I think I speak on behalf of all of your subscribers that we ABSOLUTELY want to see more of your mother’s yard/secret garden. Your videos are a respite to the hustle and grind culture we live in. Thanks for sharing your love of cottage gardening with the world. You have inspired me to create my own sweet cottage garden!
So agree
Me too
Of course we are interested in seeing more of your beautiful homescapes!
Thank you for the feedback
LOL, that's what I was thinking. Does he really need to ask? We are hooked :-).
Yes yes yes!!! Pleeeeeease
And where you found the metal obelisk, those are wonderful additions. In Joy
@@vivianking8143 I made them. I need to do a video on that.
It's like watching a symphony come together.. the colors, the flowers, your narration, back ground music.. everything is soo rich ! I felt that I went back in time and was watching Monet in action ! I am addicted to your channel. Love the cardinal and bunnies too ❤
I’m humbled by the comparison. Giverny is leagues above my garden.
Well said!!!
I'm a 71yr old gardening artist, and I get so excited whenever you put out a new video. I'm here for all the info, the visuals, the production, the art, design and I'd love a complete tour of your house! I love old and vintage objects, especially when they are used in creative and quirky ways...and I absolutely enjoy the storyteller that you are! I can't tell you how amazing your productions are, and I just want you to know that I recognize the extraordinarily hard work that must be involved. Thank you so much for all you do!!!!
Totally agree!! His illustrations are such a nice touch too
Yes. Absolutely.
I concur
Couldn't agree more with you 🫶🏻👍🏻
I would love to see the rest of the garden and I would love to see a full tour of your home. Thanks for sharing these great videos.
Thank you. I am planning to do more interior design videos as well. Thanks for letting me know of your interest through the comments.
Please continue to post about the changes in the garden. I especially love your drawings of ideas for the space. So creative and inspirational! Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Your videos are always a feast for the eyes. I always look forward to tours of your garden and your mother's, and also to hearing your design perspective.
Thank you. Would tours of public gardens with my design explanation also interest you?
@@suburbanhomesteadyes! I love tours of beautiful gardens, both in person and virtually.
@@suburbanhomestead YES!!
Yes, great idea!
It's amazing how much planning, artistry, and work goes into all of your videos. I love them.
Glad you like them!
More please 🙏 Your videos are such a treat. I normally multitask while listening to videos but for yours I sit down and enjoy. Thank you for all that you do!
Thank you for letting me know and for the greatest compliment I could get as a video maker.
I stumbled onto your channel for the veggie growing tips, and feel like I stepped into a graduate seminar on art, music, and prose, and I am simply enchanted. Thank you.
It's been quite a while since I've relaxed so much watching a video. I've only watched a quarter of the video so far but I just wanted to say thank you for showing us your lovely garden and sharing wisdom in your soothing voice.
I'm so glad! My intention has been to craft a moment of inspiration and relaxation.
Looking forward to seeing more. Enjoy all your videos.
I absolutely love your videos. I have learn so much, they are so informative. You put so much time and effort in to your gardens and videos it really shows.
You're the only creator that I know of that specifically talks about English cottage gardens. I do love that you've done a wide variety of different types of videos, walking people through how to grow different plants., How to start seeds etc. I also really appreciate that you do everything on a budget but care about the aesthetic. No one else does what you do, so please keep doing it.
Thanks for the specific feedback. It helps me understand the aspects that appeal the most in the videos
My mom is finally letting me grow my own flowers and veggies this year in the garden, watching this just made me more excited to do so!! Absolutely beautiful garden
That is awesome. Hope you have a blast growing things
Lucky mum to have you wanting to add beauty to your house. Hope it all is fun and beautiful.
Your videos are works of art, as are your gardens. Please show us all the garden beds there and on your own property. I am very interested in the decor of your beautiful house. Will you ever film a painting video? As another artist I’m really interested in your process!
I absolutely love your channel. :) I purchased a 1943 home last year complete with chain link fence, and you are helping me understand how to plan the space. I already knew I lean to cottage-core, and you are affirming that interest for me in spades! Your filming is beautiful as well; thank you!
