I love this video. So easy to understand. Can you please tell me what landscape software are you using?

You brilliantly simplified garden design for all of us. Your examples were varied and also detailed. Kudos. You helped me and I’m going to try on some aspects of my design I’m not happy with. I presume you used photoshop ? Really cool

💕💕💕💕💕

Thanks for your video. I have been slowly removing the grass in my 1 acre yard. Videos like yours help me to envision things I could do.

Yay, just discovered your channel and am sort of starting my gardening journey in MD. Not exactly sure what to start since the current garden plot will be knocked out sometime this year when we renovate.

Thank you for this wonderful video. It distills garden design down to the most important principles with explanations, humor and real-life examples. I don't understand my own garden, so that's principle 1 violated. I will now attempt to channel my inner Monet - after all, he first painted his garden with flowers before setting brush to canvas. Perennials last a long time, and I am beginning to appreciate that they deserve more than the "I can always move it later" approach. Perfect timing for a fun winter project! 🙂

So interesting!

This is such a great video! Very helpful guidelines and examples.

Native wildflowers provide a place to lay eggs, a meal for caterpillars, pollen for insects and seeds for birds. Using a chemical spray on public land should be illegal. If the Department of Transportation needs work for their employees, perhaps they could hand weed or collect seeds, not just mow and spray chemicals.

Great advice! I garden for the birds, which is quite different than being a butterfly gardener imo. 😊 However, the principles are similar...using native plants that are already adapted to the landscape. Because I am in an HOA, I chose to use native shrubs and plants and not perennial/annual flowers that have a tendency to look messy when too many are planted to achieve a cottage garden look (this also triggers neighbor complaints). As a senior, this is far less work because I chose shrubs that have beautiful blooms in the spring and fall. I am in zone 9b where May thru Sept is extremely hot, which puts the bloom cycle of the shrubs into dormancy until just before Thanksgiving.😂 More importantly, the shrubs and trees have edible berries for the birds which increases the fantastic show at the bird feeders. 🌴🌴🌴

I unfortunately started my garden with native perennials and now 5 years later that I don’t want to keep dividing them I am replacing quite a few with small native shrubs . I am struggling with placement of the shrubs since I have a very tiny piece of property and so many native shrubs go to over 3 feet.

Great demo … just subscribed

I like your ideas and video was fun to watch. Signs like “Polinator Friendly Garden” go a long way to help people understand or at least tolerate the season when things aren’t so beautiful. If I could do our street-side garden over I’d probably allow for a strip of lawn for between the native plants garden and street. (Folks love neat and tidy) However I’ve trimmed to keep the front foot short so it still has interest just not flopping onto the street.

What program are you using for designing?

Hello. What’s the name of the program you’re using? That would really help with developing my front and backyards.

Great video! Thanks for mentioning Yulia, she has been a great inspiration for many of us gardeners.

This is great! I’ve been adding natives to my yard over the last 5 years, and wish I’d had a plan from the beginning. I’m curious what app you’re using for designing. I’ve been searching for one that has native plants included. I love your videos. I completely agree that if we can make our native gardens appeal to our neighbors, they’ll hopefully start to plant them also!

Love this! And your Caroline Winkler mention is the crossover of my dreams.

First, I absolutely love your videos. Thank you. I really appreciate the sweet and kind attitude you have towards the idea of neighbours who object, since my attitude is generally “let them riot.” When designing my (tiny) front yard, I read about the landscaper Capability Brown, since my house is 170 years old and fits an antique aesthetic. It’s interesting how modern techniques are similar to what people did long ago. Keep doing what you’re doing! It’s wonderful.

I have one called Silver Nightshade, I thought of it as a weed, then read it’s a specialist for a native bee. Now I’ll let it settle in where it wants to live on the east side of the house.

This was very helpful, thanks! I’m in SE Arizona, so need a different plant mix, but concepts are still good.

I forgot to mention, I’m using an app called iScape to make these designs! It’s unfortunately not free, but it’s fun to work with and can even do virtual 3D designs!

I live in Alberta Canada and even though we are not in the same country, region or growing zone…I have learned so many things from your videos. I have been converting (every year I add more Native Alberta Plants) and expanding my flower beds (enlarging and making new flower beds…less lawn more plants ❤). Thank you for your great videos and helping the pollinators and birds.

I've seen forsythia in the understory of Eastern woodlands. Someone donated it to our pollinator garden before I learned it's invasive and not native. It's gotta go .

Monarchs were just announced as endangered. love your videos

I really love your channel. love your videos

love your videos!!!!!

let leaf litter lie! Merry Christmas 2024 & Happy New Year 2025. Thanks for posting throughout another great growing year

The juncos have returned, the owls are calling, and the fridge is full of seeds. Time to add more rows to next year's spreadsheet, and another column: goldfinch food Y/N.

lol you crack me up. Yes, I planted many specialist bee native plants just for the endangered specialists

my birds love beauty berry and there are native varieties of it as well.

wow, this video made me stop. What a beautiful way of continuing his impact in nature! thank you for what you do, and now I feel inspired! I'm also in Maryland and would love to join you on any garden adventures you may seek!!

That snake footage was nightmare fuel.....😮

Great info, thank you!

That is one chonky bee!

You know what This video gave me the modivation to start killing my lawn right now (It should be getting very snowy soon, last winter was weird and so it didn’t work right, but I’m going to use cardboard to help kill the grass over the winter, same spots as last time)

Very well done!

I recently joined the North Carolina Native Plant Society, because I would like to include native plants to my permaculture food forest in order to create biodiversity. I was not aware of this aspect of conservation and plant rescue. Thank you for this information. It will take my native planting to a whole new level.

Beautiful tribute and wonderful video. I love the work you are doing with this channel. Good stuff 😊

My mom's doing this to her garden :D she has those heath asters and purple asters interspersed with her roses. She also has a few golden rods planted everywhere. They look gorgeous in flower arrangements and the bees love them. And since we got so many bees, we ended up with an over abundance of produce from the backyard garden

Really enjoyed this video! You've put in impressive effort, and it’s great to see the quality here. I know how much effort goes into making videos like this, and it's inspiring to see your dedication. I work on TH-cam and offer services to help channels like yours grow even faster. If you’re interested in some tailored tips, feel free to replay. Keep up the awesome work!

Lovely and info packed. Thank you. A kindred spirit in Mo.

I've been collecting for years :)

We have converted about 30% of our yard to native plants so far. I find myself and my kids spending so much more time outside. I used to love to go to the local botanical gardens. Now I just go into the backyard.

So grateful for your sharing. Your channel is a breath of fresh air!

Just subscribed because I’m doing the same in my local area. Mainly just for a hobby but trying to find the lots that will be developed soon first to try and get the various native and even non native species I noticed the pollinators flock too. 2:34 as I type this is all so awesome!! Can’t wait to deep dive and watch more videos!! 🤙

This was inspiring! Steve inspired you, now you are passing it on. This is perfect timing too. I think I will get the children around me involved, at least on our property. Thanks for sharing this.

Keep your eye on vacant lots. I found one in September and collected a Solidago and a Eupatorium perfoliatum. 2 weeks later it was mowed.
