- (with subtitles) Gardens by Colleen is a manicured woodland garden, the parklike garden is filled with garden art and rare plants, a case study for using dry shade plants. I met Colleen at her plant sale, and the wealth I saw left me in awe. Her wealth transcended material possessions, the garden becomes a vessel of her knowledge and passion, which she generously shares with fellow garden lovers.

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.
Oh She's a real garden fairy. Such a gem.
I was tearfully overjoyed with the beauty of your garden. Thank you Colleen for your gracious hospitality to journey in your garden. Thank you Jay, that was the next best thing to being there.
You are so welcome!
It feels like we're going on a nature walk through the woodlands with calm cool shade, tall trees, and lush plants. And yet it is in a regular neighborhood. So beautiful!
WOW, I am speechless! Colleen’s garden is absolutely beautiful! I would love to have a garden like that, with beautiful paths, fountains… every detail is so beautiful, the decor, the brick wall, the variety of plants, sitting areas, I mean… I LOVE EVERY SINGLE BIT OF THIS GARDEN! Thank you so much Colleen and Jay for sharing this beauty. For sure one of my favorite gardens!
Our pleasure!
Same sentiments
This is by far the best garden tour you've taken. Colleen is truly gifted with her garden skills. Every corner was spectacular. I wish you gave her more time to speak and tell us about her garden. Her garden decor was also so impressive and cheerful! Such a labor of love!!! Thank you Jay for sharing this with us. And Colleen thank you for the honor of walking in your garden!! I've watched it 3 times already.
Thanks for the feedback! Cheers!
Jay and Colleen, thank you for taking me on a spectacular tour. I would love to see Colleen’s garden in EVERY season, Her knowledge and love of each plant is impressive. I have watched this over and over and enjoyed it more each time. BEAUTIFUL!

What a labor of love! Thank you for this fantastic garden tour.
One can certainly see the influence of Fergus Garrett in the unique way Colleen combines plants. Truly a master class of a garden.
Jay, you are such a gracious Guest! I Love the involvement and presentation! Stunning, Thank you, Coleen!
It's our pleasure!
I would love to see her garden in the spring
A relaxing video set in a beautiful setting

