    Looks like sh1t tbh

    An English style garden 🤣 a semi cottage style planting scheme with a formal, reneaissance’esk design is certainly not English. You’ve literally just combined two different garden style elements and named it "English"

  4. Gilda Castillo on July 22, 2023 at 5:44 pm

    That was awesome!!!

  5. Sebastien H on July 22, 2023 at 5:45 pm

    Ugliest, most artificial garden I ever seen! Ah ah

  6. Roots on July 22, 2023 at 5:46 pm

    Beautiful…please make a video on how then garden…..

  7. M Allen on July 22, 2023 at 5:47 pm

    Never plant foxglove near your herbs. That’s asking for trouble. Also this isn’t an English garden

  8. Jacob Addison on July 22, 2023 at 5:47 pm

    Jeez this is a lot of work lol

  9. Angel Waitzel on July 22, 2023 at 5:48 pm

    Albahaca y romero (comestibles) con digitalis, espero que ningún chico se le ocurra comer las plantas

    I’m not sure how 811 utility finder works in all places, but be aware that in some areas they only locate utilities to your property line from the street. They may not come onto your property which is where you need the information if you are building a project! I live in Kennewick, WA and the utilities companies would only mark the utilities up to my property line. My project was inside my property quite a ways as my house is at the back of a one acre lot! So 811 was basically useless for me! They told me that I would have to hire a private company to come and locate within my property line!! I was on a tight budget and couldn’t afford the private company fees so I ended up just winging it and just digging VERY, VERY carefully!

  11. kris h on July 22, 2023 at 5:48 pm

    You forget to tell them the total cost lol 😂

  12. cdle007 on July 22, 2023 at 5:50 pm

    Waste of time calling 811.

  13. Jade Martin on July 22, 2023 at 5:50 pm

    How much would it all cost to hire a professional with materials included?

  14. Hannah Arevalo on July 22, 2023 at 5:52 pm

    Beautiful
    Just not cheap to do

  15. NANGRAM MEKUM on July 22, 2023 at 5:52 pm

    That’s a lot of information 👍

  16. Clinton W Dsouza on July 22, 2023 at 5:53 pm

    How much was area

  17. New Horizons Life Coaching on July 22, 2023 at 5:54 pm

    Actually, if you look into the history of well manicured gardens (1500’s-1600’s) it was the Italians who initially started this style of garden that today they get no credit for. The French was in to copy the style and make it popular and then the English. The only reason Americans believe this style is English is because of our association up to the civil war. However, historically the Italians are the creators of this style of garden.

  18. NetRunner on July 22, 2023 at 5:54 pm

    For a second i thought he was going to work with a nerf gun x)

  19. FireIce2009 on July 22, 2023 at 5:55 pm

    Oh my god,so beautiful garden😭😭👍

  20. James Solivio on July 22, 2023 at 5:59 pm

    Nice

  21. Liz Elmlinger on July 22, 2023 at 6:01 pm

    I’m American living in England. This is more an italian or some other formal garden (which can also be found in grander English Manor Houses). This isn’t near loose enough for an english garden.

  22. The Watcher on July 22, 2023 at 6:01 pm

    Thank you.

  23. Rizo & Cars on July 22, 2023 at 6:05 pm

    How to make a garden… Proceed to use thousands of dollars in equipment, pointless video

  24. thelostgirl101 on July 22, 2023 at 6:06 pm

    Looks very nice! 🙂

  25. chris d on July 22, 2023 at 6:08 pm

    Cost? Guessing a grand or 2

  26. Benjamin Harris on July 22, 2023 at 6:09 pm

    sounds like an American garden

  27. Droning on uk on July 22, 2023 at 6:10 pm

    As an Englishman I can confirm I’ve never seen a garden like that in the uk

  28. Tinyhawk Forde on July 22, 2023 at 6:10 pm

    This is French minus all those bricks…it should be European ewe/ boxwood hedges and walkways are pea gravel.
    Obviously this means more money for Lowes to do it this way using a HELL of ALOT more materials but the title is misleading AF

  29. Sassy on July 22, 2023 at 6:10 pm

    Never suggest Ivy. It’s incredibly invasive.

  30. Americana Gardens on July 22, 2023 at 6:11 pm

    Neverever use landscape fabric!

  31. jlan generic drug Distributor on July 22, 2023 at 6:12 pm

    wow so beautiful

  32. Vlad on July 22, 2023 at 6:12 pm

    Watching this seems impossible for me since I live near the Amazon

  33. Love always Jasmine on July 22, 2023 at 6:15 pm

    Could I do this for a vegetable garden

  34. P. Stephen on July 22, 2023 at 6:16 pm

    I can’t with this guy’s intonations 😅

  35. Carol Young on July 22, 2023 at 6:18 pm

    With the inflation going wild, this garden can very well carry a price tag of $20,000 plus.

    And, ask any real English man if that’s a typical English garden. I think NOT.

    English garden is essentially going with the flow, no rule no forms.

  36. jonathan allen on July 22, 2023 at 6:20 pm

    Should have burry first course block

  37. Jeff on July 22, 2023 at 6:20 pm

    NO

  38. JerseyGirl Homestead on July 22, 2023 at 6:21 pm

    Building a tiny home in backyard

  39. Jacob Baldwin on July 22, 2023 at 6:22 pm

    Anybody actually priced this out recently?

    There’s roughly $1000 worth of bagged soil there alone.

    A $20,000 garden?

    That’s cool.

  40. Wysteria on July 22, 2023 at 6:22 pm

    I know a lot of people don’t like it, but mint actually makes a very good filler, as long as you keep it controlled, though it will die during winter, so be prepared to have a clean bed or have something else ready during that time

  41. Nelson Chak on July 22, 2023 at 6:25 pm

    was soll dieser aal

  42. Rabid Hellhound on July 22, 2023 at 6:28 pm

    Are you saying "paper base" or "paver base?" I can’t figure out which. Needs a bit more articulation.

  43. Lowe's Home Improvement on July 22, 2023 at 6:28 pm

    We went all out on this build & the materials we used are in the description for those that are up for the challenge 💪 But if you’re looking for a way to scale this idea down a bit, consider using a raised bed kit ( https://low.es/2WuB5ut ) or building your raised beds out of lumber: https://youtu.be/xC_Wa7OvuIg

  44. Pleasant Prickles on July 22, 2023 at 6:28 pm

    Just wow! Love it!!!🌿🌿🌿🌼🌸🌺🌹🌿🌿🌿

  45. ST H on July 22, 2023 at 6:31 pm

    I’m English and there is nothing English about this.

  46. 28peruvian on July 22, 2023 at 6:31 pm

    Never seen a fence in English gardens; but rather hedges…perhaps boxwood would have been more appropriate.

  47. Sean O'brian on July 22, 2023 at 6:32 pm

    how many pavers were used to build this. i sure would like to make this at my vacation house.

  48. Rachel Morstet on July 22, 2023 at 6:33 pm

    Beautiful

  49. David Clark on July 22, 2023 at 6:35 pm

    Dude, stop singing every sentence. It’s obnoxious.

  50. Jeanette Pappas on July 22, 2023 at 6:37 pm
