You have changed my life! I have all hillside in my backyard due to living in the mountains. My side yard is flat, so I bought several galvanized raised beds. Planting as you’ve instructed helped me add so much more to my garden beds! Thank you!!! 🪴👩🌾🏡
Great list! I've seen (and made) quite a few rose mistakes in my time. They aren't my favorite plant, I call them high maintenance drama queens with a drug addiction. But they are gorgeous when they bloom and a wonderful addition to most gardens!
I love this! I want to plan ahead for the next seasons to create a beautiful garden like these. I have all my veggies in grow bags & large storage bins right now. It’s so ugly. Your gardens are a beautiful work of art you can eat! I’m going to aspire to this!
@@Gardenary even though I’ve already got my garden planned out for the year, I can now not stop thinking about how to re-jig it so I can grow the way you’ve described it. I have been planting a perimeter of flowers- mainly French marigolds & throw in chamomile, borage & sunflowers to invite pollinators & predatory insects- not to mention, for plain old beauty but the rest is just so darn difficult to figure out. I planted 3 - 4 ft rows of garlic last fall and have put in some bulbing onions which will limit my re-jig, along with the fact that I planted out my seed started spring crops super early to test out the limits of growing under cover, so now I have some limitations but it’s not gonna stop me trying! 🙃thanks again for the inspiration & information! 💐
Newbee here. I actually think I’d rather do this than boring row by row gardening and having interesting planters would be fun. Thank you but, I read that the composition of soils may need to change with some plants. In this true?
So for containers, just think of this on a smaller scale. Maybe you don't have large plants, but you can definitely surround medium-size plants like Swiss chard with flowers and herbs. That would be a beautiful container!
I tried this style of planting last year in my grow bags and it worked wonderfully. Just adjust depending on size of your grow bags :) I bordered all bags with flowers/herbs.
Hello from Puerto Rico. New to your channel. I love your way of gardening. Would love to see a mini version for balcony, small space or apartment gardening.
I would offer there may be yet another category: Critters and Pests. Brassicas etc need netting in my area so those maybe should be together. We have wild squirrels and turkey and quail so tomato, pumpkin, etc need protection but also need to be available for pollinators. So, maybe clumping flowing/non-flowering plants together is not truly 'companion planting'?
I think your garden planner looks great but it is too difficult to use for someone in Australia. It took me a few tries to remember that in the US you put the date backwards! Month then day...even once I got that right for my first and last frost date it didn't work... Maybe it is only for the Northern Hemisphere which makes sense I guess.

Great video! I really love your top! Do you mind sharing where it is from? So cute!!
Tomatoes are definitely large, even vining types that are trained up a trellis. They're great to mix with other warm season plants of all sizes (think basil, peppers, bush beans, etc.)
Which herbs or flowers help with squash-yellow crookneck and zucchini? Mine are huge, but I’m trying to deter bugs!! I’m in Zone 9b in the Houston area.
