- Thanks for growing with us!
In this video we are taking you on a full tour of our entire garden in late August. The weather has been hot and a bit damp this summer so there are plants looking incredible and some that have seen better days. For such a long video it would have been very difficult to label every plant so instead we have broken the video up in to chapters. This way if you have a question about a particular plant you can reference what spot it was in.
Our garden features many Proven Winners plants, as well as David Austin roses, and some plants grown from seed.

Wow! Thank you!
You guys are amazing! Complimenting each other with your shared gardening knowledge!!! Gorgeous gardens!!!! Love watching you both & your obvious enthusiasm !!! Keep it up!!!!
Thanks so much!
So lovely right😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
The variety of your trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals is amazing,,, what a treat that garden tour was,,, Thank You Eric and Christopher
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much.
Great way to enjoy my coffee. I love the variety of color and plants! That vanilla strawberry hydrangea is gorgeous!
It really is! It’s the first thing you see when you drive up our street too.
Do you prune this plant in the spring?
Could the two of you please do a video of how you take care of your roses?
We will definitely be doing that in Spring. Later in the season I do a little bit of prep to put them to bed for winter.
Absolutely gorgeous. You should send pics of your garden to Laura at “ Garden Answer”. She has a huge following and does a series where she has viewers send in pics of their gardens
haha we actually did that once and she shared us!
My jaw is on the floor. What an incredible garden! You all have mastered the art of placement and layering! Love your unique collection of trees and all the pairings. Outstanding!!
Thank you so much!
Fabulous tour guys! A lot of planning and work went into your beautiful gardens ❤️ I loved that you named each plant, I made lots of notes 😉 I would love to see how you plant & prune for fall as well as how you get your garden ready for winter.
That’s m you so much! We will definitely be filming the process as we tuck the garden in for winter.
What a completely beautiful yard you have. i am amazed!
Thank you!
Beautifully done.
You two are so kind to one another. Good video
Thank you so much 😀
Your garden and yard is so beautiful. That grass looks like carpet 😊
Thanks!!
The best thing about this video is naming every plant. I also enjoy the love you share in growing and displaying your large gardens. I can tell you spend hours going over each part of the garden to improve them.
We definitely spend a lot of time
Thanks for taking the time to go through and name all the plants! So appreciated! 😊😊😊
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching
Love, love your garden. I watch a number of gardening channels on TH-cam and your filming is one of the best. Beautifully done !!!
Thanks so much 😊. We are getting the hang of this...its all new!
Guys, that's a HUGE amount of plantings, I have a very LARGE acreage yard, but you truly excel in cramming things together in a harmoniously manner, sooo many outstanding plants and combinations to enjoy! Ohhhh, and I LOVE your 'Moffat Blue' upright juniper, I have several of these planted out in the garden, they are slow compact growers that keep a lovely blue coloring all winter.
Wow, thank you!
Your gardens have taken my breath away, Thank you so very much. I too am 5b in Colorado. Such inspiration.
Wonderful! It's amazing how different the weather can be while still being in 5b.
Yesterday was my lucky day.......I found you guys!!! I have never seen such a Beautiful garden in my 70some years life. I am thrilled to death with how you tour the gardens. You give wonderful detail of plants that helps the rest of us. I will be forever grateful to you both for the joy you have given me. Thank you from my heart. Honestly, you have the most amazing garden...... it is perfection. I know I will learn so much from you. Thank you so very much for sharing. oxoxox PS. Your plant placement is so thoughtful for softness, height and movement is fabulous. Working with structures and views is where your artistry comes in. You can be so proud. You have every right to be proud.
Oh my goodness thank you so much. I’m so happy that our little garden is able to bring so much happiness! We have some fun projects coming up that I hope you like.
You should ask Hort tube garden influencer about your tree staking. He is so knowledgeable with Facts!
Good idea. He’s great
I stumbled on to you guys a few months ago, and I'm so glad I did. I'm also 5b, but just across the border in eastern Ontario, so everything you plant is very relevant. So much fun and knowledge...it's great!!
That is awesome!
That’s a beautiful landscape and that strawberry hydrangea is the most gorgeous one I’ve ever seen too.
Thank you!
I never thought to deadhead my early blooms from Bobo. I may try that next year to see what happens.
You have such a lovely, lush garden.
Thank you!
Gorgeous! I was looking for gardening inspiration for my new house and this gives me some great ideas! I love how you introduced and showcased each plant. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad!
