As a new gardener, in a new home, I just want to say thank you for doing this series. Your 'notes' on the amount of light and shade each plant is getting will likely keep me from spending hours in the future transplanting shrubs and perennials. Your advice on mulching has already been a game changer. Many thanks to you and Steph, I went from a self proclaimed plant killer to a gardening enthusiast in just under a year with your help 💕💕
This is so inspiring and educational! I really appreciate the drone shots to give perspective compared to the on-the-ground views. Thank you for all the videos you create - I’ve learned so much from you over the years and my landscape is improved as a result.
Jim and Stephany - I watch your channel religiously (some might say obsessively). How is it possible that I haven’t seen 90% of these plants?!? Drifts of one for sure. GORGEOUS.
Great video as always Jim, I really enjoyed the neighbor who walked out and said to himself , there's Jim videoing his plants again let me get out of the way then his dog comes to show you love, my favorite part !
I just love those drone shots! When I think about it, your tour videos like this one remind me of the gardening programming that the HGTV cable network used to have back in the 1990's. So your channel is definitely filling a void left by that network's decrease in garden programming! 👍
Thanks Jim, as always everything is looking gorgeous! I hope the redbud makes it, there is nothing more heartbreaking than losing an old tree in the garden. Cant wait to see part 2!
I love the drone shots of the garden, the circular patio and walkways! You can't see all that just looking at the garden at eye level. It is absolutely gorgeous!!🌷
Ahh. This series was worth waiting for! Absolutely in awe of how fast this garden has filled in … but… Please slow DOWN next time so we can savor the tour! 😂😂😂
Thanks for the video. You are one of my go-to RUclipsrs when it comes to gardening. I just wish you would include maturity height and width right under the USDA zones so if a plant gets too big, too wide, too small… I won’t even consider it. It’s hard to get excited about every plant you present then find out it’s not the right size for the space when I research more about it. Just a thought!
I really appreciate the organic flow of your garden. I have never been one to like square, "boxed-in" segmented gardens. Nature does not grow this way and I love natural displays of flowers, trees and flowers that just "fit" in together and flow. This "flowing" draws the eye into and through a magical floral kingdom with multiple surprises that pleases the senses.
Fantastic video, Jim and Steph! I love the tour. I can’t wait to see more. I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and I never realized how much of it I haven’t seen. Your garden is truly, truly beautiful. If this screening area was all you had, it would still be one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve seen. I just believe it. You really know how to use those colors to make every plant stand out. I really need to learn how to do that because sometimes my plants disappear. Thank you as always for the video and all the hard work you both put into your videos. I always learn something. I hope your redbud survives and thrives. It’s a beautiful tree.
I really enjoyed this video!! The overhead shots show off the beauty of your landscape design so well as compared to on the ground views. I was thrilled to have you talk about each and every plant because I'm always saying, "Jim, what's that one over there?" Looking forward to continuing the tour!!
Thank you for all your info such as your advice on over fertilizing plants instead taking care of the soil! Game changer for me! Your gardens front and back are amazing so colourful and your info on all of them is easy to understand! Looking forward to the rest of the tour!❤️🌺🏡🐶🇨🇦🍁
It's nice to see how good the 'Hot Blonde' Japanese maple tree is doing! I got one myself and as you explained I planted on the east side of the house to be protected from the hot afternoon sun. Thank you guys!
Okay #1 your neighbors dog is the bestest boy and we must protect them with our lives #2 random side note. I visited my grandmother in Pinehurst for the first time in the last few years and she told me her previously thriving patch of tulip bulbs over the last few years have not been blooming consistently and this last spring they didn’t bloom at all! Not one! That’s crazyyy to me but I also read a news article about how the USDA said that the zones are moving northward over time as our climate is warming which could explain but it’s just shocking to me to see how some plants are reacting to the changing climate especially a 30 year old established bed of tulips!!
Thank you for doing this video. I have quite a few of these and probably need to relocate a couple of mine. Mood ring podocarpus probably needs to go in a little more morning sun, it's mostly in shade, on the side of a path, which means I'll have to keep cutting it. My first dahlia opened up and the bees are loving it. They're little chunky bees, with a big black section, I've never noticed before in my garden😁. I have to limb up my snowball viburnum - Linda Vater had a beautiful tree specimen. Hopefully I will too. Thank you for all you and Steph do. Especially names on the screen💚
👍+💬 Thank you for the detailed coverage of your garden! Just love how colorful and dense everything is from what it was when you bought the property. The transformation is amazing but also seeing someone knowledge plant and design for their own property is very informative for everybody else.
Your videos have been amazing as a new gardener. Half the plants we have here in the ground at my house in zone 9b you’ve featured because your tips on them are so helpful. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the tour 👏🏼
I garden in 7 b also- upstate SC- I find my in ground lantana didn’t come back - also two Japanese maples- I miss plants all the time- worst freeze ever for my plants-many of my fifty hydrangeas are full of sticks- some bloomed - some didn’t- I enjoyed your plant tour.
Oh, to have a gardening partner! You guys are a great team & have created a beautiful yard. Thanks for this tour! Edit: I found a bulb laying out in an abandoned yard, appeared to be an Amaryllis so I put it in a pot. It seems to be a dwarf flowering orange but the stems are flat, not round. I've never seen anything like it. Anybody know anything about such?
Could it be a gladiolus? I think they’re a corm not a bulb(not sure, sorry). My mom has some and the stems look very flat. They come in a array of colors. Also some Lily, certain orchids too will look flat stemmed. Let me know if this helps. I’ll actually talk to my mom and ask her for you because she knows bulbs better than I do.
That didn’t take long, my mom said to tell you could be iris, blue flag iris(wetland iris), or gladiolus. She said the iris isn’t a bulb, looks more like a carrot but if the root is small it could look like a bulb. Hope this helps. Let us know if you figure it out.
I agree, white flowers just pop against the background. I planted little lime hydrangeas to have that pop of white but it stays lime green (😡😡 Wish they sold the white wedding in France but not available. Limelight too big for the space.
I would love a video on vining plants for chain link fences. I love the idea of hiding our fence (there when we moved in and unlikely to afford replacing lol), but I'm worried about keeping it under control, particularly where it touches the house.
By the chain link fence and the blue hosta… What is that in your neighbors yard for “grass” looks like tiny tractor seats lol I have some of those seems to grow where it’s wet… how do u make them spread like that I love it! Looking for grass alternatives!!! Thanks all looking very pretty … 🤍🤍🤍☀️☀️☀️
I ordered a shade grab bag and received a hosta marked Hans but it has no variegation. I read it is a product of Blue Mammoth (a couple sports down the line) and I’m wondering if I got a piece that reverted. I’m not mad- it’s still one of my favorites with its giant blue leaves.
Jim, Could just be the play of light, but your Gray Ghost Illicium looks to have a solid green stem @ the bottom (toward the camera). I know, should it be reverting back to green, you'll want to prune off that stem.
What would you suggest for planting to divide neighboring yards without offending the other neighbors it is hard to locate our border line and now our neighbor has begun to cut over into our yard by 2 feet when clearly we have nice grass and they have yard full of weeds and now the weeds are trailing into our yard.
I personally would not be worried about offending my neighbor that's not worried about offending me. Unfortunately if you don't address it they'll keep encroaching on your space. I speak from experience. People can be quite bold to the point of inconsiderate if allowed. A living fence may not be good enough, and you might want to think about fence options instead. Considering they aren't respecting your property line already they probably won't respect the newly planted trees either. Just something to think about. Sorry your going through this, I know it's not fun and a little awkward. And that's the worst. You should never feel awkward in your own space as it's supposed to be your sanctuary. Best wishes and good luck.
Hi Jim from Zone 6 Just wondering if there's a blue conifer for this area that stays in a mature height of 15 ft or so? Thank you now and all your videos
Regarding your and Steph’s new Camellia Japonica please please let me know I’d love to purchase that double pink flower. My entire backyard has transformed bc of your inspiration and my theme is Serene Pink. Thank you! Irma New Albany, IN 6b

