Thank you for putting up the names of the flowers on the screen. I’m more of a visual learner so it helps me learn the plant names. I’m getting lots of ideas for my own garden! ❤
So glad you enjoyed it! We plant what we like.. that's our only 'rule' ;) And we plant very close together, knowing that we can move these perennials if it gets too crowded, etc. Other than that... plant your favorites and enjoy :)
Your perennial borders are beautiful. I love your selection of plants. I agree with loosing the lambs ear and small yellow daisy. You pronounced a perennial incorrectly and it took me a minute to figure it out. Columbine is pronounced AK+WI+LEE+JEE+AH. I want your verbascum the color is so good! Have you seen Thalictrum Dalavii? I like the flower style it’s like dangling lavender cherry blossoms.
Lars and I pronounce our flowers by their names in Danish - not Latin. And write the names for interested viewers to look up themselves. Thank you for the otherwise kind words.
I have 3 of those bell allium, but did NOT spend that much! They have kept coming back year after year & have slowly spread as well. Love those & your huge geum plants. Yes, I also love lupin too!😂 My favorite flower is the peony. Do you have peonies? Don't think I saw any?
SO good to hear that they'll spread. That was what we thought... so, good to know for sure. And yeah... can you imagine that price?! Jeepers. Glad we got them as a gift :) And yes, we have several peonies but they're not quite out just yet... maybe one more week. We love them🥰
Absolutely gorgeous and beautiful!! So professional. I love hoe you started with the homeworthy intro! Spot on! Seriously, you both both, my bad, you three lm sure your son pitched in some, have made that backyard top end!
Glad you liked the intro! Lars even added a hello in his dialect ('mojn'). And you're right, Mahlatsi (our son) does help a lot... altho not always willingly. haha
Is your thalictrum in full sun? I have two different ones and they are in a shaded area of the garden. I would love to move some to the sunnier areas. Do you think that's a good idea? I now have 4 Mai Tai geum and have furnished 2 friends with their own plants. Geums are plants that keep giving and giving. I have the orange one planted with the dark purple ajuga and it's stunning. I have people on the waiting list for when I divide it later this summer lol. Back to your stunning, inspirational garden! 😍
We have an orange one planted next to ajuga, too! TWINS 😇 And what lucky friends you have -- to get mai tai from you. We love it here! As for that thalictrum...we do grow them in full sun. AND at the cemetery garden, it's also in full sun (a whole block of them). So, while the official rules are 'partial shade', we do full sun and they grow really well for us. We vote YES to moving yours ;)
They will hybridize, so any seeds that grow new lupines might be a different color. Otherwise, ours come back the same color each year, yes. We do have to make sure that it's not a 'baby' grown from seed -- as those can be different.
They are perennials... so either they die back and come again in the spring or they are 'evergreen' and sort of 'sleep' during the winter and come again in the spring. We make sure to only have plants and flowers that work well in our climate and/or are native to Denmark.
Another great and informative tour. Your garden is looking gorgeous. Very jealous of your Lupins and delphiniums, we daren't grow these here as they would dissappear overnight 😢. What's the variety of the lovely pale yellow wallflower at 12:27? I love the colour 💛. We would love to visit one of your plant sales, we wouldn't be coming home empty-handed! Cheers guys 😂
We'd give you a huge discount! 🥰 The website says Cheiranthus cheiri... we grew it from seed from here: froebutikken.dk/shop/3-blomsterfroe/649-gyldenlak-white-id1692-0510-froe/ And don't worry about the lupines... we grow enough for everyone over here. haha. We have to work to keep the snails away tho -- on the hunt most evenings ;)
@@perennial-garden Thanks guys 😀 we'd need a private jet to carry it all home 🤣. Thanks for the link, will see if the UK has any seeds of this one. We've had to start doing slug patrol too for the first time. It's a pain but seems to be paying off. Have a great week 😀 💜❤️
Your garden is gorgeous, as always and your neighbors are extremely lucky for all the goodies you give them and all the expert advice you share with them, I'm sure. Thanks for sharing!!!!
