What beautiful gardens and what a view. Ok I have no idea what a jumping worm is but I probably would never come out of the house. I have a snake aversion and worms remind me of baby snakes. I really enjoyed the tour❤️❤️❤️
Wow - what a beautiful property! A GREAT big thanks to your mom and dad for sharing their private space with us. Thank you to you as well - I really enjoyed this video.
This was so fun to watch! Unfortunately I didn’t see the video until fall ….. which made me think of how wonderful it would be to see their garden in each season!
Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your mom’s garden. Clearly, the apple 🍎 didn’t fall far from the tree. Would love another tour later in the summer.
She has gorgeous gardens and I bet her fall color is wonderful as well. It’s always fun to see other people’s gardens. Thanks you so very much for the tour. I really need a crabapple in my life. Lol. All the beautiful gardens I see has a crabapple or two. Hers is one of the prettiest. Take care and thanks again. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
Wow, Erin, your parent's gardens are extremely gorgeous and so well maintained. You must have been inspired by your mom's love of gardening. You must be your mother's twin when it comes to surrounding your property with beautiful plants. Please tell your parents that we thank them for allowing you to share a glimpse of their lovely property with us. ~Margie
Please thank your parents for sharing their garden. What a wonderful landscape! The gardens are just fabulous and it was great to hear about the changes over the years.
That lake view is spectacular! I hope your mom enjoys some time on a lawn chair admiring the views. That’s a huge garden for one person. Truly beautiful.
Thank you so much for showing us your mom’s gardens. So beautiful. I understand now where you get your passion for plants. We try to equal our mom’s beds but somehow she win at every turn. 😂 So many years of experience. Tell your mother that we simply love what she is doing in the garden.
Beautiful garden. Kudos to your Mom! I do everything in my garden too and I love every minute of it. It’s where I lose myself. That’s the beauty of gardening.
Oh. My. Goodness!!! I see where you get your talent from! Your mom is amazing, this garden is one of the best I've ever seen and I frequently read all the library books about the great gardens of the world. Unbelievable and stunning! I am like her, I do it all myself and PACK PACK PACK the plants in! :) It's the only way to go. Well done and THANK YOU for this tour!
Holy Cow! What a view. I think I'd move back home for that alone. Seriously, I can see why you're so inspired. Thank you for sharing this labor of love!
Wow. What a wonderful piece of property and beautiful gardens. I don’t know how old your Mom is but I am encouraged to think that I can keep on building gardens even though I am in my 60’s. Thanks for sharing.
Erin!! OMG 😱I now see where your inspiration and passion comes from. First of all the setting right off the lake is storybook just a gorgeous backdrop. What a treat sharing such a lovely garden and the architecture of the house is just spectacular. We can’t thank you enough. Please DO NOT make this the last tour of your parents garden. 💚💚💚💯
Wow, Wow, Wow!! I figured your mom’s garden would be a cute ‘little old lady’ garden. The expanse of it and such well thought out design of simplicity with pops of beauty is just amazing and inspiring. Those hostas! And that clever shade bed with pots and european ginger! Always love the videos of your garden so it was fun to see where your garden passion ‘germinated’ 😁
Thank you for sharing this video! What a wonderful display of plants trees and flowers ~. Kudos to your mom and dad for their thoughtfulness and creative design in their landscapes - well done ! It looks so inviting!
It's beautiful. I now know where you get your love of gardening and your green thumb from. Thanks to both you and your mom for sharing. Definitely interested in revisiting later.
I love their garden. Wonderful to have the view of the lake! How interesting that her Siberian iris hadn’t bloomed in years as mine bloomed the first year I planted them and then nothing for several years UNTIL this year! I had resolved that I was going to take them out this year so I could plant something that would bloom and, bingo; beautiful flowers! So happy I didn’t get around to taking them out 🤣. Thank you for sharing your childhood home 👍🏻❣️
Love the swath of hakanechloa in the front of the house, and the bluff is just gorgeous! Beautiful garden! Love the message that gardens are always evolving and always a work in progress due to changing conditions, etc. :)
Thank you and your Mom for sharing this lovely garden with so much inspiration, just like yours! I too love very close plant placement. Get to use many more plants and hardly any weeds. I have been gardening for over 40 years and am always ready to learn new things and enjoy others gardens. No worry with the hosta garden in the winter...it will be covered with snow.
Wow Erin ,your mom’s garden is beautiful,she does what Claus does pack out your garden and leaves no room for weeds.What a great place to have grown up😊
That is just so darn beautiful! Makes me miss my home state of WI...and ohh that view of the lake!! Thanks so much for sharing Mom's beautiful gardens!!
Lovely! I have watched this 3 times. I have loaded my beds too but one plant she is missing is the helibore, lenten rose. I got my first helibore 30 years ago and fell in love with it because it’s deer resistant and evergreen, shade loving, tough plant for New Jersey. I got my love of gardening from my Mother too. A Rutgers Master Gardener who kept gardening until she was 98.
So nice to see your parents' garden. That pink shirt looks good on you! I especially like the densely planted hosta garden - and the great big evergreens! I'm sure Jumping Worms and Turkey Trouble is no laughing matter - but it sounds hilarious!! The Asarum Europaeum is my favourite ground cover too. I have a suggestion: how about planting those three pots up with some tall, lime green ferns - with the begonias around the edges? I think it would look good with something tall against the wall. Thanks to you and your parents for the tour! Ingela, Sweden
Yes 👍🏻 definitely give an update tour as the season progresses. Such a peaceful area in spite of the road. Love the view of Lake Michigan. I need to look up the fringe tree to see if it takes part shade. You can never have too many hostas! ☺️
Wow Erin! Thank you for this tour of your parent's lovely garden! It's so beautiful! God bless your Mom for maintaining it all so beautifully! I envy that level of energy!😂 Yes! I for one would enjoy revisiting to see other plants in their glory! Enjoy the rest of your summer!! 😉🌻🐝🦋🌳🌞🙋♀️❣
Hey Erin! Love this sharing of your parents garden. A tip for your mom on the turkeys (bc we have lots in our yard here in TN) they probably ARE after the worms but they also like to roll in "dust bowls" to keep the bugs/ticks off. So two things she can do, she can buy corn and black oil bird seed, they will eat anything really but if she puts it in a place well away from the garden they will most likely go for that first and just toss it about in or near the woods no piles needed and 2 - if she can put a large pile of sandy dirt or mulching near a tree base (again not near something she likes) they will use it to take their dust bathes. They really like my mulch around my fruit trees, I keep replacing that mulch but they stay out of my gardens! Hope this helps :)
The fringe tree, the huge evergreens and the Japanese forest grass mass plantings, so soothing. What an incredible backdrop with the lake too! I’m a fan of packing my flower beds to avoid weeds too, gotta love that! Thanks for sharing and I’d love to revisit.
I loved seeing your parents home and garden, so lush and pretty. I got my love of gardening from my Mom too, I really miss her - especially this time of year coming into spring.
What a wonderful treat! Love looking at other peoples gardens, but especially your moms, knowing where you received all your inspiration. ALWAYS FUN! Beautiful piece of property. I was excited to see her chairs at 11:55....we bought 2 of those from an estate sale, thought they were cool looking! :)
Hi Erin! Your parents have a beautiful place and view of the lake! Please thank them for letting you show it to us. I can see where you get your love for gardening and incentives from. I looked up "jumping worms" and what a big problem they cause. Oh my! Do you have them, too? I hope someone comes up with a way to permanently get rid of them. Yes, I'd like to see an update later on. Thank you so much for sharing!
Beautiful garden. I tried to instill a love of gardening in my daughters but failed. Working on my grandsons now.😊 Your mothers garden provides much inspiration.
what a stunning garden ... one you could wander all day long !!! beautiful plants, trees, shrubs, etc. - thanks to your parent's and to you for sharing this beauty with us ... inspirational for sure !!
Thank you for sharing your Mom’s (and Dad’s) garden. A lovely piece of heaven to enjoy. Please thank her for opening it to all of us. I can see where you get some of your inspiration.
Beautuful! I planted green giant arborvitae in my front yard 4 years ago when I moved in. Planted little trees to screen away the fire station across the street. Getting close to hiding it and creating a much better view.
Beautiful garden Erin. What a great place to grow up.
Hi 😊

