Hello,

@lauradissinger5404 3 года назад

I have neighbors that come to see my yard on their evening walks and it’s such a great feeling to share the beauty of the garden. I often offer plants to neighbors when they get over-grown in my yard. It’s a great way for them to have a piece of the garden they love and for me to know my babies will be taken care of in their new homes. Community feeling definitely runs deep in my little slice of heaven.

Fantastic video Erin! This is what it's all about; neighbors that are actually neighborly! Thanks so much for sharing this. Also great plant selections that are tough and resilient! Have a great weekend.

@GardenObsessions 3 года назад

Love the choice of plants. The goats beard already bloomed for us here. Carnival watermelon Heuchera is going to love the shade there. Always great to have a community that gets involved with the garden.💚💚💚💚💚💚

My Neighbour are my parents so we share ideas and cuttings all the time. Also my friend is down the road so we are always swapping plants. Great idea and it looks great. Sweet people you have next door to you. Xx

i loved this project, my garden is much more visible in the neighborhood and yesterday a neighbor brought me fresh blueberries to thank me for all my work making my outside the fence gardens. It’s so easy to think of these projects for our own enjoyment, or in my case the creative challenge and for the pollinators but it’s so nice to hear that it makes my neighbors happy too!

@lisag6796 3 года назад

It's nice when others notice and take the time & effort to let you how much your garden is enjoyed!!

@songsgardensbyjenniferlynn3242 3 года назад

I like using Lamb’s Ear in dry shade-it doesn’t flower or spread much in the shade, and it’s SO drought tolerant.

@kentaylor3319 3 года назад

Good morning How are you doing today?

@peggyjk 3 года назад

We take care of a couple of beds on our small downtown Main Street with others caring for some as well, quite often we take our extra perennials and plant them in the beds, we get so much satisfaction from this project. 🥰

Love this idea. I have a perfect narrow spot with my neighbor.

@michellejames5953 3 года назад

It’s great that your neighbors actually planted them along with you and that will usually make them feel more invested to help take care of them as they get going. I wish I was your neighbor! 😁

@kbell8889 3 года назад

Good morning K Bell, How are you doing today?

@klcpca 3 года назад

You're so lucky to have great neighbors... I wanted to make a joint garden between us and our neighbor and she flat refused and ended up cutting down 2 large beautiful trees and erecting a 6 foot privacy fence!!! Geeee... was it something I said??? Can't wait to see the garden next year when it's filled in ....

@kmarch6630 3 года назад

What a pretty area! It looks so cool and shady. I can't wait to watch it grow in.

@HowsItGrowing 3 года назад

Wish you were my neighbor, Erin. On the side that doesn’t have the Houttuynia chameleon ivy. 😆 what a great project bringing the neighborhood together. Love it! You look really pretty, too!

@elsagrace3893 2 года назад

Your house is stunning! I don’t have a shared space but I do share a love of gardening with 2 neighbors. It’s lovely to sit and visit outside in each other’s gardens.

@nicolestroh1581 3 года назад

I haven’t even watched this yet and I cannot express how excited I am. I have tons of dry shade at my house and have struggled to find the right plants. So thank you for reading my mind. 😊

@deechiodo6738 3 года назад

Lucky you and lucky neighbors to have each other! I used to live in a wonderful "Leave it to Beaver" neighborhood where everyone knew and helped each other. Unfortunately those people have all died off and now no one talks to anyone or even knows their names! Lots of people who move in for six months, make trouble and a mess and move out! Sorry to say my current best neighbor is the high privacy fence I put around my entire property! I LOVE to have a neighbor like you!

@christinepops5100 3 года назад

It already looks great but I can't wait for the spring update!

@susanhorn3910 3 года назад

I love your beautiful house, and I think that it’s great to garden with your neighbors! I abhor people that try to outdo their neighbors’ gardens. Can’t we all just enjoy what everyone else is doing in the neighborhood? A little grace and peace, please. ☺️🌿

@karentemple5619 3 года назад

How nice to work together. Having good neighbors that share your interests is priceless. The plants are going to be beautiful without worrying about night visitors enjoying the buffet. Ours have been horrible this year😵 Thank you for sharing this project!!

@christinahaftmann8837 3 года назад

This was very touching and a good antidote for our times. It was especially almost amusing to see non-gardeners contemplating the growth of plants! Can't wait to see both the growth of this area and the growth of your neighbors understanding. 🌲💐💃🌻💃🌲

Plants that thrive in shade were introduced. It is a plant that lives in the shade but should not be wet. It's a bit tricky.Thank you for sharing.

What an awesome project. Good in all aspects.

@Brodmann312 3 года назад

I just finished digging out all of our Blue Zinger here in central IL. My front garden is dry shade with clay soil. They looked great the first year, then all heck broke loose. In three years it completely overtook a heavily planted garden. After ripping a bunch out a few times a year, and it still spreading out of control, it was clearly time to go. BZ could be a wonderful groundcover for a large area, but definitely not at my house.

@rvpandamonium 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing... a lot of great info! I love the shared space idea.

@leslieshields280 3 года назад

would you be willing to share a link to your source of plugs.- especially those who sell retail? BTW have been watching different gardeners and find that you have a wonderful presentation - full of knowledge and not repetitive.

@amydeeds6248 3 года назад

Thanks for all the great plant ideas for dry shade! Our neighborhood has big pines at the entrance that we want to plant under and there is no irrigation. Our beautification committee could keep them watered the first year. Great video 😊

Hello Susan. How are you doing today?

@ineseduka1 3 года назад

I actually planted this carex last spring in a sunny border with only occasional supplemental watering. So far this year I have had to weed it from the rest of the border already twice. At this rate I expect to have to do it in the autumn as well. Luckily a friend of mine was looking for such an active (not to say aggressive) ground cover, so I'll split mine and hope this will slow then down a bit. I don't want to get rid of them completely because they have the perfect height for the front of the border and they have a very beautiful blue colour.

@nicoledyehouse966 3 года назад

I bought my 1 acre property in Cincinnati OH a few years ago with most of it pretty much original woodland. The previous owner planted lambium and it has completely overwhelmed an enormous portion of the ground and choked out native species like wild poppy and sweet woodruff with its eye to consume it all at the rate it is spreading. How do you know if the variety of lambium you chose wont become an absolute beast?