I think it would be great for your channel if you did garden tours of other gardens as well (maybe ones you enjoy, maybe ones you would want to improve on) or if you have client's gardens to return to every years you would have non stop flow of content. You provide a unique insight into gardening that most landscapers lack, leaning more into the artistic side that I would have never known about from other contractors. It really opened my eyes on the possibilities of landscaping that can be implemented.
Oh my goodness. That conduit hollyhock support cage is incredible! I hope there's more video of that... 😍
Outstanding as always! Thank you for the inspiration and the beautiful colors, from those of us still stuck in winter-like grey skies ... ❤❤
My goal was to precisely allow people to dream of summer right now. Happy to know you enjoyed that.
You don't ever need to ask us, if we would like other videos of this beautiful landscape!! Your videos are soooo inspirational and informative.............. *Thank You!*
I appreciate the effort and attention to detail you put into each video. The garden is certainly worth “a tin of biscuits”. 🌷 I would love to see more of your videos, on any topic! Thank you!
I was just thinking the other day that I hadn't see a video from you for a while. This season by season tour was wonderful. I so appreciate your artist's eye, and how you share your knowledge of color theory in specific ways. The additional theme graphics make this garden tour a real treat. I like to shape small ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennial vines to provide balance and structure (as well as much needed shade) here in Southern California. They key concepts you share can be replicated with drought tolerant plants, including those that work in the South of France, Italy, and Australia. Bougainvillea, stattice, rosemary, lavender, 'rock roses', flowering sages, and even some cacti/succulents can stand in for more traditional cottage garden plants. Currently I have red nasturtiums, alyssum, California poppies, and freesias growing great, and all of the rosemary (used as a landscape plant here) in the neighborhood is full of blue flowers. The bees are so happy. No snakes here, but skunks and raccoons love to dig up everything. Hawks, owls, and coyotes mean I rarely see a wild rabbit. It's great to see and hear about garden beauty and challenges from other parts of the world. I'd love to see more! :)
It’s good to know that the information I share can indeed be applied elsewhere. That was a concern I’ve always had, considering people’s situations are so different.
Your videos are like your paintings. Multi-layered, creative and elevated. I will watch everything you put out. Yes to all!
I love your channel. Your a true artist in several forms. Please continue I look forward to watching all your content. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the kind words.
What a gorgeous cottage garden, and so complimentary to the pretty house! The crepe myrtle was spectacular. Yes please - would love to see the back garden also!
Siloe: Visual artist, graphic artist, digital artist, videographer, gardener, land scape designer, teacher - you are so talented and always so impeccably dressed! Thank you for sharing all you have to offer the world. You are truly inspiring.
Yes Please! I would love to see the whole garden process! Love your videos!
So lovely you have nestled your mom in a paradise. She must be a very special lady. I live in Maryland too and gave upon hollyhocks due to rust issues. Thanks for sharing this seasonal journey! 🌸🌸🌸🌱🌱🌱🕊️
Looks beautiful! Let's see the rest!
Thanks for letting me know. I hope a lot of viewers ask for the tour in the back as well.
your videos are always so beautiful, better and better each time, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you so much! I hope it’s worth the wait since it just takes exponentially more time to collect and edit gardening videos that tell a complete story. I’m only able to do because of the support of all of you.
What a transformation! From ordinary to spectacular!
I must confess each year I myself get surprised by the change, probably by how much of an ugly duckling it is during winter.
I seldom comment on TH-cam! But, I have been captivated and drawn into your channel, Siloé. I love everything that you produce. We recently moved house (I live in the UK), and the garden is terribly neglected. The lawn is weedy, thick and unpleasant. The soil is horrible - heavy clay. The shrubs are woody and deep-rooted, however - I am inspired by your videos. The gentle touch to the landscape without overly organising, the bursts of greenery, the naturalness, everything. I love your 'how to' videos, your 'classes', the art footage, the moments of despair - it makes one feel like you aren't a superhero gardner ;) and mainly, making do and mend attitude that comes with a low income. Anything you produce is worth watching, in my opinion. I'm just so happy to have discovered your channel and will be taking inspiration to create my own cottage garden. Thank you so much for sharing your world.
