Trust me when I say that anyone who is watching this video is definetely "not bored." Don't apologize for teaching. :) As someone who just likes to plant without planning, this is a great video. Thankyou.
“I’m going to go quickly here because I don’t want to bore you”! Are you kidding?? This is the best video on garden design I’ve ever watched! Can’t wait for the sequel! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience in such a clear, easy to follow way x
Wish I had watched this video a few years ago. Excellent content!
This is very helpful, not boring at all!!!
Thank you for taking the time to explain all of this. The learning curve of gardening is high and there is a lot of money wasted trying things out without a plan. I really appreciate your time and thoughts!
When I first started my total gardening immersion, I made the classic rookie error of buying 1 or 2 of every plant that caught my eye. I think it’s a right of passage! ....It took me about 2 years of trying in vain to make them all work before I dug every single one up to start again. A LOT of hard work but so worth it in the end. 😎
As soon as you wrote “Norway maple” I knew that tree was not long for this world. 😀 Very interesting to watch your process. Thank you.
Yes for that Norway. You crack me up I P Gardener. Looking forward to part 2.
Ha ha! Norway Maples belong in Norway 😁 Thank you! I know this process is not super glamorous but essential 😁
Hi Impatient Gardener, just wanted to say a big thanks for mentioning this video in one of your videos! I love it and I love your channel too! I’m learning so much and enjoying the ride!
While not anything amazing presented here, this was SO HELPFUL just to see how basic the planning can be. Makes the “thinking big” seem so much more manageable. Thank you!
Thank you!
I'm a Master Gardener and have taken garden design courses before but this is the best explanation of how to start a plan that I have seen. I'm going to follow your process to revamp some of my spaces this year. So helpful! Especially love the practical aspects you incorporated in (wind screens, keeping a view of neighbor's trees, filling the low spots). In my earlier plans, it was always about the plants I wanted but I can see how your process will really help enhance what I've already started. Thank you for posting this!
Goodness...awesome video! So well explained. Thank you..looking forward to part 2!!! 🌷🌸❤
Thank you so much Stephanie! that means a lot to me.
Best design class I’ve seen. I’m a Indiana master gardener and naturalist. Glad you use native plantings.
@Stephanie...you’re so humble and great comment...I didn’t know how to understand this vid and wondered what a ‘master’ opinion would be...I was pleasantly relieved a comment from a ‘master.’ T y for your encouragement.

Yeah! This is what I've been looking for on CZcams for 2 years. I have lots of books (John Brookes, Thomas Church, etc), but love to see it in action and with new ideas) Thank you!! Love that you said "Think big, start small."
Happy to help :)
I am a landscape designer, too. You did a fantastic job with this video. Your explanation was so clear, and your advice was spot-on!
I’m so grateful to have found you!
Perfect mix of common sense & expertise which I need😄
I wish this series was around when I started! I have some green giants that the previous owner planted kind of randomly that could be transplanted and repurposed as a screen between us and a very nosy neighbor. Thanks for making these.
Oh boy, how I needed this one! I’ve designed several gardens I thought were acceptable but , once again, you’ve shown me an easier, smarter way! I could listen to you all day. You have a lovely presence! I’m loving this series! I have my platt and ready to get started. I’m 78 but still very active and can’t wait to actually get started. I’ll be a little slower getting it done but will try to keep up once we get to actually doing the work!
Thank you so much Jan!
I'm a U of Rhode Island Master Gardener and very much wanting to redesign my yard on my own. Just had my septic replaced which caused a massive amount or destruction to both my yard & landscaping. I really needed this info to help me better plan my new landscape. Thank you so much for this series. This is super helpful!!!!
EXCELLENT! This video is equal parts instructional and informational for the average home gardener looking to transform a yard into a beautiful, functional and safe home oasis! Thank you so very much for this series on Garden Design!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant and oh so practical! I love how you stressed that...towards the end. Initially, as beginners we are so excited but quickly overwhelm ourselves by stuffing a bunch of plants in hoping to create the beautiful space but totally forget to prioritize safety, structure, and practicality! And it helps that you have a calm and soothing tone. Thanks Yulia!
Yes! Yes! Yes!!! Just what I had hoped for. I am starting my homework 📚.
Ha ha, gotta love homework :)
It's very helpful to see someone else work out a rough drawing, that's all I can do, so I don't overthink the process. It doesn't have to be a finished product right off your first drawing. Just get something down to get started. Thank you Yuliya!
Yes, don't overthink it. Just go out there write down what you have and what you would like to have :)
If I could give this two thumbs up I would! Can’t wait for the 2nd installment.
This is very helpful for me! We’re buying a new construction and i want to draw up my ideas before i walk to a landscaping company
I got the key to a huge garden three days ago and looking forward to starting work, but am also nervous, because it is my first. This is helping a lot.
