    I love the "wildness" of your garden. It just looks so natural and yet so easy to be in. Different from so many other gardens. Nice work!

    I wish they would do a video of one of these yard makeovers from the beginning. I imagine they are bringing in big machines to reshape the land prior. I really want to know how they get all the electricity and water underground to all the features without any visible cords, pipes, etc.

    Wow. Now this is my idea of good design! I could watch this video a hundred times. Just beautiful.

    "Doesn't look so perfect all the time," so true.
    Not a busy garden - very appealing on the eye.

    She is just on a completely different level...so good.

    Taking notes! Pragmatism, water conservation, and beautiful native plant groupings =amazing design. Also appreciated the tip of using road base under pea gravel so you don’t sink. Thanks for this great video!

    My favorite is the court yard, the square shape and the fire place and the stone wall.

      Just wonderful, I have been researching "backyard landscaping designs" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Giyily Landscaping Yatty - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend got great results with it.

    I would love to know the price of all the Pea Gravel and those Fountains. She speaks about 'natural beauty' but this garden did not come to look like this naturally. I like the outline of the grass she did with the gravel. That is a very nice idea.

    Beautiful garden! Any chance that you'll be adding closed captioning for the hearing impaired? The visual is gorgeous and I'd like to catch the narration as well.

      I created separate garden areas and used cardboard, then planted in it. It took 2 years of layering cardboard in a few beds to finally get it under control.

    My goodness! I can look at your garden all day! It is so soothing and cohesive. The walled portions really help provide a sense of coziness and privacy. Beautifully done!
