Looks beautiful. All the very best to Richard regarding his health. Hope you both enjoy/enjoyed your cruise. It will be exciting to see some frog spawn in early Spring!
Ah thank you Iris, I have eaten 2 plums (I found a 6th one!), they are lovely. At least now I’ve discovered how to do shorts I can easily do little updates. Hope you’re ok ❤️😊
@@TheEnthusiasticGardener Good thanks, nice and warm in Edmonton still, but nights are cooler. Sad to see some of the annuals dying off but perennials are still blooming and looking good.
Good morning Janette, I was just thinking of you this morning. I sure do miss you. I do love hearing from you. What a treat! I hope you and Richard are doing well and enjoying some downtime. The plums are beautiful. The cold got mine again this year. Have a great week ❤
Hello there, now I’ve discovered “shorts” I can do them so easily and in one minute 😊 so I’ll be able to post little updates still and keep connected which is great 👍 ❤️😊
@@TheEnthusiasticGardener Mmm, still to look forward to! I'm fine thank you, a weekend off of gardening helping both my brother and daughter move houses. Was glad of Saturdays rain but not ideal for shifting furniture! I hope you and Richard are well too of course!
@@TheEnthusiasticGardener Indeed, yes back to it tomorrow. You both take care too! The nights are really drawing in already and I've seen Christmas products on the shelves already! Ridiculous.
Hi Janette Do you remember Ready Steady Cook? They came up with delicious recipes using few ingredients. Probably a pudding and sticky plum sauce with beef strips. Enjoy🫐🫐👍🌟💞
Hi Janette Do you remember Ready Steady Cook? They always came up with delicious puddings with 5 plums and probably a sticky plum sauce with beef strips. Enjoy 🫐🫐😋🌟💞
Hello Janette Your ferns are showstoppers. You've really looked after them. Obviously love the position. Your ponds are gorgeous. So pleased that you have the time to chat to us💯💕💞
Thank you Sharon, although Mark has told me I need to separate the different Polypodiums or their rhizomes will knit together so I’ll have to do that soon!! So pleased I’ve discovered how to do shorts as that’s going to be so easy to film little updates, so that’s going to be fun. Hope you’re having a happy Sunday my friend ❤️😊
Thank you so much Val, I need to thin those rosettes in the ponds next. Hope you’re having a happy Sunday. I deleted my plums video by mistake playing around with my settings 😂😂 so I think you’re the only person who saw that one 😂😊❤️
Gorgeous rose! Hoping we get rain soon. We haven't had rain in almost 30 days and our lawns are crispy! Hope you, Richard, and Lottie are having a lovely day.🌻
That's incredible Janette, I'm a great believer in cutting anything that's not doing well right back. Often this seems to restore vitality, and sometimes it kills them off😅 so you have to be brave xx
Yes we have to be brave you’re right there Julie, and it paid off this time. I decided anything that’s struggling just has to go, we need toughness in the garden 😂 hope you’re having a great weekend 😊❤️
Good morning lovely Janette Too good to miss that beautiful rose. Plants are amazing. With me having so many in containers i even forget about them, then lo and behold a beautiful bloom lures you towards it.Then you think " i knew i bought that for a reason"😮 The rain was much needed yesterday and what I call ordinary rain. Ordered my white narcissi for next year and blue muscari. You can maybe guess the narcissi variety? I will now disclose last years tulip variety😂 It was...QATAR😢. The writing promised it to be so fantastic. What a fiasco and flop it turned out to be. Never again. Enough of plants. Please tell Richard we are willing so hard for his recovery and good health❤❤ p.s. I know what you mean about the true beauty of plants not translating through photos etc. Have a wonderful Sunday and Bank holiday💯💞💫🤩🍰☕
Hi Sharon and my tulips were a washout this year too!! Yes the rain was much needed wasn’t it? Thanks for your lovely message to Richard, we are just waiting for his scan results right now. Hope you’re having a happy day too 😊❤️
Hello there, yes you can although I’ve never done it. You’d collect the seed pods when they’ve gone light brown, put them in a warm dry place until they burst open and then harvest the small black seeds and store them in a cool dark place until planting them. Hope that helps 😊
Totally get it! Been going through a similar dilemma myself. Hope you enjoy spending time in the garden, have a lovely cruise and best wishes for Richard’s recovery. ❤
Thank you for your calming video Miss. In an attempt to attract more wildlife such as bees and butterflies, I planted a honeysuckle in a rural Cburchyard the other day, though sometimes I wonder if I am more of an undertaker than a gardner! Anyway, time will tell
Hi guys, I came across the video and found urs and I really liked it. The garden is magnificent. I love the Japonica. It's such a big bloom leaf plant. But O e question I have is that I have a balcony south facing g and I have 2 both in large plant baskets, do u think that's alright for them?
@P.willow hi there and I’d say yes! They are really tough plants and of course they are going to get big, but I have 3 in containers and they’re fine. As long as we remember that containers rely on us to provide all their water, they should be quite happy. And I have Fatsias in shade as well as sun too so they’re very versatile. 😊❤️
@@TheEnthusiasticGardener Hi lovelies.. I have one in the sun and one in dappled sun/shade area ido this sometimes to see what the plant really likes if I'm not sure. They both look fine 2wks later and are not showing signs of distress 😊 Thanks soo much for the advice. I'm looking g into getting some bamboo also. I have loved Japanese maple and bamboo for a long time they're my favourite along with fern. My next green friend will hopefully be a lovely big bushy Bamboo to grow nice and tall. Have a lovely week. X
That is such a good test, planting them in different positions to see how they do! And I have to agree with you about bamboo, so many people shy away from them in case they’re invasive don’t they? But not all varieties are. I think they’re beautiful 🤩
Hello there and that’s such a shame you have powdery mildew but don’t worry too much because it’s unlikely to kill your honeysuckle and mine (a few years later) is still going strong. Hope you’re having a great week ❤️🧡
A really good video, told me exactly what I needed to know and without all the frilly bits. Thank you for posting. A great job, your fence is transformed.
Hi there and thank you!! I must tell you though that this was back in the lockdown in 2020 and … it needs doing again!! I’m trying to muster up the enthusiasm 😂😂 hope you’re having a great week 😊❤️
A break is as good as a rest, so they say. Take care to you both and Richard will come through as you are both such good people. Always enjoy your video. Bye for now.
My thoughts are with you and Richard. I have had so much pleasure from your videos and hope and pray you are supported through the coming months until you are ready to start sharing your garden and yourself with us once more. Your contribution on you tube has been greatly appreciated as the many lovely comments testify to. I will miss you in the meantime but I send you my very best wishes to you and Richard.
I bought a braided willow to grow in a patio container and was told when I put it in the patio container to leave it in the original plant pot for a year to let the plaiting get established . Mines lost alot of it leaves maybe due to Lack of water. Hoping it doesn’t die as they are quite expensive
Hi Carole and thanks for watching 😊 I hadn’t heard of leaving it in the pot to establish the plaiting and as you know I didn’t do that 🥴 but I do know that all willows want SO much water, so I’m thinking that might well be why yours is losing leaves. But I wouldn’t worry too much because they say you can dig them up, move them around, cut all the leaves off, and they’ll still keep growing. They’re so attractive aren’t they? Do let me know how it goes 🧡❤️
