I bought my first bag of bio tone and now I’m walking around my half acre wondering if I have space for a cut flower garden.
I know I’m not the only one who pretends I’m on Garden Answer when I’m doing any type of planting 😆
So funny! So true!
Hehehe 😂
I don't know about pretending, but my garden has really gotten better since I've been CZcams friends with Aaron and Laura.
Indeed! I stand there looking at a space saying things to my husband like, “no, I think the layering of plants needs to be in place here since we see it from the window. It’s a big area so let’s not forget the seasonal interest as well” I get a look like 🤔 what are you talking about? Lol.
Such great laughter fun and camaraderie here among us Laura gardening fans❣️
Love how positive everyone always is in the comments! Perfect way to start the day - gardening and kind words
Exactly !
I noticed that too! Love it!
Yes. My neighbor and I try to organic garden and we are having issues. So sad.(pests) I mentioned Laura and she watches her. I think my go tos is Laura and MIgardener. Love her.
Laura, you are the queen of all of us retirees, so entertaining way of teaching all the tips and tricks of gardening! 🥰
100%
It’s so welcome 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
And also us 30 (ish) year olds 😂 I can still say that for at least another year! My kids are teenagers so I have time to garden like I’ve always wanted... I have so many ideas for my 5 acres
And for us who began to garden as stress relief during COVID-19 stay home !!...And now I am hooked on flower gardening
And us distance learning teachers who finally got up out of our teaching chairs from the last year-and-a-half and are now playing and working in our home gardens... you are an inspiration to us all!!!!
Every episode is an episode of the never-ending BEST TV show going. Love it!!!
I’m a new subscriber, and I agree! Glad I found this channel. 👍🏻❤️
Isn't it just the best way to start your day ? Gets me inspired before going into the garden
@@vickieyoung7122 I agree. Inspires and motivates me for the day!
She does have a show already
You often make reference to planting the same things each year and are concerned it’s not interesting for those who have been around a while. Please know that we, too, often plant them same things each year and your videos of planting and pruning serve as real life reminders of when we need to do those things!! So please keep it up!! ❤️🌸🌻☺️
I Second this for sure! I rewatch and watch her videos daily to keep up with my garden every year that has been better and better since the previous years because of Laura! She is absolutely wonderful and I love her relatability to us all as I love to see her family (furry ones too) in all her videos!
I totally agree
That's what makes gardening fun.. knowing when to plant
,Rinse and repeat. Lol
I can't do that because I'm in so zone 10... I HV to garden mostly with natives... Gets too hot here for most of those plants... They'll die.
Good Morning Laura & Gardening Friends! I have to say that I do appreciate how Laura shares as much information about the plants as possible & answers questions that we as gardeners may have as she shares. I’ve learned so much from this channel and for that I’m Thankful. 🪴👏🏼💛
Well said...
I’m so thankful💚🙏🏻💚
Have a great day gardening friends!
Me also learnt so much
Also love and appreciate the content that removes the intimidating factors for irrigation, auger using etc., I don't rely on anyone now, merrily get on with it 💜
Thank you for all the cool views you give us ... I can't imagine how long it took you to drive to the new property when you stopped and set up a camera at several different areas so we could watch you drive away ... and the view through your climbing roses? 😍 thanks again for all you and the team do.. Oh and beautiful shrubs! I learned of the lemony lace elderberry from you last year. Found 2 on sale. Planted one, gave one to a dear friend, and we have been LOVING watching them grow.
~Leanne, NC 7B
@@patriciacole8773 not always. She goes out a lot herself and has talked about setting up the camera to get different shots because she knows its fun for us to see
Oh wow, these are definitely plants I’m going to see if I can find similar ones to here in Australia
BTW, those extra camera angles with the flowers, we appreciate so much Laura. Thank You
I was going to say the same thing, Sarah! Beautiful shots and I loved the music, too. So totally relaxing. 💞🌼
And the Emmy goes to Laura & Aaron for a life time passionate gardening.
