Incredible Garden Tour in Charlotte

[@nolagirl7082]

I loved the fact that I didn’t see one flower! Well, there might’ve been few, but there’s barely any annuals in this garden. I love my annuals/flowers! So for me to love this space and have it hold my attention the whole video, says a lot! Stunning!!!

[@debrabray8855]

Simply magnificent. I paused this video so many times to study color combos, texture, light. A dream garden.

[@joycecrosby6934]

I paused constantly to write down the species..outstanding 2:20

[@jmeaton9538]

Absolutely breathtaking! Who needs sunny flower borders when you can create something as tranquil and mesmerising as this. I also greatly appreciated the slow walk round at the end.

[@doreenlatimer6379]

One of the most beautiful properties I have ever seen. Plants, hardscape, water features, house. Loved it all. Great camera work at the end. Wonderful tour Jim and Stephany.

[@SandyHOWARD-r2h]

This garden is a work of art. I was hanging on every word of Mr. Sifford’s descriptions and landscape design insights. I also love that he achieves so much color variation without relying on annuals. Wow, wow wow!!!

[@smabernethy]

Mr Sifford's work is exceptional! He has managed to weave an Asian inspired garden into the Carolina metroplex with West coast DNA. Notice how he's able to completely blot out the traffic noise (Steph shows us just how loud at the end) while keeping the design soft,not claustrophobic. Jay's work immediately made me think of James Van Sweden. Really superior design❤

[@EL_80]

Well put! 👍

[@Eric.Mercado]

Wow! What an amazing space! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of your conversation. The silent walk-through at the end was breathtaking. Thanks, Jim, Steph, Jay, and the homeowner for sharing this space with us.

[@janekozlovsky9383]

Dare to dream , I suppose. Only 1 plant is missing from this magnificent garden's video❤THE MONEY TREE😂. Thanks, Jim. That was beautiful!

[@jessicalmcdaniel9878]

RIGHT!

[@oxwoman8]

Alright, Jay. It's time to start your own KZbin channel! Your content would be phenomenal!

[@alanerpington5698]

He does have a handful of videos up, see @jaysifford9419

[@KS-qw7sz]

He has lots of stuff on houzz

[@claytoncomeaux414]

The Garden looked perfect for a movie set. Magical and Intimate vistas.

[@janicestewart5658]

Yes...absolutely magical.💖

[@Rustytoolgardener]

Unbelievable beauty. Well done.

[@ftworthtexan9082]

amazingly beautiful!!! thank you for sharing!!

[@juliabinford6500]

I especially liked the discussion about transitions between spaces. It’s obvious that considerable landscape design went into this space. I love it.

[@margaretaklemming2492]

Also giving explanations of when horizontal fencing vs vertical will work better, great to know.

[@mt2766]

Jim, thanks for asking questions about transitions and plant placement. Learned a lot from this video. The tapestry is gorgeous. Too bad many of those plants won’t thrive in my subtropical zone.

[@karenk4793]

I loved when you visited his garden and am planning mine like his. This garden is my dream garden!!! On my saved list, like his other, for easy reference. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for visiting his work of art.

[@nancydietz3061]

I keep watching this video over and over. I stopped long enough to go to my local nursery to buy some plants, and now I'm watching it again. I guess you could say you've inspired me! 🌳

[@JennJenn9]

Many Many thanks to Jay for sharing his amazing design sense - Thank you to the homeowner for inviting us to enjoy their lovely garden - and thanks to Jim for connecting us with these lovely talented people 😊

[@GardeningSpirit]

THIS is a dream garden to me... I love everything about it. Thank you so much Jim for this tour!

[@boogiegirl4276]

Awesome design. A dream wonderland come true !! 😊😊😊 Please do more videos like this. 😊😊😊

[@dennymeyer1287]

Wow! that is just beautiful! all the colors you really don't need flowers. love it! thanks for sharing. Genie : )

[@freedomofreligion3248]

What a spectacular garden. Oh, my goodness. Lovely beyond words. I took a gazillion screen shots. You two guys even looked great in that beautiful space. Jk.

[@jenniferspoor2402]

This is such an inspiring garden! I will definitely be rewatching multiple times to help me plan out my own garden.

[@karenschrantz2307]

I am blown away by this garden! The house is beautiful too, but these combinations of evergreens and foliage plants are just outstanding!

[@sharonbannister6564]

Thanks so much for that silent walk through the garden. I was thinking I’d watch without sound and then you did it for me. A wonderful experience!

[@starlakelsey2782]

The drone footage really let the garden shine. The walk thru was lovely....but somehow my brain connected best with the overhead vision. Such a pretty place. I guess the plants absorb so much of the street noises also.

[@josephhollandsworth1255]

Jay's mountain property video always stands out in my mind as a dream landscape. And here again, this landscape is beyond beautiful. I could watch videos all day with Jim and Jay. Wonderful video as usual... I listen carefully to Jay's thoughts and incorporate his methods in my own yard.

