The Garden I’ve Been Ignoring… and Why It Still Matters

There’s one garden space on our property that I’ve completely neglected… and today I’m finally giving it the attention it deserves. This chicken coop garden is the hardest space we have: • Pure red clay soil • Full sun all day • No irrigation • On a hill • And low visibility, which means it often falls to the bottom of the priority list But even the most challenging, least glamorous garden spaces still matter. In today’s video, I’m focusing on just ONE section instead of trying to tackle all five areas at once. I’ll walk you through: 🌿 How I improve red clay soil over time 🌿 Why I don’t till clay on a slope 🌿 Compost layering strategy 🌿 Fertilizing stressed perennials 🌿 Pruning sun-loving shrubs for a strong comeback 🌿 Drought-tolerant plant choices that thrive in tough conditions Plants featured include perennial hibiscus, rudbeckia, salvia, gardenias, Soft Touch hollies, and a cherry tree anchoring the slope. If you’ve got a forgotten corner in your garden, this video is for you. Even neglected spaces respond to care. There is grace in gardening… even in red clay on a hill. 💚 Let’s grow, bloom & thrive — one space at a time. 00:00 The Garden I’ve Been Ignoring (Site Overview) 02:10 Prioritizing Garden Spaces: High vs Low Visibility Beds 04:35 Gardening in Full Sun with No Irrigation 07:20 Red Clay Soil Challenges & Organic Matter Strategy 10:05 Drought-Tolerant Perennials That Thrive in Tough Conditions 13:40 How to Cut Back Perennials in Late Winter 16:45 How to Remove Tree Suckers on Grafted Trees 19:55 Essential Garden Tools for Pruning & Weeding 22:40 When & How to Fertilize Trees, Shrubs & Perennials 25:30 How to Add Compost to Improve Clay Soil Over Time 28:10 Intentional Garden Pacing: One Space at a Time
