family and friends. I am beyond excited. And of course I will visit The Plant Barn. The problem is, I will be unable to bring anything home. Bummer! What a hoot that would be to find you there also. :)

Not “ruffing” the roots isn’t the end of the world, some plants don’t actually like it. Keep doing you Robbie! 🌱 I am still in awe of both you and Janey and how far you’ve both come with your channels! Both so much fun to watch and love the colabs between the two of you, because of you two I’ve discovered other channels, such as Kate from Hello Garden… Do you have any t-shirts in black that say not my rooster?? Watching from 🇨🇦

[@peggyfrommanitoba7310]

You love receiving letters, you always express your love and appreciation for your viewers (fans), you place plants in your friend’s garden when she wasn’t looking, you bring comic relief when we need it the most... you are one in a billion Robbie! Get some more of that Edge Right because you are making your own path to big time success with your work ethic and limitless kindness!! ♥️🇨🇦

[@visitourgarden]

Peggy, I don’t even know what to say. This made me tear up. Thank you for making this all so worth it 💚

[@peggyfrommanitoba7310]

Sending you the biggest hug a Manitoban can give! Now don’t let those tears go to waste, go outside and water some plants with them!! 😘🇨🇦

[@alicehihn3250]

Got my "not my Rooster" hat. Neighbors 2 roosters were loose this morning. Clicked the last plant tag, but someone was quicker. Next time. Thank you for making gardening so much fun.

[@rhondaschenk5727]

Robbie, please don’t push yourself too hard! I worry about you! ❤❤

[@debbiekopy530]

Ohh no! I was late to the party…I missed the Not my Rooster and plant tags! Congratulations 🎉

[@wendycole703]

I really like your bubbler fountain behind you ❤

[@rhondaschenk5727]

I missed out on the plant tags 🥲🥲. But I hope to get some when they are back in stock! Can’t wait to get my hat & stickers! Way to go Robbie, Brent and Jaelyn!!

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Robbie! This was another fun Q&A. I appreciate that you will research something when you don't have an answer to the questions. I love the bubbler fountain behind you. It's just the right size for the area. I'm looking forward to hearing some of your plans for your gardens. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@taragoodloe4122]

Robbie so glad your launch was so successful. I'm also glad you are ordering more plant tags because they were sold out before I got a chance to get me some.

[@Kathi_3454]

I think your “It’s fine” would be good on a hat and a shirt also. Maybe on a hat first. Worth a shot.

[@yolandabrown8949]

Just a little suggestion for future merch - I love when you say “…because that’s who I am as a person…” ❤️

[@Mya-Pearson]

Be honest, Robbie…. How thrilled was the rooster when you took a picture with it😁. Wish I could have gotten the hat🥲. Love the Q&A.

[@janetta5827]

Will you be restocking the Not My Rooster hats,I hope so??? A hat and/or shirt that has the "It's Fine" on it would be awesome.

[@RVBadlands2015]

I love when you do garden tours of friends garden. Can you do a tour of any dry gardens/California natives. I am redoing my entire yard to natives.

[@paulajames6149]

I have heard from Garden Answer and others that there is no need to rough up the roots before planting. Obviously, yes if it is completely root bound. I go with that.

[@shadedfromreality]

Congratulations on your merchandise Robbie! I like to leave the flowers on dusty miller as well! I'm glad I'm not the only one:)

[@marciawright2600]

Now a lot of plant experts say not to rough up the roots. Laura from Garden Answer only does that occasionally if the plants are severely root-bound. 🤷‍♀

[@geraldinethorne6690]

Hi Robbie, I have been looking at your channel for a while but don’t know why I hadn’t subscribed…..but I have hit that button now. Love your attitude about life issues. Don’t worry about anything thing just be HAPPY. Much love to you, Dene 70.

[@virginiaramirez4214]

Happy for you Robbie that your products sold well. 👍🏽

[@cherisemoss7854]

I personally like the dusy miller flowers. I grow mostly for the pollinators. Knowing WHY you garden is important. Gardening is such a personal endeavor. I love seeing your process. Thanks for sharing your gardening journey.

[@deegill1113]

I got 2 abutilon plants from Green Acres in Folsom last year. They grew up 6 feet each and gave me tons of flowers. They overwintered in pots and are doing great. I cut one back and let one. You can’t tell the difference between them. They get a lot of shade under my maple trees. Sacramento 9b shade garden- Daphne

[@debraandersen6895]

Love you and Janey together!!

[@annwoleben5439]

I would use the garden tags as gifts for my garden friends as well as a few for myself.

[@marywilson7669]

That white rose of Sharon is lovely. Never seen that color, mine have purple centers

[@SusanMcgrath-nx7dt]

Awesome!!!❤

[@racheljeremiah9941]

Talking fuchsias, I’m the same not a big fan but this year I have planted three in my seasonal pots and am loving them. Love the channel ❤️

[@LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica]

Hi Robbie you are doing amazing!

[@user-vs4up7ro6y]

Hi Robbie, I love your channel, watch you each morning when I can. I also fought Pokeweed in my yard. I don't like it, my neighbor thinks it is beautiful. Today I received a beautiful bouquet, from a local florist, Christian and Johnson. They have used Pokeweed green flower stems in the arrangement. A stunning addition.

[@darrylinosborn2783]

So excited to hear more about your garden room designs. Inspirational as always. Take time to enjoy your success, your channel content is real and fun to watch.

[@carlarivas1238]

So many congrats on your merch launch. And of course we all love you so it’s not a surprise that many items were sold out!! Question: you looked something up about a plant during the Q and A. Which site do you use for info? Question about drip. When you first plant, say a 1 gallon plant, do you place one emitter at the plant? What about a year later when the plant is larger? Do you add another emitter. I’ve been told that the emitter needs to be away from the base of the plant, and that as the plant grows they will need more emitters. What is your process please, because clearly your plants are happy. Thanks.

