    When planting in the ground dig the hole and put water in it. Add the plant in and water again and add granular fertilizer and then add your garden soil and water one more time. Just so the y don't dry out. You also don't want to use plastic in your yard. It doesn't break down and isn't breathable. Use landscape fabric or cardboard if needed.

    looks great! I knew that shed was going to be the cutest thing ever. Your yard is big enough that you don't have to go in a straight line. You can make some curves to give it some interest. Also, maybe consider putting some of the same plants together in a group to create a drift of the same things instead of alternating every other plant. it will make the plants that are the same look more lush and give you more of a full, cottage garden look. And you might want to invest in a drip irrigation system to prevent them from drying out in your heat. Gardens are always evolving and if you are anything like me, your garden will change over time as you learn what you like and what you don't. So glad it is turning into your dream back yard! You are doing a great job!

    I definitely love the continuous plant bed more. The care of a hydrangea is in it's name. They love water, and I mean daily watering. If not they lay down and get fussy. Lol. Plus they don't enjoy too much direct sun light. They like morning sun and evening shadow. I just bought my first hydrangea this year, it my favourite flower/plant. I did a lot of research before I bought it. I plan to buy more now that I know how to keep it happy. Great garden work. ☺️💐💐💐

    Looking good! Next time you’re making garden beds, look into the no dig, no till method. You basically lay down a bunch of cardboard instead of the landscape fabric and mulch on top of it. It kills the grass and the weeds, but then it breaks down and feeds the soil. I’ve loved it. It also makes it easier to plant more when you’re ready and you don’t have to go through landscape fabric.

    • @YoungLadyBusiness
      @YoungLadyBusiness  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    • @ChrisWootenNorthCarolina

      You can also lay down cardboard sit your shrubs directly on top of the cardboard (be sure to wet cardboard to point of soaking), and then add high quality raised bed mix soil around your shrubs and entire bed. Right at shrub root ball put your soil mix just up to and level with root ball.
      then mulch the whole bed at about 3” Deep with mulch over top of root ball (But Stay 2” Away from the Shrubs Trunk” with a double ground no float mulch. Lowe’s sells this type of mulch.
      I’ve been planting like this for 40 years with great success. But you do have to put the raised bed soil mix on the whole bed. By second year your shrubs will start rooting through the boxes into the ground. I had to do this because of back/spine surgery years ago. It works and saves you time and saves your back.
      Be sure to water deeply once per week to the point of soaking the whole bed, not just at the shrub. Many people try to water more frequently but not deeply for 10 minutes several times a day. The problem with the short interval watering schedule is it teaches your shrubs to Not reach deep into surrounding soil. So Water Very Deeply and saturate your beds once per week. The mulch will keep them hydrated and the plants will learn to reach deep for moisture.
      If you live in a hot southern climate you may have to water twice a week for the first month then back off to once per week.
      Happy gardening

It all looks real good, but in the years to come it will all be so beautiful and filling out! Good work! Love it all!

    Your backyard looks good 🌺 🌱🌸 🌳 !
    Suggestions:
    1. You can make compost stalls and take your sticks, leaves, and garbage and use the broken down dirt in your plant beds and future raised gardens.
    2. You can burn your sticks into in your bonfire.
    3. Look into Hugelkultur for your future raised garden beds. You use a layer of sticks and branches at the base which breaks down overtime and helps to enrich the soil. It also helps not to have buy extra soil to fill the beds.

    You are doing fine. Trial and Error. My grandmother told me not every garden will turn out like you want. It is an every changing thing. You will find things that work and those that don't. Never freak out when things die out. Just try something different. Always do your research and go from there. I am 60, been in my home since 2009. It is changing every year. Some years things work great and others it changes. I am finally getting to a point where it makes since. A lot more containers, smaller beds, more plants that can handle the heat. This world changes so much and so has the gardens we plant. Nothing last forever and so change needs to happen. You will get there and it will be great. Get ready to change that garden as the years progress with the world.

    Good luck with your new gardening adventures. Remember to add some curves in your garden, create secret garden rooms. Your property is large enough, enjoy and Use it all. Add flagstone and gravel areas, take your time, you don’t have to get everything done at once. And remember gardening is never done. Enjoy the ride

    I’ve been a Gardner for years in Georgia. Hopefully, you did some research on your investment. If you do build a raised bed garden, please note it will need 6-8 hours of full sun. Good Luck. We all learn from our mistakes & our backs. Hydrangeas will be in shock first year. Takes them a minute. Will be better next year. Don’t prune them !!

