    Wow! What a truly magical and beautiful garden. It exudes feelings of tranquility, peace and harmony with many creative focal points so perfectly placed. Emily’s father truly was a visionary. Thank you, Olga for bringing us along on this joyful, very special visit, and thank you to Emily and Robert for sharing this wonderful garden. They both spoke with such passion, you could tell how much it means to them. Truly a unique legacy well worth preserving.❤

    Wow! Beautiful landscape! I noticed the 3 white oaks had a vine climbing on them - hope it's not English Ivy because it will eventually kill the tree if not removed. My property had a lot of it in the woods and I lost a couple trees and ephemerals before I knew better.

    • @OlgaCarmody
      @OlgaCarmody  Před rokem +2

      You know, I talked to Robert about that English Ivy, and he said that there is a plan to take it down. They just need to secure the property and with the help of Master Gardening Program they will be doing a lot of work in that beautiful garden!

At the end there was a comment from Robert saying they hoped people will help them save the property....is there more information about that, and if interested, where tax deductible contributions to the Blau House and Gardens non profit organization may be made?

      I wouldn't say it is a great rebloomer. Maybe I expect a lot from reblooming rose.

    Personal preference for me is that vocal audio be cast into a mono channel so that it's equal between both ears. Find it jarring when there is hard left right vocal audio, especially when it mismatches on screen.
    Critique aside, always love the garden walks. :)

      OK, looks like you know something good here. How do I make the sound better? Can you direct me to a good learning source ( I really know nothing about sound system). I just keep it as is. Thank you!

      @@OlgaCarmody it really depends on what software you're using as to the how to. At a glance on YT, Sam Woodhall has some nice sound tips and tricks videos for more advanced sound stage editing, but I'd recommend simply looking for "[your software] sound editing" tutorial searches to get started.
