After a long winter and a busy spring, the garden is finally starting to look the way I imagined it.
In this video, I’m planting annuals throughout the front yard and the Hydrangea Hideaway, adding more color and filling in some of the last empty spaces. I also plant two more Incrediball Storm Proof hydrangeas, sow zinnia and nasturtium seeds, and share a look at how the garden is coming together as we head into summer.
Along the way, you’ll see:
๐ฟ Incrediball Storm Proof Hydrangea
๐ฟ Annual flowers for sun and shade
๐ฟ Zinnia seeds
๐ฟ Nasturtium seeds
๐ฟ Hydrangea Hideaway updates
๐ฟ Front yard garden progress
๐ฟ Summer garden planting ideas
It’s always satisfying when the garden starts shifting from spring cleanup mode into summer color, and this week feels like a major turning point.
If you’re still planting, adding annuals, or looking for ideas to bring more color into your landscape, I hope you’ll find some inspiration here.

Looks wonderful!
Beautiful!
Looks Great!
Everything looks sooo good! I continue to be surprised at how your plants are bouncing back after the snow load this winter!
Beautiful ๐ป
Amazing how your hellscape plants survived the 20ft snow mountain!
Oh so pretty. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your day.
Corey "I have a lot more annuals than a normal person does"….define 'normal' ๐คฃ Normal is highly overrated!!! What great plants.
Looking forward to see how this evolves!

Looks beautiful Corey! Thanks for sharing!
You have such good soil. My soil is full of rocks.
10 days ago I said I was finished planting and that my garden was looking great…..then the garden said hold my drink, here's red lily beetles!!! Cut down the worst ones and sprayed the rest with BTK. They give the garden height and grow in all light conditions, it will be hard to find a substitute
Looks great, but looks like ya'll need some rain! Soil looks bone dry!
Oh, clever, planting the coleus pot to be sure it will be the right size for the plant.
Looks awesome Corey!!! It will be a colorful bonanzaโค. Liam will love it too. โค

Nerve in a million years would have imagined seeing sunflowers and daffodils growing at the same time, crazy weather this year!!!๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ love your planting combinations.
You have a wonderful home with garden! I have too taken away my incrediball hydrangeas and will replace them with flowerfull hydrangeas, I keep my fingers crossed ๐ค hopefully they will be much better here! We canโt buy storm proof hydrangea it has not arrived in Europe yet sad๐ข I like these kind of videos ๐ greetings from Sweden ๐ธ๐ช
Sloppy hell strip….Mulch??? clean edges??? Curb is dirty …sweep street! Porch way overdone ~ less ia more
No starter fertilizer for the roots?
What a smarty planting that big coleus the way you did!๐ you and Liam have such a fun colour filled spot, and the โ Hell Stripโ is looking great! Zone 3 many๐ช๐จ๐ฆโค๏ธ
Everything looks great !!
No fertilizer!? Iโm jealous how easy your soil is to dig up!
You wasted no time planting once you got home! Now relax on that porch with your beverage of choice and watch it grow!
Corey just to remember when all that was covered in snow taller than you! And now look at how wonderful it is!
