As always....you demonstrate what a hard worker you are & no, no one said gardening wasn't hard work! Not after watching you. Can't wait for the next installment. 💚
Hi Alex from Western Australia. Negotiation should always be first, I think and the Ivy (personally hate the plant) will strangle, kill the trees and might fall over in a big storm. This garden is a garden of discovery, at least the spiders aren’t Australian spiders 😮. You don’t need to go to the gym, this garden is a muscle builder. Fantastic work you’re doing. Keep well. Lynn.
That was some serious hard graft, well done Alex. The whole area looks so much better than it was when you guys started on it, amazing the amount of garden they’ll get back once it’s cleared & you get the tree work done. Now have a relaxed weekend, rest your back! 😺
This video is great, it's made me realise how much work I've done as I was feeling like I wasn't getting anywhere. My 90 year old mum has a 120foot garden that hasn't been touched for twenty years, and I've been attempting to landscape it and make it accessible for her. I discovered she had put down black membrane years ago which she'd then covered in old tiles and stones and general rubbish, and it's been one hell of a job to get half a foot of heavy rubbish and soil off a membrane so I could pull it out. Underneath was masses of bindweed.
I am right there with you. I am in Southern BC Canada and the bane of my existence is pine needles. 40 billion of them in my yard. Good news is that all I have to do is rake them. No digging out required although I did think English Ivy was a good idea a few years ago. Not! It took over and I'm still ripping it out. Thanks for the tips on how best to tackle the stuff. It is pretty and green but INVASIVE for sure. Thanks for the awesome videos. Really enjoy how you do your job. It really is an art. Hard work, but stunning results. Cheers!
Hi Alex, Wow, that is Some Massive Ivy, You did a Great Job for only 1 person!! Yes will be waiting for the Next Video of you Continuing your Journey of of this Owner`s yard after the complaint!! It may take you 2 more parts to finish it! Take care & Be safe, & have a Lovely Weekend with your Family, Love from Central Illinois America🥰😎✌❤
I honestly realize the amount of really hard work you are doing to try and make this look better. If I were doing it, everything would be cut to the ground and start over with quality garden plan. Everything there is basically over grow and not worth the effort to make it look great again. JMHO Thumbs Up!
My neighbour had ivy growing on his side and he refused to maintain it. I hated it on my side as it would suffocate my garden. So one time I cut it ALL back. Every single bit of it on my side of the fence. Neighbour watched me do it too. Then started getting upset a few days later when he noticed it dying on his side. It was an invasive species and was told by the town to kill it off and dog it up but he refused. I just kept cutting it back. Last year we built a huge privacy fence and he finally dug up all the ivy and burned it
Wow! What a job! .....I’m thinking I don’t like ivy....don’t know if we have it here, but I know I don’t want it now ! You will persevere! 👊🏼 - watching from Lake Wales, Florida
Major difference. Lots of hard work, but worth it. That ivy is the worst. Thanks for the tip on getting the roots out. That will help with my little problem. ❤️ can’t wait for the next video. Get some rest, and I’ll see you next time.
This reminds me of cleaning up vines for 3 weeks in the backyard. They still emerge sometimes but instantly pull them. Crazy how fast they can take over a yard.
Appreciate your attitude towards the neighbour but the ivy is going to choke everything eventually, I was dying to cut off the first tree . Great work . Followed the series and watched in amazement as garden gradually reappeared. Looking forward to next instalment.
I cut back Ivey on a rent house I was living in in Tulsa. It’s a never ending battle if you don’t dig up the roots. I enjoyed doing it even though I had decided not to buy the beautiful bungalow. The Ivey had been buried there in the 60’s & the roots were as big as my arm. As long as the neighbor keeps the Ivey on the fence, it’ll be an ongoing problem. The only saving grace is that it will one day rot the fence & when they replace it, maybe they can dig it up
You must be so sore. That is an intense workout. I admire your work ethic. Most landscapers would either refuse the job or start it and just give up. You are truly tenacious and are an an inspiration. I am sure that the owners are worried about cost but in my opinion you are worth a million dollars or pounds (whichever is more)! They have to compensate you to rectify years and years of neglect. May God bless you and keep you safe and healthy.
@H⭕hmW🌐rk Your logic is so flawed 😅 if it's 1 USD = 0.82 Pounds, that means that the pound is more valuable because it takes less of it to equal the same value.
