    Feel better fast. I am sorry you got stung. I hope you feel less itchy soon. I had a yellow jacket chase me when I accidentally got too close to a nest I didn't know was there. I react badly if I get stung, and ran for the sliding glass door. I got inside and shut the door, but could see him on the other side of the glass trying to get in. I feel your pain.

  • @gelwood99

    Yellow Jackets are like attack wasps. The first sting is their call for reinforcements and then the gang's all there getting popped multiple times. Unlike other bees, they can sting multiple times with ease. So sorry you got attacked. I actually ran a pushmower over a few years ago and it took seconds to sprint the 50 yards to my door and jump into the shower, clothes and all. Only 9 stings that time. That was miserable to deal with. Of course, my granny had to apply chewed tobacco and baking soda paste over my stings and a slug of bourbon for extra measure. That is so not a pleasant experience, the itching is relentless! Just be glad it was a small colony. Starting to look good around there. Baby steps as it comes together.

    • @TheSouthernersNorthernGarden
      @TheSouthernersNorthernGarden  Před rokem +1

      Oh it wasn't a small colony. I was probably stung around 20 or so times before I was able to get in the pool. That's why I was so miserable!

    Hi Matthew! So sorry to hear that you were attacked by yellow jackets, and I hope you're doing better! They are very mean. I'm glad you had the pool to jump in! Congrats on getting your first bed finished! That's awesome! I like your choice of plants for that area and looking forward to watching it all fill in. The flower bed above it will be so pretty with the hydrangeas up there, and anything else you add. You may have already talked about it, but are you planning on having all raised beds in the area for your vegetable garden, and will you be using the same same raised beds you used at your other place? It's nice that your Dad is coming to help remove the trees. Things like that are so much easier when you have help. Seeing all of those plants in pots has everyone looking forward to where you put them. Thank you so much for sharing!

    Garden work you've done is looking good! Yellow jackets are nasty mean bees! I have good luck with using lavender essential oil on bee stings. It helps with the bad itching. I just dab a few drops on each sting, (I raise honeybees, have needed it a few times).

    Love the shade garden choice of plants and great to see you chose some plants that like more sun and said ‘it will do just fine’. I have a couple acres and mostly shade around our home so am constantly fretting about how much sun my plants get, but am finding in most cases 3-4 hours of sun is fine.
    Love your videos, you are such an inspiration and great teacher.

    Thank God for the pool! Oh wasps are so crazy next to swimming pools though. Certain times of the day laying in the pool on a raft I got hit about 5-6 stings. I wasn’t even moving, just laying there on the water and bang. I’m assuming they were yellow jackets, such viscous creatures. Hornets are another country creature to be aware of by the pool too. I’m happy you’re okay because that could turn so badly with a nest. I’m so excited to see what you do with this property. 😊

    You've planted quite a few plants for such a small area, will everything have enough room? You have tons of possibilities all around you, don't let it overwhelm or intimidate you. The transition from an average size city lot to one with actual land is challenging and going to require some getting used to.

    Part two. Congrats on yr new property. Not sure if I said that on yr 1st intro of it 2 us. So looking 4ward 2 seeing all yr new gardens!
    I have so many questions 4 you. But b4 I ask away.....so so sorry about yr wasp attack. Yr 4tunate u aren't allergic! At least in a serious way. But for that itching. You must have Plantain growing there around the wooded edge. Snip off some of the newest leaves and chew one in yr mouth. Mush it up and put on one of yr itchy spots.
    That's 4 a quick fix I use 4 all my mosquito bites which works fast.
    But what I like 2 do it chopped it up and put in a small jar and pour in Witch Hazel. You can use it in a few days but it's better if left longer than strain.
    I also have on hand already mixed into a paste like consistency is Bentonite Clay by Redmond. I swear, it takes the itch away like in seconds on mosquito bites and takes the swelling down soon after.
    Now 4 one of my questions which I'm worried about U, yr partner and dogs .
    That corn field by yr driveway, is it grown organically? If not, be careful when they spray. Don't let yr dogs near yr driveway 4 a few days after a spray. It can get on their feet.

I am looking for easy care flower garden in our front yard.

You have so many beautiful plants to get into the ground and established before it gets really cold here in Ohio. I’ve had good luck with moving in bigger perennials and shrubs later in fall. Will you heel in any leftover plants? Good luck!

      I hoping I don't have leftovers, but if I do I'll protect them somehow through spring. I would normally do that in my raised beds, but I don't currently have any. So maybe the mulch pile? The goal is still not to have any leftover.

      The Spruces have needlecast. All of them around here get it. I don't know if you have been following the channel for long, but I had to have 2 removed from my old home last October for the same reason. They just don't thrive here. Nearly every one you see looks like these and these just get progressively worse over time.
