I love what you’ve done with your yard space. I’m looking for a wall fountain like the one you have in your backyard. Where did you get it? Do you recommend it??

Thanks for sharing!!

And is it a hydrangea tree. I have enjoyed your information. Thanks in advance.

Hi Whitney,
You’re so sweet… I’m always learning about gardening too. ;) Pinching back means cutting the dead flower off at the base once it’s done it’s thing to help promote more blooms. I also trim back whole plants a bit once they’re done with an entire bloom session.
At the beginning of the year (Super Bowl Sunday) I trim back all my roses to around 18″ from the ground. I also remove all leaves and this helps start the plants off on a healthy start for Spring. As to the Penstomen.. I cut them back all the way when I do the roses in January.
Hope this helps a bit. Google is a great resource when unsure too. I’m always looking there. :) Hugs!

I am a NOVICE, in every description, when it comes to gardening. And I have a quick question for you :)

When you say ‘pinching’ – Is that when they start to flower, or after they’ve bloomed?

When you say ‘trim back’ is that just like trimming off dead leaves and dead flowers?

Thank you so much for your time!! Your home and garden are so beautiful, and such an inspiration!!

Much love and many hugs from CO 💚💙
