- it’s another transition phase in the garden. Early bloomers like larkspur and foxglove, feverfew and poppies are done. Seed heads are now drying snd I can pull them out and get to clipping the boxwood balls they hid. Some order is restored!

Linda I try to watch a video of you every morning. You share so much garden wisdom with us. I am learning with your videos on how to use potted plants in my small garden. Thank you for sharing with us a little information about your daily earrings and your clothing that you wear. I also enjoy seeing certain areas of your home and how you decorate using items from your garden. Linda you are a true blessing to us all. I do believe that if our world leaders would walk through a garden at least once a day there would be more peace in this world.
I would definitely vote for that!
I talk to my plants every morning and tell them how beautiful they are and the joy they bring to me..
❤
me too ! how much I appreciate the beauty and life that they bring into my life ! I also tell them I am committed to them and will take care of them, so keep on growing and don't stop out of fear of not enough food or water cause I got you ! ha
I love that a walk through your garden reveals a delight around every corner. It must bring you endless joy ❤️
That it does!
I curse at the rabbits daily. I survey the damage (the cages came in by the way ! So gorgeous!) , then I say all the things I will do to them if they don’t stop eating my flowers ! I check to see what plants need fixing and fill my bird bath .
I dried my hydrangeas one fall. Then at Christmas I sprayed them gold and silver. Had huge arraignments and used some in a wreath.
I like natural stuff at Holidays then I don’t store anything in basement.
You and I were separated at birth!
Every day of the week I concentrate on that garden, and make sure everything is in order, and properly maintained.
Zone 9 here…love these walk abouts! I go out and see if I’m winning the war against snails and slugs! Lol! I spray myself down with OFF and off I go to water, water, water. I have many containers and it’s too hot not to water them daily right now. I pull weeds, prune here and there and just enjoy the birds singing, being out with nature. 😎 (I also sit in my “bistro” and watch your videos! 😉)
Just love watching you, Linda. So very therapeutic! Blessing to you and your beautiful garden work.
Love it! Many thanks for your updates. Keep it coming. Appreciate all that u do ♥️
A walk through your garden is really good for the soul...thank you! ❤️
I love the walkthrough your garden is stunning, always learn something new.
Always a highlight of my day walking about with you in your beautiful garden!!!
I always learn something new from your tours. Love the expression “ thug out” lol.
YES on a "watering practices" video.
Love the garden I can tell you have been working on it. Glad it gives u peace.
Thanks so much for your videos, I find them illustrative and very relaxing. May you stay healthy and keep that energy for many years to come.
Loved the long video and all the information
Beautiful Garden!!
Thank you !! 😊
Have you ever done a video on fertilizers? I am overwhelmed by all the different fertilizers, and I’m afraid to use them on my plants. Could you maybe give some good brands and how much to use, when to use, etc.? Thanks! Those huge hydrangea blooms are amazing!
Love 💕 the outfit, Linda , the things you find at Goodwill is just awesome, great tour, all is looking great 👍
I love the daily walkabout. Plus I always quickly find what squirrels have done. Their ideas of farming are different than mine! Love your site.
I'm so happy you are doing watering practices
Love Echinaceas. I have about 10 varieties growing in all different areas of my gardens. I’m in zones 5a and 6b for my zip code, 48381, in Michigan. I don’t cut them back until early spring so I can have some winter interest and food for any Bluejays, Cardinals, or Goldfinches that are around.
Really loved the design of those britches!!!! Very cool.
Very beautiful Linda🙂 You always make me want to get my pruners out.
I truly appreciate and enjoy your videos. Your hydrangea plant is stunning, and also the Amaryllis plant. Great inspiration.
I have sooo much to do in my tiny garden. It's an inspiration to see yours all tidied up and in good shape. Makes me want mine to look that way too. Thanks.
I can't seem to get enough of your videos :). Thoroughly enjoy them. You have a generous, authentic heart and remind me of all the nice people I have ever known. I wish you the best with your book!
Your gardens are beautiful and inspiring. I also do a daily walk about here in Davidson, NC zone 7a. Walking and watering my gardens are my morning meditation.
I, too, do a garden walk in the morning with my shears…love your garden!
Loved that curly jade and the chosen pot it was in!😍Great to hear you are an obsession hoarder!! You are not alone
Everyday-I go out and just enjoy the beauty of my spaces-Everyday.
Love your walk about’s, you give me such inspiration. And I so enjoy the fashion part as well!🌷
I’m so glad!
Got my trellis this week! Now to decide where! Bought the copper and the smaller cone shaped one. LOVE them!
