this is fantastic !!......love whole video .... way you explain, the designs the watercolor renditions.... great job !

Wei-ge-LA instead of Wei-ge-LIA.

Everything looks really beautiful. As I watch your videos I get excited to see that I made some of the same choices for my Zone 3 garden, even if I can only grow some of the stuff you are able to plant.

Fantastic, just love listening & watching, you're so fun & real. I enjoy your videos & you definitely inspire me to add new things to my gardens❤ (from WI)

I love your channel. Thank you for your enthusiasm and knowledge - between you and Laura at Garden Answer, I find a real balance of gardening goals! Thank you thank you!!!

You make experimenting in the garden a delight as I, too, think it should be. And then there is the challenge: why is the plant doing this when it is touted to do the opposite. That's the puzzle; that's the fun.

Thanks for the videos! I’m down in southern Illinois outside of St Louis. We have all the same plants…they just bloom earlier. Your gardens are lovely! If we make a trip north, we’ll have to stop by your nursery.

my chickens would make quick work of those bugs without damaging the ground they would attack like pirahna,

How about rainbows end

I have box elder bugs too! I grew up calling them Maple bugs. Because that what they were always on. I can say I hate them the most, they always fly in your face.

Beautiful!

Your Willow Orbs are the cat's meow! 😻They look so quaint as does your v-shaped hanging baskets! By your AC, I love the layering effect you achieved. Beautiful and inviting to walk down the steps and see more of your garden! That's the goal of landscaping, right - lead you from one area to the next. I love Quick Fire and Oakleaf Hydrangeas, too. I need to expand my collection of Mopheads and add more texture in my Front Garden. Just wondering...have you ever grown Elephant's Ear?

So informative. Can wait for the cut back !

Beautiful! Your front area looks really nice now, funny how ‘less is more’. Your cottage garden is coming along beautiful, man it has grown so much already👍 Aww man, you just finished with a million Cicada carcasses and a new bug takes over 🤦‍♀️… I’d be throwing in the towel 😂😂! I usually don’t watch live videos as it seems I’m watching the host look at her computer screen and answering questions that weren’t read out or on the screen 🤷🏻‍♀️ but it sounds like you have a different plan which might be good. Perhaps your way will make it possible to watch it at a later time than it ran so it will make sense and be a benefit🙏🏻. Thanks Michelle, Brenda🇨🇦

Beautiful!!

Love the cottage garden. You have the most beautiful property.

Wonderful video!

Everything looks beautiful! I love my Quickfire tree my favorite too ❤❤❤ I agree maybe the pots need more sun, although I do feel this year Proven Winners annuals don't seem to be performing as well as in the past for me not sure what's going on? Although this season so far has been strange and the bugs are absolutely horrible!

Beautiful looking gardens, they are a pollinators dream.

Oh my gosh, you should see the box elder beetle plaTOONS I have in my garden! It’s crazy. They are EVERYWHERE

what about lambs ears for silver foliage near driveway. dont need a lot of water either.

Love your channel, love your information, love your energy, just love you.❤ So looking forward to the "cutting back" video coming soon. I'm a fairly new gardener. I can grow things, but when it's time to cut back, prune, and winterize, I do it wrong and end up killing everything. So please continue any information as the season goes on about what to do with plants once they're spent, pruning, and winterizing. Thank you.❤

I love loosestrife 😊 I thought I was the only person that does lol I have a yellow one that stayed well behaved in my garden. I recently moved and my neighbour hates it and has been throwing it away for years so the property nearby has a small wild field of it growing 🙄 I wish I had some of all colors 😊 Thanks for sharing your hard work, it looks fabulous 😊 Also, do you like gladiolus? I had 18 last year and this year the bulbs seemed to have tripled and I have no idea where to put them. They’re just temporarily growing in my veggie garden and seem quite content there 😅 My flower garden doesn’t seem to be offering me a spot for them. My knockout roses were doing great but now only two out of the four are blossoming, not sure why the other two are sleeping 😢 Thanks again for the videos 😊

Love the little quick fire hydrangea too 💯

So enjoy your videos. You have the good, the bad and the not so good. Thanks for keeping it real.

