    Nice ideas but I really would like to see some video and pictures of what the xeriscape landscaping looks like. Looking at the woman talking doesn't help me with that. Nice to share ideas but there's nothing like seeing examples of xeriscape that would help me. Also super up close pictures of plants and leaves don't help me know what Nice xeriscape landscaping could look like. Overall the videography is lame.

    1- planning and designing: use of space and how it is used. How you plant, where you plant ia affected by it. 2- Soil type: find out and enrich as needed. Do a soil test. 3- practical turf areas(20-25% of the area). Bermuda grass etc 4- Plants: plants that are adapt to seasonal changes, local nurseries would tell whats suitable what uses how mich water, sun vs shade etc. Check colors, textures, shapes, heoghts( low and high). Make sure you have plants that will bloom during differenr seasons. Edibles are also welcome( raised bed gardens). Check xediscape plant guide online. 5- water efficiency, cycle soak, rainwater catch system. Use rainbarrels. Plant in zones: high water ( closer to your water source), low water further away from your source. 6-Use of mulches: keeps humidity, pine straw, cedar, rocks etc. Make sure the water does not drive them away... 7- appropriate maintennace: for staring until they are settled water as needed. Prune, clean, fertilize, keep insects away, maintain... Lady bugs help get rod of amall insects. 6-

    Great concept, but it would be even better with an extended focus on biodiversity as well as climate. The biodiversity you already get by using native plants, but the climate aspect would require that you don't recommend the usage of peat moss and other amendments with a massive climate impact. But very informative and inspirational video! Good job.

    There are 3 types. She is just talking about hot composting - which is fastest. I also do cold composting and anaerobic composting (done inside water). Nature don't have all these rules. Given enough time and the right condition everything will eventually break down. Problem with hit composting is too many rules as what can go in and what cannot.

    I live in 30141. I never knew what I was doing at my home had a name. The first summer I lived here my water bill is exceeded $400 per month since we have an irrigation throughout the front yard approximately 3/4 of an acre. Since then I've taken the approach if the plant cannot live without supplemental water in my area then it does not have the right to live in my yard. What I've noticed is that the native species too the southeast and the United States seem to excel in my yard. Even the grass, I have never sewn any seed. I only apply a broad spectrum weed preventer twice a year and the remaining grass that grows is cut at 4 inches. I have no idea what grass is growing in my yard but it definitely is no longer Bermuda. I believe it's a blend of cool and warm season grasses that are probably considered weeds but since it grows so dense it looks like sod. I also minimized the amount of grass by adding a large shrub bed that sways through the middle of the lawn.

      Have you ever looked into alternatives for broad-spectrum weed killers? They have such negative impacts overall. Very nice that you’re having success with drought-tolerant gardening.

    Great idea to have a learning centre. Will suggest to our hort society. Our hort society did a garden but in a private home so was only available for a limited time. We also have to consider altitude as we are 3000 ft and classed as alpine sem-desert. We need to make xeriscaped landscape more appreciated and get rid of mass lawns.

    I was told a chicken will lay and egg every 26 hours, so if a chicken is laying almost everyday, the eggs will come anytime during the day or night. Typically they will not lay when they are in their night box, but they will then lay right away in the am. The chickens can hold their eggs if they are in danger or not comfortable. But they will keep laying as long as they feel comfortable.
