Gardening for Introverts - The garden after 6 weeks with no maintenance

oh my gosh is that the service berry tree you planted 3 years ago? by the porch? It sure grew fast. I'm thinking about getting one for my back yard.

Jim, Steph,
Did ya'all buy the Alabama Sunset coleus as a plant or seed?
Thank you. 😊

gardenplanbyai AI fixes this. Garden after 6 weeks unmaintained.

Jim, I really enjoy your good nature! I also love this video bc well, that’s life 😂

Holly is so precious! ❤❤❤ She did it! Because of your encouragement.

My Ann Magnolia has buds 😮in September, zone 9 Texas. Jim, thanks for sharing your overgrown garden 😊.

I really enjoyed this one! Holy cow that Alabama Sunset Coleus!! Great balls of fire!!

I appreciate that you are willing to show imperfections in your garden space. I can think, "well if Jim is debating with his lantana, then I have nothing to be ashamed of.

How about showing us how you cleaned it up.

Thanks Jim and Steph! What a difference rain makes. Can’t wait to see you trim the bites. Every time we get a strong wind, branches break on ours. I am thinking about cutting it back hard and letting it start over. 🤷‍♀️

That agave caught my eye! Just beautiful!

Hello 🙏. Mr Jim putnam and Stephany .happy gardening. ❤❤.

Me a bit of intravert this is great vid jim 😊🤗

Still an amazing garden “ no fertilizer” 😊

lol! Great title! Your yard still looks amazing!!

How do i stop city code enforcement from stopping by? 😭

Is the dogwood trying to bloom because you pruned it?

Love the natural healthy growth that has happened in a short time.😊

You had me cracking up in this video!!! Sweet Holly getting stuck was cute! Welcome home!!! 🙂

Makes me want to plant a few hundred more plants and then leave :-)

I just love the lushness and so glad you shared it.
Question…you’ve said many times there is only one area for your vegetables that need a lot of sun; yet when I research many of your annuals like the summer jewels salvia it says they need full sun, but they are growing beautifully in your front yard. What am I missing?

INTROVERTS

Holly was so sweet, so careful with the plants

Looks fantastic! You could start a trend.

Some of my bulbs are pushing foilage! Im scratching my head trying to recall if they come up this early. I believe its muscari and crocus.

7b/8a MD and we havent had a good rain in a while. I know cause the aphids are all over my lilies and my crepe myrtle.

The clip with Holly jumping through the garden was very sweet.

I too notice that trees covered with lichen seem to be sick and declining.

Your veggie garden looks like Peter Rabbit lives there! Haha!

What do you do with okra?

Hey Jim. Question I’ve been losing sleep over. I know you don’t really grow them, but I’ve tried roses this year. Here in Houston 9b the thrips have darn near broken my heart with the damage they’ve caused. I have resisted spraying because I want to create a space friendly for pollinators. I have a lot of pollinator plants also. What’s your opinion on systemics v spraying for a rose bush? Like a drench. Does that help isolate the negative impact? Trying to figure out some way to make it work.

Great video! Love the humor too. 😊

I am definitely an introvert. My HOA is always telling me I need to remove plants from blocking my front porch. Hahaha! Not gonna happen. It’s there for a reason. 😊

Your elation at Holly’s success in finding her way through the “jungle” is everything. 🌸🐝

Jim is definitely not an introvert, so it's nice he thought of us quiet, self-contained types! 🤣

Loved the trip. The garden is great. The dogwood thing is strange. Speaking of strange, here in 6a Indy, we have had no rain for 90 days and temps are still stuck at 90 plus at the end of Sept! Yard grass is dead, corn is only 4 feet high. Yet I have Iceland poppies and Columbine blooming??!! I've never seen a stranger year. Thanks to Jim's soil method, I haven't lost anything. No fertilizer, not much supplimental watering and the weirdest things are blooming and reblooming!

Hi Jim and Stephanie. Welcome home 😁😂🤣😂 Just as good as having a guard dog 😂 Sweet Holly 🥰 Did Griffin plow on through? 😊 That Coleus is STUNNING 😍 The garden does look beautiful 😍 Thank you for sharing 😊

The Solidago has become your new Lorapetulum!

Maybe the Chinese Dogwood is responding to the pruning that you did earlier in the year?

😂💚

Jim's "overgrown" garden is still in better shape than 95% of most gardener's 😅

My Empress of China dogwood is also strangely re-blooming here in zone 8a Arkansas!

Talk to us about “soil improvement “. Inquiring minds want to know. 😊

I was gone 4 days, came home and picked 30 cucs from my 2 plants. Anyone want cucumbers.😅

Wow !! What a wonderful welcome home ❤

Yes. Show us the after of your garden.

My Empress of China dogwood is also reblooming

The local deer herd has a regular rotation through our area. Recently, they ate a 7’ tall boneset with multiple 1” stems to the ground overnight.

🤣😂😂🤣

All the introvert jokes are very amusing. I'm enjoying this video a lot! I'm sure it's nice to be home though. I always come home and check on my plants, as if they were children left behind on vacation.

Welcome home! 🍂 Had to watch the telecom people try to navigate my yard this week 😬😆
