If I was ever asked " where in the world would you go if you could only have one trip"....it would be right there with a cuppa tea in your circle & just sit & take it all in. It truly is an amazing place. 💜😘🌻 🌒🌕🌘
I think you are right I have wished for red Twig Dogwood and raspberries and they have appeared out of nowhere in my yard. I was thinking the other day that those who love Mother Earth will receive abundant love back from her. I believe you have received her gifts.
I am waiting to hear Monty Don say 'plant like your life depends upon it because it does'! I love the comment 'this stuff' I have got loads of plants called 'this stuff' in my garden! Senior moments! Goddess Bless to you and Jack x
I am amazed at how beautiful your land is. I am also jealous but so grateful that you share it all. It has made my day so much happier. I hope we can have our own little place one day and we can make it as wonderful as yours!
You must have been the most amazing mother. "Don't stake the trees. They'll grow up stronger. Their roots will go deeper." That certainly works with children. And when the pine tree blew over, your knew that its "differentness" would one day become its wind-resistance. That also works with children. And the playfulness with shaking out the pollen. Yes, your children were lucky to have been raised by you.
I just had to mention I'm using your videos to learn how to watercolor! My daughter gave me a 70 page mixed media notebook. So I sit with your videos, pause when I need to, & am cataloguing your gorgeous plants...the paper is really too thin for water, but I have half a notebook of curly pages I am so proud of! So many leaves & flowers I have never seen before...& so many, so familiar. When I'm finished with my practice, I will paint you a beautiful sampler of my favorites as thanks to you...
Today's video was amazing!! I love the little secret places you showed us that we don't often get to see. That copper beech tree took on a whimsical, curly and protected shape. Having to defend herself against the strong wind. Boadicea is a lovely tree. ❤🌳
A lovely, uplifting tour Colette! I came in for a rest break after working in my fairy wood today and lo and behold I find a new video to watch! It re-energized me, along with a coffee and some trail mix, to venture back to the wood to probably work until dark because once I get going it's almost impossible to stop! I just love being out in nature! Blessings to you, Jack, and greetings to your newly planted oak tree! It did indeed look very happy!! 😊🌳🍃💕
For your little Rododendron...One of the easiest ways to make soil more acidic is to add sphagnum peat. Simply add an inch or two of peat to the topsoil in and around plants, or during planting. For another quick fix, water plants several times with a solution of 2 tablespoons vinegar to a gallon of water. 🍀
omg the ferns! i absolutely love ferns, i love that they spring up where you least expect them and watching them unfurl, just magical. When i first moved to where i am, 20 yrs ago, i found this old bag of builders sand outside waiting to be disposed of, but when i looked closely, i saw a tiny finger of fern growing out of the sand, i have been nurturing that little fern ever since and now has pride of place outside my front door. thank you for sharing your walk colette. j x
What a great treat. Loved every bit of it ..... It was amazing to see these parts of the garden. Every single inch is so beautiful and so pure like the rest of the areas ... one cannot be but happy being around (physically or virtually) this sanctuary. 💚💚💚
There is something so satisfying about walking around ones own wooded property. We never get tired of it. Its almost magical at times. There is so much life within it. This spring we seem to be even more blessed with more nesting birds and other wildlife. When we first acquired the property it seemed as if it did not have nearly the life that it does now. It could be just that we have been accepted as part of their lives and they are coming out into the open in front of us since we are not perceived as a threat. We have wild turkeys showing off in our woods now. Its a spectacular sight as they compete for mates. We recently had 4 males all fanning at the same time trying to impress one female. We never get tired of natures theater. There is a new show every day 😊. Thank you for yet another lovely walk. 💕. I think Mother Nature has cast a spell on your mower. LOL!!
Enchanted with the less trodden trip through Bealtaine Cottage today. Fun to see the less familiar trees and the seldom seen steel path down to the carry wood. What lovely flowers on the hawthorn. Must channel a few of those in my garden. Blessings, a hundred and more to match each tree, shrub and flower. Blessings.
You are amazing. When I think about all the hours of work you have done, I am astonished. You have a paradise on Earth . I believe I Jack enjoys it as much as you.
So,I had a thought.You and Jack,go on your walks to all kinds of places.You come home and make tea,Jack however,runs around Bealtaine,shaking his coat,and all these little fern spores float all over and plant themselves,hahaha Donna
I’ve been so frustrated with gas powered tools that won’t start... so... I’ve switched to battery powered weed trimmer and chain saw... so nice to just pick it up and use it without any fuss... and no noise. Very nice.
Dear Colette , thank you for the wonderful walk . The dreamy places in your woodland garden are fantastic . The ferns are beautiful , they have something of lightness . I also have many in my garden . Today I will plant 🌱 some flowers 🌸. Best regards and many hugs 🤗 for you and Mr. Jack from Conny Braun and cat Felix from Germany . 🌍🤗🌳🌲🌺🐝🌸🌞❤️❤️😺🌎 . Peace for the world . 🌍🌎
Hello Colette lovely walk as always. I have just taken another four big bags of things to the charity shop again and picked up a very pretty bowl for £1.00 . The charity shops hear are always busy which is great news. Take care. Love to you and Jack from Devon.
That was a lovely walk! Hawthorn is a great heart tonic - for both the organ and the chakra. I must see about planting some currants - some US states don’t allow, but Kentucky does. Have a beautiful day!
The luminous flowers .. wonderful.. I see this all the time and it takes my breath away.. I try to capture this in my paintings , never quite manage it.. ( so far 🤞).. To see it here in your clip was just wonderful.. thank you .. nature’s pure joy 💫
Collect pine needles and oak leaves, and put them around the base of your rhododendron. It will help acidify the soil. Boy, I sure can relate to that poor little oak being stuck in a tin can for 15 years. You should see my tiny apartment.
How do you make all those arches With I'm assuming trees or some kind of large shrub? I would like to make some of these myself but have no idea What plant material to use and how to go about it
"This stuff," happens to be Ground Elder!

