Linda I think your garden is also a tribute to your mom. Flowers are gorgeous. It is difficult to go through the memories, and our loved ones not here. Thank god you can garden and your love blooms with your memories.
It looks as if you have a dragon topiary started. His head is directly over the left chair in the yellow bush at the very end of the video. The branches on top look like they could be trimmed to make his back. Maybe it's just my weird way of seeing things. Your garden is very beautiful and so peaceful! Thanks for sharing it.
Linda! Thanks you so much for this calm, serene Saturday morning tour! Especially after spending 9 hours in my own garden today. Such inspiration after a good hot shower and belly filling supper! I would also like to mention the fact that you are praising Nandinas. I have been thinking of tearing all of mine out, but you are right, they do offer a four season interest. And, oh yes! Geraniums, they were our starter plants back in the eighties! Still love to use them.
Linda. if you hadn’t told me you live on Ok., I would have said you lived further South. Always think of tornado alley when I think ofOk. You have definitely changed that theory. Love your yard and your videos. Tfs cheers
I love that you are using things like scented geraniums and nepeta in baskets. I love all the latest PW supertunias, superbells, etc. but I love when things that are a little outside the norm are used, too! So often, garden centers have non-name brand plants so it is nice to see them used in containers and landscapes, too!
Linda I suggest you plant a White Nancy in that open basket. You don’t have any perennials with the whitewashed foliage of the White Nancy and it will bloom over and over for you. It’s a terrific sun/shade plant...you’ll love it! Gorgeous lavender blooms!
Just lovely and so much fun to see all the details. The state of your aliums looks so good especially with the hydrangea and nandina blossoms. Lovely lovely, lovely. Thank you.
Hello Linda. I too love geraniums and they are a sentimental memory of my late mum. I had a tomato red geranium in a pot from a cutting in my mum’s garden and it was about 30 years old. This past summer I had to discard it as I live in Sydney, Australia and we experienced bushfires for about four months. The heat, toxins and ash caused havoc in our gardens. However, yesterday I visited my sister and I got a cutting of a blood red colour geranium and I’m looking forward to tending to that. I also love the salutation you used at the end of this video “from my garden to yours.” Perhaps that could be your regular send off at the end of each of your beautiful videos - provides continuity, makes it personal and allows us to incorporate some inspiration in our own slice of paradise. Thanks for the motivation.
Such a charming and secluded slice of heaven you have Ms. Linda! Everything looks so lush and flows well from one 'room' to the other. Thanks for sharing.
love your videos. i really appreciate the fact that you don't zip through sections to get to next area. the camera moving slowly lets me take it all in. thanks for all the info
At Minute 3:45, there is a pot I am IN LOVE with! Can you give us a source or a brand for it? It's nice and wide and shallow, which can be hard to find. Thank you for sharing this peaceful morning with us. Your gardens are so very lush, especially now, and I always look forward to these garden visits with you.
You garden is just perfect. Makes me happy just to watch the videos and always inspires me to go prune, dig, plant or buy something for my own! Happy Memorial Day!
Geraniums for the basket, yes please. My mom always had geraniums. Window boxes full of them. They are a comfort plant for me as well. It was so nice to hear someone else say that.
I've been in the process of making my most challenging backyard into a little Eden Garden, you and linen & velvet are my inspiration, what I'm missing is y'all's climate...I live outside San Antonio, but I'm learning what works and what doesn't. Springs can be quite beautiful here with certain bulbs and tubers, but after that it's just HOT, and you have to wait until November to get some color again, though the bougainvillea and crepe myrtles fo add that summer color ❤️...I did plant boxwood and lavender this spring, so I guess you can see how you inspired me. Thank you, always love watching you 😊
So lovely, Linda! Thank you so much for sharing all of the natural and purposeful surprises in your gardens, which seem ever present! Wishing you and your loved ones a very Happy Memorial Day weekend! 🙌💚🌿
Everything is just beautiful. Could you show a Virginia creeper leaf up close. I think I have some coming up in various places. Our Oak-leaf hydrangeas are blooming right now too. They are a tough beautiful plant🌸💖🌸
Second year gardener here and your garden is my ultimate goal! I'm starting from 1/2 acre mostly grass lawn in the northeast. One question I have is what can I do about the flying pests that deter me and my kids from wanting to sit and enjoy our backyard? We do have woods in our backyard but we also have a Dynatrap that covers 1 acre but it doesn't seem to be working as well. Any advice besides using chemicals to spray? And yes we do use bug spray on ourselves. Thanks!
It's looking so pretty, we're in the middle of a storm and rain very windy and the garden was looking great but just wish this wind would did down its causing havoc on my lovely Acers here in Scotland x
@@richardschoenmakers3704 horrible this wind especially with the trees having the leaves on them, not usual for this time of year again lot of clearing up to do hate winds like this stay safe 😊
Can you talk about different ground covers for your garden bed ? I see you have rocks bricks and slate or some stone. I love the look thats its been layered and put down at different times.
Your garden is BEAUTIFULL!!! I live in the Central part of Alabama and my oak leaf hydrangeas have been blooming the past two weeks and they are showing out this year. Which makes me very happy!😍💞 But we got a lot of rain this year so I was wondering if that may have been the reason for them looking soooo good. Just a thought. Thanks for the video!
I'm sure your hydrangeas are loving your extra rain - unusually here in England it's been bone dry for 6 weeks in my garden and my hydrangea leaves have sun scorch!
Wow, hydrangeas coming into bloom already - in my English garden they're a good couple of weeks behind yours. Your hotter temperatures are now bringing things on beautifully. We have gone down to 16C/60f - had 20C/68f last week. I presume you're in the 70s/80s now?
Will you let me know what hydrangeas bloom on old wood? I planted my hydrangea 2 years ago and it is not growing since I planted it and did not bloom last year. I love your channel! I find you and your garden to be so relaxing! Thank you!!
I’m with you on the hydrangeas that bloom on new wood! Also can you talk a bit about your irrigation means for your plant beds? Did you start the larkspur from seed?
Just starting to watch your videos, so maybe you have discussed this before. But, how do you keep your nandinas in check. Mine are getting out of control and I am about to go medieval on them. I'm thinking maybe you have an opinion on the best way to go about it.
I would pop in a pot of white geraniums and after they finished blooming I would pop in a pot of some very white leaved caladiums. The white of both of them would pop against the different shades of green.
Linda, this is Peggy Gilley. Have I told you that you are my favorite. I have a shade garden but I want to have a shrub or two in there. Is there such thing that I can grow! Please help!
Life is never boring if you have a garden!♥️♥️♥️👍🏻😘
Particularity during a virus lockdown!
Linda I think your garden is also a tribute to your mom. Flowers are gorgeous. It is difficult to go through the memories, and our loved ones not here. Thank god you can garden and your love blooms with your memories.
A happy 😊 looking garden 🪴 🌹 🌳 🍁
So beautiful. I hope the wind and torrential rain stays away from your lovely space.
I 100% hydrangea agree! You can never have enough varieties. They are the shrub of fond memories and loved ones of summers gone by.
So relaxing and fun to be in your garden with you!
Beautiful garden!

