Hi from Pennsylvania USA! This is just my style, three or four different kinds of pots filled with airy pinks and purples with a touch of white and yellow. Lovely!

I garden in the ground and containers too. It gets to 105 f easily in the summer in high desert in Utah, US. I can move the plants in containers to shade if it gets to hot. I love arranging them around my sitting areas, and they are wonderful to arrange for fun occasions like an outdoor lunch or tea. To over-winter I bank them against my house, blow leaves on them, fill the gaps with short logs, rolled up cardboard, or paper bags stuffed with leaves. Our overnight winters can be as low as 5 f, and I have been very successful this way. Thanks for the great video, loved your 2 biggest!

Hello! I absolutely love all your beautiful plants! I too love container gardening its great because like you said you can move things around plus i have a smaller backyard so its perfect! Going to the garden center is my happy zone! Happy gardening everyone!

I love my pocket gardens when they are newly planted up and freshly graveled and mulched. But then I also love them when they've gone a bit wild and escaped the confines of their pots. Healthy gardens are in a constant state of flux and all states are appealing.

Nice job! Beautiful!

I loved what you said about "loving learning". Such fun! Now that I'm aging and can't do as much in the garden without days of hobbling around, I'm doing more with native plants. A whole new field to learn about!

Nice to see I'm not the only one that budgets money on a regular basis for plants.....I've been doing it for years.....Going shopping for plants and flowers for my yard is my most favorite thing to do each year......You go crazy with the plants like me.....The more the better.....It's nice to see how other people plant.....It would be pretty boring if we all did it the same way.....I like getting ideas from others.......It looks great!.....Enjoy your beautiful plants while sitting out on your patio.....Thank You for sharing.

love all of your selections and it looks great. Cheers

Oh I laughed about the heat wave in Ireland. I’m in California where it is 100 plus 7 months of the year. I lose so many plants 😮😮😮 love your containers!!!!

It’s a very happy assortment of potted plants.

Check out Claus Dalby(Danish) in English channel great potting ideas especially tulips

This has given me inspiration! I have a fair few pots which are empty, I just lack the courage with what to put in them....looking forward to seeing how they work out!

Love your arrangement’s. I LOVE pots.

This is exactly the kind of confession I needed today

Just found you, liked and subscribed and I’m not halfway through the video! Love your voice, your manner and I haven’t even seen the garden yet! Looking forward to savoring it. Thanks from Florida, USA.

yes know what you mean. I love looking out into the garden and seeing all the colours from the plants.

I had to giggle at the “just for a look”. 😂 That NEVER works!! You know full well we are going to load up! Haha!

Beautiful.. I'm just like you- so excited about creating a cottage garden...😂❤

I love your selection of plants and colors! A cottage garden! Beautiful!

I love container gardens for all the reasons you mentioned! When we moved, we decided to have some low maintenance landscape in ground plants and a lot of container plants and tomatoes.

Utterly delicious....

I love planting up pot combos! So relaxing. Love your work ❤😊

Shopping "just for a look"? Thatʻs me lol Iʻm in Hawaiʻi, so Iʻm very happy to have found your channel!

I love your garden! So pretty in pots!!!!!

You put together gorgeous plant combinations in your containers. I took a few notes so i could copy you in some of mine. Thank you, again, for sharing.

Looks so pretty Karen 🌸 it gives me an idea for my own container Garden section of my yard. Watching from California ☀️

Me, too! Rocky Ford! I can't wait, either. Winter is sure hanging on this year.

Really enjoyed this, Karen. I am mad for a Foxglove but they seem hard to get. But I won't give up!!! Just thought it was worth a mention - Woodies DIY have, what I call, the cart where plants go to die. They are usually about €1 each and all they need is a good drink of water to revive them. I've a gorgeous bed of things from last year all from Woodies! My Lupins are miserable looking at the moment - the flowers have gone and they're all stalky with hairy seed pods. Hoping to save some of these for next year as well. (Did I actually say hairy seed pods?????? Kerrist almighty!)

Beautiful.

@@Lovelygirliebits cottage garden is exactly what i want too and Some salvias sre really drifty/ floaty in the ground. Getting ahead of myself though. The whole place is on a slope and has to be levelled, so next step will be to work on my propagation skills so I don’t lose any favourite plants long term

Awe lass I missed you and wondered why you not been on your blog thing , sorry you been unwell ,hopefully you well on the mend now ,but take care of yourself ,your harvest looks great and bet it’s sooooooo tasty . Get back to full health xxxxxxx❤

It was so frustrating not being able to film and I missed it so much!

So beautiful!😍😍 where did you get all your lovely pots frrom? I think im going to have to try recreate everything you have done. 💗

I have enough plants..says no gardener ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣.. I get in trouble just looking!!..

I'm in Canada and really like this video. I doubt these plants would survive in pots through heavy snow and cold. So I wonder if I put them into my unheated garage this coming winter if they would survive? All my potted hostas come back every year after overwintering in garage. * Note try to find another potting soil, I noticed you are using Miracle gro which is synthetic and toxic. There are lots of organic potting soil and then amend with compost and natural fertilizer.

I am a pot gardener. What I do with old pots I turn them up and put under pots to make them taller

I literally have my entire garden in pots as live in rented property, absolute ballache last year with a hosepipe ban last year 😂

you're not a new gardener just because you've only been doing it for 3 or 4 years, I'm 68 now and I used to be taken down to my dads allotment in my push chair , I've been growing for as long as I can remember but I learn something new everytime I go in the garden and anyone who says they know everything ... steer clear of themthey're full of errr fertiliser. Enjoy your garden. nick

Just wanted to point out that sometimes you mention the VARIETY name, not the plant name. For example, the plant you described as "Geyser White", is actually a GAURA, Geyser White is the variety.
