I love to develop a very detailed plan, then once I'm in the garden, my creativity overrides all plans and I just let it take over 😂💚
😂 This is how it turns out for me every time. ❤
Same 😂
I like to let the creativity flow once I'm in the garden doing the work rather then planning it on paper.
I plan it in my head - every night - that’s how i fall asleep. Never write it down. It changes every few nights and every time i order new seeds. My inspiration comes when i am actually planting, changing my mind, moving plants and replanting. Sounds chaotic but thats what works for me!!
NC, Piedmont area, Zone 8A, we’ve had a lot of rain here as well. Hurricane Helene dropped a lot of rain and it rained again this morning. It’s nothing compared to the western side of the state. Highways are still closed. Still sending prayers their way.
I plan on paper then get in the garden and change my mind or things don't fit the way they did on paper. My heart and desire to have it all is bigger than my yard.
I have tried sweet peas every which way and they never perform well for me here in zone 8b western Oregon! I’m from the UK where sweet peas always thrived in my childhood gardens, I’ll live vicariously through you Danielle!
Everything looks so beautiful in your garden ! I would love to have some of those seeds!!! I can’t wait to hear when they are available! I swear , Grace just poses for the camera. You can see her just looking at it like she knows it’s filming her!😊❤❤❤
I didn't realize dahlias get that tall! Thanks for the great information, Danielle!
Thank you Danielle, have a wonderful day!❤
Hi Danielle, sorry the oregano didn't work out for you, I agree with you to plant your hydrangea where you talked about and try the drops of Jupiter in the raised bed or a large container where you can control the water yourself. I don't like a structured plan when I garden, if something doesn't work out, I can try something else, I love to experiment with new varieties to keep the gardens interesting and fun to be in. Thanks for the dahlia seed info. your pressed flowers are so pretty, you have inspired me to go press my cosmos! btw your dahlias are gorgeous! Can't wait to see all your craft projects you talked about. 😍 Grace is so loyal to you, ❤
Thank you Danielle! You always teach us so well! Deanna
I am in the same zone, planted sweet pea in the Fall before and they were so healthy and happy come Spring. They did outperform the one I started in January. Your video just reminded me I need to do this again.
So excited to see how these plans all turn out❤The first flower I ever grew from seed is a sweet pea😍 I’m in So Cal 10a and a friend told me to plant them in fall. I do soak the seed and grow them first in root trainer trays. Then around November I plant them in the ground. They don’t grow very much but once March hits they take off!! And I also have a few plants that pop up from last year. Truly my favorite time of the year🩷❤️💜🧡🤍
Great video today! I, too, enjoy working in the garden again after the heat of August has passed. Thanks, Danielle! ❤
I live in the N W of England and we have lots of rain too 💦☔️☂️😂😂 I plan my garden in my head and never put pen to paper 🌸🌺😀😀
I can definitely imagine the hydrangeas in place of those ornamental oreganos 🥰
Thank you Danielle.🌺💚🙃
My first year to plant sweet peas in the fall! So excited! I had my husband rototill the bed, mulched it and then I started the seeds in containers. They grew like weeds and were 6 inches tall when I planted them yesterday. But then, lo and behold, the sweet peas that self seeded were ALSO appearing there sprouting everywhere and not quite as tall as my seedlings. So that tells me I could just direct seed. So very interested in your results and how it goes. Keep us posted. I am in 8b though so warmer BUT we do get some 25 degree days sometimes!
We are really liking the Aronia we planted this year developed by Mark Brand (licensed to PW)- it hugs the ground as the same says, and although rabbits could graze they are tough and can take it and take the water. The berries are blue black and bursts into fall color…
The Dahlias are looking so beautiful!
Great video. I'd love to see the pressed flower art projects like ornaments!
I direct sowed my sweet peas a couple of weeks ago, and most have sprouted. Just an experiment to see if they can make it through our winters, which are usually mild except for a week in January or February when we experience single digits for several nights in a row! Zone 7B / 8A N MS.
Love the sweet pea tip - I’m trying it too!
Excited to see how your sweet pea experiment turns out
Always inspiring! I ❤seed dahlias! It’s always a surprise to see their colors. I need to press some! So pretty!
Sweet peas just don’t last for me in NC zone 8A so this might work better.
