  • Just WOW🤩
    Jennifer reached out to me last month with a request for a xeriscape installation in her front yard.
    She’s local in La Mesa so I suggested a personal consultation to discuss the project.
    She humbly suggested that I scout her back yard for suitable specimens to designate for the new xeriscape.
    I assumed that I’d be rummaging through some neglected plants in original nursery pots and BOY OH BOY was I in for a surprise!
    Join me as I share with you what lies behind the gate AND share a preview of the upcoming project.

    I love when you talk about wanting us to create a special space for ourselves. My favorite quotation of yours comes from one of your gardening with you during lockdown.
    “I want you to create a space of your own that is your happy place, a place where you would rather be than any place else because that is the definition of a rich life.” …Yes, your fans really do listen to you.

    I have been taking walks in my neighborhood for years and have noticed this amazing house that recently got a new front yard design. I have been enjoying the beauty of that front yard ever since it was installed. In noticing the front yard, I became aware that what I could see of the backyard looked magical! A week or so ago I was out walking and saw the owner in the front yard. I boldly walked up to her and told her how much I LOVE her yard, how much I appreciate all the work she does to make her yard beautiful and that it adds so much joy to my walks and the neighborhood! The owner - Jennifer of course! She was out for a quick plant relocation while on lunch break from her job! But I was just so enthusiastic and vocal about her yard and how I have really wanted to see that back that she graciously invited me to see her back yard - it has gotten even more gorgeous since Laura did this video sharing Jennifer's back yard with you! Jennifer has been SO wonderful. She told me all about Laura's work and I have been watching Laura's videos nonstop since then. Laura - I SO appreciate you filming Jennifer's back yard and telling us that we can do this! That Jennifer is a phenomenal inspiration and example to us all that this is indeed possible for us non-magical folks! Well, truth is, the message is that we are ALL magical with this if we are willing to wade in. Having been inspired by Jennifer, this video and all the amazing videos and help YOU have shared with us, Laura, I actually went out into my own backyard and started pulling out old succulents and PLAYING. I'm going to keep watching you videos and check out some of the nurseries that Jennifer and you recommended. I think I may be starting a renewed love affair with succulents, my own back yard, my connected- alive BODY and nature itself! Thank you SO much to Jennifer and Laura! You both inspire me tremendously! SO MUCH BEAUTY AND CREATIVE PLAY! Yay!

    For gopher control that I always used when I lived in El Cajon, over-excavate the planting pit to 3x the rootball diameter (but keep the depth equal to the rootball). Add a layer of cut glass (clean broken bottles and jars works great) about 3" thick to the bottom, and slightly up the sides, and then a layer of filter fabric. Set and orient the tree, then backfill in lifts with a good-quality compost amended soil with fertilizer tablets. Make a watering basin with extra backfill and then thoroughly saturate the soil, and monitor that it drains. 100% guarantee gopher-proof.

      @jenlamesa7353 2 года назад

      Funny, we originally intended on using the Palo Verde shown at the end of the video in the backyard but ultimately decided the front would be better! It might be tough to tell from the video, but the neighbors across the alley are above us since the slope continues. So, the Yuccas will eventually provide a bit more privacy than the Palo Verde would. (FYI - the cactus is an Eve's Needle and they grow very fast so if you have the space go for it :-)
