We here in Michigan in the U.S. went a month with no rain. Then 3 days of downpours! I have several 30 gallon barrels that I filled with rain. Now another 2 weeks of no rain so it's coming in handy. More rain coming starting Friday for a few days and will be collecting it again. My flower and veg gardens are behind due to the never-ending winter we had, followed by a hungry groundhog, and now a hot, dry period. Oh well, the joys of gardening. I loved hearing the sounds of rain and birds in your video. The mirrors look lovely.

I’m in California and tap water contains chlorine and plants do better without it. Even if you water by filling up a watering can and let it sit for ten minutes the chlorine will evaporate so that’s better than directly spraying the plants. But absolutely rain is best. ❤

Lovely looking garden. When I have soil delivered the company asks that I mark where I want it in my driveway with an 'X', works every time. I'll be working on my garden clean up over the next few days: my peonies are done blooming.

RAIN .. Can you send it my way? I collect water but it is already gone. We had 5 minutes of rain today (about 7 drops 😅). So the barrels are still very empty. My roses are blooming at the moment. Your front garden bed is so beautiful - I love it! And all those barrels - it will be amazing! Love from Germany 🤗

My dear Catherine your garden looks amazing. Loved the rain, sounded wonderful. Loved the song as you pulled weeds. You’ve inspired me to do more in my courtyard even though the sunlight is not a full 8 hrs, I’ve planted squash , tomatoes, bell pepper and burp-less cucumber in pots and on Plant dollies for easy movement. Tomatoes and one squash plant seems to be doing ok…lots of herbs, they do well … I just watched a gardener said Sterling from the bottom in pots is better as watering from the top doesn’t get water to the roots… some I e put pot saucers on some of my plants. Well great video as usual. I saved a honey bee today so it oils not get stepped on, plus I have a shallow plate that they can land on and get a drink. My water fountains are a haven for finches, doves, blue jays and a few others. Hummingbirds love them too. Have a great weekend.❤❤❤❤

Catherine what about taking the mirrors into your shed ? living in the northern climates I generally took all my decorative elements and covered all the furniture. Only way it kept it all in great shape for most things we owned for 25 years. Now in the desert and urban living in bad health I grow minimal things that work.

Hi Catherine , always look forward to your videos, both gardening and craft ones( even tho I’m hopeless at crafts), you are so inspirational. I too was reading about watering your garden less. Apparently watering sparingly makes plants produce stronger roots, that will seek out water going deeper in the soil.

I feel your pain on the lack of rain. It's parched here in the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. and the grass crunches beneath my feet.

Even if it's not ideal, it's a decent temporary fix. That's for sharing your beautiful garden in the rain! 🌧️ 🌺 🌱
