    Oh my!!! I am so glad I found you. I am in the U.S. but in the same zone. You embrace a style that is so me. There's an element of formality it the overall layout yet within the beds.... you break all the rules! As if you say "try a bit of everything" And by gosh it works! So gorgeous! I will enjoy following you!!

      Hello Terry and a great big welcome to the channel. I'm glad you like my style of planting. I find it hard to turn down new plants hence the 'bit of everything'. Hope you find lots of interest on the channel. Now I'd better get out and do some gardening as it's a bright day so I'll say goodbye!

    Hi Rachel, nice Casablanca Lily, clemantis flowers, and pitcher plants. Catski is helping beautify your garden too .

      Thank you, Cheryl. I don't think they are Casablanca lilies although Casablanca ones are gorgeous. Yes, Catsky is such a help to me 😏

    Thank you for your videos wish are full of acurate advices. I' m delighted to listen to them as here in south of France the weather doesn't give us so contrasting colourful landscape.
    Thank you

      Hi Cathy and thank you for your kind words. The south of France sounds wonderful to me now in rainy Ireland.

    We are having a dreadful drought as well in Holland. I hope your expectations for rain came true. Your garden is looking spectacular anyway.

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 года назад +1

      Sorry for your drought woes! We have had rain here and it has helped but there is a deficit. There's always cause for complaint with the weather 😄

    Hi, Rachel! Your garden is so lovely and fresh for July! i particularly like how you have integrated the lillies and grasses (no stipas for me, though, they arent hardy here) into the rest of your garden. I have many grasses but only asiatic lillies I live in So. Indiana, US zone 6b. Our recent weather changes have been more rain in July and August so I'm transitioning from drought tolerant plants (they are keepers, though) to those that like more moisture. The tulip tree or as locals say tulip poplar is the Indiana state tree but I've never seen
    variegated one. Thanks again for sharing!

      Greetings from Wexford, Ireland to Indiana, US. Your climate zone is colder than mine but what I do love about gardening is that there is such an overlap in what we can grow. Thanks for watching and taking the time to share and have a great evening. Rachel

      Lilies are so reliable, as long as the lily beetle is under control

  • @pamelacorsi
    @pamelacorsi 2 года назад +1

    Beautiful! I moved day-lilies (maybe 8 assorted varieties) due to lack of light and they took 2 years to bloom but were spectacular this year!

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 года назад +1

      Thank you for that information. I'm not sure I will have the patience to wait a second year 😏 Hmmmm

    @wandashaw3551 2 года назад +1

    Hello Rachel, I just love your garden!! Beautiful and so many different kinds of plants. I'm sorry your day lilies didn't do well but I am sure peonies would look great in their place. :)

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 года назад

      Thank you, Wanda. Don't worry about that bed. I'll find something gorgeous to put in it!

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 года назад

      Haha. Some cats are so. Our Catsky, not so much but she does take fits of over zealousness.

    My compliments!So many wonderful lillies.When you cut them down?Maybe you have it already,but the last Lily I bought was "the nightrider" a very dark one....

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  Год назад +1

      Thank you. I usually just deadhead the lilies when they finish flowering and leave them until the following spring to be cut back. Nightrider is great

      Nah, there's no fence around the garden but we don't have deer here, just hares and rabbits. Thanks for watching and have a great Friday
