Lovely garden and you did a great job of letting them talk with only a little input to encourage conversation
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
What a sweet husband! I can’t think of a better gift… Then to come out and see a bunch of empty pots you had, full of tulips!🌷🌷
You just gave me tears in my eyes! You’re sweet to remember that…and he really is a wonderful husband!
So true! Thanks for visiting and commenting.
52 years what a wonderful design
Thank you Carol!
We agree!
I sooo LOVE this kind of video!!! Beautiful gardens give me so much inspiration, plus a little kick in the butt to go work in my own garden beds!! 😁
So glad you liked it and it inspired you! Thanks for watching.
Hello Janet, I’m so happy you liked the video. Garden Gate Magazine produces such beautiful videos and we were so honored to be a part of one. It’s great that you are inspired to work in your garden. I always need a little inspiration too!
I don’t say this about a lot of gardens but they did they a great job. My style of gardening. I like to call it a formal cottage.
Thanks for sharing!
Just a lovely garden and lovely homeowners!
We agree! It was so great to work with them. Southern hospitality!
Linda your kind words mean so much. Thank you!
I'm not finished watching yet but I LOVE the editing and post-production! Did y'all notice the plant descriptions as they popped up? Did you see the Pomeranian? I love a little bit of humor and whimsy and this made my day!
Great! Glad you noticed the Pomeranian. Thank for watching and commenting.
Absolutely beautiful garden! My garden is in the very early stages, at almost sixty Years old, i’m just now getting into gardening. I’m in North Texas, 7B. I have a lot to learn, but now that I have some extra time to focus on gardening I’m just loving it. I’m also a watercolor artist and find it’s such a struggle trying to do both art and yard. I love to paint and to garden so much that I’m not sure how to manage my time and keep my house clean, animals happy and husband fed. Theirs just not enough hours in a day. You art work is superb, and your garden it’s picture perfect.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Good luck in your gardening journey!
Sheila! You and I have so much in common. You just described my life on every point. And you are right..there are not enough hours in the day! A while back, I just decided to focus on my faith, my husband, my dog, my art and my garden. In that order. House cleaning barely makes the list! Thank you so much for watching and for the sweet compliments. We are so excited about all of this! Seems like a dream!
@@carolepoolegallery1981I completely agree, my faith is also on the top of my list, then my family/ fur babies. I raised four boys and my youngest is a marine. My eyes opened up to a whole new world when my nest became empty. My boys were our entire life, it was all about them. Instead of dirt bike trails, shooting areas and basketball hoops, I started a real yard, with pretty flowers and walking paths. I learned that I love to mow, and trim hedges and to edge the lawn, to cut out grass and start a flowerbed. We have ten acres, not all our land will end up being used for gardens, but again I try and never say never. Thank you for you sweet words, and reminding me that it’s ok if it’s not all done, the important things are being cared for,
God bless!
Me too
That is so true - I really enjoy designing and working in my garden. I even learned how to do proper compost. Every year is a new experience, so exciting to try new things and see how it all turns out. There is nothing better than grabbing my first cup of coffee and taking a walk in the garden.
I agree with Jim about cannas. I started off with three plants and within a few years I had about an eight foot row packed with beautiful bright yellow cannas with solid dark green leaves. I talked to and watered them everyday. I would pray as I watered them. They brought me such peace.
Kindred spirits. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely gorgeous! So beautiful! Thanks for sharing. You should be so proud.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you! We feel so honored!
I’ve watched this video 3 times. The garden design and maintenance are beautiful. 🌷
Wow, thank you!
Today I'm back to watch for my third or fourth time. It's so hot in Georgia and I needed some inspiration, which this always gives me! So tranquil and beautiful!!!
How beautiful! I can see your love of gardening and each other! You are blessed! Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with the rest of us! 🥰🥰
So nice of you. Thanks for watching.
Melinda, what a dear sweet thing to say. We really appreciate it. We were happy to share and had such a good time making the tour video!
Absolutely GORGEOUS! Such an inspiration! Thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you for watching Sherry! So happy you enjoyed it!
Beautifully designed!

