TODAY'S VIDEO
I hope you have been enjoying our series on shade. Today is design #2 & 3. I will take you through the designs step by step. One is the front of a house and one is in the back of a house. The design software I used is called PRO Landscape. It is a professional software program that I used when I was a landscaper. I am on the hunt for a good homeowner app or software for all of you, so hopefully I can find one for you. I hope you are inspired by today's design! If you have not seen the first 5 videos on shade perennials combos, shade conifers, shade flowering shrubs and shade perennials, and shade design #1, please feel free to check them out!

Michelle, you are so fun and full of energy! Love your designs and frank discussion about what works and what doesn't. Shade garden ideas are great. So few channels discuss the challenges and opportunities with shade gardening. Would like to see shows devoted to specific exposures (Northern, Eastern, Southern, Western) since each has unique challenges depending on wind, sun, & space.

I watched your video of your 30 ft section in front of your woods. I would suggest a wandering path cutting through it with a destination of a curved concrete bench somewhere back in the woods. The path could re-emerge farther down your property line. It's going to be so pretty!

Another great video! These design videos are super helpful. Although there are a bazillion gardening videos on RU-vid what I think makes yours stand out is the detail around how you select plants and then seeing how the design will look at maturity. Keep them coming!!! A potential topic for the future 27:06 is landscape lighting. Also how you approach irrigation. Love your channel 💜

@edanaestenes9656 4 месяца назад

I live on the edge of a woods. The deer came up on my small front porch. They ate all the plants out of my planters that I made, and they ate the plants out of the railing planters. I put a bamboo pole thru the railings to block the stairs. They squeezed under the pole, came up three stairs and finished it off. Ugh !!! Then on a berm I did at the edge of the lawn, they pulled out and threw the deer resistant plants all over the place. They did sample the plants first, then pulled them out and threw them everywhere. This year I am doing wooden stakes with fishing line.

Would love ideas for shade with a high water table. No standing water but about 2 feet down I hit some wet soil and sometimes get water when I’ve dug a hole. I lost a hedge of lilacs here after 18 years. I think from lilac bores. Need hedge to block neighbors a minimum of 7ft tall. I am a gardener so don’t mind some maintenance. Area gets some late morning sun. Area gets shaded 2 large silver maples. I have lost many huechera in this area. Maybe to damp. My astilbe do not do well either did my clethera. My seven sons tree & Annabelle hydrangea do great. Bed is about 12 ft wide by 40 ft long. No deer here. The whole bed is about 100 feet long. But the back half of it has a river birch and bald cypress & a lot of hostas, which do great.

@lm8006 4 месяца назад

I’m a new subscriber. Love your energy! These designs are beautiful. I hope we get to see finished install of both. I’m a huge fan of Veronica…but I thought they were more sun loving (?) at least in my zone 6b, MA. Rather than a full shear, I tend to snip off just the spent blossoms & they push out blooms almost all season.

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

I have had great luck with them in morning sun and dappled shade. They are not a full shade plants though.

I wish you lived in northern California. We have a Christmas tree farm so it's almost entirely shade and would be perfect for the woodland theme you are looking for and I really struggle with what to plant.

@hemigirl777 4 месяца назад

Hi Michelle!! I love your videos!! I am in Kannapolis, North Carolina and have a 1 acre woodland garden. Most of my difficulties have come from deer pressure and most of the damage has occurred as a result of the deer rutting on my newly planted cedar trees. They have also eaten lots of plants so I have had to relocate 7 camellias, 2 rhododendrons, 2 mahonias, and several hostas to another part of the garden which is fenced in. Any tips and tricks you could give us would be helpful. Thanks, and happy gardening!

@PAS7gardens 4 месяца назад

I love your plans! Just beautiful! Question: I've wanted a weeping blue spruce for so long but didn't think I had enough sunlight for it. Just how much sun do you think the spruce actually will need?

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

I am going to pull it out into the area that gets that strip of afternoon sun...it is probably more like 2 hours. But it also gets filtered sun through the tree. I think it will be ok

@ritasicari7518 4 месяца назад

Will the blue spruce maintain its blue color in that much shade? Both designs are fantastic.

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

Well I am hoping it will. It is a tiny risk...I think it is more like 2 hours of sun if I pull it out far enough and a lot of dappled sun through the tree. We shall see.....and if I see it not maintaining blue, I have plenty of gardens to move it too and I can get some kind of hemlock to put there.

@noracomeau2986 2 месяца назад

I'm so glad that I found your channel, and I love your designs. Im a bit confused with some of the plants you used for shade in todays video, though. I am also in Zone 5, northern Indiana, & I thought the conifers you used require full sun? Also, we have serious disease issues with Colorado Blue Spruces, & I cringe a little when you use them in your designs.

@gardeningTLC 2 месяца назад

Have not had an issue here

@BronwenSandor 4 месяца назад

Great video! I may do something similar for in front of my parent’s full shade bed. Question: you didn’t mention how these plants are watered. is it just rainwater? Is there drip irrigation, or how frequently would you need to take a hose/sprinkler to it?

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

No they don't have irrigation. Plants need 1-2 inches of water a week

@AlvinCrown-yx5en 23 дня назад

Love your videos and suggestions. Your designs are beautiful!! You have encyclopedic knowledge of plants. We have a 50x30 front lawn that is boring and has minimal curb appeal. Our backyard is a 30x70 lawn. My question is simply where to begin? We are thinking of a island bed for the front and cottage garden for the back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

@gardeningTLC 23 дня назад

There are videos on all those ideas...for me I started where I see the most and went out from there. I add every year. My gardens have been growing over the last 6 years.

I really dislike the shrubs I inherited from the previous home owner as they are all hugely overgrown boxwood and laurel, forming a 6' tall hedge. I hired someone to trim them but the hedge is still 4' tall after the trimming. It will be very costly to remove and replace them all. Besides, my husband wants to keep them, saying they are sturdy. Indeed, they were unscathed by the 2021 severe winter while many of my neighbors lost all their shrubs. I am hoping to tear up some grass and extend the shrub bed out by 3' and plant some small shade-loving perennials in front of the existing shrubs. I wonder if it will work.

@gardeningTLC 4 месяца назад

@whaleback1 Месяц назад

Michell. The blue color of the Veronica you used in this video is gorgeous. I have two questions. 1) Which grower's Royal Candles did you buy? I can't find it on Proven Winner's website. Instead, I found Magic Show Wizard of Ahhz. However, buyer reviews say its color is violet rather than blue. 2) What sun conditions does Royal Candles require? I live in zone 8A and my yard is in the shade before noon and after 5:30pm. I believe this means my it has 'partial sun'. Is it true that for flowering plants that 'do best in full sun but can tolerate some shade', I may not get the best flower colors? Thanks.

@gardeningTLC Месяц назад

Royal candles veronica is not a proven winners. And noon to 5:30 is hot hot sun....veronica might not do well there.....I would try 1 and see 1st