Thanks for your work 💚
Best of luck!
I am renovating a little cottage on the Baltic in Sweden and have spent the last couple of years renovating the cabin and the front garden. But the back yard is what I want to tackle and it is completely wild with an elevation and a lot of large diverse trees. So this design process is exactly what I was looking for. Excited.
That sounds amazing!
OMG!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! This is a basics of landscape design! Thank you, I can start now with planning how to even start designing my garden. I hope that you will continue this lesson, please😏!
This is so helpful and encouraging!!! Thank you!!! I feel overwhelmed. I am looking at a blank slate, which is good and bad. It is good because I can theoretically do many things, but it is bad because I do not know how to get started. Your video has helped me so much!! I love that you said think big but start small. Just talking about doing the site survey and then a site plan help to focus me on how to start. Getting started is so difficult if you are a total novice like myself. Thank you so much!! I look forward to screening more of your videos!! You are a wonderful teacher!! 😀
This is the best tutorial for garden planning on CZcams! Thank you 😊
Good morning from Tennessee, always enjoy your videos !
Thank you so much Lavonda!
This is better than content you have to pay for. Absolutely amazing, thank you
You're very welcome!
I am in USA and an edible garden landscape designer. I love this! I’m working on coaching and designing usable and beautiful spaces!
Love this! I'm a gardener, but I do tend to just throw things in haphazardly without a plan. I'm moving to a new home, and plan to use your suggestions. Can't wait to see the rest of this series!
Thank you, Yuliya! Moved to this house last August, arborist assessed, trimmed, and fertilized trees. I drew my site survey and am creating my program. So, your video came at the perfect time for me. Again, thank you very much!
Yay! Awesome!
Oh my gosh, this segment is GOLDEN! It was so simple, yet packed with valuable, helpful information for a homeowner to go about designing or redesigning their garden. I can see the magic of doing these steps. This is timely for me because we moved to a new state with
1 acre+ property. Because this will be my second garden from scratch, I know the pitfalls as a plant lover wanting to get to the doing of the planting. This video has helped encouraged me to draw things out. I can't wait to see more. Thank you again for all of your help!
Yes! these steps are pretty simple but really important!
I just bought a land plot where I am planning to build a tiny house and then to design my garden. Thank you very much for this video. It is extremely useful! I loved it.
Best of luck!
Don't worry about 'boring' any of us. I don't think that is going to happen. Looking forward to part 2!
Ha ha, thank you!
A garden to me is an oasis of nature, a place to escape. This is different than a flower bed, like the front of most homes. A garden is usually away from the road, a place that you can sit surrounded by your favorite plants.
Thank you for talking about the water around the house. One mistake I made when designing my garden and flower beds was not thinking of the soil grade. We had recently bought the house and didn't realize how much standing water there was around the foundation because the soil had settled so much (despite all the downspouts being previously extended). Before planting or bringing in gravel, etc. it is really important to first bring the soil level up around the foundation. In my case, I had to go back and fix things after I already had everything in place. That made everything much more difficult.
Yes, water can really damage the foundation. I actually had the same problem next to our kitchen and after we fixed it I planted some hollies and other plants knowing I can sleep peacefully at night 😁
Y Garden ...interesting...how do you get someone stubborn to understand that?? It makes me cry that someone doesn’t take it seriously...I do not want an Amazon rain forest...I would like a garden...
Yes...keep the flow of water 'away' from the house, so helpful to hear!
Excellent. Most engaging garden design video I've watched. Natural teacher!
Normally things like this bore me, but you've actually piqued my interest in designing my garden and now my backyard!
Thank you Yulia! This is one of the most helpful gardening videos I’ve watched. Can’t wait for the next one. Kathy
Thank you so much for your video. We live in zone 6b, in the high desert of Nevada. We get about 7-9" of annual precipitation, have hot summers, cold/dry winters and high pH soil. Our home is an old ranch that sat vacant for 5 years, in which time all of the original landscaping and mature trees died. We have now been here 5 years and I have been buying plants just like you said! I buy them because I love them either for their color or variety but have no plan on where I'm going to put them. It has cost me a lot of money over the last couple years because many have died just sitting in the container.
Last night, I found your garden design videos-parts 1-3-and stayed up until the wee hours of the morn watching them all. Thank you so much!!! I keep plants/flowers alive, but I’ve never designed a yard before. We purchased a new-to-us home 5 years ago, and I’ve spent the past 3 years UNxeriscaping it so that I could plant flowers.
With your encouragement, I spent hours this morning wandering through and sketching my garden/forest-just like you explained and am more excited than overwhelmed for the first time in years. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for your comment! it means so much to me 😊🌝
I've been looking for this lesson for close to 2 years now. Thank you so much! Subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
Anyone else noticed the East and West are inverted 🤔🤗? Thank you for sharing your method - great video 👍👍!
