Garden Tour of a Mature Shade Garden | Gardening with Creekside
Join me for a garden tour of my Mama's mature shade garden filled with a wide variety of hostas, hydrangeas, and other shade-loving perennials and shrubs. What makes this garden even more unique is that there is no irrigation, yet it is lush and thriving. Without a doubt, this is my favorite garden to visit!

Your Mom's home and garden should be featured in a Southern Living magazine which features earthy farm houses
Goldfish in water barrels is simply genius! The garden is absolutely beautiful. She is clearly a student of her own garden & an excellent problem solver. Lessons everywhere. Thank you (& her) for sharing.
Now, this is a "Fairy Garden." Absolutely beautiful and magical!! I love how she uses wood pieces in her garden! I could sit for hours in her garden. It's just peaceful and relaxing to see.
I’m at a loss for words, truly! What a lovely, lovely garden! Peace for the soul, Jenny!
Thank you Jenny for showing your Mom’s garden again. I have been waiting for this magical and beautiful garden tour .I love how nature just shines through it. It is God’s beauty at it’s best. Please give your mom and dad a big thank you. 🌻🐝
Oh how I love seeing your mama’s garden! It is so lush and natural. I love the whimsical nature of it. The tree trunk table is gorgeous. The lifetime of work she has put into this garden is so apparent. Tell her thank you so much for sharing it with us❤️
I love seeing your Mom's garden. So beautiful!! I had my notebook out taking notes like I was back in school (that's been a few year or decades). I did not realize your Mom's house was so close to yours. I am a hydrangea, fern loving girl so your Mom's garden is right up my alley. Thank her for allowing us to drool over it.
Your momma’s garden is absolutely beautiful. I always enjoy seeing it. Thank you for sharing.💜🧡💜
I can tell that you are fully aware of how blessed you are to spend that special quality time with your momma doing something that BOTH of you love and cherish. I pray you both have many more years together enjoying each other's company. I LOVE hearing you talk about your sweet momma.❤

Thank you so much!
I have enjoyed every moment of your video today. I have cried through the whole thing thinking about the beautiful moments you have shared with your mama. What a great heritage to have been groomed with such a love for plants and how to store the knowledge to repeat many of the same in your beautiful gardens. I recall of my childhood remembering the gorgeous blue hydgrangers at my home. This has been one of my favorite videos yet. Thank you for giving so much of yourself and your precious mama. May God bless your family. This was a blessing today.

Jenny I love your mama’s whimsical ideas. Her garden is beautiful.
I think I would pay to sit out there and read a book for a few hours. Absolute peace and serenity. ❤
What a treat to view your Mama's garden. Her method of labelling is genius!🌱💚
I so love your mama's space. I'm NC 8A. She gardens like i would absolutely like to achieve someday. My cottage garden is a work in progress for 5 yrs now. Im slowly getting my spots of shade. Started out full sun everywhere, but slowly am getting more shade in certain spots. I too use things in nature as accents, planters, risers, etc. Thank you for another tour. It's so gorgeous
A huge thank you to your mom and dad for sharing their gardens with us!
I always love your mama's garden, thank you for another tour, please tell your mama thank you too.

Personally, I prefer this garden over a formal planned garden. It’s such a magical place!!! I bet she had to really watch for the sun patches to be able to plant some of those plants such as the roses.
Wow! Not even through the entire video yet and your momma's gardens are full of whimsy and magic. I garden in about 99% sun and you were right, this is so inspiring! Such beauty all around 💗

I fully recognize that and have no problem with it! Although keep in mind that comparison is the thief’s of joy and her garden has been developed over 45 years and mine 18 😉
Every turn in her garden you find a surprise! I do enjoy visiting her garden.
Magnificent! Love all that you said about gardening with your Mama. Very special! She has really cool ideas and I love how it all comes together with pots, ornaments, rain barrels, and the "using what you have" things. Unique and beautiful!
Yay! Finally back to Mimi’s garden!!! Love her style and conditions. She certainly has the eye for what works. 👍🌿

I think so too!
Stunning garden that your mom (and dad) have created! And obviously still a garden in progress, there is a totally different energy to visiting a garden that is always being tinkered with, and a formal one that is meant to be static. Thank you and your mama for sharing with us!
My very favorite garden!! Thank you Mama for sharing with us.

