@Ryan Mullaney. Let's GO! You're going to love some of the videos I have coming up! Lots of t-shirts. I have put the "have to be 100% professional" aside and I am having way more fun on camera! Stay tuned and thank you for the comment!
This is a fantastic video if you are like me and wanting to know where get started and how to pick plants and add structure and slowly fill in the gaps with texture and color thank you for sharing
Lol! I worked really hard on this design so I was excited to share it with you guys! If you think this is excited, wait till you see some of the upcoming videos. I’ve been filming in the morning when I have way more energy and they are a lot of fun!
@BushFN thank you! The butterfly garden was something new for me to design but since this design I’ve incorporated into a few others. Thank you for the comment!
Hardscape and bed design looks good, best to pull the beds further from the house and leave plenty of room for the trees to fully mature. Also, regarding the butterfly garden: no butterfly bush - it's non-native and invasive. Please encourage your viewers to research and plant native to their Ecoregion. Hope this is helpful. 😊
I'm a DIYer but I would and have just bought smaller trees,can't afford the bigger ones or I wait for the bigger one to go on sale. You still have your own budget and that was so way out of mine, and doing it over time would help too. Thanks love the design mine would just take longer to grow.
Yard work costs money 💰 lol. My wife and I moved one year ago and began working on our yard. Some plants for the front. Some for the back. Grass maintenance and man o man does it cost money lol. Is it worth it? Of course it. Curb appeal but most importantly for us to feel happy and cozy with our yard.
Hey Bobby K, I live in southwest Florida. Seems like everyone is moving here these days. We've owned our house for 30+ years and our yard outside the pool cage could definitely use an upgrade. Can you give some tips for those of us in the Florida sun who would like to make our homes outside the pool cage more livable? Our house is on 2 1/2 lots but we don't take advantage of the space. It could be fabulous! Cn you throw some tips our way? Thanks!!
@susan C. Hi Susan. Thank you for the comment! I am definitely a more visual person and would have to see the space. There is still time to enter the "Bobby Help Me Now" Contest ending in a few days. BOBBY HELP ME NOW CONTEST: bobbykdesigns.com/enter-contest
Hi there, how are you? 😃 I just recently moved to a small apartment and when I look down to my (most rentals) neighbors backyard, I feel so sad to see concrete only. I know we can do something to improve and make all 12 backyards green. Would you please help?? Love, Rose Thank you sooooo much!!
Hey tree inspector here. I highly discourage planting the types of trees that you have suggested that are very close to the house. Silver Maple can get very large (60-80ft and I have seen 55 DBH trunk sizes even in an urban area). I would suggest they are at least 15ft or preferred 30ft away from a home or structure. River birch can also get very big and tend to be very messy. Creating a ton of debris in any gutter.
@amber Masloski thank you for the comment. The information I read suggested I could place the silver maple a bit closer but I’m glad you told me. We’ll have to swap those trees out with something a little smaller. In regard to the River birch, BACK OFF! lol! JK! Yes, they drop sticks but man are they pretty. I love them but I do see where you’re coming from. Thank you for watching!!!
@@BobbyKDesigns don't forget, for run of the mill lawn maintenance workers, river birch create cash flow for all the debri they drop. Lol. That's how I see it.
Hi Bobby! Great design, What software are you using? We do a lot of freehand drawing but I want to get away from that and start using software. I have tried a few but haven't found one I like yet.
I would avoid silver maples: those grow quickly and quite large, and have soft wood, which makes them a danger to the house in high winds. We have two giant silver maples in the gardens at our house, planted 50 years ago. When we purchased the house 35 years ago, we didn't think to remove them, and now to remove them would cost over four thousand dollars each.
@Chris Stauffer. I've gotten a few comments on the silver maples. It does sound like they get a little big and another choice would be better. I think I'm going to switch over to a flowering Cherry tree. Thank you for the comment!!!
I definitely agree with Chris. If you live in an older neighborhood, you've experienced how older silver maples are utter trash. They aren't strong (my neighbor had a giant limb hit the roof and a week later, part 2 hit her car. They are ugly trees and their leaves have no fall color, merely shriveling up and falling. Older trees will suck up all the moisture in the ground (though their branches protect the moisture and sun from ever reaching the ground) so don't expect much to grow under them. I had the joy of removing several of these monsters. Good riddance.
@Cindy Stewart. Hey there. I can definitely discuss details with you based on your space. Please go to www.bobbykdesigns.com and sign up on the waitlist and I will reach out to you. Every client is different so giving a specific price is not possible. :)

Can you do a video on your view on Natural Pools/Ponds...Im considering one but here in New Hampshire im not sure if its worth it
I'm a DIYer but I would and have just bought smaller trees,can't afford the bigger ones or I wait for the bigger one to go on sale. You still have your own budget and that was so way out of mine, and doing it over time would help too. Thanks love the design mine would just take longer to grow.
No shame in waiting. Thank you for the comment.❤️
Hey Bobby, thank you for this video it really helps to break down the process. What design program did you use?
Likes the comment, but doesn’t answer the question. Lol
Lol, it must be a secret

Thank you. 👍🏼
I'm hungry, I got a taste for meat 🍖 and potatoes 🍲, and I don't know why 😂
You are amazing and so informative! Do you know of a free app that can be used on a computer that can help the average person try a layout
Thank you! So sweet! I may have to look into that for you guys. I don’t know any yet but I’ll do some digging.
Hey Bobby it is truly good plan 🥰
@Sasmita Panda. Thank you so much for the comment! I had a lot of fun designing this space!

Hey I'm looking for some books to help me with tree identification out here in the mid west. Do you have any suggestions?
@@thedudeguy2356 that definitely seems like an Amber question. @amber Masloski thoughts?
