    My jaw dropped when you put that large "branch" in the pot. So beautiful.

    Mike, you are the Willy Wonka of gardening!! I thought this project was perfect but adding that cozy corner with all the beautiful chartreuse color and that stunning wisteria branch has taken it to another level. The wreath around the door, the lanterns , the fence and that adorable wheel barrow. I am excited to see how this area will evolve over the summer. Thank you for always bringing magic and whimsy in all your videos and sparking our imaginations as well.

    Hi Mike still pulling my jaw off the floor "where's Frodo?"you created a story in this area It gives a forest feel little solor lights would look perfect in the laterns.Those round pots i thought were like older rustic and when you pulled them up i was like wow😂Every detail brought this scene together beautifully the wreath adds depth to the door it draws you in.Always artistic with your design your garden really deserves to be in a magazine! Have a good day to you and Jesse 🕊️💚🇺🇲

    When I limbed up my lilac bushes to look more like trees, I kept the branches and twigs and placed them into a tall ornate plastic container in between my lilacs. It was statuesque and offered a lovely focal point to a little garden. So I love the wisteria branch idea as a natural statue.

    You absolutely amaze me! Each of your projects keeps getting better and better. I loved this video and was oohing and ahhing while you raised the three planter bowls and added the railroad ties in the back and the beautiful wood sculptures. The rocks and lanterns added so much too. Your yard is a magical haven that must be wonderful to spend time in. When you show the still shots of the finished projects, I can't believe just eight years ago it was just a boring backyard with grass and a few trees and now it looks like this.

    Lollygagging is what my family says for strolling somewhere. Even with pruners in hand😊. I ❤ what you've created and of course I've watched all the way to the end!! Also, old ivy branches can be very gnarly😮 and twisted! I have a few to use near my pond. Looking forward to the next 'room'.

  • @jeansandhoodiegardengal2975

    I wanted to say the area, this particular area kind of reminds me of the forest where the dwarfs lived in the movie 'Snow White And The Huntsman ' I think it is very cool to use your imagination. At 72 I use my imagination and my creativity more than ever. Great fun garden🌴🌺🥰

  • @JerryPaschall-ts2kx
    @JerryPaschall-ts2kx Před 5 dny +2

    Very cool! Your updates added the concept of an older, more mature garden. I love the ladder addition (maybe add one or two rusty paint cans with a colorful tall plant and maybe some vining ivy cascading down the rungs from the can)…. This corner would be very cool at night with so many lighting possibilities. A couple thoughts, the obvious is light the lanterns with simulated flame bulbs. Maybe a soft spot light on the sun. String of lights across the tops of the fence posts. Small ferry type lights weaved through the dead tree trunk in the center planter…. It’s amazing how the creative part of the brain gets stimulated with so many ideas in such a small space (one corner) of a garden. Thank you for sharing one of your gardens corners..

    From a first-time watcher, and long-time gardener/horticulturist- it's a lovely design. I really enjoy the lovely color palette and the draw of the "rooms". If you want a low-risk veggie to try, throw in some lettuce seed before and after your sweet potato season. They can take the filtered light, make beautiful, edible foliage plants you can munch on, gift to friends, and are easy for chop and drop composting.