She did it again. I’m supposed to be working, instead I’m tuned into this channel. I don’t have a garden, a yard, a patch or balcony. I have 35 house plants. I love you Laura & family.
I have taken up, among many, your habit of placing things before I plant them and looking at them for a few days. Has helped me tremendously.
Living on the East Coast the only sumac I've ever heard of was poison sumac!
The wild sumac in the Midwest can cause severe allergic reactions as well. I have seen domesticated versions planted in commercial areas though.
I was wondering if it was the same!!
😂 yes! I’m still traumatized from it’s removal out of my woodland garden last year. What a mess, not to mention the rash.
@@planttasticcookinggardenin1561 we are new to the Midwest and my daughter currently has it all over her face
@@jessicaarmstrong782 oh no! So sorry to hear that! She has my sympathy, I’m really allergic too.
Thank you for the lovely shots while driving. Especially the view in beginning through the climbing roses! Your "team" sets up beautiful shots, lol!!!! #hardwork
Your new property always makes me smile- you have such vision. To me it looks like gardening on the moon. Very inspiring.
Laura and Aaron, you guys are the only ones that I watch the ads all the way through for you. 😁 I love watching your videos so much! Every other channel... Skip! 😂🤣 Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge, projects, your kindness, and your beautiful family. 🥰
Pretty shot of Laura driving the gator in the distance as captured through the Colette rose arbor.
Yes that shot through the roses was just lovely and dreamy. It was nice to see longer photoshots than we usually see. That means Laura wasn't running back to get the camera and set it up again, that was really funny to find out.
Your gardens' vistas and vignettes are killing me here Laura. I'm beginning to see a lot of it reach a level of maturity where views are well framed (I guess I should say). Well done!! Taking notes....
I love the music in this video! So peaceful, just how gardening is. It erases our troubles and invites serenity into our lives, even if it's just while pulling those darned weeds! Haha 😄 Thank you for filling our mornings with your knowledge, kindness and grace Laura!
Laura I love how you're taking a blank canvas and planting a live portrait for us that will endure the test of time for many generations.😊
Don't ever move. Just think about how beautiful this new space will become, by the time you have grandchildren. Oh it comes fast, my 2 year old granddaughter gardens with me, and it was just yesterday her mom was so little, like your babies. So very fast.
Did anyone else hear “i want this to be very heavenly planted” yes Laura, I am sure it will be 😍😍 🌱
I know you hear this all the time but thank you for your videos. You have said that your goal is to create an oasis in the desert. This channel is like an oasis for me on the internet. I really needed to relax and your videos help me feel grounded.
Love the placement of the camera! Thank you for sharing your vistas with us ! I know that takes much more time and effort.😃
Thanks so much for letting me wake up to you each day Laura! I was lost a couple of years ago and then found you and your beautiful garden. Now my garden is growing and gorgeous and my soul is fed! THANK YOU! Will there be a new name for the "new property" like maybe the Park?
Laura, you and Aaron are going to look back on these videos and be totally shocked! It's going to be GORGEOUS!
Thank y'all for sharing!
I paused the video and placed an order for the sumac as soon as you showed the photo of the fall color. Absolutely stunning!
I look forward to watching the growth of these plants and the possibility of new wild life. What a wonderful place for your children to grow. ❤️
When I started watching a year ago. I was In a deep and dark place, And realised how soothing and calming your videos are. It was with the mailtime where Aaron said something inappropriate and you said something to him back that I realised how great your Channel is. Your respect for people, your plants, your animals etc. It's just so inspiring.
The title included the word 'planting sumac' and my immediate thought was, "Why in the world would you actually plant sumac?" I have been battling sumac invaders from a neighbor's yard for years! With Sumac on one side of my yard and Virginia Creeper invaders on the other it's a constant battle!
