I just bought a house with beautiful landscaping and numbers of all kinds of perrenials. Not so familar with cutting back before winter comes so this video has been extremely helpful!

I appreciate your sensitivity towards the garden. I’ve been listening between your words and instructions on pruning, which might not make sense to some. But to me it is the sign of an artist whose heart is in their art. Your passion and knowledge regarding what is growing, regarding size, shape, habitat and how the plantings relate to each other, is not only informative, but heartwarming! Thank-you for sharing this informative video.
I loved seeing the tree of many branches that you planted when you and your wife bought your home. I have to replay the video to get the name as I’m not familiar with it, but it is awesome! I have 5 grandkids who love climbing trees.

I just came across your video for the first time and I truly enjoyed it. I live in Connecticut not far from the Mass. border and I was hoping to find videos from Ct gardeners so that the advise applies to my garden as well. I love being outside and stick my hands in the dirt
, rain or shine, but I’m learning as I go. I don’t know all the names of my plants, I mostly acquired them from friends and I’ve enjoyed sharing them with my younger friends who wanted to expand their garden but trying to keep costs down. I have many of the same plants you do and now I knows their names and how to care for them in the fall. I look forward watching more of your videos, hoping they are as practical as this one. Good job!

This video helped me as a new home owner. The previous owner loved landscaping and gardening, there's so many plants I didn't know how to winterize. Most of the folliage is now showing up after the snow melted and the property is a mess. Its good to know I can trim them and the plant will (hopefully) return this summer.

As a head groundskeeper and property manager these videos are well, done and informative . I really enjoy always getting something out of them.

[joelyboyblue]

really cool to hear you talk about so many plants in one video

Very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. They say that the garden takes on the gardener’s personality…. And your garden shows your warm and caring personality.
I came across your video looking for what else I need to take care of in my own garden this fall’23 I started planting various bulbs a few weeks ago only to realize that the beds are loaded with them throughout.(my 4th year in this home) I am still trying to learn the plants throughout this extensive landscape. All sorts of fruit, nut, trees and shrubs.
Would you cut candytuft back at this time? Mine is looking straggly and if so how far back? I’m in western Washington; zone 8b.
Looking forward to watching more of your content. Thank you!

Please keep adding content. You have a wealth of knowledge that needs to be past on to everyone. Thanks.

An even easier way to do fall cleanup is to do nothing. All I do is mulch leaves. Some plants are basically reduced to nothing if left over the winter, they just kind of take care of themselves. By the time summer rolls around everything is looking good again. Why create more work than you need to? Plus all that plant matter, and leaves from trees improve the soil if mulched or just left to decompose. I've used this style of gardening and lawncare the last 3 or 4 years and it works. It just made me realize how unnecessary a lot of the work I used to do was.

Thank you for sharing this video for all to see👍

[susiemeszaros]

Oh yes, really enjoyed you rambling on about your beautiful garden. Learned loads too. Thank you!

[thistlefarmer]

As always I am in awe of your knowledge and technique. As I watched you trimming that Hosta I could only think that if it were mine I would probably run the lawn mower over it. Possibly I should have a bed of "mower tolerant" plants. This of course is coming from a guy that prunes his mothers red tipped Photinia with a chain saw. You might remember I made a video about this back in 2015. I should take another video showing you how it has flourished in the last two years. I loved your climbing tree!

[stacylamountain]

Just planted the Dawn Redwood this year! Wow! I am excited to see it grow like yours 👍🏻

[lindaducmanas]

Thank you so much for the wonderful video. I have been watching you for a short time but you are one of my favorites. I have learned so much from you. God bless and keep up the wonderful work you do.

[bjagren]

Is it good to leave the dead cuts from pruning in the Fall on the plants to use as a compst

[cynthiaherr]

Great Video John, A great reminder as well that I have a lawn to cut for the last time till springtime..lol
Take Care, Stay warm and dust off the snow shovel, it's almost here..lol

[barbglaw]

I so appreciated the advice on the montauk daisies and spires. Thanks.

[Hammersmithblues]

Wow, wasn't expecting to see a Lesche digging tool! I've got 20 years in on mine and expect it to out last me.

[matthewcacace]

Great video as always, thanks John! I always watch to see which plants I have and what to do with them

[dorisafejuku]

Very instructive. I leave my sedum( Autumn joy) in spring because l like its winter effect .
