I have watched many of Johns videos but he is one fellow I would love as a friend just makes me laugh all the time at way he loves his garden plants.I have 5 acres of English gardens I build from farm fields. I listen to John and whip out to buy what he is talking about in borders. Its lovely .Oh there it goes again. Bit of a weed really .Love it classical comedy
Thank you once again - for giving me an informative and enjoying morning - if I win the lottery - My plan will be to have a secret garden like your - where I can just go and wander - ahh to dream.
🙋hi from Scotland hi John thanks for another great vidio very interesting you have a great sense of humor love your plants there amazing take care till next time Anne Scott from Scotland
Respected sir your garden is really amazing and awesome , I enjoyed too much ,all plants are very healthy and happy ,my best wishes with big thumbs up👍🙏
Enjoy your videos so much. It’s so helpful to see the proper names of plants as you discuss each one. I look forward to creating something new in my garden. Thanks for sharing your joy of gardening.
Good to see you, John. Fuschias don't hold up here in Sacramento. Ca zone 9 but my miscanthus thrive. I sure could use some advice on why my Salvia "Hot Lips" never bloomed. Happy Fall!
Once again an absolute pleasure getting to share you garden. PS Down here in the antipodes we pronounce Toetoe as ToyToy, go figure the bloody English language :)
Hi John, I enjoy watching your videos and seeing how much passion you have for the plant kingdom! I have tropaeolum speciosum in my garden which was inherited from the previous owner. I presumed it was a weed and I tried to eradicate it with no luck. I just let it grow one spring and it created such an amazing display while climbing up the acer tree and hinoki cypress. You are right, once established it is hard to get rid of and it grows like a weed so I need keep an eye on it but it is worth the effort!
Hello Mr.John Lord... i love your programme and love your presentation. You are very genuine. Thank you for letting us into your stunning garden. Just one suggestion... if your cameraman could pls show us a closeup of your plants and flowers then that would be wonderful. Thank you very much.
John your videos are my go to for gardening advice. Informative in a fun way. I visited your gardens in August. They were spectacular. But I wish you would sell some of that fabulous perennial yellow sunflower. I really covet that. How do you get at plants in the back of the border. Stepping stones?
I try to leave the borders alone as much as possible in the growing season, I can get into the back with some difficulty if I need to. We can give bits of the perennial sun flowers to people who want them.
I believe it is. I admire it in all his videos when it appears. I just got 3 seedlings of the gold variety. I’m excited to see them grow up next season 🙂
Hello John Lord Enjoyed your walkabout. Particularly interested in the red rose next to the red fuchsia. What is the rose called please? You usually say. Thank you.
Potosi is a major city in Bolivia, and Cerro Potosi means the mountain (cerro) called Potosi. It may be an Italian variety, but the name comes from Bolivia,....I believe.
What is the cultivar of grass next to the fuchsia. I assume it is a Molinia of some sort.. it's really interesting. I think I'd like one if it's hardy usda zone 5 to 6a.
What is the Actea variety…nearly bought one the other day, bu plant labels don’t always show accurately what a plant will be when grown. Love your video as always! Wish I lived in N.Ireland! Could visit… I feel I half know your garden already!
Do you have to dig up and split your Miscanthis varieties every 3 years to avoid an empty center? Cleaning mine by hand of dead leaves does not work. The plants got so huge that after needing help to remove them, my husband now refuses to have grasses in the landscape!
Thanks John- can I ask, why do plants fall over? I presumed in my garden it was due to light but there are a number of plants down the side of a lane that get plenty of light yet are so slanted they're getting in the way of the cars...
Do you know what equivalent planting zone you are in compared to our USA scale? I could never keep Fuschias in the garden over winter here in zone 5 and could not keep them as perennial small shrubs even in zone 7.
