Linda, I have to say you are the most well dressed gardener I have ever seen❣ I am usually gardening in old military boots and fatigue pants🥵. Cheers to you👏! You make gardening look so elegant🌿💚

Love that dress!

@cacticollector6542 2 года назад

Linda , I’ve had to recognize my limitations with gardening. I’m 63 now and have heart failure and will be getting my hip replacement with in a month or so. I purposely bought a home with a postage stamp back yard and long skinny flower beds and some containers for my pouch and small patio. That’s about all I can handle now and I’m very happy and enjoy it very much. It’s not a burden any longer.

@LindaVater 2 года назад

Great decision!

@gardener5158 2 года назад

I completely understand when you say you are sick of gardening. I think we all get to the point where we just want to sit & say ahhh, I did it & it looks beautiful! Everything really does look beautiful Linda!

@reneel2502 2 года назад

It's so wonderful to hear you say you are sick of gardening! Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one. Love gardening but BOY HOWDY! It can get tiring at the end of the season. Always glad for your honesty and wisdom!

I love your voice Stewart, I can listen to it all day long.

@vickiebrannon5217 2 года назад

Everything looks so beautiful! One of the many reasons I enjoy your garden is because it isn't big like GA. It is on a more realistic scale for me, yet it is full of inspiring ideas that are attainable. You have a good variety of plants and great garden design. I hope you will have time to just sit and enjoy what you have created. Many thanks to you and Stewart! Have fun in Singapore!

Hi Linda, I like the natural silvery patina of your fence much better than painting or staining it. It reminds me of gracefully aged teak.

@shirleyprescott1528 2 года назад

I love the way your seeing things in a bright way, when I might see it for doom and gloom. The Fence: Color, Replace boards?? You always come up with great ideas to make ME feel good about the not so PERFECT! I live on a farm and a couple of cows got out and damaged the bottom branches of my arborvitae! I was so upset, but now ....may make a topiary out of it! Thank You!

@angelakilroe3271 Год назад

Hi Linda, I love, love your videos and you have given me so many ideas for my own garden. Can I now give you some advice. I’m 79 and have designed and tended my large garden, back and front for 50 years and have only just this year decided I could do with some help. Don’t ‘retire’ too early because your body will retire with you. At any age you can get somebody to do the garden for you but the satisfaction of doing it yourself is priceless! Have a lovely weekend. Angela.

@Nanabanana464 2 года назад

Lovely, just love what you have done! We too after 40+ years of gardening had someone come and prune our shrubs, hedges and branches. It was just the boost we needed. Enjoy the beauty you created .💕🐝

@juneramirez8580 2 года назад

Love how groomed your boxwood hedge looks!!! Always love to see your garden. Your vlog is so relaxing and takes me away from the harsh realities I live with day by day. I bought one of those hand held shears for my garden. I have used it so many times already and my garden looks better! The most severe heat is just about over here in the Arizona low desert Zone 9B. We have finally had some good rains in my area and the plants are all doing so well now. So looking forward to our mild winter this year. I will so like to do my own gardening work, but at the age of 72 I am realizing it's more than I can handle myself. So I will be asking for help from my boys whenever needed. Linda I really appreciate you telling us when you have that extra help. You still do most of the maintaining and it is beautiful. I really love your brickwork and I'm looking forward to redoing mine

@LindaVater 2 года назад

We need to recognize our limitations!

@saphire82 2 года назад

I’m sick of gardening too but I’m in zone 4 so I know I need to enjoy every bit of it because I’m going to miss out over our long winter. I love the scale of your garden , I prefer to watch yours with the charm of your videos, your frugality, the realness.

The dappled shade/ sun patterns that blanket your beautiful space are my favorite. I 100% agree with all you’ve said about gardening in a small space, which is what I have also.You have really inspired me with your alternative grass and brick and gravel beds- I am going to incorporate much more of this and hope to free more time just to rest and take it all in. ❤️U

@elizabethsmolens2752 2 года назад

It really does seem like the summer that will never end. 🧐🧐☺️. The humidity is off the charts! So grateful for some rain, but with it always comes muggy and buggy. I didn’t think it could get any buggier, but it has! I was hoping to ease into September after such a hot, dry summer, but seems we need to sweat it out, literally, a little while longer. So grateful that there is not epic flooding or drought like some places are having though. 🙏🏻🙏🏻. It has been a good and productive and rewarding summer here in Missouri, so there is much to be grateful for! Thanks for inspiring us all, Linda! 💜

