Thank you for the video Jenny. I love that like me you are learning about new plants and trees, although you're a lot more knowledgeable than me. Finding your channel very helpful as I'm helping a friend with planting up her garden. She thinks I'm an expert 😂. In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king. Thank you for the information and inspiration. I liked the chickens too.
🤣Love that! So funny how people assume you know everything but I’ve barely scratched the surface, it’s definitely a case of the more you know, the more you know you don’t know!!! I learn something new every day and all the comments in the channel teach me so much too, nice we can all learn for each other and share our passion. Thanks for watching Jenny
It's a very different and rather magical sort of place, certainly for someone who lives in southern California. I liked that is was nothing like the more "usual" British gardens. It certainly has a character all its own.
WOW! Thank you so much for taking us along for the BEAUTIFUL Garden Tour with commentary. Showing us the maps & overviews were a great visual idea. Lovely displays of plants, flowers, shrubs, trees, hard scapes, pergolas, arbors, water features, and even Fall decorating ideas! Very cute clay pot couple amongst the display of pumpkins… Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed it, I was blown away, there was so much to it! The RHS gardens that I’ve seen so far are incredible and of such a high standard. I really must get to Wisley next year! Thanks for your support Jenny’s
Well another really cool British garden tour. Love the way it was layed out. I'm usually partial to the wow factor parts of the garden with bright flowers but, I have to say that stumpery was a real beauty and very unique. Thanks for a lovely walk in this wonderful place. 💖
There are many eucalyptus that grow above the snow line here in Australia. Most respond well to being coppiced, if you really want one. Further they look quite good that way
Wow! What a wonderful tour. I'm trying to find a small evergreen tree for privacy, but they all seem a bit too big. I've seen some trees with tight, dense leaves, shaped into a mushroom head, in my area, in NZ. Do you know what these might be? I'm was going for a climbing rose like Woollerton hall rose but I'm unsure whether that's the right thing to do....and yew trees seem a little too thin. Any ideas would be appreciated. Loved this wonderful adventure. Thanks so much, Jo.
Hi Jo For a small mushroom shaped tree with tight, small leaves try ligustrum Delavayanum (Delavay Privet) which gets to about 1.5m. Prunus lusitanica (Portuguese laurel) is a bit bigger, we have Portuguese laurel in our garden and I love them and really recommend them. They get cut once a year and can be kept to a desired size and shape. We need to give them their annual prune so hopefully I will do a video on them in the coming weeks but you can see them on the ‘best evergreen tree video’ I did and there may be some other ideas too! Magnolia grandiflora might be nice too, lovely glossy leaves with brown undersides and the bonus of flowers too! Photinia fraseri (Red Robin) is a similar size to the laurel and can be kept at a manageable mushroom shape of about 2m, it has the advantage in that the new fresh foliage is red. Regarding a climbing rose, I think a Wollerton Old Hall is an excellent choice. Mine, which was only planted earlier this year,is beautiful already, great scent and the colour is stunning. Hope that helps, Happy gardening Jenny
Thank you for the lovely tour! Stumpery was interesting. Do you have any tips on how to keep the stumps pest free…would termites or carpenters ants be a problem?
I’m certainly no expert on how to manage a stumpery but I think the idea is that they are their own mini ecosystem and although insects would be attracted to the rotting wood, they would then attract their own predators such as birds. It’s an innovative way to bring some life to the garden and hopefully over time the balance between too many of a particular insect would sort itself out. Hope that helps Jenny
Thanks for the tour. Didn't even know it existed

Yes, you’re right, it was quite different and there was so much to it!

AND, the Yew hedges\topiaries were incredible! WOW, just WOW!
Amazing gardens ,you must go home with a head full of ideas. Thanks for tour 💐
Yes. Lacking time to implement them all!

Funny to see the liquidambar trees... Here in GA they are a total weed!
Oh really, that is funny, one man’s weed is another man’s flower!

Thank you, I will look into this! I currently have two in pots which I use for flower arranging perhaps I’ll put them in the ground
Thank you

These gardens are stunning!!!!! Do you know what the Rose name was that created those huge hips?????
No, sorry I didn’t see a name anywhere but they were gorgeous weren’t they?
As big as tomatoes!
Thank you for watching
