Hi Joel, glad to say I've got all these plants in my garden. I heard a while back that red campion is so called because it was named before the word pink was invented. All colours that resembled red, example orange were just known as red as the word orange hadn't been invented either until oranges became widespread & the word orange was invented after the fruit. Of course the word pink came from the ruffles in the pink flower like pinking shears. I'm sure it's on the net somewhere. Thanks for another great vid keep up the great work!

You’ll be pleased to know Joel I’ve got a healthy array of all the mentioned plants excluding honesty . Unfortunately last years drought has hit my cowslip and primroses hard with many casualties but on the flip side I think they knew that and this spring I’ve got hundreds of primrose seedlings appearing this spring . A favourite of mine is wood spurge seems to spread well and it brightens up a dark corner of my garden. Another enjoyable video 👍

I like seeing the caterpillars inside the seed heads for Campion. There are many species that will work their way inside then feed on the seeds, then emerge from the top when it opens up. Another reason to not be too keen to cut everything down too early.

Hi Joel. I've been keeping up with your fab videos even though I've not posted any comments lately. Our garden is in full colour and of course I've got all the plants you mentioned. It has been so wet here I haven't done as much work in the garden as I would have liked. I've had lots of orange tip and holly blue butterflies and have seen a couple of green veined white. I saw the first swifts today on our way back from shopping but they are not in our road yet. I'm hoping they will take a liking to our nest boxes now that we have moved the one we had and added another one. We have been working on land at the tennis club - clearing the ground at the back of the clubhouse, which has been a dumping ground. That is going to be a wild flower area as well as part of the bank and an area of compacted ground that is quite bare at the moment. It's taking a long time as we only do 2/3 hours a week on it but I am hoping we will have some colour this summer. I'm taking seedlings out of my garden which include a few non native annuals but still attract insects and hopefully will look good and prevent people from complaining it looks untidy. I saw wildlife Kate the other day. We were doing a plant survey on Pipe Green. If you get the chance check out Pipe Green Trust's website.

Thanks for another great video Joel. I’ve got a north facing fence and I’ve planted a border below it with lots of hedgerow plants. At the moment my red campion and herb robert have just started flowering and the bluebells are just going over. I’ve got some cowslips, bugle and forget-me-nots too. Later the foxgloves, hedge woundwort and honeysuckle will take over. I would dearly love some honesty but the slugs have always decimated it when I’ve tried to grow it. It is very nostalgic for me too, my mum always grew it in the garden and when we were kids my siblings and I used the seed pods as money when we were playing shops 🤣

I was reassured to hear you say (I think though I am a bit deaf and frequently a bit daft, too!) that seed can lie in the ground for a while before it germinates. sometimes. One of my habits is planting it and then forgetting where it is,, so I am nit sure if it will grow or where to spunkle some more next time! It always fascinates me that wild flowers seem to be able to manage to plant and grow without any problem yet when "Muggins" tries, it is more of a burial, final resting place, procedure than a planting!

All of those are on my favourite list. The Foxgloves come up in different parts of the garden in alternate years. I just leave them to their own, so some years they’re in pots and under the trees as the next year they’ll appear in a border or growing out of larger wall baskets. While the Campion grow in pots here and there. One of the charities I volunteer for, sell bee friendly natives. But come the end of summer, they’ll usually have plants left over. So between the director and myself, we take the ones that the buying public won’t buy, due to the flowers having gone over. And the next year we see what appears. As you say, the Campion will grow just about anywhere. And the rustle of Honest’s pod..

Garlic mustard, 😱 holy cow, one of the most invasive, noxious weeds in the US. I can’t tell you how many hours of my life I’ve had to waste pulling out this invasive. It can blanket cover acres and acres of land, choke out every single native & isn’t host to a single pollinator in this part of the world. So glad you mentioned the caveat about geography.

Thanks Eryn, this will be helpful to those in countries where it has been introduced and of course invasive. I put caveats in as it would take hour long videos to list the countries where some plants are considered invasive, but I hope my UK accent ensures people stop and think :) Each country will have vital native plants that so many insects depend upon, and Garlic Mustard in the UK and wider Europe is vital for many.

Thank you Joan, it's difficult to appeal worldwide, but I'm hoping I can broaden things, as I know we have a lot of great members of the community here based in US. Hope you're doing well, best wishes - Joel

Perfect timing, I have a shady area that I'm looking to fill out behind my pond. Previously I had lamium (dead nettle) which provided a year round carpet of leaves / flowers, but it seems to have died off, shame as the bees loved it!

Hi Adi, glad this was helpful to you :) Dead Nettle is an annual so do buy some seeds and they should come back as the plant obviously liked the situation once and it's such a good plant for many pollinators. Hope this helps - best wishes, Joel

Thank you for this information but sometimes could you stay more focused on the subject advice. Or after do a summary.

My pleasure Simon - but I don't have scripts and do these videos to help others whilst I'm either out and about or at clients' sites and working or try to fit these in on my weekends "off", particularly at this busiest time of year when I'm usually working 6 days/week. My aim is to help everyone to help nature in their own gardens or greenspaces - much as I'd love to do just KZbin videos for a "job", it's really not financially viable :) Every detail needed is in my book "Wild Your Garden", available worldwide. Best wishes, Joel

@@WildYourGardenWithJoelAshton Thanks for your speedy reply. I understand you really pack a lot in and your messages are good. I appreciate your advice and the efforts you put in to make gardens a better place for wildlife. Keep it up. Just so you know because of you, I plan to put a Wilding pond in my garden.

My god 8 minutes and you are just getting to plant #2. Geez, lot of hot air.

I do these videos for free Anne, available to every one. I run two businesses, as well as try to make videos to relay info for those that are genuinely interested. I'd love YT to be a full time "job" but it doesn't pay bills so I fit in videos when I can, I don't have time for scripts either. Cheers anyway.

​​​@@WildYourGardenWithJoelAshton...and a great job you are doing with the videos too Joel, full of useful information! I like your relaxed, spontaneous presentation and it is ideal for people who want to take their time! Some "hot air" is more useful than other hot air and some people need to chill!! Blessings and peace

@@WildYourGardenWithJoelAshton Hope this was not too upsetting. Those types of coments are uncalled for and typically sting pretty bad. Ignore it if you can. On a positive note: I am putting in ca 1/2 acre of *wildflower meadow* and you are the one that inspired me!!! Seeding begins today :-) .
