Your ongoing tribute to him through this greenhouse and all the little mentions of him throughout... It's just wonderful and beautiful. Much love 💕😊

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Oh!, and the idea of keeping a log of what you planted is just brilliant. I don't know why I hadn't thought of that. I'm always forgetting what I planted and I never remember their names. Great idea!

[@DIYDanie]

Thank you 💜

[@catul5433]

May I respectfully ask who Vince is? Thanks

Hi Danie, what a great tribute to Vince, I'm so happy you and your mom were able to do this together in his honor...everything looks beautiful....Take care...cheers !!!

[@LollyB1963]

Very very touching you are a beautiful person inside and out. Your mom surely did an awesome job on raising you she is a amazing spiritual person..

[@DIYDanie]

That's such a nice thing to say - thank you xo

[@kimwatson7463]

I am the biggest baby. I shed so many tears watching this beautiful video of a wonderful tribute to a man your Mom and you obviously loved. ❤❤❤❤❤ It’s beautiful.

[@annaryan4803]

If you lay cardboard on an area, for a few days, where you want to get rid of the grass and other plants, the cardboard will kill them by depriving them of sunlight. Leave it there, until the plants are yellow, and you will be able to remove them easier. Another helpful thing to do, is to thoroughly water and area, and let it dry until the ground is moist. This makes it easier to remove the plant and roots, if you pull it out slowly.

[@DIYDanie]

That's GREAT advice! thank you! xo

[@RebeccaTreeseed]

I have done this for decades! I don't dig these area up.

[@lindalehr1551]

What a lovely garden and tribute❤ (also, shout out to "helper" Knobi 😊🐶)

[@blondie6611]

@@DIYDanie ⁠to add to this - put down cardboard, wet it, then follow up with a thick layer of compost and finally mulch. Then you can either wait until the cardboard gas decomposed or you can actually cut holes in the cardboard and plant. That's what I did. Also, and I'm not sure where you are exactly, can arrange for a free drop of mulch from Chip Drop. Last, landscape fabric doesn't prevent weeds from growing. Yes, maybe the ones in the soil already but weed seeds will drop on top of the fabric and the roots will grow through the fabric. Then it will be near impossible to pull it out without ripping the fabric. Eventually you'll have a ripped up mess AND weeds. Mulching is best or just planting so much that weeds literally have no room to grow.

[@Digitalhunny]

Such a simple, yet effective plan. Anna _sincerely,_ I know this was meant for Danie but I think you just saved me a ton of time?! Tonight's plan was gonna be _hours_ of researching how to videos VS. physically exhaustive manual work. Thank you _so_ very much. 🤗💕💕 (Just love this community, y'all are so nice & helpful.)

[@elizabethfarmer4648]

I am teary eyed at your wonderful tribute to your stepdad. Hugs to you and your family.

Love that Kenobi keeps bringing you toys so you can play with him! Obviously, it’s what you’d rather be doing!😊

[@DIYDanie]

ALWAYSSSSS

[@huffsarah]

You don’t have to share your loss and life with us, but you do. And it makes us love and appreciate that hard work you’ve done for us- and for yourself. Keep taking care of yourself. You’re setting a beautiful example for others.

[@maryhart637]

I LOVE Kenobi!! Such exuberance❤️❤️ This tribute to a man who touched your heart and left you too soon is perfect. The living plants will always keep him alive in your heart and to all who enjoy your loving work.💛💙💜

RIP Vincenzo. What a beautiful tribute you’ve made

[@NitrosMom074]

I’m not crying, I’m NOT crying. Well maybe just a tear or two…….million! I miss gardening with my mom. Thank you Danie, for sharing this very touching moment. Who would ever think a KZbin video would evoke such emotion.

[@josiekl664]

A beautiful Father's gift, planted with love

[@alyssasmyth]

Beautiful. Absolutely stunning. What a beautiful way to honor a loved one. May he rest in peace. ❤ keep his memory alive!! 💕🥹

[@loreensmermaid]

I feel so emotional watching your Mom and you doing this garden, it is beautiful and full love!!!!