Definitely not boring us! I’m also a master gardener and this makes so much more sense to me. I knew these ideas in my head but couldn’t articulate it. Thank you so much!
I’ve wanted something like this. I want to add to my garden, things like pathways and whatnot. Thank you. 😊
Being one of those gardeners who traditionally goes out there and buys a bunch of plants to put around my house, this is so helpful. I’m a recent convert to raingardens though, so when you mentioned low spot my immediate thought was, oooh, perfect location for one! I take the point of your lesson though, to analyse the lay of the land. Thanks (but raingarden! 😉).
Excellent!
i am architect and always want landscape tutorial i can say that was much more than i want thank you
Oh Yulia, I wish you were here in KC to help me with my new garden! Thank you for sharing your expertise. I love your style of design.
Thank you so much for watching!
Very informative. Very well structured presentation. How I wish we would have seen this 44 years ago when we would have been able to afford more and physically been able to do more. We are on just under one acre...alot to figure out....alot to do..... little by little.....so one can enjoy the process and each other and the yard..... Many will benefit from these programs. Thank you for the time you have put into all of this. We also watch , Garden Answer, which encourages design and flow, but also like you, they don't charge into a project.
I got a huge grin when I saw this was up. Yay!!! You’re so cute.. “who knows?!?” 🤣 I cant wait to see where this goes.
Ha ha! that's what happens when you have an 'imaginary' property to work with 😂
Brilliant, so inspiring! I'm that gardener who goes out and buys lots of plants and excitedly puts them in the ground with no plan... after watching your video, I'm going to sit down and master a garden plan! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you Yulia for the series, now I can have a foundation to built my garden design ideas. I spend soo much time agonizing over where and how I would place things in that "hazy" vision I have for my garden, lol, flower beds, walkways, etc. With your clear instructions and hands on explanation, I believe that both I and my garden will be in a better place.
You can do it! Good luck!
very helpful, thank you. I have to restrain myself, I just want to plant flowers.
Ha ha! Same here! I am much more disciplined when designing for others than in my own yard 😂
Thank you! This is a GREAT help, looking forward to part 2.
Love, love your work!!🥰💐
Thank you so much!
I love your video! Thank you. Bring more! Happy gardening and designing.
Very helpful! Can’t wait for the other videos. Thank you!
Wow! Amazed at how quickly you broke out the space and wrote out the garden plan! definitely can see the professional hand. Also, very interesting perspective - to start with "vision garden" and "features" - like shade space, screen or just "beautiful wall" designation - i definitely see value in this approach, makes it easier to see bigger picture and not get lost in what type of plans to put where right from the start
Thanks Catherine! :)
“Let me know if you like this video”.... You are adorable!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! it is so helpful and something I’ve always wanted to know how to do.
I found you because of “the Impatient Gardener” and I’m so so glad I did.
Now gotta go do “my homework”, I’m so excited!
Haha! Thank you! And thank you Erin for bringing people together 😁
I am planning my own garden in Afghanistan and your video was very informative and useful, thank you Y Garden
That's wonderful!
Thank you so much!! I have struggled for years on how or where to start on my property now I can learn from you. Can’t wait to see what’s next. This video was a great idea. 🦋💕
Oh my, this is wonderful!!!! My back yard as a whole is sooo very tired looking. I started a new flower bed during the winter. It’s empty and I’m still fighting a couple weeds. I’m zone 8. I ALWAYS buy plants first then prep a spot, and there you go! I want a proper garden and this is amazing. You are so very talented and you explain it so well. Now I just need to find my pencil! 😝🧐😍
Thank you so much! I was so nervous working on this video. Sometimes I just don't know if I am making any sense 😂😂😂
@Lisa Walters...great comment...your well chosen emojis stated it all...lol
Thanks for all the great tips and info Yuliya!
Love it Yuliya! This design series is so fun! Thank you!
Thank you Laura!!! 😁😁
Don’t worry about going fast! I LOVE this video. This is what I’m looking for. I’m wanting to go back to school maybe or get some certification for landscaping. I’m starting with projects at home but don’t know where to start. So thank you!
Great video Yuliya! You are such a good teacher. I wish 8 yrs ago when I started gardening this series was out. I was the fire in the belly type. Worked too hard for little reward. Put plants in wrong conditions and didnt pay attention to mature size. But over the years I've figured it out but again had to over work and move plants to better conditions and appropriate places for their size. I started more formal but have evolved to more natives and a more wild look which is much easier and great for the pollinators. Thanks Yuliya😊
Sometimes it's great to learn from experience but it's better to learn from other people's mistakes. I have killed my share of plants too 😂😂
Thank you so much for starting this series!! The basics of garden design is something I never learned and I'm realizing how important it really is. After years of doing it the wrong way it may take awhile to correct my mistakes but I look forward to taking on this challenge and improving my property. What an incredible journey this will be. Thanks again for creating this!!