Laura & Aaron I want to thank you for introducing to Espoma. This year my gardens are flourishing as never before, seeing what the products you recommend and the results are a added bonus to all your wonderful videos!🌸🌿🌳🌲
Laura’s gone “wild”…. Never thought you’d grow anything that could just be so free form. So happy for you that you get to just let the space be what it wants to be. So much freedom in that!!!! Question, you said that they don’t like clay soils. I live in north Texas with black clay soil. Could you amend the hole and plant them? Thanks Laura, I know how much hard work is it to film and plant. Appreciate you taking the time to slow it down and show us all the steps. I’ve learned so much from you. Everybody thinks I’m an expert in the family cuz all my plants grow and thrive. And my beds look so nice since I’ve started planting in odd numbers instead of onesies!!!! It’s all because of garden answer!!!
Just 1 min into the video and noticing Laura's nail color matching perfectly with the plant. 😃
It's so cool to see the progression of this space. I cant wait to see how different it looks when it's all filled in! Love your videos ♡☕🌷☕🌷☕🌷 #coffeeandgardenanswer
I have a feeling it will never be all filled in - she's a gardener, after all.
When grass starts growing, it's gonna look dramatically better.
My favorite hashtag ☕🎍🌺🌹🌻🌼🌷!
The area is looking so different. We can see the beauty taking shape and so looking forward to your next step. Please keep showing us what you do.
i really like how the Orchard GArden is coming along.
Usually I want everything Laura plants. Never ever will I go looking for a sumac (will be mowing suckers down later today).
Congrats on the second gator! Now each of the kids can ride with mom or dad in the future.
"New property" should be christened "Parkland". I can see it with grass paths and trees full grown. And your production quality is top notch, long shots of Laura and Gator headed out into the field.. just wonderful!
Thanks, Laura! 🌱You're a Sweetie!!🍬 By the way, I love the extra shots 🎬 of you we see through the flowers & trees as you're driving towards your planting destination! 📽
Great Job!🌳🌲 Don't Stop!😁🎥👋🏼
You were killin me on the drive out with the scenery..roses etc. 😍😍😍 Just beautiful!!
Before I went to bed last night I thought, "I'm going to check CZcams and see if anyone posted a new DIY." What do I see when he came up? A new Q/A video of you guys. I thought, "Holy cow, they usually don't post this late." So now I will have check every night to make sure I don't miss a video...lol. You were talking about living where the humidity is high and I thought, Laura and Aaron would stroke out if you lived in Tennessee. When I go out to work in my flower beds, mow the lawn,trim limbs on the trees, or just sit on our deck, I feel like I drenched myself in a bucket of water from sweating so much. BUT... I would rather be hot than cold. Cold hurts this old woman's bones.
Just want to take the time to appreciate all the camera angles you had. I know you were walking/driving back and forth to set those up. Good “storytelling” as Aaron said. Thank you to you guys (including Ken) for all the quality videos you put out everyday!
Bless your heart, Laura. You're such a super heroine. What a beautiful wildlife sanctuary will also result from all your efforts! See the quail, they're getting the "word" out. Hope you add a little ground bubbler fountain so they can have an oasis to drink water... love the progress.
The seed of a tree is not planted for the enjoyment of the planter - it is an act of love done by a caretaker of the future.
Hi Laura! I loved the views of you going out to your new property, especially the view through the Colette roses on the arbor! Thank you for taking the time to do this. Those shrubs will be so pretty out there. Thank you so much for sharing!
Those elderberry shrubs are so pretty. Now I want one. The sumacs are really glorious in the fall. I am anxious to watch this new area develop into your wonderful vision.
Laura, I admire your vision! I hope we get to see the end results of all your hard work in a few years! I'll keep watching!
For anyone looking for an elderberry for a small garden, I just planted a black tower elderberry. They’re a columnar elderberry that’s supposed to only get three feet wide. Fingers crossed it will obey the tag and lend some great vertical interest to my tiny patch of a front garden.
