Indian here.we don't decorate for fall but I love Americans very much.i love love love to watch your fall decor.we here are still very hot and humid.we will actually start planting for winters in couple of weeks as we don't get snow.
We Australians do not decorate for fall ( autumn) at all. We just cry a little as summer is over. Halloween is getting bigger here each year. Unlike my front verandah, not many aussies decorate the outside of their homes, maybe a little more decorate for Christmas. We do not have the decorations in the stores as you do. Sadly it’s too expensive for me to ship anything from the US. Lol I am the crazy verandah decorator lady in my area, but I must say many people walk by and drive by to have a look. I love your content Linda. ☺️🇦🇺🍷🐨
In South Africa, we could feed a whole orphanage with a wagon full of pumpkins. I think our monkeys would think it is 'Christmas' if they stumbled on your garden decorations. Such a beautiful selection.
The French do like to have a beautiful Cinderella like pumpkin in their house. They use acorns and dry leaves too. my granny is a genius at natural decor while my mom will always cook the gorgeous pumpkins she buys. When I moved to the US I drove to all the pumpkin competitions. Pumpkins are my favorite things. I have friendships that started because I saw pumpkins growing at neighbors and I struck a conversation.
Linda, those white pumpkins are great! In central Europe, we have a beautiful autumn, but Halloween and pumpkin decorations are not super popular yet. Some children collect candy, and there are some fall decorations in public places. Over the years there have been more and more of them around, but I don't know of places where there is such a choice of sizes and number of pumpkin varieties to buy as you have at your place. In Poland in November we have holidays during which we remember loved ones who have died, so it's more a time of peace and reflection. People gather at graves in cemeteries, light candles and very often put huge chrysanthemums on graves. In a way, this is a cultural conflict, as younger generations like the cheerful atmosphere of ghosts and skeletons while some find it hard to reconcile this with the memory of loved ones who have passed away.
The New England states are breathtaking during fall & have been fortunate to visit a few times in October. Talking about beautiful mums, too, they stay so pretty there.
Hi Linda in Melbourne Australia no one decorates for autumn and pumpkins are only used baked as a yummy vegetable with a Sunday roast leg of lamb.Enjoy your fall decorating 😀
Certainly, in Canada we celebrate the harvest and have a national holiday the second Monday in October which is when we celebrate our Thanksgiving 🍁🍂 It's a wonderful time with the colouring of the autumn leaves and an abundance of pumpkins of all colour, squash and ruby red apples!!!
How I love the word "pumpkinizing". It is not possible to translate it into german, because it is called "Kürbis". I always thought, that Americans are a little bit crazy with their pumpkinmania😘, but I also love them. Here in Wiesbaden is a big housing area for american soldiers and their families. I love driving through it during fall and christmas season because of the imaginative decorations. Love from Andrea, Wiesbaden, Germany
Last year some friends and I visited a pumpkin patch in Half Moon Bay, Ca. I bought a midsized sugar pumpkin to bake a pie with. I kept the seeds and planted 5 of them. I got pumpkins and one of them is in my patio right now making. The whole backyard bright festive. I bought a couple yellow flowered kalancho and potted them. In a shady yard a couple pops of yellow and an orange pumpkin with my red pelargoniums look festive.
Ireland gave Halloween to the world. It is one of the four great Celtic festivals of our calendar,a time of harvesting and getting ready for the long dark winter as well as communing with the spirits of those who have gone before us.
If you dry the apple gourd you can drill a hole in it to make an adorable birdhouse. Use the appropriate size bit for opening for wrens or chickadees.I also drill 3 small holes in the bottom for drainage if rain gets in. At the top I put a hole on either side of the stem and thread a piece of either wire or leather shoelace for hanging. I use a screwdriver to break up the seeds inside and shake them out of the large entrance hole. The birds love them.
The eastern shore of Maryland is famous for growing gigantic pumpkins. Love your selections. For the past few years I've been gravitating towards the blue/green ones and the warty orange/dark green ones. Last year the squirrels tried to bite into the warty ones but gave up and left them alone. So many great choices and you can not have too many.
