    Loved all these gardens, they really all looked fab! And I love the trend for upcycling, it makes your garden so unique, which I think is everything if you want to really feel like your garden is part of *you*
    Gravel is a much underrated medium, so relatively cheap, easy maintenance and very obliging! I’ve a small area of gravel for parking and turning my car on. It’s such a small area, it’s quite hard to turn the car successfully coz I don’t want to give over any more of my planting areas for a car! 😆

    My newest obsession this year is Cosican Mint!!! Also a camomile lawn!! ❤

      I got some Corsican mint - it was lovely but didn't survive a very wet winter. Good luck with yours, it is really nice.

    I’m really glad to see a way of catching rainwater that is beautiful - something other than those hideous plastic rain barrels. I fully plan on adopting that new method. Thank you so much for spotlighting it!

    Oh so sorry to have missed this amazing event as I’ve just returned from London. I had the fortune of working with my daughter in her perennial beds. We spent a day planning and shopping at Petershem’s. A must do after visiting Hampton Court.

    Fabulous! Love these ideas.
    We are moving to a smaller place with a large deck that looks out at the water- and a 10 foot garden below. I am wondering if you see gardens that you look down on. The struggle is real! So love you channel! ❤❤❤

    Fabulous theme this year!
    Wouldn't dare try to fill up my eavestroughs with succulents, but it does look very charming. I've seen people hang pieces of eavestrough off the side of their garden sheds. One of my favourites was a shed that had 3 troughs full of strawberries and herbs. Smelled and looked fantastic.
    Thank you for the sharing, Alexandra.

      @MyFocusVaries Před 7 dny +1

      If you're considering putting one in, do some research. Clover on its own isn't great. After a year, it will have gaps. It works best when mixed with grass or another ground cover.

    You are my favorite! We live in the Pacific Northwest of America and because of availability, we do use a lot of wood and logs. Our landscaping is inspired by our forests and woods. You, however, nudged me to change up our black metal bench. I was going to spruce it up with another coat of black. After watching you this afternoon, I selected a can of leafy green.spray paint. I LOVE it.! So fun! Thank you! Love your videos.

    This was wonderful. We are moving home from a large plot to a very small one. You adressed and confirmed the main issues I was wondering about. Garden size, use of various materials and drainage in town gardens. Loved the garden photos ( I want it all 😂) you do a great job, always ☺️

    Lovely video! My favourite garden was the Mediterranean...just so beautiful, fresh & inviting, and the raised container beds were inspirational. Then there was the garden with a scatterring of builders' rubble (concrete & brick chunks) that, to my mind, was pursuit of recycling to an unecessary extreme, and detracted from what was otherwise attractive planting.

    I can affirm that plants will grow in rain gutters--they do here in central Indiana in abandoned and neglected houses. I wouldn't recommend it, though. The plants dam up the water and the whole thing gets so heavy that it pulls part of the gutter off the house, leaving the rain to fall around the foundation.

      That is always a challenge, but there are a couple of videos that might help: czcams.com/video/osgr9HbiW4I/video.html and czcams.com/video/HtsqXEMeocM/video.html They both feature small spaces and also the principles they use apply to small spaces, I hope that helps.
