My English Garden is near the coast in North-West England, 1/3 of an acre (including the house) Zone 9a with sandy soil.

Greetings from Kentucky Paul. Your patio area looks great. I love all the hostas in pots. I actually potted a "Patriot" hosta last week in set in my shade border. My patio is in full sun. I have several hostas in the ground. Lucky for me slugs and snails are not a problem in my area. However, I am battling the dreaded Japanese Bettle right now with my roses though. It's always something! Happy gardening from the US, James

Hi, re snails and slugs eating hostas, I lightly boil a few garlic cloves, drain the water and pour through a fine seive. When cold transfer solution to a spray bottle and apply to the hostas. Very cheap, organic and safe to use with pets and children. It works too, they hate it!

Love the shot of the two birds at the beginning Paul. You are lucky to have a hedgehog in your garden. I haven't seen one for years yet they were quite common when I was a child. I have a fox which visits and he comes right up to my patio doors and I once saw him on my shed roof of all places. He stood there for about five minutes and just had a look at his surroundings. Have you still got your robin?

@paultsworld 14 күн бұрын

Nothing like watching parents feeding chicks! I was really pleased when my cameras picked up a hedgehog last year and now it visits at least 3 times a night. Ha, foxes love sunbathing on shed roofs! My robin is OK and I see him now and then but he disappeared when I went away on holiday - even though a neighbour came each day to feed him. I think he’s sulking but I’m sure he’ll be back…hope so.

I love your patio, not to mention the house, of course! Everything looks great, even without scientific names ;-) The nighttime footage is really interesting. Most people have recently been fighting with slugs, snails, aphids etc. So have I. Last night and the night before my garden was "visited" by a number of wild boar, I suppose piglets rather than adults judging by the size of the hole they made in my fence. We've mended the fence but we can't "reinforce" the whole perimiter. The damage is relatively minor, they "hoovered" all the fallen apples for which I'm quite grateful!

Hello Paul, I enjoyed this video very much.Wonderful to see the wildlife enjoying the bounty you provide,especially the little hedgehog. A quick question,I noticed your euonymus by the pond had a few stems whose leaves were not variegated. Will they eventually become variegated and if not do you prune them out. I planted one after seeing yours and I notice the same thing on mine.,just wondering whether to prune or leave it alone.

@paultsworld 14 күн бұрын

Hi Douglas, good question about the green leaves on the euonymus. This happens with all sorts of variegated shrubs and trees. I find that any reverted-to-green growth is more vigorous and doesn’t change to variegation. So simply trace the growth back as far as you can and cut it off. I do this all the time and it makes for a nicer looking plant.

So I am thinking, I'll split my hostas and put them in pots and hope the deer don't come up on my patio.

I’d love to see some deer here - but only very well behaved ones!

You don’t want deer Paul. They eat my huge hosta in one snack!

@martiknapp762 I’d like to get a video of that! I’m pretty safe as there are no deer on the peninsula where I live.

Hi, can you please let me know how do you take care bay plant? Do you put outside in summer and inside in winter?

Hello, I leave the bay out all year - I'm in zone 9a. In the Summer I put it on the patio and the Winter I move it to the front of the house next to a sunny wall. It's always a little warmer up against the house. It has survived my Winters although as you can see, the terracotta pot is breaking up because of the frost!
