Another wonderful video! My small woodland garden is slowly taking over. I’m finding it much easier to care for than the flower beds. It’s cooler, has fewer weeds and more wildlife. Thank you!
Really, really enjoyed this woodland idyll. We are fortunate enough to have a patch of oaks, rhododendrons, and azaleas as common ground in our neighborhood. To that we’ve added a lot of hosta. I think its mostly a dry shade area with strong sun ☀️ at the margins of the space. Mulch really helps it be more habitable. The area is large enough for a couple different micro climes.
Eventually we hope the whole area will function as a rain garden and prevent runoff when it storms. Also we’re making it pollinator friendly in the sunny spots. So far the milkweed seedlings are surviving. 🌼
I very much enjoyed this video, Alexandra. It was great to see an established English woodland garden! Among various shrubs of all sizes, I have one rhododendron and one Azalea in my woodland garden. I have been careful to give them loads of water over the summer to encourage flowers. The rhododendron has plenty of nice big buds and healthy leaves. The azalea started flowering in early autun. It is called Azalea Aline and has a lovely white flower. The azalea flowers look beautiful, however the leaves were attacked by Lacebug so I clearly didn't pay enough attention as I thought not much would happen until late winter. I have sprayed the leaves with a homemade soapy solution containing rosemary, lavender and clove oils and that seems to have stopped the bugs, for now. I have one huge semi-deciduous Chinese elm tree that is providing the shade and have been having fun creating a woodland path. It is all very young however and truly a work in progress. :)
I'm planning to make my own woodland garden based on famous children's stories, which is toxic free and child-at-play friendly. This video helped me form a picture in my mind based on what I already know about gardening AND the philosophy behind this - and you deliver that philosophy in the narrative very well. Thanks for taking the time to make this! Honestly, I watched it twice because the first time I zoned out daydreaming looking at the pretty landscapes!!! Quite inspiring.
These videos are so enjoyable. Beautiful pictures and great information presented in a lovely way. I’m really curious to what kind of trees are shown in the video at 4:10 and 4:20?
Nice and creative Videos，I can see A lot of thought has been put into the content and editing of the video， This is really my favorite channel.:) .🌴🌴🌴excellent 👍👌👍👌👍 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 Rowland 2020
I have a question. I have a situation on big deep old woods that have never seen any care. The leafs can be about 18inch deep and nothing growing. I can’t burn. It feels like cardboard when u walk on it. What can I do for things to grow? Thanks
This was such an amazing video. So much great information and beautiful ideas. Thank you so much. My garden is in Tasmania.
This is a woodland paradise!

Thank you!
How lovely - yes, you're right - I didn't see too many weeds in the Woodland garden - I think perhaps not quite light enough for some of them.
True, I hated the orange flowers of a Berberis darwinii
in the sunny front border, but after moving it into the shade of a fence it's fine.
That's interesting
Very nice! We are creating a secret garden and i feel lots of trees and shrubs will help in our goal. Thank you!

Woodland gardening is my favorite
Thank you!
How lovely!
I notice that the best views seem to have that "vanishing path" look. That's something I'm going to try to do.
im planning on restructuring the plain lawns in my school so this will help with a proper designs
Thank you!
Wow - what a garden. You've managed to show it really well - you get a real feel of the scale and atmosphere of this gorgeous garden!
Thank you - and that's just the Woodland area - I'll cover the other parts in other videos at some point.
Fabulous. I love woodland plants. I even have a rhododendron growing in a pot indoors. Happy gardening weekend!
Thank you- I used to take rhododendrons for granted but they are astonishing flowers

It sounds beautiful and that's a good tip about the soapy solution with rosemary, lavender and clove oils.
Beautiful. Thank you.
Your video inspires me. I absolutely adore your content.

What is the name of the tree at 4:18 ?
Does anyone know what the name of the tree shown at 04:08 - 04:16 ?