Of course we'd love to see more of the back "secret garden"!!! This was a fascinating video - to be able to see the change month by month is beautiful and informative. I also particularly enjoy the layout animation and how to translates into real life, as well as the animation of different design possibilities. Thank you for your hard work!
Commenting from Romania. You made my day with all the beautiful display of flowers and made me dream to hacking a garden of my own someday! Until then, balcony space and working lot will do the trick. Thank you for your inspiration!
You are my biggest inspiration! I love hearing your ideas and seeing how you bring everything together. I’m like a sponge soaking up all the knowledge you share. I’m tempted to grab my gardening notebook every time I watch your videos! They are worth the wait, a true work of art. Thank you for creating these videos for us!
You are an amazing fellow & I love your dreamy, secret cottage garden!! 💗🌸🌼✨🌷💐🌞
I have been waiting with bated breath for your newest post & as always, your video did not disappoint! You are a true artist in every sense of the word. I can’t wait to see what you have planned for this year, including a tour of the rest of your garden. Thank you for everything that you do - you are a great inspiration to many & I bet your parents are incredibly proud of you 💝
Thank you so much and I’m happy to hear you are interested in seeing what I have to show for the other areas.
The pacific northwest (Oregon and Washington) both have absolutely perfect climates for spring/summer/fall cottage gardens. :) I think most of the west coast can have fantastic gardens like this but maybe a bit more "hands on" for watering needs. Love your content!
Yes they truly do! I lived there for a year and saw the most gorgeous flowers that last sooo long during spring time. I can’t grow the same spring flowers from there to here in the south in Tennessee 😔 Our spring is so short and it becomes hot and humid 😔
@@lovingsunshine3515 I relocated from Oregon to SC recently so I totally relate. It will be a big learning curve to figure out what does well here in the heat and humidity.
@@NorthToSouthChannel I don’t like the cost of living out there in the PNW but I so miss the landscapes and how green everything is. We were stationed at the military base there in Tacoma, WA and explored as much as we could. I just couldn’t believe all the gorgeous flowers and the wildflowers growing all over Mt Rainier. Hiking in Tennessee is so boring to me now 🤣🤭 But I bet it’s nice to swim in the warm beach in SC now bc I could never do it out there in the PNW even if it was in July or Aug🥶🤣
@@NorthToSouthChannel you can still grow a lot of flowers. But you’ll have to say goodbye to the tulips and hydrangeas. Tulips lasted for over a month it seemed like in WA and hydrangeas lasted all the way through fall. I’ll plant some under the trees where it’s shaded but our tulips and daffodils only last about 2 weeks here in northeast Tennessee or less if we have a heat wave.
Yes! Relocated to Western Washington from Florida and have discovered I don’t actually have a black thumb after all! Just all my favorites were too difficult to grow in the sandy FL soil. Another thing I love about the Pacific Northwest vs FL- NO POISONOUS SNAKES! Once you cross over the Cascades it’s a different story but where I am in the Skagit Valley north of Seattle, they are absolutely no concern.
Magnificent! Of course we want to see more ❤. We used to grow grapes commercially, you need to constantly spray against black spot and other issues; they’re definitely a commitment. Those senorita zinnias btw - gorgeous.
I was so very excited to see a new cottage garden video released from you! It is especially welcome this time of year. Thank you so much for sharing your gardens, thoughts, insights and art with us. I would love to see a secret garden video! 😍🙏💐✨🌱 Wishing you an amazing growing season.
Oh my goodness! Im in 6b and YES!! Ugly duckling phase is a MAJOR THING for me too! Iris, poppies, and peonies end in mid May and nothing else perennial comes in till late June! And my husband asks every other day if Im sure the larkspur isn't weeds. 😂😂
Absolutely interested to see more. You seriously have THE best gardening videos: relaxing, entertaining, and informative. You even addressed my intense fear of snakes in the cottage garden that I dream to have one day! You have such a talent for this and I'm thankful that you share it with us all!
Always incredibly impressed by your videos - and gardens!! Very inspirational
Thank you very much!
I'm so thankful for this video as with all your videos. You have truly fanned my flame for cottage gardening. I hope to see the side and back gardens in videos to come!
Just watched the video of your mothers wonderful cottage garden in the frontyard through the summermonths .
