Thank you so much for taking time to share details on how to maintain plants…so many other influencers have focused on just planting more and more and more…but rarely take the time to provide necessary education in terms of care…planting is the easy part…maintenance and care is a bit harder and essential.
"A little sercy". My sister in law who lives in South Carolina always brings little surprise gifts when she comes to visit me in Florida and says "oh it's just a little sercy" . She is the only person I ever heard use that term, until today!! 😀 As always, enjoyed the video thanks for always keeping it real!!!
First, the flower arrangement is beautiful! Second, this is just one of the things that is great about your channel, you teach us how to care for and prune the plants. Your garden now looks nice and tidy! So pretty!
I just trimmed back my pink salvia, day lilies, daises,, bee balm, knock out roses, Stella Dora’s, even my supertunias the other day when it was 100° and 80% humidity. So I feel your pain but that is what we gardeners do!!
❤ Thank you for sharing the bouquet. I too often do not make those bouquets thinking that I should just leave it outside. You are such a joy to watch and follow!
I learn so much from you! I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the time & energy & sweat 🥵 you put into these videos ❤🤗 I lived briefly in NC close to your area & oh my - that humidity does not play 😳
Thank you for taking the time to explain your toolbelt and tools. Felco 322 and 2's. Thank you for slowing down the pace of what today's project is in your videos. I like how you explain what is expected expected in today's video within the first minute and include information to catch newish viewers up to speed.
I got my hori hori (I think that's how it's spelled) on Amazon. Love that you teach us about cleaning up our plants, what tools to use and where to buy the tools. Thank you!!
I have a love/hate relationship with daylillies. I love them until about now when they are looking rough. Then I question why I have so many. Some varieties look better by this time of the season than other varieties and I am taking out the ones that don't perform as well or don't hold up to the heat in my yard.
Thank you so much!! Because of you and your informative videos, I have the confidence to whack stuff down, move things, try new plants and combinations. I think “What would Jennie do?” (Of course not at the same scale…haha!) My yard has NEVER looked better! North GA 7B. Have a glorious, blessed day!
Thank you for showing us how to take care of cleaning up our plants in this hot weather! Great information! I like that you are honest and show us pretty flowers and sometimes the weeds!!❤
You are absolutely amazing Jenny. Love how that flower bed looks after you went through and trimmed everything up. Your flower arrangement is gorgeous. I have the old timey purple phlox. It's time to give it a haircut. I so want to add some of the newer ones to my garden. May have to make another trip up your way. Have a wonderful week 🪴🤗🪴
Oh that’s what happened to my echinacea! I knew I planted two new ones last year and wondered what happened to them! I did not think of the bunnies! 😂❤️🌸🇨🇦
I enjoy your videos so much! Even though i have gardened for yearsssss i love your advice! And i love daylilies ! They have such beautiful colors i just bought 3 more to put in my gardens!
Good morning! I absolutely love my daylillies! Matter of fact they are the flowers I get the most compliments on. However i don’t have as many flower beds as you, so that may be why I don’t mind cleaning them up about twice a week. They are still blooming like crazy!😊
Love learning from you. The deer are pruning most of my plants for me. I must have a salad bar for them. There is plenty around our house for them to eat. Makes me Sad!
Love Your encouragement on the baby steps to getting things done at this time of the season. YEAP, It sure is a hot 🥵 time this season so far. Time to shop for fall in the A/C after those small chores and up keep before we pass out in this heat. STAY COOL 😎
We had hot, dry conditions last month here in PA. My daylillies got all brown and crispy. I cut them down to 2-3” and they’re coming back now all green and have buds! Since I have a small garden I like to deadhead them, and cut down the stalks!
Hi Jenny. My daylillies constantly needs cleaning during the growing season. The dead foliage needs to be pulled. I don’t normally deadhead mine either but I do remove the pods so they can bloom longer.
I know all the plants appreciate the clean up, like tying up your hair in the summer. Looks lovely now ! --- My essentials also include gardening sleeves, heavy duty large flathead screwdriver, and an old pillowcase. My skin is super sensitive to most plants and they can be peeled off and changed frequently. The screwdriver is my precision weeding tool, haha. And the pillowcase lays flat on the ground for clippings until they go into the big popup bin. I have to get that tool belt though!
Well, now I know what my baptisia is supposed to look like. I have cooler summers, so mine may never fill in like that, but another couple of years may help it along. I hope you cooled off and enjoyed the day:)