    Hi Kayla. You can use those sticks at the bottom of your raised beds to prevent buying so much soil, and it will break down and fertilize the raised beds.

    Looks amazing Kayla!! Glad you went with the look of a flower bed. If you dig a little trench around the flower beds, it should keep the mulch in place so you don’t lose too much over time. Definitely rent an augur next time y’all do a big plant job. That would save Marcus a lot time and hard work. Love all the flowers you chose. Beautiful!!

    • @YoungLadyBusiness

    Tip to easy planting that works.
    You can also lay down cardboard sit your shrubs directly on top of the cardboard (be sure to wet cardboard to point of soaking), and then add high quality raised bed mix soil around your shrubs and entire bed. Right at shrub root ball put your soil mix just up to and level with root ball.
    then mulch the whole bed at about 3” Deep with mulch over top of root ball (But Stay 2” Away from the Shrubs Trunk” with a double ground no float mulch. Lowe’s sells this type of mulch.
    I’ve been planting like this for 40 years with great success. But you do have to put the raised bed soil mix on the whole bed. By second year your shrubs will start rooting through the boxes into the ground. I had to do this because of back/spine surgery years ago. It works and saves you time and saves your back.
    Be sure to water deeply once per week to the point of soaking the whole bed, not just at the shrub. Many people try to water more frequently but not deeply for 10 minutes several times a day. The problem with the short interval watering schedule is it teaches your shrubs to Not reach deep into surrounding soil. So Water Very Deeply and saturate your beds once per week. The mulch will keep them hydrated and the plants will learn to reach deep for moisture.
    If you live in a hot southern climate you may have to water twice a week for the first month then back off to once per week.
    Happy gardening

    Dear Kayla the flower beds turned out beautiful
    If you feel that some spots look bare you can plant some Boxwood bushes as they work great as “space fillers” and are very easy to maintain.
    Also you can try bordering the beds with decorative bricks you can find at Lowes … there are many pretty patterns designs.
    The home we bought has a mature garden in which the previous owner who was an avid gardener planted about 50 different flower bushes in the 40 years she lived here.. I felt so lost in the beginning I had no idea what I was doing… three years later now I know each variety and how to take care of them.. it’s like a magic garden … we have many variety of roses including climbing roses that climb over an arbor. Each month we get different blooms of iris azalea hydrangea .. wooded hydrangea hyacinths peonies lilacs, pow pow tree, smoke tree, and so many more.
    -Look into Clematis* it’s a gorgeous huge climbing flower that loves to grow near rose bushes.
    That would look lovely climbing on your fence
    Also look into the beneficial Milk weed that attracts butterflies .. you woukd love those.
    Anyway this comment is getting too long 🤣🤚…
    You guys worked very hard on your garden and the finish product looks dreamy and will continue to be more and more magical in the years to come ❤️Keep growing❤

  • @meekyw.4010
    @meekyw.4010 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One continuous bed looks so much better. I learned a tip watching y'all put down the plastic and the pinestraw, I would've thought you needed to dig out all of the grass and remove it first. This will help me for my project. I also heard something about using old newspaper in lieu of the plastic.
    Btw, between that shed and your land you guys have a great spot for an airbnb.

    Hey Kayla & Marcus!! Ya'll doing the doggone thang out in that yard!! It's a lot of work and maintenance so slow and steady. I love all the flowers at the fence and pine straw looked better the way you did it with it filling in the whole area instead of just around. You all did a great job with planting. I have a large backyard with lots of large trees also and I know about the stick and twigs and whatever that fall from those trees. UGH! You guys are doing the right thing with putting down the weed barrier real good. Weeds will be your enemy but you are starting off right. We are in our late 50s and can't do it like you two anymore so we hire out a lot of work. I love seeing young couples build a life together and you two do an amazing job with it all.

    I suggest creating flower beds along the perimeter of the fence instead of planting in the grass. I also suggest pulling all the weeds around the trees and removing the vines that are going up the trees prior to placing the pine straw. It’s looking good! Good job!

    • @rheaa1363
      @rheaa1363 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you are going to do raised beds in your garden, the sticks and leaves can also be used in the bottom of the bed. That way, it won't take as much soil and compost to fill the bed before planting.

    I think some landscape block or bricks around the border of the plants will better define and lift up the look of the plants better.
    And since your house is white brick, if you buy some brick, spray paint it the same color as the house it will be a nice polished, consistent built in look.
