    Hi Janey 🌺 garding cleaning , well done . your garden looks so beautiful. At the end of the video you and Jason made me laugh so much.Have awonderful day 🌻🌺🌻

  4. Nery Aleman

    Good good morning Mrs Janey… i have couple of question: what is the name of the ivy with the purple beans? Do you have a heater on your green house? I am zone 9b Kearns Utah but I have snow.

    Don't worry about the aphids on the milkweed as it's the end of season for them anyway. I'd cut them back throwing out seed for next year. The seeds like a little cold to germinate. Mine are perennial in Texas coming back each spring from the roots.

    I loved your waddle fence so much that I ordered one from Home Depot( online only) a 48” length!
    Nice to see your changes- that’s what gardening is ? Love it🪴

  9. Grant West

    It would be hilarious if Jason was a caterpillar for Halloween. But idk if they make caterpillar costumers for grown men lol.

    Happy Halloween Janey – a Monarch is a perfect costume for a gardener. I hope you, youur husband and girls have a Spooktacular day!!!

  11. Shadow Night

    See what happens with your pink pentas. Here in 9a Louisiana, older people in the neighborhood told me they were perennials. I left mine and of course we had a hard winter. They came up in May again, and I was so happy.

    The wasp predator’s will take the aphid numbers down. Don’t worry! All of my various milkweeds get these aphids and recover just fine. I gently run my thumbs and for fingers along the stems and then squish the aphids. Between your careful efforts and the natural predators your plants will be okay. Spend your energy on what you’re able to do, and less on what you can’t.

    That was a great way for the start of the video. Amazing. I do have my fingers crossed for the next growing season for you to have monarch butterflies coming to your garden. There are a couple of ways that you can get rid of those aphids which are: Ladybugs, and a solution that needs to be direct contact on those pesky pests which is • 1 part (e.g. 1 oz) Blue Dawn

    • 1 part Isopropyl Alcohol

    • 1 part white vinegar

    • 128 parts (e.g. 1 gal) water. Be careful not to hit the eggs or Larva. Another solution is to plant marigolds and onions close to the milkweed plant. Enjoy and have a wonderful day.

    You make a beautiful butterfly Janey. Perfect Halloween costume for you this year! Have a wonderful week. 🦋🦋🦋🦋

  17. Aimee Williams

    Love your into….you had me laughing so hard! The earwigs have been horrible for me this season too. I put a little dish with vegetable oil and soy sauce in the ground as a bait and it really helps knock down the population.

  20. Melissa Decena

    That is one happy monarch butterfly 🤣 Janey you crack me up! What a transformation your backyard did, everything looks amazing. Hope you and your family have a Happy Halloween 🎃👻🦇

  21. Denise Wade

    Janey, out here in Rancho Murieta I had the worst problems with the aphids on my milkweed plants and earwigs on my lambs ears too! My leaves looked like yours and sluggo didn’t help. I’m not sure what the answer is for those pesky bugs, but I’ll research and if you figure it let us know! You are a beautiful monarch! Have a safe and fun Halloween with your girls! Iris have rhizomes. 😉🎃🧟‍♀️🎃

  23. May Rend

    🤩😍 Janey thank you so much for the smile. I loved that intro. "Is that a Monarch butterfly" 😁😊🦋

  24. Sandra Bradbury

    I use a spray bottle with water and a few drops of dish soap and spray the heck out of aphids. Works well and doesn't harm surrounding plants.

  29. Jalila Ahmed

    pentas come back in my zone 9a all the time. the tags aren't always right I know that from experience all of Houston treat caladium like a perennial but the plant tag says its zone 10.

  30. Sharon Allen

    Janie Wal-Mart and Wayfair have the Lutyen benches in white online. That would look beauitful. I have 2 Lutyen in my garden I bought a couple years back,
    I see they have really increase in cost.
    I got my online at Lowes then.

  33. DigsInDirt

    Janie – I think you’ll be very successful with the supertunias. I’m in 9A Houston and I have some STV Silverberry in planters that are going on almost 3 years now. I did dig up the plants and brought them inside during the deadly “Winter Freeze” crisis. But otherwise, I just cover them if we have a hard freeze and they’re doing really well. Good luck!

  36. kajane

    Your silliness resonates with me! 😄 Love your costume!
    My husband and I are dressing up as Grease characters! I'll be one of the Pink Ladies and he'll be a "greaser"! 😎

  37. Wende

    You're too funny, Miss Monarch, good luck with the Halloween contest. I had aphids all over my milkweed too, I'm moving it to my way back yard. I've never had an issue with them before, I'm not starting now, those plants can have the way back to themselves.

    My Lamb's Ear looks exactly the same!! Completely riddled with holes! Are you sure that it's earwigs doing the damage? I have been finding alot of small green caterpillars on mine and I have been assuming they were the culprit?? How do you treat if it's earwigs?? I am in Modesto, CA. Same zone as you.

  40. Tulle

    Most cute and beautiful monarch butterfly ever 🥰❤️😀
    It’s called Rhizome 😘

  41. Shelley Scarborough

    How fun! Love your costume and so appropriate for you and Halloween (wink). I had luck using dish soap/water/vinegar for the aphids and it didn't harm the monarch eggs or plants. I'm sorry you are having such a problem with aphids. Happy Halloween!

  43. Carole Mills

    Beautiful gardens. The Supertunias are so easy to overwinter. I’m in Ontario Canada, and I’ve been bringing my Supertunias inside every October (under grow lights in my basement), propagating more from cuttings and then replanting in May. The short period of time you are looking at is a piece of cake. They are fool proof plants. Love your channel so much! Thank you 🌸🍃

    Hello! I’m so excited to see you doing videos for zone 9b. I live in the central valley (Clovis) zone 9b. I love the color of your fence! How hot do your summers get? We have days in a row over 100 so it’s hard to find things that bloom during that period of summer with the exception of vincas. They bloom beautifully in the middle of summer and if I just let them die back in winter, 90% of them will come back in spring. I will look forward to your future videos. 🎃

  45. Lolly Cardoza

    Omg you're opening was so funny, I laughed so hard tears came out!! Another great video, the yard looks nice. Thank you for again for the big belly laugh, you're a beautiful monarch
