This is pretty much how I imagine paradise would be, if it existed.
Ravishing! Thank you so much for posting this.
Always learn something from your videos! I will never have a garden like this or any of the other immense British gardens but they all offer us something.
By the way, I love your hair like this!
Gorgeous garden. So many things to appreciate. 🪴🪴🪴🪴
Wonderful. Thank you for showing this. It's proving tricky to find real English garden views here on YouTube, so this is a precious treat.
Very interesting,very well done!
Splendid video. I treasure my first edition of William Robinson's The Wild Garden (1870). His influence on Gertrude Jekyll was important. Issues of his journal The Garden are well worth reading too if you come across them. I recall a very lazy dog in the peach house on one of my visits. Hoping to go back and stay when it gets easier to travel back to Japan.
Oh my goodness. What an inspiration. I watch this and quickly collect the names colors heights of the different plants that I would like to incorporate in my own garden
