- I made some progress on the flagstone deck when the weather was warmer this week. I'm trying to grow mushrooms from a kit I purchased on amazon - amzn.to/3wXfsTo
Longwood Garden's acacia passage is in full bloom. We'll look at tons of amaryllis in bloom while we take a garden tour. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Thank you for taking us along! You make my days
Hi Danielle! What a gorgeous place Longwood Gardens is…..so much to see and everything is beautiful. The amaryllis flowers are incredible and I want more of them. Thank you for taking us with you…loved the tour.
Loved the beautiful display of so many varieties of Amarillos, also my Dalia tublers are storing well over winter. My first year for Dalias, they were absolutely gorgeous last Fall. Thanks for all your expertise 🌱💜
Such a lovely little combination! And the placement in front of the black and white is such a pretty little vignette
*THANK YOU for this this uplifting visit.* For gardeners, Longwood Gardens is nourishment for the soul. Especially in our long, gloomy cold N.E. winters. I love Longwood Gardens. I wish it wasn't such an ordeal to get there for a visit.
Hello Mary how are you doing,
where are you from?
Hi Danielle, Great job on your flagstone deck, it's a very welcoming entryway into to your raised bed garden. Your indoor amaryllis and paper white narcissus display continues to bring so much cheer during these winter months. I am anxious to see the double king open up! I am also interested to see how the mushroom garden will grow. Longwood Gardens display was outstanding. The pretty nymph amaryllis with the pink kalanchoe combination was a showstopper!! And the Acasia room was absolutely beautiful!! Thanks so much for sharing your special day with us, it is very much appreciated!
Beautiful the Acacia room is also my favorite. I’ve been going to Longwood since I’ve been 14 and now I’m 76!
Beautiful, especially now in winter. The apple green ones were my favorites, wrote down that name. Thanks for taking us to these gardens!
You are so inspiring to me. Thank you for all your videos.❤
Your stone walkway looks like a big flower! So pretty!
Thank you for the tour of Longwood! A visit there is on my bucket list for sure!
Loved the Amaryllis video. Like you, I have a flower 🌼 addiction! Thanks for the tour in these frigid temps.
I saw several amaryllis that I need!!! So beautiful!!❤❤. Thank you!!
What a lovely tour, thank you so much! I saw many many Amaryllis that I too would like to add to my small collection.
Beautiful!
That was so beautiful Danielle 💖I’ve never seen anything like that room with those huge vines and yellow flowers. Thank you so much for taking us along💛
Thanks for the lovely tour Danielle!!! All those gorgeous Amaryllis!!! There was one near the end which had a white edge and white striped middle of the petal. If I was a bettin' man...I would have guessed that as being 'Samba' It was one of the last ones you showed before showing us the Acacia Bloom Passage.
Cheers,
Gerard
Love the tour. I live in Alabama. I visited this garden several years ago. Wish I lived closer so I could visit more often. Thanks again.
Breath taking gorgeous 🥰
Wow😮what a beautiful place ❤Thank you!.
Thank you, Danielle, for taking us on this dreamy tour of Longwood and their beautiful amaryllis. I especially enjoyed the ethereal music near the end that reflected the look of the acacia passage. 💚
Hello, you have lovely flowers.
I grew First Love and Sweet Nymph this year which are very similar to one of the blooms you showed; I love the Nymph series Amaryllis - sturdy stems and long lasting double flowers; Thanks so much for your beautiful tour!
Danielle, I love everything you've been doing! I'm a volunteer horticulture assistant at Longwood and have often thought about sharing videos of the work I do there. Love it! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Ha ! You don't look like someone presenting in 9 degrees ! Here in Metro Phx, AZ, our current cold-streak may hit a low of 33 early Thursday AM...but who's complaining ! Lol. We are getting ready for season already here. LOVE those raised beds ! And that Acacia Passage is INCREDIBLE ! I grow several native acacia species here... Great share :)
The amaryllis are beautiful-both yours and the ones at Longwood Gardens. I purchased a mushroom grow kit years tears ago when I was reaching third grade. We followed the directions on the package and ended up with lots of mushrooms. I was too nervous to let my students eat any, but our school custodian took them home and enjoyed every one. I hope you have good luck with yours.
What a treat to view all of these beautiful plants in winter.
Danielle, your filming is also excellent , and the accompanying music through the passage ! 🌸❤️🇨🇦
Thank you so much for the tour. Loved it! The amaryllis at 803 was Samba - my favorite 😊
Thank you!
