- Don’t let your garden be a summer season only garden. Plan to add interest for a the seasons. You’ll get there with practice. I hope these tips and my experience help you get a better start with starting to think about creating year round interest.
These are lessons I’ve had to learn on my own over the last five years as I’ve been turning my own yard into our happy place. I am sharing with you the tools that I’ve been using and I hope it helps you.
Please tell me if it does
A note about the next video: I am working on these videos in real time and so please bear with me if I recommend a video at the end and it’s not yet upload. It should be uploaded the next day after this one is posted.
If you’ve read this far, please introduce yourself. I’ll do my best to “meet” you even from the distance of this screen.
Thank you.

Go to the garden center once a month or so and buy blooming things. That way, by the next year, you will have something blooming at all times!
@@barbarawitt9989 this is great insight Barbara! I will pin your comment so that others will see it and be helped by it!
See? This! This is why I so appreciate TH-cam.🥰
I love your storytelling style 🥰
@@TheDebben very kind of you to say. Thank you!
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m 7a in a home we moved into 3 years ago. We had a blank slate except for established larger trees. I’m only now realizing that I have nothing of interest in winter. This is my current focus.
@@LynetteP150 Lynette, happy planting! I find winter planing to be so rewarding especially if you do it in winter. A tip for you: the box stores have plenty of sales on evergreens after Christmas.
I agree with your storytelling. Great job and i look forward to more videos. I have a cottage garden myself and would love to hear about what you picked and see where you planted your evergreens for the colder months. Thanks and take care! 😊
We have the same zone! I’m so glad 😃
For my winter garden, I rely on Boxwoods, euonymus, deciduous trees, hardscape such as birdbaths, obelisks, brick paths, and garden art.
"Hens and chicks" too.
Thank you for your videos. I also live in zone 7 (South NJ).
I’m fairly new to gardening (outside of vegetables) and have found I am horrible at designing gardens. All my gardens look messy and unorganized. Yet
I have decided to start a psalms 23 healing garden. A acre and a half of garden trails with stops along the way to reflect on different parts of psalms 23 as well as the garden and peace. Right now I have a 20ftx70ft formal pond with small waterfall and a bunch of piles of dirt to make hills. It is basically an open field with a pond in the center. I have an idea for a layout of paths and stops along the way but little ( nothing) in the way of plant design or layout. I would love help in designing it or any ideas you might have . Maybe you could even do a before and after design series on you channel. I could send you pictures of what I have for input. Just throwing it out there. Respond to this comment and I’ll send you my email if you’re interested.
@@hiddengardens1890 hello! Your psalm 23 garden sounds absolutely amazing! I adore the idea as the psalms are also close to my heart.
In this season of life, I only take a handful of clients and are face to face but I hope that the tips I share here does help you to take it and run with it.
I do love the idea of eventually during a “walk through design” series. That would be great. Thank you so much !