Loved seeing your mother’s garden. Such an inspiration.
Love your mom's gardens. Yellow roses were my mom's favorite too. We might have to steel her water barrel with gold fish for our barrel. Live it
Wow Jenny I did not put 2 and 2 together before and realize that your property is adjacent to your mamas property. I love that . Her garden is such a delight and so absolutely wonderful
I enjoyed this tour tremendously. I try to emulate natural gardens and I am happy to say I am succeeding. My space is just a fraction of your mom’s space but I am loving the results of my efforts. Your mom’s garden is so peaceful! Loved it much. Thanks for the tour!🥰🌈
So beautiful. Thank you both, Jenny & Momma, for sharing ❤️
Love your mom's garden bc of all the personality it has!!
OMGoodness, your sweet mama's garden is just beautiful!
How beautiful! Expect to see to see little faeries peeking out from her delightful plants. Such a place of peace.
I have goldfish in my pond and they get big fast feeding on mosquito larvae. The only time mosquitoes can be useful. Mama has a beautiful garden!💙
Your Mama’s garden is so beautiful!
Love, love, love the whimsy in you mom's garden.
That’s just absolutely the most beautiful garden I’ve ever seen
What a beautiful mature relaxing garden!
What a beautiful, peaceful garden. 👍
Mimi’s garden is amazing. It is more beautiful than other garden tours I have been to. I can’t imagine what it looks like in person. Even though I like sun loving plants there is something to be said about shade gardens. Thank you for the amazing tour.
I love shade gardens so much! Your momma has really outdone herself. I have many areas of shade, woodland garden, but my plants are only 4-5 years old. I’m excited about what is to come, especially when I see that garden.
So beautiful and whimsical, I bet little gnomes and fairies live in this garden:) Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your Mamas garden . This has inspired me sooo much with plantings and garden art. Love her take on the style she has. I am just now 62 and have started my own garden and it is true you will move, plant and move again until you find the right spots for everything . My yard is almost all shade. Except for afternoon sun which is too hot for baby plants. But I how to have a garden as nice as hers some day!
So beautiful and inspiring!! Thank you for sharing!!
Your mom’s garden is exquisite. Thank you for sharing. Does she have any azaleas or rhododendron? I was born and raised in Raleigh and now live in a small town south of there. Every year I keep adding plants but have a long way to go. Your mom’s garden gives me inspiration.
Your mommas garden is beautiful.🌸💚🙃
Incredible garden! Next time I visit the nursery I need to look over to the sun boarder garden, I didn’t realize you were that close. What a treasure to see. ❤ Thanks for sharing Mimi. 😊
Thank you and mama for the beautiful tour her area is breath taking I love it
This garden is magical 😊😊🌸🌹🌱💜 so so pretty. Thank you for sharing. Just beautiful!!!!!
😍😍😍 woodland gardens are my favorite!! Gorgeous! Fun strolling through your momma’s space!!
Love your Mama’s gardens…you are so lucky to have her so close and to be able to share your love of gardening. Thanks for sharing.
Jenny I haven't seen all of your momma's garden yet but WOW she has at least 2 green thumbs 👍👍 I absolutely love how she has filled it with all of the pockets of different colors of green and all of the pots and whimsical structure that she has collected over the years. Absolutely Gorgeous Mimi 🤗💓💕💞
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love seeing your Mama’s garden. It is so very helpful to see the varieties you can grow in dry shade or when you don’t have irrigation. It is also helpful to see established plants. Please thank your Mama for letting us ‘visit’. It’s always such a delight.
Enjoying the tour of your mother's garden so many great ideas. Thank you and your mother for sharing, hope to see more. This will be a repeat watch.
OMG How could I allow myself to miss this??! I have been waiting on another visit to Mommas garden!! I love woodland and shade gardens....such depth, beauty and character!
Your Moms garden is beautiful and you are blessed to share this garden love with her.
Oh I so want this! I love the peace and beauty!
Absolutely love your mother's garden! The older I get, the more I appreciate shade gardens.
Love your mama’s garden. So many ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Jenny, your parents garden is absolutely gorgeous! People would pay to tour it.💖
Just a beautiful garden! Love it❤
Loved the tour, Jenny! SO special to share the love of gardening with your mom♥️ It's funny that you mentioned hosting a garden tour. I hosted a garden tour in my garden for my local garden club, members only, about 60 people, just a few days ago. Sandhills NC zone 8A. It was intimidating to be asked to do it, but I'm so glad that I did! I have learned so much from you and Laura about garden design. The best comments were those that said they were inspired by my ideas to go home and try new things! It felt great to answer questions somewhat with confidence after following you and Laura almost from the beginning of your channels. Thank you for your inspiration. Btw, my Aquapot from Creekside was absolutely stunning. Just Baby Tut and pink dragon wing begonias. It's massive! Your advice before I planted it was excellent. 🥰
I am so happy to see this garden again!! ❤❤
I would never get anything done. I could not leave this beautiful garden. Thank you for sharing!
My favorite,always look forward to seeing her garden ….I have shade envy because I have so little! Thanks 💚🌿🍃
It's so nice to see full size shrubs that go wild. let's you know what they're really capable of. Gorgeous gardens, Mimi.
Such an inspiration garden, vision and I want everyone of those garden art pieces -absolutely lovely
This is the 3rd time in 24 hours that I am watching this!!! I absolutely adore this garden! Your Mama is my kind of gal!! I have gotten so many ideas and inspiration from this one video!! Clearly my favorite video!! I adore your yard as well but this is so fairytale to me! Thank you and thank you to your folks as well!
I was hoping we would get a tour of your momma's gardens.They are amazing. So enjoyed this. Thank you.

