- Bunny undertakes a revamp of the entrance courtyard, giving one of her topiary chickens a Very special perch. She explains why she loves the use of tree seats and how she uses a variety of designs in her gardens, using a range of materials from inexpensive plywood and woven hazel to bespoke metal like the one she uses here.
Although Bunny plans to use bound Breedon Gravel here, in her inner courtyard she shows how loose gravel can soften a hard paving design and guides us through her Top 5 favourite plants for gravel. All are easy to grow and will tolerate sun or shade.
Bunny then shows us her ongoing project to create a Growing Arbour, formed from two existing box balls and two bay standards that she has allowed to merge. Having re-utilised a redundant 20 year old arbour, she shows how to train the hedging so that it will form around the framework, allowing enough space for a small seat for two underneath.
Finally Bunny shows what a difference two months has made to the box hedge that she heavily chopped back in her May Highlights video. Regeneration pruning at its best!

Thank you so much Bunny, I always am so motivated when I watch your videos. I often watch or listen to your videos while I am in the garden
......and my, newly, bottomless pots are a delight
Another very interesting video Bunny. The tree seat will look fabulous with the yew behind it .
I just love your videos
You never disappoint with your videos Bunny, thank you. Love the tree seat .
I do SO agree with you!! I LOVE tree seats and would allow NO ONE to tell me any different!
wonderful to be in your garden with you, thank you Bunny!
Your garden is lovely and inspiring. I find your videos to be the most informative of many of the garden videos on TH-cam. My husband and I are so happy we have found you. My children would like to create some bird/duck topiaries for our little "duckling garden." I live in New England and hope to visit one of you lovely garden design when we are once again able to travel.
Why did the Chelsea judges say tree seats weren't convivial? I think they are brilliant and work well in a smaller garden (where they are the focal point). This is because they can turn the focal point into a vantage point also, where you can enjoy your garden from a different perspective. When my mum had eye surgery and had to be careful to avoid direct sunlight, our tree seat was brilliant because she could sit in the tree seat on a fine summer's day, partly shaded by the tree, and move around the seat, following the shade, as the day went on.
I was late with some bolted lettuce and the birds LOVE it, landing on it and eating the seeds. I left it for them.
Bunny, it's very interesting. I love your garden..)
So blessed to see your videos. Keep doing what you do so well.
Another fascinating video, many thanks Bunny👏👏
Agreed !
Love your garden they all look fantastic. 🥀
Thank you Bunny for sharing so many awesome tips! As always I get so much inspiration from your awesome knowledge and talents! I loved the tree seat with the cement balls so maybe I can integrate this into my garden too! Thanks for the awesome tips growing arches and all the plant names. May you have a wonderful day.
Wonderful job! You never disappoint!
This is a beautiful setting & landscaping. Awesome buildings too. However, it saddens me greatly that it is yet another old farm taken over by non-farmers for their own pleasures. Farms should remain farms. It is the most important industry, & character.
Interesting point. We have the large old stone barns but the big working farm next-door has modern farm buildings. The problem is traditional stone barns are not great for livestock due to the lack of ventilation, they are too small for modern huge agricultural kit - the farmer who had them before us converted one barn into office storage because of this. We do keep some animal feed and hay etc in a bit of one though for our pigs, cows, chickens and sheep. There are few traditional barns left - many are converted into housing, but I think they are fabulous buildings when just preserved but it is a shame they can no longer be used for what they were intended for originally but life moves on. 🐂🐖🐑🐓🐇
Lovely to see your garden projects, I adore tree seats. I've been changing many areas and have also added many new areas this year, as they say; a gardener's work is never done. Thanks for sharing.
so adorable
Beautiful
Hello Bunny, Greetings from Windermere, Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸
Hot 90°F and sticky 80 -95% humidy.
We have another 8 week until autumn 🍂 and a break.
I love your knowledge and your gardening approach. Brilliant !
I had euphorbia sap in my once . Excruciating ! K
Thanks Bunny
This old bird, nay Bunny you are not that old, and you look fantastic. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you! Great video once again!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Great video and tips, thank you Bunny !
Thank you for sharing!! I really appreciate your insight. And really enjoy the content.
Another lovely programme and thank you, Bunny - my gravel area is in for a treat! :)
WHY HAS BUNNY NOT GOT HER OWN TV SERIES???
Thank you🌻
I’m still saving bunnykins….one day I will be able to afford your services ….I am such a dreamer!
lovely video
Am I missing Bunny on tv? We need more Bunny!
Why? You have her on TH-cam...??? Throw your tv away. It is fall of propagander.
That white umbellifera reminded me of chervil that seeds freely in our garden.
Yes I wonder if it's rough chervil?
Bunny would you show us your competion gardens someday ?
The round tree seat is so lovely
A lovely video again, I had a similar plant/weed grow last year between some slabs in gravel, at the time I thought it looked lovely and left it in bloom. Needless to say it seeded and covered my entire gravel slab area, weeds were popping up everywhere, I not sure what it was but I'm calling it a weed because its went everywhere I didn't want it too. I think I've finally got it under control again now. Be careful what you wish for lovely flowers can soon turn into a lot of hard work.
