    Thank you Annette, really delighted to see your take on the Chelsea Flower Show. Weren't the Roses fantastic. Gardens seemed so much more relaxed with planting in that fashion too. Richly deserved ticket to Chelsea 👏🌺🌼🌸

      Wow, thanks Penelope. Yes, I loved every minute and I feel so lucky to have been able to visit on Press day; it was really special. Glad you enjoyed the video. 🌸🌸😊

    Hi Annette. Wow, you did a wonderful job with your video work. In just 20 minutes you captured so much and then did the editing. The Chelsea people should be paying you for making a great video to show off all that beauty and yet you could have just taken it all in for yourself and not bothered. Thank you. XX

    What an amazing job you did on this video! That was absolutely beautiful. Thank you for bringing us along. It's one of my dreams to actually attend one day and see it all in person. Loved the music and very tastefully done Annette. ❤

    • @cottoverdi

      Thank you so much Jane. That means a lot to me - quite a bit of effort goes into the editing! It really is a spectacular show and definitely worth a visit if you can make it. 😊

    Annette, that was so enjoyable. I'm going to watch it again! Favourites were the N.G.S. garden and the Bridgerton garden. Thank you for taking us along and well done on receiving your well deserved invitation.

    • @cottoverdi

    Annette, I loved your Chelsea Flower show. The music and your videos were so beautful!After watching you Chelsea Flower show, I found the BBC utube. Thank you so much. I would have never looked. You are my favorite Utube garden show to watch. Cosmos and the tiger cat are sweet.

    Love all the bearded irissis specialy the Rajah, the purple poppy's are stunning and the sweet columbine in all colors. And so many colors of Geum, I sew today that my cosmos atrosangunius was 2e place at the RHS. I love this plant so much, it smells like cocolade, and with the flowers I dye my own wool. Thanks for your video Annet, and kind regards from Joke (The Netherlands).

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад +1

      Thanks, yes, the colours were so vibrant in some of the gardens, in contrast to other gardens where the tones were so much more subdued. Both beautiful. And 'hi' to you in the Netherlands! 👋🏼🌸🌸

    What a treat. I am particularly impressed by the garden at 18:40. I love the stillness of oriental gardens but this had pops of colour. I am also becoming a lover of moss! Moss on stone and creative ways of filling space and also the use of white in a garden. Thanks Annette.

    • @cottoverdi

    Outstanding! When you gave the warning about the music, I was dreading it, but what a beautiful accompaniment and reminder of my childhood. Excellent footage too. Thank you!

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад +1

      Glad you enjoyed it! and, Phew, so happy to hear that the music was bearable - it's a tricky thing to select music because everyone has varied tastes...! 😊

      So sorry - I have more footage but I’m only allowed to upload 20mins max. I have other videos from previous years on my channel. Every year is different but all are stunning and beautiful.

    Thanks for taking me along Annette. This is the only opportunity for me to see these gardens. I loved all the gardens and would find it difficult to choose one. I do like gardens that include water. Bonny zone 5b Canada

      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад

      Hi Bonny, I'm so happy to be able to bring a flavour of RHS Chelsea to everyone who cannot make it to this show. It really is the best and most incredible display imaginable. Glad you enjoyed the video. 😊🌸🌸

    Thank you for a lovely view of Chelsea without the chatter. I think you must have put a lot of work into that video.

    23.58 The roses look impeccable.
    We will have 32C today and on Wednesday it will reach 34C. I walk to the sea though and swim. I think my pansies will die.

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад +1

      Thank you so much. Gosh, that sounds like very warm weather for June!

    • @youlamatou

      @cottoverdi 37C next week, oh my God!!!!
      You are very eloquent in your videos and I really admire you for that. Not many people have this talent.
      One little secret, I used to correspond with Prince Philip. In his first letter he wrote "Dear Mrs Mougiou" by hand.
      The rest of his letters were written by his equerries. I used to live in Corfu and the year 2007 he visited Mon Repos , the ex palace which was his birthplace. I was working there as an antiquity guard, it is a museum now. Unfortunately I missed him as my supervisor changed my shift and I went to work 3 hours after Prince Philip had been to the palace.

      Thank you! What a lovely compliment. Sounds like you have lead a very interesting life! 😁

  • @jomeyer13
    @jomeyer13 2 месяца назад +1

    I subscribed because you named some bushes and plants used. i so wanted to know the names of the plants. even rhs one has to search for awhile to find plant lists.

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад

      Thanks Jo. I try to name most of my plants in my garden tours and when I plant out my beds so hopefully you will find that useful. 😊

    @cgj3888 2 месяца назад +1

    For me the Best in Show was Octavia Hills Garden and Gold for ST James;s others I found to be bland and uninspiring More a case of walking pass rather than walking thro. Where was the joy and excitement of old . Need Your Help😀

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад

      I loved the NGS garden - right up my street, although I don't grow any azaleas (yet!). I also loved Wateraid for the plantings along the water and the Octavia Hills garden for all those colours!

    What kind of grass is planted next to the geranium at 7:28?
    Greetings from Munich

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад

      Hi Anne, glad you enjoyed the video. That looks like Briza Maxima to me but the plant lists can be found online for most of the gardens. and 'hi' to you in Munch! We went to the Christmas Market there many years ago and had the BEST time! 😊

  • @margaridamaia9187
    @margaridamaia9187 2 месяца назад

    You have a space with so much potential Anette!! I like you a lot but I think you should give more prominence and space to wildlife! Not so many Dahlias or.....obelisks...... Do you know Knepp? And It would be divine a wildlife pond !!!!!!

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  2 месяца назад +1

      Thanks. That means a lot to me. Just to reassure you that our garden is dedicated to wildlife. We have creatures in abundance and plan to re-home some hedgehogs in the near future. We have also been planning a stream for many years but these things take time when it's just Richard and I doing all the work. 😊