How beautiful!
Thanks Danielle what a wonderful relaxing tour. I loved all the Amaryllis but can’t find varieties right now. Longfield is winding down and that’s where all mine come from.
Those vines were spectacular…. Can Spring be far away💞
Thank you for the gorgeous tour Danielle. I too think it’s Red Pearl. Mine just opened.
These tours of things in bloom ,is medicine for my soul . Thank you.
Thank you…that was lovely!
stones are really pretty, looks like the start of a flower~
I kind of like it as it is...a landing doorstep if you will...
BTW, I am Nanny to 6!
I received an amaryllis as a gift three years ago - each year it grew with leaves no flower - this year (yr 3) I realized I put it outside for summer, replanted in Autumn, but did not put it in dormancy🤷 it grew tall leaves and I decided to give it one last chance, next year, since I missed that step - it must've heard me because low and behold it's going to flower hopefully by Valentine's day👍👏🎉I'm excited to see what color it will be - this year I'll make sure to do the dormancy step - thanks for the tips!!
I tried the mushroom kit, it was a gift. I loved it. So much fun to watch, and two yummy meals in the end.
This really makes me want to get a membership to Longwood! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Hello Elizabeth how are you doing,
where are you from?
What a feast for the eyes and soul. Dreamy!
Hi from Melbourne Australia. We have acacia or wattle as we call it everywhere at the end of winter, in many gardens and hundreds in the local parks. The cinnamon variety is my favourite due to the beautiful bark. It’s just stunning and it was interesting to see it used in this way as I’ve only ever seen it as a tree before. Thank you
Wowzer ! Thanks for sharing such an amazing experience... I'm jealous.
Your amaryllis are beautiful! Thanks for taking us on a tour…beautiful!!
Nature, the friend...
Love the tours! Everything you video inspires me and your tutorials are so understandable. You have been busy despite the frigid temperatures…a dedicated professional gardener you are indeed. Your collection of Amaryllises is impressive and your home looks so inviting.
Mushroom kits are so fun!
Oh so thankful for the tour of the garden! Also of your stunning amaryllis collection ❤ can’t wait to see all the new changes outside! ..soon!
So funny, my friend and I were going to go to LG on Saturday but changed our minds due to frigid weather 🤤
Thanks for the sneak peak... maybe next weekend 😉
Such a beautiful tour. Thanks
Hello Andrea how are you doing,
where are you from?
Wow. Tfs
Thanks for a great video😁
Just beautiful!
Beautiful, I thought I had enough amaryllis until I seen all of them.
So very very beautiful my friend
Beautiful!! I was looking at the bulbs and just saw the Terra cotta color one right before you said that!!
Trying a mushroom kit also it’s called pink oyster mushroom and I just received it so I better get it going. Wonderful to hear you had. Thanks.
Beautiful! I grew ‘Sweet Nymph’. Love it!
That was a treat! I am slowly adding Amaryllis, one bulb at a time. I think a burgandy one will be next.
Oh my! Those amaryllis!!!! You are so blessed to live close to Longwood Gardens! Yes I believe that is “Red Pearl” I love it’s deep velvety red color I forced two of them this winter. That “Doublet” amaryllis is one I want to purchase. Check out Laura’s video in her greenhouse in “Garden Answer” She has like three Doublet amaryllis in bloom together….it’s stunning. ( though she was not sure of the name ) love all your videos! Did someone say amaryllis on sale???LOL!
Fantasy Dream is my #1. Love that lime green color and Amadeus Candy. Thanks for taking us to this stunning garden. Do you grow ornamental cabbage, primrose or cyclamen for winter color?
I agree fantasy dream is amazing! I seem to always kill cyclamen. Any tips?
I was shocked with the first display of Pretty Nymph variety at the Garden. I am a huge fan of succulents, especially Kalanchoe. I hope that is what we see, as I would hate to be incorrect. I used to grow a few colours of Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana, but tragically, I had to work out of town for a few months. My friend who was an "expert" plant enthusiast killed all of my plants and even took out some Amaryllis that were "summering" outdoors.
I have always wanted to try out growing mushrooms but never took the plunge. I think those kits are a wonderful method though.
I only discovered your videos recently but I have been learning so much! Just want to say thank you very much for these informative sessions, and I will be taking a lot of these tips on board for my garden growing :-)
Oh boy...I would need a scarf on and earmuffs and gloves at 9 degrees....you are a brave soul
Nice👍👍
I purchased a shiritaki mushroom kit for Christmas and we are enjoying its 2nd flush of mushrooms 🍄
Loving the amaryllis show!
