- Thank you for continuing to watch us try and update our backyard! We've been slowing working on our side yards for the past couple of weeks. As anything good in life it takes a lot of time and preparation to start and finish it, while keeping a toddler interested (LOL). In the next video I'll show you our final look. Zone 9b

Thank you for continuing to watch us try and update our backyard! We've been slowing working on our side yards for the past couple of weeks.

You all are doing a great job! Mila is so big and strong. Also, I love your sun hat. It is so nice and wide, but also cute. :)
I’m enjoying your gardening videos very much! I used to live in Sacramento and it reminds me of my gardening days there. ❤️
So good to see you Maria!! Thank you for sharing your yard and what you are doing with us! We all love you!
Thank you for continuing with heartwarming "blooming" videos, very soothing and helpful for me! Love your trademark intro/outro fairy sound always reminds me of your videos, you and Mila are the sweetest gardeners! 💕 🌻
Hi Masha I just wanted to let you know that the tree roots will lift the concrete up eventually! I love your videos!
“sometimes as a mother I’m not looking, I’m looking away”…..my mom would have to agree with you HAHA
as a professional gardener i think you and darryl and mila are doing great! very good choice to go with cardboard instead of landscaping fabric. i really hate that fabric with a passion lol. the mulch looks super even so props to darryl!! and all your ideas are sound and sensible for your terrain and microclimate. i can't wait to see the reveal in your next vid!
Glad to know you went with cardboard instead of the fabric. I hate that stuff. I learned the hard way a few years ago the fabric is a nightmare and should never be used. I’m still finding that crap all over. I’m zone 5b so I don’t have much other advice except to buy and grow native plants, plants that are good for droughts. Gardening is full of trials and tribulations. I’ve cried many times out of frustration and anger and yet I keep doing it year after. I love it.
It’s so nice to hear you talking with Mila in Russian. Being bilingual is such an advantage nowadays.
I love when you and Mila speak Russian, I would've loved for my dad to teach me Vietnamese growing up🥹
I couldn’t be more happy that you now share the same hobby as me! I look forward to your videos on both channels and am sending you light and love friend 💕
darryl popping his head in the back of the video to be included haha
I feel like I hit the jackpot and God answered my prayer when I found this channel today!😆🙌 I love your asmr but was thinking “I’d love if Maria just shared her logic/ways of doing things with normal everyday life” and THIS is it! I love gardening so thank you for the cardboard method explanation!
Yay for berries in the 'weird' shade area! You'll love them. Some of my best memories with childhood friends are spending time in our tearoom we made in the berry canes.
I try to watch video in English, because I live in Russia and have an exam in English. To be honest, it is very hard for me, but I try to do it :)
Besides, I enjoy watching your video about garden)) It is very interesting!! I am sorry, if I were mistake :)
You speak very good English!
Oh i love hummingbirds thank you for some clips of them, they make me so happy.
I think it'll be so fun to see what the yard looks like in a couple years!
I’ve never seen anyone do that with cardboard…what a neat idea. I despise that plastic, it’s awful. I love these videos! 🪴
I love that you allow Mila to be involved so much that she has her own space to freely garden in. This can help her learn about the world around her in a hands-on way which can help her development
If you can get wood chips just keep dumping a good depth of them onto the card board and it will break down to the softest and most amazing soil .. mulch is nice but the wood chips give you a soil .. never dig or till again when you get started .. permaculture produces an amazing garden with very very little weed control maintenance .. you're going to have a paradise in that yard :) good job kids .
I turned this video on to watch while I prep my cardboard for my new beds lol 🤣 neat to hear you talk about it.
A native plant you might consider that attracts hummingbirds is California fuschia (Epilobium canum). Does well in dry conditions, will grow into a ground cover, and is a beautiful native plant.
