  1. Hi Linda. I had to grab a wine to enjoy with your video! Love all the information you provide. And as you know you will love being a grandma. I am getting number 9 and 10 in July!

  2. Wrapped Palazzo capris. Totally awestruck by the cool outfit of the day! Pirate in grunge fashion! Oh, the film scores that come to mind 🎶
    Cool diagnosis, and instructions. I have David Austin's, and hope they continue to look so sweet.
    Love all the frames, Stewart! I enjoy Mozart, and Zimmer in D minor, to name a few 🌱🪻🩷

  3. Great inforamtion Linda and Stewart. Thank you for the screen shot and the photos. I grabbed the screenshots and added them to my Garden Journal I keep in OneNote. I have not had this scare myself, but it is always good to keep the information for those "just in case" moments. Your gardens are beautiful as always.

  4. Psst…..tapping Linda on the shoulder and whispering in her ear…..your wrap around pants are coming a bit unwrapped when you are sitting on your garden stool🫣 Not to worry nothing too much showed…just a lady to lady “heads up”😊

  5. Hi Linda💚Hi Stewart 💚…Thank you that was very informational…I don’t have experience with rose rosette but I’m very aware now to keep a look out for it…The garden looks beautiful💚…

  6. My garden issues every single year is watching out for snakes here in middle GA. I know they are good for keeping rodents at bay but I swear I have nearly killed myself trying to get away when I see one. They frighten me so. I can deal with anything else but not snakes. (I’m visiting Ireland as we speak & they supposedly don’t have them…hmmmm, maybe I should consider moving here!😂)

  7. I just had to take out one of my David Austin roses because of Rose Rosette disease. I consulted one of my plant apps and it came back saying it was witch's broom and that the rose looked sick. It had the excessive thorniness in areas. It is very disappointing. I just hope it doesn't spread to any of my other roses. I'm trying to be careful. Thank you for your information and tips on the disease.

  8. I have the Dewalt brand of power tools (actually all my contractor hubs tools are Dewalt) – pruners, blower, drills with augers… indispensable! My rose gloves help when I prune other types of shrubs as well because the thorns are not the only part that pruning shrubs does to tear up my skin.

  9. Love your inspirational and informative channel. Do you have a link to the exact garden stool you are sitting on in this video? I have a tired back and I love to garden and that looks like a helpful item. Thsnks

  10. I hard pruned my Hydrangeas (in pots, blooms on new wood) and should have seen blooms developing by now. Nothing on either one….did I screw up?!!

  11. I live in the Arlington,Tx area in zone 8b and I’ve had the same reaction from some of my roses. I’ve started to put pruning sealer on all the cuts after I prune every time now. I’m so paranoid about this ! 🫣🙏😅

  12. If I can recommend something. I find that it's very helpful to buy one bottle of rubbing alcohol with a spray nozzle for disinfecting tools. Then I reuse that spray nozzle on future bottles of alcohol. Way easier and handier.

  13. Linda, you taught me something today! Unfortunately, (two of my four) second year roses that I have meticulously trained over arbors in my garden, have the dreaded rose rosette disease 😢
    I planted these New Dawn climbing roses last April, and somehow, they contracted the virus. After watching your video and some of my own research, I came home and dug them both up and carefully removed and discarded the debris. I am devastated, as they were beautiful this spring. I am wondering what you would do now, if you were me. I am hesitant to plant a new rose back there as I don’t want them to contract the virus. But I really designed my garden around having roses across the arches. Just curious for your input. God bless Mark.

  14. Hi Linda, I think I have this on my rose, what app do you use to identify this, most apps I checked wanted to charge up to 7.00 a month. Too high for me. Thanks so much for all you do!

  15. What is the name of the red stool you sit on while working in the garden. I believe it had a green cloth tool holder that hung off of the stool.
    I am in OKC and enjoy watching your videos. Glad I found your channel.

  16. Hi Linda! I learn so much from your show. I was wondering if you have ever grown poppies? My poppy foliage always looks a bit yellow. I am wondering if I need to feed them or if they are getting too much water. What has been your experience with them in the past? Zone 8a, Zebulon NC

  17. Hey Linda … happy summer 😊
    It’s autumn here in Australia. I am having a big renovation done starting next week so winter and some of spring I won’t be gardening this year. I will be watching you and your garden though ☺️🙏🏼🍷

  18. The worx pruner is amazing. I use it all the time. U can one handed prune so u can reach much higher in trees. Also great because I have thumb arthritis