You'll want to use a thinner stake for that spruce....trees don't like monumental stakes, they will adjust their normal growth patterns and it will stress. Use a round tall bamboo 1 to 1-1/2" at most, it will last for as long as the tree will need it, then you can just remove it or saw it off, and the root will not get damaged. With the metal stake the roots will grow around it and you will cause damage once you remove it. The larger diameter the trunk gets, the more sturdier the tree will become, however, if it's a wheeping type, the tip may try to revert down if the tree has competition from other trees and shrubs around it, or if it's a fastigiate type, it will grow straight up once it's a little larger and stronger. Keep the bamboo support on it for at least 2-3 years. Trap the Groundhog and relocate it, or dispatch it, most States have no limitation on Groundhogs. If you don't remove it it will continue to do damage in your garden...it's a buffet station for it. Since you border a wildlife area you will have recurring issues...fence or solar electric fence are an option....2-string is all you need for deer, raccoon, and groundhog. 1 string at 8" and another at 35" for deer. Bait it with peanut butter at the beginning(on aluminum foil wrapped around the string), once they get zapped they will never come back, they learn quickly to respect the wire and deer won't even jump over it even though they easily could, but you need to make sure you do the baiting process. I've had it in my garden for 5 years, no problem, and we see deer all the time, and no more groundhogs or raccoons either. The nice thing about this method, the 2-wire system looks less intrusive around a beautiful garden..we are on 2 acres.
Wow thank you! I will definitely look into a smaller stake. The one we are using currently is pretty thick and ugly. We haven't seen that groundhog in awhile...we are actually considering taking out the elderberry anyways...it really hasn't done that well regardless of being mauled by the critters!!
All around lovely! Incredible variety of color, shape, height, and textures. All beds plump full feels so impactful. Well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
Guys, this is breathtaking. How much acreage do you have? The plant placement choices (color, foliage and textures) are so on point and intentional. Superb job and congratulations on such a classy garden.
Thank you so much! We have just a bit over a half an acre.
Subscriber from Columbia MD. I am now so inspired to start developing a front yard garden. Running out of space in my backyard. 😂😂😂 Thanks Guys.
You can do it!
The vanilla strawberry is STUNNING 🤩
The color is coming in really nice too
A wonderful selection of plants, beautifully positioned to complement each other. I grow R. Gertrude Jeckyll here in UK as a short climber, and she is indeed thorny. But, oh, the scent, colour, health, and form is outstanding - the scent will waft to some distance.
It is definitely one of the strongest fragrances. We have a rose friend that made jam from Gertrude. It was delicious.
This is why I love the gays they come through when it comes to fashion, decor, garden/landscaping, etc. They just go that extra mile.
Haha love that
Wow! I just found your channel and am subscribing immediately. Beautiful gardens. Tons of inspiration I would like to duplicate. I was scribbling down plants to buy. Great eye(s) for combination plantings. Thanks for the detailed tour!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Just amazing.....being in hot meditteranean climate your garder is pure heaven 😁
Ooh I wouldn’t mind some of that weather
You have a gorgeous garden. How do you keep your grass so green/healthy? Just beautiful-Thank you for sharing.
We have a great company that fertilizes four times a season and we are pretty diligent about general maintenance.
I never thought of compost for mulch. I love that idea
It has been wonderful
Hi to my favourite gardener’s. Love your garden, you’ve both got great taste. ❤
Thank you so much 😊.
That was quite the tour guys. Enjoyed every minute of it! Loving those Sublime Hydrangeas and Lido.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much for watching. Believe it or not we filmed the entire tour twice...the first time we didn't know Eric's microphone had died until we were almost done!
Wow your garden is coming together beautifully!!! I'm hoping eventually your vids can be captured in 4k to better see all the beauties in more detail in the future 😍
I realized in our last video that my upload size is one notch below 4k! We have our September tour coming and I am going to do 4k!
The entire garden seems to be on steroids...it's beautiful 😍 ❤❤❤
Haha thanks
I have never seen a more beautiful hydrangea than the strawberry vanilla. I have never seen one at my nursery. The backyard is breathtaking! The green landscaping behind your white fence on the east border is stunning!!!! Also behind the fire pit area!!! I would love to see all that green behind my home . All the visuals with none of the work!!! This is a labor of love for sure. Absolutely magical little sanctuary.
Thank you!! It is definitely a labor of love!
Gorgeous gorgeous guys! Will watching this video 2 or 3 more times ,I need to take lots of notes
You're the best! Thank you!
Love you guys learning so many gardening ideas from you both. Thank you.
