    I LOVE THE RED ADDED TO YOUR PINKS. The red penta matches Tommy’s flag! You will find such joy seeing Tommy excited about a color for him to enjoy as well. Just a thought.

    Sorry Tommy! I agree with Sydney about the red. Any chance adding drip irrigation to your landscape beds to increase hydration, without disturbing tree roots and, without the runoff issues, is an option?

  • @kb1236
    @kb1236 2 месяца назад +3

    Great addition, the red looks wonderful with the purple! It is a much needed pop of color in the sea of green and gray. The problem is there is not enough of it, a big mass of dark red would be beautiful.

  • @katedorman7042
    @katedorman7042 2 месяца назад +9

    I’m a HUGE fan of red in the landscape, mostly because my home is in deep shade.
    That being said, I agree with your hesitance in its use for your front landscape. It is jarring as a stand alone annual. Maybe would have a different impact if planted in multiple waves?
    In any case, your landscaping is gorgeous and you’ve both worked extremely hard on it.

    • @julieb1028
      @julieb1028 2 месяца назад +4

      I agree. You should add more red or no red at all. Like @katedorman7042 said: it is jarring as a stand alone annual.

  • @pattirichey1977
    @pattirichey1977 2 месяца назад +2

    I think the red pops with the color of your house. Adding a tall structural shrub in a large pot by your front door with some reds , purples would look good too. Your garden is looking great!😊

    I love red in my home... but not in my garden. I only use red and white cyclamen mixed with variegate ivy at Christmas time . Other than that, I am a blue, pink purple, white and chartreuse girl. It has such a softer , serene feeling to me. The front is looking beautiful. I am sure the succession planting will keep it colorful through summer into fall.

    I am a proponent of the color red 😅. I do think red is for bolder personalities, which i have in the garden. I love your yard, Sydney and Tommy. You've worked really hard to make it your own. I did the same thing many years ago. I enjoyed it so much.

  • @beckybainer9019
    @beckybainer9019 2 месяца назад +8

    Hi Sydney, I agree with you on the red… just doesn’t have your signature style in it! The amount of time, money and care to getting all of your foundation issues such as caring for your trees, doing your steel borders and boulders along with repainting your trim has sooooo paid off, it makes all your plants pop in such a beautiful and classy way. Loving your crisp style!

    I’m in the same boat as you with red. BUT! If red is corralled on the garden like in a planter I don’t mind it at all. I actually love red geraniums in pots. So if the red Pentas are bothering you, maybe consider putting the red in the back yard pots and moving the pink ones to the front!

    @donnasantamaria8317 2 месяца назад

    The front is looking sooooo good! Not the right color of red! Sticks out like a sore thumb. I am interested to see how your pink muly grass does. I gave mine 3 years in a similar lighting condition and they never developed the pretty pink seed heads. I transplanted them to a completely full sun location. Hopefully they will perform better. Love your sunnies!

  • @marybeth4002
    @marybeth4002 2 месяца назад +1

    I have always loved the artificial turf. From here, it looks like a real lawn and is always neat and trim. My favorite looks and colors in the landscape are the different shades of green foliage and white blossoms sprinkled with purples. It lends itself to a classic or English look and that accompanied with the stone and style of your home - looks just beautiful. You and Tommy have done so much in the little time you have been there - your hard work has paid off beautifully.

  • @jerryrobinpendleton5171

  • @deniseborchardt4491
    @deniseborchardt4491 2 месяца назад

    I have no gardening experience and appreciate your talent but think more pops of flowers/colors would look pretty. You said that somethings haven't bloomed yet. I think some big pots of something flanking each side of the front door would look great. I love your sunglasses! Looking forward to the backyard tour also.

  • @marky3131
    @marky3131 2 месяца назад

    I don’t mind red but tend towards, purples, pinks, blues kind of spectrum etc. that said we plant to attract wildlife so we do plant cardinal plants ( lobelia) which is bright red. But the constant visits from humming birds is well worth it and the flower itself is beautiful.

  • @keeptrying5962
    @keeptrying5962 2 месяца назад

    I feel the same way about red in our garden, lean very much toward a palette similar to what you're creating. Maybe it strikes me as calming, I really don't know. I also don't love dark yellow (palest yellows I love). I often like those in others' gardens, just don't favor them for mine. Everything's looking great, Sydney. 🙌🏼

  • @marymartens5137

    @marylynnhaynes7558 2 месяца назад

    Love the Helen Von Stein. I have many from one plant I got. I agree that the red is not my favorite especially with the blue. I think the purple pink is better. I have some pink Veronica that is beautiful and well behaved that blooms after the salvia. Good job!

  • @vbachman6742
    @vbachman6742 2 месяца назад

    I agree about red. I bought 2 dwarf knockout roses last year and I'll move them somewhere I can mostly ignore them or maybe give them to a friend in the Fall. I thpught they were deep pink but they are real red. I also dislike yellow and orange. I love white, blue, pink, lavender, and even fuschia if it is deep pink and not red. I love what you've done with your gardens.

    @carolfield8803 2 месяца назад +1

    It's stunning!! No red. I absolutely love the color red but not in my garden. Purples, blues, grays, chartreuse and pinks with a splash of white. How can you possibly get so much done when you work and go away a lot? Not to mention your nails always look fabulous!!

    @user-hx4hg8ee5r 2 месяца назад

    Hi Sydney, Your front looks beautiful. In that area where you mentioned the draining. Wouldn't it be possible to built a dry creek. I think that will really enhance the garden.
    HAPPY GARDENING!

  • @kris71983
    @kris71983 2 месяца назад

    I don't mind the red if Tommy was thinking of a theme for fourth of July. But I hate red and orange in the garden so I'd keep them for the holiday, then gift them or put them somewhere tommy can enjoy them, like a container. Everything else is so beautiful Sydney! Can we get an indoor tour sometime too?

  • @shirleygermain5707

  • @robinduke3184
    @robinduke3184 2 месяца назад

    I have the same color palette preferences as you, so red is a no go for me. I can see others landscape with red and think it’s gorgeous, but for my own yard I prefer not to add red or orange. 😊

  • @helenf9650
    @helenf9650 2 месяца назад

    Yeah, generally not a fan of red. I have seen some gardens where it looks good but packed with other colors like yellow too. I think it is a sensible decision to keep the artificial turf. Why fight with the shade and tree roots? Thanks for sharing

    I love the cooling aspect of the blue hues in your garden. I don’t have any red in my garden, I prefer the pinks to purple. Like other comments, can you add some drip lines where you need more water? I noticed the white coneflower, I have some white coneflowers that reverted to pink, has that happened to you? I do have pink echinacea in my garden, a cross pollination issue?

  • @lindadixon7956
    @lindadixon7956 2 месяца назад

    Linda Dorough Dixon/Mountain Park, Georgia/If you plant red you would need to spot red all through your garden. I think you should not start the red.. I don't have red in my garden... Also, your garden has taken on a boring appearance... So has mine because I love the green shades and the off-white shades. I was disappointed you chose to change Lindas gardens...It is becoming your garden, and it does look very nice and neat...Keep up the good work...

    I’m with you on the red. Don’t care for it at all….even the new flag…too red. I find red causes me to feel anxious. No relaxing where there’s red. I even avoid shopping in stores that have a lot of red. Orange is close behind. I’m very sensitive to color.
