It’s nice when a larger property has meandering pathways to walk and enjoy the garden from all angles. Great video/plant commentary and birdsong! Felt like I was taking an outdoor break!
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.
Have many of these plants- but the gophers have been eating the Kangaroo Paws and Phormium off at the ground. Any suggestions on keeping these plants alive?
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.
@@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.
You did a beautiful job making area look so natural. Love your tree selection and all the plants that will attract and home pollinators.
Beautiful Design! Thank you for all your great work
Hey Thanks! Keep me posted on the Community Garden project.
So nice ... thanks 💯
Great job and thanks for the tour. So much color and I love the emphasis on drought tolerant plants. What a soothing and calming atmosphere.
Thanks Stephen. Glad you enjoyed it.
The music blends so well with the content, I noticed it on the second viewing and paid more attention. A soothing composition!
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!
MB I wish I had a house close by you and plenty of space for you to work your miracles in the garden...
Start with a tree! It takes some TLC to start one off right but then you can enjoy it years to come. 😎

Beautiful.
Thank you!
There are path lights visible at 4:29 -- could you share where you purchased them? I would like some for my garden. Thank you.

How does one create the trail? 😊👍🏾

Unfortunately, my drought tolerant plants all rotted during a normal summer when we had an average summer rainfall.
Where are you located?