Ah Fall, my favorite, too! I spied the lush Bittersweet! Some years ago I would scout out wild bittersweet, then remove the leaves & hang upside down to dry. Then I would sell hundreds of dried bittersweet swags at the Bishop Hill, IL Heritage Fall Festival. Back in those days the peddlers were expected to dress in 1840 costumes. Loved those piles of gourds & pumpkins! I noticed the prices on those pumpkins: wow, they are about 2Xs higher than here in northern IL!
I do a a good amount of “Pumpkinizing” inside and out , mostly with fake Pumpkins 🎃 that I had for a long time , they do very well in the elements also . Great garden center , love 💕 all the varieties of pumpkins and gourds
The pumpkins were amazing,I had no idea of the scope of varieties,wow! And I love that Zuni fetish strand,it’s a very good one. I have an admirable collection of fetishes here at my house,they are masterpieces!
Thank you for pointing out the “desert willow ?” . Living in the mid Atlantic and never getting out your way I wouldn’t know what that tree is and it is so pretty in bloom ! I love trees with light willow like leaves
The green pumpkins reminiscent of swans are beautiful! One bonus of squirrels is a nice sapling tree, and a privet they planted in an area that I can’t dig in easily. I think they are actually helping landscape, lol. I also have several baby Japanese maples that I’ll eventually dig up and pot. I’m not sure if the squirrels did that too. I hear Japanese maples are very hard to propagate, so that’s a win.
It is impressive that you have outfits years old but more impressive that you still fit into them. Do you ever eat? I can still fit into clothes I got in April. Ha! Anxiously awaiting your placement of the pumpkins! I see OKC just got a new native plant nursery so I’m thinking another trip is upcoming. I loved Bricks and bought several plants when there. Sadly, living in a rural forest finding quality nurseries is a chore. I usually drive to Dallas 2 hrs for plant shopping. So, what’s another four hours?
Lovely segment as always. Those pumpkins are amazing. In Ireland we mainly have the orange ones and last year we had some cute little gourds. Halloween was invented in Ireland would you believe ? We wouldn't really decorate in September but Halloween is huge in Ireland now - I think we have been very influenced by American films such as Hocus Pocus , Scream etc and we have upped our game. I don't think pumpkins would last two months outdoors in Ireland - too damp. Looking forward to watching you style your purchases. Hi to Stewart .
The adorable little wooden pumpkin stand in the beginning gave me an idea. Children could sell hot spiced cider at a festival or pumpkin carving street party. Between the kale and the pumpkins , the squirrels would have a field day. I have so many I have named my little home Critter Cottage! I did find some pretty realistic cinderella pumpkins at Walmart this year. Perfect for weathering the squirrels and elements in the garden. Can't wait to see you style your haul.
I have a pumpkin kitchen. No joke. All year long. The walls are painted a soft green and I have never grown tired of it. I use orange dishes. My grandpa always grew jack o lanterns for us cousins and it’s a nod to him in a way.
I love the weird pumpkins. My husband is always agog with what I bring home.😅 I actually have two that have survived the full year in my climate controlled home, and are ready for this fall! Thanks for the inspo!
Love the autumn season. Even love the word Autumn. Unfortunately the season in Calgary is too short before the snow flies. ❤☹️ Nevertheless we do like to decorate for the season with pumpkins, guards, ornamental corn, dry leaves, evergreen cones, dried flowers, wheat My mom would pick up leaves on her walks put them into picture frames with glass and make either silhouettes or an arrangement. I find myself decorating now just with gold or brown pillows and throws, candles and scents that are more spicy. A twig with beautiful dried leaves on it take center stage. Fill my large pottery bowl with pine or spruce cones, add leaves and antler fells etc. a wooden bowl or basket on the island filled with apples and seasonal fruit or vegetables. I bring most of my outdoor plants outside for the summer so now they get a good shower and spray( to get rid of unwanted pests). I’m saying all this as I’m sitting by the lake taking in the last bit of summer😃.
Hi I think you may have got yourself belt in Salida. Great area. Love all the pumpkins. I’m going to put a few faux pumpkins scattered in my front garden. The squirrels will not be happy. I usually do put a real pumpkin some where they can nibble.
