    I’m really hoping you invest in the river stone mosaic around the fountain. You will never go back and change it if you don’t. But you will be so happy if you do it. Spend the $ and do it. It will be amazing ❤❤❤❤. Grazie da Texas come sempre

    Alla, my husband and I have been watching your videos for years now. We absolutely enjoy both of you. You are both so talented! My husband and I have been married for 41 years and we are a team. You and Sergi make a very good team together. Everything is coming together, little by little you’re chipping away at each project. The garden is absolutely beautiful! And that Song, did you write it? Is it you singing it? I absolutely loved it, your voice, the words, just everything about it! As a gardener myself, I had to laugh, and smile, as it is a fight at times for sure.I love your sweet spirit, and your spunky attitude. That’s how you two have accomplished so much, you just do it. Thank you, we actually look forward to your videos every day. We watch them while we eat dinner. Thank you for working so hard on your videos too, it shows. You are a special young lady, and Sergi is such a wonderful husband to you. Do you have a CD of your song that can be purchased? Thank you, this video made us smile. Your Mommy must be so proud 💜

    I don't often comment, but feel I must today. You are so inspirational!!!! I have followed you from the start and just can't believe what you have achieved, and the tasks you have tackled and completed, which so many others would just have walked away from. I love, love, LOVE your song. Are you singing it or just the composers? I am from Melbourne, Australia and often watch on my computer as I eat my breakfast. Occasionally I have struggled to swallow my mouthful as you zoom in on slugs! Like yourself, I completely despise them, lol. As for agapanthus, they grow here like weeds and people can't give them away! I was surprised when you paid so much for yours, but you are making me appreciate them more....maybe it's a matter of how we use them - your single plant in a pot might be the way. Congratulations on all you have achieved. You are one of my favourite channels and I always look forward to seeing a new notification from you.

    Please do something to combat the slugs. Ya know slugs are like pigeons, (Home-ing-like). They will never go away. I would do everything in my power to get some ground clear. Also, don't put the rose bud remains back in, just toss them in the trash. Also please be careful about the flowers you bring in for vases. Place a sheet of white paper under your vase. Check it in a few hours, there could be parasites on the flowers. I once had this happen when I cut some wild flowers from the side of the road. :)

I love the pond addition, please make sure all cats and creatures are gone before you fill it with fish. Your garden is perfect, I know some people were commenting that you have enough plants, I thought that as well until you did a shot from above, it is beautiful. Amore da N.Y.
