In between your raised beds and outdoor fireplace would be gorgeous

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

O0o00o0o I didn't think of that! Great idea!

@forgiven213 Месяц назад

Definitely the best idea! If not though a vintage glider bench would be amazing too My kids love using ours and it adds seating

@fahria100 2 месяца назад

I just discovered your channel and enjoyed this video very much! I am 62, and began gardening at age 20 following the birth of my first child. I had very little knowledge of growing things, but asked for advice from my mother in law, and my own mom. When my zinnias and cosmos and four o'clock seeds came up and bloomed so beautifully, I was hooked! Today, I have several gardens on our farm. It's my pleasure in this season of life. Just look at all you've accomplished, why, it looks amazing! Remember to spend time with those sweet little kiddos and make good memories with them! They grow up faster than you can blink! I'm excited to share your video with my daughters who like gardening too. Blessings to you and your family!❤

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Aww thanks Connie this comment just made my day! Such a great reminder that gardening is a great hobby you can grow with through the years

@blk123 Месяц назад

You’re doing a great job. Your kids are involved and enjoying the garden. That’s what is important at this stage of your life, making memories with the family. A fireplace in between the raised beds. I love an outdoor fireplace.

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thank you so much! LOVE the fireplace idea I gotta look into that!

So beautiful! I have a narrow rectangular yard. I started off with germanium baskets on shepherd’s canes. I get the wanting to create privacy and coziness from neighbors so it feels like your personal oasis 😌

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

Thank you! And yes that sounds beautiful! Love some hanging baskets 😊

@arielleallaround6844 Месяц назад

The gardening content is so motivating. Thinking about starting a mini vegetable garden of my own. I just have no clue where to start! Your yard looks beautiful. Love all the additions. That tree swing is so cool!

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

Thanks so much! 🙏🏼 girl same! I was like idk where to start so I’m just gonna plant a few things we like to eat lol keep it simple!

@michaylamaseko7995 Месяц назад

Watching this during my mom time and I very much enjoyed how soothing and well put out this all was, the before and after is so beautiful and I love encouraging you sound even though at times tired lol All the best with the kids and rest of the gardening ps my first boy started walking at 16 months and my 2nd at 9 months. They’ll get there eventually ♥️ All my love xx

You're the best! 🥹 thanks for the support!!!

@lianeabeyta4515 Месяц назад

What a wonderful yard!!! So many mature shade trees! Love the privacy fence, but that will take time. I would add some kind of climbing vine at the bottom of the fence to fill in quickly , while the trees mature. The stone structure adds so much interest. I love it! Yes , lots of terra cotta pots , flowers and maybe topiaries in that area would look awesome. I am a sucker for red brick houses, so find yours so charming, as the backdrop to the garden.

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks for all your thoughts! I have been contemplating a climbing vine, but wanted something evergreen and don’t want something invasive like Ivy, so it’s been very difficult to find the right thing. Might end up doing Euonymus plus eventually some climbing flowers would be pretty. I also like the red brick even though so many people are painting their brick white now I thought about it and I feel like I want to stick with red!

@mommyjaslynn Месяц назад

Excited to watch

@Monique.rodriguezJones Месяц назад

Definitely want more gardening videos. Im in upstate NY so I started gardening with flowers first and now im starting growing tomatoes from scratch indoors 😭

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Ooo similar seasons to me! I haven’t dabbled into growing from seeds it intimidates me 😅

@Nonnahs3 Месяц назад

In a Chicago apartment myself and wow you have so much great space for veggies!!! You’ve done so much with one year. Love this content and happy to see more 😊

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks so much!!

@ssophielouisee Месяц назад

Well done! You could put something like shade cloth on the fence for privacy. A custom made seat/day bed infront of the water feature wall, just a thought

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Great thoughts appreciate the ideas!

@chrislewis6574 Месяц назад

Adorable yard that’s coming along perfectly!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks 👍

@HannahFisher-mi6gi Месяц назад

Ok this was really encouraging to watch and hear! We have struggled with our yard so much, but I’m feeling more motivated to fix it up.

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Awesome so happy to hear that!!

@zurylavaire2069 Месяц назад

I think a pond or a small garden waterfall between your raised beds will look cute too!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Yeah, so it must’ve been a waterfall before because we found some of the piping, but it’s all broken now. Would absolutely love to try to get some sort of water feature there at some point if I could figure out how to fix it!

