@@Cynthia-zz1vi thanks Cynthia moisture makes such difference but shoot looks like beautiful weather ahead yet dry. Are you planting anything now? I was given several starts of some new hosta varieties and I won’t say no😉😏so today as I’m cutting off old hosta I’m planting more and dug several of mine to give to another friend . So fun passing forward. Trying to clean up garden little by little because weather will continue to change and it happens do very quickly. Have a great weekend.

I agree these cooler temps feel nice. That video was made about 10 days ago before the cool down . To see no rain for 10 more days is still disheartening . Yet south of us people suffer from rain damage. Those Japanese anemones are so lovely to see and cut.

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 yes I feel for those affected by the terrible storms 😢 we don’t have rain in the forecast either and it’s almost been a couple of weeks without rain - I’m back to watering my trees and shrubs that I had planted in the spring 🤷‍♀️. I have a 2 new beautiful redbuds - flamethrower in the front and forest pansy in the back, 2 new rosy teacups dogwoods, some abelias and weigelas, tiny 1 g moonrise Japanese maple and a cute Mikawa Yatsubusa - it’s hard to stop planting (collecting) 🤪

Hello Theresa and Reg Your newly planted bed looks beautiful. I am eager to see it come spring. Best to let the arborist decide on your large yews. I reckon the deep roots will be hardest to remove. Once you see the space who knows what beauties you'll put in their place. The anemone is a slow grower for me. People say that it's invasive,but I've never found it so. Thank you for letting us in on your plans. I've learned so much and snagged a few of your ideas❤❤

@@urchinsushi2041 wow that sounds beautiful!! I need more space …no not really it’s manageable now I need to kinda downsize but that won’t happen for a while😉☺️

@@77sun222 yes the tree will be assessed next week I hope. I’ve never found this anemone aggressive I wish it would show a couple new babies to transplant. Been in the garden all day cutting back pulling out dividing and planting today as busy as spring can be😏. But the next season can come quickly if I don’t get moving ☺️

@@urchinsushi2041 URCHIN yes it is sweet actually right now he’s doing a little repair and he said it will be even nicer. Reg loves any project im very blessed he supports my gardening passion .

@@rachelshepherd8099 Rachel love building stacked stone walls the walls that terrace the property are cemented in place . The smaller walls around the property are dry stacked. It’s fun scavenging for the rock and building. Do you have stone retaining walls?

Candace fun to do too . We had strong winds this summer I may do a double braid next year to add strength. Thanks for watching and getting in touch . Where is your garden?

@@Cynthia-zz1vi good morning Cynthia my fear it would stress this old tree even more. I know Ill loose this tree prolly in my life time but would removing the root put much stress on this tree . Help please if you’ve more info. Ive a tree guy coming next week he’s done all the branch removal on this old tree I will consult with him too. I love my willow its the big reason we chose this property 32 years ago I imagined this garden with it as its focal point. Time flys. Where do you garden and how much ground do you get to dress up with your vision?

Hi Great idea for the wall. I love it. About the root I'm not sure. I would be inclined to cut it for safety's sake. Surely that one root would not kill the willow? It might send out smaller roots which could improve the strength of the tree in the long run💞🌟👏

@@77sun222 Sharon that root probably would not harm the tree. Never thought bought new roots forming. I’ve our tree guy coming next week I’ll get his opinion he’s the company that has removed large branches from this tree a couple times. I needed opinions on this I don’t have but a few trees and this one is getting older like lol.

@@jax2482 my camera man ( husband 😉) keeps getting a bit better . Try it and look up other videos fun and looks pretty.

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994i will definitely check them out. Ty to your hubby for helping lol 😬

@@jax2482 he supports my passion as I his he’s an artist and at least twice a year has an open house here since our home is his studio ☺️in the summer it’s a garden open house too great party atmosphere for a couple days . ( lots of work but fun! )

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 it sounds like a magical event! How lucky for the recipients who attend! It's nice that your both are supportive of one another in your talented endeavours!

@@uptenmilecreek ten Mike creek that’s in WV right😏. We’ve been fortunate so far the storm Helene has not caused flooding yet. So many in it’s paths devastated by its strength. Are you in safe area? This week cloudy wet has been wonderful for transplants and seeing everything hydrated. I spent several hours just piddling yesterday in the gardens (hapoy place right) even mowed and trimmed first time in 4 weeks. Thanks for bday greetings it’s been a good heady month . When is your bday?

@@tinag9538 yes that was a small baby taken with permission from The Frick gardens and museum in Pittsburgh . I’ve had it three years . It was in a shade area when we dug three babies two other friends with me . I’m going to transplant a baby to a sunnier area and see which does better. But it’s so beautiful now when others perennials have faded. Love its height and I just cut it off in winter add a bit off compost and forget it! Great in a vase too very airy .