Kevin, I cannot agree with you more. There really is a void since they removed the gardening shows.
The only thing I disagree with-Jim is way better than anything on HGTV!
@@mizsparkie5479 agreed
It’s here! It’s here!! I’m getting snacks ready and sitting back on the couch to watch this!
Thanks Jim, as always everything is looking gorgeous! I hope the redbud makes it, there is nothing more heartbreaking than losing an old tree in the garden. Cant wait to see part 2!
The drone footage really shows how large and beautiful your garden is 🌼🌼🌼
Love the overhead drone shots, gives a great perspective. Garden is looking great
Yeah! Thanks for doing this series❤
I love your channel! Thank you for posting the names of your plants, it's so helpful with so many names to learn, to many of us new gardeners.😆👍
I love the drone shots of the garden, the circular patio and walkways! You can't see all that just looking at the garden at eye level. It is absolutely gorgeous!!🌷
❤hello Mr Jim Putnam and Stephany. Happy gardening everyone. Have fun summer ☀️.
Ahh. This series was worth waiting for! Absolutely in awe of how fast this garden has filled in … but…
Please slow DOWN next time so we can savor the tour! 😂😂😂
Love the tour. Keep them coming! Thank you
Thanks Jim and Stephany. 🌸💚🙃
Awesome to see everything blooming and coming together..thanks for inviting us along
Enjoying the detailed tour.

