Happy belated birthday love love love watching your videos and since I am in Albury NSW I look forward to all your content especially now that you are planting in the ground. Laura Eubanks is a fantastic source of all things succulent and a great designer and I have learnt a lot from her but our climates are quite different which is why for me your content is invaluable. I hope your rhino experience was amazing, we also throughly enjoy the animal encounters that are available at various zoos across VIC and NSW! Take care
I love the different colors that's what makes your garden so beautiful! Either way even if you put like colors together your garden will still look beautiful. Great job Shy God bless you & Tim!
I love Russian Sage. It won’t really become a bushy bush. It tends to get leggy and lean so you can really cut it back a lot. Obviously you’ll loose the flowers when you cut back, but don’t worry. I cut back each month of the summer and got flowers about 2 weeks after cutting. This plant smells SO good. I put it on walking paths and it releases fragrance when stepped on. You can also add the cuttings to arrangements. This plant loves heat, but HATES water. It gets super leggy if over watered. You can cut it to the ground at the beginning of winter. It will look dead for a month or two. I honestly think you’ve got it in a bad place. My sages are in the back or on the sides of my beds so that I don’t over water them. They should also be a bit higher than other plantings because they don’t like wet feet. They won’t do well with water flowing down towards them. Good Luck!
Happy Birthday Greetings from the United Kingdom! Autumn here so its great seeing your cactus and succs bursting into life over there. Your garden is beautiful and the large specimens from your balcony have settled in very well indeed. More tours needed! 😊
Happy Birthday Shy! Your garden is looking fantastic! You have to dig out Oxalis as the have a bulb with multi little bulbs! I always take soil around them as well to make sure I get the. And then into the bin! Congratulations on getting a dream job in a nursery! Great way to learn !
Yet another amazing video!!! Uprooting that euphorbia was the right thing to do, to say the least. If that grows and spreads it can produce numerous...hundreds of seeds and sooner or later you will have your garden bed filled with it. I have seen it as a ground cover in dry untreated and rocky places during summer time, sometimes looking like a "Fibonacci Sequence Wheel". It is interesting, but certainly not for my garden bed!
Happy birthday again lovely Shy ♥️ watching your video so I can hopefully feel motivated to go out into our garden and do some much needed pruning and weeding. After the rain, she is muggy outside, so I'm not looking forward to working in it 😅 enjoy the rest of your weekend lovely xx
Naww thank you for the birthday wishes here too! 😘 MATE, it is so humid here today, I hope there's a little bit of relief for you to do some chores. And yeeesss I'm so proud of the hardenbergia, particularly as some advised she'd need a bigger pot (and I'll give her that at some point), but she's looking good for now. Cannot wait until she flowers! ❤️❤️❤️
Happy Birthday Shy! The beds look beautiful! I love to see how Mother Nature surprises us by bringing back "dead plants"! You definitely are rockin' a cottage garden vibe. I should be able to grow lavender but it's never taken in my wee garden- French or English. ❤
Sweet Molly, thank you so much! And yes, the surprises truly are delightful. I’m starting to appreciate how gardeners in highly seasonal climates might feel about annuals. Aww, maybe one day you can give lavender another try, and who knows?
@the.morning.chorus Always! I hope you have fun feeding the Rhinos! My Dad was a wonderful indoor plant , flower and veg gardener and was of the school "give it a try...you never know!" and let Mother Nature surprise him. I would like to try lavender again but may have to replant each Spring as it doesn't over Winter well in our sometimes harsh Eastern zu.S. Winters. Dried lavender from your garden would make lovely sachets. Such a beautiful fragrance upon opening a drawer in the dead of Winter. Enjoy your Birthday week! ❤️
Belated happy birthday! And yes I enjoy your videos. Probably because I don´t like cacti for myself, but appreciate them from afar. Love my succulents though. Living in Germany, I can´t grow either outdoors like you do, which makes your channel more interesting and gives me many ideas on hand made movable planters for seasonal outdoor growing.
I tried to grow sweet peas for years. I found no matter what I did the heat of the early summer did them in (they were toast before the real heat settled in). I’m in US zone 8a. The best I ever had I sowed the seeds outside in the late fall and they grew better and flowered some but it wasn’t great. We used to have more mild winters here but not anymore. It can be 50F at noon and 10F at 6pm, 0F at 6am and be 70F by mid day. It’s crazy. Happy belated birthday wish! I hope you had a great birthday! Can’t wait to hear about your garden center job. I’d love to retire one day and take care of plants at the nursery.
