    Uh oh! Is that ONE 'String Theory' amsonia? I think I planted mine in a wrong spot.
    It looks like an alien space craft landed in your yard. 👽

    I cut my daylilies to the ground after they are done blooming. They grow back so quickly with beautiful foliage.

    Great video the bushes look better but next time get a shot of that wonderful grass that I made look amazing

    ❤ Thank you for sharing the bouquet. I too often do not make those bouquets thinking that I should just leave it outside. You are such a joy to watch and follow!

    Love learning from you. The deer are pruning most of my plants for me. I must have a salad bar for them. There is plenty around our house for them to eat. Makes me Sad!

    You always brighten my day and help relieve my stress Jenny! Thanks for the videos, your gardens are gorgeous! Very inspirational!

  21. Tiger Lilly

    Thank you Jenny! So very, very, very helpful! Question, do you continue to fertilize the perennials that you trimmed back, for example the phlox! Thank you again! Visited your nursery in early June, loved it so much, can’t wait to go back!

    Love Your encouragement on the baby steps to getting things done at this time of the season. YEAP, It sure is a hot 🥵 time this season so far. Time to shop for fall in the A/C after those small chores and up keep before we pass out in this heat. STAY COOL 😎

  24. Charlotte Goforth

    Jenny, welcome home. It's reassuring to watch you tackle the trimming, but I must admit I gasped a couple of times. Thx. cgzone8

    I live everything about gardening but darn do I wish I had your knees and back. Lol mines gone by the wayside😂

    Hi Jenny. My daylillies constantly needs cleaning during the growing season. The dead foliage needs to be pulled. I don’t normally deadhead mine either but I do remove the pods so they can bloom longer.

    I am wondering where I can purchase the pig in the front of your flower garden. He is awesome in your garden.

    Thank you so much for your guidance on cleaning up perennials! Very helpful! I'm wondering about any cleanup for supertunias. This is my first year with supertunias in my front yard flower bed. I'm in Wilmington zone 8a and like everywhere, the heat, rain and humidity is making the lovelies look a little tired. Anything to do (other than weed and feed) that might give me some more enjoyment this summer? Thank you!

  32. Anita Hadley

    Thanks for the lessons, much needed this time of year. My baptisia is newly planted this year but seems to be spaying a bit. Would it be okay to prune it even if it’s new and not very big?

  33. Inez Chappell

    Thank you for showing us how to take care of cleaning up our plants in this hot weather! Great information! I like that you are honest and show us pretty flowers and sometimes the weeds!!❤

  34. JoAnn Ring

    Jenny, you do know I love your Babe! That’s why we drove from Illinois to NC to meet you and Jerry to get my Babe! ❤️🐖

    Thank you for taking the time to explain your toolbelt and tools. Felco 322 and 2's. Thank you for slowing down the pace of what today's project is in your videos. I like how you explain what is expected expected in today's video within the first minute and include information to catch newish viewers up to speed.

    I’m not sure it registered with me that the big “bushes” were loropetalums!! Same kind I have?? 😳

    Bunnies have been chewing on everything in the garden. There is an over abundance of baby bunnies this year.

    "A little sercy". My sister in law who lives in South Carolina always brings little surprise gifts when she comes to visit me in Florida and says "oh it's just a little sercy" . She is the only person I ever heard use that term, until today!! 😀 As always, enjoyed the video thanks for always keeping it real!!!