My opinion it the trees and bushes on my side are in dire need of trimming,then it goes.the neighbors will have to plant their own Ivey on their side to make them happy.just saying.your doing a great job comparison to what you started with.kudos 👍👍👍😎😎😎🌳🌲🌳
Wowww nice job 👍. I see your wearing a jacket, look cold over there nice we here heat hot weather here 🥵. Texas has crazy weather. Blessings to you and your family stay safe and well 🌳🥰🤗
Miss your singing Alex….great work today, will you be able to remove the ivy from the mature trees? That fence is hanging in by a prayer too! Pace yourself! 🌿🦋🌈🌸
I consider ivy a weed. It climbs all over fences, trees, even up the side of our house if we let it. It can look quite pretty and it’s fine if you want a jungle in the back garden but it will strangle things and become a part of / destroy a fence. Species like this are a problem when two neighbours have opposing views because such species do not respect boundaries.
Great video, I wonder if the next door neighbour was just trying to make best out of a bad situation and didn’t want to say anything. They make truly appreciate the light in their garden and would love the ivy to be gone. Hopefully you can catch up with them next time. Good job 😊
As someone who has been battling English Ivy, blackberries (or brambles as you call them), and Holly for years in my steep garden in Victoria Australia, I really feel for you! Though to be honest I'm resentful that these plants were imported in the first place. They are all terrible invasive here. especially the brambles. and don't get me started on thistles- I have had to face thistles as big as Christmas trees - truly! over 5 ft tall, and those thorns!
I was washing up all the stuff brought down from my teenage daughter’s bedroom whilst watching this video. I loathe washing up but I was thinking to myself, don’t complain - you could be pulling up ivy which is way worse 😂
This is the most disgusted I’ve ever heard you on a job site. This one really got to you; and I see why. I don’t think this garden was ever maintained. You’ve certainly put your heart & soul into this one. 😊❤
Good to see you, TH-cam is finally working out what I like to watch. Love the gardening channels, but this is on a whole other level. Well done ! Back breaking for sure. Can't wait to see what you turn it into. It is a lovely spot and will be I am sure.
My old man grew ivy up his house years ago (stupid I know) so after many years and because he couldn't maintain it anymore, it grew inside the eaves and roof etc so I found the main root and axed it..left it a few months to die back then peeled it off the structure.. bloody hate the stuff..as for spiders! Try doing that in Sydney Australia.. funnel web territory...
Hi Alex from Canada. Fantastic job you are doing. I love the way you work with attention to detail. The ivy looks like something out of a horror movie.......... Looking forward to the next episode. Take care and stay safe.......... Sylvia
Let the neighbor know you will be removing the ivy from this side and if it has not rooted on his side it will eventually die and turn brown. That is all you can do for hi
UGGGGGGHHHHH this job is brutal 😵💫. There is no joy when when you’re trying to eradicate ivy. But I was sharing the triumph of every clump of roots you muscled out 😂👏👏👏👏💚💚💚.
Hi - this is what happens - when folks plant - too close to the fence- each neighbor - has a different view - as to - what looks or would be best for their side - Love Your Channel -
That yard is a challenge. My arms ache from watching you work that shovel. I hope you had some rest time after that. Can't wait until the next yard saga. I had this urge just to bulldoze down those trees, take off 6 inches of the top soil and replace it. Clear the canvas.
New subscriber here me old (young) mate. Fellow gardener too.. I felt your pain there.. those sort of scratching around with a rake jobs where you've established creepers like the ivy running amok, it never really ends does it?! 😂 You always seem to find more litter/roots/debris with every pull of the rake.
Where I live, if the roots are on your side cut it! Also, if it hangs or grows on your side cut it! Ivy will kill whole trees if it's not continually maintained! Had to use a rototiller to get all the roots enough to eliminate it.
After watching the video I realised the neighbour didn't complain.....hopefully you talked to them first and they were happy to see the ivy wall gone too.
Great work and transformation of the place, there are micro diggers going which can fit though door ways of houses, just to let you know, but your doing a great job without
Ivy is 👍🏻 for wildlife but not if you care about your other 🌱 & 🌲. Let’s hope that Alex will be able to get somewhere with the neighbour. 😮💨 Alex has a tough job on his 🤚🏻
@@joyceflowershed It does depend on the tree. Ivy increases wind loading which can damage big old trees. Some like Oaks survive high winds because they are deciduous (shed their leaves in winter).