👍❤️🙂

Well, we haven't had any measurable rain all month. So we're crisp. It's in the mid 90's most days and I can't water because of health so I think I've lost some plants which is tragic. Plants are expensive and I worked so hard on it the previous year. Have you ever counted how many plants you have? You're right to think about winter plants, so your garden won't look so bare. I put in several mungo pines and abroviataes. I need something with red twigs. Here the pansies last all winter and I had window boxes full of them which was a delight to look at.

What fun to see your gardens! I think I can identify two of your hostas. They are both vase shaped. The blue one is Krossa Regal and the big white-edged one with a lantern stuck in it is Sagae, or I will eat my hat! I think you are right about your pots needing more sun, especially that one with the plant in the center that you mentioned not being silver. I think it is turning green from lack of sun. Maybe in that hot spot by the driveway where the black eyed Susans are would be happier with a variegated sedum? I think that it's an interesting foliage plant. Maybe there's another succulent that would be prettier. Your property looks GREAT. My goodness it is big. Look out Klehm, you have company! :D

Lol, my husband asked what’s that noise? I said, I think cicadas. Wow, I would need earplugs. And Lordy! What a crop of boxelder bugs!! Yikes! Looks like you have a wonderful playground. Yes, to geraniums needing sun-they crave it. The impatiens always brighten up a shady area en masse. I’m not a fan of hostas. There was a plaintan hosta here and it created a mat border and I’ve tried to get rid of it. It’s in the lawn also and one snippet of root and it’s back. I was given guacamole and do love the lime color, but will be watching for bad behavior. The astilbe I now understand why my FIL surrounded it with rocks 😅 it took a few years, but as the shade tree grew-So did It! And with all this rain it’s doing equally as well in full sun. It’s been unbearable heat, humidity and mosquitoes in WI. Can’t do anything outside so I went shopping and when you showed turtles-I got glass fish with a blue glass bubble solar light😂.

Quickfire is my favorite also. I had one in my yard that was grown as a tree. Stunning. Now I have an Itty bitty one with no blooms yet. Hopefully next season. I'm condo gardening with much less space.

I have alot of Blue My Mind Evolvulus. The blooms close in the evening and open in the morning. Love your videos!!

Michelle, your gardens are looking good and really coming together. 🌺 I was thinking instead of the loosestrife what about a drift of penstemon? Onyx and Pearls or Midnight Masquerade? Would look good with the red foliage colour and the hummingbirds love it!

I love the orbs you made. I’m going to have to check out how to make them.

have you tested your water ?

i was thinking that kniphofia would look good where you were thinking of putting loostrife.

Is that small hosta at the beginning a rainforest

I'm glad to see you have earwig and slug damage to your hostas like I do. The earwigs arw the worst! Plus what a year for boxelders bugs! What's the deal with them? Further south of you, we don't have the cicadas at all!

Oh, I forgot to add. Domesticated cats kill more than 2 Billion Song Birds 🐦, *EVERY YEAR*!!! Only in the USA.😢

PLEASE note that CATS are INVASIVE species. Domestic cats kill more than 2 BILLION song Birds 🐦 only in the USA.

Beautiful! I love Veronica and just planted 3 this year. I planted a spirea this morning.

Oh, so much fun! The cottage garden is my favorite I think. And I was along when you planted it up. Looking good, Michelle.

I love this information. I can't wait to see my Salvia bloom again. I never knew how far to cut it back. Thanks so much!

You're so fun to watch & get great ideas from. ❤

Hi Michelle, congratulations on 25K viewers!! I started watching at about 1200, and I am not surprised at the growth. Your videos are fun, informative, and approachable (if that makes sense). My Baptisia are just finishing. I have some gorgeous Dianthus still blooming. I bought them from the annuals section atthe nursery, so I thought maybe they were a less hardy variety, but they came back gorgeous!! They are in a spot where I need colour, so I always put annuals there. Nothing has ever done well there until now except Verbena one year (but not the next). I have tried about 7 different types of annuals, so this was a wonderful surprise. Are there annual Dianthus? I'm zone 5 as well.

Your garden looks incredible and everything looks so healthy! Your hosta collection is impressive!
