Thank you so much for watching today! I appreciate you so much! I hope today's video inspired you!❤
I’ve been wanting to do something in my front yard and you’ve inspired me to try it! Thanks again!
@@rachelpeterson1286 That's great to hear! You'll love it!
Beautiful 😍!! In order to avoid runoff, you will have to add edging or borders. Just a friendly advice
@@jesusgirl2470 Thank you! Haven't had any run of as of yet and jave lots of rain! Keeping fingers crossed!
@@homeandgardenwithanna. that's great 👍 👌
I put in 4 flower beds last year using cardboard. What I did was I planted all my plants in the ground first, then I cut the cardboard around the plants and topped the cardboard with mulch. I'm a widow living on Social Security so I was trying to do it the most cost effective way so I didn't need to put soil down. So far it looks like all my perennials are coming back this year.
Your flower beds look beautiful..💚
Love that, too! I am so happy it worked out for you!
Yes, you can do that you totally can!! but if you want the raised bed look, you do have to add topsoil and mulch, I was married to Landscape contractor for 16 years lol I’ve learned quite a bit. But yes, actually the cardboard is better for the soil and it actually helps the earth worms and it completely is biodegradable so it’s actually better than using a landscape fabric in my opinion. But when you’re on a budget, it doesn’t matter if they’re raised or not I totally agree and I’m glad your perennials are coming back this year. That’s wonderful. Apparently the cardboard is working. 🌷🪴😊
Going to try your idea, 👍
Don't know your zone but when I lived in zone 6 I planted a border of Liriope. Worst mistake I ever made! It sent out suckers even underneath sidewalk. After 2 years of attempting to control that issue i gave up. Removed every bit and went with stacked rock border and planted annuals every spring. Each spring I switched plants to avoid boredom. Lol. Good luck with your endeavours. BTW a word from this gardener: never overplant perennials. Allow for mature growth as posted on can label. Those annual Sunpatiens are way too close. Instant planting to appear full is costly and wasteful. Overcrowding young plants results in spindly growth sacrificing the mounding habit. Not criticizing your first efforts; just offering bit of advice from this well-seasoned gardener of 50+ years.
If that's the worst mistake you ever made, you've been living a blessed life! 😂
There’s two types. You got the invasive one, loriopi spicata. The ones planted in this video are non invasive, loriopi muscara.
Ive had the non-invasive Liriope that has the tall purple flowers and its been in its place the last 23yrs. Im in zone 7 as this lady is. 😊
Looks good! Knowing me and my kids we’d probably drive over it
You beat me to those recommendations!!! Spacing IS much too close. And the hydrangea will eventually overgrown all of the surrounding plantings, including the Liriope. I Love Liriope. I have it as a continuous border in one area of my front yard and as separate specimens in other areas in front and back yards.
I watched this video because I couldn’t figure out how you were gonna get those annuals in the ground without digging. But I get it now. Sometimes I think I buried my brain in a hole. My RUclips channel (if I had one) would be called Downhill After 50. No, Downhill with No Brakes. Your entire yard is lovely - neat, tidy, colorful and verdant. Thanks for sharing! Great teamwork!
You do you! Rather it’s a garden, garden bed, flower bed, monkey grass and how ever many you plant or whatever type of grass you got growing in your yard. You do you! Thanks for sharing. It’s going to look beautiful!
Thank you, Dana! ❤️
FINALLY! Someone who uses the term “monkey grass!” Folks have been frowning at me for years.
HAHA! They had no tags and everyone at the nursery called it monkey grass. I tried saying the botanical name and butchered it. Monkey grass it is! LOL!
the green monkey grass is horrible it's super invasive...i have it everywhere I hate it, but the striped liriope is totally diff it works great
@@cass77788 sounds like something I need because I kill everything and can’t grow diddly squat! if we ever lose our food chain, we’re going to starve to death 🤪 so will monkey grass grow in clay because that’s all my backyard is stinking clay!!
@@ginnicronin4916 Clay? Me too. Thinking about making pottery instead of gardening! LOL!
I call it monkey grass too so did my mama thats where I got it from
The no dig garden!! Immediately starts digging lol
Exactly!!!!😂😂😂
Riiiiight! I chuckled when I saw that🤣
Doesn't look like she is digging through the cardboard for the smaller plants. She is just creating a hole in the mulch for them. The mulch will eventually turn into a rich soil.
I appreciate all the hard work you and your husband did to make this video. You both did a great job. Please keep making videos. It nice to see someone like me wholeheartedly enjoying what you do. Thank you
Thank you so much! ☺️
I thoroughly enjoyed your video! It was so relaxing to watch-and I love the idea!!
