Oh my gosh! I can't believe how much you accomplished in one year! It looks so beautiful and gives me so much inspiration to expand one of my garden beds! Thank you Danielle!
Sunny and cold in Detroit today. A great day to watch your video again. 101 days until I return to my cottage in Mid Michigan and start playing in my flower beds again.
Always anticipate the evolution of plants when creating a massif, without forgetting the rendering in the different seasons... we learn by making mistakes 👩🏻🌾😉
You created a beautiful garden. I love the design and how you thought it all out. I really love seeing it from the infant stage to maturity. I also realize that a garden is forever changing and it will morph into something of it's own over time.

Oh oh ohhh!!!!! What a cozy garden!! I felt so comfortable, warm and cozy watching this. What an absolutely stunning transformation! Wow! You’ve got a great sense of style and flow with plants. I really love the expanse of hydrangeas, I mean there’s a point where it’s almost just a sea of pink hydrangeas! So cool, thank you for sharing this with everyone!
For vivid late blooming flowers, coneflowers can't be beat. Echinasea purpurea. Your work is outstanding.
I love the secretive feel of this garden it gave me so much inspiration
I love your comments about Grace! I feel like that about my dogs Oliver and Penny.
The 🐕 and the 🐈 walked through the tunnel. 🥰
Hardy Asters were a winner for me during that time but I'm zone 5. The honey bees love them too. Loved this journey.
ROSES! Roses are steady spring thro fall color. Personally love English roses. The fragrance, the big peony like blooms and lots are very disease resistant anymore. I am waiting for you to discover the beauty of English roses, Danielle! 😂
Caryopteris is another late summer blooming shrubs.
I love the ever changing garden! You have such a charming garden & I love how you share it! And beautiful Grace too!
Wow, your garden is just absolutely gorgeous!
I love your hydrangea garden. I think you can never have enough hydrangeas!!!! I live in Muncy,PA north of you. I love caryopteris for august pink and blue blooms! I have a variegated leafed one the blooms a periwinkle blue, several pink ones, one with lime yellow colored leaves with blue flowers and several dark blue flowered ones. They bloom in August and also make great fillers for bouquets. This past fall I found some at my local garden center on sale and I bought 9 just to plant for cutting. Can’t wait for spring!,
Wow, from ,when you have started, To now, WOW, Grace is such a good friend. I love how its all in closed, if i was walking, along outside your place , id see little bits, and know, id just want to sit in there or garden, You and Grace, and Husband sometimes. have done a amazing job, A+ on your report card.
Encore Azalea Autumn series! They have many with pink flowers that re-bloom starting in August and their foliage turns a beautiful deep pinky-purple in fall. I have one in my zone 6a garden and it is stunning with my hydrangeas.
hi I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Oh how lucky all of you are that live in zone 6 and above, and can grow those Encore Azaleas! I'm in zone 5b. To have an azalea bloom in late summer... wow, must be fantastic.
I Love that you just keep packing in the plants!!❤ I loooove a full garden🎉
Little Joe Pye weed is a nice pink to dusty pink color during August in my Zone 6b garden.
Oh my goodness! So gorgeous and yes..Heaven on earth must be a hydrangea garden.
Those peruvian daffodils! ❤
Thank you for encouraging gardening TH-camrs such as myself, especially new ones.
Planted ‘Golden Flame’ honeysuckle, blooms spring through fall, for tons of humming birds and bees as well as other small birds. Grows well in zone 5-6. It needs sturdy support for height. A favorite.
So beautiful. Love your hydrangeas.
This garden in already looking so gorgeous. Imagining how it'll look when the roses are in full bloom. Really beautiful!
I love that: "this is heaven on earth" and it looks like it! I aspire to have heaven on earth too! Thanks for sharing! I only started last year and felt lost so I am really excited for this next spring season. I hope to create some beautiful beds that I can enjoy too.
I think this is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. It is heaven 🤣😍
I'm so glad I found your channel! I'm also in zone 6b. Last year I succession planted out my zinnias and had blooms into October, I plant my own seeds of cool toned pinks, deep to very light blush colors. I deadhead my pink lemonade cosmos and they lasted as long. I also noticed several bushes around my area that looked like pink lilacs, covered in blooms, and discovered it's crape myrtle. They take a couple years to establish but they are so lovely, I'm putting a couple out this spring. Thank you for sharing your gardening!
