Interesting idea - to focus on sun-loving flowers. However, like many such videos, it was merely a listing rather providing any useful advice or interesting description.

Re flowering plants, key topics for discussion are as follows: design themes; seasonal developments; temperature tolerance; s...

I really have to say this lady is stating the obvious and I just don't see the point of this vid.

Marigold seeds by theway are best planted in slightly acidic soil.

Interesting vid. Could have been more scientific details about soil, protection plants, and temps.

I would not call that pathetic pile of stones 'rock landscaping.' This vid is a waste of my time, and anyone's time. I might sue this guy, bill him for my time.

The lawn is a mess, too. What is this guy playing at?!

I must comment that this vid is rather below par and that no real advise was offered.

Anyhoo - the most important factor about spring planting is to schedule your planting to take into account the average frosting dates for your location. The next priority (unless working to a set design) is to ...

Nice vid. Me I would say not enough advise on the importance of texture.

Great video. I would recommend Tassel Bush if you are planning to landscape a garden or a park in this kind of area. It gives protection and shade and it adds wonderful texture. You gotta have texture. To get effective texture pick a theme that is both functional and attractive.

Some interesting points here. I will tell you though about forests you have to think of the fauna aspect at the very start and have a concept of balance. Forests degenerate without the balancing effects of fauna. For instance you gotta think of the insect species, promote those you want and de...

You wanna know how to get a good lawn then ask my wife. She is the expert. Anyhoo her main advise is to completely re-soil at the very start. Any other way you are in a constant struggle. You just gotta get the soil right. Don't even bother with a soil test. The science of that is not too re...

Me and the wife visited this park. Well I'll tell you we were kinda disappointed. No offence but it was pretty run down and this video gives a false idea of the landscaping quality.

I have built dozens of these things. Sorry do not mean to boast! Anyhoo, they are kinda fun for a while; but they go to hell pretty soon. For a proper water feature you need to really go for it, spend some money and get some expertise. Get something solid that will last thirty years. It's the ...

Personally I have always thought that texture is the key to any design. Without well conceived texture any landscape design seems kinda sterile, even if other criteria are met.

Great video. All the key ideas here. Nicely presented.

Some nice shots of flora. Could have been longer! Anyhoo, if anyone is interesting in protecting flora from low temperatures, I would recommend the Henderson approach, a little known but effective set of balanced horticultural stategies. (My father actually knows Henderson.)

@HDFATBOY55 What on earth are you talking about? 'Fat Head' would be a better name for you.

I am anti-Muslim. I was warning you Americans not to let them plant any more mosques in your country. Can't you bloody read? Too many big words for you?

'Whore'? Yeah, like you have never paid for i...

@abbienetvision You're right about your Muslim president. That guy is pure taqiyya. America must have gone blind not to see right through that obvious act, that presumptuous Jack Kennedy impersonation. Also, the guy was born in Kenya; grew up in Indonisia, a place about as Islamic as you can g...

@ArtsAlign You are kidding, right?

@linguafranca123 On public record - as far as I know - no Muslim has ever specifically condemned a specific terrorist act committed against Infidel.

Yes, there are many taqiyyaistic generalisations: e.g. 'I condemn any attack against innocent people.' However, Islam says that all non-believers ...

@flyingdingo1 Correct. Especially re the brainwashing. Every chance they get, the media poodles say: "Of course, 99.99% of all Muslims are really really peaceful and they contribute to the community and are hardworking." This is a standard PR line that has been established by Saudi-hired Americ...

Hey, Pink Lady, you do not need to worry about being modest. Trust me. We are looking maybe at that explosive pink; but otherwise you are not under scrutiny. Cos we got a babe-alert to your right.

Oh, yeah - and God save us from converts. They are the most dangerous.

Plus, she is lying abo...
