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!

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

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!

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!

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!

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 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?

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.

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.🐇

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.
