Kudos for the Video! Sorry for chiming in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard about – Giyily Landscaping Yatty (should be on google have a look)? It is a good one off product for unlocking the secret to make money with landscaping minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my buddy got excellent success with it.
Dont forget to put a few ant eating plants. Fun to watch.

Hey guys what up you guys watching my channel?!😂
This kind of job goes a lot quicker when you have a wheelbarrow guy waiting around the corner with gravel.
That's a beautiful looking yard!
This is all happening in real time and he's just chaotically running around throwing shovels and wheelbarrows at them
2:47 He needs to turn that stake 180 degrees to fit into the bracket.
Now he just damaged it jamming it in the wrong way.
Good to see Roger’s better.
that's a hell of an improvement
Now you just use fire
A professional gardener spreads the roots of a plant before planting. (4:40 m.).
2 Square meters of grass?
A big area of black soil with a few plants…
I'm sorry, but I think its a bad job.
I find it funny how he made a video about how to plant a tree, where he talks about how you have to loosen the roots if they are circling and in this video he just said screw it and just planted the pot bound Japanese maple lol
Weeds and dead plants probably in a week.
That tree is toast! Surprised he didn't say anything about it.
Why didn't you guys get Home Depot to sponsor a Garden Digger and till that up
Turned out beautiful!
I just stuck the tree in the corner without cutting slots in the root ball. That’s definitely an amateur mistake.
What fabric would you recommend to use for the sitting area?
This was so dang wholesome. I love his accent too.
The end result looks great!
Can you do my backyard
This is less of a "how to" and more of a video of him barking orders at these folk
5:14
Mangoes! 2 for a buck!
Roger: Throw some compost in there
Lady: *proceeds to throw the compost over the fence 😂
Every “gahden” needs a statement
4:34 😂
Oh man, I don't know if I can take gardening advice from a guy who sounds like he works the docks in Philly
so fake and cringe.
I wonder what this space looks like seven years later (2021)?
It only took them 6 minutes to do it from how fast Roger works lol
I wish they showed the whole garden complete.
Nice plans has many great ideas for building a cottage shedplans.work retirement home or medium size home from very modest to high end.
Hey Baltimore! Glad you weren’t shot!
Wou'aght'a
Jmmm
Roger was doing a speedrun on this yard.
Beautiful plants
Roger, look out for doggie landmines!
