    Hi John, haven't seen you in awhile. We have missed your videos. The hydrangeas are absolutely beautiful... The whole garden is absolutely beautiful. Please please do a video of the whole garden. There were so many plants you were passing by that I wanted to see! LOL absolutely stunning. You have different varieties of a hydrangea then I've heard of here in America. Always love your sense of humor.

    Yes, hydrangeas are heavenly. Thank you, John for this video and listing your varieties as you always do. It is so helpful. Now I will have the pleasure of watching again and noting which new plants to incorporate into my garden. Currently, I have 5 different varieties with my favorite being 'Limelight'. Never to disappoint, the blooms this year are huge! I wish I could include photos! Thanks again. Maria

    You have a wonderful mix of hydrangeas and plants that are thriving profusely in your warmer garden. Unfortunately some will not thrive as well in my zone 4/5 garden without winter protection. I really do love the “Zorro” & “Selena” bigleaf hydrangeas. Since I cannot grow them, I will enjoy looking at them in your garden! Thanks 🙏 for sharing! 💕🇨🇦

    John your garden is amazing. Everytime you walked around I just want you to stop and tell us more about the different plants. You have just added more plants into my wishlist! If I can respectfully suggest that you look into getting a better video camera. I've seen other garden bloggers with much better camera but only a fraction of your gorgeous garden. I don't know what to suggest but maybe something with a good picture stabiliser.

    You should try some Oak Leaf Hydrangeas. I have 8 varieties but the herd of deer where I live love them and ravish them - they are so tame the sleep 6 ft away from my deck ... of course it is right next to my hydrangeas too.

    Your hydrangeas are so much larger than mine. Do you feed them? Although three of mine are only a couple of years old due to their predecessors being badly affected by the very hot summer a couple if years ago, the one original hydrangea is quite old. How can I encourage it ?

    • @johnlordssecretgarden
      @johnlordssecretgarden  3 года назад +1

      I rarely feed our hydrangeas as the our soil is rich enough and we always mulch with bark. I noticed this year with the very wet late summer we has masses of late growth.
