Hi DeAnn🌺. The front porch looks amazing and you arranged it beautifully and these two wreaths on the door are charming . Have a great week .🌺🌻🌺

The whole front porch area is like its own outdoor room, even with a window! It looks great! Like that soft yellow too.

That's a beautiful pale yellow. It can be a difficult color to get right and I'm happy for you that you found the shed color sample. Well done! The lamium and impatiens are lovely accent plants for your topiaries. Smiles, Stella

I am a huge fan of ivy topiary trees. I too have had mine for more than 15 years. They look good in every season . I have them in elevated urns so they look extra tall. 108 to 119.... help me! IN the Bay Area we will be in the 90s all week. Hot but doable. Eleven dollars for a wreath is incredible! And yours look so pretty. I loved the big wooden chair!

Are you in CA? It does seem strange that the stucco was done that way in the 70's. I've never seen that look at all. I was raised in Fresno and I have never seen stucco in that pattern done like that there. I guess I was wrong! LOL! We have since moved out of CA to 80 acres in WI. The last 8 yrs we did live in Clovis near Buchannan Hi School. We are thrilled to be out of CA. My house now is a 90 yr. old farmhouse and I have 9 lg. flower gardens. It's a lot of work., but, gives great curb appeal. But no one drives by much. But no matter. I like it.

I always wondered why your outside looked like that. Now I know. It would have to go if it were mine too. But everything else is always so beautiful so you don't pay that much attention to it. You are a joy to watch.

What a difference I understand how excited you are that the grinding he is doing makes such a great difference, entry way looks great 😊I’m just 45 minutes south of you and I’m over these heat already 😂 just about 12 weeks till fall😮

Hello!!!! Your front porch…heck…your whole yard looks just beautiful!!!! You have given me such inspiration for my front door area!!!!! My door area, like yours, is very shaded and I have tried so many things but when I saw your topiary ivy….thunderbolt!!!!! YES!!! I am going to do that!!! I love your idea of changing out the lights as part of seasonal decorations. Thank you for this idea!!!! Try and stay cool!!!! I am up the highway from you in Fair Oaks and I am not looking forward to this heatwave!!!!

You've given me a great idea for topiarys for my front door. I've priced the faux ones and they are soooo expensive that I decided it would be better to try real ones. Yes, I see your vision and your porch is already looking warm and inviting. Gosh, I can't believe those temps! It gets that hot out in the surrounding desert (I'm in L.A.), but I had no idea it got that hot in the central valley.

Thank you for sharing, can't wait to see your new front patio. We are just down the road from Fresno so thank you for sharing your knowledge in the garden since we share the same heat I am learning a lot from your channel.

DeAnn,

💖🌸👍🏻🌸💖

I love the colors. Will be beautiful on your home, so welcoming. The front porch looks fantastic❤

I love it! It is starting to look like a magazine cover!

My goodness! What a lot of effort the two of you have put in and it shows! Your entryway is very warm and welcoming. I love what you have done.

I love your videos and I absolutely love the rocks. I would love to do that at my house.

I love the swirl marks. Im sure it will look lovely later on too though.

I really, really like your porch. So whimsical and serene. Stay cool and happy gardening. I’m waiting til autumn to paint my fence. Paint and hot, humid temps don’t mix here in Zone 9B in Houston.

I love it. First time here and I have subscribed. Looking forward to watching your progress.

Hi! Your house color is perfect. I live in Riverside county and also purchased those topiary to. I did the exact same thing I grew ivy also in pots all 3. Love your door wreaths color is so beautiful
