- Just wow!!
Clients Ann and Dan have done a stellar job of maintaining this installation that we installed last November.
It held up through the winter with only minor damage to some of the aloes and a few random small things rotted.
Be sure to watch to the end to see a before photo!
Laura, I am in China, I love watching your videos. Most Chinese people don’t own their own garden, a semi open air balcony is a luxury. And that’s how most of chinese succulent lovers in China keep their plants, in small pots in the balcony. Your creativity,various plants and big space to design the tapestry always amaze me. That’s something I cannot imagine that would happen to me.
The succulent garden is much more lush and interesting to look at than all the surrounding green lawn at the neighboring houses.
It's really her signature style of staging plants that makes the gardens look so lush. She really has an eye for what areas should be blown out and what areas to restrain and go with specimens spaced further apart.
Ann is a diligent succulents Momma. Beautiful garden.
I just love looking at the plants and rocks. Find something new and interesting every day!
@@anndrew733 you and Dan are doing amazing in keeping up your wonderfully gorgeous garden. Love Dan's idea about adding native succulents to you all's garden.
I'm always so jealous of the variety of plants you have access to... I guess the only thing stopping me from spending all my money on a mangave collection is my lack of access to them 🤣
The garden has given me inspiration to tear out my front yard & start my dream succulent / cactus yard. Thank you for sharing
I absolutely LOVE this garden, one of my favourites! Ann & Dan are doing an amazing job of maintaining what team DFS so lovingly created! ♥🧡💚💛💜💙❤
Ann and her husband are a testament to your great work, Laura. Their care and attention to their garden Is so evident. Congratulations to California gardeners who are recognizing the need for a change in their environment and lifestyle due to water shortage and restrictions. Succulents are absolutely the today and the future and they make the most beautiful garden. The State of California should have Hannah in some public service commercials (well paid, of course) to educate gardeners to a brighter future...in my very humble opinion. Enjoy some vaca time after your next installation.
The choice and placement of the boulders is the perfect hardscape for this garden! You aced the top dressings, too!
Wow, Ann and Dan have done a marvelous job in keeping their garden healthy! How helpful would it be to have Laura in your garden helping with any issues that come up? She can even move plants for you! I cut off the aeonium babies and plant them in the ground. I love them! 🥰
Thank you Ann, Dan and Laura for giving us a tour of this gorgeous garden!! It beats that boring, water-gobbling grass hands down!! The attentive care you give to your plants is evident - I can imagine the plants are as happy to see you as you are to them! 💚💚💚
Looks so beautiful. The harmsii and the kalanchoe luciae are unbelievable. The colour!! With water problems all over the earth this makes so much sense.
What a difference between the before and after. Stunning!!!
Yes native plants! So many beautiful species to mix in with the succulents to add texture and habitat for all the creatures.
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing succulents garden looking very lovely ❤❤
Enjoyed this video,I like meeting Ann.She has stayed involved with her garden and it shows! Fantastic! Envious from Florida😜
Just found my rocks that I want to use in my yard. I have a desert museum too in my backyard. Also, all the succulents are awesome! Going to look for some some new additions to add to my yard. I will just show them from this video. So beautiful. Lovely to share this wonderful garden with us. I feel so lucky to see plants that have grown!!!!
The care by the home owner of the garden is a credit to her, it looks like a new installation!
Yayy Anne, 🎉 Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden 💚💚
Those ruby slippers!!!! 😍
Love size is plants in this install, clean and beautiful
❤️❤️❤️🌵
The sedum apple snaps looks great with mint truffles. Also your recent update of the coral reef in UTC area reminded me.. when I’m at a loss for designs, the best combos are sometimes things that look similar. Those guys have all their snake plants together, and I never knew how great that could look. Sansevieria Moonlight (or moonshine), Trifasciata and cylindrica look so good together. Throw some laurentii and starfish in too lol
Such a beautiful garden!!! 💚💚💚
The cool thing about this is. You don't have to choose one or the other. You can have your cake and eat it too enjoying the best of both worlds. These succulent gardens especially these ones Laura does are amazing for front yards with looking great while being low maintenance and low on water. So you can have a really nice looking presentable front yard that you don't have to really work on much at all.
Or even the reverse, since succulents are great in smaller areas. Some locations backyards are much smaller than front yards so you may want it in your backyard instead. They make great low maintenance container gardens for those areas. You can make it look really cool with different sized fancy pots with tall narrow succulents in those small backyards. Those small backyards in desert areas many people just end up not even using them since they can be so ugly it's hard to know what to do. Like a 70% UV mesh and cool succulent pots and a nice tabled sitting area for those small backyards to make it usable and just have a fan and you are set. I've seen it done in Vegas and it's really practical and makes it a usable enjoyable area instead of "death valley" lol.
