Awesome space!
I suppose that the nursery wants to display plants that they offer for sale, but it would be so lovely to focus largely on natives!
The youth could see the beauty that our natives can offer in a traditional landscape setting.
Love to see the youth involved. They will be the ones to lead us out of the oppression of the industrialized agriculture complex.. Kudos Jim and Stephanie!
I wish you would incorporate the different types of gardens: cottage, formal, Japanese, woodward, dessert, rock, container, butterfly, raised bed, English, French, Greek, Contemporary, etc., etc. etc. and divide them into rooms. You could do everything you described in the video in this format, and it would give us design ideas as well as plant information. Many of us are as interested in the design element of gardening as much as we are interested in plant information. You and Steph do a great job. I live in ENC and will definitely be visiting your new garden. Thank you for all of the informative videos that you consistently produce.
It might be a good video idea to discuss plants you are initially considering but eventually rule out. Sometimes it’s as beneficial to hear the reasons why something isn’t a good choice.
So exciting and very happy for this opportunity for you and Steph.
Love to see you "On top of the 🌜MOON". Both of you are going to continue doing great things and I love being apart of this journey via these videos. Yeah! to 2024-2025 HORTTUBE!🌱🌳
I love seeing the wood chips no more mowing grass 🎉🎉😊😊
How cool that you also got an opportunity to put on your ‘Professor Putnam’ hat and teach a class! Looking forward to watching this space develop! Thanks!
Once this garden is established, it should be a destination for all ENC MasterGardener classes.
Jim,
Absolutely love that you took time to do a bit of teaching to the class! Bless you!!! ❤🙏
I LOVE you are doing this....for selfish reasons. I have a plan to convert my backyard so not a blade of grass exists. :-) So, I am following your lead on this.....
Such wonderful people helping you ❤
I had made a stone circle with sod upside down, leaf, dead grass and wood chips in it. In order to get ready for planting in a short time, I watered it down thoroughly and covered it with black plastic bags to create heat and no light and put some rocks on to have it in place.
5 weeks later I had almost 20 inches of compost with tons of worms, a perfect planting space. First year I had annuals because I hadn’t decided what I wanted there.
Exciting project! After you get the wood chips spread a forestry mulcher on a skid steer can further grind and reduce the chip size.
Wow, let the fun begin! Means so much to me as a beginner seeing your process - picking up sticks, mowing, spreading the first layer of imperfect mulch. My current process too. I’m inspired - thank you! ✨
Notably: In 3rd grade, our class took several weekly? Monthly? Field trips to a local Farm & Garden. I loved every minute of it, more than any other thing in my childhood -- I can see it in my mind's eye, like a set of color photos. I can recall the sunlight, the feel of the breeze, the sounds and aromas there.
The baby chicks we hatched, through their incubation period.
The seed starting, tender transplants, watering, hoeing, mulching. The wondrous harvest: flowers and vegetables both, again and again.
ALL OF IT.
I'm now 71.5 years old. What a treasured possession my living memory is to me.
Your ideas about these new gardens are life-altering. What a legacy, what a opportunity for you and Stephany to create a lasting thing, besides, of course, your progeny, your good work, your many extant contributions.
Note: Please try to get some high quality, production value film or video of Holly and Griffin at the new garden. Holly especially, at her elder stateswoman age.
Q: Could you feed some of the donated chips through another chipper to pre-break them down?
So excited about this new venture! I only live about an hour away so I will definitely be following your progress and visiting your new space. Yay!
Jim & Stephany’ wood chip wander trails!
**VERY** cool Jim and Stephany! Love the concept of it being a teaching garden 🌿
🙋♀️ I absolutely need a ‘Wood Chips With Jim Putnam’ shirt. Please and thank you.
The HortGarden 🌱
So great to see the kids there!
❤hello 🙏 Jim putnam and Stephany. Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 ❤.
Looking forward to watching you guys design and plant the space.
Congratulations! I'm so excited that we are all on this journey with you and Stephany.
EXCITING TIMES!!!
Very exciting! Almost missed this. I didn't get a notification.
Going to be grogeous
garden thank you
Jim and Stephanie
for sharing
🌸🌺🌹
You gotta come up with a cool name like “the Bristol Briar”!
That sets up for a “good tired”. So satisfying and exciting.
You’re a born teacher Jim! Good Luck with the new adventure!
I’m just so grateful for this content!
Got it, "The Holly Woods Garden"
wowzer - what a fabulous opportunity - another great HortTube adventure. I so appreciate you sharing the entire process from the very beginning. And how wonderful to be able to teach gardeners of all ages ... and inspire and encourage all who will visit this garden. Exciting indeed !!!!