YOUR GARDEN IS SO GORGEOUS LINDA, YOU GIVE ME SO MUCH INCENTIVE AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO GO INTO MY GARDEN 🪴 THANK YOU 🙏 THANK YOU 🙏 SO VERY VERY MUCH FOR SHARING!!!!!!!
You are such an inspiration and create such beautiful gardens. Hello from Tennessee!
So much appreciate the time and effort you put in the garden to look so rich and cozy. I would spent days and nights in the garden and never get bored. Well done Linda 👍⚘
Watching your videos make me realize how much I can plant in dappled light. My back yard has very large trees that keeps the yard shaded with dappled light the whole day. I’ve lived here a couple of years and have always felt that not much would grow in the shade. Looks like I am wrong! Now I’m gonna get to work!
I love your style. There are so many things I like that you do that it's just easier to say I love your style!!
I love the sound of the birds in the back ground .so pretty and peaceful. You inspired me to plant a topiary .I planted it a small container and I put the little pebbles like you suggest. Its so cute and doing well....Thank you for that tip.
Linda… You are awesome..
God bless you.
Loved walking your garden with you! My daily walk has me doing the usual weeding and dead heading. I also check my bird feeders and fill my bird bath with fresh water. The birds being me joy. My raised bed contains my herbs and they get water and trimmed and picked and brought inside to use and enjoy the smell in my kitchen. Watering here in zone 7 is the biggest issue in our hot summer.
I love looking at you in your beautiful space
Just gorgeous!
My favorite part- you wielding snips around and using "thug out" and "gangbusters" on such an elegant garden. 🌳💚
I feel you on the larkspur!! Mine just barely started blooming and as much as I love it, it spread to the wrong part and I'm itching to pull it. I'm going to take your advice and get the seeds to put it in a better spot next year then I won't feel bad about pulling it where it is!!
Great idea a video on watering! Look forward to seeing it
Wonderful walkabout! Your garden is looking fabulous! You actually addressed a couple of questions I have been pondering - when is it too hot to fertilize and what should I use for bud worms. Thank you for another great informative video! Love the outfit too! Have a great day!
Every morning, I love to walk around my garden in zone 8. I love to water my garden. So I usually have to water hanging g baskets and some of my pots but I check. I dehead every day as I wear. Love to watch the sunrise.
I love the brick pattern it looks authentic
I love watching your walk abouts. I'm in zone 8b and we go from a short spring right to 90+ temps over night. Some positives though are my Amaryllis I have planted in the ground and let them go to seed and we have more and more each year.
Stewart is like having your own personal ground footage drone!❤️. Beautiful garden!👍
He is!!
I'm only 73, but a few years ago I had to clear out my beds because it just became too much to care for even on a daily basis.
I'm so glad I did because I can now not be overwhelmed by my favorite place in the world...my gardens
73 years young! 😊
Linda, I could watch your informative videos all day!! I really have learned so much from you. I wish I could retire; as today here in North Carolina, the humidity has been lower and only in the 80's and I want to be outside so bad!!
Wow amazing hydrangea. Thanks for tip on amaryllis reblooming. Already passed this info to my super gardener son in law.
Love your outfit.
Thanks for the walk about Linda & BFF Stewart !
Here’s an idea…
Move your earthy wooden bench in front on your huge beautiful hydrangeas .
This way the hydrangeas can continue to grow and be the “ super stars “ that they want to be.
Then your wooden bench can be enjoyed as a graceful, useable, restful seating area in your garden again.
I feel the wooden bench will look fantastic on the brick, without hiding it between the hydrangeas.
Try it you might love it !
Yes!
I love your garden, Linda, and love that you share with us! Thank You! I love to garden! I learn much from your videos, and others. But it’s such a favorite pastime for me to watch all you share with us. I love videos of all you do- your garden, others’ gardens, inside your home and others, garden-center & antique shops, just EVERYTHING!! I also preordered you book on Amazon, and look forward to getting it in March! -Karen ☺️♥️🌈🦋
“Thug out”. I love that; I have a trailing purple lantana that acts like a thug and it get pruned every time it blooms or it will shade out my other perennials. Watering pots every day and moving pots out of harsh afternoon sun along with dead heading is my daily walkabout.
Thank you so much for telling us about the plumbers tape! I have actually quit using hoses because the leaked so bad at the connections.
Beautiful 'back yard' .... yes, always something to do - watering, snipping & pruning. Our Season
is opposite to you, but I still get lots of ideas & tips.
