Is the Double raspberry zinnia in the profusion series? They've come out with several newer colors over the past 3 years but I have not seen this one.
Hi Jim,
When I zoom your videos to fill on my phone,📱 it hides half your writing in the bottom corner x 🖤💙🖤🙏😇🇦🇺
Jim this is all so artfully done. I truly love your garden!
Jim- when time to pull zinnias, what do you like to plant in their place?
Wood thrush has one of the MOST beautiful songs!
Just amazing
You're garden is looking great, Jim! As a South African, I can't imagine any garden without the appearance of abundance that Agapantus brings to a summer garden. And excitingly enough, various newer named varieties tends to be tougher are are reblooming. It's great to seeing this South African beauty shine in the US a bit. It's been hugely popular in the warmer parts of the UK, Europe and Australia for decades!
Hi Stephanie nice to hear your voice. Beautiful hot garden 😍. Besides the heat garden is gorgeous. I love acanthus, but I don't have that. I 'll get some. Thank you, Jim Putnam
I love to cut the flowers, but mine go in a vase. This is my first year growing dahlia and zinnias. 💕♥️
My dark knight caryopteris is also blooming right now in the wrong season. It might be the heat wave. I don't know but I like it.
Absolutely stunning Jim 🌸💕🌸
In Austin, TX 8b, we have had 10 consecutive triple-digit days, a day of 99, and we're in triple-digits again for at least another week. No rain. I'm watering but it's not the same as rain. Zinnias open pitifully. We're in survival mode. This is what we get for good weather in March and a first frost in November.
Your garden is just beautiful. I am a novice and also zone 7B. Planning my drip as we speak. Since I have the clay soil, Do you recommend the .5 Gph drip line for a native perennial flower bed?
Anonymous people think my yard is a great place to post lawn signs (house washing, concrete services and lately, political). I toss the signs and use the metal frames as perennial supports. Easy to install around young dahlias.
Tell me how you grew your Lidia this. I have seed, in zone 7b, and could not understand directions
Everything is looking lush and beautiful. I love these garden tour videos!.
Thanks JIm for showing us how to prune the spirea. I love the way you have let it sort of ramble and grow naturally. My lawn guys just turn them into balls which is fine in the long run, but yours looks much nicer.
Everyone's talking about the heat. We've barely had a few 70+ days here in North ID, wetter spring than usual. Peonies are just starting to bloom, lettuce loving the spring, rest of veggies are struggling to get going. But been a busy time for transplanting and rearranging my yard. I think my plants shake when I walk out into the yard "Is she gonna move me today". Next year the yard should be like I want it. I'm removing or rearranging many plants/shrubs that came with the house and taking Jim's advice, "If it's not working for you get ride of it".
If I were Little Bonnie, I would prefer a renewal cut in spring, very oldest stems only. If you see some basal sprouts, you can renewal prune in midsummer.
Same for hydrangea, deutzia, fothergilla etc.
No heading back, ever.
Yes they might be covered in bloom next year, but the internal structure becomes congested and not productive of basal shoots.
They should be encouraged to grow as naturally a form as possible.
Funny how this garden always appeared bigger than what it really is. The beginning of this video put's It's size in better perspective. Just goes to show what you can do with a small garden. Absolutely love it. Thank you Jim for all you do with your channel.
Beautiful as always! My celosa are mixed into a full sun annual border and they haven’t grown. They’re a few inches tall with a pink top and have been that way since I planted them in April.
Thank you. Subscribed.
RELLAY SO NICE🇧🇩🇧🇩
My blue fortune is a lot bigger than I expected. I’m guessing twice as big as yours. It’s only been in the ground a year. If not such a pollinator magnet I would reconsider – my full sun space is limited.
Your yard is beautiful, and you've given me some great ideas for plants I can add to my gardens. I also appreciate your tutorials on pruning back spirea and salvia which I have and was wondering about as both are in need of pruning. Also, loved your zinnias and St John's Wart.
All those beautiful plants and Holly steals the show when the camera caught her resting and listening to the birds.
She's so sweet.
Garden looks great especially with the early intense heat.
Love your gardens, absolutely beautiful your hard work has paid off . I don’t plan May annuals except marigolds. I have some large areas fill and got some ideas from you. I am more into roses , lilies lavender, salvia sedum , yucca.