I love the bench design❣️ Cindy from Houston, Texas
Just sorting the gravel and planting around it now so it looks more ‘bedded in’ 🐇
Lovely video - thank you! Is it Queen Anne's Lace [Wild Carrot] - Daucus carota? You are so right, it's wonderful in the garden. I've collected the seed and spread it everywhere! Fingers crossed!
No queen Anne’s lace is larger flower clusters that are much flatter.
Always fabulous! I love tree seats. Fancy being marked down for using it in your designs...some people are just garden snobs!🤣 Love your videos and common sense approach to gardening!
👌👍
Hi Bunny, I am happy I've found your channel with such excellent content and tips. Your hands-on and down-to-earth approach totally captivated my interest. The taming of your farm yard has certainly worked, everything looks pristine. I would like to know how you maintain the areas covered with gravel leveled and remarkably weed-free?
Hello
The plant looks like Burnet Saxifrage (Pimpinella Saxifraga).It is a perennial British native wildflower.
Your Cephalaria gigantea looks much better in gravel than mine did in a richly manured bed (far too many leaves flopping over everything else in the bed!). Even though the bees adored it, I dug mine out this Spring. I wish I'd seen this video before, because I might have planted one of its many seedlings into a large pot of gravelly soil as an experiment.
I put your mystery plant into the Picture This app and it came up with Spotted Hemlock! Cicuta maculata. A friend for your poisonous euphorbia !
I'd have planted a citrus tree in the tree seat then lavenders around the tree and under, behind the seat. I would also plant a lot more citrus trees, lavender, gardenias etc in that sheltered court yard.
I wonder if that umbelliferae is sweet cicely? Whatever it is, I agree, it looks lovely.
I love your TH-cam ,that is a fantastic arbor ,If I have one of this, I will painting purple and instead of filling out with plant I will make a semi circle sitting are or a day bed, so you don't lose the beautiful design of this architectural element , an maybe use some Jasmin, morning glory, or any plant that wont bother you when you lay down. Just a thought.
Cephalaria spreads in my garden but I mostly like it 😉
I’m jealous - I wish mine did! 🐇
Thank you so much Bunny. Question about the euphorbia, can I pot it? I have a very tiny butterfly garden but can add pots on the driveway, aha! Beautiful garden!
Yes it would do well in a pot but please wear gloves when you pot it up!🐇
@@bunnyguinness Thank you. Will glove up! cheers
I have an Ancient horse chest nut Tree I need a seat like that. (Tree seat)
I’m not sure where to get one from 🤔 your DIY looks good.
The gravel will sound lovely, fab ideas thank you.
I love the chick topiary, I have always wanted to do this, do you suggest a certain boxwood? So glad I found your channel, I’m in zone 5 in the US…you home is stunning.
Many thanks for kind comments. I am just starting to use the new blight resistant box from Betterbuxus in Belgium. They have bred 4 varieties all a bit different. See my video on this for all the info, New Blight Resistant Box an exclusive. 🐇
'Irishman's cuttings' - I am surprised some precious soul with too much time on their hands hasn't taken offence at this and tried to have it banned.
I had to look it up. Turns out I do it several times a year😀
@@birds-and-blooms So did I. I also use the technique, I just didn't know it had a name
Lovely Video! Check out for Chaerophyllum temulum maybe? Take pictures from the plant, flower, stem, leaves. There are plant identification sides. Europen umbelliferae are hard to identify - some are tastefull some are deadly poisonous. I bought some in a very good nursery as unknown Beauty - cause no one could identify. Hope you will get the Name soon - I‘m curious. 🧐
I love your clipped trees- are they stone oak? Good idea with the chicken in the Nest.
looks really good....but Yew has horrendous memories for myself as a horse I owned broke into a cottage garden and died of yew poisoning. Is box toxic to animals?because that could be an alternative.
I have fabulous blue stone gravel.... semi tropical Corfu Greece..rains 56 inchs.in winter....I want lush at my edges...mmmm..love low daisy type...long lives..??? Need ideas.
Does the mystery plant smell of anise?
not Queen Anne's lace?
16:14
the plant looks very similar to the conopodium majus or one of its "flavours" ?
Many thanks I’ll check it out🐇
12:45 Could it be Caraway?
Aah I’ll see if it sets seeds - the smell of them should be a giveaway - many thanks 🐇
@@bunnyguinness It might be anthriscus sylvestris.
Your biennial looks like Angelica.
No it’s not, I know that plant well and love it . But thanks for the suggestion. Have propagated lots of anonymous up from seed so will no doubt discover its name one day!🐇
i want talk to with you dear
wait. Not convivial???!!! WTH is not convivial about encouraging people to gather 'round a tree and enjoy the company of one another and the tree, or to take a rest and observe the parks or gardens around them? I really admire British garden design but anecdotes like that make Chelsea sound incredibly stuffy and totally irrelevant. Hmmmmm. I chafe at all types of "man made rules" and judgements. LOL. I love tree seats.
