This week, I decided it was about time I planted some bulbs, so I tackled my shady woodland corner as well as my side border. Also, I am sharing some of my tips for planting Spring bulbs, and I share an old clip on planting lasagne containers.

Yes always a good day with a new dainty video! I need to plant mine!
I love dungarees this time of year 🙂
Just finished planting my bulbs yesterday. Did have to run to the garden center and pick up wire to go over my raised garden bed. The neighborhood squirrels though it would be a good idea to dig them. Those bulbs are now protected. Much love from Canada ❤️
When I moved to this house I planted bulbs. The squirrel s ate everyone of them!
Have you done a video on composting? I tried to look at the lists of videos but didn’t see anything.
Do you have a hair care routine Catherine? Your hair looks amazing!
I really need to get one of those bulb planters…will be such a help (and less messy, lol) I also really want to do a couple of those lasagne pots, yours looked so good this year!

My garden is sleeping for the winter and I have done 6 rounds of leaves the 7th will be very small. Lots of wind today so the oak leaves are finally down, so I'm on garden vacation until the end of April.
Enjoyed the video today. Hope you’re feeling much better 💜
Been thinking for about 3 weeks I was done in garden but it keeps a calling, always something to do and always miss doing stuff out there x
You have put me in the bulb mood. I will try it this year. You inspire me. Thanks Catherine!
Thanks for the cheery video.Your Garden has transformed so much since I first had the luck of being presented with one of your videos. This is the second bulb planting season I get to watch. I am looking forward to the anticipation of seeing all the newly planted once make their appearance.
In the meantime, there will be Christmas decorating videos and plenty of chances, I hope, to sip on a cup of tea while watching your fireplace flicker and listen to your happy chatter.
Cheeky thumps up! 👍👍♥️♥️
The long handled bulb planters are much easier, just step on it and move on. Easy 👍
Great video thank you!
It seems we're a bit colder in the winter here in our zones but am considering planting some bulbs in containers as the other areas I can plant are surrounded by evergreens without much sun. I love seeing crocus pop up through the snow. You're encouraging me to do some planting.
I have a bulb planter also a dibber for my seeds couldn’t be without them
Doing my bulbs this week but in tubs, I'm looking forward to next year watching them grow. I put my garden to bed last week for the winter & did some busy Lizzie cuttings & they're growing nicely, I did three hydrangea cuttings but only one took. xx
I a m ready for winter break thank you for sharing looking forward to seeing it in the spring
Got my daily SMILE! I wanted to let you know that for me at least, I had to type in the 'store name with your name' to make a purchase it would not just direct me💖 Almost gave up.
👍👍💖💖x
Lovely relaxing Sunday evening gardening vlog. Will miss them at end of the season. Do agree with you it is nice to have a rest from all the gardening in the winter and return with fresh vigour in the Spring. Have a great week everyone 💖
Hope you are feeling better. 😊 You have inspired me to try my hand at planting bulbs this year. 🌷🌷🌷
I've never heard of "lasagne planting", but am most interested!! Will definitely explore how to get going on it..
Thank you again for a wonderful video. You are an inspiration for gardening. Have a blessed week.
It’s late autumn in Australia and we have had lots of rain.
Our gardens are so lush and enjoying the warmer weather 💛
Hi Catherine, I love your channel so much. I've just tried to look for your video on what your bulb lasagna turned out but can't seem to find it. Could you send us a link? X
Hi Catherine that’s great to know I’m not too late to plant some bulbs I’ve got lots of empty pots that would be nice to put bulbs in them . Thank you. 🙋🏻♀️🪴🌷Patricia x
Here in California, Fall has really just started.🍂 I loved the vlog today, Catherine.🍂
You are so funny. I get a laugh every time I watch your vlogs. Your garden will be so pretty come spring.
I got you girl, I only planted mine this Sunday.
But already dreaming about the display in the spring. It's a good thing to be planting this time of the year, as it brightens the dark long days before Christmas
in love with your voice 🥰
Oh come spring the garden will be even more beautiful with the spring bulbs blooming. Here in my area Connecticut US we have had a strange warm spell. The gardens look beautiful but the trees have lost their leaves.
Hi Catherine! Love your videos! What zone are you in? I’m in zone 8 in North Carolina, US. One day I hope to visit Ireland! 💕
Hi Catherine I can’t wait to see them bloom ! Thanks for sharing they will look lovely !
Bulb planting gives such joy in the spring! Do yourself a big favour and get an auger – 8cm should be good – attaches to your drill and easy to drill holes for bulbs! Or for small plants – you can thank me later 😉
Crocuses and snowdrops would look pretty in the your lawn perhaps?🌼🌸🌷
TFS so im wondering why you have no hostas for the woodland and Lily of the valley and Im curious what is in that gap near your storage shed- it just stands out which is why my ask. I love your cottage inside and out. I can no longer garden so I live vicariously through you gentle genteel videos. Thank you for being you 🪺🍄💐🌸🪴🌻 I live in AZ so this is actually when we garden prune etc without turning into human leather or crispy humans🔥
After graduation on December 17th, I will be following along with you and doing what you do in the garden. I CAN NOT WAIT!! Love from Indiana!
You are an absolute charmer! Love to see you working in your garden….it is so pretty.
Watch your channel from Chicago. (I’m Irish – moved here 20+ years ago). But love your sweet garden & all your cleaning/travels & DIY.
By the way – it’s AUGER. HARD G. You’re saying aujer. Lol.
You are a joy to watch!! I think you are so right when you suggest letting nature take care of the bulbs. Nature is so amazing. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Those bulbs will look amazing come spring. And the woodland corner, how far it has come! Good job. Nature is smiling on you 🌷🌄🌡
This video is fun! I just love your brunnera, it is on my plant wish list for next spring: ) And your ferns, look how pretty they go together!
Going to be more beautiful ❤
