Here are 5 Tips to help you get your garden prepped and ready for winter. I'll show you what I have in my garden that will provide winter interest all season whether it's evergreens. conifers or just gorgeous peeling bark and branching.
Here is a link to my video on Underplanting and Interplanting for Early Spring Interest that I mentioned:

Please stay with you tube. I’m in north NJ also zone 6. There doesn’t seem to be many north eastern gardeners that post. I appreciate your knowledge, advice & garden! Beautiful!
I totally agree with you on so many levels. As I'm getting older, I don't want to work so hard in the garden. I'm converting my garden to approximately 80% trees and shrubs and 20% perennials. This is the perfect time of year to use the cardboard and mulch method for new garden beds. Thanks for sharing your garden and valuable information.
Yeah getting older stinks but the alternative….. thanks 🙏 for watching!
I enjoy your channel and have been watching many of your videos. I have about 10 channels I watch regularly and yours is one of them.
Fabulous!! Thank you 🙏
Love your channel and your beautiful garden and knowledge! I look forward to seeing your posts!
That’s great I got! Thx for being a subscriber!
Thank you for ur great videos. Please continue with TH-cam!! I hang on to ur every word!!!
I have come to the same conclusion this summer. With all of the rain, keeping up with the prolific weeds, pruning, etc., was challenging. I don’t feel good about my gardens when they r filled with weeds. Ur video is the confirmation I needed. My spirit desires an incredible British manor cottage garden, which would be many times the size of my home😆. I have been wrestling with what I want, and what I can realistically care for for this last part of my life. Ur video has confirmed what I was considering-to cut out some of my gardens and add evergreens, so that I am able to maintain well, which in turn, will make me happier, and will give me more peace. Thank u!!!🌿🌺🌳
You’ve got it!!!
I'm in the UK and love your channel. I only ever watch TH-cam so please stay with it. Thankyou. 👍👍
Thank you so much for the support and watching!
Hi robin. Love you're channel. You are so real, love it. Please stay on youtube. I am older too and can relate to the practicality. I really appreciate it. Do what you need to do😊. Kansas fan.
Thank you Kansas!! So glad the information I try to share is relatable to others.
Please keep going! I watch a few others but enjoy your knowledge and gardens so much!
Awesome thx for watching!
Please stay on youtube! I just discovered your channel and its so helpful. I’m working my way through all your past videos.
You go girl!! 👏
Please stay on TH-cam, I watch your videos regularly!
🙏 I do appreciate your support! I love everyone’s comments. It’s a great community of gardeners.
Yes please stay on you tube! Your's is one of my absolute favorite channels! I look forward new videos from you! I garden in Ontario zone 5b😊
Oh thank you so much for the encouragement! It’s a lot of work. So appreciate all my subscribers support!!
Stay with youtube! I just started following you last month or so. Although I'm in zone 6b (North Georgia mountains), all your informative is valuable to me. Trees and shrubs are for me too! I'm not necessarily lazy (?), but I'm old (!) and it's getting harder and harder to do anything.
I hear you!!!!
Just found you. Love all the information. Planning on redoing some flower bed to make it easier. I’m a retired widow and I can’t keep up but I love doing as much as I can😊
Yeah welcome! Thanks for subscribing 😀
I'm in Northeast Ct. and I love and appreciate your channel very much!
Awesome! Thank you for watching!!!
Hi Robin, I’m a relatively new subscriber and gardener. I love your videos! I’m inspired by your eye for design and interesting plant choices. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge in the garden.
Thank you 🙏 for watching and welcome!!
Good morning mom ❤❤
We have a half acre that has multiple beds. I’m looking for content to have less maintenance and this video helped. Thanks for sharing.
Thx for watching!!
You actually have one of the most informative garden channels on TH-cam. It’s always a pleasure to tour your beautiful gardens - but can’t imagine how much work they are to maintain. We definitely appreciate all of your efforts & expertise! Please continue to post. 👏👏🙏
Thank you so sweet!!!
Agree with so much that you say. And SO many useful suggestions and tips, thank you. Am in the UK and watch all of your videos so do please keep going. I know you don't have huge subscriber numbers at the moment, but its amazing how, for no obvious reason, numbers suddenly escalate. I keep a list of all of my plants too, and just when the garden seems 'almost' how you want it, something substantial will die and change an entire border. I've learnt to take these events as opportunities!
I love that positivity! Also sometimes it’s just time for a change.
I enjoy your videos. Love the gardens.
Thank you for watching and subscribing!! 😀😀
Winter gardening is a whole new adventure! Thanks for these helpful tips.
Anytime!!
