July Garden Tour / The New Path is Done / #julygardentour #gardentour #gardening
Hiya, I thought I’d show how my garden is looking in early July 2024. Everything has been a lot slower compared with last year,I think due to the cold and wet weather we have been having here in Scotland. It has honestly felt like Autumn instead of summer. Never mind, I still love getting out in it every chance I get. Let me know what’s been doing great and not so great for you and where you are at in the world. Shoutout to my daughter Anna who is a lot better at this TH-cam malarkey than me. Fabulous job filming Anna! Thank you!

I went up to Dundee yesterday to see my brother and as always I stopped off on the way at my most favourite garden centre. It is called Glendoick and is absolutely beautiful. The effort that goes into it is so obvious. If you ever get the chance you should give it a wee visit.

I also brought some shells home from the beach and decided to use them aroundmy pebble pond. Then a wee quick update on the latest plants in flower right now.

    I enjoyed watching this. Your daughter is a good camera woman and it must've been easier for you not having to do both jobs at once. Love your new path. It's made a huge difference hasn't it? Hope you've had a good birthday. I've started asking for things related to the garden too if people ask what I want as a present. Would never have believed it twenty years ago. That's a gorgeous hydrangea that your daughter bought. I've just ordered a new elf/pixie for my garden and my brother calls it a hideous monstrosity so I told him that's a shame as it's his Christmas present and I'm getting organised early this year! Your garden is looking great with your plants growing away. I wish I could keep Pansies/ Violas like yours. They always seem to die after a few weeks in my garden. I watch the perennial garden too and saw their trick with the Alliums. Have a great week.

    My mum was from Linlathen, Dundee but she moved away when she married my dad. We used to visit my grandparents but I don't really remember much about it as I was only small. I've got a cousin who lives in Broughty Ferry. I love Scotland and we had a holiday not that long ago in Kyle of Lochalsh then another year visiting The Borders. I can honestly say that the food was out of this world. (How I judge a holiday!) It's just a shame that the journey from Cheshire is such a long one otherwise we'd be holidaying there all the time. The plant with the giant leaves is called Gunnera, also known as giant rhubarb. I heard the other day that it's being banned as it's so invasive. My brother has it in his garden which can take a plant of that size. My garden is a lot smaller. I can see why you love that garden centre as It looks like it's got a bit of everything. Thanks for taking us along with you.

    Good idea to put the shells around the edge of your pond. I like the frog in the centre. No wonder our plants are being munched this year looking at the size of those snails. Your Sunflower is looking lovely. Mine are no way near flowering as I had to re-sow quite late. Think I told you before that the germination wasn't good first time around plus the ones that did come through got munched. My garden is usually full of them by now but I think I've only got about six in total this year. Your Rose is gorgeous. Isn't it nice to have some sunny weather? Mind you, I'm getting fed up with all the watering as I have a lot of things in pots. I expect you're finding the same in your garden.

      Thank you so much, I was really pleased with how the pebble pond turned out. I just need to get more shells. I’ve had that wee frog for ages, it used to be on a wee hanger but that part broke so I thought he’d be a great wee addition to the pond 🐸. Aw I feel your pain with the snails. I lost all my zinnia seedlings to them and just had to give up with them this year. It’s so frustrating when you put all the work into them. I am so enjoying this weather although like you it is tough keeping all the plants happy with enough water. I really love that rose , it was a real bargain for £10 at Dobbies last year.

    Your garden has really taken off since I last saw it. I could feel your pain when you knocked off the Allium's head as I did the same with a Lily's which I'd been waiting for weeks to flower. I decided to move the pot to the front garden and it snapped. I was gutted as it had about five flowers on the one stem. Those Begonias were a good price. I think they're a very underestimated plant. They flower for ages, need little attention and grow anywhere. Yours are going to look perfect in that little corner. I love your pots with the strawberries and Nasturtiums. I'm drawn to anything with a butterfly on! Hope you have a great week as the weather is meant to improve. We had hailstones on Saturday and the garden was white and looked like it had been snowing. Never seen that in what's supposed to be flaming June.

    Your sunflowers are doing well. So many of mine got eaten by the slugs so I had to sow another batch which has made them fall behind this year. Normally I've planted them in the ground by now. Your yellow lilies are gorgeous. Mine aren't in flower yet but have their buds. I've been in my garden all day today and I've still got loads to do. I seem to be so far behind this year because of the awful weather. I follow a channel "Paul T's World" and he did a video of slugs and snails at night. No wonder so many of our plants get decimated. Your garden is looking lovely and everything is growing away nicely.

      Thank you, I have been a bit luckier with the sunflowers this year, I’ve just sown another wee batch so hopefully they’ll be ok too.

