Your summer garden looks great as always, every time I watch one of your tours I see at least 3 plants I want to try for myself, thanks for sharing Kris!
Your plants are looking soo healthy and happy, Begonia luxuriant it’s so full I only have one tall stem I should propagate, the blue plants are amazing, love your garden tours, thanks for sharing Kris!!!
It’s looking great as always Kris, packed full of colour. The Persicaria definitely makes a perfect exotic ‘ground cover’ for under your palms, it works well.
Thanks for the bonus your, Kris! Amazing how fast things can grow at this time of year isn’t it. Even more amazing that we can notice our own plants growing considering we look at them every day!
I wish we had a tour everyday! I managed to get a variegated banana plant green with bits of red on the leaves not sure of its name. I got it at plant World, Devon last week. Love your garden 😍
Very inspiring. Sadly some of my plans went wrong due to poor growth in compost I bought this year. , however as you say the season is different with flowers adding to the beauty. .
As always Kris your garden looks beautiful. I am curious in regards to the unusually hot weather conditions that we have now and again, overall do your plants suffer or benefit from the high temperatures.
I deal with hot weather too in South Florida, it burned away all of my tomato plants because I didn't provide shade protection. You live and ya learn...
Hi Kris, fellow Yorkshire dweller here. Just wondering if you've ever tried to grow Echium pininana? Just got back from holidaying in Cornwall and couldn't resist bringing one back to try. Supposedly hardy to -5c, I'll be keeping mine sheltered and watching the forecast closely!
@@Pilltechre I've grown them in Ireland for years and find them to be an excellent 'indicator' plant to suss out microclimates in the garden. In a sheltered spot, preferably backed by a south facing wall or hedge, they sail through even harsh winters but in an exposed spot they always die. Once you have one flower and go to seed, you'll have seedlings growing everywhere for years
@@King_of_carrot_flowers I think I have a spot to try it in. If it fails, my parents go to Cornwall often so there will be more attempts! Thanks for the tip 😉
Have you tried Colocasia gaoligongensis? I hear conflicting reports as to whether it or 'Pink China' is the hardiest, but I guess we also have consider which grows best in cool summers
Hi Chris, great video! Can I ask a question? Just wondering if you’d consider travelling to me (in Shropshire) to look at my tropical garden and give me some practical advice? I’d pay for your travelling costs. Alternatively do FaceTime and I’d pay for your time? I’m not sure whether I’ve got things in the right place/things too close together…I need some help and would really appreciate your expertise. My garden means a lot to me and I’d feel more confident about it if I could talk to you! Thanks Sue
The hot weather can be tough on plants, but overall they tend to benefit from it. The extra warmth speeds up the growing process, so plants tend to produce more fruit and vegetables during a heatwave. Of course, they need extra water to survive the heat, but overall they tend to do better in hot weather. As Christians, we should be thankful for the hot weather, even though it can be tough to deal with. The heatwave is a reminder that God is in control of the weather and that we should trust Him, even when things are tough. The Bible says, "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus" (1 Thessalonians 5:18). So let's thank God for the hot weather, even though it can be challenging!
We are in our 70 and thanks 👍 to your garden and tips we are changing our garden

Yes at this time of year, growth continues to be rapid

Fantastic, happy growing

Yes I had issues with poor compost this year as well. As soon as plants went into the ground they really improved.

I've grown it a few times but always when we've had a cold winter so never had one flower. I'm be trying again though
@@YorkshireKRISfingers crossed for a relatively mild winter! I'll look forward to seeing how it goes for you too, cheers ☺️

I have indeed. I have one growing happily outside ready for it's first winter in the ground
