We went all out on this build & the materials we used are in the description for those that are up for the challenge 💪 But if you’re looking for a way to scale this idea down a bit, consider using a raised bed kit ( https://low.es/2WuB5ut ) or building your raised beds out of lumber: https://youtu.be/xC_Wa7OvuIg
Ugliest, most artificial garden I ever seen! Ah ah
How to make a garden… Proceed to use thousands of dollars in equipment, pointless video
Love this English garden it turned out beautiful!❤️
Neverever use landscape fabric!
Nice
Just wow! Love it!!!🌿🌿🌿🌼🌸🌺🌹🌿🌿🌿
Could I do this for a vegetable garden
Watching this seems impossible for me since I live near the Amazon
I'm not sure how 811 utility finder works in all places, but be aware that in some areas they only locate utilities to your property line from the street. They may not come onto your property which is where you need the information if you are building a project! I live in Kennewick, WA and the utilities companies would only mark the utilities up to my property line. My project was inside my property quite a ways as my house is at the back of a one acre lot! So 811 was basically useless for me! They told me that I would have to hire a private company to come and locate within my property line!! I was on a tight budget and couldn't afford the private company fees so I ended up just winging it and just digging VERY, VERY carefully!
An English style garden 🤣 a semi cottage style planting scheme with a formal, reneaissance'esk design is certainly not English. You've literally just combined two different garden style elements and named it "English"
Never plant foxglove near your herbs. That’s asking for trouble. Also this isn’t an English garden
Beautiful…please make a video on how then garden…..
wow so beautiful
I know a lot of people don't like it, but mint actually makes a very good filler, as long as you keep it controlled, though it will die during winter, so be prepared to have a clean bed or have something else ready during that time
Thank you.
NO
Anybody actually priced this out recently?
There's roughly $1000 worth of bagged soil there alone.
A $20,000 garden?
That's cool.
Oh my god,so beautiful garden😭😭👍
Dude, stop singing every sentence. It's obnoxious.
was soll dieser aal
For a second i thought he was going to work with a nerf gun x)
Never seen a fence in English gardens; but rather hedges…perhaps boxwood would have been more appropriate.
Cost? Guessing a grand or 2
I'm English and there is nothing English about this.
That's a lot of information 👍
This is French minus all those bricks…it should be European ewe/ boxwood hedges and walkways are pea gravel.
Obviously this means more money for Lowes to do it this way using a HELL of ALOT more materials but the title is misleading AF
Waste of time calling 811.
How much would it all cost to hire a professional with materials included?
You forget to tell them the total cost lol 😂
As an Englishman I can confirm I've never seen a garden like that in the uk
BS
sounds like an American garden
Are you saying "paper base" or "paver base?" I can't figure out which. Needs a bit more articulation.
Never suggest Ivy. It's incredibly invasive.
Looks very nice! 🙂
I can't with this guy's intonations 😅
Jeez this is a lot of work lol
Actually, if you look into the history of well manicured gardens (1500's-1600's) it was the Italians who initially started this style of garden that today they get no credit for. The French was in to copy the style and make it popular and then the English. The only reason Americans believe this style is English is because of our association up to the civil war. However, historically the Italians are the creators of this style of garden.
With the inflation going wild, this garden can very well carry a price tag of $20,000 plus.
And, ask any real English man if that's a typical English garden. I think NOT.
English garden is essentially going with the flow, no rule no forms.
Albahaca y romero (comestibles) con digitalis, espero que ningún chico se le ocurra comer las plantas
Looks like sh1t tbh
I'm American living in England. This is more an italian or some other formal garden (which can also be found in grander English Manor Houses). This isn't near loose enough for an english garden.