@@77sun222 Sharon rain all week here too I see growth , blooms grass is greening and Willow actually looks hydrated the old girl was looking weary at 60😏. It’s always a bright spot hearing from you😎

@@rachelshepherd8099 yes I’m visual so I assume everyone else is too 😂

@@Stephaniescp thanks for the help with autumnal tummy . A great descriptive word when pronounced correctly! Yes it’s truly not packed that full this will get it through till I add maybe pumpkins for Thanksgiving ☺️have you started adding fall color to pots ?

@@urchinsushi2041 ikea we are heading to next week! My neighbor sounds as good as you finding great faux flowers to mix in his front stoop boxed. We always did that at our church mix faux with real money saver for sure and less outside watering.

@@15DurangoRT arborvitae is an evergreen tree or shrub from Cypress family. Zone 3-7 full sun part shade , growth rate is medium likes moist alkaline soil but very adaptable. Not deer resistant yet I’ve not had severe damage. BAGWORM may be its worse pest but if you ck regularly easy to manage .

@@bronwynodonnell8548 cheers for sure now I keep assessing where and what will create change 🧐😉

@@rachelshepherd8099 I’ve now an anxiety about these little stinging creatures . So aggressive the big bumbles on my sedums just lay and snooze and eat with no attention to humans. Always someone wanting to start something they are bullies😳☹️😡

@@LindasFlowersandVegetablesGard I admit it’s what this space needed a fresh reboot onward upward 💃🏻

@@annadam a nursery called Freeds about 40 minutes away it’s lovely I’ve checked in to work perhaps in Janurary , February maybe March but then it’s work 😏I’m not bored enough yet .

​@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 Teresa! I found it! Fortunately I live about 15 minutes from the N.C. State Farmers Market and I went there today. Found a grower who had some gorgeous specimens! Brought two home, planted one today. Not sure where I'll put the second, maybe a container. I have limited sun spaces. Anyway, thanks so much for the suggestion!

@@annadam hurray Anna it’s so fun when we find what we want! Keep me posted !

@@77sun222 Sharon I’m kinda a wait and look and feel and over think gardener🧐🫣🤣. So absolutly it will come to me☺️

@@Stephaniescp thanks it was so fun once I got started!

It was the constant watering for me as well that inspired me to find its new home . I’ve another arb in a pot I’m hoping a friend will take for me to cut back on watering in the new heat we have in our state . The drought has taught me quite a bit about the garden and myself. Your tree and mine are thanking us for the ground to stretch its roots!!

@@77sun222 Reg loves catching them doing anything we are cat people I love dogs but where we live cats are easier my only dog lived 22 years no lie I actually had to have him put down he just was determined to walk sideways blind incontinent it was a hard thing to do but goodness he had a great life with me and i with him.

@@77sun222 Sharon these are tough plants if they live under my care 😂

@@missprettyplants7217 It’s interesting how one day we just look at a garden and say it needs a facelift. I am enjoying the change too. Plus I really enjoy gardening and on this small plot after 32 years even I could use a revamp lol 😂

@@deeee777 Dee mine looks great it is planted under a medium size caryopteris. This summer here in WV is a drought and I didn’t really start watering it until late July now I’m watering it about every 4 days when I water all my gardens. So many states and communities are drought! I’ve not kept up with Chicago area have you had moisture this summer? But another compact arb to try that I’ve just planted is Mr. Bowling Ball it gets max 30 inches by 30 I think zone3-8 full to part sun . Sage green no pruning like Anna’s magic yet her color is lovely but this one is too. I’ve a video coming up by Friday this week if o get it edited. Look it up I paid 39$ for maybe 5 gallon container. Let me know what you replace with .

@@rachelshepherd8099 Rachel , learn g for sure! It’s exciting for me and sounds for you how trying new plants and gardening a bit differently and getting good results , keeps it interesting and exciting!! Angelonia is a wow performer on my list for next year. Its always great hearing from you and your garden this is why I’ve a channel . Always need passionate gardener to talk with!!

@@urchinsushi2041 yes it’s so handy for small limbs. This success has made me a professional arborist 😂😂😂💃🏻. Thanks for encouragement!!

@@77sun222 I’m having a cold coffee now reading your support! It’s always encouraging trying something new and it works right!! How’s your temps we’ve still haveing 89 days but 50 nights and very low humidity !

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 the weather is cool autumnal. No leaf drop yet from the harry Lauder tree or surrounding trees. The weatherwoman on TV said we're having three seasons in one day. Still...soon time for bulb planting💞

@@BACKYARDBLOOMSWITHKIM Kim as I love your gardens. Our heat and drought have been a learning experience for me first time in 50 years of gardening g I’ve had to water weekly or even twice weekly. A bit scary. But the reason I started my channel was to be connected to others as passionate or even more passionate than me! Watching you garden it’s reassuring we gardening people just have tons of energy and love caregiving of the plot of ground we’ve been given. I’ve had fish and pond plants and then the river would flood and yuk I ended up with carp and snapping turtles lol. I’m considering at least pond plants next season. I’m sure you’ve some great plans in your head too. Thsnks for watching and commenting have a great week!!