Is it behind the terra cotta pots on a black stand? I SEE IT TOO!
Linda, thank you so much. Have a wonderful day and a wonderful garden. We had a big ice storm here in Kentucky and expecting more tonight!
Stay safe dear!
@@LindaVater Thank you so much!

You have one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever seen, it’s so lush and interesting. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Watching your video and listening to your voice relaxes me. I love your pretty garden..so natural!

Happy Memorial Day Linda, thanks for sharing your lovey garden.
Thank you, Linda! I look forward to your new videos and tours of your garden as the season progresses. You have inspired me beyond measure.
Hello Linda, enjoy every single of your peaceful tours of your tranquil garden. Thank you, we all need little bit of tranquillity especially now!
Such a soothing video 💗
Lovely! ... and spiral topiaries will be a welcoming addition! 💚💜

Color! Wow, beautiful 🥳
You have so many beautiful things in your garden. It is such an interesting space! Thank you for sharing.
Such lovely peaceful video, Linda. Thank you. I live barberry too although I do not have any myself.
Beautiful 😍
So beautiful. It shows so much love. Thanks ❤️
Your garden is so lovely and serene. I truly enjoyed touring it with you.
Love your Garden, so many of the same flowers i love you have... will be looking to you for ideas !Thanks for sharing

I am obsessed with proven winners hydrangeas that bloom on new wood. Little quick fire excited me because of its autumn blaze foliage!
Beautiful, refreshing garden. Thanks for sharing !! Happy Memorial Day !

Thank you for sharing this peaceful morning with us. Your gardens are so very lush, especially now, and I always look forward to these garden visits with you.
If it is the one I’m thinking of...it is the top of a bird bath:)
Linda, I think it's the one with Fern under the hydrangea.
You garden is just perfect. Makes me happy just to watch the videos and always inspires me to go prune, dig, plant or buy something for my own! Happy Memorial Day!

