    Some folks just have a better eye for these things. This gentleman makes $10 dollars look like $100. I make $100 look like a penny, lol.

    I admire your dedication. I know how hard it is the keep pathways groomed when your garden is surrounded by large trees. Often gardening is just housework out of doors.

      Thanks very true. I also view it as exercise and great way to get vitamin D from the sun.

    Wonderful tips, thank you! I landscaped a hill with walkways. I actually utilized chipped slate for the walkway as it is less likely to roll down the hill. It has done well for 5+ years.

    Thank you for the garden tour and tips. Your property is gorgeous, and I admire that you do everything right. It really makes a difference in the energy frequency and lovliness of your gardens.

    Gorgeous yard. Thank you for the very helpful info. I’m about to try to install a garden pathway in my backyard by myself as a woman. Going to use my tiller and then buy a cheap compactor and use that #57 gravel you recommended I think. Someone also recommended running pipe along the pathway under the ground (while I have it all dug up anyway) to be used for later installation of pathway lighting.

    • @ZenGardenOasis.
      @ZenGardenOasis.  Місяць тому

      I think the idea is sound….lighting really helps. I rented a dingo to move 80 tons of #57. Made it massively easier. Good luck.

      True….I had to move it from its old location which had a bog filter but a home repair issue limited time to move it….the bog filter worked perfectly.

    nice gardens ! Thanks for the tips. I was wondering if it would work …using the #57 gravel and then just topping it off with the pea gravel?

    • @ZenGardenOasis.
      @ZenGardenOasis.  2 місяці тому +1

      I tried it once in a path and the mower tires sank through to the #57. If it’s high foot traffic or vehicle path I would always opt for #57. Happy gardening

    Do you have weed block fabric under the gravel?

    • @ZenGardenOasis.
      @ZenGardenOasis.  Місяць тому +1

      No I put it down with a rented dingo (earthmover). It’s about 4-6 inches thick. It does get weeds and I have to treat them 2-3x per year.

    aquarium and pond keeper for my whole life. green water is healthy water, not attractive, but actually good for the fish. If it starts to turn yellow, do an immediate water change as the algae is dying and will be toxic.

    Suggestions for cheap lawn edging that actually works? The metal stuff is soooo expensive and the plastic is a real PITA to put in . I am also trying to slowly bring the edges of my yard inward. But the cost of edging it well is prohibitive right now!
