      Me too! I remember her earlier home tour. She seems like such a warm, hospitable hostess - totally in love with the concept of “home.”

    Betty is a wonderful hostess and a real natural speaking on camera. She’s not reporting. She’s truly sharing. Her anecdotal comments and humor sprinkled throughout are just right. I really feel as if I’m a guest getting a one-on-one tour!

    I love Bettie Bearden Pardee, I've been a follower of hers for years. She is so gracious and knowledgeable about all things gardening and she's delightful to listen to. Much love Homeworthy, this was an excellent show. Thank you Bettie, love you.

      I agree. This was so uplifting to view and so beautifully filmed. Bettie must be one of the most revered, knowledgeable people around - I almost missed it as it was found in a little used site. Thank goodness I came upon it. Thank you, thank you Bettie and a wonderful New Year to you and your family.

    As Bettie was talking I kept thinking, "I know that voice." Finally it occurred to me, she sounds a lot like Jane Fonda. When she said she was from California it all made sense! What a lovely tour from an accomplished woman, thank you!

    After seeing the majestic interiors in a previous episode, it was delightfully refreshing to see Bettie so engaged in her glorious garden and so comfortably dressed. While she is most elegant a lady, she is a true gardener in the best way.

    How absolutely beautiful. The espalier “fence” is truly unique and gorgeous. As for the deer and rabbits... I just think of them as God’s way of keeping gardeners humble!

  • @rosehill1595

    What a delightful garden tour! Totally drool-worthy! She created a timeless European-inspired garden, perfect for entertaining. I particularly liked the roses and the white garden. That fabulous greenhouse aka party glass house is the icing on the cake. Love that garden bench! I can relate to seeing something decades ago and making it a reality many years later. It is a great statement piece in her private courtyard. She comes across as a genuinely lovely, gracious lady with a beautiful spirit which is perfectly reflected in her garden. Impressive and inspiring!

    In the midwest we use dry Cayenne pepper...we sprinkle around all our plants (does not harm the plant)....bunnies hate it. You would need buckets for your garden but it works like a charm (just lay around the perimeter of your garden)!!! ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS GARDEN!!!! Bettie is a STUNNING WOMAN and needs her own gardening channel!!!!! For years I have incorporated herbs with my garden landscape....it's incredible!

      What a terrific suggestion. I wonder if it aerates all over everything with a gust of wind?

    • @barbiedoll6530
      @barbiedoll6530 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@annsmith7207 yes it does and you have to reapply it...but it doesn't hurt any plants. apply at night when bunnies are active at night in early morning. We actually use it because it's not harmful to pets either.

    • @larrywakeman4371
      @larrywakeman4371 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ohhhhh NO! Cayenne??? That can seriously burn a bunny rabbit's eyes! I wouldn't use that approach! :{ !!!!

    I absolutely love this episode. I found it so inspiring, and was just full of ideas. I have never thought about bringing Hostas indoors. SO clever! At first I thought a 36 minute garden tour ? And at the end, I felt it wasn't long enough, just full of inspiration, tips, and knowledge. Totally inspired me to be a little more elegant in my own garden, Miss Bettie has wonderful taste and such an eye. Loved this.

    I truly enjoy watching you weather it be inside your lovely home or out in that amazing garden. I did have rabbits which are adorable but they somehow thought my garden was a huge salad bar! Try spreading shavings of Irish spring bar soap the green kind. I started doing this several years ago and have had great success keeping those little rabbits out. I replenish about every 3 weeks. Hope that helps.❤

    In addition to everything you are doing to keep the rabbit damage to a minimum, I sprinkle milorganite around the perimiter of my gardens. It keeps the deer and rabbits away. They don't like the scent and they move on. It works for me. I grow lots of things they would love to eat. Thank you for the beautiful tour of your lovely property.

    I had the deer eating my roses to extinction and I had had enough. Also the rabbits ruined my smaller bushes. I went to a hardware store and the gentlemen there turned me onto a spray you spray around the perimeter of your garden. First time, you do it once a week. Next time once a month. I have not lost one rose to those rodents..it works!!!!! Try it out. I don’t remember the actual name, but it is deer and rabbit spray. About 17.00 a bottle. Go get you some

    If I may suggest in your lovely garden, try Zepherin-Droughin from 1968 in France- THORNLESS and smells like heavenly raspberries! You will love them - I have had mine for twenty seven years- itis a gorgeous climber. (P.S.: your rabbits will appreciate the thornless rose, too!) WONDERFUL gardens! Kimberly
