September Garden Tour part 3 - Wisconsin Garden Video Blog 727

See More Garden Goodies: http://www.WisconsinGarden.com - - - Welcome to our September garden tour, part 3 where we will finish exploring what’s growing in our eclectic experimental garden here in Wisconsin. We begin where with frogs and goldfish playing in our first little reflective pond and explore the west side gardens. We had to cut down the dead parts of our Cherry tree and visit our converted 3 tier water fall to see the cattails, lily pads and several blossoms. Then on to see our climbing spinach, hibiscus, knock out rose bush, begonias, and Tim’s morning glories with their beautiful blue blossoms growing on our red trellis. The garden containers are reasonably prolific as are the tomato, kale, and tree peony plants in our original garden area. We’re pleased that we didn’t cut down our two freestone peach trees, which despite drastic pruning are doing very well with dozen of peaches we’ll be harvesting in a couple of weeks. Although disappointed by the number of giant dahlia bulbs that didn’t survive despite packing them carefully over the winter, the ones that made it are starting to grow and develop. The giant hibiscus is nearing 10’ tall and has been displaying dozens of new blossoms daily for the past month. The two smaller varieties are also blossoming and seem to like their microclimates. We conclude our September garden tour along the east side of our front porch and hope you’ve enjoyed this month’s visit.
