How fortunate we are to have someone so brilliant and generous to share with us all this useful information. You are truly a gem! Thank you.

I have a feeling that I am really going to enjoy this series on garden design!

Hello from Las Vegas! I have been enjoying your videos for quite some time now and find them extremely informative and useful. Desert environment here, but I’ve still been able to use many of your methods in my own garden. Thank you!

I love your videos, even though I garden in zone 5 in Canada. I hope you address the issue of plotting the movement of the sun over one’s garden through the course of the seasons. Thanks!

Really interesting and useful video, I've realised I should check my son's garden for levels as he has asked for advice and I haven't mentioned that

I just watched 18th century garden show hosted by Monty Don and heard about ha ha’s for the first time and now again days later here we are hearing about BG’s ha ha’s. I’m just East of the Rockies in Alberta in ranching country. Ha ha’s are much more charming than barbed wire. Today on Mother’s Day we already have 3” of snow. That’s Alberta’s version of a ha ha.

Thank you for this. Looking forward to the next one

Absolutely brilliant

Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge. Picked up three of your books from the library today!

Love the diy measuring methods, especially the laser level and all the design tips.

I have learned so much from this video about preparing to design a new garden plan. I’m not proposing to start again but aim to tweak a middle sized garden by increasing the planting space and adding trees for visual height and functional shade. Thanks, Bunny. I’m looking forward to further information in this series.

Nice video Bunny, as a land surveyor I appreciate it. I like how you remark the importance of knowing the actual space before start or planning a design. However, I missed something really important about after that. Translating that design to the real space requieres a good surveying too, specially if the design has geometric and formal elements which a bad placement can ruin a design. On the other hand, thanks to a good surveying you can make a proper idea about the amount of materials you need to fullfil the design, so can order only the necessary. Thanks again for your videos and greetings from Spain.

Excellent, Bunny. I'm house-hunting at the moment, so will use this when I get my new garden. Looking forward to the next video on planning. Fingers crossed you include some ideas for where best to place a big greenhouse.

Very informative. I am unforgivably dense so I'll need to re-view the bit about levels. But knowing I can use Google maps and a simple laser level is priceless information! Thank you.

Oh my goodness, I am so excited. Thank you so much for making this video and the design videos coming up!

Another excellent video. The respected and experienced gardener who designed our tiny town garden didn't survey the level and when we came to implement her design we found a 2' difference between the house wall and the back fence (only 33' away), so we had to substitute a brick-paved central space sunk by 18" with a raised lawn and retaining walls.

Fantastic! Incredibly helpful. Thank you.

Yes, this is exactly what I've been looking for. 5 year plan starting now. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Extremely helpful, thank you!

As always, lots of useful tips and tricks! thanks for sharing 🌺

Love the telegraph poles for the change in levels… phone apps a great for taking gps measurement or plotting out your sites.

Everything in your videos is so helpful, this will be a good series and really looking forward to it as my garden has 5 different levels.

Very informative, thank you.

Really enjoy your videos. My kind of garden. Can’t wait for next video on designing the garden.

just recently subscribed to you channel. I think it is absolutely brilliant and I look forward to catching up. thank you.

been looking for a video like this - Thanks Ms Bunny

Awesome information. I do a lot of intuitive gardening but always with a design in mind ... still I gotta work on measuring more. Great reminder.

Thanks Bunny, I love your videos - not only informative, but great tips (I bought faux garden architecture from the lovely theatre design people) and also pragmatic.

Thank you Ms Guinness for such useful information.

This is great, thank you Bunny! I confess that I feel a little inadequate to the process but you've pointed a very good, doable way for me to plan the garden more functionally. Warmest regards Jennie

For the trees and small structures you could overlay a google maps satellite image of your property over your survey.

She actually says "haha" because it is the name for a partially sunken wall.

Can you recommend a place to purchase large pots for impact

Hello Bunny, My property is similar in size to yours. I noticed that you planted a large wooded area. Did you use this area for gardens ? Or is it simply a wood.

Can I plant an orange maple tree that is about 6 feet tall and has been in the ground 6 or 7 years it in a bottomless pot. Do you think it will survive with lots of water. I live in the USA northeast . Thank you denise

The levels at my place are killing me! It is so incredibly deceptive. I've had to get retaining walls and steps all over the place...

I should have mentioned I’m from New Zealand.

Does it work for U.S.?