[@madhavigunnala3479]

Wow simply superb!, Color combinations of plants

[@fundamental1020]

So much color and texture. He is a master

[@Chopperdoll]

I’ve never seen a garden as beautiful as this one. Thank you for the tour. Wow! ❤

[@terriebutler6737]

Man that carex underneath that Japanese Maple is GORGEOUS 💚 Love the cool colors in this garden AND that horizontal fence. WOW!!! THANK YOU for this tour, so many ideas 🌳🌳🌳🐕

[@lisahowell3468]

This garden is so relaxing and beautiful! Had a spa like feeling to it! Just gorgeous!

[@sloanhall8638]

The textures in this garden is amazing! I love all of the different shades of greens too.

[@dia9491]

When I saw it was Jay I had to stop and comment. I haven’t watched the video at all yet. Just wanted to say that his other house with the barberry as a pop of color has changed my world. I’ve been on the hunt all season lol just loved that garden.

[@HunterTN]

Lowe's carries them and they'll ship to your house.

[@dia9491]

@@HunterTN I haven’t seen them in my local Lowe’s. I’ll have to check on the other ones. Thank you for telling me!!!

[@JM-lo8xu]

Phenomenal!!!!

[@isabelletalpain-long9102]

Thanks for making this video! Especially the silent and slow walk-through at the end. So much inspiration and diversity in plants, colors and textures! And with no grass and very few flowers. Simply amazing!

[@carolfisch9750]

Perfection. Loved the first part with the explanations/identifications and absolutely adored the 2nd part with the silent above view and then walk thru at ground level. Thank you for letting us be guests to this beautiful landscape.

[@heatherunger7325]

He is a master of layering and texture! Thank You for the tour. Absolutely love tapestry !!!!!

[@breeking3333]

Big fan of Jay’s work and once again he does not disappoint. Thanks so much for sharing this garden tour.

[@myrusticgardens]

That was absolutely stunning. I truly enjoyed hearing the thoughts behind the design but also just wandering through slowly at the end. Spectacular.

[@maryanne2666]

Wow, everything about this video is a 10! The design, the interview, the camera work. I’ll definitely be watching it again to jot down all the specific design tips Mr. Sifford shared. I especially liked his attention to transition areas in the landscape, which I find challenging to do well.

[@CynLynRin]

Excellent space. Thank you to the home owner for allowing the tour. I liked the walk through at the end to get a second look.

[@aalejardin]

Good format -- we get the thoughts of the designer and id of plants then a quiet stroll to enjoy the flow.

[@tericlark2293]

Thank you both so much and Steph for filming. Jay once again you have shown us that live outside Charlotte your genius !

[@SheriShea1]

Love it! Charlotte is full of incredible gardens, we had an Art in the Garden show last week and it was amazing. How wonderful that you had this opportunity to share!

[@jeangassaway9843]

gorgeous, stunningly beautiful

[@Neonatnoon]

Wow, the Japanese maple and conifer combos are so nice, what great textures

[@scottmoore5839]

Make no mistake about it, Jay is an artist. Stunning work and vision.

[@gracepeterson7483]

The walk-through at the end was really nice. I couldn't tell whether the song sparrows were singing in my computer or outside. 😊 Very nice garden.

[@jackieback2133]

Unbelievable beauty Never have I seen such beauty Thank you for sharing

[@jennifergreene8891]

STUNNING 😍 Thank you for sharing!!

[@jessicalmcdaniel9878]

Makes me proud to be from North Carolina!

[@Midnight_Gardener]

NO LANDSCAPE FABRIC!!! Thank you so much for talking about that. I don’t know why ppl are so unbelievably obsessed with fabric. I’ve never once used it in my life. As long as you put down at least 2 different sizes of rock/gravel/stone, preferably 3 different sizes, it WILL NOT move around and weeds will not be a problem. This design is genuinely impressive. Its VERY eye catching and has many, flashy, and picturesque “frames” everywhere, yet it shows so much restraint and is never overwhelming. As someone who has been doing landscaping and landscape design for a long time… I can tell you that finding the balance between a “filled in” design and overwhelming chaos is extremely hard to pull off and very rarely witnessed. This place should be in an educational textbook somewhere and should be the standard. I’m bout to watch it again.

[@jaysifford9419]

In my mind, landscape fabric and sprayed popcorn ceilings are the two worst things ever invented. Kudos for not using it!

[@thefitzs]

Absolutely phenomenal. I could never afford a landscape like that but it sure is lovely to see, and glean ideas from. Beautiful house. Oh to have that kind of $$ !!

[@rickgonzalez1218]

Deb here. Very considerate of him to allow the project evolve over time. The landscape designers I encountered wantt to do it all at once.

