Bungalow Garden Tour – Amazing Gulf Coast Tropical Landscape – In this video I tour a garden in Fairhope, Alabama. It is a really nice space with a very private tropical backyard garden. The landscape looks great, although the owner said that it had been hard to find help to get a few things done this spring.

Hey Jim! Love the tours. I hope you do some full-sun garden tours as I'm cursed with a house without any shade.
Jim, love love love the landscapes that you find! Do you use a gimble on your camera? Might help your videos be a little less shaky!
Jim, i wish you would travel back to NC by way of Orlando to give me ideas for creating a garden in the back of my house.
What a lush and intimate backyard for a meal or coffee, that Mondo Grass really adds a nice touch to soften the brick walkway.
Lovely tour Jim! It always amaze me how you know the names of each plant 🌱
At 13:01–13:02, there is a heart shaped vine on the white post – looks like a potato vine I once had and can no longer find. (It grows round “potatoes” bulbs along the vine.). Can you identify the vine in this video? Thanks!
I love these tours! I nearly have a blank slate I'm trying to work with. Thank you!
Beautiful landscaping. Love that they utilized the palms to encourage privacy and shade. Hope you get more south
Tropical Oasis. With just a little trimming, the items needing light could flourish as well. Beautiful gardens. Tfs. 👏🏻👏🏻💕
This is so beautiful and serene, gives me so many ideas for our permaculture garden here in South West Florida.
I love walking through other people's gardens. Thank you for taking us along.
Those ginger plants are really gorgeous.
Just like you!
👋😄
Loved this tour! Fairhope is a town I would love to visit. What can I use to kill liriope spicata that has come up in my driveway (no way to dig it up). I tried Roundup, and it just laughed and kept spreading!
This is a gorgeous landscape. I just love the variegated ginger. I’ll have to learn more about that one. What was the large grassy plant down by the street in front of the blueberry? and the brick work is amazing. Are the stepping stone framed with something to keep it all together?
Thank you for the tour! I particularly like the distinctly Southern take on Piet Oudolf's naturalistic design, embracing the plants that are native and truly thrive in the region. And, the modern take on the old brick path that truly grounds the space in the deep South. Bravo!
Amazing space. Truly enjoy your videos.
So cool and lush. Got some great ideas for some of my shadier spots.
😍 So beautiful!
My #1 favorite garden tour of all time!
How hardy is that variegated ginger?
Nice tour and treat to see this wonderful place, love tropical plants and flowers, live in zone 5b. Thank you for sharing!
Looks like a nice/ relaxing garden. 🤓☕📖🌳🌳🌲🌲🌿⛲🍀🌼💮🏵️🌾🌹🌹🌸🌸💮
I love seeing other gardens and really like the way you tell us the names and growing habits of the plants. Extra professional is the way you emphasize the names at the bottom of the screen with the white box and great font. Thumbs up Jim! Thank you!!
What is the music ? Enjoyed the tour !
Beautiful enjoyed see this beautiful garden
Lovely landscape. Providing plant names and identification is most helpful.
Those are not windmill palms in front yard, Med Fan Palm.
That was a very beautiful garden. Very achieve able by the average home gardener.
So THAT"S what heaven looks like! I'm starting over with a blank slate when we move into our next home. This gives me so many wonderful ideas. Thanks!
Awesome subtropical garden; they need some fruiting bananas in their garden. Sounds like that Liriope spicata is tough enough to walk on down there? Those palms out front look more like Mediterranean Fan Palms. (Chamaerops humilis) Just amazing the size of plants down there! Do those gingers smell good?
Why does lichen grow on my trees? Even the younger ones. I live about 100 miles northeast of Pensacola.
Thank you, Jim. I have relatives living there.
I'm a huge fan of "no turf" landscapes! I love agapanthus and I just managed to find one that is allegedly hardy in my zone (5) called "Blue Yonder". Looking forward to planting it and seeing if it will return and bloom. The eternal optimism of the gardener!
I really enjoy all your videos.
wow that is really packed. i wrote down quite a few names for my future dream garden, thanks for sharing.
Beautiful!
You had me at the screened-in front porch! One of my favorite HGTV shows is set in Laurel, Mississippi, and almost all their renos do away with the screened porches. IT DRIVES ME NUTS, but then, I'm not the one paying for it. 😉
Love a lot of these plants. I don’t like things too cramped together but what a beautiful bungalow.
Those aren’t windmills in the front… Mediterranean Fan I believe.
What is confederate?
Very nice !
I love cleome! Every year I save seeds and have them growing everywhere. 🙂
Jim, you are doing a wonderful job! Thank you for your channel!
Brilliant 🙂
I live near this! Great video!!
Love this one!
