I always enjoy your videos and click as soon as you load one !

Cathy it has been a strange fall. I also had a major wheeler honeysuckle it never did anything. Well it grew a little but not like it should have. It is gone now. I use cardboard too it is great. Just weigh it down so it doesn't blow away with the winter weather. I enjoy seeing what other people are doing I their gardens. Thanks for the video.

Looking forward to seeing you make this new space. Love that bee balm.

I love that you created a brush pile with that dead tree area. Great for the wildlife! Can't wait to see this area as you build it further.

Probably you have blooms because the weather is so crazy your plants think it is still summer. We haven't had any good rain in quite a while. I will say it has been warm.

I enjoyed it, Cathy. I still have blooms in Kentucky too. Been busy mulching the beds with shredded leaves.

Great Vedio Thank You

When should I start growing this plant ? Summer?

We planted a Blue Fortune Agastache plant this spring on our front raised bed. How best should we winterize and protect it in zone 5? Thanks for all your information.

Ok then where do you leave these jugs ? Outdoors ? Do you water them? Do you mulch around them? Il in south Missouri zone 7

I guess I planted mine in the wrong spot too 🤦🏽‍♀️ I had no idea it would get so huge, but it is absolutely gorgeous and I can’t wait to see mine look like yours!

Ceanothus represent! I have three different species native to the West Coast (bc I'm in Oregon) and I love all of them, they are great plants. I had heard the blossoms could be lathered up like soap! One of mine is Ceanothus velutinus, Snowbrush or also called mountain balm and its leaves are aromatic and make kind of a soothing tea if you have a cold.

I’m in zone 6A as well and want to overwinter my Vermillionaire. Have you tried this and how would you do it?

yes, your garden name is great!

everyone tends to want early blooms, understandably, but even experienced gardeners often overlook late season flowers... the asters & goldenrod asteraceae cousins get tarnished for being so hardy / resilient, get called a weed, but they are such beautiful flowers + important for pollinators. Best from Zone 6 Cathy, enjoy your "offseason"

We have many wild asters in our rural area, Cathy. I have the mild mannered Stokes Aster in my beds.

Looks so interesting!

GOD's Creation! Much love to you!

It’s a banner year for this in my yard in nj ! Bees LOVE it

I have what i think is bee balm its the first year and o blooms but the leaves don't have the smell. but it looks like the ones here.

Showy goldenrod is so amazing!

Thank you for the video. Some goldenrod came up in my garden last year. It must have been the canada goldenrod. I pulled it up. I was afraid it would spread all over.

I love goldenrod, our state flower.

Really loved your video. What would you say is your favorite goldenrod? Mine is stiff goldenrod because of the velvety leaves

5:14 I can tell just from the number of bees that this is showy golden rod. It must produce so much nectar!

So many bees!

Why wouldn’t someone want a mantis?? They’re so good for pest control! I was so excited to see some in mine this year and even more excited to discover an egg case

Love water features

Very nice!

I love water in the garden too. I put down a big pan since it has been so dry in hopes an animal can get a drink. I have a bird bath too. Thanks for the video.

When can I pull the pod off to obtain seeds? How do you store the seeds?

Isn't that hollyhock?

Love this plant/tree! Do you think it would be possible to split one of these when planting, to get two trees?

Cathy, I found you by searching button bush and have been binge watching this evening. I love your videos and your garden looks amazing. Do you do garden tours on here? I may not have found it yet if you do. I love how you showcase plants, and would also love to see how your garden is laid out. I’ll go see if you have a garden tour video.

Nice tips on scarification, I will have to try that. Something interesting i learned about stratification. I saved cherry seeds and kept them in the fridge over winter, planted then outside in the spring in a marked area. Nothing sprouted. However, after being buried for a full winter outside, many sprouted the following spring. Maybe some seeds need a freeze to fulfill the stratification requirement?

My goldenrods are juat seedlings. First time growing them.

Love to see it. My gray goldenrod attracts swarms of the tiniest micro-bees. They’re fascinating. I should get a few more varieties of goldenrod.

So many bees!

My GT has become quite huge over the past 4-5 years. 😳 I think I’ll have to divide it in two in spring 2025, same for those New-England aster patches! I swear I deadheaded everything in late fall to keep its seeds from forming and two of them appeared last spring! I wish I had more gardening real estate!

Cathy thanks for the video. I take pictures so i can see the difference from year to year. I love your water feature. Please do a video on that . I sure wish we could get some rain.

Cathy would you sell seeds from the flowers in your collection? I'm trying to get as many flowers as possible to keep the hummingbirds happy. The hot lips salvia and Jacob's minarda been looking for

I just found your utubes, Thank you!!!! 😄

😊 I forgot to ask, what do you use to spray for mildew, please??

Heath aster and frost aster are two different asters. Heath asters only get 2 feet tall. Frost aster is very valuable to biodiversity. No native flower is invasive, and certainly not a weed.

Thank you for this video- I'm in NW Ohio too and have Awful Powdery Mildew every year. Will any of the remedies here hurt the native bugs?

Very interesting video

Sounds like my jerusalem artichokes 😂

Oh dear, I know I have started these. My soil is dry in the summer so maybe it will be ok. I didn't know they would be so aggressive. Thanks for the video.

I have always felt that there is a place in gardening for nuclear weapons!
