End Of Summer Garden Tour!
Hello! Here is our End Of Summer Garden Tour! The garden is looking full and lush right now, and we are really enjoying the blooms (especially the dahlias!). We do have a busy and exciting Fall ahead both professionally and personally! However, because of this, we will need to allocate more time to work and focus on these events. We will be going down to one video a month starting in September-dropping at the end of each month. It will mostly be a vlog style video, highlighting several different projects we have completed over the month! Please know that we still LOVE making videos for you all and we are so thankful that you have followed us along this journey so far! We hope that you sti...

      @emkengardening9206 Год назад

    • @emkengardening9206
      @emkengardening9206 Год назад

      Oh man! I'm sorry! We honestly didn't think ours were alive either because typically new growth starts growing on the established stems from the past year and pruning is required to make sure blooms happen all over the bush (not just at the top).3 out of the 5 butterfly bushes however this year came up fresh from the ground this year! Not sure if this is actually typical or not, though!