Fun plant & pumpkin shopping trip! 🎃🌱🍂🐿 A red leafed Japanese Maple would be beautiful against your brick lined steps...and I'm sure you will find the perfect tree to go there eventually. Here in eastern Canada, pumpkins will be coming out on the steps with the hay bales and chrysanthemums, just in time for our Thanksgiving . on October 9th, a real harvest festival of giving thanks and at the most beautiful and colourful time of year. It always seems to be sunny on that weekend too. What we don't tend to buy as much of here, I think, are the "one use" very thematic dishes and decorations that they sell at TJMAX (US) / Homesense (CA)....for every Holiday...
❤❤❤🎃🎃🎃👻👻👻🍁🍂I don’t buy as many pumpkins as I used to. Like annuals I place them strategically. Too expensive otherwise ! Happy fall to you and Stewart!
In Canada we do a lot to decorate for Fall/Thanksgiving and Halloween. Our Thanksgiving is in October not November as our Harvest is earlier than most places in the US.
I'm looking forward to decorating for fall. At the nursery near me where the selection of pumpkins is best, they sell by the pound and it gets VERY pricey.
Spent my Sunday the exact same way, at my favorite garden center buying all the fall things. Even though my planters are still beautiful with summer fluff. I’ve already secured my fall and winter planting; started all of my fall/ winter seeds; I’m so ready for deep fall!
I planted a tiger eye. For two years it had a beautiful fall color. Next year it was sending up new babies all around. I dug it up it is no longer in my yard. Laura at Garden Answer has one that she needs to tame.
Hi Linda, just love it when you do seasonal decorations. We here in South Africa mostly only decorate for Xmas. I've noticed that the Halloween trend has also become a favourite trend here, but not all of us are into that yet.
Such a great selection. Way too early for pumpkins for us. They would be mushy by Halloween. The mums look very nice. Too bad we did t see the colours up close. Fabulous selection of pumpkins though! 🧡🌾🎃
Hi from Annie what a wonderful display of pumpkins fantastic place, the lovely chap that was sitting with you at the start of the video there is good looking you looked nice next to him could pass for a couple you did blush a bit while sitting next to him. Those lovely blue junipers they are a great addition to any garden and yes it would look fab in those far corners of your backyard.I have several junipers in my front yard they are the dark green type. I also have a large Norfolk Pine as well those type that you see at the beach I have kept them all trimmed nicely Cheers.
Love to see all the plantings for the fall. Yes, I do put pumpkins in my flower area,and raised gardens, etc.. 🎃🧡💛 I just love seeing all the different pumpkins. Absolutely beautiful. I wish I lived closer to Oklahoma City. Sending hugs, love, prayers, and kindness with positive thoughts.🍁💛🧡 🎃 🧡💛🍁
Can’t wait to decorate my planters and window boxes. For inside, I use my collection of indoor pumpkins including my velvet ones ( gold and Blue) I made last year.
I'd have put that light green big acorn looking pumpkin in the cart! You called it a turban, so dramatic looking. Thanks for the shopping trip! linda from NE
Decorating our homes, here in the U.K., in autumn (fall) decor really isn’t a thing. I definitely do decorate the outside of my house for Halloween (on the day) so the local kids who go Trick or Treating at least have one house to go to! 😂 Obviously, Halloween came from us but you folks went on to make it your own 💚🧡
One of my favorite YTers is Cliff from Castle Hill Gardens, and he’s in England. For years he grew beautiful pumpkins and gourds, primarily for his grandchildren to enjoy at Halloween. He has cut back on those now that the kids are college age. So, there are definitely some folks in the UK who decorate with them. After all, I believe it started as a Celtic holiday and with turnips instead of pumpkins?
@@Gigi-fv9ky - that’s right…it was a Celtic tradition. I think because we also celebrate a thing called Bonfire Night on 5th November where we remember a man called Guy Fawkes’ plot to blow up the King and Parliament being stopped, that we tend to not think about Halloween so much. Bonfire Night has fireworks and huge bonfires and food etc…one big party! To be honest Christmas is our big celebration here mainly.
