I have just bought a beautiful cottage in Wales and one of the things that attracted my partner and me to it from the word go was the garden! Its stunning! Now were moved in and obviously i didnt think too hard about the maintenance side of things - it was like walking into The Secret Garden! Surely itll be like that forever! Certainly not, its actually a huge mess in disguise and Im hugely looking forward to getting in the dirt and sorting out the flowerbeds. This video has saved my beautiful flowers and me! Thank you for your simple instructions, and calming nature: )

I really need help! I have a flower bed that runs half the length of my house and at one time all of my perenials were separated and I had beautiful mulch. Now, they are all over the placeand there is poison ivy throughout. I had knee surgery and so I went a whole season without weeding or mulching, etc. Where do I begin? I go back and forth between wanting to rip it all out and start over, but the true gardener in me wants to save what I can. My granfather used to work at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and I LOVE gardening because of him.

I would like to also see the pond or waterfall in the background. I love the mountains so I made a home-made waterfall myself last year. I was small but delightful but then I got rats! I had a small garden that wasn't ever touched and have a very clean yard. I don't know where or how they decided to come to my house. I thought they might be living in the waterfall so I removed it. :( My neighbor said my yard was too green. Love plants and love your very helpful video's!

Keep in mind that it's important not to cut things back too early - a lot of this dead growth is providing housing for beneficial insects. also it's important to NOT USE those colored woodchips; a lot of times they have chemicals that can harm your plants! just use good compost or regular arborist woodchips. .

Maybe a silly question, but when is the best to time to water first in spring (after mulch or before. Also I see that there is a black carpet like paper that is starting to show. Does that mean I should put in new soil and then mulch on top? Sorry we just got a house (after living in a condo for 10 yrs. Thanks for your help

The snow really did some damage. Surprised to see how some plants survived. Do you ever do views of the garden high up? It would be nice to see the whole garden in an aerial views and know your plans. I find it hard planning out a garden on a large property. We are on 2 acres so about one acre is becoming all garden.

Why you clean all leaves and branches away? They are very helpful. with no leaves and branches: the dirt dry out faster, fewer soil life, no protection for the plants. So there is not much to do on the flower bed. You just cut the dried stalks und thats it: )
Sry for my bad English and i hope you understand me.

The second you said you deweed by hand because you want to get all the roots, I started to sweat. I'm not kidding, it took my 2 hours to de root 2 of my beds, it's like ny city under my existing landscaping material. Do I need to pull those? If so, I'm hiring somebody, this is insane, I have ten beds
