Do you have a follow-up video? Would love to see all of this in bloom and especially a second year! Thank you!!

[carolinesmith]

Great effort you two, team work is fantastic, a great video, I enjoyed it immensely.xx

[jilld]

I’m seeing this is 2023. Have you done a video of this area since you planted it in 2021?

[Lakeport.is.blooming]

Thank you for this, I've been looking for plant ideas of the same situation....now I'm feeling more confident 💚🪴💚

[kooale]

Love the emphasis on native plants, very forward thinking

[Sroseb]

This is a great video with lots of information. Everyone should have theses drills.

[sarahcox]

Such a helpful video as I’m planning a mostly shaded garden right now. Would love an update on how it’s looking!

[sheriosborne]

What a great video .. I planted that same Heuchera it’s doing so good . Can’t wait for the updates

[pamelavalente]

Just accidentally found your channel. So glad I did. I really enjoyed the format, the clear info on each plant, their growth habits and placement of them. Will definitely be following to see how this lovely shade area progresses in the coming months.
Especially great to see how well the two of you work together. 💚😊💚

[mattlock]

This is great, love your videos. I’ve got a small shaded area that needs looking at, and you’ve given me some ideas. All the best from UK

[deirdrebrowne]

Would love to see a picture of this area in full bloom

[Robinicat]

Thanks for the great plant ideas. It would be good at this point, a year later, to show videos and photos you may have taken at the end of last season. You have shown the 'before'. Can you show the 'after'? You could re-edit this video to reveal the end result.

[evasilvalayton]

Please show us how the garden looks NOW. You showed us the process and gave us advice, we would love to see the results of your knowledge and effort ❣️

[LisaCupelli]

I really enjoyed this video- thank you! Is there a video showing it growing in?

[Jane-West]

That deer in your garden is going to eat your Hostas!😂

[melodeeruley]

Yes I’d like to see an update please !

[SJC]

Thanks. I had no idea begonias were perennial.

[JeannetteHelbert]

I absolutely love the hookera(coral bells) in all the different colors they are available in. They are great vibrant colors, hardy and they don't need much at all to keep maintained.

1. My experience with perennial dianthus is they bloom fairly long in late spring early summer about 3wks but only once, with only sporadic 2 or 3 blooms popping up here & there the rest of summer. In full sun you will get a beautiful carpet of blooms but in a shady location not so much. The common variety is more of a flowering groundcover. The flower stalk grows about 2-3 inches above the foliage. what they lack in progressive flowering they make up in the beautiful blue-green creeping groundcover of soft spikey foliage. All dianthus spent blooms are unsightly and need deadheading. To better showcase the foliage you have to deadhead. Luckily it happens all at once and is easy to do. I take a handful at a time and with scissors ( or grass shears) shear the spent flower stalks level at the top of foliage. If you have a large area you can use electric shears & with a shrub rake flick out the clippings. The taller varieties of dianthus sometimes called "garden carnation" have taller stems at the sacrifice of interesting foliage. They are segmented & tend to flop over and look messy including the foliage. Every year I planted the taller variety. They were annuals ( zone 6) despite being labeled as perennial. I stuck with the perennial shorter groundcovers. They are not the same as the large double bloom very long stemmed florist carnation variety of dianthus. 2. Begonias are annuals. 3. Hostas take a few years to fill out if you are planting 4 or 6 inch pots. They size up by expanding their crown size (clump) but that gives you time before they have to be divided.