So many projects so little time. Stones look real good. I tried mushrooms and some work and some don't. They are persnickety growers. Etsy has a wide variety.
Gorgeous
Your amaryllis are beautiful! I was inspired by you and now have a collection of 22 bulbs! So far, my favorites are Gervaise, Picotee, Samba, Spotlight, Pink Star, Marquise, Tinkerbelle and red lion (I bought this one at Home Depot and it had 3 stalks!)
I bought Picotee this year and am anxious to see it bloom. It should open soon!
@@lindaannb Mine just started blooming and it's beautiful! Love the white with the red edging around the flowers. Stunning and classic.
Tried one of those kits about a month ago, and it worked amazingly! Just gotta make sure you’re keeping it moist, I had to spray it more than twice a day. The mushrooms were delicious though!!
I can't wait to see your hardscape completed. Great idea to get that done sooner vs. later. In my area, Lowe's rents trucks for four hours or for a day, to help homeowners haul their large purchases if they don't have a truck. If you have some willing family and friends, it could reduce the number of trips you have to make to at least get the hardscape to your property. I hauled concrete pavers in my car two years ago and it made a mess and seemed to prolong the project. It would have been so much easier to get the materials here all at once and be able to work on the project a few hours here or there vs. a lot of heavy lifting in one day.
*Your Amaryllis are breathtaking and inspirational.* I grew them for years and then gave it up. A lot of work storing the bulbs properly and having a cool spot for them. But your love for them is prompting me to maybe start again. Did you ever buy the bulbs from Longfield Gardens Nursery? They are addictive!
I’m addicted too! Yes I love Longfield!
Oh so many beautiful amaryllis! I need to up my game of putting more than 1 in a pot. I love the look of all those blooms!
Have you ever tried “chipping” a bulb to make babies? When is the time to do that? While it is still dormant?
You seem as eager as me for Spring!
I bought a similar irregular concrete stone at lowes. I laid a lot of it buying 8-10 at each visit. They have now discontinued it.
I tried a mushroom kit last year, it started really well then suddenly stopped growing after about 10 days and I couldn’t get it going again. I think getting the humidity right is really key and that’s tricky in the winter!
Beautiful display of plants! Do you know what that one is called @ 6:45 The leaves look tropical dark green and with the clusters of bright pink flowers. Gorgeous plant!
Hi there. I recently discovered you on TH-cam and you have inspired me to start a flower garden. I like annuals and I would like to start from seeds. Any books you would recommend? I thought you did mention one, on one of your videos but I didn’t retain the information. Thank you and again, you are doing a great job
I’ll be visiting Longwood later this month. Subscribe for more garden videos! 🎉
Watching now...but still laughing about the Harmony Hills reference to your snap dragon video.
Oh, what lovely amaryllis…one that you weren’t sure of might be Double Nymph?
Thank you, Danielle for the tour. How long can amaryllis bulbs be kept in storage after they arrive from online vendors such as Longfield? How should they be stored?
Hi Vanessa! I’ve held some for three months. I stored them in our addition in the brown bags they come in. It’s about 65 in that room. It’s harder to hold the southern hemisphere bulbs since they want to grow immediately. The bulbs from holland seem to hold better for me.
what is the tiny fuzzy button flower please?
Just a side note I can’t get legend light pink snapdragons in Canada
Do we have a link to the pavers?
Question: my Red Lion Amaryllis just finished blooming. Large bulb. Two flower stalks. I would like to follow your instructions for this year and keep it alive to bloom next year. Anyway, I notice the bulb, the "top 1st layer" seems mushy now but the bulb underneath that feels nice and hard. Do you think the bulb is beginning to rot? Also, with my bulb and two flower stalks, I got leaves only about 2" in height. I thought that was weird. Thank for your help!
Hi Susan! When you say top layer- do you mean the brown scales? You can remove the brown scales if that’s what your referencing. Are you on Instagram? If so please feel free to send me a picture.
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm I will send an IG pic tomorrow. Thanks a bunch!
Are the stones concrete or true stones?
Where do you get your tall, narrow amaryllis pots?
Great question. I was wondering that as well.
Hi friends! I purchase them from Kens Gardens. Sadly, they have not sold them the past two years. They have grey ones that are taller.
$4.59 per stone?!?! No way!!!!
Great 😊 place to get married maybe?
My mushroom kit was a complete dud
