You'll see us (well, Lars) getting our hands dirty, weeding and tending to our beloved plants, and sharing our excitement as we discover each new flower. From the delicate petals of Iberis to the vibrant hues of Phlox and Wallflower, there's something to delight in around every corner.
We'll also take you behind the scenes as we move perennials to optimize their growth and give you a look at the unique foliage of Euphorbia Amygdaloides 'Purpurea' and the charming blooms of Dodecatheon meadia.
And of course, no garden tour would be complete without a visit to our greenhouse, where we'll show you what's growing inside and share our plans for the summer.

Sometimes I wonder if a garden is worth all the hard work and then May arrives to remind us! Your garden is just stunning! ❤
That is a beautiful way to think about it... if we can just wait long enough, blessings will come 🥰
Thank you so much for the video. I am amazed you don't use mulch. When you explained your plants are close so you don't need it that makes so much sense. I am older and it is getting costly and hard to mulch every year. I am going to try your method of close planting. Thank you. Everything is looking great in your garden.
It really works well for us. Even in our first garden, we didn’t mulch. Planting tight keeps the weeds away. The only “drawback” is that we find we need to move things often - when plants grow large, etc. But that’s ok 🥰 and gives us more free plants.
What a stunning garden! Your mix of bulbs and perennials, the wonderful variety of plants, the stonework and structures, the color combinations, so well done. Thank you for your hard work. I visited Denmark many years ago and fell in love with it. Happy gardening!
So glad you liked Denmark 🇩🇰. If you ever come again, stop by Fredericia. And TUSIND TAK for the wonderful compliments 🥰
아름다운 정원입니다. 여러가지 꽃을 섞어 심어서 색채가 더 다채로워요~~~❣453
Thank you for watching! Greetings from Denmark to you. And you're right... the more variety, the more colors :)
Wow, what an amazing perennial garden! All the plans beautiful together!
Thank you ❤️. Things are moving so quickly now! Happy gardening to you 💚
I love your garden so much, all the variety of flowers/plants. You both have done an outstanding job in your garden, thank you for another wonderful video!
What a lovely comment to wake up to! Thank you so much for sharing your kindness :)
Your garden looks wonderful and it's so nice to see the sun. It makes such a difference to us and the plants.
It really does, Wendy! And with the days getting longer and longer... we'll get more and more of it :)
Gorgeous!!! Well worth the wait!❤❤❤❤❤😊
Things are growing so fast now - warm weather makes a huge difference.
Oh wow! Just stunning! I can’t believe how tall some of those tulips have grown. Really pretty! 🌷
They take a while to bloom (compared to you guys) but when they do, they've been tall and pretty for a long time. Thanks for watching! Hope you guys are enjoying a great Mother's Day over there.
Your gardens are looking beautiful! I added shade cloth to my small greenhouse this year and it’s been a game changer for controlling the high heat temperature. It’s completely changed the climate inside. So much more manageable!
You know... we've been talking about that for years now. I think it's time we do the same 🤩 Thank you for sharing!
“This video is truly soothing. The combination of natural beauty and calming
music has a truly healing effect.” Have a happy day today too.
That's great to hear! Thank you for enjoying our garden with us!
Your garden is so beautiful, as always. Whenever I watch your garden videos, it's "Wow" to me.❤
That's great to hear! and really makes our day. We're actually doing some renovation this weekend... we're going to have a few more flower beds soon :)
So many amazing layers!
Thank you for watching! And for appreciating the layers... that's a great way tot think of it -- layering 🥰
Beautiful. Your channel will explode one of these days. Your garden is amazing and all the propagating and plant info videos are so helpful.
It's a great way for us to remember what we did last year anyway :) And hopefully it finds an audience with wonderful people like yourself! So very glad that you find it useful :)
Your garden is looking beautiful. You should be so proud of your accomplishments. I love the tool you are using it is great.
Thank you so much! These tools were a gift from www.dewittoolsusa.com/dutch-hand-tools and we really do love them. Our first set of top-quality tools ❤️
Your garden looks so pretty now, thanks for the tour. I love that gorgeous geum. Lots of lovely blooms has started in the garden, and i love this time of year. Thanks for sharing and happy growing 😊
Happy growing to you, too! Everything is going so quickly now - feels like something new is out every day 💚
I love your garden. Everything looks healthy and beautiful! I also plant perennials in my garden. Thats how I save money and have such a beautiful garden every year.😊
Perennials are the way to go! And they’re easy to move if you ever want to switch up an entire area 💚. Thanks for watching 🥰
So much beautiful colour! Love the groupings of assorted tulips everywhere. Many of the perennials I have too in my zone 3/4 Canadian prairie garden and am looking forward to blooming. Thanks for sharing.
