- Now that May has arrived we need to begin assessing our spring garden to see how all of our plants weathered winter. After dramatically trimming back our Forsythia bushes, they are looking full and healthy along with hundreds of daffodil blossoms put on a magnificent spring exhibit for all of our neighbors. The tulips are popping and even a few dandelions are going to be allowed to attract pollinators but removed before they go to seed. Virginia Bluebells, Tree Peonies and Giant Bleeding Hearts will be in full bloom within a week or two. Many trees are budding and bushes turning green after surviving the sun, wind, rain and snow. Five of our large goldfish survived in the upper section of the waterfall along with a cute resident Bullfrog and most recently, George and Martha Mallard ducks took up residence in our small backyard pond. All in all, the garden is looking very healthy and we are pleased to assess and examine all the wonderful plants, trees and bushes that grace our gardens.
I am still in awe of your rebuilt water feature. It is beautiful. I hope it continues to bring you much joy, peace, and relaxation.
You are such a wonderful friend. Happy Spring...finally! Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com

I adore dandelions. I accuse myself.
They are amazing pollinator plants. Our neighbor lets them grow everywhere while we try to keep them under control before they go to seed. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com

Hello friends, good to see you both. Rain finally stopped here today. Unusualy cold. Hope all plants come up. Peonies are tall and have a lot of buds. Will start some work tomorrow. Has a lot of cleaning, mulching, and planting. Have two colors of Helibors. Green and Burgundy flowers. Enjoy gardening. Sorry I took all my dandelion out. I hate them. Our bird feeders are out. The second set will be fixed tomorrow. Lot of birds in our yard. Have a wonderful season. Song birds sing for me when I request them. Talk to you soon. Bye.
Hi pulikutty, sounds like your garden is coming to life again big time. We feel if you have lots of flowers and flowering trees in your yard you can take out those dandelions when you see them and save yourself future work from all the new ones that will appear if you don't do it now. :) Time management. :)
Happy Happy Spring Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com
Hi ! 💛🙋🏻♀️
It's great to be out and about assessing our spring garden. Always a pleasure to see what made it through winter. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com
@@WisconsinGarden I was happy to see the new grapes I had to move survived as the winery lost 90-95% of buds. It’s been a lazy rainy day and hope we don’t get frost north of you tonight. Fingers crossed. I shoved as much as I could in the lil greenhouse, but I didn’t cover plants in ground already. My husband always has to say, should have waited until Memorial Day. Sigh, hope he’s wrong. We’ve had 90s already and above 70 for the most part-Who knew?
Hey guys! So glad to see a new video! Lynn, I finally think I got your liatris to grow and spread! Deanna
Hi Deanna, so glad to hear it is finally doing well. Now that it's growing, you will have a new supply of seeds this fall to plant even more. :) Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com
We have a couple Alberta Spruces. They dont like the sand or winter here in WI. What I did last year was a game changer for them as I wrapped one layer of burlap around them and made sure they were watered well before freezing as usual. This year we uncovered them and the boxwood and they are beautiful. No dried up burnt limbs.
Wow, I didn’t know the water feature was that deep. It’s beautiful and they are a bit of work in cold country. Surprised the fish lived. One concern is I hope you don’t have any curious tots in the area. For me I would have to secure the area.
I had the worst seed starting venture this year and I will be baking my soil on the grill before it enters the house from now on. I used an open bag of soil and had the worst time with gnats and aphids. Never again. I’ve never had either before and don’t have aphids outside either. I wasn’t sure if the peppers could take much more. I tried spraying soap water and Neem oil for aphids and all I got was wet. I found several real lady bugs that helped quite a bit, but they hitched a ride to the greenhouse. At the last week of them being indoors I found an OMRI approved oil at Menards and the problem was solved-no more aphids! Hallelujah!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. I surely didn’t want them in the greenhouse. The gnats I couldn’t solve. Sticky traps, peroxide drench, drying them out, Mosquito Bits-it was a losing battle. Once outside they must have flew off or something attacked them.
Things look great! Keep up the good work.
Watering well and wrapping burlap helps prevent sun and wind burn. Glad to hear the boxwoods also look great. Can't blame you when it come to bringing in plants over the winter or using potting soil that harbors gnats and aphids. I end up using a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol over and under each leaf once the invasion starts. I also add yellow sticky shapes to capture them as well. When the top of any soil turns white or sour, I scoop it off and add new layer of potting soil. As for tots, none are allowed without constant parent supervision. Disclaimer entrance signs on both driveway entrances.
Today we are outside prepping the raised beds for planting this week. So far, everything is looking good for this year. Knock on wood and on Richard's head if he's standing nearby. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing - Lynn & Richard - www.WisconsinGarden.com
Lynn yah need some hollyhocks in that garden...a nice big patch!
Hi Tim, I tried hollyhocks several years ago and they didn't seem to like our garden. Rick invites you to come and make us a nice big patch. Any time. Thanks for your continued support and comments. Love hearing from you. Lynn & Richard
@@WisconsinGarden LOL
Hello Lynn & Richard 💕. So happy to see you & your garden tour in Spring! Our weather is still cool (near Niagara Falls Canada). I cleaned up my backyard gardens, but haven’t gotten to my front ones due to rain (sadly). So odd weather this year, maybe it’ll warm up soon (one can hope). Love Gilly
Hi missygilly, we are at the mercy of the weather, but our hopes are like yours, warmer, pleasant spring days and nights. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com
Yeah I did something similar.... Stress the thistle out. Don't let them flower. It took 5 yrs to smother them out. They do come but weaker and weaker every year
Hi aprilrain. So good to know we can control them somewhat, over time. Persistence - thistle or us Thank you for sharing this , it gives us hope. Happy Spring Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing. Lynn & Richard www.WisconsinGarden.com
Looking forward to another growing season with you. Please don’t send anymore of your off season weather across the lake because I am so far behind this year due to the weather. Michigan seems a bit confused as to where we are in the calendar year but I guess we take the days as they come. Just teasing you as I know you are struggling in Wisconsin too. I have been looking for Montucks for 2 years but no luck. Seems everyone has been in a fever pitch to get their hands on them but maybe this will be my year. Happy gardening!!!:):):)
Unfortunately, we have NO control over the weather or which way the wind blows. We get ours from Minnesota & Canada, so we have them to thank as well. Also teasing. So much for global warming. We too are very surprise to hear how difficult Montauk Dasies are to find around the country. We wish everyone lived nearby and propagate their own. Just keep asking and checking with your local garden center or nursery. Have a great prolific garden. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing.

