    I think the plant is a white Hebe. I have never dug up dahlia tubers and they have made it through the last few harsh winters. I just cover in leaves (about a foot deep) and an upside down planter/pot. They have always been fine.

    Believe your mystery plant is Summersweet (also known as Clethra). Enjoy your videos! Look forward to the next one!

    You have made me totally fall in love with Erigeron! What an absolutely dainty and incredible plant. I'm trying to get some started from seed this year around a brick pathway in my garden, but they really do shine among your stone steps!

    Your flowering shrub that has purple flowers that fade to white is a hebe, I'm from New Zealand which is where the hebe is a native! They come in a huge variety of sizes and leaf shapes and can be clipped/pruned into shape over winter - hope this helps!

    Love your down to earth approach to gardening. I too have left Clover, Self Heal and Yarrow in the lawn for the insects. I just did it intuitively. 😊

    Hi there ! A message from a french viewer , the shrub is definily an HEBE , and the melon a CHARENTAIS , this is a french variety from the region ' Charente' ( approximately around La Rochelle in the south west of France ) , it's known here to be one of the best variety ... Thank you for your videos , quite inspiring as I also garden in a cottage garden in Normandy .... Congratulations ! Laurent

    I had erigeron in the front garden which we had to remove because we were having the wall replaced, it has however now spread around most of the rest of the street so hope the neighbours don't mind!
    I had the same experience with dahlia, didn't lift them from the front garden and they've all come back as has a quite tender salvia - I think it probably depends on drainage.

    I'm up in Glasgow and there is a 15+ year wait for allotments. So, while we're saving for our first home, I live vicariously through my Mum's gardening on the west coast of Canada. To ensure her courgettes and cucumbers produce, she uses a makeup brush to pollinate, just in case the pollinators don't make it all the way into your poly-tunnel, might be useful! Love your channel xx

    So lovely, I leave the clover as well. Right now we have what we in the states call Queen Ann's Lace blooming, it looks a lot like the flower of a carrot. My front yard is full of blooms. I vote keep the forget - me - not, they'll be really lovely blooming in front of your gray wall, yes I remember the steps, it was just beautiful.

    • @monalogue

    • @sherriianiro747

      Queen Anne's Lace is called cow parsley in the U.K. lol. It is not native - originally from Afghanistan to the Mediterranean then brought to North America as a medicinal herb. It was used to treat wounds on soldiers during the Civil War and relieves cramping among other uses. Excellent pollinator plant!

    Great to see all the progress you've made and a good idea to look back and realise how much plants have developed in 2-3 seasons!
    I think your shrub at 7:00 is a Hebe. We have one too which puts on an amazing display in early July and then gives another smaller flowering in winter which is quite wierd! It does appreciate a bit of a prune back after the summer flowers have finished and will be doing ours soon.

    Gorgeous. Underplanting with alyssum and arugula might help draw more pollinators into the polytunnel, if those plants work for your climate.

    Regardless of dahlia tuber I have 50 to70 different kids I always plant mine 4 inch deep and 1 inch of mulch through out most the year until freezing temps come then add another inch of mulch never had one rot on me yet. Probly died do to shock from being lifted then stored to cold

  • @janwilletts1986
    @janwilletts1986 ปีที่แล้ว

    Possibly a hebe for the mystery plant. Most of my Erigeron died over winter too, along with salvias and penstemons. I think it was the extended period of cold that was the problem.

    0:46 I always long for bright overcast when I do garden photos, much better than the glaring shadows and overexposures from strong , shining sun. 5:45 Yes, I repotted my 5 years of age Souvenier de la Malmaison rose into a massive pot last year into Miracle Gro potting mix, a big name here in the USA, they have downgraded the quality, and my rose that has never, in 5 years had powdery mildew was all last summer covered with it, it started up again this springtime as soon as I got her out of the cold room where she spends the winter, and set her out of doors. This springtime I doused her with a stong vinegar solution, her new growth appears to have no mildew, next attempt involves potassium bicarbonate solution. It's not that we are vain and proud, it's just that we are so joyous when our plants thrive, that we want to show the world, and when things go badly, we turn away in disgust, we don't want to look at it, much less show the world. So we get it out of our sight and seek remedies. 6:50 Looks like clethra?? 8:19 your floriferous yard looks MUCH better than weed killer, expanses of green boredom. 10:00 I am guessing that if you would dry those hollyhock flowers, that you could use them to give a super, amethyst purple to teas, gelatin esserts etc. The usual for tea is hibiscus because of it's tart quality, but I am thinking that your hollyhock flowers would be a quite useful and fascinating food color. Then is you experiment by addin tiny amounts of acid (vinegar or lemon) that you could get some beautiful effects
    4:45 Yes, Lst year I grew Charentais {pronounced shar ent tye )and also Sugar Cube melons. The charentais were disappointing, but edible , the sugar cube was exactly that, syrupy sweet. This year I am growing from the seeds of sugar cube. 21:30 Very nice, thank you for showing us!😍😍.

    Have you seen the movie/ documentary, The Earthing Movie? I am watching it and it made me think of you because it mentions how helpful earthing or also called grounding, can be for people with autism. If you have not already seen it, please try to find it and give it a watch. I could be wrong, but I feel like most of the videos I have seen of yours show you wearing shoes outside. I just wanted to share that with you.
