Beautiful tour...❤ love to see all the flowers you have going, I stink at knowing what flowers to grow when ha! Aways learning something new from you Angela! 😊
I hope one day to have such a beautiful and productive garden like you. I like how now you can just enjoy your garden and stop expanding indefinitely. I can tell you have peace-of-mind being able to produce plenty of food for your family. Very inspirational!
That basketball court brought back childhood memories at my grandparents house. They put in a full court, and my grandmother and I used to use it as a roller skating rink when my uncles weren't playing ball lol. Loved the tour.
I like how organized and intricate your garden is laid out. Looks like it took a a lot of thought. You got skills. I spend too much time in my little garden. I would spend all day in yours.
Curious…I’m very familiar with square foot gardening. Are you using a pre-made square foot drip system? Or did you make it? How’s it working? Love the use of wood chips, raised beds and containers. I’m converting my small front yard into this same plan in order to raise flowers for a cut-flower stand next year! (Keep Smilin’ Flower Stand) Carolyn/Vermont Cat Lady (originally from San Diego)
I use the watering grids from Garden in Minutes - they are awesome and work very well. shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1897453&u=2736599&m=118440&urllink=&afftrack= Use code Angela10 to save $10 off $100
Not sure how chicken wire keeps out MICE! Not even RATS are prevented! Might be better to try hardware cloth with a 1 foot liner outside bed. I think chicken coops do better with hardware cloth. Much smaller holes. Carolyn/Vermont Cat Lady (originally from San Diego)
Hi Angela, would love to see how you organize your pots when you are not using them. My backyard is not as big as yours (live in suburbia) but decent. I’m planning on getting a shed because my gardening supplies have taken over my backyard. You gave me a great idea to DIY a prep station because I make a mess on my pool deck. Kind of embarrassing now 😅 Do you have a shed?
Hi. I stack upside down next to the white potting table and underneath the big seed starting table. Many of them stack pretty well and they don't take up much room. I use the soil inside the pots to mulch trees in the yard. It works out pretty well.
I agree. I didn't even grow zucchini this year for that very reason. I grew ichiban eggplant instead. I'll purchase zucchini at the farmer's market or Sprouts and save myself the heartache.
I banned alyssum from my garden because the flea beatles deciminated it and I had grown it for years. I have wild arugla and didn't want to take chance so bye bye alyssum. I loved it though. I know I could use beneficial nematodes but I haven't brought alyssum back.
Beautiful garden! You've raised the bar for me in zone 10b. Only been in AZ for a year with 4 raised beds but will be adding more. This looks like your garden has been going for many years. You have given me many ideas. Thank you so much!
Great garden, thank you for sharing ! I tried to grow alyssum, but as soon as it strated flowering, it got attacked by some little flying insects and all the plants were gone in few minutes.
Foi agradável ver o seu jardim no outono. O seu clima é semelhante ao meu , aqui no Algarve, no sul de Portugal. Eu gosto das suas apresentações ponderadas e muito bem apresentadas. Continue com o bom trabalho.
Roselle makes excellent summer drink with pineapple rind, orange slices, cloves, cinnamon stick, ginger, vanilla and sugar to taste. Steep them all in a pot and serve over ice, Yum!!!
Your entire yard is so beautiful! Seems like such a wonderful place to rest and spend time with loved ones. Maybe you can put more seating in the garden area, that’s exactly where I’d be wanting to hang out 😁
Thank you, Laura, for sharing your gardens. My Seed Starts and plantings seem to be about 1 month or 2 behind yours. I guess I need to begin even earlier than I thought. Did you use very many transplants or is the majority started from seed? One more question regarding the Perpetual Planting and Harvesting Calendar: If the veggie is listed for a certain month, is that for Seed Starting or Planting? Should I count back a couple of months for Seed Starting? I appreciate your sharing your knowledge. Thank you again and Happy Thanksgiving!
I start the majority of mine from seed / indoors and out. In the original calendar what is listed is for planting outdoors. Yes, count back 1-2 months for starting indoors. I recently updated the calendar and I included the indoor seed starting information on each month as well.
Love your garden such an inspiration I am ordering my seeds for next year what pole bean variety, bush bean variety can you plant that does well the heat just cooks them every year
Just loving this tour. I'm zone 9b in Murrieta, CA and I'm experimenting with growing potatoes in the fall for the first time. When did you plant your sweet potatoes? We already harvested ours but I'm wondering if I started them too early.
It depends on the season. This year I wanted to grow a lot of different flowers that aren't available as transplants so yes I did. Other times, I purchase more transplants.
Hi Angela, I'm trying to figure out what side of your house your original area is. I have a east/west facing house and I'm wondering if I can grow anything on the north side between my house and the wall. It's almost as wide as yours, so there's room, I just don't know if it's useable.
@@GrowingInTheGarden Thank you... that surprises me. I was looking at the shadows and it looked like the side might be between your house and wall like mine. your side yard is on the west side, mine is on the north.. Well, darn. I'm hoping I can still create a nice space between my house and the wall. Maybe a summer veggie garden can go there. It gets about 5 hours of sun in the summer...
Beautiful! My AZ yard is about the size of your garden area, my kids would LOVE to have a backyard like yours.... I just see hours of maintenance/cleanup. LOL! Thank you for showing us your whole backyard. We are in the process of expanding our garden area and it gives me a lot of ideas for layout, etc. Can you have a video on cutting back peppers and any other plants to overwinter? I never know when and how much to cut back. Also, what do you do about ants in the garden beds? I have some that just are crawling with ants.
I'm in Texas 8b and we have lots of ants. I use "dried molasses "...it's not molasses as we know it and you buy it at the feed & ranch store. It doesn't kill all ants but works well on fire ants.
Your garden is so beautiful. Much love and care has been put into it. Wish our temp.s would allow us to grow like that. Too hot in summer and too cold in winter. Texas weather has changed so much since the 80's when I use to grow tons of plants.
I'm going to have to start from scratch again after dealing with some family things the last few months. Is there a video in the archive somewhere that might tell me what seeds to get going under lights soon for 2023 late winter/early spring? (also in Mesa! :)
You can check my monthly blog posts or my planting calendars - they show what to plant each month as well as which seeds to start indoors that month: growinginthegarden.bigcartel.com/products
I use the Growing in the Garden Raised Bed Mix from Arizona Worm Farm here in Phoenix. I don't use a lot of fertilizer, but I do add compost regularly and use in bed vermicomposting bins in most of my beds.
I've just found your channel and LOVE your garden. In Australia we call roselle's, rosella's and make jam too (which confuses some tourists as we also have a parrot called a rosella). haha. Subscribing so I can have a lovely poke around your garden.
Hi Angela, Your completed garden is gorgeous. I learned a lot from you thru the years. Our soil science is totally different from each other. My soil is mostly damp and the environment here in mid-Louisiana is very hot and humid. Just one of the many ideas that I learned from you, which worked great for my garden, is about adding worm compost containers in the garden. Wow!!! I could not dig deep due to my loss of strength with aging. So, I made holes all over the sides of lg yogurt containers, cut our the bottoms, fill them regularly w kitchen compost and cover the containers. W that I have an abundance of red wiggler worms that love my garden. I'm 80 yrs this month w cancer and radiation plus other aging health issues. Our Good God continues to give me courage and strength to continue gardening which keeps me moving and mentally sound. Thank you Angela, for all you do and teach us.
What a beautiful garden 💜💜 I am viewing from London England, if only gardens were as big as this. Newer buildings are mostly apartments with no gardens so I am grateful for the small garden I have 😊😊
Did you start your sweet peas indoors or did you direct sow them? Thank you for the tour :) Yours is my favorite "youtube garden" that inspires me. I hope my garden is as beautiful as yours someday 🙂
What a wonderful selection of veggies and flowers! You are making me want to move to Arizona more and more. So envious of the year round gardening. I love having the 4 seasons in the Northeast but watching these videos really make me want to go out in my semi-frozen garden. 😅

