Sounds like a cistern, we have one in our yard and another under our house! They used them to store rain water for laundry, watering animals etc. so that they would save on well water in heat of summer! There might have once been a barn or house there at one time! We actually have the ruins of a old burned out church at the edge of our property! The beauty of old property, you never know what treasure you will find! ❤️😁

I’m a relatively new subscriber. Nicole, your sense of humor is just a riot and I always find myself laughing out loud while I watch your videos. So, I always thought it was quite humorous that you called your husband “Brad Pitt”. I thought it was just your humor coming out, not realizing (until I went to your website) that your last name is actually Pitt! Yeah, it takes me a while to catch on. Just wanted you to know I enjoy your energy, your humor, and of course your flowers.

Archaeologist here: that’s a concrete cistern. It was used to catch and store rain water off of a roof or as a holding tank for water pumped from a well. It’s probably from between 1925 and 1965. We sometimes call these “swimming pool cisterns” as opposed to bell-shaped cisterns which were an older 19th century style they made with bricks. It’s missing it’s cap and that’s why it’s open like that. It probably had a wood or thin concrete cap that’s long gone.

I think I already commented on this video, but I watched it a second time. The wildflower bouquet is the prettiest of all the ones you made. I love that it has airy feel which adds a whimsical touch. Goldenrod is my favorite wildflower. I tried picking some this last fall but it was covered in pollinators and such. So glad it's not an allergen. One year while out in the country, after my husband had to listen to me carry-on about its beauty and how much I loved it, he suddenly pulled over, got out his pocket knife and cut me a bouquet....Maybe to get me to shut up ...but it's still a little romantic?

I LOVE your channel and this is my first video! 😂😂😂 It amazes me how similar we are. Im from upper Michigan and every single part of your landscape view is almost identical to how amazing the Upper Peninsula Michigan is. Right down to the inner forest area, which was one of my very favorite places too! Also, as a child I had this amazing birch tree that I sat in all the time and sadly it had to.be cut down some years ago. Thankfully my dad still owns his land and when I return home (in GA now) I love to roam the fields and woods. Also, the dumping grounds, is common up there too! 😂 They are a treasure trove! What a huge blessing to stumble upon your video. I was simply looking for wildflower garden videos and happened upon yours. But all the content was amazing! I LOVE gardening and am trying my very best to turn our yard into a cottage garden landscape. Anyway cant wait to watch more! The bouquets were lovely. The first one I kept saying (in my head 😂😂😂) the dark pink flower and you ended up using it! 😂 So pretty!

Thank you for the snake root identification. I saw some this fall and couldn't figure out what it was. It got me thinking. Maybe you could do a video next year about plants to leave alone like wild parsnips which cause rashes and can be confused with queens ann's lace. Even a wildflower tour in spring in your woods would be cool. Who know what you may have in there.
@FlowerHillFarm

Nicole, the bent zinnia heads can be fixed with floral wire. You can buy "sticks" of wire and slip the wire through the flower head and down the center of the stem. The wire can't be seen when it's flush with the top of the flower. It will hold the head upright and fix the bend. I had the same trouble with some of my zinnias that I was delivering to a florist. She saw the bent heads and I was mortified but she was like, "no problem, watch this." Your local florist may have some wire and know this trick too.

I think its so awesome you have all that property and memories in your home! I moved every year with my mom, the only house I really had memories in was my dads, who died when I was 9. The house was left to me, so my mom, step dad & I moved in it & sue never paid the taxes so it was auctioned off. 😥 I just recently found out the truth. My mom told me it was sold to pay his debts, but my dad fell off a 3 story roof and broke almost every bone in his body and was on social security, so I knew that was a lie. (& my mom & step dad had plenty enough $ to pay $600 a year for the property taxes! They were living there rent free, & she was taking the $600 a month I got when he died as like child support & putting in her savings!) SMH. Sorry for the rant...

Fun fact about burrs on burdock. They were the inspiration for Velcro (or hook and eye tape). My herbalist instructor told us that the inventor was curious about them when his dog came home with several burrs stuck to his fur. He examined one under a microscope and saw tiny hooks on them. I love stripping leaves off flower stems the way you do. Therapeutic. I'm terribly allergic to ragweed. I once made the mistake of letting some plants go to seed and years later I'm still pulling up plants (I've even snuck into my neighbors' yard to pull their weeds I can't reach through their chain link fence). I'm sure they won't care.

I should add, my instructor talks to the wild plants he forages. He gets their permission to harvest and only takes what he needs. Then he thanks them for their bounty. You and he would be kindred spirits. Matthew Alfs. He's written a few books on wildflowers and their medicinal properties. Here in Minnesota.

Have you considered using a parasitic seed like yellow rattle that will attach to the grass and provide a yellow flower along with the other wild flowers you plant to increase the success of the wildflowers. I know that they use this in England in their wildflower fields. I’d love to have a wildflower field. I had to laugh when you were putting the flowers in the vase and called the goldenrod ragweed. Lol I’m growing the fireworks goldenrod to use in arrangements. I thought snake root was conical shaped. I need to take a wildflower class so I can identify things better. Lovely arrangements as always. Wish I had an ounce of your energy and enthusiasm! Thanks

@gardengatesopen
@gardengatesopen 4 года назад
I've heard of using Yellow Rattle too! Great Idea!!! Apparently, it's a well known, and normal thing over in Britain. You have to plant it in the fall I think. And it might be picky to get started too. But since you have a good cold season up there it will have a good vernalization period automatically. The plant feeds off certain enzymes in grasses - only grasses. So the grass cannot flourish, but all the flowers can! It's also known as The Meadow Maker And called Rattle bcuz the seeds grow inside a pod, and when it's all done you can shake the seed pod and it has a nice Rattle sound. The yellow flowers are cute too! You should hurry and order some Nicole!!! It's kinda hard to find on this side of the pond!

Loving your videos I was wondering where and what type of wild flower seed you would recommend to cover some hills.

Wonderful video and flowers! Quick question. Do I need to work the land to grow these? Or can I throw them into the grass and I will just do it's thing?

Apparently if you sit flowers like zinnias through mesh on top of the bucket they will stay tall and strong longer
