Always good to see a new clip, John! You walking past that incredible stand of persicaria reminded me that I finally figured out why your plantings are so lush. Your gardening, of course, but also the fact that Ireland is in the equivalent of our US zones 8-9, but without the tropical heat. Great variety of plants are possible and they have a long growing period.
I love how you have examples in secret garden of the plants - as you said Aster doesn't look good in pot - talking of butterflies - I do lot paper crafts in my conservatory - with door open - and whilst making paper making flowers - I sometimes get butterfly resting on paper flower - then flies off.
lovely! The wood aster is a native weed here in Connecticut, I pull a lot of it out every year, but it is wonderful in those dry shade spots in the garden! Your garden is wonderful to see, great design work!
Hi John, thank you for this newest video! I hope you don't pull out the geranium Bully from the yellow Daisy! Maybe have to send it a little bit?? But I love the purple and yellow together! Look so beautiful. Maybe that's why the geranium wanted to be on that side!☀🌱❤
Good evening watching beautiful video. Those daisies are just amazing, look like happy little faces, to me. Do we not dead head them daisies then?. ❤️ 👀 🌸 Well thanks for the information x
I have some varieties ofHelenium and Helianthemum. What tricks can you share to help me remember which is which? 🤡Thank you for taking the time to make these excellent videos!
I love daisy shaped flowers! I had a second year rusty red colored rudbeckia that I loved, suddenly died this year. Maybe from mole tunnel damage. I hope I can find another. I’ve been planting perennials in pots set in the ground because we have so many moles making tunnels everywhere here in Oregon.
You could come and sort out my long borders 5 acres of them .Love your talks John .Sir Kevin Parr Bt would always give you a job if it goes to the dogs in Ireland.
I love your enthusiasm. My poor soil seems too heavy and acid to be very successful with daisies. Need more tips please. I can grow that bluish/ purple aster however. In fact it becomes a bit of a thug. So should I try other types around it please? My central Scotland climate is not very conducive to sunny daisies either. That aster doesn’t seem to mind the wet and cold. You have a very beautiful garden. Where is it please and thank you.
I live in eastern Massachusetts, Zone 6a. I have trouble keeping my aster frikaarti monch upright. It tends to flop. Should I chelsea chop or do something else? It's marginally hardy here so I'm hesitant to do much. But it certainly doesn't put on the show in this video because the flowers are too dispersed and often facing downward.
Plants perform differently in different climates. If Chelsea chop doesn’t work i would definitely try a different aster. Been gardening for years and I have learned that what looks good in a magazine, book or video quite a few times is a disappointment in my garden. I think John too advised to keep what works and get rid of what doesn’t. It’s the secret to having a lush and beautiful garden without excessive effort.
Great video. I have 5 patches of rudbeckia goldsturm and it is so pretty and trouble-free. What is the tall plant with red spiky flowers at 9:13? I think I saw you talk about it on one of your videos in the past and I wrote it down but now I can't find where I wrote it down.
John I enjoy yours vids ..but I have to say running a retail nursery you cheat a bit ..sometimes a single plant grouping would run to 125 pounds ..you plant up to 20 plants of the one type . Not really real world stuff.
You’ve not been following the channel for long. Most times he digs up a plant and propagates it by dividing it. If budget is a problem just buy a few plants and after they have established you can easily divide them and get all the plants you want for free. Works for most perennials. Real world used to be getting plants from free from friends and neighbors. Lots of perennials need thinning after a few years and that’s the perfect time for “rescuing” plants that would be thrown on the compost heap. Also buying seeds is a very budget friendly way to get tons of plants. Takes some effort but it’s worth it.
The "bully policy" sent me over the edge. LOL. Thanks for sharing the garden and laughter.
Thank you John and camera person for making these videos. They're extremely useful to me. I can't get enough...
Enjoyed the video today... everything is nice.
John - garden legend
John's shirt had a lot of flowers printed on it, so the butterfly got confused! Love all your videos, always learn something new, thank you!
😀
Right, if a pirate always has a parrot on his shoulder it seem proper for a gardener to have a butterfly on his shoulder!
Hello John-always great to see that you have a video up. Garden is beautiful-as usual.
Love that you always give us the botanical names and cultivar.. including on screen. Have gotten great ideas from you to use in my NC mountain garden.
Long time no see, John... Lovely video... Enjoyed every minute... Hope to see you soon... Stay safe...
🦋♥️ Great butterfly moment!
le jardin est magnifique en cette fin d'été , bravo c'est très beau !
Highly recommend Helenium Sahin's Early Flowerer - Starts end of June/beginning of July until frost in z4b Minnesota.

Wieder ein fantastisches Video, inclusive Pflanzen-Lehrgang. DANKE!!!
Love your videos and greatly appreciate that you put the names of the plants on the screen.

Thanks for sharing another great video I love Heleniums
Another great video John, thank you.
I love daisies @ this time of year, I have several in flower in my garden.
We always look forward to your videos, so very down to earth, so much great information, and told in such a beautiful relatable manner.
Awesome..always enjoy your excitement..blessings
Thank you for your interesting video. Ans the butterfly on your shoulder - so nice 😊!
Always love your videos!
Missed you. Been waiting for you to post
Very lovely post as per usual !! Keep them coming 🤩
This garden has a naturalistic design which is actually very difficult to achieve successfully. This kind of beauty doesn’t “just happen!”
Great video as always. Visited the garden centre this last week and it's even more beautiful in person and would recommend to all.
I love you.
I'm form Zagreb, and didn't know we had a coreopsis named like that, cool.
Yup I have it here in the USA too.
You can find that coreopsis in every garden center in the U.S.!
Good evening watching beautiful video. Those daisies are just amazing, look like happy little faces, to me. Do we not dead head them daisies then?. ❤️ 👀 🌸 Well thanks for the information x
I am indigenous Montagnard live in NC I love flowers

There are also orange and pinky red coreopsis. K

Persicaria
John you need to get a microphone. Your voice keeps fading in and out.

Your preaching to a gardener here for over 60 years..and I've heard John say '' ''they had 10 ..but i wanted 20''...end of story.
