A great addition! Nothing like the sound of water in a garden. I did a goldfish patio pond a few years ago and it brings us endless joy.
Oh wow, I bet that is fantastic. We just finished a frog pond (50 gallon). Such a fun project! Thanks 🙏
I love your channel! You and your husband are such inspirations. My husband and I have been binge watching! You mentioned Laura from Garden Answer being your inspiration, I think your channel is much more relatable and informative and that you are the inspiration!
Wow Susan Thank you for your kind words! Gardening is my hobby and not my business so I feel my videos are very amateur sometimes (like how many times I say "I'm super excited" or "umm", not to mention volume issues). We are just a couple who love diy and are passionate about gardening and meeting other gardeners so I really appreciate the encouragement!!
Wow, I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
Thanks so much!
🌿... So glad I found your channel!! I'm really enjoying all if your videos! You & Hubby make a great team in the garden & it really shows in your beautiful property!
~Blessings from PA! ☘🌺
Aww thanks for your kind words! PA is where I was raised mostly.
@@planttasticcookinggardenin1561 well... you sure sound like a Jersey girl now lol! 😇
@@carolpipher4839 Absolutely, I've been here for 34+ years lol and hope many more to come!
You two remind me of my husband and I. Love that you guys do most stuff yourselves. Beautiful work.
That is awesome! Kindred spirits!! Thank you so much :)
Those endless summer hydrangeas are beautiful and so is the fountain ❣
Thank you, Endless summers have quickly become my favorite in the garden...so easy!!
The fountain ⛲️ is so beautiful and the sound of the water is amazing 🌺🌸🌼💕🌱🌿🪴
It really is and so relaxing to sit by. Thank you so much!
So pretty, love water falling in a garden. So handy your husband knows how to run electric for your projects.
Thanks Marti! Yes, it is :)
I really dig the look of the lamium and caladium in the pot together! And the heucherella.
Glad you like the combination! Those plants are very low maintenance and I rarely water them. I will definitely be repeating the combination next year and leaving the heucherella and lamium to overwinter in the pots so I'll just have to pop in the caladium bulbs in the summer.
Love the fountain garden. Your choice of music is awesome!
Thanks so much!
Nicole I love your new fountain and the plants around it and your screened in area is awesome. I am so glad y’all weren’t hurt when the board broke. Enjoy your new area❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much!! Yes, we really lucked out that the injury was mild to my wrist lol.
I love your garden, seems like a mini forest.Those thick tall plants creates fresh surrounding.
Thank you!! It is a nice escape from the suburban jungle all around our property!
What a beautiful fountain! Some gold fish in the base would be fun.
Good luck with your boulder.
Thanks so much, the boulder is in place lol!
Just beautiful! A lot of hard work went into installing that gorgeous fountain. Thank you for sharing it!
Yes it was but so worth it. Thank you!!

Love love this space!! Thanks for sharing!!😍
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi my dear friend for another great video love what you did with your garden thank you so much for sharing it with us. Always love a good garden video hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy until the next video
Thank you!
LOL, installing our second fountain as well. I am loving your channel. Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you! I just subscribed to your channel and can't wait to see more. Documenting our garden journey has been fun (sometimes a pain also lol) but when you look back and see where you started, it's sooo encouraging!!
@@planttasticcookinggardenin1561 You def have a lot of knowledge in gardening. So very gifted. I have recently discovered this joy since quarantine began. I was going to hire a landscape designer. But soon learned that the decorating that I do indoors, the techniques can be applied in the garden.
I have many mistakes in the garden but slowly I am improving. Thank you for making my morning so filled with new and inspiring ideas. Thank you.
Nice addition to an already great area. Enjoy!
Thank you so much ☺️!
I love your garden and the fountain is just beautiful. I'm a mnemonic ewes subscriber and look forward to new videos.
Hello Judy👋! Thank you 🙏
This fountain adds relaxing ambience in your garden.
Thanks 🙏!
Fantastic project and well done 👍
Glad you like it! Thank you!
That came out nicely.
Thanks 🙏!
Just beautiful!
Thank you!!
that's a beautiful japonese maple tree
Thank you!
So beautiful! I just recently subscribed to your channel, and am really enjoying what you shared! You seem to have a style that I really like. I have most of the plants that you have including willow trees in a pot, (except it is curly willow), and a bike!😉 I have 2 beautiful grandbabies ages 2 1/2 and 4 months..... I love your copper painted troughs and would love to know how you did it! Thank you for sharing. I hope you keep it up and your channel grows.👍🌸
Thank you so much! It sounds like we have a lot in common. I also have two grandbabies (ages 3 1/2 and 16 months). They are a joy!! I will be doing a video on the copper tubs as soon as I can get to it. My husband and I do these vlogs kind of like a diary of our garden adventures and not as a business right now. Ahh bikes, they are the best!!
Very beautiful, I love it !!
Thank you so much!
So beautiful.
Thank you so much!!
Y’all are amazing
You are so nice, thank you 🙏
Very beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
Absolutely beautiful! I must ask, does your significant other also enjoy working in the garden? I am an avid gardener, but my husband is not, and loves his lawn. Makes it difficult to get him to agree to remove more lawn in favor of planting space.
Thank you! Hmm, good question. Honestly I think my husband only gardens because of me. He just goes along with what I tell him were doing 😂. You have being “earth friendly” on your side with getting rid of lawn. Lawns require a lot of chemicals, fertilizers and work. Getting rid of them is a win for the earth. But I do recognize that a beautiful lawn screams Americana 😂
Lindo, adorei. Estou montando o seu hoje cuidando para que dique igual a esse. Parabens 👏👏👏💝
Thanks so much!
