    I really like that you only allow the hardy stuff in the garden and toss or relocate the weak performers so they can do better in another spot. Love your channel and I can't wait to see the beautiful summer display this year!

    Oooh - new camera John - wonderful! I've got a few snow gums here - but I'm in Australia, sub-alpine, so they're very happy. I raised my eucalyptuses from seed - you're right, it's easy. Our gardens are just going off to sleep here - it's nice to see someone working in spring.

    LOVE love love Carol Klein..She is my top to view. She needs more shows updated. Her enthusiasm is so powerful, she actually jumps forward explaining things..lol. I covet her aerial view ( looks white from air) of the wedding cake tree variegated willow on her intro. Hard to find. NOW that is one for your garden. My other fav, and have many, is the snowflake viburnum. They bloom 3 seasons. Carol covers all her seedlings w grit and has a presser board. When she transplants plants they are 4 feet tall that she then plants into her "jungle" . I hope she just cuts apple tree branches off w canka and not remove whole tree.

    Hi John, I noticed you don't grow wisteria and so I'm hoping that you feel as I do, that it's a terribly destructive plant. If you could discuss it in a video, it would be so much appreciated as most people seem so uneducated about it until it's too late.
    I can't wait to see the garden in full bloom, it's been a long winter without your garden.

    💐🖐️💐
    Plants are living creatures so they need care and attention, we do not expect to buy a plant then let it grow on it own, I used to see my mother _ may Allah bless her soul _ very busy with her little ones, watering them, protecting them from heat so we would have a little garden in the upper roof. I never knew the importance of her efforts to give us beauty and fresh air. Now I have realized the importance of having a small garden wherever possible. As a fresh learner of gardening skills, I make many mistakes which result losing some of my plants but some _ thanks to God _ are more resilient so they manage to flourish under the hot sun. Checking the plants everyday show us the problems they have and help them survive thirst, or any bugs' problems. It is amazing how every plant is different and how each one adds beauty to your space, so thank God for His Blessings. I see every house should have some greenery and a pet to relieve any stress and discomfort.
