Awesome job explaining. I'm a newer homeowner and I have done 0 landscaping. Have a tree like that in my front yard and wanted to do a tree ring. Super helpful. I think I want to put some perennials to fill in that space between the ring and tree...we'll see how that goes.

Great job explaining the process. I have done this before but for a new person you made it easy with your step by step process. Thanks

[hokiejane]

Wow, this is just what I was looking for. I was a little afraid to undertake it myself, but I'll do exactly like you say. Thanks!!!!

I would use a "T" that I make with 2x6 to pack in rocks before laying those bricks. That way its a stable level base and won't sink over time.

Since the wood mulch deteriorates in 1-2 years, the bricks will all settle down to the ground. May as well save the mulch for the center.
I see you left space in the middle around the tree which was not covered with landscaping fabric. This is what most people get wrong, I think. The tree needs water and the fabric is often hydrophobic. Leaving a hole is smart. If you don't do that, the tree roots will all come to the surface of the lawn for their water. Then you get break your mower on the tree roots.
Instead of fabric though you can just dig 4-6" down. Leave the top 2" exposed to air. Oxygen will prevent root growth into the area naturally. But the mulch will be deep enough to prevent weeds.

I am making a tree ring because nature basically made my tree bed with bare dirt and roots under the tree. I am here to learn how to level the area on where the pavestones will go. Also I am a super fan of rubber mulch nuggets instead of wood mulch. It basically levels itself, is a very good weed preventer so fabric is really not necessary, and best of all you don't have to replenish it any where near as often as wood mulch.

Thank you sweetheart this is exactly what I was looking for awesome view. Awesome.

I believe this is the best way to do a tree ring. It will be easier to adjust as the tree grows.

[TexasRosary]

Love it! You are very good at explanations and I appreciate the visuals on how these should look. I will watch this again so I can get the measuring part down. Just wondering how thick the bricks are.

Nice job, but I would include some fresh top soil before covering with mulch.

Props for this video! Just purchased a home and would like to be more hands on with DIYs. I have two trees in the front yard. You made the steps real easy . New sub man!

[skyhigoodies]

Great video man. I'm new to the landscaping world. I cut out a huge bush I my front yard. Turned out that the trunk was completely hollow. I decided to put a red brick tree in and I'm going to use the hollow stump as a kind of natural "flower pot." I love the choice of stone. Looks great in your yard!

[nickle]

Thanks for the idea! Looks freaking nice and simple!!! A+++

[elmormonteiro]

That was a great job. It makes me confident to do it myself.
Thanks.

[treefiddy]

Looks good man. Will eventually do this in my yard, but with two layers and maybe putting some concrete adhesive between the two layers. Liked the video a lot, straight to the point. Only criticism is if adding music the background to put it really low so we can hear your information better.

[triadgates]

Great video, and thanks for linking the material!

[MemphisMower]

Very good job. May guess Is you charged double supplies used. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Not sure about using mulch as a base. Paver base or sand would be more stable.

[karmani]

I would just stop it at 1:15 it looks perfect already

[dianayelito]

Why no quick concrete? If the mulch underneath washes it won’t the pavers sink?