And I must say it was such a joy.
For me esp about the wonderful colours and the texture cobinations and the high and low.
You really have made this into the ideal cottagegarden ,my dream.
It was so fantastic to walk around in it with you ,and to hear you telling about what your thoughts were when you made it.
This is the ideal cottage garden video for me.
Love the tempo ,too not too fast and mot too slow.
Thank you so very much.
Haha think Im gonnna watch it all over again right now ❤️
Loved watching the transformation of the garden through the seasons!
The amount of work you put into this was immense, but SO WORTH IT! Thank you for sharing.
I always look forward to your videos. They inspire me to continue adding to my present garden even when the plants and wildlife can be a struggle at times. Please keep creating your beautiful and educational videos. 😊
Your videos are so beautiful and inspiring! Thank you so much!❤
I would LOVE to see the side yard and back yard! I can’t remember which house you recreated the walking path down the side of the house, but I believe this is the house where you made those lovely, decorative enclosures to protect cucumbers and other plants from the groundhogs, would enjoy seeing how those are doing!
So inspiring, we have curious squirrels, tree and ground so our plants get pulled and bulbs gets eaten. Would love to see part 2 and 3
I just discovered your channel. This is by far the best gardening channel I have ever experienced. The quality and production value, the reality of successes and failures, that I see end of season results, the beautiful and wild garden, not perfect and unrealistic. Thank you. I will continue to watch and try to support by purchasing your art as well. My favorite so far was the cottage garden design series that incorporated fine art concepts. Your channel is exceptional.
Thank you so much for making this full-year content! This is my third year in a new house and I’m finally tackling the yard properly. It’s so helpful to see the bones in the winter and then watch it fill out.
This gives me much more realistic expectations and helps me think about the design through the year. So much garden design content shows only peak season!
I’m subscribed and here for any more content you produce, I love this format.
Fortunately England has almost no snakes. I've only ever seen one and it was a grass snake. Your garden is truly beautiful. Than, you for your lovely film.
Your graphic animations and music are excellent. I appreciate you showing the difficulties of fighting different plant diseases. You did a great job of showing how gardens change by themselves year over year. I always look forward to your videos.
I was so happy to see your new cottage garden video this morning. Your videos are always very informative and beautiful. They have given me much inspiration for my own cottage garden. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I imagine you would like to see the back tour as well, correct?
Yes, that would be wonderful!
Your channel is second only to Monty Don’s gardeners world! So soothing, beautiful garden scenes, practical tips and guidance. Thank you! (We do want to see the back yard!)
A pure joy... You are one of my favourite creator... There is so much poetry in your manner of seeing nature it is a true haven in this world... Thank you for the beauty and inspiration, Siloe... I wish you a magical gardening season... 🌷
You may need to prune the grape leaves to allow more air circulation. Also your Iris may need dividing come August. They really benefit from keeping up with dividing every 3 years or so.
I love all your videos and have seen them all! Please show your viewers more of your gardens, at your mom’s house and at your own home. I’ve appreciated seeing more glimpses of your beautifully appointed home !
That was beautiful! Cottage gardens are my favorite style. Suffice to say, I vote for more videos and a glimpse of your secret gardens!
Nice. If we're voting on side and backyard continuing versions, here's my vote: ✔️ YES
A very loud and resounding YES to seeing the secret garden!!!!
The caliber of these videos is unrivaled on TH-cam. Your garden too!!
Each time I watch the 3D model change I’m in awe
Yes to every call to see more, this was such a great way of showing the garden! Beautifully done!
I love your videos. Something about them just makes the world seem magical and beautiful again. They're a TH-cam treasure, for sure.
Wow! This is the first time I have come across your channel & I must say- your editing skills are AMAZING! Great video!
Such a happy place to be, I adore your Home and Garden. 🏡 I'm happy I found your channel, as I'm working hard to have a garden of my own, Thank you for these informative videos. Sending love to you and your garden from the other side of the world Siloe. 💛❤️💛
Glad to hear the video provoked happy inspiration. Thanks for letting me know.
My TH-cam feed is not the same without more of these videos!