What a fun video, it is so inspiring! I would suggest Pow-Wow Wild Berry coneflowers and regular purple cornflowers to add pink and purple from July-August. Coneflowers are long blooming and add great pops of color. The purple will naturally be taller than the pink pow-wows, so you could add both and gain a couple of layers of colors in your garden. Happy New Year!💗🤍💜
I struggled with Pow Wow Wild Berry this past year. I think I didn't have it in enough sun. It seems like a plant that wants all-day sun and the light was too dappled where I had mine.
🤓📝 what else!!???
Your flowers are beautiful! I have a Japanese Spirea and it blooms so pretty in the summer and you can trim the dead flowers off when they are done blooming and it will bloom again. I live in southern Mi.
Dog comment made me all teary eyed 🥹 I miss my Mojo ❤️🙏🏽
You have done an excellent job. I recommend one thing though. Please set the feet of your Arbors in concrete. If not, the metal will rot over a few seasons. This is a fairly easy fix i think. Use blocks placed under the bottom cross bars and away from the feet, of the Arbor. This will brace the arbor from moving. Dig holes about 12 inches deep and wide around where the feet are. Fill holes with concrete (Dry Post Mix). Adjust the arbor height if need be by shimming with wood, sticks or whatever off of the original blocks. Old magazines even work well. You now can add water. You don't need a lot, maybe a gallon or so. Don't worry over a little time the concrete will absorb what it needs and set up hard. Adjust the height of the postmix to be just above the soil after your initial watering. Yes, Use it dry, and mound up to the feet of the Arbor. Mist lightly and several times. leave undisturbed and it will set. You can get as fancy as you like here You can do one side of each Arbor at a time. Within a few days you will be set.
Yes,ilove it when the pets get in front of the camera during your filming.I aso think Grace is ready for her close up😊

I have Weigela Wine & Roses, a burgundy color foliage with pink blooms
I'm in a northern desert zone 6 and I lean hard on crape myrtle, rose of sharon, and coneflowers for color in those summer months
Here I am in January after a beautiful snowfall dreaming about my garden. I love your garden. I planted 4 hydrangeas last year. I hope they survive our Nova Scotia, Canadian winter .
Great job!!! Beautiful & Heavenly! It's very peaceful! I agree about the Chocolate Lab they are such a blessing & the best friends you could ever want! ❤🌻
I love your palette. It’s very relaxing and tranquil. 😊
Your garden is amazing,so gorgeous
2:57 my goodness that cat is massive 😂
Lovely. I like your combination of showing and narrating after-the-fact. Very informative for some starting from scratch with a new, very small garden this spring!
Zone 6b south central PA here….love my geranium Rozanne borders for non stop bloom all summer into fall as I am gardening atop my seepage bed and have no shade. Lots of coneflowers and shrubs. Loved your video!
absolutely beautiful!! I really appreciate seeing the seasonal progression of your garden. The apples growing through the arches is so EMMA. LOVE it all!
Absolutely beautiful! What an incredible transformation
I think it’s perfect all year long , gives you a different mood each month . Just beautiful ❤
You are a true inspiration! I'm in the process of expanding one of my flower beds. Just to start the process of removing sod was very intimidating. Thank you for being so fearless in the garden and making your your garden dreams come true.
Wow, what a progression! That garden looks instantly established with the nature tree and arches to add height, beautiful!
To extend the hydrangea season, you could consider viburnum which looks so much like hydrangea but flowers earlier in spring.
Thanks for the walk through, great job 👍
Mature tree! Whoops!
@@KatesGardenDo you know you can edit your comments by clicking the three little dots to the right?
@@cynthiafisher9907 yes
I planted many hydrangeas as well - I have 7 little limes as a border, I have 3 other panicle hydrangea and one lace cap - I love them, they give a lot of bang for your buck! Also the flowers last and last, like you - I need more!
Oh its so fabulous in the autumn. Well done
The arbors are amazing! I too struggle with planting for the changing seasons. Love the progression video from winter. Helps me plan my new flowerbed! Following your progress 😊
This video has me completely excited for spring! Thank you!! I just love your property and watching it transform. :)
I suggest Roses, dwarf or mini pink Crape Myrtles (look for the cold hardy ones), reblooming Azaleas, reblooming Lilacs, Dahlias, Rose of Sharon Hibiscus, and pink Sun Parasol giant Mandevilla vine for an annual climber.
Love the pastel colors, so relaxing.😊
I am in zone 6b in Kentucky where I enjoy the beautiful pinks and purples from crape myrtles from mid July through September.
I am a southern PA gardner as well, I lean on knock out pink roses for bright pink color also sedums... just found video. Great Job!
