I very much enjoy your calm demeanor! It makes me rethink worrying about everything I start and put in. Thank you very much!!
You're very welcome, Janice :)
I don't blame the kitties for sleeping in the greenhouse, seems like a sweet spot! My cats love wandering out in the garden with me too :)
As soon as I saw Maggie I was in bliss mode 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Excellent work Tanya Thank you for all your efforts!
Your gardens are spectacular! You are so hardworking and knowledgeable. I love learning and watching from your stories🌸I’m from USA, in the the beautiful 4 season state of New Hampshire and gardening is often quite challenging here but so rewarding and satisfying. You are an inspiration for me and yes, there’s no “tired” like a full day of “gardening tired” but I sleep like the rocks I’ve dug when I’ve put in a full day of gardening!
the garden is looking great! Love watching the garden take shape!
Things are really taking shape at your place. So fun to watch the garden evolve and grow. It inspires me. We have now put in our own fruit orchard and anxious to see how it does.
An orchard is SUCH a good investment. It will benefit pollinators, birds, and other wildlife and provide you with years of fruit. Excited for you :)
Yay! You're encouraging us to continue helping the animals by improving the ecosystems around us.
Absolutely! We put in our orchard last year and seeing it growing and giving shelter/food to so many pollinators is Fantastic!
Ahh yes! I see you're cultivating a Snowfelis IsleofManicus and a Tigerella Tomentosum and they are THRIVING!
You have accomplished so much in one year, Tanya. The difference from when you moved in is just amazing. You and Josh have a lot to be proud of. Everything is coming along splendidly. The shed is incredible…..I remember how it was when you moved in. What a transformation! The floor really takes it up another notch. Perhaps you may want to hang a few before pictures in there…..from trash to treasure. While a brand new shed would look very nice, this one has a lot of character. Being painted my favorite color, I find it especially appealing. Kudos to both of you for a job well done!
Looks like a really busy but meaningful time spent in your garden! I love seeing how much the plants have grown between videos! Looking forward to see all your tomatoes established and growing happily in the polycrub! Thank you for giving us cityfolk the chance to live vicariously through you!!
You're very welcome and I'm glad that you're enjoying the updates :)
I also sowed some globe artichokes from seed this year ('Green Globe'), I planted them out a few days ago. Everything is coming through on my allotment; parsnips, 'Ne Plus Ultra' peas and onions and leeks planted out. Still a few gaps where winter squashes need to go. For tomatoes, I am growing 'Purple Ukraine', 'Ananas', 'Golden Sunrise' and 'The Amateur' which is an outdoor bush tomato. I have some melons 'Melba' and 'Collective Farm Woman. I have 11 peaches set and nicely spaced on the 'Early Rivers' fan trained tree in one greenhouse and a dozen on the other peach which I think is 'Redhaven'. Lots of cherries already set fruitlets. I just hope there are no late frosts that damage anything. I do enjoy your videos.
Everything looks lush & on target. BTW, those tulips look incredible - pretty color. Love that the two roses survived! They will look fantastic on the new trellis (liking where you place it). Your husband did a great job of the flooring, raised bed planters, etc., etc.💚👍
Isn't Josh a gem? He's like superman in the garden :) Last night he almost single-handedly pulled a massive cast iron rotary soil sieve up the garden. You'll see it in a video soon but I'm astonished that he was able to do it! The tulips are called Apricot Beauty from Sarah Raven
I cut my lawns today. Looks much better 👌
Oh my goodness its all looking wonderful! Love watching your vlogs Tanya, it gives me so much inspiration. Thankyou!
I finally had to give my cat her own bed with catnip and she loves it😍
I'll bet! haha :)
Great to see the progress in your garden. It really is a very busy period.
Beautiful 😻
lovely 😍
Beautiful video! Everything is rapidly coming together from the poly/greenhouse beds to the raised beds outside. Thanks for chatting with us and allowing us to hang with you as you putter around the garden. Best of luck with the new season!
Thank you for your kind words! Coming together, slowly but surely :)
Max envy for your zone, my last frost day is still to come.
This video just made me happy. We are a little bit behind you in the Seattle area, and have had an unusually cold spring, so seeing your garden just lifts my spirits. Everything looks great and you should be so proud of all the progress you have made in such a short time period. Very inspiring. Congrats on the one year anniversary of your book!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth :) I've noticed cold and even snow in WA and BC recently! Hang in there...spring's a-comin'! 💚
so nice
It really shows the hard work you and Josh have put into your new garden. All the best from Ont. Can.
