I just ❤watching you Mr John Lord. You aren’t afraid to tackle anything in the garden… whether it’s a small or big job. You just get it done. 😂🌿

[@maxthecat14]

Yay, you're back! All is right with the world again.

[@sharonrobillard5163]

Great to see you back in the garden … I really appreciate your wealth of knowledge about plants and trees! Thanks so much for sharing your experience.Have a great day 🌲

[@llengsuch3426]

Another great video from the Secret Garden!
That Acer palmatum ‘Bi Ho’ looks smashing - the little one you planted and the larger one that was moved. I'm going to look into getting one for my own little Welsh garden.

[@CaroleTilleyGSU]

Your eye has 2000 parts, probably as may trees as in your garden: eye protection is important, and gloves , protection gear as with any industry. Love your show and your knowledge.❤

[@maryodoherty4789]

Just want to acknowledge great cameraman. You beautifully capture John's pace, always a relaxed flow. A great team!

[@rossmcleod7983]

Good to see the winter bones of your garden John and how you are not afraid to edit. Here in Melbourne it’s been subtropical and the growth has been overwhelming. Looking forward to some winter respite.

[@marjoleincrevels9120]

Re bamboo control with pole chain saw 💕💕💕

[@gracepeterson7483]

I love that the winds have names now. We don't do that here in Oregon but if we did I would call our recent ice storm "Persefoni". This Greek name means “bringer of death.” It doesn't get closer to destruction than this.

[@diannamueller9332]

Waving from Oregon! Thank you..

[@gracepeterson7483]

I'm also from Oregon. We love John!

[@brendahayes3365]

Yah! You’re back… holiday in Hawaii?? Love your spirit & humor… …’eye damage doesn’t bother me - it’s the line up in queue for 6 hours that does!!’😂😂 Looks like we’re all in the same boat 🤷🏻‍♀️
Thanks John, great video.

Thanks John! The Lazy Man’s way is to pay someone else to do it 😂

[@Cavalier7dar]

Great 2 see you back x

[@sydneygardener540]

You could fart here in Australia and a eucalyptus branch would fall off. It would not be the first time a falling branch has killed some picnicker or camper. There well know for it here😊

[@christopherhills1609]

Good to see you again John…great fun as always too

I needed a dose of John Lord today! Must be mad…lol😂

[@Cavalier7dar]

My black birds in my garden have loved mahonia berries

[@joanp105]

When you cut down an established tree, do you dig out the roots? If no, how are you able to plant ie. A Rhododendron, directly next to the stump?

[@johnlordssecretgarden]

It was a conifer so the stump will not regrow and it will just rot away over time. I dug a big enough hole so nutritional depletion which often occurs at the early stages of decomposition shouldn’t be a problem.

[@michaelforrest4995]

I want to see the directors cut :)

[@elizabethlake6986]

John Lord you're a rascal but a loveable one fpr sure, long may you reign!

[@unojayc]

I have that tree chain saw, electric, and have yet to use it. But I will eventually. Any advice?..

[@dylan8285]

Do as I say not as I do 😂 I tell people that all the time

[@pamelaspooner7183]

I’m surprised your soil looks so dry.

[@digsowgrow]

Bi-Ho (or Bi-Hou) isnt a great acer - very prone to pseudonomas and hates wet feet so i think will struggle in your heavy soil.
