Hi Lee, I can't get over the difference in just two months. It looks beautiful with the different plants that you have chosen. I love the way that you explain everything 😀
Thanks so much Julie! It's come on so quickly with very little 'interference' from me. It's all about explaining the 'why' with gardening. That way other gardeners can learn and succeed more 🥰 Happy Gardening Julie. Lee
Glad you like them Donald! I've got some more autumnal videos coming soon too. Thinking I may even do some RUclips Live gardening questions soon if people think that would be helpful? KInd of an ask me anything live about gardening section each month. 🌿🥷😃
Thanks for the update! After watching the previous video, I was hoping with excited antipation that you'd done an 'after' to go with the 'before'! Love it!!
Fabulous looking border Lee. I too bought 72 plug plants for £2.99 this year, i potted them on for a few weeks and now half of each variety are in the garden and thriving. I kept half back in the greenhouse just in case they didn’t survive the winter. It’s amazing how much they grow in a few weeks.
Oh wow! You're truly the plug plant queen! They really can save you a fortune especially with a little bit of patience. 🥷🌿🤗 Glad to hear you're gardening like a true Ninja. Happy gardening. Lee
I love the idea of a plug plant feast. Can I ask - did you buy them online and if so where ( I’m down south so a Yorkshire plant centre isn’t going to save me money (!) thanks
@@wjs5773 I bought them from Thompson and Morgan on line a few months ago and I’d say to date 95% are doing great. Think I put a couple out in the garden a bit too early.
Looking fab already Lee,can only imagine what it's gonna be like next year🥰love verbena,I let them do their own thing,I have lollipop too but never heard of the rigida,those clusters are lovely,also how you've used different texture grasses👌I need more grasses now. Brilliant update 👏🏼
Cheers Roy! I've used Lollipop before too it's a great little specimen. Rigida is much more stout and has large flower heads. Easy to grow from plug plants too. Happy gardening! Lee 🌿🥷
Hi Barrios. Id had them in containers for a few years. When I planted them out I root pruned them. Ie used secateurs to slice through them and trim them sparking fresh root growth once planted. Well watered and bingo theyre fine! 🥷🤘🥰
Nope! I very rarely feed plants other than roses and vegetables. These all just grew with the existing earth and a mulch of leaf mould! Find out more about soil here Kaite. www.gardenninja.co.uk/what-type-of-soil-do-i-have/ 🌿🥷🤘
Hi Joanne. I do. I cut mine back late Oct early noc just to cur back the damaged or spent stems and foliage. Glad you’ve had such success with your Verbena! They’re a fab easy to grow herbaceous perennial. 🥷🤘🌿 Happy gardening. Lee

Such an amazing transformation Lee! It really does soften the brick exterior. Lovely planting combinations!
Thanks AJ. Yes its a really quick and high impact change! Hope you’re well! Lee 🥷🤘🌿

Thank you, Lee. I always love these videos.

Thanks Lee. Great to see the progress! Roll on next spring/summer when it looks even more full and lush!
Thanks Matthew! Should be a lovely ramble of one gorgeous plant to the next year! 🥷🤘🌿
Really informative, thank you. I really like the verbena and roses together.
Thanks Catherine! Yes they work so well together. Same as grasses and roses too! 🥷🤘🌿

@@Gardenninja ha ha ha I’ve never been called that before I love it. Truth is I’m a true Yorkshire lass and I love a bargain and a challenge.

@@wjs5773 I’ve just noticed Thompson and Morgan has another offer on plug plants. Not exactly the same as the one I got but still very good value.
I love what you do in your vlogs.
Great ideas.
Love your little dog.
Thanks so much Jayne! There’s plenty more to come! 🥷🌿🤘
Beautiful they have grown quickly 💕👍💐
They really have Mary. The faster they grow the less weeding I need to do too! Win win! Happy Gardening. Lee 🥷🌿🤗
The garden is looking good Lee . I'm going to get some of the grasses . 🐱 X
Hi Carole! I’m such a advocate for ornamental grasses. They really help keep a borders structure during the winter! Happy planting. Lee 🥷🌿🤘
Hey Lee. Very impressive. Love the choice of colour. Looking forward to see the border next year.
Blessings and much Love to you.
Thank you! Cheers Richard! 🥷🌿

Beautiful boarder lee I got a big boarder to do over these next 7 weeks when I say big it’s over 5 meters in length with three meters wide
Aww thats easy for a Ninja like you Rammnond. 😉🥷🌿🤘
Wow, I'm guessing that the trees came in pots so that their root system wasn't damaged when you planted them, hence establishing very quickly.

Such a fab transformation & gorgeous selection of plants! Can I ask what the trees are called that you have used in the border please? 🌱🌳
Thanks so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying my garden design work. Yes. They’re Oleaster. An evergreen shrub that can be grafted as a tree! 🥷🤘🌿
Loved seeing your border terrorist in the garden, the best dogs ever!
Aren’t they just!! I adore borders. Got a new little pup too! Head over to my Instagram to see more of them!! instagram.com/garden_ninja_lee 🥷🌿👌
Did use any fertilizer or feeds for these plant ?! Amazing how they grow so fast !

Do you cut back your peonies, if so, when? I grew some verbena bonseriasis (spelt wrong) from seed in 2021 and they are huge!
Hi Joanne. I do. I cut mine back late Oct early noc just to cur back the damaged or spent stems and foliage. Glad you’ve had such success with your Verbena! They’re a fab easy to grow herbaceous perennial. 🥷🤘🌿 Happy gardening. Lee