Thank you so much :)
Everything looks so beautiful and green. Love your book. Looking through it all winter, made me dream of spring :)
Spring's here now so consider yourself turned loose in the garden (and garden centre) 😊 Have fun June and thank you!
Looking great Tanya!
Thanks Cathy :)
So exciting to watch everything getting it's place in the garden and I am convinced it is going to be so beautiful soon! Watching the videos makes me happy and inspired! btw the floor in the shed is beautiful! 😃
I LOVE it too :) This is the first proper year of growing at the house and I can't wait to see how the garden develops. This time next year will be really fun too! Less slog and more growing :)
Just amazing 💙
Thank you!
I have garden,allotment and polycrub envy. Well done Tanya it's all come on super fast I'm sure you sit out on these lovely evenings taking it all in. Thanks for sharing what you do ❤️
I WISH....I could have wood chips...
Our land is prone to ants....fire Ants and uncles.....
Thanks Lisa and I'm happy to share it :) Those summer evenings are going to be so lovely...cannot wait 💚
Enjoyed the video and found the information useful.
its all looking great well done tanya
Coming along! :)
What an inspirational video - so glad to have found you, although I do think I remember your blog from years ago. I gave 2 polycrubs and they are just the most incredible spaces - especially for growing in high wind areas.
I'm off to check out your book now xx
Your garden is looking beautiful,All your hard work is paying off..
The dream is coming to life :) It's going to be a great summer but next year is going to be even better!
Great Video! Thanks for the update! ☺️
Thanks Kristin and happy to share :)
Wow unreal variety and I admire your skill of organization. My garden turns out so random.
Oh, I have my moments of randomness 😂 That's why I try to plan now...to save time and money and to have a strong plan to work towards.
You're lovely too.nice garden 🌹
Have and love your book. I frequently peruse it when I have time, which I have this spring because it’s been so chilly and windy. Our last frost is mid March although the past several years we haven’t has. Since it still drops to mid to upper 30s we might get frost. Oh well.
It's been a chilly spring for quite a few people 💚 Hang in there, Jeanne...once it warms up you'll forget about the late start :)
Taya, I don't know about you being tired looks like you caught a little sun (cheeks a little rosy.
Garden projects coming along everywhere. Hoping to be visiting the I.O.M soon.
Definitely caught a bit of sun! Happens every year about this time...I underestimate how powerful a little spring sunshine can be :) Glad to hear of your upcoming trip...enjoy!
Everything looks lovely i love the rose arch. I have your book and read it twice and i got some useful tips from itxx
Thank you so much Penny 💜 The rose arch is pretty isn't it? It's more of a classic arbor compared to the last one which I love!
Your tomatoes plants are so lush!!!!
They're growing FAST!
I have 2 David Austen roses I bought last year!!! I got your book and look forward to reading it!
David Austins are the best! I have my eye on Queen of Sweden next :) Thanks, Kimberly and let me know what you think of the book? 💚
This is my first year trying to grow fruits and veg. I've no idea what I'm doing 🤣 I've loads of baby plants I've grown from seed in my sitting room and sun room. I've a 12x3 raised bed in ready but I've a major slug problem they demolish everything. All the flower starts I planted are gone was told to use pellets but I'd rather something that won't hurt the birds ? any advice would be much appreciated. Happy growing everyone x
Beer in shallow containers will attract slugs away from your plants.
So jealous that you're already past your frost. Our last frost date is in June in New Brunswick, Canada! But I'll be transplanting a few things outside as soon as the night time temps are consistently above freezing.
Even in the west coast this year. It goes down to zero overnight still, seedlings would die out there.
It's supposed to snow tonight in Colorado. I can't wait to have the last frost so I can get things out.
I’m in north Idaho, USA, and today we hit 60 degrees for the first time this spring but our nights are still quite chilly in the 30’s. My last frost date is averaging around the 25 of May. I watch a handful of favorite gardening utubers from the British Isles and all of them have much warmer climates than mine. Blessings, TeresaSue
It sounds like you need a Polycrub! 💚
@@Lovelygreens Definitely in the plan for my future. Gotta get a house first (later this year or early next), and then see what I'm working with for garden space.
I saw those seed packets on the ground and thought: they will blow away. Next shot they are under a brick. lol
Looking great You’ve worked so hard and yes handy having a tradesmen as a partner. Looking forward to seeing the polycrub planted up.
