This is my ALL TIME FAVOURITE KZfaq video! I've been watching it for years, it's such an inspiration and lovely to watch the old school KZfaq videos that are clearly a labour of love and not just to capture views.

I am landscaping my mother's house while she is in rehab recovering from a broken leg and medical complications. You have inspired me. Plants were ordered and I will be picking up topsoil this week. Thank you.

Now this is my kind of garden video! I just loved this so much: a small yard, but look at the transformation. I simply cannot identify, really, with a huge property and seemingly limitless budget. My property measures 150 ft. x 50 ft., plenty big enough to keep me terribly busy. At first I balked at the straight lines/edges, since I love curves, but this was so enchanting.

This is still the best video on a cottage garden. The yard looks twice as large in the end and it reminds me of the movie I just saw The Beautiful Fantastic.

Just beautiful .The lady's softly spoken narration added to the pleasure of the evolving yearly changes , A most enjoyable instructive moment . Thankyou for shareing

I Love your garden. So Beautiful. I cannot wait for spring to get in the garden and plant new flowers. Thank you for sharing. 🦋🌺

Just beautiful! I love the narration of the creator and it was wonderful to see the progress and development through the years.

I love the way this garden came together. The gardener had a great sense of vision.

What a wonderful, magical video. It reads like a well loved gardening book. I come back time and time again and think this year I shall begin my own sedum hedge.

This video was so lovely I want to cry. Thank you.

What a beautiful video and garden! I thoroughly enjoyed it. I live in the UK so looking for ideas as due to move in a few weeks to a run down garden. This has inspired me so much thank you

What a delight for the eye. Thank you for sharing

Beautiful! So valuable to see how you thought out your pencil and paper plan before breaking ground and the modifications to that plan over the years. And your husbands carpentry skills are awesome. So Beautiful!

Thank you for sharing. It was so very enjoyable on this rainy Sunday.

This is a lovely inspiration! We built a house a year ago and have been landscaping a cottage garden as we can find the time and money. It is such a good reminder that it is something that will take years, it makes me relax a bit actually! What you created is beautiful, wish I could come and linger there. Thank you for sharing!

My Favorite is the sedum autumn joy hedge it's wonderful! Thank you for showing us your garden!

Not sure this is quite a cottage garden -- feels too geometrically laid out -- but it's absolutely lovely. Wonderful video. Thank you, if you're still seeing comments here 11 plus years later.

How utterly beautiful and what an achievement! Congratulations and thank you for sharing.

A glorious garden. I have watched this video many times. Everything is perfection - the words, voice, music, imagery - everything!

Beautiful and so nice that you show the start and progressions and even a mistake later repurposed. Great job!!

Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! ❤️

Thank you got sharing this with us. Very pretty. And your commentary is lovely, witty and soothing like a good audiobook 😊

Thanks for your kind words. This has been a difficult garden year in our part of the world, very wet in early summer, heat and drought in late summer, ending the season with flooding rains, but the garden is still intact and some years that is all you can hope for. Oddly enough it seemed to be a great year for all our pear trees.

Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing. Star Gazer Lily is one of my favorites, it's why I have it as my photo, since my name is Lilli.

Thank you for sharing your work! Your garden is lovely!

I can see your passion for gardening in this video! Beautiful is a word that doesn't even come close!

Beautiful garden! Thank you for sharing it with us on KZfaq. I bought a 1930 house last year and am just starting my cottage garden this spring...IF...we ever get a spring! My gardens will have to be shade gardens as I have 3 large old trees covering the entire yard and house. I won't even consider removing the trees so the best option is to have shade gardens.

What an inspirational video. Thank you so much.

That's what I call a job well done, a true labor of love. Thank you so much for sharing, and it was beautifully narrated.

That’s great , a nice garden really makes a home .

Wonderful video, such a beautiful garden! Thank you this really helps me. I'm at the beginning stage of planning a cottage garden.

I love this garden and you've shown it very well. I can watch this forever. thx

Beautiful transformation! Thanks for sharing!

Your love of this is evident at every stage. Loved sharing it with you.

