Marvelously yummy ideas for the eyes. Here in the U.S., Midwest zone 5b many grass lawns are giving way to native prairies, herbaceous boarders and pollinator gardens. The idea of blending sitting areas into the herbaceous borders or off a messy natural path can be applied to our Openlands movement. Thank you; best gardening video I've seen in months!

Absolutely loved this post! Thank you so much for sharing🙏 Wonderful inspiration and advise. Whole hardly recommend pairing flowers and herbs amongst the veg. Not only attracts more pollinators and perfume the air, also helps control the predatory insect population as well. I often will plant a wide variety of herbs amongst my flower beds and let them go to flower to blend in, such glorious scents in each section! My most favourite areas are my mint patches(assorted pots filled with various varieties of mint). I position them in the corners of my raised beds, absolutely delicious aroma! The Strawberry Mint(my most favourite) smells just like strawberry candy, it flowers well into the Fall and the bees and butterflies are always all over it. Makes a delicious simple syrup infusion, particularly in lemonade... YUM!

Thanks for ‘taking us’ to Hampton Court Flower Show, Alexandra. I’ve never been to that one -usually do RHS Tatton & RHS Chatsworth. Was particularly pleased about the lawn-free gardens, as we’re moving to a new-build in October with a garden half the size (or less) as my current one, and was agonising about not having space for all the plants I love. Solution: forget about a lawn altogether! X
@coolwater55
@coolwater55 3 года назад
I love less lawn, but still need enough for the grandchildren to play! Also, clover in the lawn brings pollinators… plus when sitting on the lawn with my grandchildren.. the lawn is teaming with all sorts of bugs. Then the birds enjoy them!

You brought home all the beautiful moments of the show, thank you. 🙏🏼🌸🌼🌸 I am a beginner and this year I had started growing broccoli with kale in my beds together with cosmos, gazanias and other flowering perennials, I also interspersed some herbs and they all look pretty to me, nature is so beautiful and I stopped moving lawns as I have now begun to look out for the sounds of humming insects, it is a joy to garden, I am learning the joys of gardening, thank you for another wonderful and informative video. 🌺🌹🌺

I really enjoyed this Alexandra, a common sensical unshowy approach to making beautiful gardens. So glad that it’s now deemed “ acceptable “ to do away with a lawn. See? I was right all along! ( Although starlings like them) I have noticed a big drop in bee numbers this year, which I have put down to the cold start to summer and rain, but am going to keep planting flowering shrubs in any space I can find, and keep my fingers crossed. The list of plants in the video will be invaluable.

I adore a good lawn and am willing to put the work in just to look at that sea of green and feel instantly calm. Lying down on a lawn, or even just grounding to mother earth by sitting with bare feet and hands is so beneficial for our health. I am just about finished landscaping my garden, and I have left an area of lawn that I will allow to grow wild, because this will in effect be a bunny room for my indoor free-roaming bunnies, somewhere they can come out to for some fresh air, a good run and a nibble on dandelions etc.

Amazing gardens! Lovely! I find that I never like any one thing for very long. So in my garden I have "sections" where for instance in the back I have a very colorful herbaceous border that is informal and cottage garden style and in the front I have the very strict formal borders where everything is very "stiff" and "placed." My shade garden goes back into that "woodland" look and is informal but then the other is very designed and placed. That way I never get too tired of one or the other haha. Although I admit it looks a bit odd as a whole sometimes :D

My husband looked out at our back garden one day and asked, "Didn't we use to have grass?" Indeed there had been grass, but I had created beds for small trees and roses, some herbs and vegetables,, plus a center patch of pine bark chips for 2 chaises. In the front,, I had also started to build beds for camellias, daylilies, plumbago, daffodils, agapanthus, and hydrangeas, with large beds of ground cover under the trees. My husband didn't say anything, but I could tell he was catching on. Since he refused to do yard work, he couldn't complain. In fact he liked the new garden. I even gave my cousin a book called "Requiem for a Lawnmover." My campaign against grass had begun. Now in Austin, Texas, I have no grass. I do have flowers and passersby who tell me how much they love the garden I created. The bees and butterflies are happy too.

New subscriber! I’m binge watching your videos and loving them ❤️ I’ve moved house and got a medium sized garden (1/4 acre) and I haven’t looked after a garden before so need lots of tips! At the moment it’s very badly maintained lawn. 😱

That's certainly an exciting project - good luck and don't worry if things go wrong, because they often do, then the garden does something unexpectedly lovely in compensation.

Thank you, lovely video. I’d really appreciate a video on garden focal points for small spaces- I love your topiary with the lavender around it, but I only have a narrow corridor of a garden and at the moment it’s quite hard to stop the eye wander to the garden fence at the end of the garden. Thank you!

That's a very good idea, and I will definitely think about how to do it, thank you.

Interesting question. A friend of mine with a no-lawn garden has a pull-out airer attached to the side of the house. She pulls it out to hang clothes on it, then it folds back in again when she's finished.
