That hello at the very beginning was so welcoming and sweet 😢❤❤

[@suepercy8390]

I never thought to keep few well grown plants just to pop in during the season. I will this year thank you

[@maggiehughes4283]

Thanks Rosy, very interesting, just like all your videos are.

[@marleneshaw3788]

Thank you Rosy great suggestions !

[@reneeclover2607]

Hello! We love that you set the plants up in an arrangement at the end of the video! It is SO helpful to see "what to put where" in real time for those of us who are entirely visual learners. Talking about plants and their attributes is helpful but seeing different combination possibilities BEFORE they are planted is wonderfully constructive and helps with planning placement in both established and new borders. Thank you again from Pennsylvania, USA growing zone 6b!

Great video Rosy, some lovely plants here and useful that you explain how to combine them in a border space. Thanks 👍

[@jessietraveler6510]

All the descriptions of the plants in your videos are very much appreciated.

Beautiful coral orange coloured persicaria with perfect flower shape,will definitely buy some to mix with persicaria firetail and sanguisorba blackthorn for an autumnal colour combo,thanks for the inspiration ✨🕊

Given me some Ideas just had one delivery from you now looking at brightening up the blues and pinks I have, they must be perennial and Bee butterfly friendly .

[@GrannysGarden]

I love the combination of plants you put together and I am enjoying the videos you are uploading. I don't suppose you could be persuaded to open a garden centre in Spain!!!!. It is so difficult to get hold of named varieties here and difficult to get an plant that is slightly more unusual or less well known.

[@GrannysGarden]

@@RosyHardyGardening There are good growers, particularly in Galicia in the north-west of Spain. Very few growers are also retailers and much is grown for export. Unfortunately many of the garden centres only stock firm favourites that they are sure will sell. But if you don't give gardeners the chance to experiment with new plants it becomes a vicious circle. If they don't know something exists then they aren't going to ask for it and the garden centres aren't going to stock them.
Our small village garden centre brought in Hydrangea Paniculata for the very first time.... about 50 shrubs.....and will wonders never cease, they sold every last one in less than a week. I'm trying to persuade him to keep bringing in lesser known plants and shrubs even if only occasionally. Fingers crossed 🤞

My cosmos is over 6 feet tall.

[@aaiyar2643]

I love your videos & find them very informative. But could you also mention the common names of the plants that you talk about please? Thank you

[@RosyHardyGardening]

We use the botanical names because the common names vary across different countries and even regions within countries - while the botanical names are uniform regardless of where you are in the world. Rosy covered this in this video: th-cam.com/video/rwHB6ortjqw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iuygrgFnRKxSvbst

[@aaiyar2643]

@@RosyHardyGardening ok thanks

[@fyvewytches]

Thank you for this and your other informative videos. Just one comment… when you say ‘at this time of the season’ please could you be more specific. It just makes it a bit easier for people, such as myself, who are watching a couple of years after you had posted. Of course if YT could show the upload date as it so easily could things would be so much easier 😊. Thanks again.

[@RosyHardyGardening]

You should be able to see youtube upload dates if you click 'more' on the description. But yes TH-cam is rather fiddly at times and not always obvious how to use it

[@fyvewytches]

Ah yes, I didn’t know about that. Thank you so much 😊

[@SMElder-iy6fl]

Do you find that the newer types of echinacea come back well?
