I have been looking for something like this for a long time. A true SF garden with the plants I like. Would love to see more content; when you cut back or do maintenance on your property or even when you do installations. You will have lots of followers.

This was a great tour I love how you take time to tell and show name on screen of all the plants I live in Navarre Fl near Pensacola and building a tropical garden over past 2 years you have given me some ideas of new plants to try. Can you share again how much sun that side yard gets? Thanks again

[@stylewithlivingart]

Yes absolutely, it’s on the north side of my house and gets light morning early afternoon sun that last till around 2:00 then filtered light because of the arecas and the shade they cast. Good luck on your garden 🪴

Hi 👋🏻 moved to Central Florida about a year ago. I’m in an HOA community that has a lovely brick wall around it, luckily we got a piece of property with a side yard and a backyard that I’ve been working on. There is a firehouse behind us and I’m trying to see what I can do to soften the look (aka hide the firehouse lol!) You’ve given me some wonderful ideas! Coming from the mountains in NC this is a whole new ballgame for me😊.

New subscriber here. I'm your people too! Your designs are amazing! I have a side yard with the neighbor's house 4 yards away filling my whole bedroom window view. My part of that space is 2yds by 20 yds. 9a/8b border, SE facing. Not sure what to do with so little width, can't put gates, fences, trellises or stone here - and my window top is about 15' up anyway - but will continue to check your videos for ideas. Thank you for the inspiration! Beautiful work! Watching these is literally like therapy or a meditation.

When the Livistonas get too tall to provide localized canopy, You've still got the Dypsis lutescens there that will stay closer to the ground.

[@ChristopherJohnsonArtist]

Hi, I loved your backyard garden tour and just came across this video. I've been looking for ideas for my tropical garden on a new property next year in Yucatan so 100% hot tropical with monsoon and dry seasons. Looking for ideas for privacy alongside a terrace and plunge (small) pool as well as ideas for something I could use like a hedge along the street sides of the property.

[@stylewithlivingart]

I hope you found the video helpful and some of the trees and plants within could work in your location. I’m sorry I’m unfamiliar with the area and what maybe available for your zone.

[@karynmccorcle3575]

Wow, so lovely. I am so grateful for your videos; they are so inspiring. We bought the empty lot next to our home and are trying to create a dreamy jungle setting like yours. You have such a gift and artistry; I wish we were located close enough to work with you. Could you possibly tell us about your direction/exposure? Does the front of your home look to the east? So this side yard design is facing south? I've never lived in an area where the direction of the sun matters so much when planning plantings. It's endlessly fascinating. Thank you so much for your postings.

[@stylewithlivingart]

Thank you so very much I’m glad you found it inspiring. I know it can be daunting starting with an empty space and yes sun direction is very important. The side yard is NW. however the bottom tier is pretty shaded by the larger tier. So keep that in mind try getting your taller material in place. Sometimes that will open the door using smaller shade plants where you wouldn’t normally be able to use them. Best of luck to you.

[@karynmccorcle3575]

@@stylewithlivingart Thank you; that's so helpful. I love, love, love your work; it's a little slice of Heaven. Your videos are truly unique and insightful. Thank you for taking the time to name and describe your plants.

[@c.m.303]

I love all the information that you have to share, and it's cute that your husband loves you so much that he's filming you instead of the plants. But it would be so much more informative if he would focus on the plants more and less on you so we can really get a feel for what you're talking about. Seems he'll pan to the plants for a moment but the camera is moving around so much it's hard to see the details. It's a bummer. Edit: Plus some of us get sea sick when the camera swings around so fast! I only made it half-way through.

Clusia Maintenance- how do you contain the clusia hedge? Hand pruning? How many times a year? I’d like to do Clusia hedge but worry about trimming it. Thank you for a great video

[@stacyd892]

Always so inspired and motivated when I watch your videos! Do you ever use Frangipani in your designs? Here in Cocoa Beach it's pretty much a staple for the yard. Would love to see how you would underplant them.