Almost looks like an orchid flower. Lovely.

For another quick fix, water plants several times with a solution of 2 tablespoons vinegar to a gallon of water. 🍀
You could also put citrus peels and pulp or pine needles for added acidity.
Just what I needed this evening. A lovely walk in the woods.

Ferns! I love ferns and yours are lovely.
When the lawn mower quits, you can spend more time with Jack!💕
Your joy is contagious. It makes me happy! It's all so beautiful, lush, magical, and simply heavenly at Bealtaine....Blessings to you and Jack. 😊💕
I know what you mean by wishing for things. I wished for goldenrods and they seeded themselves! Mother nature gives the best gifts :)
Yep, Jack was thinking about it. It's his great passion, after you, of course. :) ... what a lovely wander, to parts that we seldom get to see. :)
Beautiful. That Copper Beach is incredible.

The pine trees are beautiful
Love ferns bought one only but have an abundance of natural gifted ferns which are greatly enjoyed on my north facing tiny backyard
Your videos are so relaxing
Thank you Colette for yet another beautiful dander around your tranquil and peaceful garden . Blessings to you and Jack xxxx
Another beautiful video. I also have a young oak tree growing in my garden and another tiny one in a pot.

Ireland is the green island for a reason nitrogen in piles of rain wow lovely

Thanks, Colette. I’m really enjoying your channel. I started watching because it was mentioned on The Last Homely House
Beautiful🐦🐦🐦🐣🐣🌼🌼🌾

Rinse the spark plug in petrol sometimes it works, =-)
Oh I have been having lawnmower problems today too. An ongoing saga with you tubing and not the right tools for repair
🎋 Lovely
Blessings to you XXX
Hawthorn...the flowers and leaves were eaten, first fresh food of the year...Bread and Cheese.
How do you make all those arches With I'm assuming trees or some kind of large shrub? I would like to make some of these myself but have no idea What plant material to use and how to go about it
How did you go about making your arches From live plants?
Your rhododendrons have evolved
😍🤗🤗