I’m hoping to get out today and tidy away the last of the pots and hopefully get the pebble pond area looking better. I’m also going to the garden centre for a cuppa and cake later so that’s nice, I’m going to try not to buy any plants but I do think I’m lacking in some bedding plants this year 🙈😬.

    I just love your patio area. So interesting. I bet it's great to sit there with a cuppa and plan your next job!

    I'm lying on the sofa after spending 12 hours in the garden. What do I do, watch you gardening on youtube! I'm supposed to be relaxing. You've got a lot of plants. I like the yellow ones (I can't spell their name) and the clematis. Happy gardening😊

      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Aw well done on being out in the garden so long. I do exactly the same thing, I just love watching other people garden too. Thank you, I think that might be the Rudbeckia plant. I couldn’t believe seeing that new bloom on the Clematis Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and leave a lovely comment 🥰

    Beautiful! Especially the corner with the Shubertii🤗 Love how everything is so lush and green at this time of year 😍 I’m with you on the seedling overwhelm coz ‘someone’ got a bit overexcited with the seed sowing and now it looks like I’m running a commercial nursery 😆

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haha, I’m actually lol at the commercial nursery 😂. I really love that wee area too. I think I might actually have a Christophii allium. Not bad, 1 out of 10 bulbs 🙃. I’m really needing to get everything in this weekend, once that’s done I’ll be able to just enjoy it hopefully 😊. Thanks again for taking time out of your day to watch and leave a really nice comment 🥰

    Gosh your garden has really grown. It's amazing what a few days can do. I love your different Heucheras. I had quite a few but they don't like my heavy, clay soil and they've rotted with all the rain that we've had. I'll buy them again and keep them in pots. Were the Delphiniums easy to germinate from seed? That's another plant that I buy every year but the slugs attack them. If I can get them to grow from seed it'll work out cheaper. Weather is meant to improve. Been the worst Spring that I can ever remember. Thanks for the tour.

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Aw thank you. I seem to have been lucky with the Heucheras for some reason. I’ve always found delphinium quite tricky to not so much germinate but keep them alive when they are small. This is my only success out of goodness knows how many. I really hope the weather does improve as I’m starting to worry about the dahlias getting too wet. Thank you so much again for watching, I really appreciate it 🥰

    I'm full of admiration for you squeezing in a spot of gardening before going work. The most I ever did was open the zips on my grow houses! I got some Geums too from Morrison's last week but I'm sure that I paid more than you. I've thrown away the receipt but I do remember they were cheaper than the ones in the garden centre. I had Morrison's Petunias last year and they were lovely so I grabbed a few when I saw them last week and they were 3 for 2 so a really good price. Our Morrison's is very hit and miss with their plants as a lot of them need a good watering but on other days they have some really good bargains. The slugs and snails have been a real pain this year. I suppose it's been the best sort of weather for them this year.

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you, I think I’m obsessed with the garden so any chance I get I’m out there lol. Our Morrisons here in Stirling always seem to have a good selection and they’re usually well looked after. Speaking of petunias, I am so excited as I have bought Supertunias to try. I’m not sure if they’ll do any good here with our weather but thought I’d give them a bash. It’s been raining here all day so I’ve been out and done my slug and snail check 😬. Thank you so much for watching my video again. 🥰

    Your cottage style garden is just perfect! Birdsong is lovely. I've been afraid of sowing lettuce because I'm sure the slugs will get it but I do like your B&M stand - nice idea.

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Aw thank you so much Rich. It’s starting to all fill in now thankfully. I really hope the slugs don’t climb up to the lettuce, I wouldn’t be able to eat anything that a slug has been on 🤢. Thank you so much again for watching my video. 😬

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge about plants. Also, it didnt cross my mind that a frog or a toad might pop out of my compost bag! The cottage garden style is tricky to get right. Its gone from a pig sty, coal shed, privy and tool shed to an idyllic jumble of flowers. To work, eveything has to be top notch - soil and plant quality and careful planning even though the end result should look random and effortless. Happy gardening!😊

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      Aw thank you so much, I’ve found it a bit more of a struggle keeping them alive. If it’s not slugs and snails it’s birds attacking them. I can’t wait to get them all planted out.

    The red trailing flowers near your front door are a show stopper. What are they?

    • @aboutthegarden
      @aboutthegarden หลายเดือนก่อน

      I really loved that one too. It’s an Ameranthus I managed to grow from seed. I’m trying to have more of that this year.😬

    Ive just started watching your videos. The word, 'clueless,' makes sense to me. I wander from one problem to another in my garden, and make a mess while I'm doing it! Your garden looks very nice. I'm going to sit back and relax whilevivwatchvyour videos😊

      Aw thank you, you’re so kind. I know what you mean, I feel like that too a lot of the time. I’m always leaving mess behind when I’m working 😬. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to watch my videos and leave all your encouraging comments. It means alot ❤️