They do get a lot of free plants, that's for sure :) (even the neighbor over the fence who lets their wild strawberries crawl thru and invade our garden ;) ... but we're on it! ✂
WOW!!! Such a gorgeous garden!!! Chapeau!!! And where did you get that paste for the greenhouse? I'm desperately in need of that for my greenhouse too! My poor ranunculus get grilled ;) Greetings from Hejsager Strand! 🤗💖🌻
Thank you for watching :) We got that 'paint' at Silvan: www.silvan.dk/skyggepasta-t-drivhus?id=7390-5120741&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjLGyBhCYARIsAPqTz1_-d1qmxoZyNv1JkiEGZvZNM-RVpOGnGQA2VDuBOwO6G0P9xJOg3_gaAv_HEALw_wcB it's called Vitavia, Skyggepasta til drivhus It won't last forever, but we'll repaint if it ever rains again! haha
@@perennial-garden Thank you so much!!! That will be such a great help!! My flower field seems to be more and more like the desert of Gobi ... just that my loamy soil becomes more and more like concrete .... I have to water it and afterwards mulch it heavily! Because of the early warmth I was too late for that ... and I didn't think that it would go that fast, because in winter I was drowning in all that mud, when it was raining so much ;) Happy gardening you both 🤗🌻🌼🌸
@@uteberg4781 We were drowning this winter, too! And now... praying for rain. hahaha. ALTHO... it was a beautiful Pinse, so we've been very happy in the sunshine. Happy gardening to you, too! Hope your Silvan has the paint :)
@@perennial-garden Thank you!! Did you see the lupins at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2024 (it's online at R.A.Javier)? The orange tone was awesome!! Sunny week to you!! 🤗
15.10 Absolutely stunning! I have never seen them before. 17.38 Oh my God! 20.24 Dodecatheon means the 12 Gods , the Olymbian gods in greek mythology. Ouaw!
Hi guys 👋 Wow-what a difference in the weather(I live in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦) & we’ve had a lot of rain. Your beautiful garden is already blooming!!! So jealous, my alliums are just beginning right now
Yeah I have so much in may also I'm in Pennsylvania and I have 30 gardens at memorial Park in New Kensington PA and zone 6B and it's just beautiful out there I just I love it I've been doing it 20 years out there all flowers I got a few fruit trees but other than that it's beautiful I love walking you guys a show talk to you later thank you bye
Interesting how different climate impacts plants in the garden. My wisteria is only just in bud but my lupine are fully in flower. Your garden is lovely. I love the cottage garden look
That is interesting! Our wisteria is always one of the first to come (and go). While our lupines are early this year... they usually bloom in mid June. This warm weather and sunshine has sped everything up.
Hi Boys, great garden tour, enjoyed walking with you and seeing your lovely blooms! The saxifrage flower profusely for you and the Geum is soo beautiful and full of blooms! Do you fertilise your garden regularly?
🥰Thank you for watching! We fertilise twice a year with chicken manure. Once in the early spring and once in the late autumn. We also use compost periodically (because we have a small compost bin and need to get rid of it often.).
We do have a lot of them! They're great this time of year, too. And the foliage hides things like allium leaves, etc. Thanks so much for watching our video.
Do you ever get rabbits in your garden? I don't trust any rabbits and have to use wire cages around my plants. They bite off plants or chew and eat plants. Excellent tour of the gardens. Love that you post the name of the plants.
7 in the morning, birdsong and sunlight, beautiful flowers in the garden. This is a truly inspiring and wonderful garden. Thank you for introducing various flowers. The conversation between the two was also good.
Oh my a Eucalyptus 🙌🥰 Our Koalas Love them 🇦🇺🐨 all the plants when they are fully grown wow they will pop so many types can’t wait to see all in bloom and matured thank You From The Land Down Under 🇦🇺🙌🦘🌱👒🐝
Hi guys, it's lovely to see your garden again, it's so beautiful. I was interested that you, Lars, collected seeds from Geum Mai Tai and I wanted to ask about that. I bought seeds of Mai Tai from a seller on the internet and I got several different peach coloured one with dark stems but also some pale lemon ones. So is Mai Tai a hybrid from two different parents and the seeds don't come true but you get some interesting colours?
