    Wow-no messing straight into jam packed information- Need to replay with notebook.Starting on my front which at the moment is a glorious CAR PARK! This video will prove invaluable'-

    Nice ideas! Beautiful! The bees near the front entrance door will just come inside the house when the door opens and I will run away, lol…

  8. Hannah Dandy

    lovely ideas! Do you have any inspiration for planting under a bay window in the front garden? Would love to hear your thoughts 😊

  10. Becca Giessing

    What area the best floral colors when your home is white with black accents? Love the blue and yellow contrast, but white doesn’t contrast well as there’s few black plants

    Greeting from the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania, USA. I would like a video on planting a front garden for privacy and low maintenance i.e. no lawn mowing. I can't have a fence or hedges along the public road because of snow plowing. I would enjoy a closer look at your front garden as well.

    So valuable! Thank you so much for your suggestions! I’m going to plant lavender in front of my house.

    By studying your inspiring garden videos one question appeared. – What do you think about transfering the interior design to the garden design? For example : to plant the pattern of the couch fabric as a bed?

    Please Alexandra! could you share your ideas on how to eradicate unwanted and intrusive Muscari.
    I regard this bulb as a pernicious weed, although you may think otherwise

    Are you in a mad dash? Why are you speaking so fast? You have an already high pitched voice and rushing through just makes it pitch up more! Love your channel, but if you’re trying to do shorter videos, you shouldn’t – longer is great, you give such great information.