Great discussion Laura and Ann on what plants may need help or replacement depending on microclimate and pests, and the how easy it is to pull up and plant with just one hand. Your garden looks so cool and has incredible street appeal Ann.
I love seeing all these gardens you have done. I heard you mention that you were stopping in Manteca, both my sons live there. If I had known this earlier I would’ve had one of them go find you and get an autograph from you for me. You are my favorite UA-cam person to watch. Please keep doing what you do cause I love watching the videos
Email me at designforserenity@yahoo.com Maria!
I’d be happy to share our location with you.
Send your son over and I’ll give him that autograph!
Just a beautiful garden. I would love to know her paint color she did on her house. Amazing before and after.
Dunn & Edward’s limerick
Crazy how quickly plants grow. I feel like I'm lucky if I get 1 extra sunburst per year.
You're correct if you cut the aloes too short the leaves just fall apart and unfold till nothing is left. Which reminds me to still show you my aloes
I am lovin’ you revisiting your installations. Terrific!
wow awesome improvement . well peek a boo time. maybe we all can see the ranch on your long weekend. have a great chill out time up there.
oh her nails are just too cool!! 💜💚
Lisa Frank nail stickers, from Orly. My students love them!
the hardscape and the perfect combination of plants look amazing. Great maintenance job. I def need to redo my front entrance and backyard.. Lots of cleanup but oh so worth it. I am loving all the budding flowers from these succulents. Just beautiful and the orange little rocks under the tree as camouflage was a great idea!
Very beautiful succulent garden
one of my favorite installs! looks great
Stunning!!!!!!!!
Looks beautiful. Wish I was able to stay on top of my garden like that. I'm jelly! That poor aloe bainesii is such a bummer. Being surrounded by so much succulent perfection, it looks extra sickly in comparison.
G-g-g-gorgeous!! 😍
Absolutely stunning!
So beautiful 😍 I enjoy that garden thanks Laura
Beautiful!
what a beautiful garden :)
Lovely garden!
wow, looks fantastic!!!! 😍😍
Beautiful !!!❤️❤️
Wow looking great
The yard does look much better as a succulent garden than with the grass. I'm sure the grass took a lot of water, fertilizer, and time.
Gorgeous 👍
I live in Manteca I would love to come by and say hi!!!!
We’d love to meet you, Lisa!
Please email me at designforserenity@yahoo.com
Beautiful 😍
🙂👍👍
Is that even the same house? Cannot believe the beauty. Thinking about moving to San Diego just so I can keep my succulents looking like that.
Thank You. We added-0n and built out over the courtyard in 2006.
you are near me in manteca,40nminutes a day and it gets hotter in summer and some winters are wet and last year we had 3 days of 28 degrees which is rare.i didnt lose anything but there is also the wind every day
Hi Laura👋 I lived in Stockton, CA, 20 miles from Manteca and I would love ❤️ to meet you and see your work in person 😊
Hi Carolina!

We’d love to meet you, too!
@@LauraEubanks HI Laura, okay I will🥰
Amazing 💚
Beautiful. I heard you mention giving more water to the Pedilanthus to make it leaf out.... I have and still no leaves? Even the one in a large pot. Thanks.
Add more water consistently until it leafs out😊
🙋
🥰🌵
Laura do Ocotillo grow in that area? There were Ocotillo in phx. When I lived there and they are so cool when they bloom I'm surprised you don't use them if you can ... they are so tall😆😆
We use a look alike called allualdia procera
Wow! That's soooo awesome!!! Can you tell me what it costs to commission a yard like that? I'm in Sacramento and have a big disorganized succulent collection. We get frost over the winter so most of my plants are covered. I would love to remove my front lawn for a xeriscape yard.
Did I miss this instalation? Or you did not show it?
You missed it lol yay you can binge watch now…
Somehow it looks different than when it was initially installed. The colours are popping more.

It .use be an American thing we have no fungi on our Aloe. Banes
Hi Laura and Ann
Super frontage. Did you install the irrigation lines here?
Yes.
Subterranean drip
@@LauraEubanks - It's all hand watered...no irrigation or drip whatsoever. We opted for better rocks and boulders over irrigation :) If everything dies, the rocks will still look great!
Aloe is ugly 😅 I’m sorry. You are an incredible designer though, not throwing shade on you, it’s just subjective.
Wow nice 😀 I like it plants
