  • One of the biggest questions in gardening is how you can get year-round garden color and beauty throughout the four seasons. It’s important to always have something to look forward to…after one thing fades the savvy gardener knows that something else will come into Bloom and take its place of interest. #gardening #gardendecor #gardendesign #cottagegarden #gardentour #cottagestyle #backyard #springgarden

    Miss Linda, I think I posted this a year ago - but then you had so much going on... To keep the Salvia forever in bloom do this: Just before the plant reaches full bloom (needed for the first pruning/deadheading only) Determine which you consider as 'The Front Side/View' and trim the blooms off the Back half of the plant. When the Back half is ready to bloom, again deadhead off the FRONT half of the original blooms. Then repeat with trimming the back & front alternately. By continuing this half & half treatment, Salvia will be continually in bloom the entire growing season.

    Excellent, heartwarming video as always. Just finished 2 weeks of jury duty, which is an incredibly important civic duty but also incredibly stressful and draining and has left me exhausted and full of headache. This video was EXACTLY what I needed to see today - peaceful, calming, and balancing. A good dose of Linda gardening therapy. Returning to work tomorrow, but today, I'm recharging my emotional battery and looking after me with the help of you guys (starting with my own Thursday walkabout and doing some pinching out). Thank you for your time in providing these videos, and for feeling like a friend in a time of need- so appreciated ❤

    Lemon lane is looking luscious!!!!! I love chartreuse and golden shrubs in the garden. And larkspur and foxglove are two of my favorites. Anything tall and spiky has such a cottage feel in any garden. I would love my garden to look like yours, but i do not have an unlimited budget, And I was just at a local nursery here in California looking for some fever few and lemon licorice , and the 4 inch pot was $8.99!!!!!! I am shocked how the prices have skyrocketed.

    I can't imagine how much fertilizer you use or how you have the energy and time to
    tend to all of this. The roses out front are beautiful along with the foxglove which I
    could never get going. The larkspur is a favorite because of the color. Just WOW!

    Your front garden proves what most plants need more than anything is sunlight. No way any of that could grow as big or bountiful without sun. It helps to have a long growing season also. But there’s something else; you really know how to focus, observe, study and divine what your plants need to reach their potential. Very impressive.

My 2 Diamond Spire Gardenias handled our 19 degrees weather this past winter. They are also blooming now. I wish I could send you pictures of my before and after gardens. We moved into a new construction house in Oct 2022. I used the ‘no dig” method with cardboard, compost & pine bark mini nuggets using retaining wall blocks to create my gardens. It’s looking absolutely beautiful!

    The camera just does not do Lemon Lane justice. Absolutely gorgeous! The back garden just took my breath away! Just so so beautiful! Shorty and I so enjoyed our time with you. You are a wonderful hostess.
    We planted the delicious smelling gardenia in a pot so I can protect it this next winter and placed it so it can have afternoon shade. NW OK is difficult to garden in but we are tenacious!
    Perhaps we will be able to come again to see how your garden progresses through the seasons. Thank you again!

    I’m glad you got hostas. They are a strong element in my garden. The thicker leaves are hardly attacked by slugs and snails. Also, A tiny sprinkling of bait as they start to emerge cuts the population down hugely. I couldn’t do it this year because of a family puppy and really noticed the difference. Almost all of my hostas are in pots, fertilised by sheep pellets. they do really well and I don’t tread on them in winter when they are dormant. The garden is looking great. I really liked the 3 cane planters out the back

    Hi Linda and Stewart
    Very exciting to see how your planning worked out in the front and backyards. The colors I like to see are white purple and yellow but I really buy plants for species that will do well. I had red canna and they thrived. But I did not dig out the bulbs so it was a one and done. 7a New York is not tropical. We are still getting 30 degree nights here. It’s not time yet to plant the less hardy annuals but by mid May we should be fine. Herb planting is ok now too. I like the beige set with the black sweater you were wearing today. You look terrific and so does your garden! 🌷🌸🌞🥰

    I appreciate your videos and how in depth and informative you are! Your garden is amazing. I think the viewer would get a better sense of just how beautiful it is if the videographer would zoom out more often. The videos have gotten so jumpy and he can’t seem to keep up with you. When you’re talking about geraniums & he’s still zoomed in on a Swiss chard, it interrupts the flow and you have to stop explaining while he plays catch up. This may be the reason why people say the garden is prettier in person. It’s hard to get the full effect when very few shots are from a distance.

    A word to the wise about hosta. Last year I had beautiful hosta, which I had grown to truly love. One morning, I walked out to look and they were gone gone gone gone. Yes, the deer had visited my backyard so if you have hosta, please protect them the deer seem to love them as much as we do.

    Two questions, did your boxwood basil reseed (I have some seeds to try out) and are you still going to try a David Austen rose by the garage door? Great video as usual, the longer the better!
