Photography. Great way to remember where everything is planted, and journaling what was planted where and what varieties were planted. I keep a three ring binder with clear sleeves in it that can hold photos, bed diagrams, and plant tags for reference. Works great!
This Q & A was excellent! Great questions and answers. Love the corresponding photos for your responses. Love your sense of humour and exuberance during this video. I just found your TH-cam videos in February and have thoroughly enjoyed each one. Love your landscape plans and all the plants you use. I live in Northwestern Ontario Canada in a Zone 3 hardiness location so would love your incorporation of Zone 2 and 3 hardy plants into some of your future landscaping plans. Looking forward to your further videos. ❤
I really do love and appreciate your videos. I live vicariously by watching your videos. They bring back great memories when I had many gardens at a former home. So, thank you. ❤❤❤
Enjoyed the info and picks. Yes to a regular schedule as I think it helps everyone including yourself. Many suggestions on locating bulbs-thanks everyone! About deer and rabbits. My area has a lot of cedar, oaks, stuff wildlife doesn’t like until they see the gardens. I have to fence everything as they will eat anything except-so far-foxgloves. We are the salad bar. We have been in severe drought and they definitely eat anything green just like they eat everything in harsh winters. It’s a bummer we have to fence, but I can’t afford to feed the wildlife or time to wait for things to regrow. 😅we also have 4 roosters that like to rearrange woodchips as they think they are helping and for trade they help themselves to the Sweet Williams.-They are rascals😅.
I'm in zone 6b and actually have a rabbit who lives in my backyard and has been there for almost a year....i also have a heavy deer presence and lots of liatris.....none have ever been touched in case this helps anyone
Hello my fellow gardeners in Zone 5 - can anyone give me some suggestions - I have several 24 inch pots on the eastside on my yard I need ideas for ONE plant I can use to fill them - I am on a small budget - cannot afford 5 or more plants for each pot- thanking you all in advance 😊
Depending how much sun/shade each pot gets, impatien/sunpatien, petunia, begonia, coleus, calibrachoa, creeping or woolly thyme, zahara/profusion zinnia to name a few.
I bought 3 purple fountain grasses today for $3.50 each. They are small but I’m going to pot them up in a slightly bigger pot until I can put one each in my 3 garage pots.
Yes you can. Actually, if you seed them in place when it is warm, you need to soak or nick the seed coat. When winter sowing them, that is not necessary, though you do not want to sow them thickly, and make sure you transplant them in to their final homes asap. 🥂
I fortunately bought a Japanese maple tree on sale. Where should I plant it, sun ot shade? The information tag was gone. Could I plant it in a bed with 2 Lemon Thread False Cypress, 2 mungo pine, 1 abroviatae and 1 wintercreeper euonymus? Anything else? I have one big rock. I just don't know the best placement for these plants. I could plant them in front of a shed where they wouldn't get any western sun, but get morning and southern exposure. I'm in 8a SC. THANKS for your help.
How to remember where your bulbs are: Take a picture of the area while/after you’re planting.

Pefect. Exceĺlent suggestion!!
I paint golf tees red and place one near each bulb group.

Great ideas Michelle. I am going to rewatch to make sure I didn’t miss anything. Be blessed! ❤
Have fun! And thanks...good to see ya 😀
My 4 year old son leaned over and saw your video on my phone and said, "I like her, she's a cool lady!" 😂 he's, right! Love your videos.
How sweet.
I really do love and appreciate your videos. I live vicariously by watching your videos. They bring back great memories when I had many gardens at a former home. So, thank you. ❤❤❤
My absolute pleasure
Goodness! So much fun to watch. Looking forward to the installation videos!
Looking forward to the rabbit/deer resistant flowers video. Could you also address resistant annuals?🌸
Great idea!
Very informative! Thanks!
Thank you, Garden Gab is fantastic 😊
I really love you inspiration,as well as you passion!
For the Tulips,don’t cut them all the way to the ground. Leave a little bit of the stem. “Happy Gardening .”

For plants in the garden, I take a picture and put them in my journal. I don't have a memory and this helps!
Perfect!!
I caught the 20% too.🤣. You are a hoot and a half with all sorts of info!
❤😊
Awesome video as usual, Michelle. Enjoyed from start to finish.
Thanks again!
Oh. Can you send me a differnt picture...I need it to be further away for perception ...on my part.
Yes, sure will.@@gardeningTLC
Golf tees to mark your bulbs
DIY deck fence
I love the shade combo, can you recommend a shade combo for total shade?
No. Not really...some hostas maybe
My winter interest will be 6-14” of snow tonight covering over my emerging daffodils and alliums. 👎👎👎
Aww man....that is a bummer
What landscape software do you use to create your beds
That was the very 1st question I answered PRO Landscapes

Proven winners any coleus. 1 plant per pot..will be glorious
With a very tight budget, maybe seeds? Zinnias with yellow marigolds & sweet alyssum is lovely.
Is there a site that identifies which hosta leaves are the thickest and therefore less likely to be attractive to slugs?
I have no idea....google it?
Can you winter seed morning glories
I don't know. I never have.
Yes you can. Actually, if you seed them in place when it is warm, you need to soak or nick the seed coat. When winter sowing them, that is not necessary, though you do not want to sow them thickly, and make sure you transplant them in to their final homes asap. 🥂
I would like to plant a shade garden under my neighbour's lilac hedge, the roots are in my property, can I dig out those roots and plant my hostas ?
Well I certaintly am not going to tell you yes, go do that. That is between you and your neighbor.
@@gardeningTLC I will build up the soil over those roots then plant my hostas.

I would make sure it gets good drainage and is protected from hot afternoon sun.
@@gardeningTLC thanks for your advice.
Nothing beautiful in garden. I need to add some winter interest. 😮