Yup it’s my first time growing them and I’m hearing they’re not fond of the heat. With summer now in full swing, it’s no surprise they’re struggling! Not surprised to hear about your winters either, it feels like the seasons are becoming more extreme everywhere. And thank you so much for the birthday wishes! I truly had a wonderful day 💕
Hi Shy, wishing you a belated Happy Birthday. Just wanna let you know that your garden is full of beautiful and healthy plants and your video brings so much joy to me each week. Thanks.
Your plants are all amazing ma'am Shy specially the succulent I love them,,,also the aloe's & agave wow they have nice color,,, your cacti are all amazing everything that's in your garden is WOW 😍😍😍😍
Happy birthday, gal! And don't stress about your sweet peas. They abhor warm weather and will just die anyways. I'm z9b, and we grow sweet peas during our winter. They can survive to about -5c... But mine start to die out around 27c. I actually have to grow a variety that blooms earlier/less daylight hours or I only get a week or two of blooms before the heat fries them.
Aw thank you friend! 💕 Ah that makes sense, 27C sounds about when they started to struggle for me too. Sounds like they'd only be around for a small window of time for me too. Such a shame, I'd like to give them another go next year, but I guess it means I can keep experimenting with a rotation of plants.
Hope you had a great birthday at the zoo - coincidentally same birthday as my husband - but we fed ourselves at Yum Cha. I also enjoy garden tours on TH-cam but they can get a bit repetitive - and Sydney doesn't have the same differences between the seasons as the UK and US gardens who tend to do monthly tours - so it can be a bit of a balancing act. I know some of them do it monthly so they can look back on previous videos to see how much the garden has changed and what has gone well - or not. Keen to hear about the new job. Congratulations! Jill
Happy birthday to your husband, Jill! Yum Cha sounds perfect! 😍 Re: tours, I hear you, I'd only do them if I felt like enough had changed to warrant one.
happy birthday again sort of still new to how you all in aus are time travelers 😂 rofl also lavender can be used along side edibles or smoking dried XD it's a relaxant too
my crassula campfires only look good for like 1 month out of the year the rest of the time they're covered in mealie bugs and/or leggy af. idk how some ppl get them to look so beautiful lol

Happy Birthday!!! 🎉Your garden looks like it's celebrating your Birthday too!!! 🥳
Thank you so much Roda! 🥰
Your agave dragon toes is gorgeous, I’ve never seen that one before! Thank you for sharing all the names of your beautiful plants!
Ohh agave dragon toes was one of my first agaves. It's a show-stopper, isn't it!
Happy Birthday Greetings from the United Kingdom! Autumn here so its great seeing your cactus and succs bursting into life over there. Your garden is beautiful and the large specimens from your balcony have settled in very well indeed. More tours needed! 😊
Thank you for the birthday wishes and the kind words! ☺️ And yup, pretty happy with how the large specimens are coming along!
A belated Happy birthday Shy 🎉, hope you had a wonderful day feeding the rhino's! Loved the the garden tour, everythong lopks wonderful.❤
Thank you so much Wendy! Rhino feeding was INCREDIBLE! I'll see if I can squeeze footage in a video somewhere 🥰❤️
Happy Birthday Shy! Your garden is looking fantastic! You have to dig out Oxalis as the have a bulb with multi little bulbs! I always take soil around them as well to make sure I get the. And then into the bin! Congratulations on getting a dream job in a nursery! Great way to learn !
Thank you lovely Francke!! Yep, I'll have to lift the plants up to get to the oxalis. New job is a bit of baptism by fire but we'll see how we go! 💕💕
Yet another amazing video!!!
Uprooting that euphorbia was the right thing to do, to say the least. If that grows and spreads it can produce numerous...hundreds of seeds and sooner or later you will have your garden bed filled with it. I have seen it as a ground cover in dry untreated and rocky places during summer time, sometimes looking like a "Fibonacci Sequence Wheel". It is interesting, but certainly not for my garden bed!
HB🎉❤ I Love homemade Fruit Salad 😮the colours are beautiful I love the design in your beds it’s amazing 🦘❤️
Happy birthday Shy😊
