Hi George, just wanted to say how brilliant i think you're gardening is. I've been wildlife gardening for a few years and i regularly check on You Tube for wildlife garden videos but until very recently none of your videos have appeared in my searches. Having found your channel, and having watched every single video, i can tell you that you are by far my favourite wildlife garden / gardener. I just wanted to encourage you to keep making the videos because you deserve way, way more views and subscribers which i'm sure will come in time. I can't tell you how amazing your garden is and it has really inspired me to take my own garden to another level. Oh, the trellis curtain across the drive was genius by the way ! All the best mate, keep up the great work. Andy, Bournemouth.

I just tink, this man needs a large garden, i can only imagine what you can do with it. Probably a food forest. Hope some day for you.

I'm on it. That's the back. Got the front which is a respectable size. Lots to do for it since we moved in and had only plastic grass

Looks beautiful I can only imagine how it will look when all the plants mature 😎✌️

Moss is the best!! 💚 Someday I wanna have an all-moss lawn haha

I will do soon. Not the moss but sneek peak it hasn't been a success. Just can't stop it leaking. New plan though which I think will look really good

Looks and sounds lovely...the little man sounds like he approves too. Mrs S x

What about the timber along the top of your fence? Won’t the constant wetness lead to rot issues? It is quite homely. I agree with your idea of putting plants on the wall to disguise this pipe. Or wrapping the pipe in moss. It is my favorite, those planting baskets one lines with coir sheets, fills with potting medium, tucks in and plants as suits the situation (I’d use moss from the sidewalks.) Sculpture is a lovely way of concealing pipes, but I get it; your project must tick your boxes. I love ❤️ the soothing sound of moving water, and the beauty of copper. Imagines copper pipe, branching several times, like cleaning in a leaf, and then, with a little bend for a minute, cook, which overflows against the wall. Would that exposure to copper discourage moss formation ?

What a great idea.Should be perfect.xx🐝🐝

So beautiful! Well done George! 👏 Simple but so effective using low cost materials. I love your video's so much! Could hear your son at the end. So cute! ❤

Thankyou. Really appreciate it 😊. You could hear him yes. He likes to let it be know he's around.

Brilliant idea. Hope it's still going according to plan.

It is though it proved much more tricky than I anticipated.

Hi George I am glad you covered the bottom with rocks because there is no such thing as a safe pond for young toddlers, babies have a reflex that means they will relax in very cold water and can drowned if their face is in an inch.

That's ingenious. Lovely sound and a few ferns growing and moss it'll be so natural. Love it.

Thankyou. Really pleased with it. Took a good few attempts till it wasn't leaking but got there in the end 😁

Will you select and place a moss, or are you just making an inviting place for moss to arrive naturally like you do for your bees?

Moss wall update?

pond sealer? wouldn't that be bad for the moss?

If it's not put on the water will soak through the wall and drain the pond. Moss grows anywhere damp so should be ok