If you're looking for dark foliage, I really like my Wine Ninebarks. Gives that nice dark color all season, plus it'll have some pinks to match in the spring/early summer. I absolutely love this transformation and am inspired to create a room in my garden.
Hello I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
I loved this video. It’s amazing how much you accomplished in one season.
I absolutely love your garden. I wish I had such a green thumb. I love hydrangeas. I'm learning, thank you for sharing 😊
The garden is beautiful and I love seeing it from the start and progress thru the summer. Thanks for sharing
hi I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
That sunny June day that you mentioned was heaven on earth literally took me there I can't even describe the excitement it filled me with I cannot wait to really start watching my garden come back to life and get out there and plant more things!! Thankyou for getting me pumped for warmer days😁😁🥰🥰
This morning, as I was looking out the window at snow and dreaming about plants, I thought…I should create a hydrangea room like Danielle… I have the perfect spot for the arbors, I even have an apple tree right next to it. Then your video popped up. Serendipity!
That’s amazing! Your garden beautiful. It’s my dream. I will do the same with trails, I never think about 3 pieces. That’s is good idea! Thank you!
So gorgeous! I actually gasped when you got to the fall footage. Well done, Danielle! It's funny because I often go for variety and would never even think to put so many of the same type of plant in one place but you have inspired me. Maybe add some more glads bc they looked amazing? Other ideas to add: Lupin, Astilbe, Iris, Bearded Iris, Lillies or clumps of bunny tails around the edges. Maybe try Thunbergia and Clematis or Jasmine for climbing additions. Thank you for the inspiration!
Hello I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
First of all, your garden is indeed heaven! So beautiful!❤ I live in a medieval castle in the Netherlands and I have a very big garden with different kinds of garden rooms. I have a white garden who blooms almost whole year round white. And a garden around the moat which is filled in from yellow to deep violet. And a garden within the walls which we want to have pink, purple and blue’s and we fill in the gaps with geraniums and large pink poppy’s and lots of all kinds of roses. We have 50 different kind of roses in the garden and they bloom till it is going to freeze.
If you want to have pink till the beginning of winter, roses are very beautiful with hydrangeas! Also very beautiful and very well growing in a humid garden as yours are begonias. They do like a bit of shade and well moisterd soil.
I love your garden very very much, it sure is a dream of heaven! 🌺🌸🌼🌹🥀🌷 edit: for the early spring we planted a lot of tulip bulbs and other bulbs, we plant them in autumn.
Do you have a You Tube showing your gardens? It sounds beautiful!
@@lovepeace6346 my son will start that soon😀
This is just amazing!
I wish you could help me turn my yard into that little piece of heaven like that!!
What vision you have!!
Wow what a beautiful garden you have made, just love it! If you don’t want your Annabel’s to be as floppy as they are, you can cut the stems to half size half way down the growing season. They will grow more bushy and flower later with smaller flowers.
i worked ten years at a garden center lots of fun hardwork one of the many examples of wow is i designed all the cleamtis that just were done 3 years in a pot its plant or im not growing so at that point i design a arbor i did interwine once a week and deadhead looks amazing with different bloom cycles one to two will be blooming yet the next month it filters to the next color . your trumpet i had a problem with nematoads u know by looking at the roots not much u can do but i feel for u had moved a rozana geranium on a move to a new place still grumpy i try a new spot in tge spring Happy Spring countdown 🥳🌸🌷
Thank you for showing the progression. For shade color i love coral bells, hostas, abd coleus because of their colorful foilage. For EARLY spring, hellebores are a must. I am dry and hot in summer, zone 5 but i love catmint , the lavendar blooms are beautiful. When cut down it can have 2 to three flushes. Also veronica, bee balm, and hybiscus have beautiful colors. I love the thought of your hydrangea rooms.
WOW. You have such a perfect sense of feng shui.
What an amazing, magical place!! I just love all the things you do and would love to see another look back video this winter!
hi I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
So, so lovely, Danielle!🥰
Oh this was wonderful! Thank you! ❤
Love the colors of pannicle hydrangea in late summer and fall.
Also dread it lol, means winter is coming.
What a magical garden! So relaxing and beautiful in a natural way. Nothing looks contrived. Love the color palette.
How beautiful! I'm gleaning many ideas from your gardening. I'm in the beginning of building my gardens.
Hello from France, your garden is really inspiring! Thanks for sharing! I would not have dared an arch but after watching yours, i really think about it. Merci!
This is just so inspiring....I'm starting from a large backyard with nothing! I need Ideas and this was a great kick. Just Beautiful. Thank you!
