Good evening Darren, 0:59 Stellata, certainly shaped like a stylized star! My muscari are only just beginning to show buds, so it appears that you are a full two weeks ahead of us here in Ohio, even though you are much farther north. I think that the massive ocean current that brings warmer water north to the British Isles is named the Atlantic Conveyor, if that did not exist, England would be arctic, and how very dismal that would be. 2:39 Hello there sweetie! We brough our bulldog home 10.5 years ago. We loved them when they were young, we love them 10x as much when they become older, like a dear little friend aging much too fast. Every day of our Bullie's life I take him for 3 long walks, but the past 2 years his energy is less and his leg discomfort is more. 3:16 Others get excited about Christmas, I get excited at the arrival of springtime. 3:34 I must remember to tell you that 20+ years ago I bought a Japanese hoe, 3 inches wide, 2 inches tall, the blade, the handle 18 inches long. I keep it razor sharp, and it is absolutely wonderful for hoeing in between bean plants in the row, and in the closely spaced perennials in my cottage garden. The blade is shaped like a half moon so, that enables the blade to get in beteen close growing plants and do no damage, in my garden it is my "most valuable player" and the time that i spend using it during the growing season runs into the many hundreds of hours. Keeping it razor sharp, I slice the weeds off very quickly before the weeds grow large. 4:53 Yay! I found it with a 10 minute Google search what I read in a book 45 years ago: Vita Sackville West that famous English gardener whose writngs went throughout the civilized world wrote this: “Gardening is largely a question of mixing one sort of plant with another sort of plant, and of seeing how they marry happily together; and if you see that they don’t marry happily together, then you must hoick one of them out and be quite ruthless about it. That is the only way to garden.” ucanr.edu/blogs/USS/index.cfm?tagname=hoick I myself tend to be too merciful with plants, oftentimes, I should engage the shovel and move plants or outright destroy the noxious ones. Really, if we fail to do that, our garden begins to take on a rather unsatisying, accidental look. The charm of the English cottage garden is that it is a skillfull balance between accidental, chaos at one extreme and boringly regimented plantings at the other extreme. The well executed English cottage garden LOOKS natural and unplanned, but really it is quite planned and nothing is accidental. My own advise regarding your muscari is that when done blooming, rubber band the foliage so that it does not sprawl everywhere completely covering your bed, once the leaves yellow, dig them up, choose whatever you want to see a year from now and plant them in a pleasing manner in the bed where they were, and take the remainder of them and plant them somewhere at the outermost boundary of your property. They DO look pleasing, but they are at the point of holding the entire bed hostage. The word "hoick" a uniquely English word. Is the word still used or does it sound old, outdated and stilted to use the word? My galaxy 10 clock shows it to be 2:15 in the morning in London, sweet dreams!

Hi Darren, it is really exquisite to view your garden. As per my knowledge the upper branches received more sunlight than the lower ones which could be the reason behind unopened buds of your Magnolia.

The garden is looking fantastic darren. I can see your magnolia has done the same as mine at the bottom. I haven't had 1 flower on the stellata at all. George Henry and magnolia susan have made it through so far, and the yellow bird usually flowers very late so sometimes avoids the frosts, so I'm hopeful

Hi Darren, are you planning to go back to spraying roses this year? I am torn. Some of my roses died to the ground…:/

@darren-harwood 3 ай бұрын
Hey, lovely! No, I won’t be spraying my roses. I don’t like any type of sprays that can harm wildlife or even put my own health at risk. If my roses die, I will replace with something else. How many roses did you lose this time? :/ xx

@@darren-harwood that’s a very good advice! It’s true if it’s not disease resistant then it should go All the ones I planted last spring (April in North Carolina) All the ones I planted in the previous fall are perfectly fine! I would say about 15, I have 55 total. I do see some new growth so they aren’t dead, they are just going to take time to get established again and are going to bloom later

Here in Ohio, I must "bury" my rose plants during January and February because when the temperatures go to 10 degrees and lower, then the sun shines on the canes, they get sunscalded and die to the ground. Not likely that you have that problem in North Carolina, but it is something that you need to be aware of. My deep joy for 30 years is to plant old heirloom style rose plants. I am aiming for the 1890s to 1920s look and the more fragrance the better. Many of my roses are old heirloom types like my Common Moss Rose that dates back to late 1700s, my Souvenir de la Malmaison is one that Napoleon found growing on the island of Bourbon, also I have a few David Austin roses and a few Kordes roses. I LOVE the old cabbage rose/Redoute form roses like Earth Angel, also my Chllotilde Soupert dating back to the 1920s. I just love old Victorian era everything, and that drew me into old roses. I get going talking roses and I can't shut up, so I'd best quit writing now. Nobody that I know appreciates my "problem" so I must vent to those who do. A cloud of fragrance around our 1890s house is my constant pursuit.@@Kamila_q

@@rareandwonderfull hi, cold isn’t a problem here, I stopped spraying (mostly need oil) my roses in the fall and black spot was everywhere. The ones that were not established died to the ground, all canes got diseased. I wonder what the garden is going to look like this year ehhhh it sounds like you have a gorgeous garden❤️🥰

Hi Kamila, I hope that you find a solution to the blackspot trouble. I wonder if you are in a low, valley type situation like I am where the cool, moist nigh air sinks down into and feeds funguses with it's moisture? Only one rose plant of mine got black spot, it was Francois Rabellait, it was so late in the season that it gave the plant very little trouble. I think that copper compounds destroy the black spot fungus. I want to study more about that. Powdery mildew terrible afflicts my Souvenir de la Malmaison, right now it is growing strong, I keep it in a massive pot and drag it into the cold room for wnter, good weather days, out it goes. Fraser Valley roses owner recommends potassium carbonate for that. I love my old, vintage type roses, I hope that you have success this summer! @@Kamila_q
