What are the dimensions of your rooftop terrace? It will give me a better sense of how much I can do with mine. Love your channel and Happy Birthday!
Beautiful garden Bethany. 💕
Bethany everything is coming together nicely! I can’t wait till everything is in full bloom. Sorry about the hydrangeas and the rose. I think your shade garden is going to be gorgeous. Happy Birthday 🎊🎉🎁
Happy Birthday Celebration! Your plants look great! Do you grow your seedling all in grow light? What size of grow bag do you use on your Dahlias? Where did you buy your green house? Sorry for million questions lol.
Greetings from Chicago 🎉
I luv what you can accomplish in your Chicago walled gardens.
I am also still waiting on my roses to bounce back. I just moved them and I don't know if it survived due to the weather spikes.
Is that an Amalfi Lemon tree? that lemon is humongous.
Respectfully requesting on the variety of that lemon tree.
Toss a banana in the pots that look like they may be dead to revive them.. happy birthday
I wish I could pull off a sun hat like you. I don't get full sun anywhere so I'm curious how your shady side goes. Happy birthday 🎉. I love lemons. What a beauty! I thought it was a Mellon lol
Great video……..Don't give up on the Hydrangea. We are in the same zone and ours are just pushing new growth.😇
Happy Birthday!! I’m in Chicago too and overwintered my potted hydrangeas in my garage. Half of them game out of dormancy beautifully, the other half not so much. All of them had viable buds when I brought them outside but half now look just like the ones you showed. This is my first time with hydrangeas and overwintering them. I still have some hope!! Love your show.
Although our hydrangas are not in pots (different conditions), if I were you I'd be a bit more patient with them. Ours always looks hopeless but like a Phoenix it always arises to the occasion. 😅😁 It'll sometimes take months but they last the longest through the season. I organized all of my containers and yard last Friday. I feel so relieved and ready to get everything in the soil. Happy birthday to you! I'm also a May child that loves various hues of pinks who also container gardens in Chicago!😃🥳🎁🎂🍦🫂👩🏾🌾🌿
Aw, well everything is moving right along. Wishing you a very happy birthday. You do look beautiful with that pretty color lipstick that pops. Can’t wait for the end results and good luck with the plants that look iffy.
Looks great – love that view off your back deck. so cool for living in the city . How many blooms do you think u get on those dinner plate dahlias ? i have not yet tried a dinner plate one. Oh and hope u had a great birthday 🎂🥂
My hydrangea always dies back to the ground every year. It is in the ground. It sends up new growth every year but I often wonder if it has died because it is the last thing to come up.
My roses also died all the way back to the ground this year too.
Can't wait to see the Garden when you have everything planted. It sounds amazing.
Happy Birthday Sweet Lady.
