Looking great Linda!!
Gaura has a "floaty" characteristic.
Love the shirt!
Linda, in regards to limbing up the Ann Magnolia, I have 4 of them and they look amazing when you limb them up. Their branches spread out and look amazing. Can't wait to see how the social patio falls into place.
Your plans sound amazing! I love the autumnal corner idea in particular. Can’t wait til the next phase.
Wow your garden is looking so good. Can't believe how it changes from each video. I love the idea of keeping the grass in the front as it will add a touch of softness. Your energy inspires me so much!
The shades of green in your garden are a vision. I love them and they are ever inspiring. ❤
Happy to hear you are keeping the grass.
Hi Linda, I just discovered your channel recently, and I’m going back to see you older videos, but I’m also very interested in your new garden, since I just moved in to a brand new house last summer and I’m going through the same process as you with a brand new garden. It seems that we have a very similar style and situation with the new lot. Mine is clay and I’m working very hard to amend it and create a healthy environment for my family and my dog. I’m creating a pollinator friendly garden and don’t want to use any pesticides or chemicals.
I am very impatient to see my garden grow and fill in, just like you…and I think I’ll see a lot of progress by this summer.
Anyway, I love what you’re doing and love to see your journey. ….
I just look at all those agapanthas in horror. While they're a beautiful plant, if you ever need to thin them or remove them, they're a horror. Their roots get so big and tangled. Eventually you'll have to thin them and it's a huge job.
Linda, I am not familiar with the plant that you purchased – Joseph’s Coat – & was in love with the colour. Can you please give me some more info on that one? Thx
Love the color blocking of the green Bermuda grass. It provides a space for the eyes to rest. I live in zone 7B and Bermuda is a great source for my area too!!
When the agapanthus die back, what will be in its place to fill the void? More plants coming???
I think you need a nandina forest!
Can you use flowering thyme in Oklahoma? Attractive andless mowing.

Hello Linda. I was about to say Hello my friend, because I feel as though we are friends! I so enjoy your You Tube channel.
So many things to say. All complimentary!
1. I am thrilled for your new home Cottage although I loved the Fairy Tale home on 40th as well.
2. Thrilled for all your adventures in your Cottage front Garden. Wishing you Happiness Upon Joy! So much more. Cause you mesmerize me.
Love You Linda and Stuart Too!
I was watching YouTube today and I was shocked to see the fairy tale house being shown by Sydney Dorman. I thought what are you doing , that’s Linda’s house. Then wait what,? you are changing things?
Is that Linda’s House???. It was crazy. I could not believe there WERE CHANGES COMING? Because the fairy tale house was perfection in my book.
Honey you can see that the personality ( you) is gone from the fairytale house
Thank God there is the cottage. Delightful. Mxx

Go Linda! Awesome! 😘
Everything looks beautiful. I see you put down the Landscape mix and the mulch. Is that the only thing you put down, what about the weeds? Would they grow all over the garden? 💚💛💜👏🏻👏🏻
Where is the link for the tee shirt you are wearing during this video?? Thank you!
Have you considered keeping the grassy hill and turning the flat grass area on the other side of the sidewalk around the trees into a flower bed? Hellstrip gardening? Very appreciated in walkable neighborhoods
Your garden is growing beautifully. We all need ‘villages of pure joy’. Thank you, from Australia. I grow sedums here too and will find some of the Pure Joy variety. I love all your videos and the work you and Stewart do is wonderful.
I think the grass as you enter gives the eye a rest and makes your LV artistic garden pop!! I'm sure it will soon be lush and happy from your tender loving care Linda!
One BIG advantage of leaving the Bermuda grass on the slopes is it will help prevent erosion on the incline. I think it will look great and blend well with the neighbor's yards.
Do you cut the Swiss chard in the pots to encourage more growth?
Good morning Linda, just an idea, what about a few bricks together as stepping stones. They would break up so many larger stones.
Thanks Linda . I love your Video and the way you dress.❤❤❤
Wishing I could absorb your talent through osmosis!! Are you going to replace the square footsteps with flagstone? Personally, I find the concrete is too small and artificial amongst the natural “cottage” environment. I am in love with your house, I especially love the “cottage” mock-thatched roof, beautiful!
The green block of Bermuda grass also creates connectivity with your neighbors😊
Thanks Linda you are great😉
Hi Linda! If you liked ISABEL LOPEZ-QUESADA AT HOME, then you’ll love SACRED SPACES by Carley Summers. It's brand new, gorgeous, has homeowner stories and my very favorite to date!! Loving your new front yard project!! Roberta
Please put up a fence for safety
Can't wait to see what you do with your slope. The perennials are laid out beautifully. I live on a significant hill so all the perimeter gardens around the house and along the driveway are sloped or terraced. Mature elm and black walnut create the woodland. To garden on a slope you need to be quite a gymnast 😅. I've used native grasses, allium, red bud trees, lungwort, polmonium and hosta.
❤everything is coming together! Love your vision!!!
Yes! The grass will make a frame and a place of rest for the eyes!!!!
I’m a person who can never have too many plants, but the grass provides a rest for your eye and allows the rest of your garden to shine. You need to keep the grass to blend in your yard with the neighbors and to keep your yard from looking to cluttered. It turned out so pretty.