Our pleasure!
Spectacular. Your gardens are lovely.
Thank you so much 😊
My God, your garden is gorgeous!!!!
Thank you!
Your yard is by far extreme and one of the best I see on TH-cam. I have learned so much from your post. Thank you so much for sharing your passion.
Wow, thank you! We love gardening and are really enjoying this new adventure on TH-cam.
You two have a BEAUTIFUL garden! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks so much
Just watched this video and I think you two are amazing!! Your yard is an oasis...who needs a vacation spot when you have this??!! The variety you have going on here is a perfect mixture of evergreen to perennial to annuals. Omg....Can't wait for the 2024 summer tour! Thank you both for sharing your love for gardening!
Thank you so much!
This video has given me so much inspiration. I'm redoing a new flower bed in the front of my house and I of all the different plants, trees and flowers you used!
You can do it!
The layers, colors, and varieties are truly breathtaking. This video has inspired me like no other. Thank you for sharing your beautiful oasis.
Wow! Thank you so much!
Wow! Thank you!
Thanks for the tour! Greetings from Denmark.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful, beautiful yard. little bit of heaven on earth
Couldn't agree more!
You guys are my new favorite 😍! Omg.. love that fountain grass in front of the house. So perfect on that spot. Love the vanilla strawberry. And also the firelight tidbits.. gorgeous 😍. Beautiful garden.
Thanks so much!! Welcome!
I have a artic willow as well. Fast grower! I cannot find it in the stores this year. We even looked online, but it was the smaller variety. I love how you guys take your time with each plant. It's such a pleasure to watch 🏡🌳
Thank you so much!
agreed!
Your beds are just Beautiful! popping colors every where you look. put together just beautiful! thanks for sharing. Genie
Thank you so much!
Wow. Just wow‼️. I just discovered your site yesterday and I’ve been binge watching your videos ever since. I’m a big fan of your taste and gardening talent. Your garden is absolutely beautiful🙌🙌🙌
Thank you!!
Very enjoyable. Thank you from Northern California.
Glad you enjoyed it
thanks for the tour. Beautiful garden, many interesting combinations of plants and color combinations. Vanilla Strawberry Hordensia is a superstar for me.
Thanks for visiting
Guys!!!! These gardens are stunning! I’m intrigued to know how you pick what goes where, drifts vs onesie twosies, etc. new follower here but I am hooked. Sending much love from Philly ❤
Thank you so much for joining us. The honest answer...the "ones" are mostly from before we knew what we were doing. As we have learned more, the style we like is drifts. Sometimes three...sometimes thirteen!
I live in 5b. Come and plant up my garden😊. Everything looks beautiful😍
haha we have a lot of work to do at home!
Spectacular garden!
Thanks for visiting
I just stumbled upon this video and your channel, and I couldn't be happier! Your garden is beautiful and so inspiring, thank you for sharing.
Wow thanks!! We are getting the hang of filming and editing!
I am really enjoying your garden tour.Thsnks so much for sharing ❤❤
I'm so glad! Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous yard🌻. We’re slowly working towards this goal. Thank you for sharing.
Our Kingsley Ghost is in year 4 and huge, love that vine.🌻🌻
That is awesome! I love how the leaves change as the vine grows. I can't wait to see next year.
I’m sure someone already answered your question about the Clematis, but they like something covering their “feet” and they do take a while to get going. Have you ever heard “The first year it sleeps, the second year it creeps, and the third year it leaps!” Well, that’s a Clematis. Also, a “grouping” of Birch trees is several trees. One with several stems is called a multi-stem. 😉😙
Thanks @@janine4360 I am hopeful they get going next year! That birch is actually three tiny trees squished together! At first I thought it was multi-stem but as I planted I could see that it was in fact three!
Oh! @growform5b We have a gorgeous clump of 4 mature maples on our property! They are my favorite trees 💓 Unfortunately, they stand right where we want to build a new house 😭
You guys have exceptional taste and exquisite style! Love love love your garden!💚💚💚
Thank you so much!
Beautiful! A lot of color even at the end of the season! You’ve done a great job!
Thank you so much!
Love every part of your yard! Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
You are most welcome 😵💫
I love your garden! I need to watch this video twice to write down some names of my favorite of your choices. I love love the bright green Fire bush? That doesn't sound right. I started a bunch of the cat mint and am using it in a lot of borders just like you guys did. I like that it keeps weeds out from where a concrete sidewalk is in some areas of my garden.
