You had me with "standy-upy"
I live near Victoria British Columbia and I've just watched your first video on crocosmia. I have watched many gardening videos. I really appreciate your commentary and delivery. Your appealing accent, your narratives, and bits of information are unique and informative. The hangy downy and the standy uppy scientific notation is refreshing and direct. Thank you John. I have subscribed. Please don't change your ways. ..even the way you talk about different yellows and colour combinations is briliant. God bless the dandelion puffs because hopefully you'll be gardening for a long while yet. Again, thank you from Victoria BC. I'm about to go out and plant some fennel.
Why can I only like your videos once each!?! There should definately be a superlike.
He puts his excitement into his videos could watch him all day very informative I’m learning quite a lot love his videos great character
They are a brilliant plant. Indestructible and great ground cover. The Welsh word for it is Crib y Ceiliog or Cockerel’s Comb, because of the flowers obviously.
Beautiful South African Crocosmia’s. The yellow look wonderful with blue agapanthus. Red look lovely with white agapanthus both bloom at the same time.
Beautiful garden area. Thanks for sharing.
Love all the no nonsense videos. So much I watch them over and over. Thanks
Good, interesting video. But I don't think he needs the irritating background music. Why do they always insist on adding this?
He’s adorable..
Thank you John , very enjoyable to watch your garden videos , really giving us a good lifting spirit with the nature , oh , your sunshine personality too ;-))
I absolutely love crocosmia! I'm in Missouri and had never seen them until three years ago. Wonderful video!
I'm amazed how well its adapting to the climate there...Here in South Africa we dont care much for Northern Hemisphere plants... Crocosmias are amazing
Hangy downy,, stand uppy,, sticky outy.,, strange how it's so easy to understand 🤣🤣wouldn't hear that on gardeners world
Question. When you have a big clump with bulbs stacked 3-5 on one stalk. Should you
a) split all the bulbs off, keep them and plant in Spring
b) just split and replant further appart, with the corms as they are
c) Split and split off corms leaving the last one and replant, keeping the rest for replanting in Spring.
I've mitigated some risk by planting about 6 stalks (already cut down from this end of season) in one area.
I've split off less than a third of the existing stalks and I've produced about 3-4 corms for each one, so going to store and plant somewhere next spring or give them away.
“Standy Uppy” 😂🤣 I Love It !
I bought a two half dead crocosmia plants here from a big box store, nobody was buying them here where I live in the U.S. so they were all dying. I never even heard of this plant until watching another UK gardener and was so happy to find it. I'm guessing that's why they were not being purchased, as not too many people are familiar with them here. One died anyway but the other lives on, so I'm so happy to have discovered this beautiful plant.
That Black Lace Elderberry is stunning, especially next to the pink blooms. I bought two this year to plant.
Hi my dear friend thanks so much for sharing your beautiful garden with us. It was so pretty pretty so many beautiful flowers all about watch from the beginning to the end.
He is standy uppy wonderful 🤗
Or a leany downy it's more a sticky outy, don't you love the Irish ❤️🏴
Thank you John. 👌💕
I have the “wild one”. Dug it from an old homesite, where it covered a quarter acre.
Wonderful video. Thank you
I think every garden should have at least a part for native important plants which support native insects.
very informative GT video GT GT plants thanks for your time 🐝🐞👍👍👍
Aww I just love your video's..so lovely and very inspiring 😊🌿🌾🌺🥀🌷
This guy is legit! These things will take over anywhere that there is good soil and light! After a few years you may find yourself hacking always at a clump with a pick axe! Unbelievable genre in general. What cultivation. For art, we are standing in the shoulders of the giants that developed this species! Brilliant descriptions of how to compose stuff and how to not hold back. A person who hasn't failed, hasn't lived :0)
I'm surprised to hear that. I've had difficulty just keeping them alive
@@olsonlr maybe soil?
@olsonlr We have crocosmia in our garden that we got from a clump given to us by my in-laws 22 years ago and they are still going strong. They come up each year without fail and spread too.
Hummingbird magnet
Kathy Macomber that's why I have them.
Great show. Just getting to Spring here in Nova Scotia
Dej'vu moment with your "Wild Crocosmia" warning. Were you in the movie, "Water World"? lol Great show.
Such informative videos, but please take off the music!
Love, standyupy, sticky out, leany outy
I just ordered a red (Lucifer) and an orange one.
ah man...I get nostalgic listening to you...I long for my childhood home sometimes ((we Newfoundlanders aren't much different from ye bunch)
There seems to be a lot of Irish in the Newfoundlander accent.
John Lord's Garden you bet...we have different dialects all over, different lingo influenced by Spanish, English, Scottish ,French, Aboriginal and of course Irish ...keep on keeping on! Great videos! Linda
btw I planted my crocosmia today in individual pots...can't wait for signs of life...by de lard tunderin geez...lol
Hello happy John :)
My crocosmia had smaller flowers last year. They didn't seem to do as well as usual.
I was hoping you were talking about crocodiles. \😜/ But these flowers are pretty cool too.
what type of hydrangea is that behind the crocosmia columbus? (around 6.00). Lovely upright habit and nice big globes of flowers
Hydrangea aborescens Incrediball
Weird Question but does Anybody know if cows can eat crocusmia
4.22 Look at that fennel how tall it has grown!
I have had difficulty moving crosomia Lucifer. Definitely not while green. At least here in Georgia
Is it Happy Hour at the Nursery?
Is that a taxus baccata fastigiata aurea behind you at 4.28?
Hunt Shoot Fish. Yes, it's an upright golden yew, a variety called 'David'.
thanks John - love the channel.
Hey there... are there pink or blue crosmias too? Are they growing in shade?
Only reds oranges and yellows
I’m sending you over to my mom so she can subscribe
I’d LIKE to buy YELLOW Cocrosmia.please give Mẹ some addresses.Thank You vẻy much.
Planted 5 Lucifer corms last year (Australia) nothing much happened; perhaps this year?
Just get rid of that irritating music and it would be perfect.
I wish he would stand still and stop fidgeting
I love his energy/passion/enthusiasm...and humor.
That's the charm of this channel. He is lovely to watch.
Debbie downer should be your user name not holly hocks. Hes great.
He is just being himself, he is genuine, love him.
Agreed! I love how real he is! However, I found the music distracting. It’s a bit too loud love his content!
Stop the irritating music!
This dude is on drugs...
I guess you never saw anybody who is enthusiastic about what they do and sharing their knowledge. Sorry for you.
Can I dead head the spent flowers to make them re bloom. .. do I remove just the flower or the seed pod too? Thanks