@shinewithsheryl6056 Месяц назад

I love all that you’ve done and am very impressed. You’re adorable and so is your family. Best wishes!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thank you so much!!

@lurgeegirl 2 месяца назад

You've done so much in one year!! It looks awesome. I too had to learn to be patient with my gardening. It's hard but the payoff is worth it

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

Thanks for that!! And yes you’re 100% right!!

@GoingGreenMom Месяц назад

The autumn crocus are a wish list item for me since they produce saffron. Good to know the foliage comes in spring.

@Nicolelelagreen 15 дней назад

Oh that’s fun! My sis grows them! Such a cool plant!

@user-un9dd5sv2y 2 месяца назад

They do make grass that grows in the shade they also have a grass that will grow on rock, check it out

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

Yes we use shade seed for sure, still a struggle haha!

@lmt6672 2 месяца назад

Love what you did!

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much!!

@user-ew3sx7cp6c Месяц назад

Just an idea, you can trim some of those branches from your maple tree to allow more sunlight into your yard!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Absolutely had this in mind as well, just trying to decide exactly where I want more sun to come through!

@almangarcia7500 Месяц назад

I love it

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thank you! 🙏🏼

@Rachel12867 Месяц назад

I live in the Chicago suburbs too! Thankfully we got no Cicadas but I heard closer to the city was bad, I’m pretty far west. I love what you’ve done with the yard! Our kids are also the same age and it’s been a challenge, especially with my 1 year old. Nap times are really the only time I get to garden and it’s usually already hot by then. Love that tree swing and hammock! And your garden is coming in great!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks so much! Glad to hear you didn’t have to deal with cicadas hehe 🙃 and yes def hard to find time with kids our age! Love to hear you’re still doing it anyway!

@Sarah-yq2mj Месяц назад

It's looking good in your yard. It's going to be so nice when you get all your plants and landscaping done. Your yard is big and shady with lots of potential.

@Nicolelelagreen 2 месяца назад

I hope so too! Thanks for the encouragement 🙌🏽

It all looks amazing ! You’re doing such an amazing job 🎉🎉🎉 inspiring me to give gardening a try, it’s just so scary 😂

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

You can do it! Honestly if I can anyone can haha

@forgiven213 Месяц назад

Use Easihold to spray over your pebbles and keep them in place

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

We actually tried the mulch glue but only one layer… so wasn’t successful. May have to try two layers next time t time

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Haha thank you! 😊

@viovsa Месяц назад

Just finished the video and it looks amazing 😍😍😍 you’re inspiring me to pick back up on my gardening. My backyard has not as much shade as yours and I like to keep my water bill low so it’s tough for me, but I also want an oasis in my backyard. I want to build a swingset like the one your brother built. Did he follow a tutorial you can link, pretty please? You also gave me an idea for a tree in my front yard that has many bare roots and I’ve been toying with the idea of a bird bath so my girly and I can birdwatch, especially since I found a dead bird on my front lawn this morning 😭😭😭 I’m sure it died due to the heat. Anyways, great job, Nicole! Your backyard looks amazinggggg

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks so much! I don’t have the plan for the swingset 🤷🏻‍♀️ but love the idea of birdbath in front window! So entertaining for the kiddos! Also found a dead bird in my yard before …. Yikes lol

@hannahdrone8585 Месяц назад

Girl! I know the pain of having a 1 year old that doesn’t walk! None of my three children have walked by 1… it is rough!

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Haha it’s painful to the armssss

@viovsa Месяц назад

You do not want to cover your A/C unit, girl. It needs the space to properly ventilate. It’s not even an eyesore, tbh, just keep it clean and have it maintenanced regularly. That part of your yard looks spectacular so far. :)

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Thanks for the tips! I definitely don’t plan on putting anything over it, I know that that’s not OK, But I have seen some coverage that people build using wood to essentially go around the sides 😊

@viovsa Месяц назад

@@NicolelelagreenI’ve seen those. Maybe ask an A/C tech for advice? They may have a better idea so as to prevent your unit from any overheating damage in any case. :)

@coyalorraine1446 Месяц назад

Yard looks great! Can you paint the sewage cover?

@Nicolelelagreen Месяц назад

Hmm haven’t thought of that! I’ll have to look into it thanks for the idea!