Beautiful 🥰❤️ 💕 love love love your garden and tips
Lynne here, Linda, you have given me so much more than information. You’ve given me a reason………. I love my garden but sometimes I feel out of my depth. You give me the confidence to just do it. I’m so excited for all the things I have planned. I love the plant supports and baskets in your line . Can i get these in Canada? I’ve bought an old window which I’ll paint and use in the garden. It was free on Kijiji. Seeing your thrift finds makes me want to go thrifting for garden treasure. Thanks again.
that s brilliant to have plants soak in the bird bath before planting!
Enjoyed very much Linda!
The garden is beautiful. It is hard to believe the devastation it suffered last winter. My Oak leaf hydrangeas are in full bloom here in Delaware. They are my favorite ! Even in winter their bark is beautiful and adds so much interest .
I’m in western Washington Z8b and our springs are cool and wet. I’m a quarantine boom again gardener so I have to find motivation to brave the damp and get outside.
A new daily practice for me is bringing flowers inside every day. I have picked 5 spots inside my home to display flowers (2 medium, 3 smaller). Every morning I go out in search of replacements for whichever one is fading. Sometimes it’s quite the task but I find myself using a lot of things I would have never considered a “cut” flowers. This also gets me looking at all my pots and beds daily.
I picked up a curly jade near the end of winter, and it did really well indoors for several months, doing even better outside!
Wow your garden is absolutely beautiful
I pull weeds every single day while walking the dog outside I also pick up branches from my Oak trees around the yard. Your yard looks so pretty thanks for sharing Kris from Branson Mo
Thanks Linda. That was very informative. I found the little black spots on the back of my Amaranth leaves today. A fertilizer vid would be spectacular. I really need help with that !!!
I garden in Zone 6 in Northeast Ohio (we used to be Zone 5 and a much shorter growing season). Thanks for the reminder to fertilize but not during intense heat. I’m ordering soluble kelp powder to supplement my container and basket feeding. Watching your walkabout Wednesdays is like visiting a good friends garden. I’m renewing my life long passion for gardening. And I’m going to sculpt my first topiary this week thanks to your 5 part topiary tutorial. Thanks for your inspiration. Hugs from sunny green Cleveland Ohio
Hi Linda just loved the walkabout today. Your garden is looking so beautiful as always. And just love the hydrangea s so beautiful. And my favourite as to be the viburnum so do beautiful l just look forward to see it bloom. You gave really good tips and tricks today for all of us and really good advice on feeding your pots and plants in the garden. And you look so cool today in your beautiful clothes.
Thanks dear!
Wow look at you! Over a 100k subscribers! Congrats 🎉 Great news about the plumber’s tape.
I just received my first big package from your qvc line! The quality and style is so stunning! I am so happy that I got almost everything from your line. As a new gardener from scratch you are so helpful in every way! I definitely spend more time in my garden everyday. Thank you so much!
I’m so pleased!
I love your walk around the garden. I do the same in my PJs almost every morning. Love your Qvc line. Waiting for what’s next. Maybe your scooper or a form to cut topitary balls.The guy that she is to make a perfect ball. I also enjoy your use of words at nausea is my favorite.
The guide to make a perfect cut ball.
Hi Linda, Zone 7B here. I carry a little cleaning type caddy, with my gloves, Felco snips, trowel and garden ties when I do my walk about.
Lovely walk about. I learn so much from you😃 I’m learning how to identify pest problems at this stage of my gardening life. So I’m focused on those nasty little invaders.
Thank you have a wonderful day 🪴
And they get a specially nasty this time of year
How wonderful Amaryllis ! I was shocked last week when i didn´t find mine...The snails did their good job all night long !
That sprayer is so cool! I want one.
Love the Spiral Variegated Boxwood !
What a lovely garden. 💕
Love your garden tours. I always learn something! I have more potted plants this year and am loving it. I have kept my amaryllis over the years. And give away after I start getting so many. I had one bloom already. A Really Short stem!!!
Cool!
Love it that your garden has symmetry and the tool tip with the hose spout thank you 😊 sawflys are a nuisance, I don't like sprays uhg. Must be wonderful to have a BFF Hi Stewart (maybe silent partner but Linda is so greatful as are we in what you do) watering video would be helpful ❤ 😊 always intune to guidance on gardening needs thank you very much. Enjoy the Journey God bless
I'm still waiting for the rain to stop, its so wet underfoot. That's our winter for you! I have become a massive fan of worm castings it has made my struggling wannabe garden into a flourishing beauty. No matter the planting. The herbs have never been so big or flavorful. Even areas that refuse to produce over many years no matter what I put into the soil. This is magazine worthy. 😆 I added it to roses (10 years +)that were waiting to be placed after contactor, looking dead, have shoots of the size i have not seen . Enough said!