What a fun place to shop! I'm going out to my favorite nursery today as well to look for some fall color and pumpkins. One thing I haven't been able to find in my area are the really large ornamental kale and cabbage. The oversized ones are so unique and make for an spectacular container arrangement. I love your outfit - the boots are perfect with the suede skirt!
I really enjoyed going through the nursery. I planted some guards. I will use those and add a couple pumpkins and maybe some mums. I am in the process of getting flooring and updating my house, so minimal. Last year I had hay bales,( which I used in my Ruth Stout garden) and several Mum's, pumpkins and guards. I enjoy decorating for all holidays.
Do you know Jarrahdale pumpkins are native to Australia. I am amused at how crazy Americans are for autumn and pumpkins Love watching you from Melbourne, Australia Linda.
I’m in Australia and we definitely don’t pay much attention to fall(Autumn) at all. We generally ignore Halloween, some people do a minimum trick or treat thing but it isn’t an Australian thing. I love watching all the American TH-camrs celebrating fall. I wish we did Thanksgiving though. I also live in a,part of Australia where it gets really hot in summer so I know what you are going through.
Australia was not colonised by puritans. Australia as a large country has variety of seasons some without ‘autumn etc eg tropical. Quite different culture to US. Aust is a multicultural and secular society
PSA: the Tiger eye sumac sprouts horribly everywhere from long roots. It dies back very randomly in the winter ( zone 6b) and then you are left with dead bits for small trees... I would never plant them again but now everyone says that they are a signature piece of my front yard and don't I even think about taking them out!
I was just thinking that maybe you won't have as many problems with squirrels as you did at your other house. Here in Canada we do decorate for fall with pumpkins, corn, gourds and hay bales and I think it is much easier because our Thanksgiving is closer to Halloween.
Hello Linda, not sure everyone decorates for fall. I used to live in CA I don't remember it being like that. But then when I moved to Ohio I see people love to decorate for the seasons probably because there are 4 seasons here. I don't decorate outside because one time I put a nice arrangement out there and someone came and stole. 😢 So I decorate inside not very much because I live in a small condo. Loved your outfit. Also enjoyed shipping with you.
Naw, fall decor and Halloween are big in Canada. It's started here too with the pumpkins in the markets. We've had pop up Halloween stores since the beginning of August
Indian here.we don't decorate for fall but I love Americans very much.i love love love to watch your fall decor.we here are still very hot and humid.we will actually start planting for winters in couple of weeks as we don't get snow.

Spray your outside pumpkins with a clear sealant it really helps keep the squirrels from nibbling on them

I have a wrought iron scarecrow that I light in fairy lights at night. His structure in the fall garden is stunning.
Linda is an incredible speaker. She really never makes mistakes and just speaks so clearly and with great interest!
she makes heaps of mistakes 😅 but she is natural and its all 'live' takes and she is the first to admit it.
My Swiss friends shop on Black Friday even though they don’t have Thanksgiving!

You and Stewart are so cute. Enjoy watching y’all.
New Zealand is slowly taking on Halloween 🎉
We Canadians go bonkers over fall decor as well, Hallowe’en too. Both are likely as big as Christmas.
As a Canadian, I found that very interesting. On the Prairies at least, there’s some fall decor, less Halloween but Christmas is big. 🇨🇦
I enjoy listening to you and Stewart shop. Y'all make a fun team,
Yes i love to style my window boxes. Have already done some baby pumpkins
Actually, Halloween originated in Ireland! 😄 I love fall decorating, especially "pumpkinizing."
I say Scotland🏴 but really the Celtic people
Its not obnoxious to be childlike ❤ wonderful to see adults play!
I never met a pumpkin I didn't like!
The green pumpkins reminiscent of swans are beautiful! One bonus of squirrels is a nice sapling tree, and a privet they planted in an area that I can’t dig in easily. I think they are actually helping landscape, lol. I also have several baby Japanese maples that I’ll eventually dig up and pot. I’m not sure if the squirrels did that too.

I came here to say the same. Halloween started as Samhain in Ireland. They carved turnips rather than pumpkins. 🎃 👻 🇮🇪
Love going to a garden center in the Fall. Can’t wait to go as soon as my husband gets out of the hospital.