[@bevjensen2278]

For what it's worth, I was pleasantly surprised to see the beautiful yellow flowers on the dusty miller and you're right, it's helping the bees! I love your new bubbler fountain behind you! What a score!

[@janiekanzler7776]

Robbie you have a good heart! Worried about your neighbors if you had bees! Wish there were more people in this world like you!! 🥰

[@Susan-hn4dd]

I like that bright yellow against the gray/silver

[@samanthalonghurst-howes1465]

I live in the UK and I have a few types of Abuliton growing which are thriving. I find them to be heavy feeders and mine don’t like drying out but I think it’s very much dependant on where you live regarding care. I do have to overwinter mine inside my greenhouse and house though. I propagate mine via cuttings I have never gone down the seed route before. Great video as always Robbie. Your merchandise looks very cool… I will have to save up for a bit first. It’s the custom charges in the UK that makes buying in from the US so expensive. Much love to you and Brent. Xxx

[@samanthalonghurst-howes1465]

*Abutilon* really should read what I have typed before hitting reply 😜 xxx

[@nadaferris5928]

Nope, no AC here by the Bay Hills. Cross breezes and ceiling fans take care of it especially with the open canyon for our backyard. We have 4-5 days of 80’s in May and June. Usually September and October are the hotter months here.

[@sandramadore4656]

I’m so happy for you

[@cathymikequimbyquimby7315]

Thank you for packing my order! Can’t wait for my Not My Rooster hat. 👏👏💕

[@jennifergreene8891]

Thank you for checking into the abutilon .. I live in zone 9b Texas Gulf Coast, lots of humidity and heat here. I have more seeds and will keep trying until I run out 😂 I will let you know if I succeed 🤪 CONGRATULATIONS on selling your merchandise!! Even though you haven't been roughing the roots up, you are still successful at growing your plants. Thank you for another great Q&A 😊

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Robbie. 💐💚🙃

[@user-pn1bk3kr4w]

Love your videos Robbie. Watch them every morning with my coffee. Amanda in Salem MA

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

Seriously, here on Vancouver Island, off the coast of BC, Canada, we put our AC on if it gets to 80f. Probably even before that. We are only a couple blocks from the ocean so the heat is very humid.

[@Carmen-ok]

Congratulations Robbie ✨ it sure was an amazing week with so many great videos and your new merchandise line launched. Question, how does your neighbor feel about her rooster being so popular on your channel? Also you said that Freya was on the member’s emoji, but I don’t see her, is she hiding behind the willow emoji?😂😂 Love you Robbie 💚🐝

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

I do the same thing- leaving something that has gone to seed for awhile! Thx for the garden tours 🌿🌿🌿

[@stefmcclure9386]

Congrats on the merchandise sales! Great job! Love all your photos on the website. Did you hire a photographer or Brent? They are awesome!

[@kaychaney6102]

I so need those It’s Fine tags!!!

[@babybree175]

now Robbie, Not my rooster hat? You know they would be sold out like hot potatoes..seriously…love you dude. And I garden but I don’t do bugs..butterflies are okay but not bugs..worms nope

[@dinaducheny3450]

You only need to mess with the roots if they are root bound. If not, no need to do that. I have never done that had have great luck with my plants. Also, if you watch Laura at Garden Answer she doesn't either, only if root bound.

[@sheliafears591]

Oooo! I love the water feature behind you. I’m in Savannah GA and can’t find a Fuschia plant 😢I had one when I was young. It was my introduction to gardening. ❤

[@christellet79]

So glad. For the merch sale❤

[@tarynj.7061]

Could you please share where you got the little fountain behind you? 😍

[@TGSHomeandGarden]

I feel you about the butterflies.

[@NCGirl7731]

Call me dumb but where is your merch? I can’t even find a website? Ugh I totally missed it but I couldn’t find it Saturday

[@jasminetaylor5336]

I’m so sad, my hair won’t fit under a hat! I grabbed a shirt though ❤

[@BACKYARDBLOOMSWITHKIM]

I would love to hang out with you and Janey. If you come close to Charlotte let me know. 😊

[@kmsch986]

Can you add a link somewhere to your fountain that’s behind you? I love it❤

[@user-zu9rq5cf8b]

Robbie, you don't rough the roots up....."it's fine'....lol

[@FredricaDitty]

Hi Robbie, can you please add the link to where you got the small bubbler fountain? Thank you🌸

[@gvinthegarden]

Hi Robbie ~ I don't recall seeing the bubbling fountain that is right behind you before, is it new?

[@rosemarydicicco6070]

😊

[@truthtalker4038]

I don't like moths. People laugh at me, but I can't stand them! UGH! I love butterflies though. LOL We all have something.

[@nitahiltner3348]

Missed the blue shirt! Boo hoo!!!! QUESTION: You mentioned Freya is one of the symbols we who join your channel have, but i don't have Freya!!!! I need her!!!

[@christinegray3840]

Did I miss the new plans announcement video in Janey's tour video?

[@erikamar205]

Robbie, are you going to do the parrete with boxwood hedges still?❤

[@sandyduncan914]

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸👍👍

[@Cynthia-zz1vi]

You are not stuck with any of your merchandise it just didn’t sell out in the first 12 to 18 hours like some of the other, I know you’re gonna be ordering what sold out and I’m sure in time you’re still sell your T-shirts and those hats 😊

[@LeighWalker-dd9bg]

Make other merch with “it’s fine….”

[@fancypinkg]

Are you going to give the neighbors rooster anything to thank him for your sales?
