My Retirement Dreams Atmosphere In Nigeria 🇳🇬 When I Retired In USA 🇺🇸 And Moved To My 6 Plots Epe Lands In Lagos Nigeria 🇳🇬 I Have 6 More Years To Be Retired 🙏🏾 ❤️ 😍 💖 I Just Started Building My Elevated 6 Bedrooms And 4.5 Bathrooms Bungalow On My 6 Plots Of Lands

[@DeborahArinseh]

Congratulations 🎉

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Sounds like a dream resort. Have you planted trees?

[@elizabethbekoe381]

Thank you lady for show casing a tidy relaxing garden space and plants ..well done 🌹

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Thank you for watching 😊

[@Micha0009]

What a feast for the eyes! She’s so talented.

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Indeed, she is. Thank you for watching.

[@Micha0009]

@ you’re welcome! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@lornahenry406]

A beautiful , tropical garden, and a charming lady. Thank you

[@genuinediasporan]

Beautiful. This is not common,especially in urban,modern houses to have such wonderful gardens in Lagos,Nigeria. Instead of having a garden, they would rather have a swimming pool they don't swim in. More of this. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Yes, you are so right. Thank for watching.

[@kemettura1888]

I believe plants are the decoration of every home and courtyard. It so elegant and inviting to anyone who sees it. I grew up in Ghana and ai remembered how well our garden was kept and so many fruit trees I sent my time on eating away😅😅 You never brought fruits it was in the garden. Nigeria is no different! Emerald of West Africa should always look amazing 😍

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

I totally agree with you. We enjoy 12 months of sunshine. What else could we ask for?

[@evelynwashington2840]

She is an artist! Thank you for featuring her garden. Her space is an expensive artistic expression

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

She is a very modest artist. I'm glad I found her. Thanks for watching.

[@Chubbbbyyyyyy]

how refreshing to see a plant over in Nigeria as people no longer have gardens rather they paved up their homes. she is very creative and lovely lady

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Indeed, she is. Thanks.

[@josephinebrevig8748]

So beautiful to see a garden in Nigeria…a rarity on YT.. So used to watching Gardening KZbinrs from the America, UK , Australia and Asia. So well done for this content. She’s a creative lady with a lush garden. Never heard of her. YT recommended your video. First time watching your content. Watching from 🇬🇧

Watching you from UK makes me want to come back to Lagos son. Very creative

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Do come back. 😀

[@nefchukwujekwu6035]

Lovely garden! The art is so creative and the pieces transform the garden into a gallery. She’s really gifted. I absolutely love the garden watcher! Incidentally, running bamboo is much more invasive than clumpers. Fortunately, most of the tropical varieties seem to be clumpers. My goodness! Imagine if they were mostly runners! It would be like the castle in Sleeping Beauty!🤣

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Ah! Thanks for the information about the bamboo.

New subscriber here, I ❤️ plants and anything to do with gardening, this lady is very creative, I like what she did with the oil bottles, I was disappointed that your camera person did not show us the tile pot when you and the lady was talking about it, I am sure it was lovely. Maybe she can show us how she made her cement, tile & oil bottle pots. 😊🎉

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Thank you for your kind words. I'm the disappointing camera person.😀 I realised later, too, that I didn't get a good shot of the tile pot. Sorry about that.

Are there mosquitoes ? How do you control them ? Large house, large garden. Fantastic work

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Mosquitos didn't bother us while we were out, but she said she rubs on a natural mosquito repellent from the garden.

[@bintawaliyu2273]

Hello Joan! Just subscribed to your channel. Thanks for your inspiring content. This garden is spectacular, thanks for giving us the tour. Your website is quite informative as well. I love plants and flowers as well. Can you recommend perennials (flowers please) I can plant in Kano. I have a nice collection of plants that are thriving as we speak. But I am thinking of venturing out and trying my luck on flowers, your advice would be much appreciated. Love the alocasia on your website. Great videos by the way❤

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Thanks for subscribing and reading my articles. Your feedback means a lot to me. Oh yes, I’m going to write a few more articles and make more videos about flowers. Please check out my recent video about floral arrangements. There are some listed there.

[@moomoon1410]

Yes that cissus is a medicinal plant!

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Thanks for adding this bit of information. It's much appreciated.

[@nikkyoyinlola920]

I felt this video was way too short!! Wow! That leafy cactus is also said to repel snakes, so many grow it for that reason

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Oh, thanks for adding this information. 😀

[@GreenspaceZambia260]

Agreed. Video was way too short! but fyi there are no plants or potions that repel snakes. They have nostrils and can simply hold their breathe if they do not like a smell.

[@gramermanushsupport4298]

so good

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Thank you.

[@princeandrew1977]

Beautiful and inspiring. I just got into gardening and its a thrilling experience. I have a potted 3 foot fan palm in my veranda, mosttly shady. I am contemplating planting it in the ground where it will get full direct sun and possibly grow to its full potential. Will it thrive under the sun and heat in Abuja?

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Hmm... It depends on the type. I've seen some in the sun doing okay and others burning. I'd say leave in the pot while you try it out in the new spot. If it doesn't work, you can take it back.

[@princeandrew1977]

@@plantsintropicalspaces3319 Thank you. will do that

[@elizabethbekoe381]

Please how do she get rid of lizzard in her garden ?

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

I'll ask her.

[@joyabia682]

Why not tell us how she made her compost

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Make compost with garden waste by allowing it decompose over time. Use bins or sacks to organise the materials or just pile them in a heap on the ground. Turning the materials will aerate it and hasten the process. In our weather, it will eventually breakdown within a year even if you do nothing. I tie grass clippings in black bin bags for 6 months until it’s broken down. I have an earlier video about composting. Please watch it.

[@FeliciaBoamah]

I live in Ghana is there any way to get plants, seeds, and cuttings from you?

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

Oh wow! Can we connect on IG? I know some accounts in Ghana with lovely plants.

[@joyabia682]

Why are naija gardens filled with pots?? Why are things not in the ground

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

You can plant big plants directly in the ground. It’s easier to move smaller plants when they are in pots. If you want a variety of plants, being able to move them around is necessary. You’ll need to place plants in the right places as the garden grows and matures.

[@TeeCokes]

She should dig up and destroy the bamboo plants before they distroy the walls and foundation of her home. Bamboo plants don't belong near houses.

[@plantsintropicalspaces3319]

So I heard, too, but I now understand that there are different species and varieties.

[@singularseeker]

And you should not touch the art
