Nice garden the song goes really well with it

One of the best investment is owning this wide range and colorful garden. It seems like very gratifying to have this. Please let me know how long have you been maintaining this garden?Could you please share to me your greatest tips on how to incur such very bountiful garden?Nice to hear it the soonest! Thank you.

hello again Brad. we don't get that much rain here. the average is about 14 in a year. sometimes much less. my angel is looking quite good . i'm looking every day for flower buds. its a beautiful pink one. I have four. I did have a yellow one like yours,but something happened to it they are so easy to grow more,, just take a slip off and plant it. I got mine at a beautiful place on our coast called Half Moon Bay . You would love it it's lush & beautiful just like your garden.

Hi Brad, it sometimes gets into the teens, but usually in the high 20's & 30's. but it gets HOT!! up like 105. But I live in the San Joaquin valley where we grow all kinds of fruits & veggies. my home,Stockton growes asparagus I am 80 miles inland from San Francisco. I wish i had a basement!! Your video with the beautiful music is so gorgeous I keep playing it over & over. I love it!!

This is so beautiful,so restful,very inspirational. its my favorite video. I love tropical plants & have many myself. but at age 84 I have slowed down quite a bit. The music in this video was perfect! It really made it special. Do your angel trumpets live thru the winter? I live in central California and our winters are hard on mine.

Woh, I missed this video. So the hibiscus, the bougainvillea et al. all have to be brought indoors once winter comes? So much work!!

I have this video as one of my favorites. Very inspirational. Do you bring your hyacinth in for the winter?

Beautiful! Your garden is very inspirational Brad. I love how you have orchids tucked everywhere :). How big is your yard?

wow wow wow! even more amazing since the first video at dusk!
