May Garden Tour 

I've found the lungwort splits up really easy when you go to move them. Easy like Hostas. I turned 1 2 year old plant into 5

What an accomplishment!! I hope you are taking time to enjoy your work. It really is beautiful...

Michelle everything looks fantastic!

Great job Michelle. What fun, everything is looking wonderful. Thanks for sharing and good luck over the weekend at the garden fair

🌳🌳Fantastic 🌳🌳

Put a pot with some of those pretty flowers and trailing plants on top of that stump! I put stumps in my flower bed for that purpose! Love them. Your yard is beautiful!

Cats meow pajamas...you crack me up!

Laura’s are Colette climbing roses from David Austin. I just planted 2 of the Generous Gardener climbers on my trellis … stunning blooms too! Love all of your hostas!

A few weeks ago you did a lovely conteiner with willow branches that really appealed to me. As soon as I could Iwent out and bought a bunch and they really elevated my container I added them to. thank you Michelle

Maybe hosta guacamole? Stained glass? No. I think guacamole. Your gardens are beautiful, love your videos Michelle. I'm in MI I sure hope those damn bugs don't come my way. I would FREAK out!

Oh, so much fun! The cottage garden is my favorite I think. And I was along when you planted it up. Looking good, Michelle.

Your garden looks incredible and everything looks so healthy! Your hosta collection is impressive!

Beautiful, educational and inspiring! I can’t wait to try some of these plants in my garden 🪴 THANKS!

Don’t worry about cicadas. They don’t have functional mouthparts, so they won’t damage any plants.

Try "Forever Purple" heuchera (I think it's un-branded) instead of PW Dolce Wildberry. It's an exact dupe for Wildberry and reliably comes back for me. I have tried probably 12 or 15 Wildberry heuchera and lost every one. Every Forever Purple I've planted has returned and thrived.

Michelle You are the best thing on the internet as far as I'm concerned! Of all the years and years of reading and hundreds of hours and hours of watching videos on gardening and landscaping over the years I have learned exactly what I need for my garden from just a FEW of your videos. It helps that you share the same growing zone so I can follow your advice to a T. I am in Glenview, IL north of Chicago. Thanks for taking some of the pressure off of my decisions when you, as a landscape professional, say things like "look at my garden. Nothing's blooming, everything's green and it's the same color green" I don't feel so bad for spending what I feel is a lot of money and then NOT getting 4 seasons of interest right in my garden, lol!! I like in other videos how you show how to put flowers and shrubs together in vignettes and groupings for an entire yard. You bring all the random facts together in one big picture! BTW, impressed with how you talk about what you are going to plant in your clients garden and then YOU are actually the person digging and installing everything!!! Wha?? I thought the designers bring in the work crew for the hard part ;))

With all the varieties now available there must be a coral bells to color match your beautiful weigela and bloom at the same time. :)

I'm jealous. I saw a Lemony Lace Elderberry . I bought 3 a couple of years ago, and they were pretty, then they all turned brown and died, so I gave up. Beautiful garden

Beautiful!! We have 4 David Austin Teasing Georgia climbing roses on our two wood gate arbors (if you need a climbing rose idea). They are humdingers!

I screwed a pot into my tree stump and planted in the pot..gives the garden some height variation.

Love your video, new subscriber🌺🌺🌺

I’m so glad I came across your channel!!! I loved everything! Maybe a blue evergreen of some kind in the first garden you showed?

Michelle, I believe Laura has Colette roses climbing on her arch trellis by the kitchen raised bed garden.

Green Spice heuchera is very hardy and does very well in my 5b.

Yeah that tulip tree will get huge I have some here at the park I know it don't take them long either good luck let's go get huge okay I'm the one with a 3040 New Kensington PA I love watching your show you do a good job okay talk to you later bye

That’s where I’m at with mine

I just found your channel! I've been watching Laura on Garden Answers because her zone is similar to mine (I'm in Eastern Washington just north of her), but I think you're clay soil and zone might be more similar to mine. I've been binge watching and enjoying it!!

I noticed that all green thing this morning when I looked out my window. I think next year will be different because I just added a massive number of catmints to edge my borders. They are plugs but growing fast. Thanks for the tour. I need all the ideas I can get.

I have 2 Lady of Shllot bushes and they can get tall (6 ft) I trim them way back in spring and thru the summer to control them and keep their vase shape. DA also has another Varieit of Lady of Shallot listed as a climber so very confusing. It is a short climber only getting 8 ft tall. Your beds look great!

Your gardens are lovely. My bad knee is keeping me from doing what I would like in my garden this year. Having surgery soon. I hope I’ll be able to garden when I heal.

Wow! Thank you for the garden tour Michelle! Everything looks Beautiful & will only get more glorious thru the season! Look forward to future tours! I think that limey green Hosta with the darker green variegation may be Stained Glass. That is what it reminds me of anyway. Thank you for sharing your hard work & beauty with us! I appreciate it so much. 😊♥️

I appreciate the fact that you use some four pack annuals. I use a few expensive plants but for the most part I buy PW perennials or other name brand and mostly plant the cheaper annuals.

Love your oak-leaf hydgrangea! I've recently bought one but it's still tiny.

Gorgeous

I love garden tours 😊 Everything looks so lush and BEAUTIFUL!! I have been wanting the Mini Me Watermelon Coleus and when I search it on PW they find no matches 😞😢 they sold out last year and I have not been able to get one.. Thank you for sharing your beautiful.

Hi Michelle,love your videos!

You have so many pretty garden areas, it's hard to decide which is best. We've had cicades forover a month now, my husband feeds then to the chickens. The Japenese beetles showed up last week feasting on my cana. Everything is gowing in nicely for you. Love your videos. Have fun at the garden show.

Lady of Shallot - there is both a shrub rose and climber at D. Austin- I went through the same thing! Looks stunning and love your videos as always- thanks for doing them! 😊

You need some white blooms in your hosta garden

Beautiful! I love all the hostas. Are those the solar lights from Lowes in your cottage garden. They look so pretty in the store, but solar lights don't always live up to their potential in real life. How do you like them?

So gorgeous!! What do you use to keep the weeds out of your mulch??

Lady of Shalott rose is sold as shrubs and climbers. You probably bought the wrong ones

How much sun a day does your weiglea get? I haven’t had luck growing them but zone 8 hot and dry. Maybe I gave it too much sun.

What fun - mistake et al.