[@vickinoeske1154]

Just some personal advise from someone who has been gardening 30+ years. Spend your money on perennials, bulbs and flowering shrubs. Permanent plants. Plant annuals in pots and some in borders for a pop of color. They are truly a lot of money for a short time.

[@sylviaortiz8837]

Danie, you and your mom are the sweetest. What a wonderful tribute to a man that is still so loved. I’m crying 😭❤️

[@ima40schic]

You made me cry. I suffered a great loss in 2020, the feelings are still raw. You did a beautiful job!!! I love so much.

[@jemma50]

What a beautiful garden, Danie, and a lovely tribute to Vince. Not gonna lie, I'm sitting here bawling as you do the brick lovenotes. Big hugs to you and your Mom, with lots of love. ♥♥♥

[@prophetessoftroy]

Gentle reminder than annuals have to be *planted* annually, and that perennials are the things that keep coming back ;) This was just beautiful. I knew I was going to cry, and I definitely did, but mostly I'm just glad you and your mom have this space

[@rebeccavinyard2899]

There were tears…😢 love how you are carrying on V memories and honoring him with this very sweet garden❤

[@LadyLJOII]

What a loving tribute to someone you miss.

[@bridgettebollig2649]

How wonderful you and your beautiful mom worked on the garden together. A perfect tribute to Vince and the circle of life. Sending y’all so much love.❤

[@Lynsey17]

Growing up, my parents did a lot of vegetable gardening (mostly to cut food costs). They also grew and sold strawberries. My dad kept a log book that listed what seeds and plants they bought, when he planted seeds, when he started transplants inside, when he moved them outside, how much he planted, their yield, how much we were able to store or freeze for the winter, how long it lasted us, and weather info. He also tracked how much rain we got and the water level in our well. We call it his Almanac and it has about 3 decades worth of detailed info that is incredibly helpful. I don't know how much detail you plan to keep in your book, but I can tell you the information can be very useful in hindsight. Side note - it was always bittersweet at the end of the summer to have nights our parents let us stay up late sniping beans as they were blanching and freezing them 😊

[@pollyporter-campbell7493]

Thank you for sharing the brick memories of your dad. Doing this type activity is part of healing as is the entire garden.❤

[@kenziehiatt4318]

It's been 3 years since I lost my grandpa and uncle who raised me. This hit too close. I'm glad you can honor your step dad like this

[@alyssataylor2338]

I'm struck by what a privilege it is for all of us viewers to get to see you work on such a meaningful project. The garden, the greenhouse, and the tribute that they both are are all so beautiful Also, you and your editor are KILLING the music game in your videos lately. Out of all the creators I watch, your videos have the best music.

[@teresabell1014]

Everything looks great, including your mom. What a beautiful and living tribute to your step dad. The brick messages were especially thoughtful.

[@SmileAwhileForMe]

What a beautiful tribute to fathers and father figures for Father's day. ❤

[@composing-chaos]

I think the bricks are a wonderful idea. What a nice way to be connected to him and incorporate his memories into the garden.

[@Lvent67]

Good to see DIY Mama ❤ spray the bricks with a top coat so the writing stays ❤

[@sandrae5609]

Looking beautiful! I love watching you and your mom together. Suggestion: you may want to add a rock to the birdbath that sits above the water level. This will allow small birds to land safely and drink. ❤

[@jeanne-marie8196]

What a beautiful tribute. I’m glad you, your Mom, and everyone else who knew and loved Vincenzo, can share their grief, but also share the beauty of his life. Bittersweet episode, but touchingly sweet

[@JlNXED]

I’ve got to say the music choices for this video were quite great !

[@Cymindis]

If you don't want to worry abut grass behind the green house, you could make it gravel with pot plants on it - no need to mow and can decorate pots and make a potting station if you want too.

[@somuchsavv]

I love how it turned out! I know Vince is smiling down at you and your moms masterpiece you’ve created!! I’m not sure if you guys were breaking up the roots before planting but to help them not go into shock or become bound it’s always a good rule of thumb to break up their roots before planting! Love you!

