Perennial, Deciduous & Evergreen Plants … It’s Time For Your Nap 💤

hello everyone it's Janette here from enthusiastic Gardener I've been so excited to get outside today and I'm so pleased it's it's a beautiful day because I feel like I have two more Garden videos left for this year and this one is going to be clearing out anything that's dead or flopping or perennials cutting it all back love doing that and also winterizing the fountain I'm not going to tackle the leaves today because I want it clear as possible before we do the leaves I think that would be easier I have my cup of caramel coffee last weekend I came out Sunday morning I didn't film it or anything but I planted every single spring Bowl which I showed you last week they're all in and I'm delighted so actually Richard captured a little video just to prove that I did it this is Janette doing what she likes doing most that's gardening I can't hear you what you say I I said this is Janette doing what she loves doing most ging because I'm planting BS I hate planting bulbs she hates planting buls apparently but actually it's going well and that's it I've just made a cup of coffee thank you I also planted these little Pisa glor daisies white which you may remember were in my pot over there they were in little plant pots for a couple of weeks now they're safely in the ground so they're done I also planted my beauty Berry right over there by the try carpus it grows very big actually it's a c carpa Imperial Pearl beautiful purple berries which Edie gave me thank you Edie so I've planted that that does grow big so I'm going to have to keep that in check I think it can grow up to about 2 m tall but I will keep it in check and if it gets too big then I will um think of a plan B so today I'm going to cut back everything such as this Salvia such as those crocosmia anything that is going to die in a frost we haven't actually had had a frost yet although today it's 0° C which I understand in Fahrenheit that's something like 32° so it's very cold I have my two little helpers today although I don't know how long they're going to last out here especially Lucy who prefers the warmth and the cold come and say hello cuz people don't see you very much she's wriggling already she'll probably end up going inside so we're going to cut back everything that is a perennial that but very shortly when we do have a frost we'll die back to the ground anyway and I know some people say they like to leave all their things up for winter interest and for any little things to hibernate in or but me I'm afraid I like it clear I like it tidy I want it gone I'm ready for my rest my winter rest I'm so ready for my winter rest so let's get on and do it it really is cold I'm going to do this as quick as I can because I am determined determined and enthusiastic that his job is going to get done today and now that my buls are planted there's nothing to worry about me taking these plants out and not remembering where they are and that was the reason I wanted to plant the the bolts before this [Music] job this is a lily which is still looking pretty so I'm going to leave that that probably will go in the next Frost I'll leave it for the moment cuz I can easily once it's all mushy and awful can rip that out I'm just going to work my way around the circle and this Nandina this is Evergreen so that can stay this is my Pisa Pon super blue seedling that's Evergreen that can stay so we're just going to move around this way so that is the crow cosmia what's next all these are uous uh they are evergreen so they will stay this is a firm and this one will die back but it's still looking nice if they're looking nice they can stay until they die back naturally CarX that will stay that's an evergreen all those ferns are evergreens the breras my beloved breras they will die back but at the moment they are looking nice so they can stay for the moment the fattier that's an evergreen that will stay we've lost all the leaves now on the cers canadensis and then we have the Pisa pungence Hoops ey that's Evergreen next to it in the other red pot is a lemon Cyprus which is Evergreen this little grass thing at the front that's an evergreen still have roses this is a lovely Pius and this stays Evergreen this is the nine bar that will just lose its leaves and you don't prune nine bark so we just leaving that alone so the hooker is down here they will stay Evergreen all those hookas we might get leaves at the bottom of them which need to be uh just taken off old leaves we would probably deal with that in the spring this is um a cerus and and apart from some leaves going brown this is daier and as you know daers do not probably last so I'm pting that out and I'm not going to keep it I'm not going to try and store it or anything it's just that's it for the daily [Music] is here go da is are no more will go don't lose my secars so that's all gone this is um an ACA little princess that will just lose its leaves we don't need to do anything with that but does it all itself the lamium although it's covered in leaves still looking good to be honest I don't know if that will die back or not I'm not sure but I'm leaving that for the moment then we have hydranga and I know you'll probably shout at me I'm going to take these off this is a kattin smoke bush young lady that will lose its leaves but we don't need to do anything else with that my petinia Red Robin this is Evergreen this stays we don't need to do anything at all with the patiner robin here we have the