    • @PipMiister
      @PipMiister Před 3 lety +23

      In New Zealand we have these as Monarch caterpillar food trees (they can grow into trees if left). We call them Swan plants. The seed pods look like swans - so the stem that attaches to the main plant is the neck and the pod is the swans body. They have a heap of seeds inside which are attached to silk type fly-aways... (keep one to open in Autumn/Fall)
      The Monarch caterpillars usually strip the plant of all of its leaves and most people need to buy more plants to feed them..lol

    I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your blog, I fell into your blog accidentally. One day I was just thinking about my mother and the memories that we had when I came across it one day and started watching it and I had to watch everyone of your videos. I wanted to let you know that I am a 56-year-old woman that lost her mom when I was in my early 30s and so I was not able to learn through experience about gardening and flowers from my mom. I so enjoy seeing videos of you doing things with your mother and the friendship and closeness that you two share. I have learned so much from your videos about gardening, you have helped me be able to bring my mom back alive in my flowers and in my garden. I love working in the dirt because I feel like it brings me closer to my mom, I can’t thank you enough for what you were doing, for the kindness of your heart and the positive atmosphere that you have. I know with your growing family it is hard to do these videos but please know that you have helped me bring back the tender moments from my mom and remember the things that we did do while she was here on this earth.

I'm in zone 7 and blue spruce are not doing well here and the more reputable garden centers will not even sell them.

It is great that you show exactly what it is and how to take care of it!

    I originally wanted this to be a white garden. However, now I agree that would be better suited in a shadier, more intimate area of the garden. This area of your garden may be my favorite. I like the structure of the maples and boxwoods, the hardscape of the brick path and urns and the site-lines into the veg garden. My suggestion- since you will be using more color interest, keep the urns simple. Just one vertical plant per urn. Those urns are too beautiful to be covered up.

    Maybe you could have a moon garden in that space just for the spring, when the sunlight isn't as harsh and there's more cloud cover? You already have white tulips planted there, so you can add to that with white daffodils, hyacinths and pansies, as well as white blooming shrubs, like white lilacs or dwarf cherry blossoms. I think that would look quite nice.

    Thank you for this tour! When I first heard the term moon garden (long ago) and found out what it meant, my first thought was "meh". However, I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE what you did with your moon garden, including the hardscape you've done. I'm determined to find some way to incorporate this concept in my small yard somehow. I perfectly understand why you want to change it, but I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate seeing how you've designed this garden. I would never have thought to do this in my own garden without you showing me how it could be done. Sometimes I have to see things in order to understand their full potential. Now I can always refer back to this video when I'm looking for inspiration. Of course, I do that with all your videos. :)

    And pink roses are really nice in a garden.

    I do know the feeling of constantly rearranging things to find the perfect place for them.
    Once I find the perfect spot that works I am so happy about it.

    What about making this space a “two-tone” garden? Like white and only purple or white and only peach. That way you can still keep that element of structure and some air of formality. And it would keep it a visually restful space while still allowing color so it doesn’t look dried out. And it would unify that long vista so your eyes wouldn’t get too tired while scanning down that stretch. I think it could look really classy. Plus, if you make that second color fairly dark (like purple), the white would still “pop” against it in the moonlight.
