Your videos are just amazing. You seem to be the only account that isnt about expressing your own knowledge and knows how to effectively gather information and frame it simply and impactful with visuals. Love all of your different focuses and your voice is soooooo gentle to the ear. ☺️ thank you.
Thank you!
I really enjoyed the video - loved being "out on location" and what an interesting area.
Glad you enjoyed it, it's just such a treat to be able to be out on the beach in good weather in summer.
I love Verbena bonariensis. It does the same thing in my garden. I always transplant to where I want it. Easy.
This was like watching an episode of 'Absolutely Fabulous'.
Well, I hope that was a compliment. I enjoy Ab Fab, and do quite often feel like Edina.
Hah i get it a little bit ;) i doubt patsy knows any plants though beyond tabacco
Always enjoy your videos. The funny thing is that all those plants, or at least 99% of them, are plants that I use in my Prairie Garden.
Interesting, yes good prairie garden plants. I also notice that they do well in my dry garden.
Thank you Alexandra!!! Really enjoyed that vid! So different and delightful...! 💐
Thank you. It was rather beautiful to do.
Lots of information in this video and very well explained. You have worked very hard indeed. Thanks for all your help.🙂🌈
Ohh so nice. I like to be there. What a great Video once again. Good job.👍 I hope you enjoyed your day at the beach as much as I enjoyed watching. Thank you Alexandra. 🌻
Thank you for sharing. I live in Gorleston-on-sea, and have found this useful. Kindly, Craig
Glad it was helpful!
Great tips, thank you. We have a beach front pebble garden in Littlestone Kent and starting to plant up.
Sounds great!
Excellent video! So helpful even though I'm not right by the water. Gives me great ideas. Thank you again.
Glad it was helpful!
Love seeing the beach Even tho I Live in the middle of the USA. Far from any water.
Very interesting video Alexandra. Thank you so much! I enjoyed it! I have tried to grow some of these flowers though we are not near the shore. It was very nice to see this beach town and all the colors. Thanks for taking the time to make this video and inform us of these plants ❤️
Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos! Much love from Montreal *:･ﾟ✧
Nice
Informative and relaxing video👌👍
Love Whitstable beach. Thanks for your reply about Lurchers. We are now in the process of adopting a lovely boy from Dogs Trust. He is so loveable and calm. I may not have considered a lurcher before your reply so thanks from us and Thomas the Lurcher.
So glad, they are lovely dogs. Just don't let him off the lead unless you have absolutely checked the fencing!
We are busy repairing it. We get him next Monday.
Beautiful, I am Montagnard Jarai tribe
Nice video. Windy tick! Poor soil tick! I have most of these plants but being atop a hill which catches the wind has its own challenges.
That does sound challenging.
Im pretty sure we have rhodedendrons growing wild in the appalacian mountains here in N.C. to T.N. alot of them
Quite likely, as there are one or two types that are quite invasive.
BTW Good seaside garden plants are also salt-tolerant. Knowing which plants can take salt is especially useful for garden beds along or near roads, such as the front of your house --- particularly in colder climates where the roads are salted. And, of course, in any climate - just dogs stopping by... :)
Yes, salt is an issue too, and good point about when roads get heavily salted. Thank you.
Loved your video.. thank you for sharing ... the colour one can bring to a coastal garden is fabulous .. can you let me know if poppies are suitable for coastal garden,? I adore them.. thank you for your help..
Yes, I believe they are. It might slightly depend on your soil, but a packet of poppy seeds isn't expensive so give them a try. A lovely look.
@@TheMiddlesizedGarden thank you so much for your reply
Hello Alexandra, you look great, love that color on you, Thank you for another inspiring and informative video. What is the tan colored grass paired with the verbena? That is a fantastic combo. If the grass is cold hardy enough for my U.S. mid-western zone 6 region, I'm borrowing the idea to replace my front lawn. I understand the verbena is a USDA zone 7, but I can substitute an eryngium or Sanguisorba 'Chocolate Tip' for the structure against that mesmerizing grass.
Thank you! I don't seem to have a name for that grass, but it was at the Beth Chatto Gardens and you may find its name or something suitable and like it, on their website: www.bethchatto.co.uk/shop-plants.htm
Another great informative video. Would you mind doing a video on the best websites to order vegetable and flower seeds from in preparation for next year?
That's a good suggestion and thank you. It's a bit difficult as these videos are seen all over the world, while the seed companies are quite specific to each country. But I'll have a think about how to help people choose and find seed companies!
Thank you! Are those little summer houses or day rentals on the beach?
They're called 'beach huts'. Many beaches around Britain have these colourful huts, and you're not supposed to sleep in them, although a few do have planning permission for sleepovers. They're wonderfully basic inside but really a great place to shelter from the weather and make a cup of tea.
We live by the beach (though our back garden is sheltered by the house). We’re already planning the side return to be a seashell mulch, seaside planting area. Does anyone have advice for planting in part shade or full shade patches? I’ll just see if I can find the list of plants I’m planning on using.
Will any of these scream and die if they’re not in full sun?
Saxifrage
Blue star creeper
Seaside daisy
Compact oregano
lamb's lettuce
Fern
Thrift
Mexican fleabane
Purple cow parsley
Tufted hair grass
Chocolate vine
Fern
Mexican feather grass
Verbena
Mind your own business
Jasmine as a climber
Sea holly
Can I train any of these to go over my pergola from a planter?
The one problem with training a climbing plant from a planter or pot is that the planter restricts the root size, which ultimately restricts the size of the climbing plant. So you're unlikely to get very vigorous coverage of a pergola if the plants are in pots. But, on the other hand, almost any plant will grow in a pot, provided you give it regular fertiliser and watering, so if you don't want a very vigorous or lush climbing effect, then the pots should be OK.
@@TheMiddlesizedGarden thank you so much. Love your videos and like listening to your beautiful English voice 😊