[@chelsoinked]

I cried with y’all when you did the bricks. It’s absolutely beautiful. I’m sure he loves it!

[@19katoon96]

Love, love, love the bricks idea!! The greenhouse is a living memorial to Vince! ❤❤❤❤

Excuse me as I wipe the tears currently rolling down my blubbering face. 😅 I lost my brother in an accident 5 years ago and each year I just take that to day for me to remember him, and like you every day I think of him and remember to live a life in which honours him but is true to myself just as he was always true to himself. Your way is just as beautiful. Absolutely wonderful tribute. Much love. I get it. ❤

[@gertrudefuriosa]

wow this was very intense and emotionnal. I could feel all the love you had and still have for Vincenzo and even if he is gone, it feels really like he's still alive. The memory is so pure, your way to remember him is so respectful and tender, the philosophy of the garden alone and that living being such as plants and birds can grow in it, and feel good. This dance and so much more we don't know but can be sure is felt missing for Vincenzo must have been someone really special and, even if I would wish first that he never left, I can feel like he's also been really lucky to have you ! You are making amazing in the garden, and in life ! Love you ! I share my tears with you ! Thank you for sharing all this with us, it feels really precious ! Be safe and stay stafe 🙏

Hi Danie, please keep in mind that if you have stationary water (your bird water station) it invites mosquitos to breed their eggs in that water. if you have an electric water fountain, then they won't breed in it. I loved your tribute to Vince.

[@kathybeck5957]

So touchingly BEAUTIFUL!!! What a tribute to hubby and Pop!!! HUGS!!!

[@lz738]

I don't really understand why, but it makes me so happy whenever I hear you say "Editor: roll the tape! Boop!" Silly secret: I always say it along with you and it's very comforting. It's like: everything is going to be okay! Love you, Danie!

Such a beautiful garden and a beautiful tribute. I'm sitting here crying in my oatmeal. such a lovely video.

[@andreamalik2961]

Hi Danie. May I give you a little advice about climbers (honeysuckle, clematis etc). They'll thrive much more if you separate them from the little stakes that were in the pots when you bought them - remove the stakes, untangle the stems & spread them out & separate the stems as much as you can, as climbers need air around them when they grow. Leaving them all bunched up isn't great for them . Hey, it's all a learning curve 😊. You've done your beloved Vincenzo proud lovely xx

[@tiffytots9829]

Honestly such a rush of good chemicals when I see you uploaded a video 😊. I always just find myself smiling when watching your goofiness ❤

@20:42 I got as far as... I'm gonna let the sunshine in today, I'm trying to make this darkness go away... and I started crying. I instantly fell in love with the song and paused it right there to go look it up. It reminded me of Hollow Coves music. Thank you for leading me to this beautiful song! I'm Gonna Let The Sunshine In Today Song by Loving Caliber That was only the beginning of the tears. My heart goes out to you and your Mom. Such a lovely garden and tribute to Vince.

[@jhutch1681]

The gaura flower moment reminds me of my own wee daughter shocking her granny by talking about her uvula ;) My mom very recently passed away, and seeing you work with you mom touches my heart... I am a huge lover of mulch, and your choice of black is so pretty. I add more each year, but I have such a good base that I have almost no trouble with weeds, and it really helps cut down on the watering. Beautiful gardens. I am sure Vincent is looking down and feeling very pleased!

[@beverlyherring6595]

My son showed me an easy fast way to empty bags of garden soil. Lay the bag down where you want the soil; Use a sharp knife to cut the bag from side to side right in the middle and then pick up the two ends and dump it all at once. Super fast and easy.

I had to cut my mom out of my life due to toxic traits and other things to improve my mental health. I think the garden as well as the bricks are the best way to honor someone you love whom has passed on.

Get a solar powered floating fountain for your bird bath. It attracts birds but the moving water cuts down on mosquitoes and gnats. Also some marbles into it to keep bees and butterflies from drowning.
