Hello Everyone!

It seems to me that most gardens (at least here in the US) tend to follow a pattern. I see it across social media as well. Small plants in the front and tall in the back. Is this the best way?
In today’s video I’ll share several different ideas for designing your border to help your space match your space, your personality, and your style of garden.

Hope you find this video helpful. If you do, please give it a thumb’s up, and consider subscribing 🙂

With love,

  1. Your passion for gardening is so obvious. It’s wonderful. I’d love to see a video on successive planting and having flowers all year.

  2. Hi yes please do video on succession planting. Would love it. I live in the state of Maine and struggle with this as we gave such a short season

  3. It is interesting that you mention Monty Don and Carol Klein, two British gardeners. Britain is, as a country, leaps and bounds ahead of the US in the terms of gardening… by holding to tradition. Here in the US, we've been conditioned to think that the front yard should be 95% turf with maybe a few shrubs or rose bushes near the house. The back yard should be more turf with the garden being around the perimeter, so the entire garden should be visible from the back deck. This isn't a blanket statement, the youtubes are full of videos of American gardeners who have yards full of garden and paths. But if we drive through the suburbs that cover so much of developed US, most of them will be as described, because Scotts has long been selling THAT as the ideal for decades.

  4. a fuzzy veil of ethereal inflorescence!!! Wow… your mind is so immersed in a garden…. who can describe it like that? I could listen to you talk about a garden all day. It's truly trans formative. What a gift.

  5. Hi Anna- I didn't catch that name of that pretty airy tall plant with the purple flowers do you know if it is fragrant? So pretty( dainty purple flowers). Thank you and great ideas!!!

  6. Love this video! ❤Really love the garden pictures. Makes me look forward to spring🌷With that said. HELP!!! 😫LOL Do you have any ideas for planting in gardens that lack much sunlight and the ground is so full of roots from an old tree in front of my house. I already injured 🩼🤕myself trying to get through the thick roots and many of my plant don’t seem to thrive in this area. My home is a Tudor style home and I would really like to give it a whimsical garden with a very calming zen entrance. Any ideas? Also, do you have indoor plants? 🪴 I struggle with my house plants in the winter and would welcome any hacks or ideas to make them happy. Always a pleasure seeing your new videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Your the best 👍

  7. I would like to see a video on succession planting for flowers. My largest gardening space is in my back yard and raises up from grass to an iron fence (gradual rise for 20'). Also, being north of Atlanta we have a lot of rain and red clay, so I have to be careful to put plants at the bottom that can take wetter soil (even though I amend my soil constantly!)

  8. I absolutely love your channel. The words you use to describe the gardens or the flowers make me feel and smell your garden. I just love the passion you have for your gardens

  9. Me encanta tu canal, gracias por tus consejos. Seria muy interesante un vídeo sobre plantas sucesivas que fueran resistentes a las heladas i a la sequia en verano. Te escribo desde Barcelona en España.
