I can't wait to see the final result of your wedding flowers. So special to be able to grow your own.

has she posted that yet? I came here to find it, but haven't.

Very good plant and very inspiring thank you for sharing

@samatronn Год назад

Seeing you crouch at the front of the Polly tunnel next to the nettles makes me want to yell out "don't get stung" hah!

@annmoy8932 Год назад

It’s always so nice watching your videos. Your voice is calming and your garden is so peaceful and beautiful. Thanks for sharing as always.

@RyansGardenDiaries Год назад

cant wait to see these :]

@jodygardens Год назад

My zinnias did the same thing this week. Love the appearance of that amaranth.

@stevekay1766 Год назад

The foxgloves look absolutely fabulous, the allium do too, I am having trouble getting my cosmos seeds to germinate, normally I just put seeds straight into the border but this year absolutely nothing, I bought some seed compost placed that in the garden but still nothing so now I am trying some in small plant pots, fingers crossed this works, the allotment is really taking shape now 👍

@christiensgarden3325 Год назад

Can’t wait see.. love your channel

@herstrangekind Год назад

Am I brave enough to pinch out my dahlias? I’ve only just now started that process with the Cosmos and it makes me feel like an executioner! I think your dahlias are going to epic, thanks for showing us how the plants are growing.

@sarahmunoz14 Год назад

Pinch them! If you have cutting varieties (30-48 inches), you need to pinch them to get blooms in quantity and stem length. I know it’s hard but it must be done just like regular deadheading.

@georgemartin9618 Год назад

So many beautiful flowers, it will be the wedding of the year .

@VoodooCrab Год назад

I have watched both the May tour video and this one, and I don't mind at all seeing things twice! I love your garden and the gate to it. It reminds me of The Secret Garden book and the movie from the 1990s. Sending love from blessings from the USA!

@jaynelloyd007 Год назад

I'm in Coventry. I put my dahlias out after last frost, which was the beginning of May this year. They are all about 3 foot tall with buds. I find they do better with a bit of cold. I have no yellowing that's definitely a deficiency.

@ThatBritishHomestead Год назад

I LOVE that idea! i would love to do the same!

@dogontheplot Год назад

Had to pause to say my honesty has also not flowered yet (I'm also in East Mids) - all self seeded, normally everywhere - but this year only leaves so far... like you, I'm hoping for a late flowering.

@homegrowngarden Год назад

Interesting! Good to know I’m not alone.

@malonekenny1 Год назад

looking great

@markvincent5241 Год назад

Doing a fabulous job, have a lovely plot. Well done.

@doughaynes1048 Год назад

Love your garden 🪴 , enjoy it and the rewards you get out of it .😀😀🧤

@robertr7569 Год назад

The soil in those beds looks fabulous. Wish some area's in our garden had that texture. 🌻 😬

@jennyjohnson9012 Год назад

How lovely Katrina. So exciting to see all these beautiful flowers growing for your special day!

@jasonmorrow9616 Год назад

The Allotment's going to be completely MT of colour the day before your wedding! 😄 I hope you're not planning to do all the harvesting yourself. You won't have time. 😳

@SunshineGarden-9B Год назад

Garden is amazing! Your wedding is going to be so beautiful 😀

@anitacollingwood4224 Год назад

I love that you’re growing your own flowers! I’ve tried several packets of strawflowers and have only ever had one successful plant! And only a handful out of dozens of seeds even germinated! There must be a secret to it.

@NATURALBEEKEEPERSCOLLECTIVE Год назад

If I was to slosh the hose around you gotta be careful :) I totally lost it at Ludwig Hercules lol Ludwig Helfer has frizzy orangish petal flowers that resemble helichrysums.

@aaron1143 Год назад

My better half and I love your videos. Fellow Nottingham folk 👍🙂

@carmenbailey1560 Год назад

Wow, all those plants, Let the good time roll. Love the alliums. Thanks for sharing and so looking forward to seeing the garden in full bloom. 👍❤️😊

@lindseynoel3522 Год назад

Only half way through the clip but just wanted to say my honesty that I planted last year hasn’t flowered either! I’m wondering if it could be weather related? Right I’m going to watch on! X

@cheriedodd9358 Год назад

If you planted last year, like I did, you may have to wait for flowering next year

@cheriedodd9358 Год назад

Such a relaxing, beautiful country garden ❤. Just wondered if the plants that weren't flowering yet were biennial? Waited on my honesty to flower this year (New Zealand), but just lots of greenery.. Then realised they won't flower until next summer 🤪

@chicoetsonjardin9215 Год назад

👋 super potager bravo👍👍 merci pour ce partage a bientôt Chico🙏

@christinabotha5652 Год назад

Cannot wait to see your flowers for your special day.

@user-fe6vt1xm1n Год назад

I found sweet peas amazing for natural confetti, dry super easy & retain a nice colour.

@flowerpixel Год назад

Im in Atlanta (hot and wet) and it's funny to me how your cosmos look so much better than your zinnias. I didn't realize they were more "cold" tolerant until just now. You're going to love your statice!!! I need to find somewhere to cram allium schubertii 😅

@aasaan_islam Год назад

Beautiful hobby Gardening. Stay blessed

@jayneeburks8482 Год назад

Can’t wait for the flowers to start showing. It will be glorius!

@adrianlouw2499 Год назад

I was told that there are 100's of different species of powdery mildew and the ones that occur on your squash can only live on squash leaves, not any other plant. Same goes for every plant's powdery mildew meaning your squash can't spread it to any other species of plant.

