Everything looks LUSH and BEAUTIFUL!!! I planted 30 Showy Milkweeds from seed and only have 1 survivor! I agree… this is the hardest thing I have ever grown. And i don't know anyone who sells them. Oh well at least we both have a surving plant! Yay!!! Awesome Tour Janey! 🧡❤️💜💙💚
Good morning. What a very cute addition to the family. Love the name it really fits the bunny. With most blueberries or any type of shrub fruit it will take about 3 growing seasons before you can really see it take off with fruit. The side yard to me looks like you just looked after the plants that needed to be cut back. There is nothing wrong the way it looks. Thank you for taking us on the tour. You have done well and keep going. Have a wonderful rest of your day my friend.
I love that you share the beautiful and the not so beautiful as well. It lets us know that the garden isn’t always perfect and has stages of transition.
Have you considered moving the two potted plants in front of your green house to the empty spot next to the honey suckle trellis just to get a visual of what it could look like with potted plants on each end? Love your channel!

Totally agree! They look like perfect heights for balance….
Beautiful, I would love to see where you keep the bunny, I’m thinking about getting one
Everything is looking great! I knew there was a reason I liked you, you're a bunny person 🐇I raised pet rabbits and did rabbit rescue for 30 years bunnies are the best ❤
How beautiful!!! I had no idea hummingbirds made a noise when you get too close to them! I love them!!
Good morning I would Spray paint my bench and my chairs white and cream pillows 🌸🌼🌺
As you know by now I love your videos Janey. I did find the front yard tour way to detailed and long!
Could they be Monarch eggs that were laid on the Milkweed??? 🤷♀️
Everything looks beautiful!! I love the rose trellis and white bench idea!! Can’t wait to see it💕!!
Always love seeing your beautiful gardens! I'm in zone 8b and Pentas do VERY well here. I usually plant them in the ground, but this year I planted one in a pot. Unfortunately, our unrelenting triple digit temps and little rain has taken its toll even on this extremely hardy plant! 😕 It's hanging on though, LOL. What a treasure that adorable pot is your daughter made for you!! If you haven't already, consider having her (and her friend?) sign the bottom and/or put the year on it. Years from now, when you're an empty nester, like me, it will help to remind you which child made it for you and what year. So sweet!! 🌺🌺🌺 Oh! And, how could I forget to mention that SWEET bunny! Too cute!! 🐰😍
I just saw a video about MILKWEED that said all milkweeds have these bugs - you can either leave them on as they will not harm the plant, or gently wash them away - they will actually attract ladybugs :) 👍😃👍🌸
Clicked for the bunny! I know Nor Cal/Davis is super Ag, since I grew up there, so I learned only as an adult what EXCELLENT house-pets rabbits are (especially after spay/neuter) as an adult, when my sister got one and then moved in with me. Lizzie (Elizabeth Bunnet) slept in her custom hutch in the living room, and stayed in there (or with a larger pen around it) when she was home alone, but when we were home, she loved to come check out what was up on the couch and get some pets, get zoomies running around the living room rug, or explore new baskets, boxes, or her tunnel. She didn’t like the laminate floor much, so we never had to worry about her sneaking into our bedrooms to play her favorite game (“under”). Buns are the perfect apartment pet. She died this year at the ripe age of probably 14! I am sure Hermione will befriend the cat, if not the dog too, because they are social animals and like being bonded with a best friend or two besides their people. But if you decided to get a bun friend for her, check out any local bun rescues. Rabbits multiply like well, rabbits, so there are always too many buns out there. The rabbit rescues tend to know a lot about the buns they take in, about their different personalities or temperaments, medical needs, etc, and my local rescue offers “bunny matchmaking/dating” to help owners with pair bonding their existing bun, which can be challenging to DIY! They also have really affordable boarding for when we travelled and an excellent shop with several types of farm fresh hay, way better and cheaper than the pet store stuff!
Everything is soooo beautiful. I can't wait for summer. Your garden is such an inspiration xxx
Oh the bunny 🐰 is adorable 🥰 I love that you have a leash for him ❤️❤️ so cute ☺️ I LOVE your idea with the roses on the trellis and the standards in the pots !!!! That will be absolutely gorgeous 😍 I purchased my first two standards last year and put them on each side of my arbor going into one of my gardens and then have a peach colored climbing rose on the arbor ♥️♥️♥️♥️ I love it 🥰 as always everything looks beautiful 😍 have a wonderful day friend ❤️❤️. Oh……tell the girls they did an awesome 👏 job on the little pot 👏👏👏👏
So cute!!! Please keep her from the pool!! Just heard about a bunny drowning in a pool!! Would be horrible!! Such a beautiful garden!! SUPER BIG HUGS AND MUCH LOVE
Hermione is super cute! Also good reason to keep her from wandering is so she doesn't fall in the pool. You can buy a doggie playpen to put out in the grass so she can enjoy herself safely while you guys are in the backyard

