Top tips on placing garden statues and a very cheeky trick to improve ANY
planting scheme (without needing to move a single plant!)
I like it 🙂 looking forward to see more of your lessons.
It would be interesting to see how to design large country home garden. Our
garden is about 8000 m2. I suppose that general approach is same. Link
different objects and etc. However there are differences.
I might watch this if the audio wasn’t garbage and only on the left speaker
:/
Thank you, nice episode about focal points, I am always inspired after
watching, I am very Greatfull
I`d sure love to see some ideas and plans for edible landscaping that incorporate items such as greenhouses, raised beds for growing vegetables, fruit trees & berry vines. You seem so busy now, but if you`re interested in utilizing my prairie landscape you are more than welcome!