Tuscan totem pole Cyprus this is Evergreen this can stay exactly as it is as well as this very very beautiful cerus that stays this rose that will lose its leaves so that can just do its own thing don't need any help for that this that's Evergreen and this is a hyd ranger can be left that will lose its leaves this is an eyet konata little Cloud pruned which is very cute um that is an evergreen so that could stay these grasses are CarX these are evergreen they will just stay this is an Alberta spruce that can stay moving on next we are at the Sedum neon Joy lot of people would leave this up I'm not going to I'm going to pull it out I'm just cutting right down at the base these are little seedlings that have just Reed seed themselves they're called serin Pure Puris but nothing's going to happen with them now I'm going to take out these which are little bonias they can go [Music] this here is um an AIA that can go back to the ground these are osteospermum now these can over winter in fact I had uh I've already planted them this year so I'm going to keep these here see how they do just cut off all these old spent flowers this is quite a prominent spot I might actually take out this one because it's leaning over a bit and uh get r that one this is an Arin which I didn't plant it's just appeared so maybe a squirrel be if that or something so that's that this is my lovely ARA maila which I planted this spring and I have my fingers firmly crossed for this one this is the other Sedum neon joy and this is going going to come out as well and then finally we're back around this side again this is a harded geranium still looks okay to me but that will D back another Dusty Miller and this beautiful little lemon Cyprus so as we look around the edges The Olive Tree that's okay the Forum is okay the fatsia is okay the two ey Stokes they're okay to stay we have the pinus Vander wolfes pyramid next to a [Music] u this Sedum that can go gone and then finally the Chinese plumbago that can stay all the hookas can stay the lavender that can stay more hookas obviously obviously the tracky carpus the uh ymous green Spire in the pot The Ivy will be fine oh yes the little what's that called stokesia stokesia can be cut to the [Music] ground that's almost it really that's a yamus and then we have the Nandina we have the Mahonia above that's an evergreen in fact look at these Gorgeous Flowers that is a winter flowering Delight right that's going to be bright yellow very pretty Mahone is if you want some winter interest now with the Roses you can leave your roses and prune them in the spring look so strugging so I'm just going to cut mine just above a bud a leaf node bud just to tidy it up a bit and then in the spring probably give it a better prune that will do for the moment so everything is cut back there needs to be cut back ready for the winter let's just trim this cuz that's a bit annoying isn't it there over in Woodland Courtyard nothing much needs to be done over here they're all ferns this is a poppy made from the DT students at school they made them all from the remembrance service that we had recently and then they sold them all off to raise money for the Royal British allegion so I bought one of those the fater that's Evergreen the walnut tree already lost its leaves more fattier the ferns they should be fine the hookas they should be fine and all this little bit here should all be fine so we're getting ready for the winter I just need to put all my uh Garden Stakes away I like it I like it looking like this I think there is a season for everything the last things I want to do is to empty and clean fountains I have this Fountain here and have that one over there and I might grab Richard to help me so for the emptying of the fountain we need this young man who's uh had a very happy birthday this week have you I did would you like to share how old you were no okay okay it begins with a six yeah and ends in a three that's it good enough clue so we just need to empty out the fountain because I did suggest putting the fountain away didn't I you did but you said it will be all right a bunch of waters out that'll be fine and it's okay to leave the pumping there's that so we got to get the water out yeah somebody did say that they take their pond pumps in I did mention to Richard should we do that in case the pump freezes he said that if there's no water in in there then the pump can't freeze well is that what you said Rich if there's no water in in there then the pump can't freeze is that what you said yeah what we're in the pump then it freezes it's not as irrelevant okay come back in a few minutes yeah oh gosh that's nasty my face [Music] [Music] [Music] okay so we'll leave it there to dry let's go check on the other one the other one is nice and well I'll probably get that a little scrub as well right that's it just need to put all beans away I like it looking um ready for the winter and there is a season for everything and now is the season for a rest for the garden and a rest for me as I say I still have to come out clear all the leaves that can be done next week but now at least everything um is out of the way and easier to do see you next week and don't forget for those of you who remember in September I was given a piano I have been practicing the piano since then and I will as promised play your tune on the piano for the very last video of this gardening season so in the meantime I'm Janette I will see you soon thank you for watching take care everyone bye
