I love the first tip the most. The selected/designed feel of space is what gives it that luxury feel instead of the cheap, hodge podge.

Aww your daughter is too cute. My oldest just turned for and he’s learning to fake it for attention too….and it’s rubbing off on my 2 year old😩💁🏾‍♀️. I love what you said about having a live edge instead of stone or some other manufactured item. I’m a big fan of organic vibes and stone makes things a little too manicured. So there’s that and all I can picture is my boys running around, and cracking their nugget on a stone😬. I would love your take on how to handle some pain points I have in my backyard (mainly) and my front yard. I don’t know if your contest is over as this video is 3 weeks old. I will certainly sign up for your newsletter and will stay connected. Love your videos!

We have red rock formations between the front of the house and the road that just dwarf the house and in the back we have red rock formations that are just far enough in the distance to view and enjoy once you overlook our yard.

Really love your channel. question: are there ways to make “fruit growing areas” look nice? We have a lot of blueberry and blackberry bushes at the back of our yard, and while I love what they do, they aren’t super attractive. Would love a video on ways to either make areas like that look nicer or ways to camouflage them.
@BobbyKDesigns
@BobbyKDesigns 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Amy. I would have to see the area but my first instinct is to give a really cool backdrop to the area. Maybe it’s some cool privacy screens? Maybe it’s some cool taller bushes. The point is, if your eyes drawn to something else then what is in the forefront doesn’t seem as ugly and obvious. You could also put something pretty in front of those planted areas like some beautiful perennials or annuals. So you have a layer effect going on here… You would have beautiful color upfront then your fruit bushes then your privacy screen or taller hedge. I think the combination of all three of these would look really cool.

my husband had curbing installed around the beds in the front yard….i got my way in back, i edged with a shovel, way more natural. i also have a problem with people planting plants way too close to houses.

@Kate both work but as you can tell from my videos I like your style better. I think we can all benefit, not only aesthetically, but from a monetary value from more natural looking landscapes.

I just came across your video, it's like I was meant to see your channel. We just recently had a 90mph winds tornado in our area. It destroyed our shed, damaged our back yard fence, our siding and roof. We are starting with our yard as we were left with no fence door and some fencing, no shed... summer is here and we are trying to create a comfortable backyard environment but; we are overwhelmed and trying to figure out a good layout design. Is the contest still going... Bobby help me now.?

I love your channel and style! I want to eliminate the western-facing lawn in front of my east TN house and create a large pollinator garden. I have a French drain that I'd love to turn into a dry creek bed. I live on a peninsula on a lake that is overrun with deer. I'm entering your contest, and hope you'll find my yard an interesting challenge.

Loving your style and tips. Just bought this house and the previous owners let it go to $#@&. We have focused on the interior which is wrapping up. It's time we start getting things in place for an exterior overhaul for next season.

Thank you!!! That’s typically how it goes. My wife and I remodeled her grandma’s house and we definitely started with the inside and work to the outside. Keep watching and hopefully I can help you save some money!

I’ve watched all your videos and love your take on everything. I’m a fairly new gardener, 5 years or so, but I’m thinking of starting a business doing this same thing in NC. Located surrounding a recreational lake, usually means people want there homes to look the best. What I’m wanting to do is work with developers or new home owners. Designing beds, and most importantly choose plant combinations that work in our area 7b… what advice could you give me starting out, since you have the invaluable hindsight?

@Chotibunder77 I hear ya. I know a decent amount but native plants aren’t my specialty. You should try the channel “Garden Answer”. She’ll bore you to death with plants.😂

I used the blocks in my backyard. It was used to define my garden beds that WEREN'T grandkid play area. In other words off limits. So what do they do, they walk them like a balance beam. I get your point, too late but I get it.. Where do you click for contest?

I could use your help and am broke but willing to put in the work I have a beautiful house well it can be. It’s rural but was a sea Captains house built in about 1900 I have a tree that is 6ft at the base and is at least 200 years old and a pond that is essentially a lake. I guarantee this can be amazing just needs work and someone with design skills and in a year of gradual work it will be beautiful. I have ideas but don’t have the budget to trial and error. Wish I get picked for a free design and sometime to work for.

These are my favorite type of comments! Why? Because “I’ve been there!” It’s ok. LANDSCAPING is a skill just like any other that will continue to grow as you get more practice. Get out there, stub your toe, watch more videos to speed up the process, and I guarantee you are going to have a different outlook on how it can be for you. I promise! You got this!
