First person ever to give GOOD ideas for where to plant wildflowers so that they really grow! Pots and raised beds..perfect!

Really great ideas! Small scale features, such as forests & meadows will be fun to try. I bought the vacant lot next to my house, which now provides the only open space on the block. I send the investors, realtors, and developers packing. It's my space to experiment with plants and put in natural and repurposed items to create swales, hardscape paths and retaining walls, trellises, etc. I'm limited by drought and heat here in Southern California, but I love to watch birds (hummers!), and butterflies flitting over my huge thicket of hot pink bougainvillea, and the bees buzzing on the citrus trees and 50 year-old ivy that's taken over the fence. I love your place, Bunny! And how exciting that you worked at Highgrove!

Thank you Bunny. I always jump on your posts when they appear. Always, great advice.

I added a pond last year. It has dragonfly visit

Just loved this video, makes perfect sense.🤗👍✅

Excellent content! Thank you Bunny!

Well said! How lovely and relaxing is it to listen Bunny Guinness!

A clover “lawn” works wonderfully, too.

Love your content!!

A mixed native wildlife hedge is also a kind of micro-forest

Thanks for sharing your ideas.

This has to be one my favourite videos ~ so many fantastic ideas, and so colourful. Especially enjoy your creativity with planning the interstitial strips between water and solid ground...catering for insect life & birds. Also, just love all the Spring flowering bulbs in you orchard!

Always great tips and info for the gardener!! Thank you Bunny! 💚

Thank you Bunny for another wonderful video full of helpful advise and tips. We moved last year and have a patch of land opposite which we’ve planted some fruit trees and a small wild flower patch. Waiting to see what will grow!

So many great ideas, Bunny! Great video.

So many great options and we can adopt a few different ones each year.

What a helpful video! Thank you for making it. I listened to it while puttering around my garden. I’d love to find a way to give bees a shallow water source, and figure out I can remind myself to keep it filled. Thank you!

Thank you bunny love watching your videos as I Learn so much from you. Can you do a video about ornamental trees!!!

Gave me a lot to think about and put into practice, just the approach I need for my garden! Thank you 😊

Loved this vlog! So many good ideas and tips! Thank you!

Do you just sprinkle the seeds of wild flowers in the lawn? It would be so interesting to have a video on how you generate a flower meadow. Thank you for this vlog. I really enjoyed watching and got some new info I didnt know about i.e.the microforest

Thank you for the micro tips

Thank you for your advice. I try to encourage wildlife into my garden. At this time of the year I don’t have a camomile lawn but a celandine lawn. It attracts a huge amount of early pollinators and when it’s finished it’s season, it’s dies back into the ground. The lawn doesn’t seem to have been too affected by it at all. Does celandine have nitrogen nodules like beans?

Thank you

👌👌

Bunny, I notice you have a great deal of boxwood. I have 12 acres but am zone 3b. Do you have any suggestions for a reasonable substitution ? It wouldn't have to be evergreen as the snow gets so deep.

Bunny, where can we buy this wildflower seed mix please?

Bit of a contradiction to the video you done praising round up.

I killed off the existing perennial ivy and comfrey with glyphosate but stressed that and ivy seeds or comfrey seeds present in the soil would still germinate so I would have to be vigilant and pull these out when they germinated. Glyphosate is a systemic herbicide it is not residual in the soil so can have no affect on weed seeds already in the soil. Sorry if this was not clear.🐇

@@bunnyguinness I meant it's not good for the environment. Traces of it is found in our water now and links to cancer 🦊

Micro forests - for real? We have always given our plants space, pruned them so the air gets to them, and now we're being told trees grow faster if you pack them in close. Perhaps shortening their lifespan.

Brilliant to listen to but my goodness, please tie your hair out of your eyes.
