Roy recently traveled to Charlottesville, Virginia where he designed and installed an 11k sq foot garden at a private residence. Luciano Giubbilei is the master designer for the property and asked Roy to design the area around the pool house. Roy was assisted by landscape architect students from the Univ of Virginia, JW Townsend Landscape, wife Anamaria and Austin Eischeid. In this episode, Roy details the concepts behind his design, the plants he chose and process of installation.

Ah! I worked at Cavano's for a while right out of college! Small world. It was a great experience that gave me a solid foundation of plant knowledge. I'm a home gardener now living in Upstate NY.

Roy, thanks for that great video. Not only are you gifted with plants but also with people. You are such an example manager! I love you straight forward choice of plants. Nothing precious, but they sound like they will converse together with strength and subtleness. I would love to be able to use mulhy but too wet here to… I wish you will show us what it looks like two years from now!

Wow The open scene looks like a painting. Beautiful property. It would be wonderful if you could do a 'follow up' once the plants fill in a bit. Thank you for sharing this lovely project. :)

I used muhly grass in a project but they didn't seem to perennialize well in Zone 6. They slowly faded over a few years. What a shame. It is so ethereal!!
@RoyDiblik

interesting...we'll see how they do.

Looking great! And good to know about the muhly grass. I grew some of the pink flowering variety from seed and need to get it in the ground. I’ll pick well draining spots here in zone 6 and hope for the best this winter.

Thanks, Roy! Beautiful scenery! Here's a little feedback...I appreciate you giving the specific names of the plants but I have no idea what most of them actually look like...would it be possible for you to include pictures of what the mature plant would look like? It would make it easier to picture the design of the gardens.

Nice video! I almost used Muhlenbergia 'White Cloud' as a matrix myself but got scared away by the size, 3-4 feet. Muhlies get really thick and bushy so I'm surprised how close you planted them! I went with Muhlenbergia reverchonii 'Undaunted' which is a bit smaller and I'm excited to see how they turn out as a matrix grass.

Hi Roy, I'm interested in how the beds were prepared. Looks like compost or soil condition might be on the surface pre planting?? many thanks
@RoyDiblik
@RoyDiblik 2 роки тому
Pine bark as leaf mulch was not available. Going forward leaf and stem fall will provide mulch until the plants fill in.
@ericjorgensen8028
@ericjorgensen8028 2 роки тому
@@RoyDiblik Thanks much Roy. It looks like it would break down quickly. I'm always back and forth over mulch... much easier to weed with a scuffle hoe without mulch....somewhat less weeds, somewhat, with mulch. there will always be weeds though, they are like taxes
@gerryfelix5948

Roy, I’d like to piggy back on Eric’s comment and inquire about bed prep, looks to me like wood chip mulch. Looking forward to your response. Gerry
@RoyDiblik
@RoyDiblik 2 роки тому
The owner used pine bark because leaf mulch was not available. Going forward mulch and/or pine bark won't be necessary. The plants own leaf and stem fall will serve as a natural mulch.

How did they prep the beds for that? Did they till and amend the soil? Not a fan of tilling but how would one get the initial ground clear and ready?