Love this video. Always decorate my outdoor planters. Love Fall.

Those ARE some gorgeous unique pumpkin varieties. Here in PA, we seem to only have the Jack-o-Lantern ones ☹️
Such a great selection. Way too early for pumpkins for us. They would be mushy by Halloween. The mums look very nice. Too bad we did t see the colours up close. Fabulous selection of pumpkins though! 🧡🌾🎃

Decorating our homes, here in the U.K., in autumn (fall) decor really isn’t a thing. I definitely do decorate the outside of my house for Halloween (on the day) so the local kids who go Trick or Treating at least have one house to go to! 😂 Obviously, Halloween came from us but you folks went on to make it your own 💚🧡
One of my favorite YTers is Cliff from Castle Hill Gardens, and he’s in England. For years he grew beautiful pumpkins and gourds, primarily for his grandchildren to enjoy at Halloween. He has cut back on those now that the kids are college age. So, there are definitely some folks in the UK who decorate with them. After all, I believe it started as a Celtic holiday and with turnips instead of pumpkins?

I think because we also celebrate a thing called Bonfire Night on 5th November where we remember a man called Guy Fawkes’ plot to blow up the King and Parliament being stopped, that we tend to not think about Halloween so much. Bonfire Night has fireworks and huge bonfires and food etc…one big party! To be honest Christmas is our big celebration here mainly.
Love this nursery!
What a fun place to shop! I'm going out to my favorite nursery today as well to look for some fall color and pumpkins. One thing I haven't been able to find in my area are the really large ornamental kale and cabbage. The oversized ones are so unique and make for an spectacular container arrangement. I love your outfit - the boots are perfect with the suede skirt!
I really enjoyed going through the nursery. I planted some guards. I will use those and add a couple pumpkins and maybe some mums.
I am in the process of getting flooring and updating my house, so minimal.
Last year I had hay bales,( which I used in my Ruth Stout garden) and several Mum's, pumpkins and guards. I enjoy decorating for all holidays.
Canadians here in BC go huge in decorating for Halloween. They even have fireworks. (Former Californian emigrated to Canada)
Do you know Jarrahdale pumpkins are native to Australia. I am amused at how crazy Americans are for autumn and pumpkins Love watching you from Melbourne, Australia Linda.
Fun Fun Fun👏👏👏can’t wait to see you decorate 👏👏💜
I’m in Australia and we definitely don’t pay much attention to fall(Autumn) at all. We generally ignore Halloween, some people do a minimum trick or treat thing but it isn’t an Australian thing. I love watching all the American TH-camrs celebrating fall. I wish we did Thanksgiving though. I also live in a,part of Australia where it gets really hot in summer so I know what you are going through.
Interesting comment, thank you!
Australia was not colonised by puritans. Australia as a large country has variety of seasons some without ‘autumn etc eg tropical. Quite different culture to US. Aust is a multicultural and secular society
Love your outfits.
PSA: the Tiger eye sumac sprouts horribly everywhere from long roots. It dies back very randomly in the winter ( zone 6b) and then you are left with dead bits for small trees... I would never plant them again but now everyone says that they are a signature piece of my front yard and don't I even think about taking them out!
This is amazing, love it. Looks beautiful
Hi from Annie forgot to say love that necklace it is a beauty goes well with your top too. Cheers.
I was just thinking that maybe you won't have as many problems with squirrels as you did at your other house. Here in Canada we do decorate for fall with pumpkins, corn, gourds and hay bales and I think it is much easier because our Thanksgiving is closer to Halloween.
Linda, I have that same skirt in brown and also in gray…Isaac Mizrahi for Target. They are classics! ❤
Hello Linda, not sure everyone decorates for fall. I used to live in CA I don't remember it being like that. But then when I moved to Ohio I see people love to decorate for the seasons probably because there are 4 seasons here. I don't decorate outside because one time I put a nice arrangement out there and someone came and stole. 😢 So I decorate inside not very much because I live in a small condo. Loved your outfit. Also enjoyed shipping with you.
Naw, fall decor and Halloween are big in Canada. It's started here too with the pumpkins in the markets. We've had pop up Halloween stores since the beginning of August