Holy cow, it's easy to see where you obtained your passion and skills for gardening. Well done Erin's mother!

Great to see a garden in my zone
Hi 😊
Erin!! OMG 😱I now see where your inspiration and passion comes from. First of all the setting right off the lake is storybook just a gorgeous backdrop.
What a treat sharing such a lovely garden and the architecture of the house is just spectacular. We can’t thank you enough.
Please DO NOT make this the last tour of your parents garden. 💚💚💚💯
Your moms garden is absolutely beautiful! Your mom should consider have an early turkey dinner. 😳 God bless
That view of the lake!!! Looks like an ocean.
The gardens and plantings are beautiful, the house and view are spectacular.
She has some great layers in there and Even had me thinking about placement for plants in my own yard!
Thank you Erin for showing us such a beautiful garden!!! I can’t get over the lake Michigan view 😍😍😍
Such a beautiful garden, how sweet of your mom to let us see. I would love to see it again when other things are blooming.
Lovely area, including the lake!! I planted Virgins Bower this year, but on trellis, up my tree, which I learned from another Gardner!
So, so lovely. My mom also believes in packing her flower beds to choke out weeds. Always a good plan!
Wow, Wow, Wow!! I figured your mom’s garden would be a cute ‘little old lady’ garden. The expanse of it and such well thought out design of simplicity with pops of beauty is just amazing and inspiring. Those hostas! And that clever shade bed with pots and european ginger!

Gosh, I love your mom’s garden!!! It is just beautiful! I’d love to see it at various times of the year.
Thank you for the tour of your mom's garden, gorgeous. I can't imagine how she maintains all that lushness.
Hello Diana..

Omg amazing Garden and that view is spectacular, could sit and stare at that view all day was hoping you would show more of it. :)

Thank you for sharing your Mom’s (and Dad’s) garden. A lovely piece of heaven to enjoy. Please thank her for opening it to all of us. I can see where you get some of your inspiration.
