  • Hi Everyone! Our backyard garden has come a long way. With each season, I try to add to the flowerbeds. There are a few more projects that we would like to tackle. My husband is looking to retire soon. Maybe then we'll have a little more time to spend on our wish list of things we want to add to the garden. Thank you so much for stopping by. :)

    I thought your front yard was gorgeous, and now your backyard is equally so! I love how you have accepted and accommodated the needs of your sweet doggo! It truly is a garden retreat for everyone! And thank you so much for putting captions with plant names and zones and photos. I’m sure it makes for a lot more work on your end, but it’s very helpful. Thanks for another lovely video!

    What a beautiful, tranquil yard. I could stare at it forever. You have put a lot of time, work and love into it. The geraniums ae fantastic! I love the lights on the fence. I think I am going to try growing some creeping fig on my own fence. Lots of inspiration here. Thank you for sharing.

    So lovely. I love how you have incorporated space for your pup. As I was watching your video I was thinking how I bet you enjoy strolling in your yard, and then I realized you are probably like me and any stroll involves me pulling and clipping and maintaining the space. I always laugh when people say, “oh I bet you love just sitting in your garden!” Never much siting going on 😊

    Such a tranquil, perfectly manicured garden. I know you must spend a lot of time making it look this clean and tidy. All your plantings are so lush and colorful. I only find clearance plants at Lowes. But 2 years ago they had baby gem boxwoods for $2.00 each!!!!! I got 10 for $20.00!!! Score! They are now starting to look like a little hedge. I also love my geraniums. Whites, hot pinks and burgundy. In the Bay Area , they bloom constantly and look gorgeous .