[@stylewithlivingart]

I love Frangipani and funny enough I added two to my back yard space a few months back. Maybe I’ll do an updated video to show their location. I underplanted them with dwarf gold dust crotons something large enough to hide the lower base of the tree but show off their blooms from above during the season. Thanks for your comment

[@Florida882]

Could you do a video on different palm trees and which zones they work for in Florida and what locations you have put them in yards that seemed to work well?

[@stylewithlivingart]

Absolutely great suggestion I always forget to specify the best zones for this or that tree. I will add that to my videos while describing the trees in the plant of the week videos.

[@Florida882]

@@stylewithlivingart thank you. I am a Florida native and I love watching your videos and listening to how you envision things.

[@Gggls844]

Wish you would give a list for what they need, also the names and shade or sun.

[@tmcaleer50]

I have been admiring your garden tours and your plant selection. Just beautiful! I am researching palms for my 10a/salt environment location. The Chinese Fan Palm Livistona chinensis is very beautiful but I hesitate to plant it. Upon researching it appears it is considered category II invasive in Florida due to the seeds spread by birds and ease in propogation. Can you tell me about the seeds and how you manage that aspect. Is it salt hardy and does it have a fibrous root system? I am considering this in an area where there is septic/leach lines. Thank you for sharing!

[@stylewithlivingart]

Great question, yes heavy rooted trees so Id be sure they were a good 30ft from septic or surround the area with a root guard( many options online). Yes they can create volunteers unfortunately that is the norm with so many palms since they seed so frequently, the best thing to do is cut out the pods when you notice them. Good luck!

[@mwerries]

Your garden is beautiful. ❤ I’m in zone 9a up in Navarre, FL. Do you think I could grow Clusia here? I’m trying to plant a privacy hedge. I’m going for a Mediterranean Tropical vibe. I already purchased Blue Arrow Junipers but would like my primary privacy screen to be more tropical.

[@stylewithlivingart]

I’m sorry I’m not as familiar with the temps in your area however they will do well in temps that don’t get cooler then 32 degrees. I love them hope they’ll work for you.

[@garymarshall1246]

Will 6 feet from House be ok to plant a Christmas palm and Foxtail palms ? Also near palms i wanted to plant some crotons in full sun. Is that ok ?

[@jonathanreyes2830]

Beautiful garden. How do you keep it from spreading over to your neighbors yards? I have a small yard that backs up to my neighbors home / small and we can’t use fencing but I would like to create a privacy tropical garden.

[@stylewithlivingart]

Well Jonathan that's the challenge isn't it. I usually start by using the most mature trees as the rear backdrop this helps to limb them up so we can see how or if we have any overhang into the neighbors yard. Then I go from there. If they are young research their growth habit most of the time if its an over hang of a palm frond and doesn't inhibit the neighbors from their own yard work then they do not mind the overhang. Even though no-one controls the air space they can cut any limbs overhanging on their side. Good luck to you!

[@Florida882]

When you cut the Areca palms do they regrow in the spot you cut or no? I saw that those tend to sprawl out and make new sprouts around them.

[@stylewithlivingart]

Great questions, They do not grow from the cut frond section. They are a clumping tree so they grow from the center base and the outside edges. However they can be kept as narrow as 3-4ft wide at the base with a little extra work. Since any of the trunks can be cut to fit the aesthetics of the tree it can be kept more narrow or overall shorter by trimming the tallest trunks. Hope that helps

[@grammie4]

how long from planting does it take to fill in as beautifully as yours? I'm guessing you most likely add to it continually.

[@stylewithlivingart]

I do as the plants and trees grow up more vertical. I tend to patch in to open spaces, lol I’ve never been a minimalist. I tend to pack it in when a spot opens up.😆

Great question. Unfortunately not they have a tendency to lose their leaves bleach out in color and real susceptible to pests when they’re that week. they love filtered and shade environments I seen them do the best where they get morning sun in by noon get very filtered light to shade throughout the remainder of the day. Best of luck