@@jancampbell883 Thank you!
❤❤❤❤Bravo,it was very relaxing after looong day at work;)
I too did a no dig garden on the side of my home next to my driveway. I used cardboard and planted fire chief arborvitae bushes, small specimen weeping norfolk pine, some mondo grass and some perennials. Soaked the cardboard then covered it all with 3 to 4 inches of mulch. It's going in the 3rd year and has worked out beautifully.
Love it! I have two sides of my home ill be doing this on a well. Can't wait!
Maybe topping cardboard with mulch instead of soil keeps the weeds at bay better? When you mow the bad stuff doesn’t have as good of a chance of surviving? The issue is any further planting just using mulch you are not able to plant on top , you would have to dig? But the digging gets it down where the worms and good critters are? The good fungi… just some thoughts after watching countless videos of no dig gardens and the criticisms… etc
@gmaw23beauties37 the purpose was to kill the grass and weeds without having to use pesticides or hand dig them out. The cardboard smothers everything. Main thing is to wet the cardboard so it lays flatter. Worms will eventually eat the cardboard and turn it to mulch. I was able to plant right away cutting thru the cardboard to insert the plants. When planted added the mulch....soaked it down and it worked out beautifully.
I like how well you and your hubby work together. I like the design that you came up with.
Thank you!
Love it! You have inspired me to make corner beds.
People who are saying "too close," they are just plants. They can always be moved. The liriope will do its job and make new plants, which can be divided in a few years and moved to another bed.
So happy to inspire! Thank you so much!
Great job Anna!
Beautiful garden with beautiful lady, diy no dig garden! I’ve learned something today! 🌹🇺🇸👍🤩
Thank you! ♥️
I think this is a good idea but, you may want to consider using landscape fabric as well. Over a period of time, the cardboard is going to decompose and you will have grass in your beds. Another thing to consider is what type of grass you have in your lawn. If you have Bermuda grass, it reproduces by fragmentation of rhizomes and runners. This is why you would need landscape fabric doubled up. I think this is important too know if you have creeping grass such as Kentucky Blue grass, Bermuda, Creeping Red Fescue etc.
Despise landscape fabric! lol. I just pulled it up in backyard. We have fescue. We will deal with it as it is. We did use the fabric in backyard on bermuda and it killed it like you said. But, different conditions out front. Thank you! keep the advice coming!
@@homeandgardenwithanna. I despise landscape fabric, too. The previous owners put it all over and we're still finding it 13 years later! I put down cardboard last fall to kill grass and now the grass has come up through the cardboard and soil. Hope you have better luck with yours.
@@maryr7800 me too!
Ugh hate landscape fabric! I use cardboard boxes to start a new garden. I usually do one in the fall and by spring bam! All ready!
@@taracorley3291 Cardboard helps temporarily by choking the grass and weeds. After the cardboard decomposes which will be very soon the grass and weeds come up.
Looks great!!! Thanks for sharing how to do a no dig garden!!!😊
You're welcome! 💛
That was a fun little project! It turned out great babe!!😘😘😊😊🥰🥰
Thank you for all your help! ❤️
Love the corner beds. This will be stunning when it blooms. Its stunning now so imagine when it blooms. Your home will stand out like it should. Beautiful as always.
Thank you, Sonia! ❤️
Beautiful!
My first time sucked as it rained real hard days after. This made the area a swamp as the water didn't go through the cardboard and the mulch wasn't as deep as yours. I now poke holes in the cardboard to let the water get through.
Also, digging a deep trench that slopes helps keep the mulch from spilling all over the edges.
Just a part of learning.
Awe, man! That stinks. So far, so good over here. Not any runoff, and everything seems to be doing good!
Absolutely lovely🥰🥰🥰
I love the no dig garden. I'd get some no dig edge for them and add a little rope solar light to add something to show them off at night. I just used a hot tip of my soldering irion, put holes in the edging and then zip tied the rope lights to the top. I measured and installed before placing in the bed..
Love that!
Before you know it it'll look like a carnival😂
Thank you for sharing Anna. and Ernie. There's nothing like reclaiming a space of barren lawn. I just learned about sheet mulching and no dig a few years ago, and what a relief: less work in the long run, easier care, better for the environment, seasonal beauty that supports local wildlife... I look forward to reports of your new beds ' growth!
You're welcome! Happy to share! I'm new to it as well. We'll see how it grows!
You two work beautifully together. I love watching you create beauty.
