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

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

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.

🤣😂😂🤣

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.

My Empress of China dogwood is also reblooming

Yes. Show us the after of your garden.

Wow !! What a wonderful welcome home ❤

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

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

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

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

😂💚

The Solidago has become your new Lorapetulum!

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

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 😊

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!

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

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

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. 😊

Great video! Love the humor too. 😊

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.

What do you do with okra?

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

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.

Looks fantastic! You could start a trend.

Holly was so sweet, so careful with the plants

INTROVERTS

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?

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

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

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

Is the dogwood trying to bloom because you pruned it?

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

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

Still an amazing garden “ no fertilizer” 😊

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

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

That agave caught my eye! Just beautiful!

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. 🤷‍♀️

How about showing us how you cleaned it up.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.
