Long live the King. Long may he reign.

King Charles has done something good here in his garden. I am glad he loves nature and gardeniing

I’m so excited to see a new age in Great Britain with King Charles. A man who loves nature and gardens says a lot. Let’s hope he can be bold and usher in greater environmental awareness in the world. We need stronger leadership with a sensitive soul. He seems like a good person and better than most.

God bless you LAnn .Gardens are passion and our King is that in heaps

A master class on gardening possibilities. But what I love most is how the King’s sense of humor shines through. Bravo.

So interesting. Love the bee hives.

Thank you for your tribute to Highgrove and King Charles at home.

This is a lovely video. I really appreciate how you have name checked so many of the people involved in working and designing Highgrove .

Oh Bunny what a simply stunning video. Both yours and King Charles gardens are stunningly beautiful, inspirational and perfectly dreamy 💚💚💚

Vision, passion, and budget make this garden one of its kind.

Your knowledge about this garden is so extensive, that it really helps to understand how to let one's gardens develop with time, giving plans time to develop. Thank you!!!

I’ve always thought it great he had something to call his. It’s a beautiful place.

I've always loved Highgrove. I love the natural way KC has developed it. Wild meadow? Who wouldn't love that? I could totally live in that garden. What a sweet treat it would be to have that kind of space and money to indulge in your passion. I'm glad he has it open to the public at times.

Cows are so interesting they love to gather around when you’re talking 🐮

I live near a road that has gotten much noisier over the years and have been racking my brain for ideas on how to tone it down. I'm working on a privacy fence and was going to add a lot of birdhouses to the posts. Now I know that other than for beauty and bug control, attracting more birds will help with the noise control as well. Thank you!

@@bunnyguinness I've talked to a couple of fencing companies. I already have a 4' picket fence that used to have lattice on top (making it 6' at one time). The plan is to push up the 4' pickets to the 6' level and butt them up to each other so no spaces. Then the bottom will be filled in with one horizontal board then vertical boards to fill in (most lumber is NOT identical in width - it can be up to a 1/4" different, so the horizontal board will hide the differences in boards hopefully). Once that is complete, I'm going to use caulk at each seam. I've planted various evergreen shrubs along that fence already and they're starting to get some height and width on them. Now I'll add birdhouses. 😁 As I sit here typing this, it is just shy of 7am (US EDT), I have my doors open to let in some cool air and I'm listening to the birds as much as I can over the road noise. Just have to focus, lol.

What a beautiful video! And a lovely tribute to an amazing garden and gardener. Thank you ❤❤

It's always a pleasure to watch your videos Bunny. So much great information & advice. By the way your garden looks amazing

One of the best witnesses for Charles is his garden. That won me over, when I've always kind of hated how he treated Diana. But a guy who cares about the environment, and gardening like he does has a lot going for him too. I love birds, and without bees we'll all starve. I love to garden, and grow things, and I love what I've seen of High Grove. The stumpery is one of the coolest things ever! I'm pulling for him, I hope he does a good job.

This was quite a treat! I have a book by Roy Strong, that I bought many years ago. I love the sound of birdsong (though not the squabbling of the wild parrots we get here in San Diego). I believe the world is fortunate that King Charles feels so strongly about the environment. I always enjoy hearing you talk about Highgrove. Congratulations to His Majesty on his Coronation!

So many useful tips and information in this video, for which I thank you Bunny. I particularly like that birdsong is the best way to drown out road noise. The Highgrove garden looks a joy and I’m now busily investigating how to visit. Have a wonderful Coronation Day everyone🇬🇧🎉

Regards,to your house green fingers,god bless our king, 👑 love your progress, fantastic unit,, keep it out standing,lol

I saw a video of this garden and I was particularly intrigued with the stumpery.

This is very timely because I have a ticket to tour Highgrove later this summer and now I’m super excited! I think you’re right about translating the feel of a garden whatever it’s size. Even just replacing fencing with hedges and tarmac with gravel (full of self-seeded violets, aquilegia, primroses) has encouraged the birds to nest in profusion.

Thanks for the details that made K Charles so human. Unfortunately, the press pictures and acknowledgments of his interest in the environment made him seem stuffy. Look what being the crown prince and having a long view of his time in that role created such beauty and inspiration for so many people today. I love how you realistically mentioned that people with small plots could take cues from the projects at Highgrove.

A very enjoyable episode. Love your garden too and have gleaned a few ideas for mine.

Love your videos. So informative and explained in such a wonderful way. I have learned a lot from you, especially the bottomless pots idea from a former video of yours. Thank you.

Lovely gardens. Formality with a natural feel us not easy to achieve. We have no topiary or box in our gardens but many features like the walls and meadows are very similar. Thank you for the tour.

Great video, so useful and stimulating, I enjoyed the balance of what you and the King agreed and disagreed on , healthy and valuable . Thank you Bunny

One of your best videos Bunny! ~ absolutely loved the parallel tour of your stunningly beautiful garden too. Funny you mention birdsong drowning out traffic noise. When a child, we lived near Battersea Park, and sometimes we'd have tea at the Boating Lake cafeteria. One of my enduring memories is sitting there in the tree-dappled light in the Summer, and hearing excited flocks of sparrows indulging in what I can only call voluminous chattering in the protective tree canopies, creating wonderful joyous waves of sound!

A wonderful garden, I just wish I had all those gardeners, the lovely walled garden, the chicken house. I have my shack and 4 acres so I wouldn't need Highgrove!

Your videos keep getting better and better - much more punchy and to the point than some other well known brands of gardening program. Thank you. Nb. The serpentine path area (in your own garden) looks better than I expected - I thought the space was too narrow and shaded. Seems I was wrong - probably.

It’s Cammassia quamash, a bulb, plant it in autumn. It’s not expensive and prefers damper soils though at Highgrove it does pretty well as you can see and that’s a free draining soil. In my garden I have it in the meadow and in borders, but because we are in a much drier part of the country and have free draining soil it does not increase in numbers so I will replant every few years to keep the population going. 🐇

@@bunnyguinness Hi Bunny, thanks for sharing this. I've always enjoyed programs on the Queens Canopy, The King's efforts in Highgrove, in restoring properties and Poundberry. What would be fantastic if it's possible is to expand the late Queen's Canopy Project to Australia. As the King is fond of Mediterranean Gardens as well which would suit our climate, perhaps even Morcoccan styles as we have desertification, could you look into a program sponsored by The King that comes to Australia, perhaps you and Monty Don and teach Australians how to retrofit out gardens for the heat to come? We do try, but the Brits do courtyards really well as do Middle-East regions. I found Monty's programs in Iran, Turkey, Greece, Italy, France, So as in beguiling but need help to transpose that in my neighbourhood. But if that gets our concrete jungles much cooler, I think the King or Prince of Wales might open such programs on future tours to Australia in coming years. It would be a nice project.

If Charles can do one huge thing during his reign, it would be to rewild his land: put a dead stop to game shooting, let his trees grow up, take off the sheep. Build bioversity, store carbon, stop killing things. Donate a quarter of the current royal green lands as wild lands in perpetuity - by law, so they cannot be touched down the centuries. It would be a total game changer for the whole of the UK. Artistos would follow. Maybe you can encourage him, Bunny, to go wild - for rocketing biodiveristy, tree cover, water health, soil health, bird life. Win-win-win all round. He is the only one who can lead these changes.