Mai Tai is a part of the 'cocktail' series. It includes Mai Tai (peach/apricot colored), Banana Daiquiri (yellow) and Cosmopolitan (creamy pinkish). So it sounds like the seeds you got had a few of the yellow ones in it. Generally, geums do not always come true from seed ... meaning that they will not look like the parent plant. I divide mine (geums love that!) in the spring and autumn to make sure that I get a copy of the parent plant.
Yeah. I wish to goodness we knew what type -- we picked it up at the supermarket years ago. Long story short... it's doing well planted in the ground :)
That one came with the garden when we first moved in in 2018. We moved it to its current spot, but we sadly have no clue what its name is. We’d love to know tho!
@@perennial-garden I wish I could stop by for all the cuttings and seeds, except I live in California☺. BTW, how can I purchase some seeds from you guys?
@@davannhuynh4279 Oh but California! Never been... but I can imagine that it's beautiful there -- and lots of variations from north to south. We don't ship seeds, etc anywhere but here in Denmark -- customs is a nightmare if you leave the country. And for good reason, I'm sure :)
Yay, this is such a lovely garden 😍 I discovered your channel just yesterday, I don"t know why so late, it"s amazing and it looks like a painting 😊 I have a plea - do you know what"s the name of the dark purple geranium around minute 23 of the video? It"s shown on the left hand side close to alliums? I love it! Thank you very much for showing your beautiful garden and your love for it, Genlemen ❤😊🌸
Our weather is all over the place too but I'm happy to have the really sunny days. It has made all the difference to my seedlings which I thought were never going to grow. They germinated fine but seemed to sit still for ages. I have a lot of the same plants but yours are way ahead of mine. Your garden looks amazing and you colour coordinate really well. Enjoy the sunshine!
It's been the exceptionally warm weather that has pushed our garden so far ahead for this time of year -- we're at least 2 weeks ahead of last year. Not sure what will happen if it doesn't rain soon tho... but, we'll enjoy it all no matter what happens :) So glad your seeds germinated finally! We know how worrying that can be!
@perennial-garden But we had had African dust for days and we couldn't breathe, dusty houses. Today thank God strong wind has pushed the dust away and we have a blue sky.
Do you know the Eucalyptus tree will grow VERY high! We had one. And it grows VERY quickly once in the ground. 😅Ours grew up to about 35ft and the bark also sheds annually. I loved it though. 😉
The view from the house, with the new terrace, additional borders and the black building with hostas and astilbe in front - it is all looking so great already.
Великолепный сад ❤ . Многие растения у меня есть, но многие просто стали открытием . Огромное спасибо за знакомство с потрясающими цветами. Теперь я знаю, что мне ещё не хватает в моей коллекции ❤
Man your hostas look great. Mine are destroyed from slugs. We have many rainy days - and while they are great for the plants - the slugs are happy as well and diner in my flowerbeds. Nothing is safe I feel like - they even knibbel on things they are not supposed to like. I love your garden and the changes you made. It looks great! Greetings from Germany 🐛
Those slugs are such a pain. We know them too well! It's snails for us.. but thankfully, not as many this year. Not sure why... maybe it's just years of collecting them at night and removing them. Hope your other flowers come in and make you forget about the hostas :). Greetings from Denmark!
@@perennial-garden I hope the sun comes back to Germany and the slugs go away (far away on holiday 😅). It´s very wet - just what they love. In April it was much dryer and I had no isues with them. Well that´s nature. Have a great day!
@@Joy-zp5lv That's it! It's finally rained here after a good 2.5 weeks without it. That's a long long time for here. Now, the rain is back... so let's see if the slugs come with it. arghhhh
That wall... We like it all crumbly and (safely) falling apart, too. But my father-in-law insisted that we repair it when we first moved in... thankfully, it's slowly crumbling and falling apart again. haha. I prefer that look, too.
@@PlasBachGarden 🤣 We're safe all summer as the wisteria will hide it from him when he visits. I need to just drape a blanket over it when he visits in the winter ;)