Great idea! Also works great around their hutch to live them more play or lounge space, or for hanging out in a non-bunny-proofed room to be near you!
Me again. I think the idea of the climbing rose garden with the white trellising will be spectacular!!! 🌟🌟🌟
Just love your channel so much! I really appreciate your authenticity and show casing the relatable realities of gardening. So refreshing and encouraging. Can’t wait to see how your space continues to evolve!
Love the bunny🐰
Supertunias are beautiful beasts! Maybe yellow lantana if you want to try that recipe again next year. Tell the girls great job on the pot!
It was your honeysuckle that brought you to me. I am thankful you put that honeysuckle on “Garden Answer”. What a treasure you and your channel are.
Hello, I always admire your uniqueness, thanks for sharing this wonderful video, keep up the good work my friend, good luck!
Gorgeous Janey and Hermione is super cute xxxxx
That limoncello mix has my heart and I love the Bordeaux as well
Thank you for the beautiful plant pot girls, it’s absolutely beautiful…. I love it ❤️💛💙🧡💜💚🙏🏼💐🙏🏼💐
Going to be gorgeous in that corner area and yes I have always read that you are suppose to enjoy your gardens as much from inside through the windows as outside. The oak tree garden is one of those I literally love and makes me feel like I'm in a park. It has mini hostas up to the tree, astilbes on the front corners, a mass planting of the sure fire red begonias and in the background behind the tree I have a beautiful drift of reblooming yellow day Lillies. My husband who passed away in fall of 2020 loved red flowers and you can easily see that garden from our bedroom so he loved looking at that garden. He started to get more disabled with his ability to walk so he spent a lot of time enjoying that garden. We live on a large corner lot right in town so I would take him in the car and drive around the corner so he could see the entire yard and all the gardens I do each year since he couldn't walk that much later on I also have a white bird bath in that garden and a beautiful statue of a young boy with his dog.
Thank you for the reminder that everything doesn't have to be perfect!! I'm an OCD perfectionist and a new gardener, so learning that has been a challenge!! Thank you for sharing your gardening journey with us!!
Your yard looks beautiful! I can’t wait to see the the finished shade corner garden. What a great idea! 🐰M
AWWW what an adorable bunny!!! I love her coloring! Just so stinking cute! 😍😍😍
Everything is beautiful especially your pots! I am loving my sparkling amethyst verbena too one of my favorites this year, I live in zone 6 so only an annual for me. I'm a new gardner trying to learn to be patient and not stress when things don't work out lol!
Your garden is beautiful, new bunny is precious and your new pot is spectacular !