Hi Masha, I think you probably won't get this, but I have been watching you since you used to live in MD/VA/DC! I grew up in that area so would follow along. I now have a baby and am doing some hardcore gardening this year as well! So therapuetic and grounding, helps to make me feel centered with everything going on with work and family and the world. I also bought the Grandpa's weeder you had mentioned and it works hilariously well. It is way too much fun (I think I am getting old!)! Sending you and your family lots of love.
what a fun family hobby! my favorite memories are with my grandmother; we spent our mornings watering plants, digging holes for flowers and herbs, picking vegetables and so much more:)
That shady side yard is probably perfect for hot days, especially eating outside. Couple benches, some solar powered small fountains - one lady made one on RUclips with a $15 solar pump with long cord. The small solar panel could be mounted on fence/roof if cord is long enough. Great lawn golf area to play too.
We have locusts here too I hate them lol. They pop up sprouts literally EVERYWHERE! I have to yank them out of the middle of our yard all the time. I do love all the wildlife your yard has though! So inviting!
Shout out to all the landscape designers to help our beautiful Maria with her gardening projects!!! 🌱🍀🌻
Mila got so big since last time I've watched the vlog channel! 😆 it's been a few years.
Your garden is really beautiful! I dream of having one with my boyfriend and growing my own herbs, vegetables and flowers
What is it about hummingbirds-whenever one shows up in our garden everyone in the house drops what they’re doing to watch it 😂 they’re just magical I think.
On that hill on the side with the wisteria-maybe some drought tolerant shrubs or clumping grasses to help with any runoff issues (if that’s a problem)? We have a deep slope like this that we are still working on but those have helped a bit with the soil situation. Also letting wildflowers grow-a lot of the ones that we consider weeds in the yard are actually great nitrogen fixers.
4:01 Morning glories, you'll never get rid of them!
I’m so glad you decided to sheet mulch!! Wow!! So much more efficient than the fabric and MUCH MUXH better for the environment!!
Sprinkling the seeds around everywhere and hoping something will grow is a big mood lol that’s my plan for the grass seed this year is just to dump it everywhere and hope it will stick
It didn't work 😬💀
@@GentleWhisperingASMR Bummer! We were honestly thinking about growing some kind of clover in the gaps in our yard where grass won’t grow, it is kind of a weed? but at least it’s green and we have lots of bunnies in our neighborhood 🥺
i love this more in depth series of the gardening, it’s very inspiring! im a cali resident as well and my mom loves to fill her garden so your videos remind me of seeing my mom garden when i lived at home ♥️ awesome video!
That’s our fav beer lately too! We went to Hawaii in March and since then we’ve been on a kick lol
Maria to hummingbird: are we bothering you?
Mila: nooooo
😂
I’m soooo jealous of the spot in your yard that gets all those hours of sun!! There’s literally nowhere on my property that gets enough sun to grow tomatoes☹️ I tried last year just to see and they didn’t do well at all. I live in crappy weather Oregon on top of it lol I’m thinking of asking my neighbors if I can grow tomatoes in their yard because they get all the sun😂🤷♀️
Love your gardening videos!! 🪴🌸🌿🌼
You have such a lovely yard Masha!!! I’ve also been very into gardening lately so I love that I can see what you’ve been working on too! 🥰 wishing you the best of luck on your journey
Thank you for sharing your beautiful project with us. I´m sure Mila will remember these moments when she grows up!
These vlogs are really helping me relax and forget the little things that bother me troughout the daily life. I really wanna thank you for being raw and calming🌸🧡
It’s coming along! Looking great!
it’s already starting to look so gorgeous! all that hard work is paying off
I am living for these videos! 😌😌😌
I have sort of transitioned out of finding relaxation in ASMR videos, but these videos definitely offer relaxation for me. They are also relevant to my life, I too am transforming a part of my yard into a peaceful garden area. Thank you for making these and I look forward to the next video! 😁
i love videos on this channel so much 🥰🥰🥰
Hello Maria!!!!We watching you from Greece!!!!💋💋
I have heard a lot about those planters with the saucers attached at the bottom…..be careful with watering as the water can pool at the bottom and your plant can get “root-rot”. I’m not sure how accurate this is but I thought I would pass it along.
I laughed really hard at Mila's cute little "no" at 7:28.