Edit, your pants are a Burda pattern from a few years ago. I've not got around to making those yet...they look soooo cool
My ears are always listening for things people say that could be taken differently, in an amusing way. In today's video, Linda interjects a remark that's kind of amusing if considered as one thought (which might occur if someone were just listening and not seeing what Linda was actually doing!)
"I planted these and they were really pitiful, this is why I always carry snips…."
Watch out you pitiful plants if you see Linda roaming with her snips... LOL
When I was growing up, one of my mother's best friends lived next door to a woman with a beautiful garden who was a very nasty person. My mom's friend used to say that even the plants were terrified of this woman. She said she thought the woman would come out every morning and say, "Attention!" and all of the plants would raise their heads and stand tall, not wanting to incur her wrath! LOL
lol!!!
Linda love your gardens, Helen Martin .
I live just north of you in Kansas, zone 6. Early in the morning, before it gets HOT, I enjoy weeding and deadheading my daylilies. Yes, I know, they don't need to be deadheaded but I like removing the spent blooms - lol! I have several containers of Supertunia Vista Bubblegum that are looking full and fabulous!! My Quick Fire Hydrangea is blooming beautifully! I'm so excited how my Little Limelight Hydrangea's are coming along! The row of lavender I planted in front of the Little Limelight's have been blooming and so fragrant!! After the minus 29 degree temperatures we had in February, I feel so happy and blessed that I have a flower garden at all!! I so enjoy your channel!
Love oak leaf hydrangeas. I have just one but it towers 7’ tall and 4’ wide! Not only are its blooms huge but the fall leaf color is spectacular.
I couldn’t agree more
Beautiful tour. Thank you. I walk around my front and back yards every morning and sometimes in the evening. I check to see if pots need watering. I also take my snips to trim and deadhead. I have 2 hose holders on my house, one in back and front. It's decorative and cute but the best part is how I can turn the handle and wind up the hose. It sure makes a difference when putting up the hose after watering. It's quick and so much easier than gathering up the hose to store. I think my son's got them for me from Lowe's.
How wonderful that you have something that works and is good looking too!
I’m thrilled finally understand who Stuart is. The running joke in my house is that I’m going to rope my husband into being my cameraman to follow me around the garden 😂. Glad to know Stuart is a paid business partner. I won’t tell my husband that though 🤫
Husbands don't need to know everything... haha!
The Jade was an eye catcher for me. Will surely be on the hunt for it. The Geraniums were awesome. A couple people have told me that I should not have them in my garden,,, they are a Cemetary Flower. I think that they are wrong. I always get them going first as my annuals. Thanks for all the info you give. Have a Great Day..
I love that little bird bath statue in the window box area! My flower obsession is that i've been revisiting Cosmos. They were the first flower i remember being attracted to and one of my favorites to press when i was a kid. I've been noticing some new colors a pale yellow and a blue and white sea shell mix which i'm trying out for the first time.
Love double clicks and cup and saucers
Stewart is an excellent photographer.
He is!!!
I'm so glad you mentioned the Snowflake hydrangea. My very favorite. I worked at Aldridge Gardens in Hoover, AL which was the former home of Eddie Aldridge, local nurseryman. Eddie and his dad found the one in a million seedling which was different from its mother native oak leaf. They dug it up and began propagating it through cuttings since it is a sterile plant. He patented the Snowflake so it would be well known. It is now found all over the world. He took no royalties for it. Eddie was a sweet man who passed away about 3 years ago.
Love the walkthroughs👌✨
Just beautiful
Glad the tape is working for you. I know it has for me for years. I use it with the irrigation connection to the faucet too. I look everyday what needs attention, what needs weeding, what needs moved.
Thank you so much for the recommendation
Wow, everything looks great...you have been busy! We've had a couple beautiful days before the heat comes in again so I too have been working hard cleaning things up...I love the feeling of accomplishment when I'm done! Zone 5b
Nothing better than that feeling of accomplishment!
Your garden is beautiful as always
I'm sitting on my front porch with a cup of coffee enjoying your video and watching the bird feeder. I heard blue jays calling and paused your video do I could look for them as they rarely come to the front yard. They prefer the pond out back.
Realized they were in your yard.🤣
🤣😂🤣😆
My husband loves to tease me about talking to the Jays that visit my deck. I told one the other day not to make a mess with his peanuts because I had just cleaned up the deck.
Second glimpse of Stewart in the glass today! He is a hoodie guy huh. laughs..love your videos and your products on QVC!
Poor guy has to protect even his ears from the mosquitoes. They love him!
Beautiful!!