Perfect video! Thank you so much for explaining how to maintain a garden. I just radically cut back my day lilies and they freaked out that I messed up. Now I’m happy to know the foliage will flush back beautifully. Wow your channel is growing! So happy for that!
Thank you Jenny! So very, very, very helpful! Question, do you continue to fertilize the perennials that you trimmed back, for example the phlox! Thank you again! Visited your nursery in early June, loved it so much, can’t wait to go back!
Love your work and gardens. Can you please share with me how I can plant something in my sunny border to help shade my plants below. Something that is 10 r 15ft. Hi.
I finally bought some espoma fertilizer and omg it stinks. I have a new respect for the gardeners that use it all the time. I thought I was never going to get the smell out of my nose.
You should continue the stairs to the chicken coop. That may mean you need to remove more plants or garden. It looks frustrating to see a building with no access.
Thank you so much for your guidance on cleaning up perennials! Very helpful! I'm wondering about any cleanup for supertunias. This is my first year with supertunias in my front yard flower bed. I'm in Wilmington zone 8a and like everywhere, the heat, rain and humidity is making the lovelies look a little tired. Anything to do (other than weed and feed) that might give me some more enjoyment this summer? Thank you!
Thanks for the lessons, much needed this time of year. My baptisia is newly planted this year but seems to be spaying a bit. Would it be okay to prune it even if it’s new and not very big?
We have a bunny that ate my echinacea. They were tall pink at the back of the border. She left me stumps where the flower stems were. Dog has no effect on the bunny. She comes in from next door when we go to bed.
I finally dug up a large area of mine after years of powdery mildew. The fungus can live in the soil but can be spread to other plants through the air. You can try Bonide Copper Fungicide. I like the plants but I wonder if the new mildew resistant plants are really resistant.
Great program this morning. I noticed that you planter boxes are coming apart. Are you planning on building new ones/replacing them. If so, will you do a video on that - that would be very informative for your viewers! Thanks
Hi Jenny. Were you still planning on cutting back your Lime Lights this month? I remember hearing you say you were going to try to get a new flush of blooms this season in hopes of some turning pink instead of straight to brown. I live in the Raleigh area and so experience the same issue with ours. Would love to know if this trick will work!
Another beautiful day in your garden! Just love it and thanks for sharing how you clean up mid-season. Question: How do you control the powdery mildew on the phlox? I'm in Chicago and we get hot and muggy, but not as much as you do. We do get hot during the day, but it goes down to 65/70 at night. I stopped growing phlox, even though I love them, b/c of the powdery mildew attacking them so quickly. The plants come back every year, but then get destroyed by it. Any ideas? I used irrigation and when I grew them, they would get watered each morning around 6 AM for 30 minutes, with a 1/2 gallon per hour emitter. Thanks!
I personally don't like the electric tools I'd like to gas power ones since I also do landscaping I don't like spending all day especially in the California Sun
Thank you Jenny for all your good ideas and info! I bought a new amsonia this spring and then read it takes on Autumn tone in the fall. It is still in the large pot from this Spring. I would like to use it at the door for fall. Should I let it in the pot for winter or plant it out? I am zone 6b
My baptisia is 4 yrs old and only has about 7 stems. Not sure what happened. Because it is so tall and thin it falls over. So I thought I would transplant it to go behind a shrub and it did not like it at all. After a week of dead leaves I finally cut it back to the ground. Not sure if it will come back next year.
IF you wanted to because the loropetalum is so massive could you at this stage of their growth tree form or limb them up? Just wondering if it’s too late in their stage of growth to do that if you wanted to? 🌸💚🙃
QUESTION: If I’ve planted a new plant say a perennial salvia should I be pruning it back after it flowers? I guess what I’m thinking is if it’s trying to grow back what I’ve just pruned off it’s going to stop the roots from really settling in and getting stronger the first few years in the ground? My thoughts and I really hope I’m wrong is if your cutting off the foliage it needs to help the roots root in and get established should you be trimming it back? I hope that makes sense? 🌸💚🙃
For “myself” I would let it be till next year. Mine were small, so I waited till the following year to cut back after blooming. I’d love to hear what other’s would do!!
This is why I love you. Not only do you teach us about the plants and how to plant but how to clean them up mid summer. Thank you!
Hi Jenny, this is a just in time video! Thank you.❤🌸🇨🇦