That's been a big goal of mine and I've done a few things. I recently redid our drip irrigation to make it more efficient. We got rid of the last of the grass and installed artificial turf in areas that we use for recreation. I am in the process of installing a rain harvesting system that will take advantage of the rain we receive. I'm looking for other ways as well.
I’m having a hard time getting Thyme to grow, too. I use it in herbal teas and I just can’t grow enough to get enough to make tea. It’s unfortunate. You said you’re growing Black Strawberry Tomato plants? This is different from the Black Cherry Tomato plants? I’m growing the Black Cherry now and am surprised by how tiny they are. The Black Strawberry looks like they are bigger. You have a beautiful garden and so much space to put so many things. It’s truly amazing!
Great ideas. Thank you for the tour. I finally ordered my first two raised beds in galvanized steel. That pesky termite issue has always prevented me from doing raised beds & my container plants never produce in large enough quantities to make gardening worthwhile. It gets frustrating. So I'm hoping the raised beds will fix that issue. My HOA will not allow citrus trees in the fruit yard & totally ban mulberry & olive trees d/t the mess.
I got the entry arch from Terra Sculpture: www.terratrellis.com?sca_ref=2693320.rpr2HflHtt Here is a video I made about the other ones: ruclips.net/video/gMW99neaPpc/видео.html
@@GrowingInTheGarden thank you so much!! I LOVE nasturtium. We make a salt with the leaves, eat the blooms on salads. I have heard of the seeds as capers I've never tried them though. I enjoy your channel so much. We went to Flagstaff during the summer, we're from the east coast. The ponderosa pines made us have to leave. Do you have ponderosa pines as far down as you are? I wanted to see a saguaro 🌵. I would love to live in the desert. I used to think the beach was my place to find solace... until I went out west and discovered the desert! The painted desert... The most unusual place I've ever seen! I LOVED IT!! Thank you for letting me ask you questions. I work for a company called Acumen out of Mesa. I think we need to go to headquarters for a meeting...😂
Beautiful! It's ethereal to look at such a lush, full of life and color garden, when it is snowing outside! Hello from Chicagoland-zone 5b! I've been learning a lot from you even though we live in totally different climates. Well done!
Great video! We've been waiting for the tour :-) Did you put down weed/grass barrier for your whole raised bed zone? We started over the top of a decades old bermuda grass lawn and it's been a nightmare...
Yes, I put down a fabric weed cloth in most of the areas that had bermuda grass before installing the wood chips and raised beds. The exception would be where I have in ground areas - I did not install weed cloth in those areas.
Can you do some square foot gardening planning videos and how you plant each vegetables beside each other for fall and summer crops
Definitely! I have one coming up.
@@GrowingInTheGarden just finished watching the video while I'm walking my dog
Lovely!

