Seriously though🧐🤔🧐🤓... Have you ever actually noticed to size of squirrel balls compared to its body size? I dunno what’s wrong with me but, I have noticed this. A squirrel’s junk is about as big as a very large walnut! That’s huge, right? I mean, compared with the size of a squirrel’s body! If you’re human & male you should be happy you don’t have the same ‘balls to body’ ratio as a squirrel. 😂😂😂

They will look great in your garden. Liked the visit to the local nursery. Glad that you vacationed in FL. And, yes, northern FL is very different from S.E. FL. Your garden did very well while you were away. And, glad to see your pets when you returned. They are important family members. Looking forward to your next video.

Love seeing the plants that just grow wild and outside that we grow inside or for a time outside. I live in Idaho, so my growing time is limited, and some perennials I have did not make it through our winters. Loved the Croton, that plant I grow inside. Beautiful Hibiscus, I really love this plant. Once again, I giggled throughout this video, you have such fun videos. So glad you had a great relaxing vacation, but so glad you are back home. We plant people will do anything to get our plants home when we go out of state, or if we are on an airplane. Another great video Jeff, once again you made my weekend, super cool at the end of this video, the filming of the sky and stars and moon. I really enjoyed so much of this video Jeff, loved the footage on the plane as you were flying, and happy to see the plants and how they made it, they really do look pretty stinking good. I always love the fur time, love our animals and miss them when we go somewhere without them. Love seeing how your flowers and plants did while you were gone, and they look so beautiful. Thanks again Jeff, see you soon, bye for now.

I read in one of the comments below that one time you rented a u-haul to go home. That would so be me. LOL! The pictures of the sky, ocean, waves, sunsets, clouds and the plane trip were amazing. Great job videoing this vlog. Loved it! Of course, I love all of your videos, especially the longer ones. Everything looks so pretty. There was quite a bit of growth while you were gone. I hope you don't have to move the sweet potato vines. The lantana tree is so pretty. I bought a small lantana for one of my flower pots. Love it! Do you have to take the heliconias inside for the winter? I'm happy you found them. They are really pretty. Also, do you dig up the caladium tubers and store them over the winter?

And a lot of them are deaf, you can lay on the horn and they are totally oblivious that the light has turned green and the person behind them is blaring their horn. Now what is funny, you came to Florida to find plants you are looking for. I had to order the plants I am looking for from Indiana, and they are cannas for crying out loud. WTF? Oh well, the rhizomes came today so tomorrow I can plant them out (after I buy a new pot because they aren't going to fit in the one I intended). Stuttgart, Inferno and Pink Sunburst - obviously I wanted them for the foliage. Came from Direct Gardening, really nice sized rhizomes, they are just slow AF to ship.

It is so obnoxious! I've learned with visiting family in small towns and with the florida driving that the slow and easy life just isn't for me. Lol, I like to keep things moving! I love the pink sunburst and Stuttgart! I got my Stuttgart from walmart of all places years ago, and sadly after a bad winter lost them all😔. This year I'm just working with Pretoria, Australian red, phaison, and musafolia. I'd like to order some pink sunburst though, much more pretty than the phaison (tropicanna) imo.

@@TropicalPlantParty you can always order the pink sunburst from Direct Gardening if you don't mind waiting two weeks to get them. You could always order some Blue Hawaii Colocasia from them too....

Everything in the garden tour looks beautiful but the BROMELIADS 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Those girls have got me see’n stars ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ THEY ARE THE STARS OF THE SHOW (next only to you of course 😉😘) Oh did I mention that I have a new love for bromeliads? I’m just starting to dive in and only have one toe wet so far but oh my ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ And oh those spider babies..... like I said before I so wish I wasn’t in New York and so far away. Lol Random thought 💭 have you ever thought about looking into renting a PO Box? Just curious????? And veggie gardeners are having the same problem especially in the north east (where I’m located) For spraying all other surfaces with mixture of water, white vinegar, a teaspoon of dawn dish soap and your pick of one or more of these essential oils: Peppermint Lavender Rosemary Add oil/oils about 15 drops at a time, then shake it up and smell the spray. If it comes out of the sprayer smelling good and strong of essential oils then you are done. Just remember that you really can’t ever have to much sent.....😇😎😇😎

Tropical Plant Party the other thing that worked surprisingly well for me but this is only for mosquitoes was garden line but only on bare dirt. For some reason there wasn’t any grass growing in this one partly shady area but there were a lot of water run off from the roof of the apartments. Of course they were breeding like crazy and I’m not sure what prompted me to try it other than desperation and not wanting to use a pesticide. It’s seemed to have broken the breeding cycle or killed the larva, either way I’m not looking a gift horse in the mouth lol.
