Come to Oregon 🤦♀️
Deb here. These are sensible tips. Can always count on Jenny to provide the best advice. Your garden is looking beautiful.
Jenny all your gardens are looking so pretty.
Oh my gosh, those daylillies. Do you not have deer?!?!?!
Perfect tips and reminders! I need to take more breaks and drink more water. Do mosquitos not bother you (I'm in NC as well)? I literally have to be completely covered in repellent. Your garden is looking amazing and ALWAYS such an inspiration. Thank you!
Hi Jerry and Jenny. Question on the day lilies. I transplanted a bunch to a sunnier location a couple of seasons ago. One variety bloomed after one season of being transplanted but a different variety has not yet bloomed. They have grown quite a bit but I am still not seeing bloom stalks. Am I doing something wrong?
Hi from Ohio! Could you please do a tour of your cottage garden and what the plants are? It’s Beautiful! Love your channel
TY! We are roasting and my little garden is feeling it! The tips were very helpful.
Hi Jenny! Love your beautiful gardens! All great tips and reminders!!! Hugs! 🙂
Some of us healthcare workers work early mornings. I have to water in the evenings…
Your flowers are absolutely beautiful 🌻❤️🌻❤️❤️❤️
Great tips. Your backdrop garden behind you is amazing. Would you be able to do a little tour of that space there’s a couple of plants that are amazing and I’m not sure what they are. Love your channel
Brilliant information !
Wow! Thanks for the hanging basket tub advice. I love hanging baskets. I would water and fertilize religiously. They would still be wilty and eventually die. Western Oregon isn't known for heat..but it doesn't rain in July and August. Add 80 or up to 100 degrees and it becomes death to my baskets. Again, thank you.
Love your cottage garden….gorgeous! Also great tips on gardening in this heat! Loved the flute like sounds of the Wood Thrush bird….I could hear him while you were talking. One of my favorite summer sounds!
Y’all just say a prayer for the folks in zone 8 and up. We are dying down here in the deep south
Great tips Jenny. Thank you! We live and garden on one acre in northwestern Oregon. It's now in the 80s and 90s this week. Quite a contrast to the continual RAIN we've had the last few months up thru half of June!!🌞 I found this very helpful and delightful even though I have been gardening for over 40 years!! Your gardens are looking gorgeous! 🌻🌿🌺🌸🌼🪴
The captivating song of the Wood Thrush. My favorite!
I do know all these tips Jenny but you present it so well!!!! Always good to hear again!!! Thanks you are an awesome teacher!!🥰
Bye your hair is adorable!!! Judy in Pensacola fl
I am wondering how you keep deer and rabbits away. I am in NC and struggle to spray flowers regularly with Liquid Fence and have to cage susceptible trees. Do you have a fence around your beautiful garden?
What were the established plants with The White Trumpet like blooms with the scent grown from seed?
Great Tips 100* in Georgia
Thanks for the tips. I leaned a few new things!
Best video I’ve seen from you yet, I usually watch garden answer, but I loved the prepared talking points and the streamlined approach
Thank you for this Jenny! Great tips! I am just getting into gardening and this was wonderful. I especially giggled when you said “this is not a fashion show” and also to not do the swirly thing with the hose. Haha. Thanks again!
The first day of Summer is June 21st
Excellent video and great suggestions. I garden near Winston-Salem NC. It has been very hot, humid and with little breeze. In my 70s and learned a long time ago to work before the sun come up or in the evening. I always have a half gallon container with ice and water nearby. Thank goodness for my large brimmed hat. I follow all the other tips you provided except for one…taking regular breaks. Once i start working i loose track of time. So from now on i will do as you say. I will plan what i can work on for 10 minutes, stop, get in the shade, rehydrate, take off my hat and cool down. Then i will repeat this for a couple hours then go inside and shower with cool water. I find if i work till i am about to drop it is no fun. It is also dangerous as i can more easily loose my balance or trip…these are the last things i want to do. If i suddenly get too hot i take off my hat and run water from the hose over my head, arms and legs. That really makes a huge difference. I can then rest a bit then get my tools and go inside. Better be safe than sorry. Thanks for your videos. Susan
Always you’re good person 😄😁👌