In the end it's going to look wonderful, Masha. Family gardening goals!! Seeing Mila's enthusiasm to help and want to do things is super cute. Hummingbird! I can't wait to see the next one. 🍃🌳👩🏼🌾🌺🌿🐦
Чудесный yard, ты просто молодец что ухаживаешь и делает природную красоту на заднем дворе :))) Побольше таких видео о посадках и садике
Wisteria is a pain but when it flowers it is worth it lol
🌸🌷HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY🌷🌸
I am from the SF/Bay Area and my cousin in San Bruno grows so much in her garden. Lemons, tomatos, pumpkins, strawberries, lettuce...like you said, Spring and Summer lasts a long time here, haha.
Omg - the blackberry bushes on our property (not too far from you - in the Sierra Foothills near Plymouth ) grow out of control like a weed and try to take over.
Can’t wait to see your progress. My garden is coming along great and that rain we got was wonderful!
Your gardening videos give me so much peace, I hope you keep uploading these videos!
I haven’t watched yet but when I see a sassy Masha video I get SO excited these are my absolute favourite and it doesn’t even matter what you’re talking about I just love your voice, and your company and seeing what you’re up to 🥰
I'm so excited to see how you tackle the tunnel with the cattle cage wire. I'm 100% beginner in gardening and have always wanted to try projects like these but seeing you go for it makes it look less intimidating
Oh I used that same pollinator mix and it is going wild!
I can't get over how wholesome these videos are. Love them!
замечательно у вас все получается! скоро будет чудесный сад-огород) очень вдохновляюще, хочется держаться поближе к природе, глядя на ваше воодушевление, Маша))
You and your family are doing a great job! 😊 Mila is funny and so helpful. ❤️ I'm so happy to see you truly enjoying this process!!
Black locust is very good fire wood if you have a fire pit. Very high heat with minimal smoke.
You need to put clay balls and a drainage blanket, before placing the earth in the pot, to drain the earth. So the roots don’t rot over time.
We fluffed up the dirt, put cardboard, then planters, put down cut branches and grass cuttings, then soil from our yard, topped with compost and now potting soil. I hope it'll keep it lose and thriving. I think our sun will fry any extra water out real quick, I'm more worried about not having enough water right now hehe :D
Hi Maria, Crika F. meant in the flower pot that you re-potted your plant you should put the clay balls, etc. to make sure the water can drain out of the pot properly and not drown the plant's roots. She wasn't talking about the shady side yard project. Good job on all of the projects, though, everything is going to look great!🪴
Thank you for showing us your precious Mila! She is adorable, and I loved when in your birthday video last summer she said, "Happy Birthday, Mama!", in her sweet little voice!!
Just know that you are loved and appreciated. I hope you and all of your family wherever they are stay safe. PEACE!😊 -Jennifer L.
2:12 Maria is an unbelievably fast gardener.
You have a beautiful backyard, I love the hills. It’s gonna look great 😍
Watching on a rainy day and this video relaxed my entire nervous system, thank you! Love these garden updates Maria 🤍🦋
What a nice family moment 🥰🥰
It looks amazing Maria! Good job family! 😊👏
I feel your pain. We are finally doing our landscaping this year and it's definitely a journey! And I love big wave too lol 🥰
Great progress! Landscape work is quite the task and can take a long period of time because of the time and/or because of budgets, and adding a toddler into the mix can be a lot too.
Maria! Thank you for sharing this! I had to wait for our power to come back on but glad I was able to relax and enjoy your projects!
Thank you for these lovely gardening videos, they've been peaceful and delightful
Omg, so many boxes! Great job. Hummingbirds are magical.
lovely to see a little step by step gardening journey! berries along the fence sound great
Love getting the garden updates! I love gardening so this is fun to watch! Hoping to make changes to mine this year too!
I love watch these, it almost makes me want to garden then I remember how lazy I am an how much my garden hates me lol 😆
So cozy to follow you around in the garden! Excited to see the progress. Loved the hummingbird 🥰
I'm over in the Auburn area, and those Locust trees really do pop up everywhere. They are starting to bloom now, though, and their flowers are incredibly sweet smelling.
