Good morning, Eric and Christopher! We are so excited to see some of our plants in your beautiful garden. It was nice to see how thoughtfully you talked about each one of them. We hope you enjoy the new additions!
We are so grateful to be able to add these new trees to the garden. So many different textures and colors that make such a huge impact on the borders. The Wabi Sabi is AMAZING!!! We were lucky to pick up the Tickle Creek when the plants arrived…the leaves are so cool! Thank you thank you!
Omg I don’t know what was cuter- Christopher’s jokes, Eric singing or Eric smelling the “Christmas” tree. I laughed out loud so many times this morning. Thank you, guys!! The evergreens look so good!
The nice calm pace of your videos where we get the full experience with both of yall is part of what I think I love so much. Feels both comforting and thoroughly interesting.
It is all going to be so stunning. You guys are killing it with the roses and the evergreens and the hydrangea room. Geez summer can’t come fast enough.
Really great additions to your beautiful garden! Appreciate how you describe your thought process for placement as it makes such a difference. Love your channel!!
Thank You for the very informative recap ending with the names & growth habits of the plants. You guys are great content creators!! I didn’t have to rewind to get the plant names.
Good morning Eric and Christopher fantastic additions, perfect for your beautiful garden, I adore Iseli Nursery and the specimens they have, always in awe with your garden and both of you, happy gardening for the rest of the week. This is possibly one of the busiest weeks at the Nursery, so busy, so much coming in and the weather here in Northern Va has been lousy, some very hot days and rain, we needed the rain though, no rain in April that counted.
Wonderful ,my two favourite things, conifers and Japanese Maples! When I started my garden it didn't have a single conifer, its now got over 30!, mostly dwarf. The first one I bought was a dwarf blue spruce. Thoroughly enjoyed watching you two plant all those lovely trees.
You always have the most incredible trees and shrubs. So much inspiration! Your Diana larch last year inspired me and although I couldn't find it locally, I found the Horstmanns Recurva and it's all green and budded up this spring and I love it!
I think you should do some judicious pruning on the 'Wabi Sabi' maple. The lower branches need to be removed. If you look at the Iseli picture, you will see that it has been pruned so that the branches are off the ground. Not only will it prevent disease from developing on the leaves, it will give your maple a shape that is in greater contrast to the plants around it. Your garden looks great.
FYI, we have some amazing local NYS tree nurseries that carry species better suited to our growing climate & region. Guernsey's Nursery in Schoharie is one of the oldest & best in NY. Not sure if you've ever been there, but if not, make it a priority! Love your channel!!
Ohhhhh, arborvitae! Deer Candy! It might look like a pencil in a few weeks. I had planted four beautiful ones last year and poof! Pencils in a week. UGH!
@@growformegardening I love arborvitaes. I will try one of those. That is one of the reasons I like your channel because you have deer and rabbits. I love flowers and shrubs, I just don't want to waste money, time, and resources on a smorgasbord for furry friends.
I love the look and idea of adding compost instead of mulch. My local nursery has mushroom compost. Is that what you use or would that be a good choice? Does it stay dark in color all year? How thick of a layer do you lay down? Lastly, is it great for depressing weeds? Thanks so much, love your videos! Have a great day
Honestly we just order in bulk compost. The supplier called it "agricultural compost"...we have lots of farmland in our area. It stays evenly colored and we go pretty thick! No more issues with weeds than other mulch
I love seeing your garden!! I miss my zone 6 garden in Rhode Island. I'm now in zone 8 in Alabama. Boy is this area difficult to garden in. You guys are great.
I live way down south in Texas but I love your wonderful videos. Your gardens areas are spectacular. I can’t even imagine what the inside of your house looks like. Perfection.
All are beautiful additions to your garden beds! It would be difficult to decide which area of your gardens I like best! We always look forward to “the boys” releasing a new video!
Sorry if I missed it, where did you put your Forsythia? You two are my favourite garden channel to follow - thanks for all your videos and info!!! ;) Obsessed with your garden tours
FYI Wood Crates have a trick...the boards at the bottom are quite easily removed and you can actually save the container to be reused by just popping the few bottom boards
They did very kindly share these with us. We are very fortunate to have a great selection at our local nursery. We picked up the Tickle Creek Birch while we were there!
Love your banter! I laughed out loud quite a few times watching. I loved your British gardener remark. Soil in British gardens can be pretty bad especially on a new build. I garden on clay, acidic soil but I'm trying to mulch every year, I think it really makes a difference. xx
I am curious on my some tags have the hardy zone for the low, but what about the upper range? I’m in So Cal with blazing full sun in the backyard, so it’s important for me to be cautious what I plant. I love sooo many of the trees and plants in your yard!
Hi guys. Love all the new additions ❤ I’m mulching with compost this year. Do you think it makes a difference in the soil Composition? I have clay soil in zone 7B