Keep going! I watch several garden you tube channels and I just found yours! Enjoy the content.
Awesome!! Thanks for subscribing 😀😀
Great video Robin...watched it in two intervals and now wish I had planted a Little Kng River Birch..if I got the name correct...beautiful.
Yes it would be great in your wet areas!!
THIS! 72 and 6b in south central PA. Awesome video for me. I live up against a mountain and my humidity is high. Just ripped out 28 of my designer daylilies because I battle streak and my leaves are always ugly. Dividing is harder than it used to be. Will be using more hydrangeas, and other plants that do like it here. Had to put in deer fence years back though. Thank you for this information.😢
Great so glad it was helpful!!thx for watching 😊
Good 🌄🙋morning mom is😊
I would love to see a video on how you organize and keep track of the information on all of your plants. Do you have a garden planner or diary/journal? Thanks
I have a journal that I write in every day and keep track of everything I do in the garden as well as what’s blooming etc. I’ll try to show it in an upcoming video.
I try to watch all you videos
Enjoy having breakfast with you. Hubby and I are both 65 and are planning in down sizing our flower beds also. Adding conifers and flowering shrubs in 6B south central PA. Thank you for sharing your gardening experiences with us🌻🌻
Our gardens are 5 years old, ton of perennials, thinning out and giving away this fall and next spring. Looking for junipers and weeping pines.
I just got a new little pine called ‘Mini Twist’ and I love the texture. Check it out.
Enjoyed! I am trying to get more evergreens in my garden also. Eliminating too much high maintenance planting. Perspectives do change as the years go on.
You can say that again!!!
I’ve been gardening for many years and it’s mind boggling how many mistakes I still make , always moving things around , making more work for myself
As gardeners we learn more about our gardens every season for sure 😃
Another choice I’ve made is to plant fewer varieties, and rather to plant greater number/multiples of plants for a simpler, calmer garden.
Great tip!!
I just discovered your channel recently and am really enjoying your videos. I'm in the Pacific NW Z8 but find that many of the plants you talk about work in my garden too. I inherited a blank slate (read weedy mess) and have begun installing planting beds. As I too am getting older, I'm trying to include many evergreens and shrubs but also pollinator plants. Please keep making videos. I only wish there was someone for my area of the country vlogging that has your experience and knowledge.
So sweet!! Thank you for watching and subscribing!! Go back and watch some of the previous videos. I have been vlogging for 2 years 😀
Please stay with TH-cam. Just found you recently and I'm in south africa but I'm learning a lot from you
That’s awesome! Welcome 🤗. Do you have zones there? You’re headed into spring right? My son’s in laws are from South Africa. He says it’s gorgeous!
I’m in a zone 5b and we didn’t get snow last winter but,we were blessed with a ton of water this spring/summer no problem 😉🌳
Same here!!
I’m so there with less maintenance as well as winter interest/structure. I cannot keep up with the maintenance of each perennial. Trees and shrubs are my new direction. Things which survive despite the drought,humidity, extra rain, are low maintenance, and being ignored by me. Also, if trimmings are healthy, I chop and drop.
I hear you!!
I've added more winter evergreens over the last 3 years. It's difficult to find small evergreen shrubs that stay small.
Where do you live? I’ll tell you what I’ve purchased recently.
PS. Phew, might have split the video into two though!
I’m south coast UK 🇬🇧 wish we had snow ❄️. Not seen snow for 6 years .
What’s the Latin name for pinkie winkie 😂?
We had almost no snow here in Connecticut last year either. Crazy weather 😢
Did you say you were going to store your dahlia tubers in your garage? Isn't too cold for a zone 6 region....curious I am also zone 6 and stored by tubers in my unfinished basement. My garage is not heated, is yours?
Yes I found the basement too warm. Last year they went in the garage. Yes it’s untested but it never went below 50.
Is your basement heated? how about your garage? @@letstalkgardeningwithrobin
@@suzannebartow6390 basement is heated but not garage
thanks@@letstalkgardeningwithrobin
Did you say you're in zone 6 and have to dig out oriental lilies? I'm in zone 5 and have around 15 different ones and never dug them up in over 30 years of gardening. Vicki
Yes I now leave mine in the ground. I was overwintering ones I had in containers but even those are going in the ground and they can tough it out 😊
Your laminate labs is not in your store.
I’ll check again and get back to you
They are on the second line. bit.ly/43MQQuW
Is my link not working? It works when I click on it.
There seems to be a problem with my Amazon store on with them now
I understand from Amazon there is a problem with a lot of Affiliate accounts. Will try to get it sorted out asap. Thx for your patience.
All fixed. Both the steel plant markers and the laminate labels are there