@@TruthSeekerHuman-je5pd it’s been such a learning g process for me and the garden mental notes and written notes to self. Where do you garden? Cutting back early just had to be done!

@@annadam Anna mine has yet to have many blooms or berries. Outside of me neglecting to water it in this drought I loved its upright narrow form and its leaf color. Mine is 3 perhaps you find a spot in your garden give it a year as I will see if mine recovers 🤞🤞🤞and if yours shows any giddy up in its performance I thought perhaps mine wasn’t getting enough sun last year but wow this year told me it’s in a hot spot. Or give it away put it on compost it’s your plant and your garden we can just do that with any plant that is not bringing joy!! Keep me posted on your decision. I’ve thrown away many plants and prolly always will I’m running out of gardening friends who have space for my rejects🤪🫣😂. I do like have gardening friends like you to share thoughts about specific plants funny how other friends who don’t garden just look smile and wonder what the heck we talk about. Now I’m excited to hear what you find when you remove it from the pot !!!

@@77sun222 Sharon my fig has brought such delicious treats about 6 a week for the last 4-5 weeks hope all of them turn before frost hits. Delicious little treats.

@@countryroadslife indeed she’s a hostess and her home so relaxed and inviting ! I love her sense of design with veggies and flowers!!

@@LindasFlowersandVegetablesGard Linda what a summer for learning for me …but that’s the most fun of gardens ever changing and reacting to Mother Nature! Where do you garden ?

@@urchinsushi2041 morning glories will start from seed after frost. Yes just so the ground has warmed where you plant!

@@backtonature433 such a kind response . I feel so very fortunate to be a steward of this plot of paradise☺️. How many acres do you garden and where do you garden?

@@rachelshepherd8099 Rachel I’d love having to spell caryopteris in a spelling bee💃🏻

@@rachelshepherd8099 Rachel great news it’s beautiful seeing the leaves of trees looking hydrated and soil moist in our gardens. These cooler temps have energized me I spent several hours weeding cutting back dividing snd primping my garden yesterday and barely had to wipe my brow 🙏🏻💃🏻. I can only imagine my plants relief☺️. Get a walk into in these temps . Have a great day ! They are all wonderful !!

@@77sun222 Sharon it’s funny when one can see that a plant compliments the other isn’t it. I’ve always had to live with plants before I place them . Are you that way?

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 hi,yes. I have mostly containers for the smaller type of shrubs and plants. They do just as well as if they were in the ground...and not much water either. So,I do ring the changes easily. Of course my massive harry Lauder tree is in the ground🤣💞

Yes it’s called a floral shovel love it’s wooden handle and small attached shovel head easy to keep sharp too. Just google floral shovel. ☺️

Good morning you are up early , prolly walking through your garden, or at least coffee. I’m glad you share the same energy this is why I began this channel I find gardeners that are like minded!! Quirky but we get each other. Where do you garden ? I learn so much from my gardens don’t you?

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 I'm in Baltimore zone 7b/8a

Vickie I’m in solidarity with your stress from our heat stress. I’ve never gone through a hot summer or drought. My plants have had to endure my ignorance they’ve been tough but have struggled until Ivrealized they need water every week😳even my drought tolerant ones like a bit of moisture . 🫣😂. How many years Vickie have you gardened. Btw any relation to Greg Brannon here in town? Retired optometrist and his wife Eileen?

@@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 No relation. Just getting back into gardening. I have plants in containers that I have had to water 2x daily in this 100 degree heat. Today only in the 90s. Relief!

@@vickiebrannon5217 enjoy the relief your plants will thrive with your care!!

@@maryleepowers528 Mary Lee ostrich ferns do best in a shady area mine have survived dry shade and on the river bank moist. Extreme heat and sun as I found out this summer . I’m in West Virginia and we’ve never ever had 90 degrees May through August . Plus drought conditions . We always had rain at least once weekly. I finally after waiting for rain early summer began watering once weekly . They tolerated my neglect. Love these ferns in spring I don’t do anything I let the leaf mulch decay and feed them. They spread through top surface roots yet I’ve not found them invasive. Enjoy the plant they are so romantic! Thanks for watching. Where do you garden?

@@rachelshepherd8099 same here 90s are back and dry we did receive a couple inches a week ago or longer . I’m actually water twice weekly just started this last week . What a learning process for me never ever had to water more than maybe once or twice YEARLY 😳. There are people prolly having larger problems who have wells for water source and of course veggie and cattle farmers . Brother in law will sell his beef cattle not second cutting fir hay. Prayers for moisture. Enjoy this season and keep me posted on your gardens .
