    Please get George what ever kind of gloves he wants NOW! No need to wait for a "special ocassion" to justify the purchase, just get them because he needs them now and you love him. The transformation was nice to see with all the steps involved. Sometimes people do not realize how hard gardening can be. You two work well together. I love watching your garden grow.

      Absolutely!! He can have any garden tool or glove he wishes, I couldn't have done that project without him. He's the bestest! Thank you so much💚

    The work George does is so meticulous! Nice job! And that it came together slowly over time is such an incentive to dream of my own special place in the garden.

    I have been waiting for this video for so long.. it is absolutely amazing! GEORGE is the man! That was some hard work George, you should definitely be very proud of what you’ve done. Patience and persistence paid off ! The maples, the other plantings, the cobblestone, the pathway AND drainage are just beautiful! I was looking to see where the pagoda moved to after you got your mini boulder in there! Steph, you are definitely blessed! & your work as well has paid off also. Great job you two! Can’t wait to watch and see how everything looks during 2024’s season! You guys are among my favorite garden channels on YT. Thank you for sharing with us! 😊♥️

    • @HookedandRooted
      @HookedandRooted  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Stacey! Thank you so very much for your kind words. I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Yes, it was a lot of hard work. But also so rewarding, and fun to do together. Lol the mini pagoda is currently overwintering in the shed. We bring in our little yard statues into the shed to keep them from cracking etc in the cold weather. I would love to get a bigger one at some point, I love the little pagoda. The stone was a great addition to the garden, George's persistence to move it paid off. Thank you so much for watching our videos, and for your wonderful comments. So glad to have you along 💚🥰

    Wow. Everyone needs a George around. That was labor intensive… great job! I can’t even get my husband to dig a hole. As a woman who has CFS, I’m proud to say I transformed my entire garden by myself. From lifting & placing rocks, laying pavers, digging, planting, transplanting & creating beds. My husband just enjoys my hard-work. So count your blessings Steph. You have a great man!

    • @HookedandRooted
      @HookedandRooted  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Thank you so much Sarah! I really wanted to show that part, that it takes time. When I was a newer gardener it wasn't so obvious that beautiful gardens take time to make and to mature. This often times makes the decision to start planting intimidating. My goal was to provide inspiration and encouragement. Thank you so much for your kind comment 💚🥰

    The before and after is amazing.... It makes me wish my husband and I were younger.... So we could DIY more than we do. But so thankful that we are able to pace ourselves to do a little every year. Your video shows me we will get there. Lol. I love your maples.

    George is such a hard worker! I love that you shared a real-life timeline. Sometimes projects take years and that's okay! Especially with kids and budgets. I can't wait to see the garden come to life in spring. 😊

    • @HookedandRooted
      @HookedandRooted  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Steph! He really is, we are lucky to have him. I try to share the realistic expectations of how long it takes to create gardens, especially when we do all of it ourselves in an effort to save money. It can be done, but takes time. The outcome is well worth it. Thank you so much for your comment, and for watching. We're almost there!! Only 21 more days until spring. The feeling is already in the air 💚🌱

    @sydneykasmar 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    That was amazing to watch George. Who knew that a couple of Japanese Maples given as a gift would draw out of you so much interest, time and attention to all the needs necessary to create one of the nicest Japanese Maple gardens I've ever seen. Beautiful and masterful.

    The transformation of the play area into the Japanese maple garden was amazing! George thought through all the steps of the project, and he worked so hard to complete it. Yes, definitely add some stones at the little drainage pipe exit. That Japanese maple garden looked so stunning in the fall in front of all the woodland trees! You guys did a great job! I enjoyed seeing all the parts of the project in one video, even though I had seen bits and pieces in the course of your other videos.

I have expanded my garden in the backyard and incorporated an arch and I need a beautiful pathway from my backyard gate to the garden! I’m still hoping you will be able to show us how to sow seeds for pink Gomphrenas. I wonder if they could be sown directly into the garden after the frost is gone?

This is something I would like to do and this will help me immensely in the planning and implementation going forward.

    BRAVO!! 👏 what you and George have created is spectacular. I’ve never seen the start to finish of this Japanese Maple garden before. You got some really great deals on stones and cobbles. I need to go to offer up and marketplace more. George is such a hard worker. He reminds me of my dad, who was also such a hard worker too and everything had to be just so.

    This is absolutely gorgeous! A TON of work but the payoff is so stunning! I live in what has always in my gardening life a done 4b.. southern MN and they recently moved us to 5a and would so love to try a Japanese Maple but am just a bit gun shy to pull that trigger yet. A Japanese Maple is an investment so I think I need to think about it and plan a space that would be perfect for it! Thank you for a video that was so informative!!!

    George is a pro, his work is so meticulous; done right and thinks of all aspects. Installing drainage was key and how he planned this out to where the flag stones were all level took much thought, work and patience. All and all, this is one excellent area. I love the trees. Hope you have linked the name of each. Thanks for making this video; have a good day.

    • @HookedandRooted
      @HookedandRooted  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much!! I agree with you, he is really a hard worker with great attention to detail. So much so, that when he does something don't ever expect for it to fall apart. When we built our home, to save some money we installed our own tile backsplash in the kitchen. He did such a great job that 10 years later when we decided to install a bigger window in the kitchen (which he also did!), and used the opportunity to update the backsplash, he had to rip out all the drywall since the tile was installed a little too good lol. Thanks for watching, and have a great rest of your week!