I am so glad Carla!
I loved this video! Not boring at all. I’m excited to learn more. Thanks so much.
Nice
Love it! Thanks for doing this series!
Oh, my gosh! I’m so excited! Thanks for doing this!
Thank you for sharing like it
Oh my. You are absolutely amazing. I am your example of Willy nilly - put the plant someone gave you into the ground. Whew. I am so grateful you are willing to share your education.
Я в восторге! Так доходчиво и абсолютно применимо на практике. Благодарю! Буду смотреть следующие видео
Спасибо!!!
Love this video. You make it look so easy. Very practical.
Best i have seen
O my, thank you so much! :)
Very good explanation of garden design.
Thank you so much! This is so helpful. I don't feel so overwhelmed by the huge project and endless choices. Thank you so much!!
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos!
Oh this is awesome. More please. I’m super excited to get a plan on paper.
This video has been extremely useful for me. We have quite a large garden in the UK that completely wraps around out house with well established plants and the like. We don't get what a previous occupant was trying to achieve and trying to put our own stamp on things. All the books i've brought and read just deal with a handful of designs that don't fit out garden type and we're left not knowing how to get started. This also shows me that i need not learn a modelling software just to plan my garden, so time saved there and reinvested back into the garden. Thanks.
This is my first time to watch your video,I like the way you explain with simplicity,keep it up
Wow! Thank you so much - this is just what my garden needs!
I’m new to terrarium building. And that’s why I’m here
Wow! Very helpful! Fixing to move into new house with a large ft garden space. Not liking many plants in it.
But, I must wait till spring to even know what surprise plants are in there. Can’t wait to get started. Have seedlings started
& will be ready to go to work.
This really did help me. I can draw plans now. 🎉
I will be able to make a plan.
Excellent!
You have made a complex process seem less intimidating! You’re a good teacher and a very generous professional. Thx for sharing!
In episode 4 of 'Big Dreams, Small Spaces' Monty Don relays a principle, that “No garden needs more than seven plants”, qualifying that simplicity and repetition are crucial. I looked at my north-facing backyard and counted the plant varieties I have planted over the years on all three sides. The list goes like this: hydrangeas, hostas, rodgersias, ferns, heucheras, hellebores, cordylines (and mint tucked in between to be used as a herb). Seven! Tadah! I could never say it was only seven plant varieties. It looks endlessly interesting.
That sunlight. Wow. Great production.
Yay! So glad you are doing this series. I moved into my house about a year ago and I need to develop a better plan. This will help so much!
Perfect!
I have a good sized garden laid all to lawn at present and it goes all the way around my bungalow. I have been excited and very, VERY daunted by starting a design for improving the garden and as a result I haven't started yet.
I loved your video and have now subscribed. I actually feel that maybe I will be able to do this with your tutorials and feel more excited than daunted. I'll start this weekend.
Thank you for inspiring me to have a go at last. I look forward to watching part 2 when I have completed my 'homework' from part 1. x
One step at a time 😊☺️
I like this video
What a great video! So much useful information!! Thanks 😀
Love, love, love!
That's exactly what I've been looking for! Thank you so much!❤🌸
Yay!!! I’m so excited for this series! ❤️ This is exactly the kind of video I’ve been wanting 👌
Yay!!!
Yuliya, You are wonderful!! Thank you for this garden design series! So much helpful consideration and information.
I think your video is so good. I am trying to figure out what to do with my garden, now that I have taken out 3 big trees. I just did not know how to start. Can’t wait for your next design video!
hello with great respect from Iran... this series is amazing .. thx for share it with world :D
Y, This is awesome! I have found other You-Tubers who have covered or cover this topic, but I soon fade out or change the video. While my garden is a work in progress, I have installed many features without making a plan. However, I did consider many of the elements you are covering. And the way you are going about planning will help me greatly as I improve my space. Thanks!!!!
That sounds great!
I'm thinking of pursuing a career in green design as I think we need more of those in my country. If watching your videos is any indication, I'm actually looking forward to plan and design which is usually where I abandon my projects so new follower here! 💚
Thank you Thank you Thank you! This was GREAT Yulia! so great. Really appreciate your help. I can't wait to get started designing in my yard.
This is absolutely the BEST - you're a great teacher! Already I have more of an understanding & appreciation for the scope of what a landscape designer does for their clients. I've never seen this side of the business before & find this incredibly fascinating! So excited - can't wait for more videos! Thank you for your time in making this series for us - you're a true friend to all your subscribers. Hugs from Florida!
O my! thank you so much for this, I wasn't sure how this will be received and glad you like it. 😊
Thank you so much!