Amazing , you are professional
Thank you from my heart .🧡🧡🧡
Your garden is so lovely. So many plants to look at...blessings.........MINDY
Beautiful, I didn’t know the annabelle bloomed this early!
Amazing!
Wonderful tour, love your garden. Just be cautious of fig tree, it s very invasive, i find it sticking out all over my yard even in concrete cracks.
Your garden is beautiful, I live in Kentucky
Gorgeous!
I click like on your videos before even watching. 😂💜
Agree, some
elevation looks awesome in garden design
Everything is just beautiful. Could you show a Virginia creeper leaf up close. I think I have some coming up in various places. Our Oak-leaf hydrangeas are blooming right now too. They are a tough beautiful plant🌸💖🌸
This is a geranium year for me, too! Who can explain it?! You have achieved a beautifully layered look in a small garden.
Linda, would you consider planting English Lavender in the empty container? I feel so relaxed when I watch your videos. Cheers from Canada!
Olá bom dia" seu jardim me encanta e me inspira com tnatas plantas lindas! Parabéns pelo capricho!

Mercedes Gilligan You can try some essential oils. Mix with water and spray on before heading out. It works fairly well and is non toxic.
It's looking so pretty, we're in the middle of a storm and rain very windy and the garden was looking great but just wish this wind would did down its causing havoc on my lovely Acers here in Scotland x
So is my garden it was looking good two days ago till this wind now its flat
@@richardschoenmakers3704 horrible this wind especially with the trees having the leaves on them, not usual for this time of year again lot of clearing up to do hate winds like this stay safe 😊
Yes, 45mph winds for two days in my garden in NW England - looks like a bombsite!
Can you talk about different ground covers for your garden bed ? I see you have rocks bricks and slate or some stone. I love the look thats its been layered and put down at different times.
Virginia Creeper is beautiful, but it sure is invasive!

Same here in Toronto, you are so far ahead of us, its a treat to see a reminder of what is coming :-)
I am in the South Georgia. Ours have been blooming for a couple months now.
Your yard is absolutely gorgeous! What do you have planted on your walkway?
Will you let me know what hydrangeas bloom on old wood? I planted my hydrangea 2 years ago and it is not growing since I planted it and did not bloom last year.
I love your channel! I find you and your garden to be so relaxing!
Thank you!!
I am allergic to Virginia creeper just like to poison Ivy. I always have to get rid of Virginia creeper every year.
I would put a pretty impatiens, maybe rockapulco rose double.
At 12.25 in this video there is a round cage around a ball. What is that called? I’ve been looking for one to help me learn how to do a topiary 😊
I’ll discuss!
I’m with you on the hydrangeas that bloom on new wood! Also can you talk a bit about your irrigation means for your plant beds? Did you start the larkspur from seed?
Linda, what is that sweet and delicate plant behind the veronica and in front of the White Wedding Hydrangeas?
Your Annabelle look so healthy. Does it flop or do you have a technique for keeping them from flopping?
Did you create all of your large globe topiary boxwoods or purchase them?
How are zinnias for you? That could be really cute and whimsical in the middle of all that gorgeous green. Just some thing for the summer?
Thank you for the video. How many Oak Leaf Hydrangeas did you plant? Wanting similar volume in my garden.
What about a lilic Bush in a container? Mine is supposed to be a dwarf
Just starting to watch your videos, so maybe you have discussed this before. But, how do you keep your nandinas in check. Mine are getting out of control and I am about to go medieval on them. I'm thinking maybe you have an opinion on the best way to go about it.
I would pop in a pot of white geraniums and after they finished blooming I would pop in a pot of some very white leaved caladiums. The white of both of them would pop against the different shades of green.
Can you tell me why you prefer the hydrangea on the wood over the types?
Do you waterproof your baskets? I just love the look!
Do you plant your nasturtiums from seed?
Linda, this is Peggy Gilley. Have I told you that you are my favorite. I have a shade garden but I want to have a shrub or two in there. Is there such thing that I can grow! Please help!
Of course! Mahonia, boxwood, yews, Hollies!
Linda, What white Allium is thatt in your garden? I am putting in my order now for the fall. Please let me know if you get a chance.
All of mine were Ambassador that have now dried. Try Mt. Everest. It’s white!
@@LindaVater Thanks.
Could you advise me- decent heavy winds have ruined Annabelle in my garden, would they benefit from a Chelsea chop?
Have they bloomed yet?
Is there something wrong with hydrangeas that bloom on old wood?
Have you ever listed the plants that you own for your viewers? That will be nice.
Swap the bench for the chair @ the 8:45 mark. Save the larkspurs!!
Linda, what type of grass do you have??
Linda i love your videos and information you provide, however it is really hard to hear you. Can you amplify your voice a bit? Thank you!!
Another fern in the basket
Beautiful garden, but it's difficult to hear you.
🌟🐜🐌🐞🐝🐞🌟
We cut off the nandina berries because they are poisonous to birds. Have you heard of this?
That looked like poison Ivy 😬😬
Don't know other name sorry
I can't hardly hear you and way to dull.