Thank you so much Kristopher!
What a slice of heaven, so perfectly beautiful!!
It really is. Thanks for watching.
So happy you like it! What a beautiful way to describe it. Thank you!
Yes indeed!
I loved the husband surprising his wife with the tulips. Tulips were my Mom’s favorite flower and when she got mostly bedridden, I planted tulips where she could see them from the bedroom window
That is so sweet 🌷
Amazing garden beauty! I admire the work done. Thank you for sharing a great video👍🌻💙
So nice of you. Thanks for visiting.
Thank you so much for dropping by. We really appreciate it and happy to share the video.
Absolutely gorgeous

Gorgeous garden, what a fortunate couple to share this interest into their later years.
We agree! Thanks for watching.
What a sweet thing to say Maggie. It really is nice and keeps us focused. We feel so honored to appear in such a lovely magazine. Thank you for watching.
Jim's right about people, builders, + landscape. Beautiful garden.
Yes, so knowledgeable and passionate. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Up here in TN with the heavy rains, clay soil & drought summers, we've had really good luck with Darlow's Enigma white roses.
They aren't as showy, but have profuse, simple blooms & are very fragrant as well as being extremely hardy.
I only fertilize them in the spring & they explode all spring, summer & most of fall here in 7a.
Thanks for the tip.
Such a beautiful and sweet little slice of heaven! 🧡❤️💜💙💚
Thank you so much!
It really is!
One of best home garden like mine with little cost no chemicals, organic open garden for neighbors enjoy too.
linda Dorough Dixon here...I really enjoyed the show on the Pools gardens.. I think they have so much to add to the Roswell neighborhood City ....He is a fine home builder ...
thanks for watching and commenting. Carole and Jim are such nice people.
Thank you so much Linda! We appreciate your kind worlds!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden .
Thanks for visiting and commenting. Jim and Carole have done a wonderful job with their garden.
Thank you so much Diane! We loved sharing!
What a beautiful garden and serene seating areas. But Carole, your artwork is wonderful! I’ll have to see if I can find your details so that I can have you paint our home! I love that you celebrated your 50th wedding anniversary right in your garden. I can’t think of a more ideal setting! Congratulations!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
Wow. There are many gardens on YT, but it's no wonder that Jim and Carole's garden won an award. The view from the patio is outstanding. I have to admit I'm a boxwood addict and my favourite shrub/flower is hydrangea, so this has been a real inspiration. I'm way up and over in Vancouver Canada, so my zone is a little colder which allows for the those two plants to winter well. Thank you for sharing. It is such a pleasure to see.😌
Thank you so much Suzette! Seems like we have a lot in common!
They are a great couple! Working together to create a lovely place!
Yes they are! So glad we got to feature all their hard work.
Katherine, what a sweet thing to say! We really do love working together and we definitely love our little place!
Oh My Goodness! My dream garden.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Absolutely Beautiful Garden! I'm sure I would never leave the patio ... Thank you for sharing your stunning garden, I wish I had your talent ... 🌹🌺🌻🌷

Thank you so much!
Oh I love this! I’ve been looking at my small backyard & visualizing an old school classic garden. We already have some crepe myrtle trees, a small magnolia, river birch, & an evergreen. I added a little garden bench under the two crepe myrtles. In the spring/summer it looks so gorgeous with the gardenia bushes. But I want to plant more things so it will not only feel magical in the spring or summer, but year round. I am no gardener so feeling very stuck. This is nice inspiration.
Wonderful! We're glad you found some inspiration! Thanks for watching and commenting.
That sounds perfect!
Well they're the next town over from me!😁 Would love to see a garden winner that has vegetable beds; or a poteger garden.
Maybe this year we will have a submittal veggies. Thanks for watching.
You live near Roswell? That’s great! We’ll have to encourage the vegetable gardens!
Absolute stunning! Love it! 😍🤩

Yep!! Wonder why that is!
It happens!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Possibly, the most beautiful home garden I have ever seen. Reading the article and doing the math with the dimensions cited there for the backyard (70 feet X 80 feet) comes out to 1/8 acre. Is that possible?
Seems about right. Thanks for watching and commenting.
What a beautiful garden!. I had a yard in Dunwoody i loved to embellish.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting.
Such a beautiful garden ❤ and a lovely conversation ☺️ thank you so so much for this amazing tour.

I just watched this video for the the 5th time. Your garden is stunning and I love how well you both work together. Everything you chose compliments the yard so perfectly. My husband and I are currently designing our 1.5 acre garden from scratch. May I ask what type of ground cover is in the yard? Or is it grass? If so, what type of grass? Thank you in advance. 😊
I think I will try to make a border with pine needles just like theirs. 😍
Great! It looks so clean and tidy.
That's great Laura! It's an easy process!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Wow I really live the green borders and what they did inside. Jim talked about the holliys in the back. Is it really hollys all the way along their garden? I've never seen them grow like that. I mean they have to be about 16 feet high :O
Love love your beautiful Garden. Thanks ❤❤❤
