Hi. Sorry for the delayed response. Check out Vista Lighting at vistapro.com. You will have to check for a retailer who carries them in your area. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

Hi. Sorry for the delayed response. The trail is made from Decomposed Granite also just called DG. Depending on how much traffic you predict, there are various methods of installation. You will need border material along the perimeters to hold it in place. We used Benderboard which comes in long 20 ft pieces at your favorite hardware store. It should be staked down every 3-5ft depending on the terrain. I don’t recommend DG if the path is sloped. The DG may “run” with heavy rains. Flat services are best.

Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your feedback.

Sorry for late reply. October is the perfect month to plant California natives!

Where are you located?

@@SongbirdGardenDesign I'm in northern Arkansas zone 7b where the humidity is very high. The summers are hot and tropical even when we get sporadic rainfall.

Thanks!

@@SongbirdGardenDesign I no longer know how I knew that. I probably looked it up while watching the video. 😅

Hi! The Magnolia I was showing is a dwarf species called ‘Little Gem’. You don’t have to be concerned about the roots doing damage. But you’re right, the larger species are not good as street trees if planted to close to sidewalks. Thank you for your input!

Thank you. I’m so happy to hear that. Good luck.

Thanks Stephen. Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi Kay. Pest control isn’t really my specialty but are you sure it’s Gophers? Gophers usually eat the roots of the plants from under the ground. Kangaroo Paws and Phormium have something in common…They will NOT tolerate poor drainage. Do not let them sit in soggy or soil that is too moist. They should be planted with their root balls mostly showing above ground level and don’t smother them with mulch. I hope this helps. Thank you for watching and thank you for your comment.

Thank you. I am really glad it helped. Let me know what you’re planting !

Thank you. I LOVE Plants!!!

Hey Thanks! Keep me posted on the Community Garden project.

Start with a tree! It takes some TLC to start one off right but then you can enjoy it years to come. 😎

I’ll let Ken Jacobsen know. He composed this so quickly for me. I love it too.

@@SongbirdGardenDesign what a team you two are! So talented!

Thank you!

Thank you. What type of roses are you planting? Roses like full sun so make sure they get 6+ hours a day. Good luck.

Hi. I also have multi trunk Palo Verde in my front yard. Wonderful tree! Australian Willows are lovely evergreens. Are the Strawbery Tree (Arbutus Marina?) and Japanese Blueberry(Elaepcarpus decipiens) standard trunks? Blueberry more of a shrub shape but both can have beautiful canopies! Both grow slow so if you’re looking to create a shaded area best to start with a 24” box or larger. Sounds like you made great choices! Good luck.

Hi. Thanks Rose. I'll look into Dr. Ethan's videos. Hope you are staying healthy and safe.

Hi Myeah - thanks so much for subscribing. I went to Pierce College in the Los Angeles area. I studied horticulture and Landscape Design. Many of the professors have changed since I was there but I think it is a wonderful school. It was originally founded as an agricultural college but unfortunately that area of study seems to be fading. There were plans on the table to build a whole new horticulture school including a Greenhouse but I don't know when or if that will happen at this point. Good luck with your designing career. Where do you live?

@@SongbirdGardenDesign I live in Silver Lake! I was looking into Pasadena city college but wanted other options, cheers and thank you😁

Hi Karlah - They are bearded Iris. Comes in many varieties and colors. You plant the bulbs in Fall for Spring blooms. If you are in SoCal I keep them in filtered light or on the East side of property for morning sun. The bulbs multiply quickly within a couple years so don't start with too many. My neighbor actually gave me bulbs a few years ago and I now have plenty to share. :-)

Have a simlilar purplr /lavender Iris that is an old variety that blooms 1/yr. Ours smells like root beer (flowers). Great multipier and have given the rhyzomes away.

Thank you so much!

Thank you. Wow. Your balcony is fantastic. Well done!

Hi I am in Sunset Zone 18 and USDA 9.Sunset Zones are more accurate as they take many more variables into account.

Thanks. I am in 10a. Like your videos!

@@gagehindle210 Thank you very much. Happy Holidays.

Thank you, Eileen. You are always positive and encouraging.

Maricela Hinojosa Hi Maricela, Thank you so much. Good luck in your new location. You may want to check out my latest Succulent video. They will do great in USDA 10b.

I am so happy it helps.

Thank you so much. That oak tree is difficult. Oaks just don’t like other plants around them. I don’t want to recommend messing with the soil because you don’t want to disturb the oaks roots which are close to surface. I was thinking decorative pea gravel.

My pleasure. Thank you so much for subscribing.

Thanks.

Hi - Thanks for Subscribing. Wow. You are way up North. From what I researched (USDA Zone 11) your seasons are well defined with hot summers and cold winters. Citrus will freeze with frost if not protected. (Depending on your microclimate.) If you are thinking of giving citrus a try I would wait until Oct. to plant until the temperatures cool down and before the cold hits. However, depending on the type of citrus you choose you may not want to plant if the tree is still fruiting. In which case wait until April for best results. Refer to my How to Plant video. Remember not to plant too low. All the best.

Ok. Sounds good. Take care.

Thank you.

Glad it helped!
