2021 June Garden Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSltZR2taSI
Hello! My name is Bethany and I grow things in my rooftop container garden in Chicago, zone 6a. May flew by so fast and it is now time for the June garden tour!
The Spring crops have been pulled and the Summer plants are in their place. Now it’s time to watch them grow.

It's looking beautifil! What size pots are you using for your dahlias? I'm still growing baby ones that I'll need to up pot soon😅
Thanks so much for the tour. I wish I had that much room. I do have a south facing balcony that is about 10' long (the usual apartment size balcony) and gets morning sun but there is a large tree that starts to block the sun after about 5 hours. I'd like to grow sunflowers too. Do you think I'm getting enough sun for them? Happy gardening.
I'm so glad I'm here for the beginning so I can see things as they grow & bloom
What size container is your raspberry in? I just got one at a plant swap. There was no variety on it.
Great progress,
You look cute in the white outfit you have on 💚🌱❤️
If you are still looking for a space for those morning glories, they make a really pretty “spiller” plant in tall pots or hanging baskets. 🤩
Amazing content, thank you for sharing, well done!
Gorgeous area!
Your garden is so tidy and organized. I love it! You've inspired me to do a garden tour of mine, we'll see Lol
Everything is looking so good!!
Beautiful garden!
Do you keep a notebook of your garden? I can’t remember everything
Hi! I’m pretty much in the same zone as you NWI .. so just curious if we would be able to grow fruit successfully? And which type are best? Thanks✨🤍
Very beautiful and Colourful garden. I love everything. New member here. greetings from Uganda.
First of all, thanks for sharing your BEAUTIFUL garden! I have never gardened on a rooftop, but I imagine you likely have a lot of advantages… less pest pressure, more sunlight and controlled shade, very fun. Your herb garden is really gorgeous, I love the layering and the terra cotta pots.
Also, your Hydrangea are stunning. Have a beautiful weekend!
Garden looks awesome, can’t wait to see everything blooming 💕💕💕
Love your garden 🪴❤️ every time you said morning glory it freaked me out 😂 we get morning glory in our grass and it’s hard to get rid off because it’s wild.
Where did you buy your garden table s🇺🇸
Great video!! I also grow on my balcony with limited space but more focused on fruit/vegetables – love seeing all the flowers you have!! ☺️🌸🌱
I'm looking forward to see how your morning glory grows!
Where did you get your herb plant stand?
The best place for long container with morning glories is next to metal structure with the first morning glory in a pot. They need A LOT of space for blooms to climb up to something TALL.