Vy jim tím čištěním tak zvětšujete pozemek, že z toho budou mít za chvilku fotbalové hřiště 😂 Jste úžasně poctivý v práci. Já vždy jen žasnu. Klobouk dolů. 👍👏👍👏🌿🤗
If it is in my garden I would have the evy out completely. If the neighbours want evy on their side that’s up to them, but for me the evy would have to go. Great work clearing did similar this time last year and it has made such a difference to my own fence side. Keep up the awesome job.
I like your overall vision for the space and am looking forward to its manifestation. Do you think you will dig up the rocks and re-establish them as garden bed borders? Thanks. 🫶
HI Alex, you've got a christmas dilemma "the holly and the ivy", where's your partner in crime? Some good fire wood there. Maybe if you trim too much ivy the fence will collapse. Then I'm thinking if you turf that area that will require ongoing maintenance, perhaps better for the owner to leave it bare or to mulch it with a really thick layer of wood chips, as for gardening not being a work out can have only been said by someone who has never done it, 🥰🥵👍💪🐦great effort cheers!!
The best thing for everyone concerned we be to remove the lot put up a new fence and just have lawn. No more future expenses in the long run. Just a thought !!
06:54 ish - where the ivy has grown and wrapped itself around the trunk of the tree ... get a saw and make two cuts through the thick stem of the ivy, maybe 10cms apart, and remove the cut section completely. The ivy above will wither and die over the next few months, and will be much easier to remove in future visits.
It looks so much better! Foot by foot or is that meter by meter? Anyway that was so much work!! You did such a great job so far. I look forward to seeing how it all comes out. Take care of you ;)
Thing is, at least in USA. if it is on your Property. Limbs, ivy, plants growing over onto your Side. You can Cut it back to Your Property Line. As Long as it does not Compromise like Tree Roots where it might kill a tree or perhaps make the tree Fall or completely Kill a Plant.
Same in the UK. You can cut anything that comes into your garden up to the property boundary. But it's still best to be polite and inform neighbours about what you are doing. Don't want to get lawyers involved!....and people can be 'funny'.
Good tip about going along the surface with the Ivy roots then doing a chop , I'm wondering if this method would do a good job with Bamboo.My neighbours Bamboo has just gone mad & started to grow under the fence , through the fence into my garden & is taking over in my border🫤 I've tried to dig it out but it's very hard , so maybe your method with the Ivy would work on the Bamboo, hope so 😤 Thanks for your tips, keep going with your head down 😊

So much work, but you are really making progress and it is looking ever so much better.
Thank you!
I find watching you gardening very therapeutic, it’s a shame it didn’t spear me on to get up and do mine 😂😂

Where I live, if the roots are on your side cut it! Also, if it hangs or grows on your side cut it! Ivy will kill whole trees if it's not continually maintained!
Had to use a rototiller to get all the roots enough to eliminate it.
It's amazing how big the yard is now that most of the vegetation is gone.
I know wait until next weeks vid lots of stuff cleared
I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next week!

Great work and transformation of the place, there are micro diggers going which can fit though door ways of houses, just to let you know, but your doing a great job without
You should cut the Ivy back. If you leave it then it will keep growing over the other side and the neighbour will be forever trying to keep it at bay.
Ivy is 👍🏻 for wildlife but not if you care about your other 🌱 & 🌲. Let’s hope that Alex will be able to get somewhere with the neighbour. 😮💨 Alex has a tough job on his 🤚🏻
It can also damage other trees. That's one way to sell the idea of removing it to a neighbour.
@ColinWatters have Ivy growing up my cherry trees no damage, it is just a support system for the ivy..😊
Also the wildlife love it.

This has been extremely difficult so far. It looks like the ivy is holding the shorter fence erect.
Problem solved for most older men 🤣
So much work!!!
Tough job, but you're winning, it will look great when finished
In my opinion it all needs removing. And that fence has seen better days. Keep up the good work
Thank you 😊
@@acreslawncare I think the only thing really holding up that fence is the ivy on the neighbor’s side.
Wow that's hard work well done x
