My garden Lilac Hill is located on the West Coast of Canada nestled into the rocky hills of Mowat Bay. After a year of taming the land I can now grow many things including herbaceous perennials, pretty annuals many from seeds, I do container vegetable gardening and container rose gardening because of the deer. There are also trees, shrubs and herbs. I focus on plants that will provide benefit for the wildlife. Also for wildlife the garden has birdhouses, bug hotels, food and various water sources. The garden is 1/4 acre in zone 8. When I am not gardening I am planning new beds and structures, organizing my many plants on a spreadsheet, reading about plants or watching other gardeners on RU-vid. There is always something new to learn and I want to share my gardening knowledge and experiences with other gardeners. I also enjoy tea in the garden as many plants are steeped in tea culture. Lilac Hill is not only my garden it's my life!
💜🎶Good evening .. Love the two colors on the morning glory . I love how you placed your rocks in the garden . Thanks for the inspiring tour .. Beautiful space👍💜 🎶🇨🇦
Beautiful!! What is the plant with the big white puff ball blooms at the beginning of the video? Just found your channel. Can't wait to see more. Thanks
Your garden is so beautiful and the chirping of the birds is amazing. RU-vid suggested your channel to me and you have a new subscriber. I'm looking forward to watch your videos. Greetings Heidi 👩🌾💕
Very pretty, I have always wanted a mock orange but I don’t think it’s hardy in my zone. I have always also wondered what it smells like? I heard it was a sweet smell? Would be very helpful if you could say in the beginning of your videos where you are and what zone and conditions you deal with. I’m shocked to see peonies still blooming, mine were finished a long time ago. And I didn’t think delphiniums bloomed until summer around July
The mock orange smells like a fresh cut orange, it is a citrus smell. We are in zone 8B, but we got especially cold last winter to -10, thats colder than it should be, we rarely go below -4. Lots of people lost plants. I garden in Powell River on the coast of British Columbia. On my next video I will mention this, thank you for your kind comments and advice.
I just seen the sum and substance hosta today. I clicked on your vid because I was trying to find it's name. Ten years! that's a bit of a wait. Very nice garden.
My favourite tree peony. I love how they open with those big luminous full moon buds. I had to leave mine in Brussels which was sad, however it was so well established I didn't want to risk setting it back by relocating it across the Channel.
