I agree. This is absolutely perfect. I never miss watching this channel. Always something different. And we can see how this garden has grown and developed thru the years. I remember how exciting it was when the greenhouse went up☺️…and putting in the boxes. Every corner of this garden has been “beautified” with the DaintyDiaries touch🥰

Your garden minded you while you were away. Everything is beautiful. It is always a good day when the green house windows are sparkling clean. Just a little mow around your nature garden. I have some of those water spikes same results. I added a thin film of plastic wrap and just punched 1 or 2 small holes then screwed the top on. Only lets out a small amount now.

Bees LOVE clover in your wild lawn patch. I do the same in my garden.. Lovely volg😊. Ps. When you go near a bee hive🐝, the bees will not sting if you get close, as long as you do not stand in front of/block their flight path in and out of the hive entrance/exit.

The aquilegia plants do tend to get mildewy anyway. I always cut them low to the ground when they've finished flowering and they just pop back up with new foliage that keep the clump looking much tidier. I also chop back the fennel.

Your garden is dreamy! I live in Athens and i have a balcony so all my plants are in pots.Before i had a watering system installed i used to keep the bottles of water or anything with a lid (like the milk bottle you had on the video) and i used to water all my plants very well and then i pinned the lids with sewing needle in 2 or 3 spots to make very small holes and i placed the bottle near the roots. When i came back everything needed watering but no plant ever dyed in the hot Greek summer!🥰(i have plants like hydrangeas, roses that need a lot of water)

You’re right about allowing ventilation in the garden plantings…it’s also good to thin out within trees and bushes to allow sun and air flow to get in nicely.

I recognised the new overalls straight way - they look great! You are certainly a very self disciplined person Catherine and get all these unpleasant jobs done when needed. You keep everything up to a high standard and your home reflects that both inside and out. I love your cottage style and how light and bright it all is but at the same time a feeling of cosiness and warmth. 💐❤️

Wonder if a small sponge lodged in the opening of the bottle after you fill it with water before you attach it to the cone, would slow down the water flow into the soil. Just a thought. Meanwhile, your garden looks like it is thriving. Love the natural space in the front lawn.❤️
