Alstroemeria! Wow I think I have found a new favourite plant!
I bought another 4 varieties this year which I’ll be showing in a video hopefully this week 😁
@@TropicalPlantAddict lol I will be on the search also :-)
North Tx zone 8a and going to see what of these I can snag here for our deck! Thank you!🌺
I love your garden! I can get flowers to grow, but I do t know how to place them to look good. You have done a wonderful job! I have never heard of crocosmia, but I love it and am searching the internet for some. Thanks!
Southwest Texas 9b with very little rain and temps over 100. I’m impressed with your island.🌴💗
Thank you! 🌺☀️😄
Absolutely beautiful love that you have so much colour in your garden ❤
Oh gosh your garden is looking so gorgeous and I always really love seeing it. And I am so sorry that you haven't been feeling good and I was wondering why I hadn't seen any of your posts here, and was worried about you. Thanks so much for this wonderful video, and I wish you a blessed and restful rest of your day, always so great seeing you and your beautiful tropical area, sending love and hugs, bye! 😉😂🤗😘🌺🌸💮🙏👍💜💜
Very beautiful garden.
Beautiful bloom, beautiful garden 😍
Just gorgeous, always is though.
Beautiful! Cannas, hardy hibiscus, salvias, and geraniums are my current favorites in my garden. They've done great through the heat waves we're experiencing in California.
Ah yes Geraniums are really pretty too 😍
How beautiful can that garden be!
Nice video once again👍🏻. I would like to say that your video’s are a great inspiration for my own tropical garden, so many thanks for that! Many of your favorites are also my favorites (Canna’s, crocosmia’s and begonia’s) I have two Oleanders and a Mandevilla which would also do really well in your garden. Greetings from the Netherlands🙂🇳🇱
Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden space. Cannas are some of my favorites as well.
Another wonderful vídeo. Good that you have a lot of rain to keep the garden nice and green. We here are afraid to loose our gardens due to restrictions to save water because of the drought. Greetings from south of Portugal.
I’m sorry to hear that, I hope that you don’t lose your garden 😢
I have several fushias and they come back every year - even after this very cold winter. I have 2 hibiscus, again, both have survived for several years. I am sure that yours will be fine :) Glad to see 4 of your top flowers are also ones that I grow in my garden.
Thanks that’s good to know 🙃🌺🌴
Your garden is more lovely every year, Hannah! Well done!
I'm at Northern coastal California, also zone 9b.
My favorites are, California poppy (native), zinnia's, clivia (kaffir lily), geraniums, and herbs - chocolate mint is my favorite of those, It smells SO good!
Glad you're feeling better and love to Monster and Marvin! 🥰
Thank you 💚🌺 Ah yes I have a Clivia on the patio 🙃 Wow chocolate mint sounds amazing, it’s making me want some chocolate chip ice cream 🍦 😆

BEAUTIFUL GARDEN
SO MANY FLOWERS... 👍👍👍👍👍❤🌷🌷🌷🥀🥀🥀🌹🌹🌿🌿
Beautiful garden.
Alstroemeria beautiful.
Gosh I just love that Canna Cleopatra, Hannah. I can't wait to see the flower of the yellow type. Sorry you've been ill, glad you are over the worst. Your garden is just amazing, but I think you'll be getting a little bored soon and think of something new and even more fantastic to wow us all yet again. Did you have much luck with the Caladiums this year? Mine all disintegrated! 💚
Thank you 💚🌺🌴 Hmm my caladiums haven’t done that well this year either, my Red Flash is looking the best (in the living room). I might move the others outside 🌴
Lovely Garden ^~^
My friend, thank you for good sharing 😊

Your garden is looking beautiful
Lindo demais seu jardim... 🌿🌺
Absolutely gorgeous. I'm trying my best to make my garden more tropical here in canada.
So beautiful!
Beautiful plants
Beautiful garden
Sorry you haven’t been well lately. Nice to see your garden is looking great. I also have a Canna Cleopatra amongst others but the one I bought a tuber of this year is called Stuttgart. Which is now nearly six feet tall not sure if it’s the feed or variety but a really nice variegated variety.
Brautiful gatden.
Wonder full
So sorry you have been feeling poorly…I finally found an Alstroemeria Indian Summer! Hard to find around here…Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden. Stay well!!
Thank you 💚 Ah you’ll love it 🌺
Love it beautiful ❤
😍
Zone 8b ,SC
I enjoyed your choice of top 5. Have you ever tried any Heliconias. Also I thought you also used to have some Neoregelia Bromeliads which I grow a lot of. Funny to think you are in zone 9A and so am I in gulf breeze Florida which is the northwest panhandle of the state. I’m thinking about trying to find some of the flowers that were your first choice they are so beautiful! I’ve also been thinking about trying out Crocosmia
Where are your solar garden lights from? They look cool!
Lights4fun, I think they are linked in my Amazon shop ✨
I wonder if the Mansoa alliacea would grow there. It's a very gorgeous, fence plant.
Love your flamingos...may i ask you where did you get them
They are Don Featherstone realmingos, I got them from eBay 💚
Video tip: If you want your garden, plants and walkways to look better. Water the whole yard right before filming. The wet rocks color with be more striking, as well as gravel, and plants will look more colorful.
Thanks yes it does look so pretty and vibrant after the rain! Unfortunately we’ve had so much rain over the past week or so that it definitely didn’t need watering the day of filming 😆🌺🌴☀️
I’m a pro videographer and photographer and that might work for 5 mins but when it starts drying, in different spots, which happens pretty quickly, it looks bad. I do real estate photography full time for over 10 yrs now. The way to fix the color, saturation and exposure is by setting the camera to work how you need it too. Or you can film on a slightly overcast day for better saturation in your colors. Can’t always count on the sky tho. Editing and fixing white balance, highlights and shadows will make it look the best.

What feed do you use please and how often? Do you feed the enormous Hosta? It all looks fabulous 🎉😊
Thanks so much! I usually feed my flowering plants liquid tomato and foliage plants liquid seaweed. I used to fertilise every other week in the summer but this year I only done it once so far
@@TropicalPlantAddict thank you 😊
How do you care for your banana plant over winter in the UK? I cannot bring him indoors 😞
Hi there, if you have a look in my tropical garden playlist, I have videos each year on how I overwinter the plants, I’ll be making an updated one this year 💚
Thank you, I have only just come across your channel and I am in love ❤️ it's absolutely stunning
@@jeanmcintosh1653 thanks and welcome 💚🌺
Do you protect your cannas. In winter
I just chop them back and mulch over them. I make a video each year on how I overwinter the plants (see tropical garden playlist) 💚🌺🌼
❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺
