Thanks for babysitting my 3 month old while I make myself breakfast. She’s perfectly content watching your videos. Lol my plan to make her my gardening buddy is going well.

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Robbie! I love seeing how happy you are when you get new plants that you love. That Woolly Grevillea is beautiful. It looks so good in the front. I wish it was hardy in lower zones, 7a, as I would love to grow one in a pot. You and Brent are making great progress on the backyard project. I'm really looking forward to seeing what all you do back there. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@Eric.Mercado]

Hey Robbie 👋 How about a sunken area for the new patio space? It will definitely give you the closed-in, private feel you're going for. And the plants, fireplace, and containers will only add to the effect and complete the area, making it feel cozy. We sometimes tend to make our "garden rooms" feel cold or secluded when aiming for that private feel, if that makes sense 😆 But cozy is really the best feeling when it comes to a "garden room," IMO.

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Hi Robbie! New plants cool beans! Big huggicates and love!❤😊❤

[@jomassey4207]

Grevillias are such easy care, pretty shrubs. You can get many varieties and they will never let you down. Great as a border or ground cover.😊

[@georgettea7836]

Love the grevillea! I am in Australia and grevilleas are my favourite plants. Its wonderful to hear that your hummingbirds love it. The prickly leaves help to protect them from bigger birds. As long as it has full sun and the occasional water it should do well in your climate.

[@julvwildcat190]

I was going to ask if that plant was a succulent because it looked like it to me. Then, you gave an explanation of why it looks that way. Your pomegranate seed comment 😂. The changes are coming along. So exciting.

[@GardenHappy]

Oh my goodness, Robbie that shrub is absolutely stunning. It’s such a great choice and extremely interesting as well. I believe that will make a great conversation piece. 🌸🥰🌸🥰🌸 Liz

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Robbie and Brent y'all are doing such a lot and doing a great job at everything you do. The backyard is going to be absolutely beautiful ❤

[@caroleking1834]

So glad things are coming along well in the backyard. You guys have worked so hard on all this.

[@notthatcourtney]

Congrats on all the progress, Robbie! The whimsical details and nod to your grandma are so sweet! Can’t wait to tag along to see the rest of your vision ♥️

[@thisuniquechica]

Robbie’s raised bed has such nice soil that he can use his hands to dig. Meanwhile I’m over planting in such thick clay that I fear I might break my trowel. 😂

[@LizSwinney]

Pencil Holly would look so nice in the pots by your front gate.

[@Brenda-fp5te]

Absolutely love the new plant you planted in the front yard, gorgeous.

[@LeighWalker-dd9bg]

Looking good!! H The important thing is to have fun and know that you do what you want it’s yours and no one else

[@Mckersnoopy]

Morning Robbie I love the hummingbird plant you planted in the front, I have to go look for it. Here I go again, spending more money on plants because of you ❤ The other day I found some hellebore plants on sale🙂🌻

[@susanlateano4202]

Have several in Rocklin. They love full sun even in the wretched heat of Calif 9b. Grevilla Coastal Gem and Mt. Tabamitha are both fab❤

[@fabricandflowers83]

Thank you so much for the inspiration I have been so blahh the past few in the garden. Your making me want to get back out there and do stuff.

[@Garden1842andHome]

Wow the Grevellia is beautiful!!! Might need it in my garden. Can not go wrong with Snapdragons

[@JoanHughes-i2k]

Ohh La La! That Grevillea is such a pretty girl! ❤

[@denisewatson3038]

Lovely new shrub Robbie 😊oh everything coming along now gonna be great ❤

[@dianelybarger6194]

Great to see your plan getting started. I know this was your plan for the last couple of years. It is tough being patient until the savings finally are enough to meet the plan's budget. It will be a dramatic change. Maybe you will want to stay longer to enjoy the fruits of your labor for a while.

[@lindylou3519]

Love that Abelia! Will be on the look out for that!❤

[@acasburn1460]

The Aussie native Grevillea looks familiar , should do well in California. 🇦🇺🫶😍👍

[@taragoodloe4122]

Way to go Robbie it's all coming together wonderfully.😊

[@meeravenkatesh1943]

Good morning Robbie..thoroughly enjoying all your videos..looking forward to your garden overflowing with gorgeous blooms and butterflies and hummingbirds..

[@RoseLoverRanch]

I love that you love hummingbirds!!! 🪹❤️

[@GardenHappy]

I love that you noticed and mentioned that Nichole! 🥰

[@jfaifua]

Pretty and good music too!

[@victoriamathews812]

The Wooly Grevillea is gorgeous! 😊 ❤

[@NITA-f7u]

Love that plant!!!!

[@SusanMcgrath-nx7dt]

Looking good!!❤

[@HoustonKeith72]

My goodness you have a lot planned!

[@darlenencambria]

Your snapdragons should last for a few years, just cut them back when they start to look leggy, I use a good organic flowering fertilizer and they will come back.. There are so many varieties of the Grevillea’s. I was told no fertilizer or summer water once established. I love these plants. Happy Gardening. 🧡

[@GardenHappy]

You are so right Darlene. And when they come back, they are actually bigger and stronger because they develop a nice root system. I just learned about this last year. Did not know about the nofertilizing though, great tip. Glad I read your comment. 🥰❤️ Liz

[@sharonpence6919]

@@darlenencambria thank you, I could not figure out what Robbie said or figure out the transcript only because I have never heard of this plant...Thankyou

[@lalaydade3364]

lol I totally see the pomegranate seeds, its such a neat plant never seen it before. Robbie you bring sunshine to my gloomy days!

[@janetroby5655]

Since you and Brent installed the water and electrical yourself, my garden math says you have a couple grand for free plants and decor. 💰🌹🌿 Janet 😀

[@GardenHappy]

That is such a great point and wonderful thought Janet!!! 🥰👍❤️ Liz

[@peggyfrommanitoba7310]

The hard work you two are putting in is so admirable. Love your enthusiasm! 😀🇨🇦

[@daiseegray9110]

Robbie, love your ideas. It’s so exciting but keep in mind you want to move and don’t want to spend big bucks for someone else. Make it yours with your fab ideas with less expensive. You will be able to save money and move sooner. Keep the expensive projects for your forever home. 🌼🐝

[@yorkie75]

Improving the appearance of the outdoor spaces will add value to the property and will make it much easier to sell

[@labradorgirl8890]

or he could plant and do what he wants.. everything can add value

[@donellechandler3256]

Seriously love the new plant - so pretty! You guys have made a lot of progress!!

[@noreenmcmenamin9610]

Love snapdragons, your garden is going to be gorgeous this summer, lots of hard work ahead for you but it's going to be so worth it 😊

[@audreyfisher7163]

Robbie you inspire me, I cannot wait to work in my garden . It turned real cold down in the Bay . Qw are waiting on your back yard oais,

[@rhondaschenk5727]

Wow Robbie! So much progress with the electrical and irrigation in! So exciting! Way to go!

[@jennifergreene8891]

Hi Robbie and Brent 👋 I LOVE THAT PLANT! YES PLEASE 😍 Loving the progress!! Jen😊

[@StaceyFernandes-ek9ks]

Hi Robbie and BRENT I love snapdragons. I started the Madame series in my grow room. I probably started them a bit. little early but I don’t care cause I love them. They just go and go and go your gardens coming out nice I can’t wait to see the actual end results when everything is done in your backyard it’s gonna be beautiful. Have a great day Stacey from Philly.

[@denisedooley6904]

So looking forward to seeing the results of all this planning and hard work. Your enthusiasm is contagious.

[@michelechase4596]

Robbie your gardening is coming along so well. It will be beautiful and look forward to seeing the transformation ❤

[@cathtf7957]

Cool!

[@jaqmackie]

Love grevilleas. I have a lot and so hardy for a sunny position here in Australia. FYI only feed with native Australian food = no phosphorus

[@annwoleben5439]

It's exciting to see your plan coming together! Good job, guys!

[@margolyn8291]

[@carlarivas1238]

Everything is looking fabulous Robbie and Brent.

[@nancymaier4289]

Beautiful additions to your garden! What are you going to plant in the big planters now? Love Freya!

[@LynnSargent-xx5ei]

The lettuce is pretty and will make a great salad for dinner! I’ve never grown snapdragons but they are so pretty! Love the plant you put in the front flowerbed! I need to look for those! Love how everything is coming along!

[@lisahowell3468]

Where did the evergreens go? I must have missed that video!😮 love the new pink plant !!!❤❤❤

[@peggy-ann1961]

A few videos ago Robbie moved them to the pergola flanking the “ mirrored gate”. They look great there.

[@HoustonKeith72]

That shrub is gorgeous! I've never seen or heard of it. Wonder how it does in a more humid climate like Houston.

[@maureenodendahl5057]

Sounds GREAT!! LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE THE PROGRESSION OF YOUR PROJECTS!!

[@pattykitade5706]

Nice to see you excited about your new plan! It’s suppose to rain tomorrow!

[@Laura-rx9mp]

WOW Robbie you are on fire!!! Cheers

[@medinasod2013]

Never heard the plant you planted in the front yard. It's beautiful yards coming along! Can't wait!

[@TGSHomeandGarden]

Can't wait to see your vision come to life!

[@MsAponte69]

Hi Mr Robbie.Im in zone 9 Southern AZ. I have Snap Dragons and stock flowers. They flower profusely at this time and mean right now. I feed them heavily. These plants are the only ones that have survived everything winter hits them with. Why are you waiting? I don't understand.

[@tamlamoore8369]

So beautiful already can’t wait to see the finished product ❤❤

[@rhondaschenk5727]

I love the new additions! Way to go!

[@lyonhawaii]

Yall got a lot done! Looks great!

[@shelliekneese5305]

Love the idea of a fireplace! If you need something before it's built, would a chiminea work? Also, I've never had a sprinkler system before- can you show a little how that works? I was surprised to see them in the corners. Does that mean you can direct the spray for each nozzle? Thanks for sharing this amazing project!

[@gelinda2718]

It's going to look soooo Beautiful I'm excited to see it all come together.

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thanks Robbie, sounds like you have some great plans ! ❄️☃️💚🙃

[@stefmcclure9386]

Morning Robbie, it is so nice to see you so happy and excited about all the new projects! Love the Grevillia plant!

[@aleagonzales]

Do you think you could do a video on your manifold system and how to tied into your system? And do have a pressure regulator? I try watching other videos and can’t seem to wrap my brain around it. 😅

[@Sue-cz1iw]

Looking good you two. I’m getting so excited to see the end results. I’m sitting here looking out the window at 7 inches of snow and can’t not wait to get my hands dirty. I have a lot of ideas to update my garden thanks to you. Great job. Thanks you for sharing. Cold in ohio.

[@valautolady358]

It looks wonderful. I avoided drip/irrigation for way too long because I was intimidated by it. Watched a bunch of Janey’s videos and gained the confidence to give it a try. Went with Rachio as well and love it. Looking forward to seeing all that you do with your space.

[@sydney8164]

It’s so exciting! I had a question- I know you and Brent are planning on moving. How do you go about in renovating/creating a garden that is temporary for you? I personally garden in my parents’ backyard, and it had made me feel like I’m doing everything for nothing, which made me very impatient (since I’m on a time limit) to complete the garden and to enjoy everything (since they take 3 years to leap!). Would love to hear your thoughts.

[@rhondafisher72]

Robbie, you and Brent are doing a great job. Can't wait to see what you plant.

[@MimiRoland]

Wow! You have made such great progress. So much hard work. It will be fantastic when completed. 😊

[@staceytaylor1502]

Very exciting Robbie! You have a lot to look forward to and the design will be beautiful!

[@Cynthia-zz1vi]

Oh Robbie we can now see it laid out gonna be so nice, know it’s gonna take awhile but you are definitely getting there, will be beautiful and a relaxing garden, can’t wait to see all your blooms this spring/summer 😊

[@darlenegera8866]

Robbie the Woolly Grevilleas is beautiful, but, because of its trailing habit wouldn't it be better in a tall pot??

[@debbiemiron]

Lol you guys are really busy your fur baby won't have a poopingstation😂

Question - do you cut back your Rose of Sharon before Spring? I just brought home the “Helene” Rose of Sharon from the Lowe’s clearance rack. She’s twiggy but alive (I scratched a bit of a branch to confirm). Should I trim some of the branches after putting her in the ground or leave her alone? TIA!

Snapdragons are not annual! They come back!

[@jeanniecarroll9119]

Snapdragons are mostly short-lived perennial plants, though some species are annuals. The simple leaves are usually lance-shaped. The flowers are tubular, bilaterally symmetrical, and usually large with a closed liplike mouth that excludes most insects but can be forced open by strong bees, the main pollinators. This was posted on Wikipedia. Snap dragons are annual in my zone 6B.

[@barbaramccann7944]

@@jeanniecarroll9119, agree, I’ve had some return in my north west Michigan zone 6 garden but I’ll be starting 200 seeds again this year, I consider them an annual.

[@notthatcourtney]

Me too, Jeannie! I’m also in the US in a zone 6b and I agree that snapdragons don’t tolerate the winter low temperatures here at all. I think where Robbie is he could technically consider snapdragons a tender perennial but based on microclimates, humidity, and other factors he might not mention in this video I trust him when he says snapdragons are annual for him as well.
