Permaculture Garden Design: Suthi and Sanjay Nagar | Central Texas Gardener

When Suthi and Sanjay Nagar moved to Austin from Pasadena, Suthi wanted more than lawn in their small front yard. New to Texas and new to gardening, she got involved with the Austin Permaculture Guild to guide her resourceful path. By stacking functions-beauty, edible, wildlife habitat, medicinal, waterwise-now their garden’s a lively spot and a friendly neighborhood connection.

I have a family of Bumblebees living in a wooden swing on our front porch. They moved in about 5 years ago. My wife was terrified and wanted to destroy them! I insisted we give them a chance. Well, they have been great neighbors, and we can even swing without them bothering us.

The garden is really beautiful. I like to grow very dense as well to maximize the plant space. Step stones help that you can reach the plants in the back.

[@emmybellbell]

Beautiful! Such an inspiration!

[@CentralTexasGardener]

Thank you for joining us!

[@maribellerma7717]

Beautiful! I need help 😏 you are right cannot do it alone.

[@barbaracole4314]

That's pretty neat , I like your ideas about nature and preserving habitat... myself I'm fasinated with those big ol bumblebees, I like to watch them and take pics when you can get them to stay still.

[@CentralTexasGardener]

It can be a trick to get those bees to pose for a selfie!

I am inspired to start my own journey in my front and back yards. Thanks for sharing your beautiful gardens!

[@madajuarez7073]

[@patriciamechler7466]

This is so amazing, why not all do this? I am looking into taking this classes myself. Thanks for sharing.

[@brittnyrv5087]

My soul sister haha. I'm on a similar journey in the home garden!

Isn’t the Moringa tree a non-native and invasive tree for North America? Despite its usefulness, if it can take over our native species, should people be planting them?

[@Crina-LudmilaCristeaAuthor]

Lovely!🤗💛🤗

Oh, I’ve gotten stung by red wasps many many times. One chased me out of my greenhouse yesterday. They are def not my friends.☠️

[@MartinaSchoppe]

Beautiful garden! I hope it inspires many people to turn their lawn into something like that!

[@Jess_Tropical_jungle]

How amazing my front yard would be if only I didn’t have an HOA lol

[@lpmoron6258]

What a beautiful front yard!

[@doraw7766]

Thank you. You made the video fun.

[@StillOnTrack]

I've had the same experience in Austin with the big red wasps. The ones in my yard are definitely not aggressive. They seem pretty unconcerned with us for the most part, except they actually LOVE our bird bath and wait patiently for us to refill it in the summertime. I plan on making them their own separate watering station this summer with rocks to keep them from drowning like she describes, and to keep this second one from being splashed in and dirtied by the birds.

[@mandiegarrett1706]

This is totally awesome. How do you grow Moringa tree outside during winter? I thought Moringa tree is not frost hardy? I am in Arkansas, zone 7b.

[@burningstrawman2589]

Beautiful garden and great for our pollinator friends. The medicinal mumbo-jumbo is just silly...but it's ok.

[@allysonvollmer7223]

wow!!!

[@samuraioodon]

any solutions if there is a huge oak tree in front of the house? the leaves fall every year and its a chore to rake, i use it for mulch but it smothers the plants and grass below.

[@ccmarketgirl]

Would love to find a fountain like the one shown. Could you share where you got it?

[@utubepunk]

She probably has an Instagram where you could ask.

[@ejsrn724]

Ahhh GOALS!!!

[@txcuriocorner]

Awesome!! Lol get that crepe myrtle out of here!!

[@utubepunk]

Crepe murder!

[@dparamful]

What class did you take, again?

[@CentralTexasGardener]

Permaculture. There are permaculture groups everywhere to teach classes. In Austin, it's the Austin Permaculture Guild.

[@thefarmingnurse]

Of course they’re from Pasadena and moved to Austin

[@thunderrollsmedia]

Austin is not central Texas