ZUCCHINI is a never fail vegetable to try.
I had a jasmine growing around an ac enclosure that I had to trim all the time! But so worth it! So pretty and smelled wonderful!
Thank you, Shay and sweet friend. The pot is lovely. I’m looking forward to following its blooming Dig, Plant, and Water journey❤️
Everything looks amazing. Definitely aphids on the milkweed. Mine is covered. I'm new to growing it but I decided to just leave the aphids and other bugs (ladybugs, lacewings and wasps)seem to be taking care of them. I've had a ton of monarch eggs on them and just released my first two females yesterday so I'm glad I decided not to spray. Really enjoy watching your progress. :)
Beautiful👍👍👍👍
Oh Janey that bunny!! So cute! Happy birthday to your girl! My youngest also turned 9 this summer ☀️ I love the idea of the roses and trellis on your fence with the bench and limelight pots! 😍
Oh my, Janey, that bunny is too cute for words. Here in Southeast, FL, the plants are definitely stressed by the heat. We humans are too. The humidity is 73% right now, temp is 84 with a high of 93. It is 9:30 in the morning. The heat just sucks the energy out of this 70 year old gardener. LOL. Loved the tour and I am so in love with the Sparkling Amethyst verbena. I am going to be putting that in my garden next season as well as in pots. It has been such a great performer in your garden. As always, thank you for sharing.
Good Morning Janey! I Love your Backyard, Soo inviting!! I had Aphids on my Plumarias & got some Marigolds, it worked for me. Don't give up a Mandavilla, I had one that got over 5 ft on a trellis. They take 6-8 hours of 🌞! They are Gorgeous!! Love the Bunny!! Too Cute. Love & Hugs from Yuma, Az. 👍🐾🐾🐾🐾🌸🌺💕💕💕😘
The spots on the milkweed could be monarch eggs
Oleander aphids on milkweed. Bright yellow. Squish with gloves on.

One video, a guy used tape around a pencil to collect up the aphids from his plants. In another, someone vacuumed them up off their milkweed! I’ve read that the butterfly eggs are more firmly stuck on, so a blast of water, etc will knock aphids off but not the eggs?
Hi, beautiful garden 😀 and cute cute bunny ❤️🥰 about your cucumber. They contain 95% water witch means they need a lot of water!! Pepper dont and you have them next to eat other. Also, they don’t really need full sun but heat and no strong wind.. but no full sun ☀️ the leaves witch are full of water crisp up /get fried.. but a-lot of water is a must 😊
In your shade garden area, do a container garden, that way you can try different things to see what works there and it’s easy to switch things up! The climbing rose idea is good too!
REALLY LOVE YOUR BUNNY I RAISED ONE HUNDRED BUNNY'S JUST FOR PETS LOVE THEM THIS WAS 1970 ON MY GRANDMA'S FARM
A really beautiful vine that loves partial sun and has a wonderful scent is my favorite "Stephanotis floribunda". It has waxey, bell-shaped flowers and shiny green leaves. They use the flowers in wedding posies and hair styles. Check it out......hoping you can get one in California. Another climber is black eyed Suzy.....you can get in pink, red, orange, white and it's easy to grow and doesn't grow crazy like honeysuckle or plumbago. Cheers, Jo. NZ
Listen to you...stoked..spoken like a true Cali girl 😊 I would love to see the hummingbirds, we don't get the pretty ones on the east coast. You could put a plant stand by the greenhouse, it would give you something to sit plants on, while in "storage". I watch a girl in Dublin...Dainty Diaries...she has one with her potted strawberries on it. LOL, I bet the honeysuckle was thanking you while you were butchering it. Nice tour, everything, well most everything looks beautiful 😊 Awwww, how sweet, thank them for me, and let them know I think it's beautiful.
Your yard is absolutely beautiful, I love it. Those are aphids on milkweed plant. I believe milkweed is a magnet for them
Oh yeah, for sure those are aphids. I had a TON of those guys on my milkweed. I squished them but they still persisted when I forgot to repeat squish. Ii was so bad I thought they had killed my plant since I didnt know milkweed died off in the winter (before I knew anything about plants). But they sprang back the next year better than ever and I had an army of ladybug larvae arrive for the aphid show and nature found a wonderful balance.
Yup that's yellow aphids on your milkweed. I have them on my plants too. It sucks that we can't spray them. I tried to spray them with water but they keep coming back...

