I live in Portland and I participated in a bike tour of eco-friendly gardens, which included Darcy’s, in 2007. It so completely blew my mind it flipped on the gardening switch in my brain. It’s such a special, dynamic, beautiful space.

Hey i just gotta tell you, you have one of the best landscape tours on youtube. Thanks I like how you let the people describe their gardens, the what when and why. Thanks for identifying the plants. Your tours really show the people’s garden fever. Bert, an old guy living a grateful life in southern oregon, and a retired landscaper

@@overthefencetours Portland I believe. Darcy made a video tour of her garden but I would love to see an interview tour to hear how she made her garden. Probably the best garden I've ever seen on the internet is also in Portland, JJ De Sousa's garden. Now that would be an amazing interview. To get into her head to understand how she designed her garden would be amazing.

Beautiful and inspiring. I love the leaves on the Chamaecyparis 'Iceberg' contrasting with the hosta. We have two umbrella pines and they are Not small. LOL. There is one at the Hulda Klager Lilac gardens that is twice as tall as ours. Definitely a different variety in this garden!

Beautiful garden tour. I am jealous of what can be grown in Oregon compared to what we can grow here in Colorado's very dry climate.

@overthefencetours 13 күн бұрын

We do have quite a diversity of plants that grow here, but I am so looking forward to making my way out to Colorado to do some tours out there. I love high-desert gardening so much. Pointy cactuses mixed with soft, heat-resistant leafy plants, and rustling grasses, in shades of silver, sage, and purple. Ah it’s gotta be my favorite type of garden. But don’t tell the other gardens I said that 😝

@GDSavingThePast 13 күн бұрын

@@overthefencetours Well I certainly am not the one to talk to about gardening in Colorado, this was my 1st year doing it and at least half of what I planted is now dead. LOL There are some great public gardens in Colorado you might want to check out to see the diversity of plants that are grown here and I have seen each of these here on youtube. Check out the Yampa River Botanic Park in Steamboat Springs as well as the public gardens at CSU in Ft Collins and the Denver Botanic gardens where you can see everything from Xeric gardening to much more lush type gardens. Happy Gardening GD

This is a really lovely and well produced video, but I do have a couple suggestions! The music volume is a little loud compared to the voices, particularly where it cuts in with music in between sections of the tour. Second, I am using headphones and noticed that each person's voice is in a different ear. IMO it would be better to flatten this to mono so that both voices come through both channels at once. Thanks for showcasing this lovely garden!

Hi, Darcy here … sorry to say I don’t have a definitive ID on that one 🤨 Soooo many great hostas to choose from: I suggest looking for ones that you like the look of, at the size you desire, AND (in our area) those that have thick, slug-and-snail-resistant foliage. Hope that helps!

You Tube: 🥺 PLEASE consider providing software DESIGNED TO RECORD MUSIC? Many content creators use the wrong software, and just may not know the difference: Because it is NOT designed to record music (unlike one section of the second musical intro), it causes well-meaning creators to add "music" to their videos that are sour in sound, better left off entirely. Wrong software yields music that is distorted, off-key, "under water sounding", and sour. The software used to record the little musical set which intro'd a section at the "2nd beginning", WAS recorded by the right software, software designed to record music. And sounded lovely, therefore.

I like the fence and gate the most. The garden is nice, but clearly your neighbors don't share your vision since they actually have grass. These types of gardens just don't belong is such close proximity to other houses.