Always enjoy your videos. I love sweet peas but they don’t seem to do very well in our hot, humid climate in central Illinois. Also we have been getting very little rain here which makes growing anything difficult. That’s why I love watching your videos. Your garden is fabulous! I love planning my gardens in my head at night when I am trying to sleep.😀
I personally love mapping my beds at the end of summer--when I can still see most of my plants. But I'm also flexible, I may adjust the plan as I plant.
I have had some sweet peas either come back or sow seed. I have enough sweet pea seeds I can try direct sowing. I’m in upstate NY 5b/6a so I will keep you posted.
Hi Danielle,
I say go for the Limettas!! I bought two Limettas earlier in the season, based on your recommendation, and I absolutely love them. They’re still producing blooms in my Northern VA, Zone 7B garden.
Love to see how excited you get when you try a new experiment 😜 Hi Grace ❤
Thanks for the sweet pea experiment. I’m going to start one of my own to see which way they grow best here.
Altanantheria is an interesting ground cover😊
Candy corn spirea could be cute! My golden oregano did the same thing in flat areas, but I have a rocky hill area and they still look great in that part of my garden.
Great to know! Thank you so much!
looking forward to see the sweet pea comparison. I just pre-soaked my seeds and direct seeded in my bed. The sprouts are already a few inches tall! Hoping to see them successfully overwinter~
Thank you! Would love to know how the sweet pea experiment did for you. I am going to try it too.
Seeing your garden still looking great put me in a better mood. Also, I enjoy your commentary while cutting back plants - shows real time of labour while still being engaging. And last, what breed is Grace? Looks like a silver lab but softer.
Have you considered going back to the idea of lady’s mantle (alchemilla mollis)? If I remember correctly the ornamental oregano came about when the lady’s mantle wasn’t available at the time in the quantities you needed for surrounding the area. I have those in a similar situation and love those there, they thrive. Your experiment taught me that if I want the ornamental oregano in my garden, it would need to be a drier spot. Always learning from you Danielle, thanks for another video.
Still high nineties and hovering around 100° in far northern CA, it won't cool off until around the time.change here usually.
Im the latter too. I go with the flow
I love your videos! Gracie loves to give you kisses. I'm going to try the sweet pea experiment with you. How fun!!! Have a great weekend Danielle!
Yes I think the hydrangeas would be a good idea on those borders. Less work and make a small "room". They will be the walls
Is your Berrgarten sage still doing well? I think they might be a nice replacement for your oregano. I think a low plant looks so pretty there. But God bless you in whatever you choose to do.
I have a section of my yard that we’re going to remove the grass. I want to plant more flowers and scrubs, mixed in with some veggies. My husband wants to know the plan. I’m pretty much stumped and now I’m open to suggestions.
I wonder until you plant the shrubs whether it be the hydrangeas or something else could you fill the space where the ornamental oregano was with some autumn flowers and grasses and perhaps some pumpkins that would complement the tones of your surrounding flowers. I like to use the antique colors in sage greens, the muted oranges ( LI cheese pumpkins ) the white ones as well. I’m going to try to find a pink Sheffield mum to add to my garden this fall. Have you ever seen these? They are beautiful!
That sounds like a great idea. Thank you! I’ll check out those mums❤️❤️
Wish I’d had good luck with the Limetta Hydrangeas. Mine were eaten by some bug here in the Pacific Northwest. 😢😢😢
I’m so sorry to hear that!
I start with a plan on paper but then the garden itself dictates what goes where. I also buy lots of sale plants and work around them.
🙏🏻
Did you say the tall flowers in the back ground are Dahlias? Beautiful
Hi friend! Yes❤️ All the single dahlias are my dahlia seed collection. The large decorative dahlias in the far back at Radegast.
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm beautiful!
❤
Once you plant oregano, you're going to have it coming up all over your garden for years to come. Also, miss seeing your book nook. The tall dahlias hide that structure from view. Don't know if that's what you were going for, but shouldn't it be a showcase structure? Just wondering.
How do you and when do you prune your different hydrangeas
Be careful! Mice love sweet pea seeds. Sarah Raven says she soaks her seeds in seaweed fertilizer and it puts the mice off.
Great tip! Thank you!
im in spring thebulbbs
the mouse is going hawire
No paper 🤣that would be a waste 🍁🍂. Thanks
❤️🌹💐
Danielle, how do I buy some of your Dahlia seeds?
Hi friend! I plan to gift them in the future. I believe rooted cuttings of Saving Grace and Martha Miller will be available through Jung Seed next year.
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm Thank you and have a great day!