I just saw a video about milkweed - they will always have these aphids but will not harm the milkweed - you can shower them off the milkweed or leave them on - plus they attract 🐞 ladybugs!
I LOVE your vision for the corner with the climbing roses. It will be gorgeous! I feel like the fence supports that look like redwood(?) stain need to be painted white so you have only shades of white against that beautiful weathered gray of the fence boards. You may have already planned to do that, but I wanted to mention it.
Climbing roses on a trellis sounds great! Antique white paint for the diamonds and bench would be my choice.
Love it! Very beautiful, great inspiration!
oh how I love these garden tours!!
Soooo excited for the climbing roses!
Adorable bunny!
Love the pot. Such happy colors. Plant it up soon, maybe alyssum. Thank the girls for me.
Wow! I love the idea you decided on for the corner garden! It's going to be spectacular!
For the ballet slippers: Im zone 10a, but i have one about three years old, and i wish i put it somewhere else because of how big it got. Hopefully before you plant it, Put it in an area that has lots of soil moisture, It will LOVE it! so if you have an area that you find the soil stays wetter choose that, mine also is about 4 feet tall now, and It may make you want to put it somewhere else than the front of the flower bed just because of it, it also is probably 3 feet wide. Its a bit like a clematis in that it likes its feet in the shade and its head in the sun.. Just wanted to tell you in case you change your mind or didn't know as im a pretty similar zone to you, and it may help! but you also know your garden better than anyone☺
Beautifull garden and oh my what a super cute bunny too thankyou for sharing xxx
Beautiful looking garden Excellent video
came here for the garden tour and got a bonus haha! Bunny cuteness❤ thanks for taking the time to share your journey with us!
For your fence area. I got inspiration from Linda Vater. She uses heavenly bamboo (nandina) to camouflage the fence and then underplants with other perrenials. Nandina has year round interest and it does well in our zone 9b. Roses are beautiful but they spend much of the year as sticks in the garden. That's why I'm cutting back on roses in my garden. I am trying to go for more evergreen plants. I love your honeysuckle. I'm thinking of trying to train something like that on my patio posts.
Your garden is so beautiful 🌺🌸🌹
Beautiful
Hermione is absolutely adorable and so fluffy. I love her colouring. Of course your back garden is looking beautiful and I also love those pink balls of coloured pots. Good design concept to have the white diamond trellis and climbing rose. Love from sunny Sydney, Australia.
Love everything Janey! I agree with you on the supertinia blue skies. I’m in Sac and they get full afternoon sun and the beautiful color fades so much.
Congrats in the bunny
Awww the bunny is absolutely adorable. My daughter’s birthday is also August 13th. I just love your garden
I’m sure those cute rabbit feet will bring good luck to your gorgeous gardens! 🍀

Lovely Janey! 🤞 for your dogwood! 😊. I’ve never heard of helmet head in tomatoes, is that a thing? What a lovely little birthday present for Sadie, Hermoine is too adorable and that little planter is beautiful Shae, well done!🇨🇦
Muy buenos dias
😍 Love your idea for the corner garden bed. Can hardly wait to see it. Your backyard looks beautiful 😍
Hi. Janie, I think those bugs on your milk weed are butterfly eggs 🦋. What I do when I find a lot of ants is mix Borax and sugar in a jar I keep on hands at all time. When I see the mounds are a lot of ant I sprinkle this mixture around. I hope that's helpful
That bunny looks so adorable! I know vegetables aren't your specialty, but which variety or plants can you recommend for a first time vegetable gardener?
Yes, 3 more pots to balance the garden. Everything looks beautiful 😊
Your garden is gorgeous.