[@darinbennett3638]

Beautiful piece of property and the garden tutorial was worth the price of admission! We recently moved from a full-sun acre to a much more shaded one-acre property and so it was fun to see what we can do with a variety of sun/shade areas with transitioning them from one to the other. Jim, it's always like attending a master's class when watching your videos.

[@carlaeglinton8456]

This garden is so beautiful! I'll be watching these over and over. Thank you Jim for sharing!

[@cesarbugarini499]

20:52 what can money buy 😳😍😍😍 this is gorgeous ✨✨✨

[@P.Hightower]

Fountain area is incredible. Great camera work at the end!

[@gloriaruiz2332]

Amazing work ❤

[@cathyhatfield5340]

Boy that’s a beautiful landscape there! I love all the colors and stonework that was done.👍😎❤️

[@lindamelz242]

What a magically stunning garden. Just viewing is so calming. Thank you for sharing its beauty.

[@glendapeters8899]

Oh, my! So beautiful! Thanks for sharing with us! Just WOW! Such interesting combinations. Love it all!

[@my_humble_opinion4019]

Hands down my next favorite home tour (Gibberson garden in Athens is #1) along with the mountain home of the same designer. Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much for the incredible content!!

[@TheImpatientGardener]

So much to love in this garden but one great element is the use of stone (or those fiber concrete balls) as transitional elements. I love those stone pillars.

[@jumprope04]

Thank you for this tour! Beginner gardener here soaking up the beauty and design ideas. And we just planted a juniper shrub “Old Gold” - exciting to see its cousin here. Appreciate his easy tips like placing a single stone as a “doormat”, using objects such as spheres in the distance to create sense of larger space. Beautiful tour. I’m inspired!

[@katiekane5247]

I grew up around fine Oriental tapestries. Maybe that's why I've always used the contrast, repetitions and texture in my designs. It's like painting or weaving with plants. Always more challenging because our pallets aren't static. Just a beautiful space, thank you for sharing!

[@freyartz]

Wow, wow, wow!

[@pcrice-lr2dn]

Gorgeous……who knew you could put that many trees and plants in that area ,well done 🌿🍃

[@ivyandroses25]

Such a sensational garden. Thanks so much for letting us tour with you, Jim! I could have watched this for hours! So many interesting plant combinations!

[@marky3131]

Fabulous use of the space and the use of green. Thanks for bringing this to your channel

[@jessicalmcdaniel9878]

Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for this tour. Inspirational

[@marybeth4002]

I hope I dream about this garden space tonight!! I can't think of any words to best describe this space - it took my breath away. Thank you, Stephany, Jim, Jay and homeowners.

[@debbielee4140]

Amazing. Lots of great ideas.

[@lanastewart7310]

Absolutely beautiful green garden! Loved the tour!❤

[@jennifernguyen9412]

One of your Top 10 must see videos thus far! Love this!!!

[@kaychaney6102]

Another wow Jim and Stephanie. Thank you!

[@SarahJeanMurray]

Definitely saving this one for future reference. I really struggle with putting foliage based plants together so this video is extremely helpful as inspiration!

[@karenmuhlig8185]

Grogeous garden love all the color and Texture and beautiful home

[@cindybess9572]

An unbelievable garden!! I could look at this video for hours. Thanks to all for sharing!!

[@lorraineclark7455]

Wow! What a stunning landscape. There are so many good ideas to use in one's garden. I will be viewing this video again and again.

[@parsley7894]

Absolutely stunning. Definitely drawn to ground level throughout the property. Beautiful.

[@debbiestrouse3568]

Thank you for the tour of such a beautiful oasis!!

[@cyhomer]

My faves: the front slope, the concrete balls and pillars, and the contrast between dark purples and lime greens…

[@stacis4254]

Stunning! Foliage gardens are my favorite. They're so tranquil.

[@mariale7821]

This garden is lovely! It also doesn’t appear to be a high maintenance type garden even though its packed with a lot of plants.

[@arayome5870]

Good day Jim. You are added to my list of favorite gardeners! This by far is my favorite video. We are two years in our one owner new home. The landscaping was barely there. We are in progress! My heart just sings along with the awesome conversation you two are having. Very helpful and inspiring. The landscaping is stunning. Thank you for sharing! Kind regards.

[@Edu_Kate]

Green is my favorite color. So nice to see so many varied shades in an interesting way. I especially liked the ending footage where we could virtually traverse this landscape. Man! That road noise is intense. The water features do their job masking it.

[@joannschultz-4972]

Loved the tour. Very talented designer for sure. Will view this one often. Thank you for sharing.

[@ButtonsTaru]

What a gorgeous garden, absolutely perfect.

[@lindylou3519]

Nice houses on that street. It’s so amazing to find such a talented landscape designer who you can see eye to eye with who can get so much texture & color not using flowers. So well done!

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Love tours😊!beautiful garden!😊