You are blessed being able to garden with mom. All i got from mine was toxicity and the one compliment was that I was gifted for growing plants lol
I ❤️ this garden!! SO BEAUTIFUL 😍 and peaceful. Our gardens are truly a reflection of our own personality, making each one so unique and intimate. Thank you for sharing again. I wish I had more shade to garden in!!
So gorgeous! True, neighbors and friends love sharing plants when they divide.
And please thank your mama for this treat.
Absolutely beautiful 😍 just ethereal I was waiting for the fairys !
Your mommas property is such a beautiful, magical, serene place . Such a treat to visit. Thank you Jenny !!!
Wow your mom’s property is gorgeous! I love the goldfish in the rain barrel idea.😊
Oh wow! I so enjoyed this tour of your Mom’s gardens. Just stunning. I can see where you get your knack from. Tell her thank you for sharing it with us.
I always enjoy walks through your Mom’s garden. Please thank her for sharing with us. I just love the little rooms in her garden. It feels like that if even some else is out in the garden, you can go find your own peaceful space in there. Great idea for the plant markers! 😂The Toffee Twist Carex looks like David Bowie’s 80’s hair! I love it. Lol
Mama's garden is fantastic but you are the star of the show! So generous, fun and lovable! She must love you so much!
I love whimsy. When I had a mature maple tree cut down, I asked the forester to save me some pieces. He left me the section where the tree forked (main reason I had it removed). I turned it upside down and it looks like a man's lower torso standing knee-deep in the dirt. I plan on getting a thrifted belt to screw onto the top (waist) and move the stump to my front yard so neighborhood kiddos can sit in it when they head to the nearby park. 😆
I love love love this garden. What joy it brings me ❤. Thank you and your mom for sharing the different seasons of it. A true joy and blessing to see.
Fabulous……just like the gardener!
I love all the information that you Shane all the time. I always watch all your videos and did learn a lot❤❤thank u Jenny
Jenny, Mimi's garden is just so beautiful. She should be in Garden Gate Mag tour. Thank you, and Mimi, for sharing. I really do love it.
Gardening is a very very therapeutic hobby at least for me😂 Thank you for the garden tour, loving it!❤ Regards from The Netherlands!❤
This tour was a TREAT as you said😊
A breath of fresh air in the shade garden. Does it mitigate the NC humidity? What a natural paradise 🌸🌲🌺
Perfect timing...I was just telling my husband on the weekend about your Mum's garden and telling him I would show him the video the next time there is a video as we are creating a shade garden! ❤️🌿 Thank you to you and your Mum for sharing!
Thank you so much Jenny and your lovely Mama, so beautiful, calming and a feast for eyes and soul! 🇨🇦
Enjoyed seeing your Mama’s garden.
What a video! This garden is stunning! There are so many great ideas in this video. From unique plant tags to goldfish in the rain water containers. Truly one of a kind!
Such a beautiful garden! Absolutely love everthing about your parents garden. I especially love the paths. It makes you want to keep exploring, to see what's around the bend. Please, thank your parents for this lovely tour, and thank you Jenny for taking us along. God bless.❤
Mama's garden is looking awesome
This is one of my favorite videos you do. Please thank your mom for us. I now have an Oakleaf Hydrangea in my yard because of her. My hope is that it gets as big and beautiful as hers.
Jenny, I have a horrible problem with voles. My husband helped me try to fashion some wire protection from hardware cloth. I had no idea that you could buy them pre-made. Thank you for linking that company.
It’s always a treat to visit your mom’s garden. Such a very peaceful space. I’m wondering what variety her lavender is. Phenomenal? Thanks so much for taking us!
