No...I totally see it! Your driftwood does look like a person laying on the side. Great eye...not only in the garden...lol! My butterfly bushes suffered this year too.
I love your garden style. I watch Laura and Jenny and Jack but yours is the one I want to emulate. It’s a perfect blend of hardscape, trees, plants, and whimsy. I just love it!
Love that you call the other RUclips gardeners by first name (we know who they are and watch them too!). But Mike and Jessie’s garden is different. I really appreciate this garden space. ❤
Mike, I always enjoy watching your videos and seeing your lovely gardens. Also, I love hearing about the projects you have planned. You made me chuckle when someone sneezed quite loudly from the neighboring yard, and you said, 'Bless You', without missing a beat! That's exactly what I would have said, lol, even if they couldn't hear me. Have a wonderful weekend, hopefully, you'll get some time off work, so you can spend time in your gorgeous gardens. ~Margie🤗🐝🦋💐
Many years ago when my gram and pap and cousin came to nc to visit with us,on the way back to Pa we stopped on the side of road so she could pull some tiger lillies out the ditch,they are still thriving in their little yard in the city,my cousin sends pictures almost every year since she now has that home 😊 Love all this! I was even inspired and put up bird feeders and pulled the bird bath out,my grandson loves watching the birds 😅
Autumn Joy Sedum: 1st season I pampered it like a new born and it was just blah….2nd year I watered it and fertilized it but not so much and it looked better but it flopped all over….this year Laura (from Garden Answers) said sedums love poor soil so don’t fertilize and don’t over water them. So this season I’ve ignored my Autumn Joy sedum and I mean ignore….haven’t watered or fertilized all this season (and we had a major drought). It has only received rain water and maybe a trickle of water from what runs over from my flowers. I have never seen them look so beautiful. They shot up in growth and the heads are huge so I’m anticipating beautiful color this fall. What I’m loving most is how tall they stand. No flopping over or splitting in the middle. So try ignoring them next season. Thank you for all the beautiful videos.
Have the same con with the orange daylilly's, constantly pulling the dead leaves, also have large. Ambassador alliums, same issues , beautiful up top, leaves brown way before the plant is done in the garden.
Love to follow you! You have taught me so much. Can you video when you “cut back” the plants. Us new gardeners don’t know which plants can benefit from that. I have flopping plants but I don’t know how to do that. Thanks.
I really enjoyed seeing that you have the same problems and peeves as the rest of us (splitting plants)...we're all in this together! Beautiful gardens though. You and your wife are a great team.
You can make a wire cage around known floppy plants early spring. I use cheap chicken wire . The plants are supported and grow through wire. You don’t even see it once it grows in.
Wow! You work long hours AND have a garden that looks spectacular. Props to you my friend!! Keep doing what you're doing on this channel and maybe you can garden full time. I see it happening for ya!!
Bless you to the guy’s sneeze 😂 You have an excellent eye for texture and layering. No, you don’t recap, everyday, of what you just did a video on, you get it. Lived all over the world, everyplace was learning a different environment. It’s taught me why some plants sold don’t work in America, when it’s grown in a rainforest. My home in N.E. is best for successfully growing house plants. Have two trees inside too, they’re thriving. 🤷♀️ CA. is next, then the N.W., equally Scotland, S.E. Asia… the different trees and birds! Sweeping seeds from the walkway everyday, felt being watched, looked up at fruit bats staring at me! 😂 My son has family in Manhattan, KS. the humidity but lush, with black squirrels! Your garden is beautiful! Always look forward to the shifting with each video. ✨💖✨
Love your gardens. Great color and textures. I chop the middle of my Autumn Joy early June but only in the middle. Doesn't flop but keeps the size/bulk I like.
Love that tip pockets of groups of plants rather than many different ones. I’m totally guilty when I first started bought many plants. I’m glad you mentioned how bad our humidity can get here in KS. It may not be constant daily like the south but when it hits us, it is so bad. With extreme high desert heat mixed in. 🥵 Also, we’re always in a drought with no cool down. I wish our box stores in Topeka carried the good plants and clearance them. I think we’re too small with no help for good quality stuff in the big box nursery’s. They have gotten a little better but I still have to drive to Lawrence or KC in spring to find some good ones. I didn’t even know how beautiful hydrangeas were until RUclips cuz our Home Depot ones were so fried and crispy. 😂 Good video today!
Love your garden tours even with the neighbors noise lol. When your perinneals split, they need to be divided which gives you more plants! You probably already know that, but thought I'd mention it!
You have a beautiful garden, really love all the layers and different textures. You've done a fantastic job. Garden Pros - We have an acre of property so having the space is amazing. We're working on creating new garden beds, creating layers of different plants, shrubs and trees. I know once completed it'll look great. Garden Cons - Gardening maintenance on an acre of land is a lot of hard work, it can be very overwhelming when it comes to managing weeds. It'll get better in time but until all the gardens are established it's a huge amount of work but I do look forward to it looking like you're gorgeous garden.
Your gardens are magnificent, love the variety of plants. The sumac tree is gorgeous, love the leafy texture ,& the different color of all the flowers is so brilliant. Thanks for the tour thru your gardens