Getting closer to the day 😊 It's going to be AMAZING filled with all of those tomatoes!
It looks awesome Tanya! You’ve done so much work! I love the hedgerow, I’m very curious to see how it fills in. And is that the generous garden rose?
your sticky trap advice has saved a lot of my plants being attacked by lil critters lol
They are SUCH an important little tactic for indoor seedling raising. Without them, plants can suffer and you can go mad from all the flies. I do, at least 😂
@@Lovelygreens I was going mad with all the lill flies I've still got some but not many thanks to you and btw I'm super jealous of your pollycrub
Those tulips in the intro are stunning. What is the variety please?
They're Apricot Beauty from Sarah Raven :)
What a beautiful day! Have you had success transplanting sunflowers as seedlings?
Oh yes! I never direct sow sunflowers...always start them off in small pots or modules and plant them out :)
💚💚💚💚
Just curious, since you put so much hard work into your garden and want to ensure everything thrives, are there any plants you avoid planting near each other because they would interfere with each other’s growth?
Do you mean allopathic plants? I don't consider that at all with planting but I do think about root run and canopy when planting out.
I was thinking more along the lines of plants that don’t grow well next to each other, for whatever reason. Forgive me, my knowledge is limited so maybe I’m not forming my question very well. I use an app to help with organizing my little garden and it shows onions and potatoes as bad neighbors, though does not say why. I was just wondering if you’ve experienced a situation of bad neighbors in your garden at some point. Anyway, I really enjoy your videos and appreciate the knowledge you share.
I can’t get the coupon code to work for the water magnetized. Is it valid for USA purchases?
I’ve heard that magnets on water pipes makes the water softer.
It doesn't.
That's what the Plant Surge does! It's developed by a company that has been producing water-softening shower heads for some years and has some pretty convincing independent trials. You can read more about the product here: plantsurge.com/products/plantsurge-the-revolutionary-water-magnetiser?ref=lovelygreens
@@Lovelygreens Your link only provides biased 'proof' from the company itself with no links to the mentioned scientific papers. Just some pretty flowers and an excell file. No mention on how it was conducted under which circumstances.
Water isn't magnetic and can't be made so (only by VERY strong magnetic fields that are only feasible with huge amounts of energy).
The company says the magnet reduces the 'cluster size' of the water molecules. What the F is that!? o.O
Water molecules form hydrogen bonds with each other because the molecule is polar. These break and reform billions of times a second.
We also know that the lower the temperature of a substance, the higher its density (it contracts). Except for water! It expands. Because of the hydrogen bonds.
When water reaches 0°C, the kinetic energy of the molecules is no longer strong enough to break the hydrogen bonds and are locked in place in a crystal lattice: ice.
When the temperature rises again above 0°, the crystal collapses, causing the water molecules to 'slip closer' to each other. That's why water has the highest density at 4°C, above which the kinetic energy of the molecules is high enough to cause them to move faster and thus create more distance.
So you see, if you were to believe that this might make plants take up more water, you should actually be watering with 4°C water. NOT use a magnet.
And then I haven't even explained how water actually is drawn up the plant...
Besides, said 'independent trials' were conducted by a horticulturalist, not someone with a scientific degree/doctorate. Said person also did this (and other!) trial while under contract of a company (another nursery). So ofcouse the results would be in favor of the paying client.
Funny that your cat likes to lay in the soil.
It's dry on top and WARM :)
I’m battling sticker vine and Virginia creeper vine in my garden!ugh!
We each have our challenges in the garden 💚 good luck!
Treat your table to a waterproof tablecloth, prevent water damage?
I’m in second position for an allotment and so excited. How many hours per week do you spend at your allotment?
Congratulations! These days, not very much time. A few hours a week! In the past, when I first started my plot it was several afternoons a week. You can see how I started my allotment and the recommendations I have for new allotment holders here: th-cam.com/video/U-ZhdlbJsRA/w-d-xo.html
Don't mention sheds to me at the moment im having nightmare building mine 😭😁😭😁😭🤣🤣🤣
Hoping it all comes together ok!
@@Lovelygreens cheers nothing a big hammer can't sort or a nice pint 🛠️🍻🍻😂😂😂
With yr own property now, why do you still rent the allotment?
Because I love being part of the community there :) I don't share as much about other plot holders or our association's activities for privacy reasons but it's a fun organisation to be part of!
