    You garden just like I used to, when I had my house and big perennial beds. And like you, I am a visual person and had to place the plants and stand back. This brings me back! And we don’t mind the background noise. Your hubby is working hard on the patio area :) the results will be spectacular.

    Great video !! I am such a visual person too. So it was great to see how you worked in the garden. From moving plants , divide them , getting rid of some. And the best part your process on adding new plants to the garden. I also love seeing Jerry working on the patio. Can’t wait to see the finish space.

    I’m always so envious of other gardeners (like sweet Laura of Garden Answer) when they start digging to plant and it goes sooo easy in that soft dirt. Glad to see it’s not just me that sometimes has a fight on my hands with this southern dirt and tree roots! I’m so happy for you and Jerry on all the progress with the hardscape in the patio area. It will be a glorious venue for evening quiet time. I really enjoyed this piddling video. We piddle here in Georgia too!

    LOVE this video! Your revitalized bed will be amazing. Lots of work but worth it. Your patio looks amazing! Kudos to Jerry and his hard work on that. And I have to say, Jackson learned more in helping you put the arbor together than any of his classmates learned this weekend, or that's my guess. Keep up the good parenting Jenny! Those skills will carry him through life. I only wish my knees worked as well as yours do. Watching you jump on a shovel brings back memories. Useful tip (?) I use a serrated (bread) knife when dividing plants, especially caladiums. Works like a charm. Thanks again Jenny, for allowing us to watch the process. ❤

    I transplanted a rhubarb today. I didn't know about the massive roots, they were as big as carrots. Made it easy to distinguish the weeds firmly embedded among the twisted rhubarb roots.
    I put lots of compost in the hole and Bio-tone, of course. I'm already thinking of recipes. I caught a whiff when I broke off a stem.
    There's something satisfying about pulling weeds...while they're small.

    Oh Jenny love watching you plant and listening to your train of thought, I do the same out loud and by myself : ) Hey, I noticed a round indentation in your jeans pocket, almost looks like a skoal can or a tape measure, care to share what it might be from? Nah, don't. I just enjoy watching you at work, a kindred spirit. Thanks for putting in these videos on your "days off."
