Sharing garden joy

追加: 2026-06-01

[00:00:09]The new >> [laughter] >> inhabitants of this garden.

[00:00:20]We have the one who's drinking Ginestra and the one in the back Lotta.

[00:00:30]Hello Lotta.

[00:00:35]They're goslings.

[00:00:39]Then we have the garden in all of its glory.

[00:00:45]>> [laughter] >> I recently planted tomatoes, different varieties with basil. It's looking a little bit sad.

[00:00:59]And the GT or marigold and here we have lots of um chard, different type of chards.

[00:01:15]Then more zucchini.

[00:01:21]That's soon going to be harvested. This is an old um cow manure that my neighbor brought us I think back in October last year.

[00:01:35]Here we have a little bit of a mix. By the way, hello.

[00:01:41]>> [laughter] >> My garden, for those who never been here, hello, hi. Um my name is Martina.

[00:01:49]And we live in this area in the central Italy on the hills and um I I'm a firm firm believer and and and supporter of wild gardening. So, I love to to let wild plants do their thing while also including cultivated plants.

[00:02:13]So, my garden looks looks very biodiverse and and wild.

[00:02:21]And yesterday I planted two mulberry trees.

[00:02:26]This is black mulberry.

[00:02:29]It's called gelsomero.

[00:02:32]See the scientific name, morus And I planted it here. I wanted the garden to also be shaded because this is the land and we have we have forests all around, but not in this big field.

[00:02:53]So, we recently fenced the garden.

[00:02:57]I made the majority of the fence and the little gates there.

[00:03:03]That's the house.

[00:03:04]And um we fenced it, so no dogs and chickens are allowed in.

[00:03:13]But these ladies, yes.

[00:03:17]The geese, yes.

[00:03:19]Because they love grass and wild plants. And yes, sometimes they also eat some some of the veggies, but not that much.

[00:03:34]Look at this.

[00:03:36]My goodness.

[00:03:39]Nigella damascena, I think it's called.

[00:03:45]This plant.

[00:03:47]And then I planted another mulberry tree there.

[00:03:52]And yesterday I also planted there. Let me show you. Hello.

[00:04:12]Yesterday I planted also This was a cutting of a willow weeping willow tree that [snorts] a friend gave me.

[00:04:25]And I have two more here.

[00:04:27]Or three actually. One and two that I want to plant. And also this one that needs to be planted.

[00:04:36]Because it has all of these beautiful roots. Just have to find like a perfect spot for it for for him or her.

[00:04:43]This is the compost area.

[00:04:46]A little bit messy.

[00:04:47]And uh here we have an attempt to grow the tree the three sisters.

[00:04:55]>> [snorts] >> But anyhow, I planted a willow here next to this bed because I want to create shade around here.

[00:05:04]But anyhow >> [sighs and gasps] >> um here there's an attempt of growing the tree sister three not tree three >> [laughter] >> sisters.

[00:05:17]I planted from seeds these beauties. These are sunflowers different varieties.

[00:05:25]And then I I really wanted I also planted from or sown um these beauties. These are a variety of beans that a man up in the north of Italy gifted us.

[00:05:42]But they're not doing super well.

[00:05:47]And we have zucchini. We have very little corn. That is not growing much.

[00:05:54]Basically, the three sis the three Wow.

[00:05:59]The three sisters are three plants.

[00:06:03]I think they're very famous in permaculture.

[00:06:06]Um they're three plants that are growing really well together.

[00:06:12]Zucchini kind of grows in the width. Like lengthwise, can you say that? Um [snorts] widthwise.

[00:06:21]And it kind of covers the soil and creates some shades on the soil. And then the corn or the sunflower grow in height. So then [snorts] the the beans can climb the corn. And they the also and the beans are nitrogen fixators fixers.

[00:06:41]So they all help each other. But anyhow, then we have I mean this is not really a proper garden tour cuz I it would be going forever, but I have a lot of yarrow growing wild here. I let it because yarrow is teaching me so much about boundaries and beauty. And here we have this I planted it on in my on my birthday.

[00:07:09]Variety Noa.

[00:07:11]And it's a grape.

[00:07:13]And I want it to climb the fence here that we made.

[00:07:19]And then I planted this baby. It's a clematis.

[00:07:24]Don't remember [snorts] the species name.

[00:07:27]It's genus.

[00:07:29]Clematis, I think.

[00:07:31]And it just bloomed.

[00:07:33]Look how gorgeous.

[00:07:35]And this is supposed to climb and it's climbing, too. It's supposed to climb the the fence. I want it to kind of like take over the fence, climb around that part of the garden.

[00:07:49]That's an artichoke plant. That's an apple tree. But that side is full of uh perennials.

[00:07:57]Elecampane and valerian root valerian.

[00:08:01]And then we have root a different motherwort there.

[00:08:08]This [snorts] is the attempt to grow the three sisters.

[00:08:14]This is the garden from this perspective. I need to organize that area because I really don't like the static of it. But basically it's a compost um area.

[00:08:24]We have also another compost there because the garden was um also going this way before I put the fence here.

[00:08:34]>> [snorts] >> Now it's just a beautiful wildflower patch.

[00:08:39]And that is a fence sorry.

[00:08:43]That is a compost bin that we created where we dumped a lot of our leftover veggies and our poo and pee.

[00:08:54]And now there is amazing after 2 years there is amazing compost coming from there.

[00:09:01]And um no yarrow.

[00:09:04]Yes. So meet Tamboji.
