Thanks for all the tips. I just completed a front yard turf replacement. I incorporated information I learned from your channel. My new front yard incorporates a gravel path, Kurapia, and a Flame Thrower Redbud. I amended the soil with Biosol, Penetrate, and some gypsum prior to the installation of plants. The strip of ground that runs along the sidewalk paralleling the street is hardpan. I trust my soil amendments will help the new plants thrive. Thank you for sharing your expertise and examples
Fantastic landscape, love all the plants, I've always wanted an olive tree for that Med. look. I think bark would look better but the rock gives a clean low maintenance aesthetic. Will be conserving water thanks to Chip 🐾
Something to keep in mind with rock.. in a hot central valley climate, those rocks are going to absorb the heat and radiate that heat well past sunset. I agree, mulch all the way
I have two questions. Love the lower smaller olive tree by the front door driveway. Is that a certain kind? dwarf or just the way it’s pruned? I saw Kurapia that one of your workers mows. We are thinking of replacing our back yard grass but we have a Jack 🐶that likes to play frisbee. Do you think it could withstand his running and leaping on it? Thanks trying to be more water conscious 😊
That's a young Fruitless Olive tree. Swan Hill is the best known variety of fruitless Olive. They don't get real big, especially if grown as a multi trunk (12' in 10years). I think Kurapia could withstand running and leaping from a dog and people, especially if you mowed it once a month or so.

Incredible! Please feel free to keep us updated! -J&B's
Those olive trees are LIT! Would love to see your designs at night with the lights on.

Chip will be so pleased to hear that!
Just beautiful. Well thought out and executed.
Chip did an amazing job choosing water wise plants! 🐶🌴
He really does know best. 🤷♂😉

Awesome thank you!!!
do you think I can plant one of thos olive trees in Houston?? I love how you include them in many of your projects but I never see them around here.
Yes, I think you can plant Fruitless Olives in Houston Tx. if you don't have temperatures less than 22degrees in Winter.