You have a beautiful home and family with a wonderful place to grow.
Awesome...it's coming along nicely.🌳🪴🌱🌷
I find gardening so very fulfilling and grounding. Even as a really experienced gardener things don't always go as planned or I change my philosophy and style and goals and that's OK - it's all learning - we grow as gardeners as our garden grows around us. 💚
I now really want to find a hat like your hat! ☺
Looks good so far! Can’t wait until we move out of our apartment and into a house so that I can have a beautiful garden like yours. Can’t wait to see the finished result! 😊
Love your little helper. Hey thanks for the heads up on the weeder. I bought two.
Wow it looks great already! Love your ideas for the side area, that’s gonna be such a cool spot now.
We have a very short growing period here before dall/winter comes back! 3 or 4 months max. Have fun!! Look forward to seeing the progress
I loved watching your last garden video with your daughter. It was so wholesome and nice to watch. I look forward to more updates. Hope you’re having fun! 💛💛
Mila is so big! I love the yard progress. It's coming along nicely!
Big wave!!! Perfect 😍
Absolutely beautiful!
I have just started delving into gardening myself, in fact you inspired me. I ordered that dandelion extracter and it works great! Thanks for the recommendation! I love both your channels so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
If you plan on having beautiful gardens .. get rid of the locust it is the worst damn tree you can have .. it will seed and sprout everywhere and they are a menace to weed.. your prep to garden is wonderful.. loving the hard work that you are doing .. it will pay off .. your little one is truly an entertainer .. she is a bright light like her momma ..
Love this series. Really enjoying it and look forward to seeing it develop! You’re all doing a great job.
Love the privacy you have in your yard! You guys are doing a great job!
I'm 44 & just found out I'm expecting! If a girl, (we're going to wait) we want to name her Mila.
It is coming along. I think it will be lovely when you are finished.
I love watching your garden grow and change! Sounds like your family has some fun projects (and hard work!) ahead. Good luck this growing season :)
So good to see you💕
Hello Gardener Girl Marsha, it's Old Dave again. How are your nails holding up? Your hair still looks great, but your un-madeup look is quite striking (when I've only seen the vlogger girl at her beautiful best) LOL. But it's so good to see you out as a family, digging in the dirt.
Congratulations Darrel on pitching in.
I have been lamenting the arrival of Spring because, I actually am old and I've gotten out of shape 'cause I've been sitting around all Winter, except for a 1-mile walk every day and stretching exercises every night, so being in my production nursery (I grow perennials for resale) with the rototiller and a shovel for the last 4 days has made my body really soar. When I put the beds down for the Winter last Fall I was hoping lots of stuff would die over our severe Winter months. But here I am rearranging the layout to better protect from the deer which have their favorites, they were in the vegetable garden night before last leaving tracks all around. This is Minnesota and the night time temps are still below freezing and we haven't had a 60 deg. day yet this year.
Looking forward to seeing your yard project as it develops. Bye for now..............................Old Dave
I love this! I also am passionate about gardening, especially flowers and natives, so I'm loving these vids
Loved this vid, i can't wait for the next garden update ♥️
Wow makeup does wonders!!
Great video.
Beer, always needed! And, for any areas where nothing will grow, buy rubber papers, which allow rain water to absorb. I have lots in my small backyard, and plan to buy more this year. Keep it up, and all will look great!
Really enjoying these lovely videos Maria. I feel gardening is such a good stressbuster - for me anyway. I find it so rewarding even when I achieve something small. It's good for the soul. I'm currently in a battle trying not to kill an Acer I bought recently - yours is beautiful but mine is not doing well so I need to re-think. Send me good Acer vibes guys! 😊 p.s. Great to see your assistant Mila enjoying the garden too.
I am loving these garden update videos!!! Its giving me so much more motivation to keep working in my garden! Thank you for more amazing content, its such a nice mental break from everything else going on 😁💜