Love your garden. I have worked on my cottage garden for 25 years. You never get done and there is always something new you want to do. Thanks for sharing. I really like the pear trees!

Stunning and very inspiring! Thank you for sharing!

Wow! What is beautiful work of love. Your voice is so pleasant to listen to.

Beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!

Very nice! I love the redbud tree and your sedum hedge idea.

Love the Dry New England sense of humor. Planted with love so it blooms with Beauty. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for sharing. I started my garden two years ago and it's filling in nicely

It's like a dream what you have done with this garden! I have no garden, only a great balcony, but I love so much cottage garden! Nature, flowers it's so wonderful! Thank you for posting this beautiful video!

I have Sedum in various places and containers in my small Bungalow garden and haven't considered it for a hedge. I think I will re-think that. Thank you for sharing your garden.

What an amazing transformation . Thank you so much for sharing. It must be wonderful to know you created such a beautiful spot out of nothing.

Firstly I just love your wonderful soothing voice and secondly amazing secret garden, you inspire me Miss!

Absolutely Breathtaking!!!!...Ann you are a gardening genius!

What an amazing transformation and a glorious garden. I'm starting from scratch with a small space and your video has given me some great inspirations. Thank you!

What a great job you've done on this garden. I love it.

Lovely garden. I enjoyed your sense of humour, too. 'A maze for the directionally challenged' knocked my socks off!

Great effort and thought put into the garden.

How gifted you are, and your passion for gardening and plants is inspiring, great work!

Beautiful garden! Your home reminds me so much of where I used to live in New London, CT! Thank you so much for sharing!

beautiful garden, thank you for sharing, there is much love and care into it, it is soothing to watch

Wow!! You have achieved wonderful things in just 10 years. I just love how your cottage garden turned out. I used to live in England, & had a pretty cottage garden with a cottage attached. I'm living back in New Zealand now, & five years ago, bought a 1910 large colonial cottage. which I love. But there was no garden at all, & only two trees .... one of which sadly came down in a storm, but has started growing again. We've put in gardens along fencelines, & some arches & trellis fences, climbing roses & other flowering shrubs, but we both still work. We are looking forward to retiring in a few weeks, & then when spring comes, we will get truly stuck into a large back garden area. Your garden has inspired me, so thanks for sharing it with all of us.

Thank you for sharing! It is so nice to see the before and after pictures. You have done a beautiful job with your garden. It's very inspirational!

How very inspiring and absolutely beautiful! Thank you for taking the time to share this unique treasure of a space with all of us.

What a joy thanks for sharing !

a wonderful and interesting video. you have a very soft , soothing voice for this. good job and a well done garden. thanks.

Thank you for sharing your journey from the beginning! I'm about to leave one garden, and already looking forward to making the next one...wish I could live forever and keep making gardens like yours, a joy!

This is a very beautiful garden with great design and layouts. thanks for sharing, subscribed!

I love garden videos, this one was the best ever.

Your garden is so lovely, just sensational. You should be so proud of your accomplishments, both of you. Thank you so much for sharing this inspiration with us.

Thank you so much for putting this video on the 'Tube. Lots of great ideas and some ideas for me to be going on with. Greetings from the New Forest in Southern England

What a lovely garden! Great job... Thank you for sharing.

That's pretty much what my back yard looks like! (The first picture.. lol.) Wow, now I'm excited to keep working on it. (All I did the first year was pull weeds and prepare the truly insanely messed up flower beds along the house..) I don't know if it will ever be as impressive as yours, that looks like a lot of work.. but now I see its potential more clearly. Your garden is fantastic.

LOVELY garden! and your subtle sense of humor is great :)

Stunning. Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful! I just bought a country cottage and can't wait to get started on my gardens. Yours is truly beautiful. Thank you for such a wonderful video. I will be watching it more than once to get some wonderful ideas.

This is a truly beautiful garden. Very inspiring and so refreshing to tour from our drought ridden patch in Australia.

What a wonderful garden. You deserve to be proud of your hard work. Love it!

Your garden is magnificent! Beautiful job.