Hi Linda, I love all your videos and have used many of your ideas. I watched your video on 5 things you would not do again because it is too time consuming. I have one that you may have not thought about. It is your glass table. I had a glass table but quickly realized it was too much work keeping it clean every day. So I bought a table with a metal top and wa laa! No more cleaning glass and when I water the plants it just drains through, so nice for me. Thanks for all your videos, I am trying to make my yard look like yours. 😊

I hear ya on being sick of gardening. It’s been a brutal summer for a lot of us. I’m in KS zone 6. I’ll still want to do it all again in the spring but I’m just ready for cool weather and some down time. Your garden looks wonderful! So nice to enjoy! My garden is still in the beginning stages at this new house. I’ve got tons of stuff to plant this fall that I’ve nursed through the heat. Then I can relax, can’t wait for the gardening season to be over. ❤️🍂🍁😘

@ronstader7976 2 года назад

Lynne here Linda. It takes talent and a good eye to make the changes you’ve made, particularly the pavers, and it looks like they’ve always been there. Your garden is seamless and it takes both talent and a good eye to do that. Question, are you planning on doing any video consultations any time soon? I’d sign up in a minute. Thank you

I am also grateful to have a small garden and the challenges it presents. I get so many great ideas from you.

Winter is leaving us and spring is nearly here.all the bulbs i moved last year are growing, not in bloom yet. I can't thank you enough Linda , for all the tips and suggestions you give. My garden now flourishes. It is a joy to be able to be out in th sunshine again.

Hey Stewart ...while Linda's away, I'd love it if you would sit down in one or more of the chairs or benches and show us the view from them. I'm sure each spot would provide a wonderful of Linda's spectacular garden that we haven't seen from that perspective.

@Edu_Kate 2 года назад

Oh, I'm so glad you said it out loud! Me, too!!! I've spent so much time working in my garden in heat and humidity and even rain, mostly weeding, but I haven't spent much time at all just relaxing in it. I had some lilies planted later last year so was looking forward to seeing what color they are. Nope. Missed the bloom time completely. 😟 From the desk in my office, I look out and can appreciate what I've done and that makes me happy. I just have very little motivation left and have been looking forward to winter. 😱 Now, today, I did pick up some small mum plants and they're still in my car. Tomorrow. Everytime I want to plant something I have to first weed. Crab grass is my current nemesis. That, and pigweed (which I'd been misnaming it as amaranth). I just want to whack everything back. I'm done gardening. Until next spring, of course. By the way, I really love all the green in your yard. I used to love English cottage gardens. Now I think they look cluttered. You've inspired me and I may add some Emerald Green arborvitae and just make sure to keep them shaped.

@bettenotap4791 2 года назад

It’s the small things that make a difference, I know it was a lot of work but it’s amazing how cohesive and restful everything looks. Love the use of the new plants, gorgeous!

I’m glad to see someone else likes to wear a dress while gardening. Truly, if it’s over 80 degrees, I’m in a dress. Not anything fancy but so much more comfortable. Here in Texas it was brutal this summer and I had a favorite black dress that technically is a “swim dress” from Athleta. I could get sweaty and wet and keep cool. Justin boots and a big hat and if the neighbors wanted to watch, they deserve what they see! I’m kidding but try gardening in a dress! It’s much more fun since sweat happens might as well feel pretty😅

I dug up most of my geraniums this week. They just looked terrible from the heat and I didn't want to look at those sad little plants anymore. So I have blank spaces where I can't fill for another month or so. I love the the little area where you put in the bricks and gravel and how it opens up yur space.

@stephenquina7555 2 года назад

Leucothoe is a great little shrub! It does flower but the flower is not too noticeable. It's a little white bell-like flower hanging from the branches. The foliage is the best thing about it in my opinion and those sinuous branches and new burgundy leaves. They are native to Eastern woodlands and often grow along streams. I didn't know it could take a lot of sun...always thought of it as a shade shrub.

@LindaVater 2 года назад

Oooh! Sinuous branches!

@afoshee77 2 года назад

Stephen, this is one of my favorite shrubs for fall/ winter interest. The leaf color in fall and the branches are a reddish color through winter. I have also thought of leucothoe as a dry shade solution in my zone 8b PNW garden. Perhaps #southernlivingplants has come up with a sun tolerant variety. Have you noticed an early spring bloom with fragrance? Thank you for the garden goodness share!

@agnescarbone6815 2 года назад

I also get jealous of others bigger gardens .When I say something my husband will tell me to go outside and look at my own garden that I have done a fantastic job and those same people are probably jealous of it and I do have to say my garden for a person that knows nothing about gardening it does look pretty nice . I am 69 and I tell myself how foolish of me to want to make another garden bed when I know I have enough work keeping up with the area I have .For you saying that you also get jealous makes me feel better that I'm not the only one to have those feelings. ❤