@mawkernewek Год назад

Allotment looking great, really good display of foxgloves !

@marcusseidel6824 Год назад

OMG a huge collection... you will have your own private Chelsea Flower Show at your wedding. May slugs and snails stay far away from plants. Hopefully there will be no drought issues as well.

@rachelcatchpole Год назад

Of out to pinch out my Dahlias. New to growing them this year after seeing yours

@jardin-du-696 Год назад

Wonderful garden! ❤❤❤

@dn744 Год назад

Looking amazing 😊

@Mahia965 Год назад

Wow. I just bought some fox gloves seeds. Your flowers are so amazing. You've done so well!! Not surprising, but so nice to see.

@johnnylucas1929 Год назад

Garden looks very beautiful.

@loganwhyte720 Год назад

Hi Katrina. I love watching your videos. I stumbled upon them by accident , looking for growing potatoes in containers . I confess i love an English garden . When your flowers are in bloom your alotment looks magnificent. Just wondered how big an area it is ? Good luck with everything from New Zealand.

@jasminelouisefarrall Год назад

Beautiful 🍃🌸🍃

@rossmail5924 Год назад

Beautiful! With your long straight stick, you could put some permanent marks on it as measured intervals for different plant spacings. Use different colours, on different sides of the stick to incorporate as many variables as possible.

@eraramasamy3104 Год назад

Such a lovely video as always Katrina! Just wanted to share a thought, is it possible to spray paint the dried allium seed heads for your wedding?

@itsmewende Год назад

Look forward seeing everything come July/Aug. My mom would use her tools too for measurements, something I started as well. Lastly, as lovely as the allotment is, those foxglove really steal the show, I just love those.

@MessiasMenezes Год назад

Good afternoon. How are you? Nice place you live. Congratulations for the video.

@lindseynoel3522 Год назад

Looking forward to the wedding flower series once they start to bloom. Growing quite a few of the same varieties so hopefully can learn from you along the way, I’ve already picked up quite a lot of tips from this clip. Thank you xxx ❤

@homegrowngarden Год назад

Glad to hear. Thanks for watching! ❤

@FlavourlessLife Год назад

Love everything about your videos. Remember to save those nigella seeds from the pods... very tasty.

@sarahmunoz14 Год назад

Some lovely thing to come.✨ have you not put the rudbeckia in the ground because you don’t have space? A lot of the seedlings you have are cool flowers (rudbeckia, scabiosa, strawflowers) and can go in weeks before last frost. They will take off once they get their feet in soil☺️My apricotta cosmos are blooming now. Gorgeous flower!

@Telthecelt Год назад

Aways nice and a sense of achievement when it's completed but the prospect can be a bit daunting!.With a dodgy knee recently developed I'm having to rethink how to do certain tasks: a little fishing stool has been suggested! Maybe I'll get myself a little red pointy hat, fishing rod and become a feature! Lol! Great to watch and listen to you as always. Thank you.

@ViveClaire Год назад

The spring has been unusually cold across the Atlantic as well. My zinnias have been out for weeks and are just too cold at night to actually put on growth!

@stevendowden2579 Год назад

should look lovely

@aysegayret1188 Год назад

Honesty will flower next year.

But they should be flowering now 😂 I sowed them last year!

@catemc2323 Год назад

🌈💚🍀

@gardeningwithkay Год назад

Yes, my honesty flowers flowered in April/May.. but I do have a patch that did not flower. Very odd.

@christydalgaard Год назад

So exciting to follow and see. Are the flowers only for the buket or also for the party?

@kathleensabourin556 Год назад

I had trouble with germinating my scabious seeds this year too. Did you mean calendula or phlox when you mentioned powdery mildew? You said Art Shades which is the name of one of my phlox varieties. Your grasses are looking amazing! What an awesome variety of flowers you are growing! Your wedding flowers will be beautiful!!

@homegrowngarden Год назад

Calendula 🙂 thanks for watching!

@entomopathogenicfungus904 Год назад

It really is such a shame millions of pounds are spent on flowers that just go in the bin after just a few days! I pick fresh wild flowers from my garden every day! Everybody should grow their own flowers❤❤

@King_of_carrot_flowers Год назад

Honesty flowers in its third year, as do many biennials.

@homegrowngarden Год назад

Biennals flower in their second year.

@davewilkes1657 Год назад

hi Katrina I'm only asking would you be interested in some gardening tools as I dont use anymore so I'm suffering with cancer and liver disease so I would like to give them to some who appreciate them and look after them I've got the full set of the wolf garten tools with all different handles plus forks n spade I got them all just like you to have them

@tobtnosike9433 5 дней назад

I love your crouch knee, you can crouch your legs!

@jackieives4535 Год назад

Thank you for a lovely video again. Does your fiance have a hobby too? Xx

@privateperson5769 Год назад

" Cor - NELL" is how I have heard it repeatedly referred to ☺ Do you just pinch your dahlias once ? Or two or three times as it grows ? TY

@homegrowngarden Год назад

Just once 👍🏻

@belleringr6377 Год назад

Um… 👌

@user-oz4tu6vk7c Год назад

I can't get my Nigellia to germinate, any ideas?

@elyriahayashi7996 Год назад

I noticed your dahlias are planted much higher in the pots than mine. I've been told the tubers should be about 10 cm below the soil. Mine have all come up fine, so is it not as important to bury them or have I been lucky?

@homegrowngarden Год назад

When I plant them in the soil they will be a bit deeper yes. When planting in pots to start them off I like to give them more compost to root into so they don’t go as deep.