Thank you Linda 💗
Also I used to get those yellow afids on my milkweed but never did anything about it. Plant seemed fine. Also noticed once the afids arrived the Caterpillars came soon after.
Janey, love your videos and your sunny personality. I was wondering, did you put the pool in ?
Good Morning Janey! Loved the video this morning. Mornings are just the best outside in the garden. I was a little prune happy yesterday and it pains me to do so but looks much better. I can honestly say I am so excited for you....new gardens and your inspiration sounds incredible. I can't wait to see it progress. Happy Gardening everyone!
Your videos bring me so much happiness and inspire/motivate me. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous gardening with us. I heard you say you are growing zone 9b. I am too, but in FL. I find it interesting what you can grow, but I can't. I'm curious how low your temps get in July. Currently here in FL, we get down to the high 70's, but it feels so much warmer than that with the humidity. Thanks again for sharing your passion with us.
Beautiful back yard!!! Adorable bunny 🐰 What does Stanley think of the bunny?
Hi Janie, the Mandavilla will do great if you’ll give it more sun, I’m in 8a and have mine in morning to mid afternoon sun
I live in So Cal 10b. I have native milkweed. Several monarch caterpillars this year. It has gotten pretty big now. But I have gotten aphids too. I just hosed them off. Didn’t want to spray, I was afraid it might be detrimental to butterflies.🐛🦋
Your yard looks great. I don’t think you can kill honeysuckle. I have been trying for years at my Mom’s. I love the new bunny. She is so cute, the bunny too. Have a wonderful day.
❤️ everything. Are Bobos good as cut hyndrangeas?
Janie, have you given any thought to using stone under the bench and chairs! The shape of the bed line would be beautiful a grey stone would be so perfect
Omg I was literally looking at bunnies yesterday.. so many of this type for sale around here! (Orville area) I was looking into using the droppings as fertilizer! It’s supposed to be great! I’m convinced I need to now! She’s so adorable!!

Your garden is beautiful! Thank you for sharing! This year I grew squash vertically following next level gardening and, holy cow, I will never grow squash any other way. I have four squash in a four sqft area and no problems of pests or fungus. That’s saying something in my zone 7b Virginia humidity!

Oh Elizabeth I should try that! I had such trouble with this zucchini this year! Thanks for watching and for the tip!
💚💚💚
Wonderful tour!!! I was wondering if it is worth creating temporary sun protection over your two metal stock tanks? It seems like a nice spot for the tanks in your yard, although is it holding in too much heat for plants to flourish, especially in the peak of summer in California?
The famous honeysuckle espalier! Nooooo! 😂
The bunny is so cute!!! 😃 Love your tours and how everything is evolving. You have so many gorgeous plants! I have watched the progress since you planted them and I feel happy for you. There are always some that suffer more. They would either reboud or die, there is nothing we can do about it 😡😪 I am sure your honeysuckle will bounce back. As to the milkweed, alphids! I have several milkweed plants and they get aphids all the time. They take over them, but I just let them be as they won't harm the plant. Monarchs don't really care. If you want, you can run your fingers along the leaves and squish them. Try to kill all of them though as they are asexual and will quickly reproduce. 😜
Hello Janey if these are eggs and round and yellow than its probably ladybug eggs!
Aphids. I rub them off. Gross, I know. On a different note, regarding your back fence, the rust colored posts and frame, consider painting the posts and structure framing a charcoal color before applying/installing the new white diamond treatment. This will put all the attention on the gorgeousness off the white diamonds. Good luck.
What is the thing that you have your honeysuckle growing on? Did you make it?
❤️
Check out Jes on KZread and especially the video of her sister's cut flower garden. I thought about you and the new land that you are going to be planting. FYI the Summerific hibiscus get pretty big. This was my first year with mine and I was surprised how big it grew.( OOPS! Just watched your Monday plant video and saw that you already got this memo!) I think you picked a good spot for it . I love your videos and garden and I have learned so much!!
Idk if everyone answered you & im too lazy to read comments but plant in water trough is oleander.
Update on the micro tomatoes?
