Nice vidio.. Salam hadir saudaraku
Very nice, paul!
Good morning Paul,
Your hydrangeas cutting look great! Love your little robin in your garden! Your garden still looks beautiful 😍.
Ваш сад хорош во все времена года!
THANKS PAUL,WE MUCH APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF THE FROST 🤩🤩 and you have captured it for us 🤗💚💚💚
What a wonderful way to start the morning. I loved the ariel shot of your garden. You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much for your channel. I always learn something. 🥀🌹🌿
I always enjoy your videos Paul as I seem to have the same taste as yourself in plants. I moved earlier this year and have a bigger garden so I can indulge my passion for hydrangeas the oakleaf hydrangea is on my shopping list. I also enjoyed your video on the animals that visit your garden at night marvellous!
Looking good!!! The garden is going into rest mode(above the surface). Hope that you are still planning to do an upcoming video on hardwood cuttings. Thank you.
С какой любовью вы рассказываете о своих растениях. Ваш сад прекрасно чувствует себя и при заморозках. Вам и вашему саду удачи и красоты в любое время года.
Thank you , it is wonderful to see your garden in all seasons. Tottenham, Ontario, Canada.
I feel that many of us are quite excited about the cold spell we're experiencing at the moment. Probably because of rising temperatures and the mild winter of last year. Your garden still looks lovely 😍 you really have achieved year round interest. 😀
Western US native plants such as Ceanothus (a.k.a. California Lilac) and Penstemon will not thrive unless their growing requirements are met: they ought to have excellent drainage, moderately alkaline soil, no fertilizers of any sorts, and absolutely no summer watering. Drip or sprinkle irrigation in the summer will quickly finish the plants off. 😳
Love seeing you and your little sidekick. What a treat.
very interesting, the water in the pond was covered with a very thick ice crust, it is interesting to observe and I planted low-growing violas for plants, they can withstand up to -8 frost, and they also bloom. Now the truth is they are already under the snow now I will see them only in mid-April next year. Thanks for the review.
When we moved to Cumbria they said 'November is wet' (and how!) but December will suddenly be bright, very cold and frosty. A full plastic tub of water froze last night; everywhere 'white over'. still below zero. Took pretty photos, came in fast. Thanks Paul
That little bird steals the show! Amazing how well your garden looks in December. Thanks for the tour.
It's still looking beautiful, frosty coats and all. Which lace cap is the cutting up the walk, it was just lovely. I'm looking forward to longer days coming back the end of Dec. 😊
So wonderful to still have so many plants to enjoy in Dec. Our Ceanothus and Choisya never survive for long here. Your little Robin friend follows you like a dog. So cute.
You are a very passionate gardener and that is appreciated. I love hearing the birds singing, I feel immense joy in my heart. Here we are covered with snow❄️🌨️ since November 2nd, we are frozen🥶 I have my plants inside the house and my garage now, I have them with grow lights. Now I just have to be patient and wait for spring to arrive so I can get them out of this brutal confinement😝🤭💚💚💚🪴🌵🙋🏻♀️
Hi Paul, isn’t it pretty when Jack Frost pays an overnight visit and leaves his touch 😁 I was wondering if you have a certain type of moss growing between your pavers by your vehicle. I love moss. It’s also amazing how much life your pond supports for its size. As you know I am an admirer of your pond 😉 Thanks so much for sharing 😊
Thanks for the tour!
We had the frost too in deepest Dorset. Seeing how your garden looks makes me think that I need to do more tidying up in my garden. Good news I took a couple of late hydrangeas cutting which. I have kept on the kitchen window sill. I thought they were dead but had a little peep at one today and it has loads of roots..woooohoo
Beautiful Paul 🥰🥰
Good Morning Paul, wow! that was a hammering frost. Looking good, I can see how you are already looking forward to Spring with so many first year plants in and the anticipation of seeing how the less hardy will fare. That eucalyptus would make some lovely Christmas floral arrangements. I would be taking my secateurs to that one! Thanks for a lovely winter tour of your garden. I would love the hydrangea pruning (for dummies) garden tour in Spring….😜 have a lovely festive season and Merry Christmas, Paul.
I like your editing style, cutting away to drone shot and back. Here in zone 8, I dare not plant Canna, Elephant ears …
Your garden looks lovely even in December. The Robin is such a sweet species. We are having a chilly spell -4 tonight. Have a wonderful Christmas ⛄🎄 from Germany
Thanks Paul, you’ve given me hope for the survival of some of my plants. I felt guilty that I hadn’t cut my salvia amistad back or dug out my dahlias for winter storage. I’m just going to see what happens now and hope for the best. The garden looks so beautiful on a frosty morning.
I hope your tropical plants survive the winter! even in December there's still so much interest in your garden. the bird following you for snacks is very precious
That was a lovely winter tour, a frozen over pond always looks beautiful and sad at the same time.
I'm always amazed at how often your bird friend spends time with you🥰
When did it started doing that?
I have now a fence pole in my front garden with a planting basket bracquet and a few bird feeding stations on it.
Sadly not many visiters yet, since I don't have a tree in my garden yet that can provide safety and shelter.
But I did a cutting a few weeks ago and bought rooting powder to make the cutting succesfull🤞
Yesterday I spotted our local Robin on top of our shed, these are my favourite birds aside from black birds💖
I'm looking forward to spring so that I can finally start making my Joel Ashton wildlife pond🥰😍
I have to dig out a part of the plants from my existing border to allow for enough width.
And maintain enough space to the right of the pond, for a pathway where we can walk with our bikes to the garden entrance.
It's very important to us, otherwise I could have dug a wider pond😆
Here in South Oxfordshire we’ve had frost for two days and today woke up today to snow – not a lot but dicey on our country lanes! Always love seeing your videos and your good advice of leaving plants in and seeing what happens. 🪴⭐️