Beautiful! Such a labor of Love.
❤ This garden! Thank you so much for sharing. Colleen is a wonderful gardener.
WOW!!!
Truly a paradise!!!
Well done, Colleen!! 🌺🌼🌸
Gorgeous! Thank you for walking us through this garden.
A gorgeous well-kept garden, very beautiful. Thank you for the beauty!
Thank you for showing this beautiful woodland garden! It showcases her skill, passion and great eye for plant combinations.
Beautiful, her passion and joy shows.
What a lovely lady Colleen is . Thank you for her hospitality! 💕
Love from sunny Florida ❤☀️
I think she has one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve seen. Love your channel too. Thanks for showing us all these gardens, wonderful.
The front area closest to the street is a parkway. Beautiful and thoughtful layout - kudos to Colleen!
This is fantastic, what a great idea for a channel and such a beautifully made video, subbed and thank you for showing us this!
Delightful and soothing to your eyes as you travel around her many gardens. So sweet ❤
Truly breathtaking! I could only aspire to have something half as beautiful! ❤
Absolutely beautiful. I would never want to go inside. Thank you both for sharing.
So beautiful and serene! Your own private sanctuary. Love it! Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Two good souls walk a splendid path
What a wonderful garden tour. I took lots of notes. Thank you.
I'm in Love...what a BEAUTIFUL GARDEN🌹🥀🌺🌻🌷⚘🌱🌲🌳🌴🌵🌾🍂🍃🥀
When money can buy good taste. Simply amazing.
How does she do this all on her own? Does she have help? I am amazed and inspired. I live in Central NY, near Utica. About 4 hours from Colleen. I’ll certainly be watching this a second time with pen and paper in hand.
Haha! That's exactly what I did...and my thoughts too...and I live in the UK!
Me too! Pen and paper in hand.
I am just totally blown away at the beauty of this garden !!!!!!!! STUNNING ❤
What a beautiful and peaceful garden. You can tell she love her plants. Oaks are easy to start with acorns. Here on the California coast they are evergreen and it’s a daily job with all the oak leaves. Happy gardening from the central coast of California 🌻💚
Just lovely. What a dream! I will be turning back to this garden many times as I work on creating my own.
Thank you both.
What a beautiful garden and what a lovely lady. How wonderful that she got to study at Great Dixter with Fergus Garrett, it shows in her garden. Stunning. Thank you.
I absolutely loved Colleen’s garden, she is a woman after my own heart as I have to propagate EVERYTHING 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻😂☺️🥰
What a beautiful garden. Such a sweet gardener with a huge passion. It's an inspiration. I'm a horticulturalist and deal with indoor and outdoor plants everyday. Sometimes I forget how amazing plants are and to enjoy them. Thank you for sharing these wonderful gardens that remind me to slow down and see the plants for the miracles that they are. ❤
What a lovely message! Thank you.
gorgeous oh my GOSH. Thank you for sharing!
Wow!!! What a beautiful garden! I know how much work this takes! You should be so proud!!!
simply gorgeous! she is so creative and really listens to the plants and where they want to grow. Some of her combinations are amazing!!
Magnificent garden Colleen. It's just beautiful !!! The effort you must put in would be enormous. Labor of love and passion is seen throughout your garden. What a pleasure it was to watch. THANK YOU
Ask Colleen where she got her girl statue at 1:09 please. I absolutely love it! Her gardens are beautiful, thank you for sharing!
Search ‘La Brezza’, the statue is also known as "The Good Fairy".
@@WhispersInTheGarden Thank you!
A beautiful place. But how do you get everything watered? That’s a big problem where I live.
What a beautiful garden, so well tended. Hearing Colleen share such knowledge in her soft spoken voice is an incredible joy. She reminds me of some of the passionate gardeners who so loved their gardens, featured on Erica Glasener’s show “A Gardener’s Diary” from years ago. Such a lovely host. This is an outstanding tour, Jay. Love the longer walk and so worth the wait.
What a compliment, thanks Peggy!
This garden is certainly magnificent and obviously one of great passion and hard work. I enjoyed the tour immensely.
Oh my goodness, Colleen, your garden is amazing! I’m going back to watch this again!
This was a delight filled tour of a magnificent diverse magical garden. I was mesmerized so I must watch it again to write down the names of some plants that caught my eye that I might incorporate into my dry shade garden areas. Colleen teaches in such an easy way and Jay your observations and plant knowledge make for excellent teaching videos. Thank you both for sharing I’m blessed to have seen it.
I so love this! Beautiful, magical work, Colleen! To the video creator: your closing made cry. Thank you for sharing and inspiring me!❤
Such a compliment, thank you for your message!
What a magnificent garden! Thank you Colleen and Jay for the beautiful tour and education! I am new to gardening so I am taking notes!
Thanks for visiting!
Colleens garden is amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Collen and Jay, There really aren't many words to describe this garden. The title of this video about sums it up. I felt like I was in a botanical gardens! New Subscriber here and thank you for this channel ~ Bravo to both of you!
Thank you, such a compliment!
Love the water fountain with the birds.
Jay, your videos are just so well done, informative and beautiful.
Thank you so much for your hard work and the sharing of your knowledge.
Colleens garden is truly a master peace. I would treasure a stroll thru it, with a big thick notebook!!
Thanks again, see you next week.
Brenda🇨🇦
It's my pleasure!
Jay, thank you for your work. Your gift of sharing the gardens you visit is a blessing. Colleen is as beautiful as her garden! I am awed and amazed! Thank you both for a delightful tour! ❤
Our pleasure!
My favorite video, Jay❤️. Thank you for sharing your garden, Colleen 🙏🌷
I love the Heliopolis! I just discovered them two years ago and am so thrilled with their beautiful flowers! I noticed how Colleen said three times how much she thought of them. The garden is a masterpiece! The brick house backdrop reinforces nature and the earth tones reminds us that the soil there is rich in minerals. You are blessed to share your passion with the locals opening up your garden for the plant sale. I enjoyed my years in the garden club and getting those hardy plants from fellow gardeners. The hellebore were coveted and very difficult to purchase as they were the first to be grabbed up. What a great role model you are for the young people starting out in the business. I bet you could get a high school kid to help out, they could earn some hours for college.
Thanks for your lovely message!
Thank you and subscribed. Enjoyed every minute.
What a treat to walk with you and her in this magnificent garden! She has so much knowledge about plants and her love of gardening is contagious. Thank you!
WOW! I have seen the flower garden along this road is very beautiful.
These two complement each other in their narrative style, never interrupting, but providing solid foundational info on plant identification, size, sun & moisture needs - spectacular, well done😂❤!!
It is our pleasure, thank you!
Wow, what a gorgeous garden! Colleen is truly talented and in love with plants which shows throughout her property. I love to see someone garden like this, the beds full to overflowing and a rich mix of layers and colors and textures. Thank you Jay for a delightful tour to watch while it is snowing outside on an April day.
This garden is magnificent! Thank you for sharing.
I am just so in love with your flowers in your garden. A very large variety that blends together ❤😊😊😊❤
Breathtaking and oh so soothing. Bravo to Colleen for creating a slice of heaven and thank you for sharing it with the world!
Heaven on earth. One of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever seen.❤
I agree!
Thank you for sharing this amazing garden! You can hear Colleen’s passion for her plants every time she speaks.
Thank you Ted, I truly enjoyed walking around Colleen’s garden. I live in a zone 4 so seeing the different flowers I have only been able to dream about, was wonderful.
Breathtakingly Beautiful!
Will definitely be watching again.
🌿💚🍃

This has to be my most favorite garden of all. An absolute dream and work of art. And great camera work. I was never left feeling I missed out on anything. Lovely.
I've really been enjoying your channel. You bring us beautiful gardens and you ask great questions. Very informative.
Thank you, your message made my day!
Lovely! Ownership pride.
Greetings from Ireland, Great video and your gardens are the bees knees. How you remember all the names of your plants is impressive I'm lucky if I remember my name half of the time.
Colleen garden is stunning I have seen her garden in winter video by jay! it’s beautiful as well. I am so in love with her girl statue in the corner!
Beautiful, a lot of passion went into this garden and she knows all the plants intimately....nice work.
Wow! Beautiful and so serene. I wish I were a fairy. I would choose her gardens to live in.
What an incredible garden and gardener! Every area is so intentional. I was swooning for that back patio with the iron table and chairs and umbrella!!!! What a tranquil space for morning coffee. The white columns with the brick and window panes is pure charm. I would love to spend the day gardening in this beautiful space. This is definitly her passion. Thank you for this inspiration. Before I close... where did she find the amazing garden art on the front porch with the birds and rabbit? I also noticed one on the side yard with a bird ad fish. They are gorgeous and unique!
I hope to feature Colleen's garden for an update and hopefully to have more information. Keep an eye!
Love ur garden

It's reminiscent of the passionate gardeners showcased on Erica Glasener's show "A Gardener's Diary" from years back-a true testament to her hosting skills. Jay, you've truly outdone yourself with this extraordinary tour. The longer walk was definitely worth the anticipation. It feels like a slice of heaven on earth, one of the most breathtakingly beautiful gardens I've ever laid eyes on. I'm already planning to watch this tour again-it's simply mesmerizing.