Very exciting.
Love to see it.
So exciting!
Gosh Jim, this is exactly what we are doing. Moved to a new house , new state and have a blank slate. Right now I’m just trying to get wood chips down where I want landscape beds. These chips are pretty chunky too. I was planning on planting in the fall but if you are waiting until til Feb then I will too😁. Can’t wait to follow along.
Hi Jim! Can you talk about, maybe next video, advantage/disadvantage of using wood chips? We were thinking about getting some from our local arborist but we had some concerns after doing research.
HortWoods!
This is so exciting. So happy to be able to watch the journey from the start. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge Jim and Stephany! 😊
I can’t wait! Yay ! Thanks Jim and Steph
Very exciting getting to watch this all unfold in the years ahead. 🌳
the Stephanie garden would be nice
How exciting! I'm so glad there are younger people interested in the hobby! Horttube Garden is my vote on a name.
Hopefully more than a hobby. It can be a satisfying career.
New Bern! ;)
This is just a fantastic project. I love your vision for beautiful gardens and education of young people and other botanical types. ❤
Your guys are a machine with all of these videos
You mentioned there being some invasive plants in the initial video. Were those dealt with during this initial cleanup, or is that something that will be covered in a future video?
I'll talk about them in the planning video. Several things along that border including trees
Love what’s happening at the Gardens of Southeastern NC!
I’m in Southport and our garden club completed a large garden re-design this spring. Last summer we removed the grass and put down a thick layer of chunky wood chips. Trees went in during December and January; shrubs in January and February; perennials in March.
We think it’s an amazing transformation - but, we are still battling 2 persistent perennial weeds that thrive in southeastern NC - Florida Betony and Dollar Weed. True garden thugs!
Looking forward to following your new garden space in Willard.
Hahaha "Woodchips with Jim Putnam" has got a good ring to it
WOW ..this space is amazing with the trees and you can plant what you want 😊😊
Soooo exciting!
This is so exciting!
Whoop! Whoop! Can’t wait to visit!!
Apparently chunkier fresh arborist woodchips are actually great for weed suppression, as long as your layer is around a foot or deeper, at least per Dr. Linda Chalker-Scott. Can't wait to see what happens next February!
Excited for you, this will be a legacy garden.
Good luck with the garden! Wondering why you didn’t remove the grass with the front end loader. Skim off 2 inches and you’re in business.
Maybe have a viewer contest to select the name of this new garden?
..."Putnam's Paradise"!!!... 🤗👌🙌👩🏼🌾💚 =^..^=
I'm excited to see this space evolve. Maybe in a couple of years it would be a nice little road trip for my husband and I from Canada to the 'Putnam Community Learning Garden'.
Good idea.😊!
Woodchips with Jim Putnam! 🤣
I have decided to wood chip my entire backyard, and my front yard. I don't need a lawn, it makes no sense for me. I will use the front yard as a test garden and just dig a hole and plant a plant whenever i get a new plant in. Back yard will be more designed and thought out. Probably a good 70% natives 30% non-native.
That’s tub grinder mulch that’s why it’s so chunky they throw everything in there, stumps,limbs, tree trunks everything that doesn’t have value to sell basically. Much different product than what goes and comes out a wood chipper 😂
Call it putman botanical gardens!
Hey Jim, I have a plant identification question for you. In this video, at 8:19 on the timeline, you grab a branch of a shrub under a tree. You’re telling the class about it. I have this growing in my backyard and have always wondered what it is. Would you please let me know. Thanks so much for any help!
Jim, I'm curious as to who is funding this project? Between, water usage, power bills, labor and materials this could add up to a pricey project. We grow wine grapes in California and am very familiar with the costs associated with developing raw land.
Helicopters!!!! What do you do when you’ve mulched and now thousands of helicopters have fallen 😢😂
LET'S GO!!!
Jim and Steph Putnam garden. You need to have Putnam or horttube in the title
Pretty slick! Are you considering throwing nitrogen/fertilizer out to speed up the breakdown process of the larger chips?
❤❤❤
🙋
Does the wood chips pull N out of the soil as they decompose?
To 0a degree in the short-term, but returns it back.
If you don't name it the "The Holly Memorial Garden" or some such, I'll be disappointed.
3:00 that would not work for Bermuda grass. Evil stuff.... Still forking it out of beds.
That's really sad that 70 acres of trees were destroyed
🌳🌲🪴EXCITING 🪴🌲🌳
Progress! Baby steps to achieve the dream. 🪻🌷💚🙃
