We're Yanks, love the accent. Our gravel had no compact base-you are absolutely right. Thanks for the tip.

A contractor was supposed to put a gravel path in the shady side alley between mine and my neighbors house where much of the grass has died. He put some metal edging and is putting gravel right on top of the dirt which is muddy in parts. He didn’t really dig down much, maybe an inch in some areas, but I’m worried the gravel will sink down over time and the mud come up. Can laying down crushed stone help? Update: the contractor was a con artist. Actually artist is a nice word. He was just a con. Gravel did end up sinking in parts. In some areas it sunk down where the fake French drain pipe he installed got crushed by it. Follow this video and do it the right way

Thank you Chris, this is exactly the same issue we have with the path we just had made. 4cm of gravel but with no base. It's like walking on the beach. But there is landscape fabric under the gravel to stop weeds penetrating. If I do what you suggest with the hardcore, should I remove the fabric or will the hardcore still pack down and stay put if I leave the fabric where it is?

Where is the landscape fabric?

Will rain pour wash down away pebbles....

Thanks good

Hi. I have done a similar pathway but I am now dealing with many weeds in the path. Any suggestions?

Hi sir, how long does this pathway last? And does it need regular maintenance and if it does need maintenance then how often? Also is it a viable pathway if subjected to regular foot traffic such asin schools? Thank you

So you were cutting this native hedge in October? Presumably to make sure that there were no birds nesting, which is great. QUESTION: most native hedge plants flower in early spring in the previous year growth, therefore by cutting in October you are actually removing a lot, if not all, of the flowering buds which will leave the pollinators without flowers and the birds without berries next year! Am I wrong??

Hi , nice to see your videos about bee conservation . I am also a pollinator conservationist from India . Keep in touch always . Go Green . Save Earth .

9:54 The world started going downhill when humans started referring to insects as pests. Without insects, humans would die in a very short space of time but without humans, insects would thrive. A sobering thought for all you people who think insects are 'pests.'

crushed stone vs sand vs cinder...hm.m.. 'bout the same, yeah?

Seems more about the gardener than the garden.

Good jee video

🌹🥀🌷💐 very very nice jee hy hallo jee

best line: watch and learn 🤣🤣🤣

Looks lovely, I'm going to do something similar. What soil typewas in the container to begin with please?

beautiful 😍

It’s so pretty there. Why do the people dress like California surfer SLOBS? I want to see your neat and tidy English citizen costume.

Walker’s Low Nepeta isn’t really low at 24”-30” inches. Whispurr white and Purrsian blue are lower along with Little Trudy.

Yay, another lady with dirty pants. I’m the only one I know with dirt on my pants all the time from working in the dirt. I appreciate you not changing for the camera 😄

yor are so pretty!

I've been meaning to do this again and again and kept forgetting! Thank you for the reminder and showing me some tricks I didn't even know yet! Love these videos, Katie!

Hi, Do I need a permit for a gravel pathway in my backyard? N.B. If its already done what should I do since the city has to come in the future for a gazebo inspection?

I have a new build. The garden is 5 meters across and 14 meters down. Can you recommend a tree that will fit in that space?

Thanks for the tutorial! And also for letting me know Bob's my uncle

Have you no garden hose ?

Great video. Can you do this on a down slope, instead of doing a stepped path? I suppose it depends on how steep the slope is?

Great info Katie always glad to watch you come up with a beautiful garden.

why did you give up?

Love it. Can you add a final step? Cover with thin layer of cement powder and wet with hose? Purpose would be to lock down the stones so they might "glue" and hold together. Otherwise gravel ends up all in your grass overtime really want to mitigate that. Thanks

No sound

The problem is smooth stones were used instead of crushed rock, which would have avoided the slippage caused by smooth stones. With crushed rock, you stabilize it by tamping it down. Tamping causes the facets of the rocks to align and wedge together, eliminating the slippage of smooth stones. Never make a pathway using rounded stones.

Wacker

How do you weed the path without chemicals?

What if Quickrete cement was brushed in instead of crushed stone?

Thanks so much for such a clear tutorial on taking Rose cuttings. Will definitely be trying this 🌹

The layout is giving me ideas for a garden that I am re-doing. I like the concept of thinking in triangles. I want to introduce more evergreens to provide the winter interest and balance the annuals in the summer . 🌸❤️🇨🇦

An amateur here, does anyone know the American name for the whaker machine? Thanks!

Very well explained cheers!

So lovely, it would be helpful if there was a list of everything you put in here.

Great valuable video full of lots of tips and tricks. Thank you for sharing.

Hendon tripod ladders are my favourite

Come do my garden Katie 😍

I was on the understanding that cumfrey has the long roots, does borage have the same?

vot.fyi great

Absolutely beautiful Alpine Planter , really nice one

Definitely not a video on a budget. These mature shrubs probably cost in excess of £1000. Of course it cannot fail to impress straight away.

What a great post !! Love it do much, thanks !💖

Love this ! 🥰