Thank you so much! ☺️
Look Beautiful!😊
Beautiful work
Greeting's from Ireland, My wife has no interest in gardening but tells me that our small front garden looks like a mini garden centre and I wouldn't blame her. At the moment there are fifty two pots of perennial's, six pot's of annual's on the windowsill's and four flower bed's. There is a glasshouse out in the back and a no dig veg garden. I'm thinking of creating no dig flower bed's out the back in autumn. I plan to split plants that have been in pots for a number of year's and plant them in the new bed's. I make my own compost in the three bay system and should have enough for both the veg and flower's.
Wowie! This is awesome! How wonderful to have enough plants to create a new garden and for free essentially! Congrats!
Awesome!!! Cant wait to see it all bloomed. It will be Beautiful!!
Me too! Thank you, Tammy!
What a great idea. I'm handycap and its hard for me to do much but with my husband will help. I'm encouraged. Now I can do this. Thank you. Beautiful!!!
I'm so happy to help!
Wow! So pretty! Love your knee holder also!
Thank you! I got it at Walmart. I linked it for y'all in the description
Beautiful
Extremely beautiful. Amazing idea

Posthole diggers are life safers for digging holes when planting.
It is beautiful Anna. I can't wait to see it when everything blooms.
Thank you, Dena! Me too!
Such a great idea Anna I love the flowers you chose 💕
Thank you, Deborah! ❤️
Love the way your corners came out. They look great and definitely gave me some inspiration. Never thought of a "no dig" way to plant. Can't wait to see more from you.
I'm so happy you got some inspiration from today's video! Thank you so much!
Awesome! Never heard of NO Dig gardening.
Lovely
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!❤
Thank you!
Anna, the corner beds look amazing! So lovely!!! Can’t wait to see when it blooms!!!!
Thank you! Me too! ☺️
Maybe a brick or stone trim around the dirt and the sidewalk/driveway
Should also help keep kids and dogs off the garden bed
Yeah, because bleeding will be a constant problem - even strong winds when soil is dry will be all over the pavement.
That is what I did. Even with the trench, it will still wash out when it rains hard. I placed small pavers around mine. It looks good and keeps a mess off of my driveway and the curb.
This looks so pretty. I think I'll give this a try this year. Looking forward to gardening time!
You will love it! ❤️ It's the best time of year, isn't it?!
The garden bed’s turned out beautiful can’t wait to see them bloom specially the grasses with the purple flowers 💜
Thank you, Julia! I'm excited too! 😊
I enjoyed your video! I’ve heard of various similar methods but it is so helpful to see someone do it! Nice choice of plants too!
Thank you, Sandra!

Thank you! ♥️
Beautiful ❤
Thank you!
Thank you
Heyllo did the no dig work after that rain came through. LOVING all the teamwork and landscape designs you have come up with.Thanks for putting a smile on my face when you are digging and designing your yards
Thank you, tess! It did. I show you all in the next video!
@@homeandgardenwithanna. I'll be looking forward to it
I’ve been doing no dig for years. You gave me a new idea though. Put down good soil on top of the cardboard for the plants that don’t need to be planted as deep. That REALLY will cut down on weeds. Good team work 😊
@sandybartlett7828 I'm so happy I could provide that for you! Any tips you have for me I'd appreciate them as well!
Thanks for sharing. This is new to me . ❤ it .
You're very welcome, Betty!
Your gardens came out so very lovely, thanks for showing how this is done, a nice edging might prevent run off during the heavy rain, nice inspiration my friend.😊😊😊😊
So happy to inspire! Thank you so much!
Beautiful 😊
Thank you!
Looks Amazing! Will use this method… thanks for sharing
You're welcome, Janet! ♥️
Good job 😊
Great video and thank you for very helpful pointers when I do this in the front of my house.
You're very welcome!
I can't wait to see how everything looks once it starts blooming! I need to get a kneeling pad like yours because of terrible arthritis and twisted knees. Thank you for this great video! I had completely given up on dreams of having even a little flower garden this year, but you've given me much hope!
I'm so happy I could do that for you! Love my kneeling pad. The handles are much appreciated haha!
@@homeandgardenwithanna. ❤
Awesome loks great! Happy Planting!!!
Thank you!
Beautiful landscaping ❤
Thank you!
Hey Friend, Happy Friday. I’m always enjoying all of your gardening and outdoors videos, you have such a green thumb that I wish I had. 😢❤ I agree there’s always room for plants and flowers in your garden so it’s better to have more than you think you need than not enough. ❤🥰🦋
I'm an instant gratification type girl, lol! The fuller, the better!
Your lawn is beautiful
Thank you!
It is going to be beautiful
Thank you!
Will love to see when it blooms thank you