Thanks Penny. I'm really loving flowers lately - hoping they all bloom this spring! I'm excited to see all you've done at your place too!
Ehhhhh it was all great until the ASU part... 😉 Loved all the rest ha. This was so relaxing, thanks for sharing
Ha! You must be in Tucson - I should have had a warning about that part. Go Devils!
Can you please share from where you got the trellis shown in time stamp 14:19 . Thanks in advance

How long can you keep your Citrus and fig trees in half whiskey barrels before the Roots become too root bound? And how do you handle that?
Usually 3-4 years then I take them out, trim the roots, prune them back a bit and add fresh raised bed mix.
@@GrowingInTheGarden thank you
Nice yard garden and huge yard, especially for Arizona!
I banned alyssum from my garden because the flea beatles deciminated it and I had grown it for years. I have wild arugla and didn't want to take chance so bye bye alyssum. I loved it though. I know I could use beneficial nematodes but I haven't brought alyssum back.

Hola soy de chile y me gustaría poder entender lo que explicas podrías poner traductor en español
I will look into that.
Nasturtiums in winter 🌼 that's nice. Mine give up after the first frost ❄️
We typically only get light freezes and if we get a freeze I'll cover them.
What zone are you in? How do you care for your citrus trees when the cold season comes in?
Zone 9b - most years they are fine. If we get a frost event I cover newly planted and container citrus.
Beautiful
Do you start most everything from seeds and transplant to the garden?
It depends on the season. This year I wanted to grow a lot of different flowers that aren't available as transplants so yes I did. Other times, I purchase more transplants.

I'm amazed that you have warm weather crops right along with the kohlrabi and cilantro. I didn't see any squash plants. Your garden is amazing.

I don't see the white worm feeder buckets. Did they not work out?
They are still there, I’ve buried them deeper and I’m also using hardware cloth / wire baskets as buckets. They are working great!
@@GrowingInTheGarden Oh, thank you. Good to know. They look like such an efficient solution.
Forgive me if this seems like a dumb question but why exactly do you want caterpillars in your garden? I thought they were bad for gardens.
These were butterfly caterpillars although I thought it was late in the season.
Gulf Fritillary butterlies - pollination and biodiversity. Plus, I really enjoy watching the butterflies :)
I am in zone 9b too and grow many of the plants you mentioned. I would love to know about your trellises. Did you make them or purchase?
She did a video on all of her trellises. I watched a few months ago but to be honest I was a new follower and it could have been an older video.
Both - here's a link to a video about them:ruclips.net/video/gMW99neaPpc/видео.html
Where do you pinch off the pepper plants for more growth?
Just above new growth. I'm planning to do a video on that soon.
Do you plant the green onions with the tomato in the same square
Sometimes - the tomato usually grows up and the green onions fill in around it
Where did you get your arch starting into your garden?

@@GrowingInTheGarden Thank you. I have been looking for a good sturdy arbor/trellis.
How many garlic cloves can you plant in a square foot?
I usually do 9
@@GrowingInTheGarden thank you so much!! I LOVE nasturtium. We make a salt with the leaves, eat the blooms on salads. I have heard of the seeds as capers I've never tried them though. I enjoy your channel so much. We went to Flagstaff during the summer, we're from the east coast. The ponderosa pines made us have to leave. Do you have ponderosa pines as far down as you are? I wanted to see a saguaro 🌵. I would love to live in the desert. I used to think the beach was my place to find solace... until I went out west and discovered the desert! The painted desert... The most unusual place I've ever seen! I LOVED IT!! Thank you for letting me ask you questions. I work for a company called Acumen out of Mesa. I think we need to go to headquarters for a meeting...😂
Beautiful! It's ethereal to look at such a lush, full of life and color garden, when it is snowing outside! Hello from Chicagoland-zone 5b! I've been learning a lot from you even though we live in totally different climates. Well done!
Thank you.
Great video! We've been waiting for the tour :-)
Did you put down weed/grass barrier for your whole raised bed zone? We started over the top of a decades old bermuda grass lawn and it's been a nightmare...
Yes, I put down a fabric weed cloth in most of the areas that had bermuda grass before installing the wood chips and raised beds. The exception would be where I have in ground areas - I did not install weed cloth in those areas.