This weather has been weird for sure as I’m just north of them and we had rain in January and March weather in April. Going from 90s to 6” of snow is bad. Vineyard lost 90-95% of grape buds.
Hello Lynn, just found your videos and enjoying them very much. I live in a small apartment, have a small indoor garden of houseplants, and I'm finally trying to get into growing a few fruits and vegetables and want to use more natural fertilizers like Epsom salts, coffee grounds, egg shells etc. I loved your dry milk tip in one of your other videos. I've been able to grow small lemon trees for about 3 years but they never got past about two feet. The same with Avocado plants.
Late this Spring, I tried my hand at germinating tomato and kiwi seeds, and an avocado seed on paper towels. So far the tomato, kiwi and Avocado seeds germinated, so I transferred them to soil. Today I sowed strawberry seeds and hoping they sprout because I love strawberries.
I have question.... two months ago, I was able to root several store bought kale leaves and planted them in soil. I fed them Dr. Earth's liquid fertilizer along with Epsom salts and egg shells. Two weeks ago, they started flowering or what I learned as "bolting." Does this mean that the kale leaves aren't any good now? Should I cut the flower stems? Sorry for the long message.
Welcome Aida, sounds like you are a creative gardener and enjoy experimenting like we do. I can't help myself when it comes to avocados and have 6 rooting on my kitchen sink now.
Never tried kale leaves, but sounds interesting. If the leaves are not leathery or discolored, give them a try to see how they taste. I think I would cut the flower stems off. Let us know. Love hearing results.

@@WisconsinGarden Good morning and thank you so much for your in input Lynn. I will cut the stems off and see how it goes from there.🤗🙏🏼🙏🏼
Glad to see you and hubby❤ I have a lot of grass lol. Looking forward to your videos . I was missing you watched a few oldies. What was the name of the small heart shaped cherry tomato. I bought seeds last year and wasted the seeds put them in late. ❤ Forgot the name.
TomatoBerry is the name of those red delicious bite-size tomatoes. We tried the yellow version but the red are still the sweetest. We never grew them from seed until this spring and are anxious to see if this hybrid will be the same. Thanks again for watching, caring and sharing. Keep The Love Growing.

OK whats with the secrets??...What's this new website people are talking about?
Hi Tim. Rick is pondering over making a new website, but hasn't come to any conclusions yet. We will definitely keep you posted on any secrets. Love ya,
Thanks for caring. Lynn & Richard - www.WisconsinGarden.com