I agree with you completely - I prefer color to a ton of simple white blooms. I always see Laura from Garden Answer planting 9 barks ~ these bring the dark burgundy foliage to areas that need that color. I have not personally grown it, but it is an option. I only have a small experience with hydrangeas, but this year I plan on planting a bunch more. I need to keep them all within my fenced area, because the deer are so prevalent. Good luck!
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there??
Beautiful.
Thank you! I loved seeing this overview creating your hydrangea room garden, and how it looks through the seasons! It is so beautiful and full. We added some flower beds to our front entry walkway and lawn, but they need more. I think hydrangeas would add the romantic look I am after.
I also meant to say that I find asters fill in that color gap in late summer. I have a bright pink one (from seed) and a deep purple one (New England). The purple coneflowers also keep blooming from summer until frost.
Such a soul satisfying, intimate, treasure box of a garden! You definitely inspired me to plant more hydrangeas this past year, Danielle! I'm not as careful or avid a gardener as you. In my Z4 there's more to struggle against as to weather & critters. But watching your videos gives me enough inspiration to get back out there & keep going!
An eclipse big leaf hydrangea has dark foilage and pink blooms. I think it blooms all summer. But dont quote me on that. You garden is so beautiful. Great job!
Cannot tell you how much I LOVED this video!! I've really enjoyed this design and love seeing a progression video on it plus Grace following you around and running through the arbor 🥰🐶
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there??
Thank you so much for putting this together! I have really loved to see the changes each month, so this was so much fun to watch! I’m extending some garden beds in my backyard this year and this has been such an inspiration!
Watching your videos inspire me so much. I love hydrangeas but hydrangeas don't seem to love me and my garden. I need to be better at taking care of them. I gave my husband a warning that I'm buying a bunch of hydrangeas this year.
A smoke bush might look nice in the middle of the outer bed. Just a nice contrast to what's there. Also, some Garden Flock would make for a great addition.
Lots of love and hard work show brilliantly in this video. I hope to see more. Thank you.
Супер!!!! Так красиво, что хочется смотреть и смотреть!!! Браво!!!👏👏👏
I love videos like this. I am trying to design my garden working through one "room" at a time. It is so hard to envision what it will look like through the seasons. And preventing plants from shading each other at maturity is tricky too. The hydrangea and salvia amistad has shaded all of my hardy mums and asters.
Wow! This looks so beautiful!
WOAW ! Thanks for this Beautifully garden you share. The nature is so healthy poetic.🙏🏾❤️
This footage was so inspiring!! Some of the shots you got were just breathtaking and I love the arbor for the flower tunnel that you picked.
Very pretty. I wish I had your green thumb for Hydrangeas.
wonderfull transformation....
I “liked” just for the doggo comment being her companion. But the garden is fabulous.
Your garden is so beautiful. I love the way you created that height with the arbor/pathway.
Your garden is just spectacular. We gardeners always bring happiness and pleasure to one another. I too, love having my doggies, Oliver and Lousky outside with me. They act as helpers (digging, barking and being my body guards). And yes, those hydrangeas made me become a new subscriber, absolutely, (though I garden in Zone 9B). Happy gardening, fellow gardener. Can’t wait to binge watch your other videos. (After working in my own garden, of course). 😊
Lovely garden design with beautiful hydrangeas and more. Suggestion for dark red leaved shrub such as Diabolo ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius Diabolo, zones 3 to 7), a big, wide-ranging shrub that makes a tough, easy addition almost anywhere, although its color will fade to green. Diabolo grows to 8 feet tall and wide, so give it space or prune it back hard - ninebark can take it. Diabolo's parent species is native to the eastern half of North America. Enjoy 2023!!!
10:06 Hi Danielle, you may know already, but just in case… You could add a hydrangea Eclipse, she’s gorgeous with purple foliage and dark pink flowers. It might be perfect for the spot you mentioned.
BTW, thanks for the lovely content you share with us, it’s very inspiring. I’ve learned a lot from you ❤
What a fun tour showing the progress of the hydrangea room and that beautiful arbor. Your yard is amazing and such an inspiration. Blessings! 💗
Hello I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Danielle, I certainly have a love of hydrangeas and even with placing them in pots on my deck, because I know at the end of the season I can add them to my garden ! Your hydrangea garden is indeed heaven! 🌸❤️🇨🇦
Hello I love your Hydrangeas! What a beautiful garden.
Thank you for sharing. First time to come to your garden by video. Blessings Jane