I bet we do grow a lot of the same things! Hope your garden comes to life soon 💚💚 thanks for letting us hear from you 💚
Tusind tak for fremvisningen. I've got a lot of ideas, and inspiration. Hyg jer!
Velbekomme. Så dejligt du kigger med🥰
I wonder if your conversations together are mostly about plants. Sometimes I dream about my garden at night. Great garden and work you guys do together.
We do talk about plants MOST of the time 🤣 Right now we talk a lot about seedlings and how we need to sow less next winter (it's the same conversation we have every year at this time. haha)
Garden is awesome and so truly naturalistic. Plus, I learned exactly what length to cut back the tulips when they are spent(essentially, deadheading) until the stalk yellows. See, no one else give those kinds of specific tips to those of us who are new to gardening.
Thank you for letting us know that it was helpful! Our tulips come back every year (we don't have to dig them up), so this method works the best for us. 🥰
Beautiful flower...
Thanks so much for watching! Greetings from Denmark to you!
I am missing the trampoline! 😅 Fantastic garden, guys!
😂we are not missing it at all.
mind blowing
Thanks for watching! Have a great weekend :)
An incredible garden! Everything is in such harmony together. 🎶🌷🌺🎶
I have some Jack Frost Brunnera (first year to see the blooms). I really love them and plan to spread it around my garden as you did. Thank you for your inspiring videos and I agree with a previous commenter that your channel will explode!
Hopefully yours will spread like ours does... and you'll get to enjoy digging and dividing it and giving it away every spring, too. 🥰 We're in an area similar to Zone 8a (altho Denmark doesn't officially use USDA gardening zones, of course)... but maybe that helps to know ☺
And thanks 😊 We're just glad to be a part of a such a kind community on here! You never know with these things... but we're very thankful that everyone has been so kind for our first year.
Loved the video , Im a new gardener I dont have the same enthusiasm about my yields yet . Even if I only get one tomato I'd be happy .
It all starts with that ONE plant 🥰 Hope your tomatoes and everything else grows up so nicely.
Love your videos, your garden has s beautiful, from USA
Thank you, Deb ❤️. It’s coming to life again. Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
Lovely video - thank you!
Thank you for watching with us, Suzanne 🥰
Beautiful garden
Thank you so much! Hope you have a great gardening week!
I would recommend to cut some foliage off the plant after moving. this helps settling into the new home.
Beautiful close-ups of the plants and blooms
Thank you so much! We're ttying to show enough... so glad you appreciate it :)
bông hoa màu timd rất đẹp
Thank you for watching! Greetings from Denmark :)
상큼한 내음 풍기는 전원의소리를 마음에 꼭꼭 담아봄니다^^😄
너무좋아요 그 감동으로 에너지 충전 오늘을 열어갑니다❤
유친님도 행운이 함께하는 즐거운하루 되시기바람니다❤조아요👇💘💘💘
Thank you for the sweet message! Big hello from Denmark :)
All your work is evident with all the beauty. Thanks for sharing. I would love to see how you plant your Lupine in the ground or in pots. Please and thank you!!!
Sure thing! We planted some from bare roots: ruclips.net/video/0_Ue_cNOrTs/видео.htmlsi=pcCfXJDvlf7F_IvL
And here is Lars planting one last year (altho it's in Danish) ruclips.net/video/0un8OO-9dxk/видео.htmlsi=2DbmQl1cESlNLL6j
He's basically talking about spacing... because lupines have a wide spread, so keep that in mind.
Hope that helps :) If not... let me know!
stunning ❤❤
Thank you, Pablo! Love your content, too. So many flowers that we'd love to grow here :)
@@perennial-garden 💜💜 grow more
Hello
Nice garden😍🖐️
Hello! Thanks so much for watching :)
مشتل رائع جدآ توجد بة جميع الزهور والورود شكرآ جزيلآ لك 🎡💯🥎
Thank you for watching! Greetings from Denmark.
Wow so beautiful colorful display of flowers, thank you very much for sharing. Love from Washington State 👍😊🙏❤️👏🏻🌷
Thank youuuu for watching! Things are moving so quickly now. The warmer temperatures make a huge difference.
Fantastic tour! 🌸 Jeg syntes det er ved at være på tide at I laver en tour hvor Allen taler dansk 😃 Smilede over hele femøren da han sagde “skumblomst” 😂😂❤️ 😊 I er fantastiske 🤪🌸🌸👏🏼👏🏼
hahaha! I almost called it a skumfidusblomst --- I could only remember that it was foamy something ;)
And we should do that... altho I think only Lars would understand me. haha
@@perennial-garden - 😆😆🌻
👌👌
Thanks for watching :)
Your enthusiasm is a joy. What variety is the red erysimum? Beware Firecracker. It really makes itself at home!
