    I hope "Over the fence" is not your neighbours garden, I laugh at the thought, I have been tempted to do that a few times LOL

    Rather than digging the point of my Felco hand pruners in the soil I use a long handled pointed Sneeboer spade. I use this tool EVERYDAY. You know the saying: "I wouldn't be caught dead w/o it". I wear nitrile disposable gloves and I try to hold the rose with my Felcos and yes, I still get stuck:-(

    I just done a ton of weeding for such a small garden. I put some mint seedling into the garden when going on holidays 2 years ago and forgot they were there. Dug out the whole bed and removed any trace I could find but I reckon I will be fighting it again

    Did anyone else misread the title of this as "Wedding advice from John Lord"? Sounded a bit off the wall, but was willing to give it a watch!

    Oh I think dear Teddy is looking a bit "weedy" himself .... I am itching to give him a wash and a bit of a trim up! Yes..... I have a lot of clipped box hedges in my garden and I can't help myself ! :)

  • @karenmullen6087
    @karenmullen6087 5 лет назад

    John , I just discovered bindweed in my garden. We took up an old deck and off it took. It has taken over my life. All I do now is pull it up. Lucky you don't seem to have it there.

    • @VancouverIslandgirl
      @VancouverIslandgirl 5 лет назад

      I hope someone can give us some tips on how to get rid of bind weed it too has taken over my garden ,I’m so discouraged.

  • @wendychandler8304
    @wendychandler8304 3 года назад

    What a riot! You have such tiny weeds - mine came with the Romans an the Jacobites with roots that long, deep down and far back.( Naughty, throwing over the fence.) Why don't you grow a woodland? NB Buttercup and Geranium are so similar that I weeded out my favourite plant last year,. Check all the species - I have them all. Just got the bark.

  • @laurenb6451
    @laurenb6451 3 года назад

    And I think it is fine to have Teddy showing the name of the plant under discussion. Usually you catch a glimpse of the plant in the video but also you can write the name down and look it up later. If it goes too fast then pause the video and take your time writing. I just wish the plants you highlight were available in the USA. Drives me nuts!

    • @johnlordssecretgarden
      @johnlordssecretgarden  3 года назад +1

      It can be hard to source plants at times but many great plants come from the USA. Where would we be without the small leaved sages and Hydrangea Annabelle, to name just two.

    • @laurenb6451
      @laurenb6451 3 года назад

      True but since the USA gardening videos are not very good, sorry to say, I am enjoying yours and am in a pretty constant state of plant envy. Ah there are worse things, right?

  • @user-gi2kq5iu5l
    @user-gi2kq5iu5l 5 лет назад +3

    I have a good idea for the editor, when showing the plant or weed name next to the highlighted text place a picture of the accompanying plant instead of Teddy. Teddy's picture should only come up when his name comes up. Otherwise, I don't know what the plant or weed looks like. Teddy is not a weed lol

    Think I have watched all of your videos to keep me going over winter. Really enjoying them. Great Irish channel. Defo planning a visit to rathoath. I’m currently taking root cuttings and lifting seedlings of oriental poppies. Do you have any advice?

    Ha I always felt guilty when I used my hand pruners to dig out a weed. Now I won’t!

  • @Nhoj31neirbo47
    @Nhoj31neirbo47 5 лет назад +4

    It’s quite fascinating how ‘weeds’ have evolved to look like other plants. Even more amazing is how they tend to seed themselves in the vicinity of their lookalike. This phenomenon is not at all helpful to the fastidious gardener.

    John, any chance on getting your advice on dealing with crabgrass? In Canada we have quite a bit and they are very tough.