The bright green is a Winecraft Gold Smokebush! The catmint is such great ground cover. It just keeps going and going!
AMAZING landscaping!!! Sooo... beautiful!
Thank you so very much
I live in Southern lower Michigan 5b
Yall in Michigan ?
Nice yard.
We are in upstate New York!
Just beautiful! Picking up some great ideas and tips. Thank you for taking the time to share. Loving your You Tube channel!
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you for that amazing tour, so much beauty ! I also love the formality of the patio space with the pavers and gravel pathways. It’s all so beautiful! 🇨🇦
Thank you! The pavers in the pea gravel is one of my favorite parts of the whole space. They give a little of traditional mixed with modern.
Wow, guys, everything looks beautiful absolutely stunning in your whole entire yard. I just do not see how you do that.
It takes a lot of work!
Woah guys! Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful garden! Huge props ❤
Thanks so much!
PERFECT garden !💚💚💚
Thank you!!
So glad I found you! I have been brainstorming on how to blend my landscape with my wooded area ! Your yard is beautiful!!
Ooh I love that. You can be so creative with that kind of border
Beyond beautiful! I want to be a friend from Michigan❤ your gardens have many of the same treasures my gardens have;) I also L❤OVE David Austin Roses and have 8 more coming this Spring. They sell out fast so I ordered them in January. Still with my early order I missed out on a Climbing Eden. I found her online at heirloom roses, I ordered a pair. 1/3 of my roses are climbers. Thank you for naming all your trees, shrubs and plants. I’ll need to look at your video a few times so I can see/think about it all. The beauty took my breath away.
We are adding a fun new climber too!!
Great tour as usual. So inspirational.
Thanks so much!
Everything is looking so lush and beautiful! I loved every second of your garden tour!! Happy weekend 🌿🌸🥳
Thank you so much 😊
Fantastic! I will be watching again and checking out your other videos too! You guys know your stuff and I love your design ideas!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Always enjoys your garden tours! Just spectacular landscape design! I need to watch it a few more times and take notes.
Thank you! Cheers!
Simply beautiful!! You guys give inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for visiting!
Bravo, Gentlemen! Thank you so much for the wonderful and informative tour!
Thank you for watching!
The garden is magical. There is so much variety mixed into the spaces and repeating some of the plants like the lambs ear keep things connected. I like the idea of saving seeds to replant. I’m not sure how to go about it but it would be a practical solution for saving money to put toward a tree instead. Deer are just starting to appear in our area and we are seeing more rabbits and I am hoping they don’t affect my garden. They’re beautiful animals but from a distance only.
I totally agree!
Simply stunning.
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow. Your gardens are spectacular! New subscriber here. I have garden envy. So many gorgeous plants and I am amazed that you remember every single name. I will binge watch your videos now. 😊🌱❤️
Thanks for subbing!
Love your garden tours with all the plant names❤
Thanks!
Breathtaking . Absolutely beautiful garden
Thanks for visiting
I just can’t get enough of your garden. It is absolutely beautiful and I get so much i inspiration from your videos/garden.
I want to start adding hydrangeas to my gardens and was under the impression they loved moisture. Looks like I need to do more research before adding them. I have tried planting a couple a killed them and thought it was because they were under watered.
They do like water but they like well draining soil. A little picky if you ask me, but we find that top dressing with compost has really started improving the soil and helping balance out the water
Absolutely gorgeous !!
Thank you so much!!
New subscriber from Northern California. Enjoyed your garden tour guys.
Awesome! Thank you!
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Fabulous!!! I'm so glad I found you guys! Keep up these wonderful videos!

I'm so glad!
Absolutely stunning! 😍
Thank you!! 😊
Gorgeous garden!
Thanks for visiting
Wow..your gardens are beautiful. ❤
Thank you!
I wish I had the money or friends to trade plants with. I absolutely love gardening but my husbands health is bad and I had to quit my job of 15 years to teach and care for my son that has autism. Y’all have done more than a beautiful job!!!
Thank you. Maybe some vegetables from seed could become part of your teaching?
@@growformegardening I am currently growing Zinia, 4 Oclocks, painted daisy and blanket flowers from seed. I am hoping I can transplant them successfully. As for my son he doesn’t share his mother’s interest lol
@@racheallewis2437 awww well then enjoy your beautiful flowers!
Loved your garden tour. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful beautiful garden! ❤
Thank you!!
I'm jealous South Florida doesn't allow for all these beautiful blooms in August
You do get amazing tropicals!
Absolutely beautiful work!
Thank you very much!