Thank you for watching, Viv ❤️. It’s a ‘Vulcan’ - Cheiranthus cheiri ‘Vulcan’ - it’s also 6 years old (the one we showed in the video). We have another one in the front, near the pots, that’s not quite as old.
❤❤❤
I see a few of the same plants in your garden! 🥰
💜
Thanks for watching 💚💚
I had an adventure with a silly wabbit and my beloved geranium Samobar yesterday. I looked out to see the silly wabbit dining on the leaves and the buds, so I grabbed the first thing at hand outside, battery-operated pruners, and went whirring into the garden like an avenging angel 🤦♀️🤣
I'm quite ashamed of myself today 😜 poor wabbit, I had never given it any reason to be scared of me before.
Is the candlestick primrose in the shadier area of the garden? I love how you've paired it in the garden. I will spread my primroses around a bit more. Ty!
I feel that way every time we find neighbors cat loitering in the back of our flowerbeds. Argh. Altho a good handclap is all I do 😂. And I’m sure that rabbit will forgive you - just look at Peter Rabbit! They became friends and even made 2 movies 😂
Oh! And yes - Altho most of the garden is in shade today. Back to rainy weather. Sigh.
The only “full sun” parts are the very front where the tulips in pots are - the rest of the garden gets sun in different times of the day (from noon onward in the summer) ☀️
Thank you for highlighting your anemones. Now, I'm convinced to plant the bicolor ones for next year. I bought my anthriscus silverstris from a nursery in a small pot, repotted in a larger vessel for my balcony and it has been growing and blooming to no end. It's a pure joy but does that mean it will die this year? If yes, and since all my pots are in a balcony and I am not able to depend on it self-seeding, how can I propagate it? Cuttings maybe?
We’ve never taken cuttings - and I’m not sure you can… as the stem is quite hollow and wouldn’t work so well.
Collecting seeds is the best bet - it’s quite easy to do and you can winter sow them for the best results. Altho you’ll only get foliage the first year, flowers the second ❤️
How will you have any space for your anuals! Lol beautiful Anenomes
Good question! haha. Actually... we bring in annuals to fill in spots once a perennial is finished. And if we need a pop of color in a pot or something. Otherwise, it's pretty much only perennials :)
Beautiful 😍 garden. May I ask what was the name of the invasive plant your neighbor gave you? Thank you 😊
It was the Chameleon plant. We made a video about how we're trying to get rid of it... ruclips.net/video/5oaPybahSQw/видео.htmlsi=u2fOOSbI8nE5eLvO
We think we have a handle on it now...so let's see where it pops up again.
I do not have the trouble with the brunnera reseeding. Not sure if it is your variety or the fact that i have very clay soil. It is amended but clay non the less. My brunnera is Jack Frost.
We have the Jack Frost, too... and they both reseed a lot. No big problem tho... they're easy to dig up and pass on :)
@@perennial-garden Sure it is the clay soil that effects the reseeding. I usually just divide it and move it about every few years. It doubles in size relatively quickly.
@@CA-rx9ze And Jack Frost is Lars's favorite! He can't get enough of it :)
Can you take cuttings of the iberis sempervirens? Or can it only be grown from seed?
Both! Thankfully. So there's no reason to not have lots of it in the garden. :)
@@perennial-garden Glorious! Going to take cuttings soon as they're done flowering then! You guys are awesome!
@@brocktoon8 And the name is so sweet -- 'snow pillow' in Danish. ahhhhhhh
@@perennial-garden Yes - adorable! ^^
Two-lips 💋
Are they Finish ed, or
They're Danish
😜❓
What a Riot of colors
Wonderzzz
Good to see you friends
Mm
Oh that Finnish joke! haha
Have a great week :)
Conundrum here. I have this NEED to share. But some people don't have that impetus. Pisses me off. You guys have it all over you. IMO that is consummate generosity. Shouldn't be so judgmental. But I am. Gonnae help me with starting tomato seeds. What music do you listen to? I love Killing Joke... love like Blood.
But not sure some of the seedlings can handle that baseline. VLAD XXXXXX
I'd never heard of Killing Joke before so I looked it up. I'm sure your tomatoes can handle it... they'll grow REAL tough. haha
We prefer 90s R&B over here... or jazz (crooners like Sinatra or Rosemary Clooney)... altho all our garden hears is the sound of seagulls these days. My goodness, they are everywhere making nests and starting families.
It's ok to remove allium foliage? That's good news.
We always do, yes - as they yellow so quickly. Then we get the pretty flowers and stalks - and make sure something else is near it to take the space.