Beautiful! I love the rabbits and the other animals enjoying the garden. It reminds me of the concept of 'wildlife garden'. I think that gardens can play a very important role in protecting biodiversity. Especially in cities they really are key ecosystems !
Its really is nice to see how the space changes over time. I like the color contrast of your new house color against the garden! truly inspiring 😊
I am so looking forward to spring and summer blooms! I’m enjoying seeing all the plants wake up! Would love to see more of your gardens.
Coming soon! Thank you for letting me know.
A beautiful garden! You've done a great job. I really love that you show it through all the seasons and phases. It shows people what a garden is really like. This is real life, and there are phases to any garden. :) Thanks for sharing.
It’s nice to hear you appreciate this approach since gardening for most people will not always be perfect with replacement nursery plants. Those are beautiful but less realistic for most of us.
More of everything please, your content is always such a rich tapestry in itself I enjoy watching them more than once!
I respect how much you put into creating these videos - but seriously, no need to ask if we'd like more ... I know that I'd love to see more of what you're doing.
I'm mesmerized by your presentation: Fabulous and charming video images, narration, music and animation. It's perfection. I love it!
Please show us the rest of the garden. I have a tropical garden with mostly foliage but I love watching your gardens
Your video in the mornings and a cup of coffee…perfection. TY
Love your cottage garden, flowers are my favorite, especially real lush and thick , looks great... I'm sure your neighbors enjoy the view.
Worth the wait for this beautifully produced walk through the seasons. Made me forget the snowy landscape outside my window.
Good to see this update. I remember a time where you were not sure about your direction. Such beautiful progress ❤
SO pretty. Loss for words. More please. 😳🌹
I am convinced that there is a farmer-gene just as there is a warrior-gene. If so, you’ve inherited it for sure.
Your imagination with the possible variations of the design just blows me away! 😍
You just have made my day even better!
That makes my day as well!
Yes show us all the wonderful gardens you have done…..I am a big fan of your channel !
Those stargazer lilies are stunning!!!. One of my favourite. They have instantly drawn my eyes.
More, please! Have you considered arctic fire dogwood for winter interest? It has multiple red canes that are lovely by themselves in the garden or the canes can be cut for wreaths, floral designs etc. it has a cousin arctic sun. Hellebores/Lenten roses grow best in shade, so perhaps as a ground cover under the crape myrtle along with heuchera/coral bells. The foliage color choices are fabulous. About the pests. Sometimes plants need more airflow, but I’m slightly claustrophobic so i like some space
Yes we want to see more! Love your videos. Bring such peace and inspiration in these really tuff times.
I’m happy with anything you show! Such natural talent!! The bunnies are a pain but truly the cutest!! I wonder if planting stuff they live to draw them away woukd work!!
i can’t believe i got to watch this for free ❤ so inspiring
Yes more please ❤️😊 I enjoy the process and experimentation- successes as well as failures- as well as the design musings - very informative and helpful 👍🏼
Your gardens help us dream of what can be done, isn't that what gardening should be about. It's interesting how both your gardens reflect both your houses. It would be interesting t see how you came to this.
This was a beautiful ode to the romance of the “wild” garden. You made it seem effortless when in fact there must have been a fair amount of stage dressing to produce this performance. And the video is wonderful! Thank you.
💐 Love, love, love! I was so excited to see a new video from you, and it was worth the wait. I'm your neighbor in Virginia (where the Rappahannock meets the Bay), and look to your videos for advice on what works. This year I've even devised my own plate sprouting method after yours. Many thanks for all your excellent hard work!
Love your videos and this month by month journey through your Mama's garden! Yes show more! Have a wonderful Sunday!
So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay
Old poem, full of atmosphere
I love your garden because it's beautiful and shows that one doesn't have a lot of money to have a lovely garden.
I watched this video over and over again. Please keep posting more videos. You are such an inspiration and a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for sharing not only your garden successes, but also the various trouble spots. So helpful to watch how you and your garden adapt to specific circumstances.
I would love to see more about the side areas. This was lovely, thank you!
Great to see you back. The garden tour was wonderful!
i would love to see the other sides of the house. between your poetic descriptions, gardening skill, and eye for design I believe you are a true artistic genius. You also have the rare talent that your videos are as helpful as they are entertaining
