I really enjoyed this. The only thing that would make it better would be actual photos of the finished projects.

@mytigereyez 3 месяца назад

I was just going to comment the same, and since it's been 3 and 6 years, would love to see how they look now!

@TheArtisticGardener777 4 месяца назад

Oh I love this!❤. Seeing the blank slate, my mind starts thinking, and of course something immediately pops in my mind…but I want to see what you come up with. Well as soon as that fountain popped up, I said yes! My first thought was water. I actually saw a pond and waterfall there. I could just imagine the sound of water in that “cove”. But of course most people are leery of ponds thinking they’re high maintenance. And yes, there are some maintenance requirements, but not as much as people think. And NOTHING is zero maintenance!😊. But a fountain is just perfect. And, of course, plants!❤. Love Karl foerster!😊

I need garden bed inspiration and have spent this entire week trying to figure out what I can do in my front beds and studying each plant and shrub, and trying to decide what I'm going to use!

Thank you so much for this video. I have a very similar flower bed that faces Northeast in my zone 5 garden. For 4 years I have had such a hard time figuring out what to put here, and now my wheels are turning. Fortunately I have some good bones with evergreens and a couple of trees. Now to get started on everything else!

@judyanderson8782 4 месяца назад

Both pockets looks beautiful. Thanks. I wish you had a magic bullet for weeds besides the three you mentioned. I see some gardeners plant numerous plants in their beds and so weeds can't grow, they say. I don't think that's my answer cause I'm pulling out weeds from the middle of some plants. I didn't count, but I bet I've pulled many thousands of weeds this spring. Love your videos.

@Bandaid17 4 месяца назад

I love your channel. I subscribed immediately. You fill a gap missing from some of the other gardening channels and it’s so refreshing to see you so enthusiastic about your craft. A great plantswoman. So many great ideas for (regular joe) homeowners. Could you add (in the written description) a comment about sun/shade requirements? Most times you do mention it but not always. Also seeing as it’s a concern, a comment about its pollinator use (if applicable). I’m sure your channel will become a great success. (Master Gardener NEPA now zone 6)

@michellemacumber2690 4 месяца назад

Both pocket gardens are beautiful, though I especially like the first one…maybe because it seemed to have be more deer resistant options. I would love to hear ideas for similar pockets. My own challenging pocket is on the northwest corner of the house.

Blue star juniper struggles for me, not dead but I've had it for about a year and it's not looking fantastic. I have it by a peach tree so it gets morning sun & nice loamy soil so not sure what the problem is/was. We did have pretty hard drought last year but I did give it supplemental water. The mugo pine I have is a absolute tank though, pristine foliage in absolute full sun.

Great video! Wished I had seen this before I started working on my "pocket" bed. That being said, I've actually used some of these ideas. After watching this, I may tweak the design a little and move a few things around. Would love to see something similar for a more southern climate, such as zone 7b / 8a.

@pragmatic111 3 месяца назад

@ChristinesBackyardGarden 4 месяца назад

I love both your designs. My pocket bed gets full shade in the morning, and the full hot afternoon sun until sunset. I would love to have mostly perennial flowers, but I don't know what would do well from full shade to full hot afternoon sun. Right now, I just have some dwarf boxwood shrubs in the area. I live in zone 8b, south Georgia. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

I will have hot sun design coming soon

@Jordan-dg8tp 4 месяца назад

I wonder if others would get a rough feedback on my "island" garden bed in my front yard - It faces south, mostly full sun. Roughly 20' long, about 15' wide. To me it hits green, red/white/blue, and a little tan/apricot/yellow for highlights. Back row is Karl Forester, mid back is Denim and lace sage, mid front has lavender (i found a variety that starts with white flowers and then ages to purple in the season) on the edges, pink/white phlox inbtween, with a apricot/pink rose as my centerpiece. In front of that I'm still deciding, but I have reddish painted daisies. It keeps the watering to the edges while keeping the more xeric stuff away from the water.

@dustyflats3832 4 месяца назад

Enjoy watching the designs for ideas, thank you. We have a metal roof and short overhang and snow slides off and would smash plants below. What ideas do you have for such an area? Only thing I can figure is perennials with main island bed away from house.

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

If you can cut back the plants snow is a great insulator.

@dustyflats3832 4 месяца назад

@@gardeningTLC that’s a great point. Would like conifers, but the whole roof of snow is just too heavy and will just use those plants in the sitting area of a fenced in project. I have arbs in there already and we have deer. I think I will make the area between house and project a secret path. So far I have a perennial and hydrangea that are working under that danger area. It’s all difficult to make it look nice with the fence which I still need to design so it doesn’t look like a zoo. We are in the country and far from road but still want it to look nice. Thank you.

@Jordan-dg8tp 4 месяца назад

Also, does Oso Lemon Zest take a long time to break dormancy? I overwintered one in a pot this winter and almost all my stems have blackened and I hope it hasnt died. I haven't seen budding/swelling while most of my stuff has broken so far.

@kaynucklehead1633 4 месяца назад

I just found your channel and like the planning and how the plants are selected. I tried to hear what you called the plant in the container but my hearing 'low sodoma ball' didn't produce the results I was hoping for. Can you provide the name again? I'm trying to see if it would be a perennial in 7a. Thanks Michele!

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

The container is a low sedona bowl. And the annual in it was ageratum
