New build spring garden tour, garden centre visit & haul!

- This week, we're touring my sister's new build spring garden, showing what she's planted from borders to raised vegetables. We'll film again in the summer to see the growth and progress and to see if they let me dig a new border! But if you want to see their garden last summer in its glory, I'll link the video below.
I also went to The Garden House in Malahide for a little peek at what they had and ended up coming back with some essentials (for me!) as the seed germination hasn't gone as well as I'd hoped this year so far.
But I'm ready to open my own tomato farm now at this point!
What are you going to be doing in the garden this week?

Joanne's garden is really nice, Karen. So lovely to see herself and her baby 👶 Any recording, vlog short or long you do I'll love watching 👀 😍 Garden or skin care/makeup I'm interested 😊
Your sister's garden is looking great! Thank you for the tour. I agree with you on houseplants - it seems as though a person is good at either houseplants or outdoor plants, but rarely both.
Love the garden center visit! And the plants you have germinating look like they're doing well!
Apple trees need at least 8 hours of sun per day. If I’m understanding, your sister’s spot by the wall is a shade garden. I’m the granddaughter of an apple Orchardist. 🍎🍏
Two days of sun in a row...I hear you...that Is bliss! 🌞🌄☀ Lovely family 🌸🏵🌺
I think your shade loving plant (near the shed) is an Astilbe as I have one with the white blooms.
Greeting's from the midlands, Nice video of your sister's garden, I planted raspberry's year's ago and I have a deal with my dogs and the birds who both love raspberry's. Just leave enough for me and my wife. They are easy to grow just dig a hole throw them in and up they will come every year.
I can grow just about anything outdoors, but I am on the struggle bus with my succulents indoors. I bought one from the store that had unfortunately had powdery mildew that I didn’t notice at first, and it quickly spread. I’ve finally chucked them all outside. If they survive, great. I still have an aloe vera, wandering Jew, calathea and an African milk plant (cactus) indoors doing well. I would need to start over completely with succulents.
I like the vlog style. Also the boring bits because it makes me do the boring jobs. 😂
It is so funny that so many people can grow succulents even if they can't grow other houseplants. I am the opposite I can grow most houseplants but succulents tend to die -- even Jade plants. I would like to know about the best soil to use and when or when not to water --looking forward to the video.
Lovely garden area. I am afraid those tree roots will outgrow the small area in one or two seasons. Tree roots need a lot of room to grow. Too close to the wall and the other trees. I know they look small now, but in no time, they will be growing into each other and the wall.
Joanne's garden is lovely! Any kind of video is wonderful, I do love the chatty ones too. They feel like I'm there visiting with a friend. You don't need a particular reason to go to a garden center, any reason is acceptable. My favorite reason is "just because " : ). Some of my seeds have been slow to germinate, hang in there. I'm sure your sunny days will wake them up.
Hello dear lady! I enjoy seeing you tackle the mundane garden tasks! Your videos often remind me of things I need to tend to in my own garden. In January, for my 72nd birthday, I decided to go roller skating! I was up on my roller skates for all of 10 seconds when I fell and fractured both wrists. I'm healing well and have planted seeds (thank you for the inspiration); I'm waiting for seedlings. My gardening may be curtailed a bit this season, but a little is better than none. Have a lovely sunny weekend!
I know what you mean 2 days of sun. North Texas rained 3 1/2 inches, no sun and the temperature dropped from 84F last week to 57F this week. The raised beds with the tomatoes would be so easy to add temporary "greenhouse" with light row cover to conserve the heat and help plants recover. (it is really early for tomatoes) Fruit trees would easily train to Espalier on the wall. Love pot plants on patio. Idea of extending the patio with small corner bed will create interest and space. Ginkgo tree is so pretty. Thanks for the adventure you two. Watching your precious baby so cute. Hope you have a good day.
Hostas in a flower bed is like playing Russian roulette with snails and slugs. I’ve never succeeded in growing them outside of pots for that reason.
Hi there, I have 4 hostas in my Borders that used to get devoured by slugs until I heard somewhere that if you put plenty of gravel round the base of the plant the slugs won't cross it. Tried it last year and hooray my hostas survived intact. I've put a bit more round this year so hopefully my hostas will survive again. ❤
@@suziejames7510 glad it has worked for you, sadly my slugs seem to be immune and happily cross grit and gravel. No idea why the difference. Always worth trying but for me it wasn’t successful even when was a large width and quite sharp pieces. Shrugs.