Love it 🥰

Very nice! Can you share where you got the hard top gazebo and that beautiful fountain?
Thank you! We purchased the gazebo from Big Lots last year. Lowe's has a gorgeous one this year and the fountain was purchased at our local farm stand/nursery Gene's, Mays Landing NJ
What a gorgeous space!!! Are those endless summer hydrangeas twist & shout? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks 🙏! They are endless summer original.
What is the brand and stone color of this fountain? Very beautiful.
Thank you 🙏! I don’t know, it was a floor model. Thanks for stopping by!!
I am on the hunt for a fountain. Where do you buy your fountains? Also, I love your hard top screened gazebo. Do you take it down in the winter?
Thank you! No we don’t take it down but i do remove snow from it. It’s great storage in the winter for outside furniture. The fountains were purchased at Genes nursery, mays landing nj.
where did you get your fountain? very nice
Thank you! Our local farm market Gene's.
how long did it take for your maple to get that big? it looks so beautiful
I think about 8 years, thank you!
Where was fountain Purchased?TY Lovely couple and pleasantly done garden 🌿⚘🌹🏡🌹⚘🌿
Thank you so much! It was purchased at Gene's Nursery, Mays Landing NJ.
Tyvm, You are One of Most Precious Down to Earth Enjoyable Couples..Appreciate the Refreshing You Bring...
Nice fountain, almost a little to loud for the sitting area next to it.
Thanks! We love the sound, that’s the wonderful thing about them but to each their own 😊
Ok so off subject.... where did you obtain the tiered basket that was to the right of video (as soon as it started... right next to the table?
Fountain project turned out beautiful by the way.
Lol, I noticed and was thinking the same thing.
Thank you! I purchased 2 of those at my local Hobby Lobby. They still have them in stock.
Is there something you can use to keep the water in the fountain from getting green? I’ve tried using distilled water from my dehumidifier, a little vinegar but haven’t found anything yet.
Not completely, you will have to drain a fountain periodically for a thorough cleaning. You can use a fish/bird/wildlife algaecide like Api Pond Algaefix to control algae between cleanings. You don't need much. I don't recommend acids like vinegar or harsh chemicals like bleach because it can be harsh for wildlife and tough on the concrete. I use regular city water in my fountains. Algae is caused by a combo of nitrogen and sunlight. I hope this helps.
I love 💕 shady areas, the Hydrangeas are beautiful, do you leave your Gazebo out in winter ?, mine is a fabric top and we take it down because of snow in Western Massachusetts
Thank you! Yes, we leave it out all year and use it to store our outdoor furniture cushions in the winter. It has a hard metal top and has sustained two tropical storms, snow and ice with no problems. We do take down the screening though. I prefer it open in the Spring and Fall.
We’re did you buy your fountain please love yours
Thank you! We purchased both of our fountains at our local farm market. They are a wonderful family business. www.genesfarmandgarden.com/
love! the fountain and the hydrangeas softens it. what is your growing zone?
Hi 👋 thank you! We are zone 6b.
#GardenGoals
Thank you!! :)
Hi there, do you have a source for the fountain? It's lovely.
No, this one was a discontinued floor model. Sorry!
Hello!, Is that fountain available in a nationwide store or was just a local shop at your city?.Beautiful garden and gorgeous fountain!!!.
I’m not sure 🤔 We bought that from our local nursery. He sold us our 1st fountain and we get a lot of our plants from him. Thank you so much 😊
Manufacturer and name of the fountain?
Hi, Debbie here. The fountain is a great addition. May I ask where you purchased it? You have a lovely and peaceful garden. I am trying to achieve a similar look.
Hello 👋 Debbie! Thanks 🙏! We got the fountain at our local nursery, Genes nursery, Mays Landing NJ.
Thank you for the reply. Not many nurseries in our area of NJ carry
fountains except for small birdbaths.
Beautiful garden furniture 💕where did you buy ur set from please 😘😘
Thank you! The dining set is cast aluminum and was purchased at McNaughtons, Somerspoint NJ.
@@planttasticcookinggardenin1561 I meant the rattan chairs
Oh sorry! I don’t recommend that set. It’s given us nothing but trouble.
😪😪
Curiously I'm considering putting in a maple but I wondered if it was fast growing (more than a foot of growth per year); how long did you have that volunteer maple in your garden?
Umm approximately 2 years I think. Yes they are really fast growers in our area zone 6b NJ. Sandy loam soil. The mother tree is in the neighbors yard, about 8 years old and it’s at least 30 feet tall. They grow like Leyland Cypress here 😂. In comparison, the red acers have been there for 18 years. We do not prune them for height. We do amend with a lot of compost in our beds so that could be part of it.
I would not plant a maple tree within 15 ft of a structure. They are fast growers even 2 - 3 feet per year in my zone 8A. The maple trees also have vigorous roots that can damage foundation and plumbing. A minimum space between a living structure and tree is required to minimize damage. I am not discouraging the placement of one of these trees in your property just be thoughtful of it's placement. They are beautiful trees that produce amazing shade and fall color. Especially the new varieties like Autumn Blaze.
@@jaimeduran3378 thanks for the advice jamie. I have 1 acre so ill be planting two maples well away from my house and any underground lines.
Great job 👏🏼 lovely ✅ CHIPS WORLD