Another beautiful tour! thank you so much for sharing. I am doing a kind of a binge watching all of yours in the last two weeks. from April on, WHAT a change! I have watched a year ago your first ones and did not think it could get any prettier! but you have outdone yourself. just beautiful! all the bits and pieces you put together, makes is just right. A couple things I have learned for the sedums, yes do the Chelsy chop. they do better with less water. and when they start flopping in the middle, they need divided. the butterfly bush i just love those as well And have tried many over the years and they always die for me. I decided to try one more time after talking with a person at the nursery. she told me to prune down in the spring. and then they like fertilizer. like what you give your potted plants throughout the summer, so I am going to try one more time to grow one. your mop heads do not like a lot of water. I have one and it don't get but maybe 3 hours of sun. and it is doing good. love love your tours and how you put in your pockets. thank you so much for sharing. Genie : )
Yes you have done so many projects this year!! Incredible and beautiful. My sedum split so bad, I hate it. last year finally split it up and replanted them. So far they look great even changing color, darker. I’ve got 2 projects coming up inspired by your walls and bridges. Will see how it goes in Zone 7a. You are doing a great job and I love your videos.
Love your garden!!! The tall sedum, I give a “haircut” to around the 4th of July. Prevents the flopping. Yes, blooms will be smaller, but would rather have that than a mess.
Garden is looking beautiful, as always. Best, most creative hardscape on RUclips! Note: If you cut the tall sedums in half now, you can root the tops in moist soil in the shade. This will also encourage branching and double or triple the Autumn blooms. The Monarda or Bee Balm appears to have powdery mildew, which is caused by wet foliage overnight. This can persist from year to year, so best to treat it asap. Good luck! 😺✌️
I think that when plants start to splay open it’s time to divide them. If you do that in the fall it might help for next summer 🤷♀️ love your garden! Absolutely beautiful!
Wonderful gardens. Thank you for showing mistakes too. It helps us as well. Yes, I've been cutting back my sedum for 20 years. I picked up The Well tended Perennial Garden at the library. Good resource
Everything looks fantastic! Your garden is very inspiring. I love all of your little touches. Gardening pet peeve is creating a plant pattern and having a plant either die or not perform like the rest so it throws off the pattern. Worst pet peeve is this frigging heat...it can really be discouraging. Zone 9B
The one from Pennsylvania that has a 30 gardens and memorial Park in New Kensington PA and Amazon six and I just bought seven hydrangeas from Lowe's man they had a good selection I've been looking for these white ones and then I got to lace cap and then another nother pointed one so yeah I love hydrangeas so make sigard look pretty later in the summer okay talk to you later I love your garden bye
Beautiful garden tour! I don't know if this would work, but what if you try to scrunch up some chicken wire and put it behind the floppy sedum to prop it up.
I love your garden. I was wondering what are the names of the gardener's accounts that you follow? I am always looking for some great RUclips channels for inspiration. Thank you.
Hey, fellow gardener. Pinching will/should enforce a bushier sedum. I pinch my ground over succulents to keep them sturdier here in Zone 9B. You can try. Love your garden.
I just love your garden… so inspiring 🥰🌼🌳🌲🌳🌼🥰 And I adore your birdbath. Would you please tell me where you it? Thank you very much and best wishes from Vienna Austria 🇦🇹❤️
Explain what Chesley chop is or demonstrate, please. What happened to your dianathus? I was thinking of moving mine from a pot to the garden, but I don't want it to die. I love your garden and the way you arrange plants. A nursery personnel told me to plant 3 to 5 of the same plants in one area for the impact. With all the rocks, do you have snakes. We have copper head and black snaks so I avoid rocks.
I transplanted canna to my new flower bed this sping. They are now 10 feet tall and were beautiful until the Japanese beattles arrived. I pluck them off 3 or 5 times daily and get over 100 each time. I'm considering not having canna plants next year for that reason.
Love your garden. My peeve is that my daylily leaves get daylily streak. I love the flowers, but hate the foliage. I do cut back Walkers Low Catmint and Geranium Rozanne and they grow back to flower quickly.
I’m not sure if you know this or not but when you were talking about plants splitting in the middle I think you said the plant is done. A lot of the time it s the plant has matured and you can dig it up and split it and have 2-4 plants for the price of one. Free plants. Garden looks beautiful.
So beautiful, it's so dang hot. I live in ne Oklahoma, this is the 21st of August . 102 today heat index 115 today and I live in the country Tulsa, ok heatidex probably was 120.
Drawback to my garden: perennials that finish flowering and have to be cut down like bearded iris, catmint and salvia. Then you have a blank space in the garden. Hate it!
That low growing sedum splits because it’s either getting to much water or you’ve fertilized it. Those two things cause sedum to splay out from the middle. I also felt my autism joy sedum just way to big for its location. I love it but it’s a thug.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm blaming you for my almost daily shopping for new plants lol. Lowe's and Home Depot should totally sponsor you! 😂
No...I totally see it! Your driftwood does look like a person laying on the side. Great eye...not only in the garden...lol! My butterfly bushes suffered this year too.
I love your garden style. I watch Laura and Jenny and Jack but yours is the one I want to emulate. It’s a perfect blend of hardscape, trees, plants, and whimsy. I just love it!

