    I love your videos - thank you for making them. My favourite March job is planting seeds, and least favourite is maintaining the lawn - we are gradually turning more and more of our lawn over to clover for the pollinators not only is it a great nitrogen fixer but the flowers are loved by the bees.

    Thank you Marta, I love your videos. Can you please show in one of your videos how you pressure wash your pebbles in your walkways. That's what I am planning to do and am curious on how you take care of it. Thanks! 🙏💜

    Your garden is gorgeous. I dislike doing my lawn. I have heavy clay soil and the lawn stays boggy for a long time. So I seem to be scarifying in May or June when you really want the grass to be beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your advice

    Hi Marta, Many thanks for another great informative video with great tips. You are always inspiring, always motivating. I’m in Charlotte,NC and we have been experiencing some warmer than usual early spring days so we have a lot of plants waking up and asking for attention. Some of my Hostas are already starting to leaf out and others have already broken ground. Like you I have been tidying up my beds and doing any task I can to get a jump on the Season. I have a lot of Heucheras that always appreciate a little extra grooming as soon as the weather permits. I love looking for signs that the Hostas have broken through the ground. Tidying up their beds gives me a sneak peek at their progress.🥰. Take care and happy growing! 👌🪴

    Hello Marta. Love all your knowledge. I have learned a lot. You are correct about landscape fabric. My garden has done so much better since I pulled all that was put down in this yard before we purchased this property. Compost and mulching, best way to improve soil and suppress weeds. Job in the garden I do not like to do is fertilize. It is dusty and smells bad. I use organic (holly tone and plant tone). I love everything else about gardening. In zone 7b North Carolina, USA.

    Hello. I love your channel, however, could you do a video on what gardening tools you use and favor for your garden? Also, a video on the way you prune roses would be great, but again give a link to the tools you will be using! Great gardening and thanks.

    It has been abnormally warm here in Canada. I only had to shovel twice (Southern Ontario) and it just melted within a few days.

    Hi Marta, love all of your videos and I learn something every time I watch! We just built an enclosed cutting garden with 8 raised beds (to keep out the deer) and we used crushed marble. I was wondering how to clean it. In Spring I love pruning but hate dealing with our row of very large pine trees. Happy Spring from New Jersey!

    Hello Marta! I am a new gardener and I would like to take your advice on not using garden fabric for weed suppressing but instead use mulch and compost like you said you do. What do you use? could you expand more on that subject? thank you and congratulations on your amazing garden!

    Thanks Marta always great information! I'm one that has always used the forsythias blooming as my guide to start most of my pruning especially roses. I would like to know when you do your first feeding of them? Also, would love a video on the seed sowing. Thanks 😊🌼

    Hello Marta, lovely video as always!! 😍. Like yours, my garden is filled with perennials, shrubs, trees and lots of spring bulbs. I also want to start mulching my garden with compost. Do you have a video on this or could you please make one? Also, your borders seem to be quite deep. How do you manage doing your cleanup and adding compost when bulbs are coming up? It’s always a challenge for me. It seems that as soon as the garden debris is unfrozen, bulbs are already growing and I’m afraid to step on them. Thank you from Canada!! 🌸

    Hello Marta, Norway calling! We still have a lot of snow in our garden, so your garden is many months ahead of mine. But I have a question. What stores in Poland are best for shopping trellises and benches like you have in your beautiful garden. I really do like your style, and we go from time to time to Warsaw with car to visit. This summer I would like to take back some garden stuff. Have a wonderful spring!