I like that you're taking time to actually show the work and not just talk about it.

Thank you so much!
You forgot your most important tool: Brenna! ❤ thank you for walking us though these items!
Sweet Comment ❤❤❤Brenna is a Garden Girl for life
I have slowly switched to battery powered tools and they are so much easier for me to handle. Thanks for the tips!
Jenny, you do know I love your Babe! That’s why we drove from Illinois to NC to meet you and Jerry to get my Babe! ❤️🐖
Love beautiful brenna helping you to keep going!!!
I just trimmed back my pink salvia, day lilies, daises,, bee balm, knock out roses, Stella Dora’s, even my supertunias the other day when it was 100° and 80% humidity. So I feel your pain but that is what we gardeners do!!
I love to whack back a perineal, because I know in a few weeks it’s going to be beautiful and tidy; plus it helps to relieve stress!
So true!
❤ Thank you for sharing the bouquet. I too often do not make those bouquets thinking that I should just leave it outside. You are such a joy to watch and follow!
Amen to the ponytail method!❤😂
Thanks for the tutorial on cleaning up perennials! your cottage garden is beautiful!

Got mine from Amazing as well! Even gave one as a gift 😊
You are so welcome!
I have over 50 varieties of Daylily all rebloomers. Deadheading is an easy one handed job as I walk through the yard.
Thank you so much for taking the time to demonstrate up close and explain purpose and anticipated outcome. Sooo useful!
You are so welcome!
I cut my daylilies to the ground after they are done blooming. They grow back so quickly with beautiful foliage.
You always brighten my day and help relieve my stress Jenny! Thanks for the videos, your gardens are gorgeous! Very inspirational!

Jenny, welcome home. It's reassuring to watch you tackle the trimming, but I must admit I gasped a couple of times. Thx. cgzone8

Love Flowers and Creekside
All this time I thought I was subscribed, lol! I am now!
Your gardens are glorious!
A fun end to your informative video, I, too, like to pair basil with my zinnias, especially the purple basil.
Bunnies have been chewing on everything in the garden. There is an over abundance of baby bunnies this year.
I enjoy your videos so much! Even though i have gardened for yearsssss i love your advice! And i love daylilies ! They have such beautiful colors i just bought 3 more to put in my gardens!
Great video the bushes look better but next time get a shot of that wonderful grass that I made look amazing
Everything looks beautiful!
Love your channel. Very informative! Absolutely beautiful home, and amazed at the energy you have!

This video was so helpful. I never know what perrenials need pruning. I am def a hesitant gardener so this encourages me. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing about washing the gloves, I didn't know that could be done. I'm also very critical of myself, you are not alone there.
If you aren't a daylilly person, keep looking. You'll find one you'll love for sure. As Jenny would say, they are FAN-Tastic!!
Love learning from you. The deer are pruning most of my plants for me. I must have a salad bar for them. There is plenty around our house for them to eat. Makes me Sad!

I got all the Stihl battery operated tools. so light and easy to use. I love gardening with the right tools.

Great thank you for sharing this
Thank you Jenny! So very, very, very helpful! Question, do you continue to fertilize the perennials that you trimmed back, for example the phlox! Thank you again! Visited your nursery in early June, loved it so much, can’t wait to go back!

Very informative! What I needed to see, for sure.
For those of you who do not know subscribing is free there’s no charges involved.
Uh oh! Is that ONE 'String Theory' amsonia? I think I planted mine in a wrong spot.
It looks like an alien space craft landed in your yard. 👽
😆
Don’t panic! This isn’t String Theory 😉
Good Morning!! I would love to know what the plant is in front of the bird house. Has beautiful long purple blooms ❤
Liatris, she mentions it at 35:20.
Thank you
Good morning Jenny thanks for sharing
Laura I would take those 3 bushes out does giants make great trees & look great
@@user-il1gz9hh9i her name is Jenny
Jenny, how about a report on the solar lights from Hoselink?
They are doing great!!!!
Everything is looking great!! Could the loropetulums be limbed up in tree form. Seems like that could help and look great! Thank you Jenny!
I finally bought some espoma fertilizer and omg it stinks. I have a new respect for the gardeners that use it all the time. I thought I was never going to get the smell out of my nose.

I am wondering where I can purchase the pig in the front of your flower garden. He is awesome in your garden.
You need to have walters gardens send you some Whoops a daisy's. Would be amazing up by the chicken coop.
Just bought the hori hori. I’ve had two from Fiscers and both of them snapped the first time I used them 😢.
Where can you get the belt? Dont know where to look. Thank you for your program. Love it!❤
Here’s the link to their website 😊 wheelermunroe.com/

Thank you for showing us! My mildew resistant bee balm are covered in mildew ;) should I cut them even farther back in order to get rid of the mildew?

Ps. I live in zone 9 s.Texas heat.
Do the self watering containers require a special soil?
I’m not sure it registered with me that the big “bushes” were loropetalums!! Same kind I have?? 😳

I believe they’re zinnias