Can you share those other channels with me please?
Yes, I look forward to knowing all the trees you have planted
You blow me away!!!! I love gardening and your talent is beyond me!!!! There is no words to describe your garden!!!!
Love, love, love this garden!
Always looking forward to the next episode.
Absolutely Beautiful!

My pet peeve. Daylily leaves yellowing and turning brown before the flowers ever bloom. Always yanking those out.
Have the same con with the orange daylilly's, constantly pulling the dead leaves, also have large. Ambassador alliums, same issues , beautiful up top, leaves brown way before the plant is done in the garden.

Thank you for mentioning my comment about the foxgloves , i almost missed it , had to back it up and listen again😂😂😂
We both said bless you at that same time😂🌸💚🙃
Beautiful Mark 🍃🌸🍃
Beautiful as always...love the idea of the reuse of the garden hose. I'm definitely gonna try it. 🌱💚🌱
Your gardens are really beautiful showcasing a wonderful blend of colours and textures of perennials and shrubs. Thoroughly enjoyed your video tour!😊
You have so many beautiful plants, I love you garden 🌺🌺
GORGEOUS so glad I found you! I wish I had your energy. I'm 72 and feel it. But you are very inspiring.thank you
I really enjoyed seeing that you have the same problems and peeves as the rest of us (splitting plants)...we're all in this together! Beautiful gardens though. You and your wife are a great team.

Our Golden Mop in South Central PA 2 are huge the other one is struggling. All planted the same time and within 15 feet of each other. No clue why🌻🌻

My goodness: what an oasis!! Your garden is gorgeous!! Thanks for the info on the round wood borders --I like them very much.
I do the Chelsea chop with my sedum autumn joy, veronicastrum and quite a few others. I'm in Cumbria UK. 👍
Good stuff. Looks Gr8!
Your videos are great from beginning to end. I do miss your bird that usually sings thru your tours. Tfs cheers

Me too.
Great Video buddy. How do you build those bridges? If you plan on installing another, please film it. Thanks
We're new to gardening. You've helped us so much with posting the names of the plants, takes your channel to another level. Excellent work!

I Chelsea chopped my Shasta Daises this year. Kept them shorter so the don’t flop.
good job on the camera work. I was able to watch the entire video without getting dizzy.

If your golden mop bushes are in a damp space, they don’t like wet feet.
Do you feed your plants? Can I come and take a tour?
Drawback to my garden: perennials that finish flowering and have to be cut down like bearded iris, catmint and salvia. Then you have a blank space in the garden. Hate it!
Jack Barnwell says he pinches back his sedum 2x so they won’t flop. I have started doing this and mine don’t flop.
What is the big silver tree at the very beginning of your video?
How do you keep your tiger eye in check? I want one but I’m afraid… lol
if you harvest the seeds on the mondo grass at the proper time, you can have as much mondo grass as you want forever.
I wish you and your brothers were my brothers. Shit I need iron stuff a moon gate, a welding brother. So pretty. Everything is
That low growing sedum splits because it’s either getting to much water or you’ve fertilized it. Those two things cause sedum to splay out from the middle. I also felt my autism joy sedum just way to big for its location. I love it but it’s a thug.
Nope, not just you. I immediately saw a little curled up person there.
That fetal stump
I love petunias and they will be doing fantastic then all of a sudden one morning a couple will be dying. And I don’t know why.😢
Are you an air traffic controller?
When sedum opens up in middle then its time to divide plant