What a pity it didn't work, obviously you've got slugs that that are more determined than mine. I maybe should have said that the part of the garden where the hostas are are on the edge of a rockery where all the soil is covered with gravel so maybe that's why.
@@suziejames7510 that’s a thought though, I had never considered incorporating them into a wider rocky anti-slug (lol) arrangement. I’ll give it some thought. Thanks.
Gardening with your sis and plant shopping 💚
Well I was shocked, we had the sunny warm weekend, yay! 🌞 Lovely garden, I've an acer like that at 06:38 and my one is Acer Katsura. I don't know the purple Acer. Around 8.04 mark, that's definitely Foamflower, I love it ❤ I seen them in a salvage yard, of all places lol, Just took a photo on the phone and can search images with google. Went straight to garden centre and got one, now I've 3. I love your videos, great humour, attitude, I like vlogs, tours, make-up or beauty, reviews, how to's and ups and downs with garden, its all good. Inspirational ❤
Yes!!! The succulent video! Can't wait🤩I keep killing mine with overwatering😫They have a lovely garden😍
Karen the brighter light shows just how beautiful your eyes are☺️
Was at the garden centre today as well lol all I needed was soil but somehow plants found their way into my cart🤣 can't plant outside bc it's still too chilly but very soon. I can see my strawberries, Achillea and Phlox coming up. New Growth in the garden is exciting
Hi lovely to see you. Thanks for showing Joanne's garden it is doing great and so weed free. Nice garden centre and you didn't go home empty naughty lady. Catch you next time x😊😊😊😊😊😊
My daughter grows outdoor or winter hardy succulents like hen and chick's. She uses them in the fairy gardens she makes and sells😊
Hi! We live in a great area for growing red raspberries (NW corner of Washington state in the US) and Tulameens are delish! Happy growing!
My 2 days of sun this weekend I've been painting all my fences and I'm losing the will to live 🤦♀️, but at least I felt the sun on my back as I did them and it's getting these awful first jobs out of the way before the good stuff! xx (north england)
Enjoyed looking at your sisters garden and plants 😊😍 the garden centre looked like it had some lovely plants 😍😍 can’t leave without buying something eh 😉🤭☺️ I know I couldn’t. The aqualigia looked very unusual but I love it (not seen that before) hope your sunshine stays around for you 🌞🌻🌺💐
Oh I would have given you raspberry runners - but you didn´t ask. 😁They are taking over (especially the summer ones) - but I love raspberries and they are so expensive at the store - so all is good. It is so cold in Germany - so no gardening for me at the moment. Isn´t it just so fun to see the little seedlings come up? Have a nice week! 💕🌷💕
I don’t think cotton wool is a good idea for birds as they can get their feet tangled in it. I like a weekly video, already suffering withdrawal from Catherine going down to once a week 😆. I love the hydrangea with the red leaves, going to look out for that.
Tomatoes are wind pollinated so you can just give them a little shake to help them pollinate.
I can't wait for the succulents video.I really like some of them,but nervous about planting them.Love your videos
Swt video nyc seeing ur sister lovely haul❤
8:09 foamflower?
It's definitely a foam flower, Tiarella. Great choice for the wetter shade.
The plant you were asking about beside the shed is Astilbe ! Unfortunately Eucalyptus trees are not suitable for small-medium gardens as they grow to a height of 25m and 12m wide! They need to be kept small by pruning regularly! You’re doing great at your seed planting and I’m so envious of your Ammi majus seedlings! I never see them in the garden centre to buy! Great video!
The eucalyptus will grow extremely large I would say way too close to the Japanese elms. It is too close to the fence as well.
I like the vlog style but then I am greedy and like the once a week video's
I am totally the one that would kill succulents lol. My question is about watering. How often and how much? ❤
I think the 3 trees are way too close together. And be careful of jasmine and honeysuckle, they could take over the whole garden!
Azalea ❤😊
Thats what I thought too.
Karen you are beautiful in either light ❤
Love the garden but did your sister dig the up the lovely ground flowers pink ladies evening primrose from your last video .I 😢have been trying to buy them for ages but can’t find them anywhere.
I love your videos the way they are.
It's to early for tomatoes and cumbers to be planted out, that's why there so sad looking
Please be careful with eucalyptus, it's very invasive.