These tours are the best and always most appreciated. I screen shot so many things for future reference. Thank you!

Loved this episode. Actually, I love all your videos.
Great home garden tour! I find it helpful to revisit many of these plants that I could in my landscape plan and also share with my neighbors.
Awesome!
Okay #1 your neighbors dog is the bestest boy and we must protect them with our lives

Great diverse collection of plants!
Your impatience are beautiful!!!💙
Thank you for sharing your garden! I am learning so much about other plants that I will be adding to my garden! I really enjoy watching your channel!!
Thank you for the in depth video!
Great video! It is great to see all of the screening border plants together. Really helpful for planning different areas! Thank you!

Looks fantastic thanks for sharing your journey. I lost both my redbuds. Now it’s a hummingbird bath holder and a clematis trellis 😝🤷♀️
My grey ghost did the same thing! Looks amazing now

Can't wait to watch this one❤
Yay! I’m so inspired 🌷
I’m in zone 6a so I don’t think Loropetulum would be happy with me. But it really is such an eye catching beauty!!!
Thanks, that was awesome 🤩 looking forward to more.
9:27 to about 12:00 what is that little dark green plant in the planter with the deep veins? (lower right hand side) I LOVE that foliage!
you are so inspirational. Thanks for doing these videos. (UK)
This is a great series! Thank you for the info and help with the sun or shade needed. 👍
I garden in 7 b also- upstate SC- I find my in ground lantana didn’t come back - also two Japanese maples- I miss plants all the time- worst freeze ever for my plants-many of my fifty hydrangeas are full of sticks- some bloomed - some didn’t- I enjoyed your plant tour.

I wish some of these plants were just a little more hardy .... 6b by lake erie can be tricky😂😂😂
Looks wonderful. Does the ground ivy your neighbor has encroach on you….of course it does. My nemesis plant😬
By the chain link fence and the blue hosta… What is that in your neighbors yard for “grass” looks like tiny tractor seats lol I have some of those seems to grow where it’s wet… how do u make them spread like that I love it! Looking for grass alternatives!!! Thanks all looking very pretty … 🤍🤍🤍☀️☀️☀️
It’s ground Ivy also known as Creeping Charlie. A nightmare to control. It will swallow a flower bed in a few weeks if not checked.
I know you do q and a on Sunday but I just bought african rose hibiscus now where and how to plant thanks
I ordered a shade grab bag and received a hosta marked Hans but it has no variegation. I read it is a product of Blue Mammoth (a couple sports down the line) and I’m wondering if I got a piece that reverted. I’m not mad- it’s still one of my favorites with its giant blue leaves.
Jim,
Could just be the play of light, but your Gray Ghost Illicium looks to have a solid green stem @ the bottom (toward the camera). I know, should it be reverting back to green, you'll want to prune off that stem.
I noticed the Creeping Charlie weed coming from your neighbor’s lawn. How do you manage that?
What would you suggest for planting to divide neighboring yards without offending the other neighbors it is hard to locate our border line and now our neighbor has begun to cut over into our yard by 2 feet when clearly we have nice grass and they have yard full of weeds and now the weeds are trailing into our yard.
I would reccomend a survey.
I personally would not be worried about offending my neighbor that's not worried about offending me. Unfortunately if you don't address it they'll keep encroaching on your space. I speak from experience. People can be quite bold to the point of inconsiderate if allowed.
