    I have your Weed Handbook Volume 1 and 2 - excellent little books both. I love that you include so much lore about the plants as well as very useful guides to their practical use. However, nothing's quite the same as sharing the experience of an actual walk with you around your wild coastal home. Thank you Terri. XX

    This is my absolute favourite of all your videos Terri. I was right there with you in my beloved Connemara and it reminded me of my heavenly childhood in the West surrounded by all the animals. How charming to watch the foal play with your dogs, to see the contented cows and admire the Twelve Pins in the distance. My cottage in England has hosts of montbretia and fuschia outside the door to remind me of Ireland. Thank you for a most delightful and fascinating walk.

    • @DanusIrishHerbGarden

      I ordered some hardy fuschia from Ireland. I live in KY, which is zone 6. I’m not quite sure it will survive outside here or not during the winter months. I never knew it existed until watching these videos. I love it and hope it will grow for me here in this climate. Any tips? 😊👩‍🌾

    • @DanusIrishHerbGarden
      @DanusIrishHerbGarden  4 года назад +2

      @@debbieconnelley342 I'm not sure Debbie - it is a South American plant that came to Ireland on the gulf stream. It did survive the severe winters we had in 2010 and 2011. We just stick it in the ground and it takes off so best of luck it does the same there.

Very beautiful countryside particularly at the end at the shore; relaxing and restorative just to take this walk. Thank you please make more of these as it really is helpful in learning to identify how plants are growing in the wild.

    Greetings from an old man on an old mountain in the South Pennines of West Yorkshire. I'm playing catch-up with your videos and loving every one of them so far. I'm intrigued by the mountain range on your distant horizon. A couple of years ago I came looking for clues about my ancestors who hailed from "somewhere on the west coast of Ireland". I stayed in a cottage near Cleggan and had views of similar, if not the same, chain of mountains. I forget the name; something like the Ten Sisters (?). Anyway, must get back to some more of your wonderful, informative videos. Best wishes to you and your family. Cheers.

    • @DanusIrishHerbGarden
      @DanusIrishHerbGarden  3 года назад

      Hi John, thank you for watching, so glad to hear you are enjoying the videos. Yes the mountains are the same ones, Cleggan is about 10 miles or thereabouts from me. The name is the 12 Bens or some call them the 12 Pins. Apparently they are older than the Himalaya which is why they are so small now! Best Wishes to you and yours.

I refer back to your little books quite often for herbal insight. I believe the Hawthorn plant saved me from absolutely giving up just a few years ago when my mother died. She does mend a broken heart Terri 💜🕯💜

    • @Moraymakeup
      @Moraymakeup 4 года назад

      Danu's Irish Herb Garden I actually order my alum through wildcolours.co.uk, although I also make mordant using rhubarb leaves or seaweed. Some even just use a pot made of aluminium for mordanting but I haven’t tried that.
      I make my iron and copper fixatives through pieces of the scrap I find and leaving them in a solution of vinegar and water over time.
      I do find the dyeing process water and electricity intensive, but have reduced this through reusing water where possible (same water to mordant then dye) and cold dyeing the material whenever I can. I find I get the same results if I just leave my wool in the dye for a number of days instead of hours.
      Hope you’re well and greetings from the East Coast of Scotland x

    It's so sad that, in the US, purple loosestrife is considered an invasive pest. When I worked in horticulture years ago we were always taught to pull it. Now, everyone wants to pull wild garlic for the same reason, and people spend a fortune on poisonous chemicals to get rid of the lovely and useful dandelion.