Good Morning Garden Answer & Friends from Traverse City, Michigan. I absolutely am in love with the garden shots as Laura was driving the gator to the cutflower property with the new add ins. Stunning view of the arbor....I just love it all. Your hardwork & love to every plant & bloom is showing their gratitude back
Traverse City. Great area. Daughter is a figure skater and always competes each summer at Center arena.
Greetings from Gaylord and zone 4!
@@melodykemp9685 Gaylord also a nice area. Went to a wedding at Tree Tops years ago.
The new property is going to be so glorious once everything is full grown! When you’re filming videos like this, it would be super helpful to show pictures in the screen of what all the trees will look like when full grown ( as you point them out). I am still a fairly new gardener and don’t really know what a lot of them look like. I could watch your videos all day long! 💚
Every morning in our house
Husband: What are you watching?
Me: My Garden Girl
Husband: What's she doing today?
but if he see's Laura with well really any DeWalt tools (but the bigger the better) it's "Oh..... what's she got there, I need one of those"
Too funny😂
Funny, my husband asks who I’m watching or he says ‘who watch the garden lady’ me: yes so hush 🤫 however my husband is terrified I’m going to start using his power tools. I’ve said I need my own and on my Christmas list, I’ve asked for an Auger and a power drill of my own 😄😄😄
Hi from the UK X
Same here! Lol! 😂
😂😂 I can totally relate to that! My husband loves his tools, gadgets, and anything techie, so I’m trying to get him excited about installing a drip system for me by appealing to his interests.
I told my husband about the awesome auger and he said it sounded like a waste of a good drill. Small yards really don’t need an auger I guess.
I sometimes need to ask my husband to dig a hole for me as we have rocky soil, he would sigh and huff, then I came up with a great idea, I said I need an auger so I can dig on my own and don't have to ask you for help, his eyes lit up, two days later we have an auger and a husband who loves to dig holes. 😂
I see the other houses around this property. How wonderful would it be to live looking at your GARDENS!
I can only imagine that your children and grandchildren will be so proud to tell the stories of your work and see the documentation of your homestead.
I was really worries when we moved to Poland I may not be able to watch for a bit until we got our cell phone situation figured out. I am happy that is not the case! Best show ever!
Laura I'm looking forward to seeing your new land evolve and also to see the kids grow older as well as you and Erin, your like a family away from family :) gods blessings to you all.
P.s. if ever possible it would be cool to see a video of you and your sis to
I was amazed that I found Proven Winners plants in my local garden center - in Turku, Southwest Finland! Naturally I went nuts, I could barely believe my eyes. This is the first season ever for me to have a small garden and the very first shrub that I bought was Black Lace Elderberry, looking forward to watch it grow! :)
I love how your new land is coming together. Always enjoy the videos!
I was thinking the same thing when I saw those birds:) Whenever I plant a space up, I immediately notice the birds enjoying it, too. So fun!
I love using branches of sumac berries in my winter arrangements. Have you ever used them for yours?
And those black lace elderberries! So beautiful! 😍
So wish i could grow the elderberry black lace here...its gorgeous. I do have our native elderberry in my cottage garden.
I love the trees you chose. I can’t grow these in my zone but that okay... I’m still learning so much.
And I want to say that was a gorgeous shot (at 5:35) where we are looking through the rose arbor and you’re driving in the background. Just so serene and beautiful and romantic. Simply perfect.
I agree, so beautiful
No matter how many times you say “don’t let the reputation of the older varieties scare you...” I would NEVER be able to plant a sumac on my own. I pull sooooo many of them up daily I can’t imagine getting over the trauma of that to actually plant one on purpose! 🤣
I can't either. I think they look like big weeds!
They’re invasive
Can you give us an update on your maple trees along the driveway? I remember you guys staking a few and I’m curious to see how they’re doing. I’m getting ready to stake a couple of mine.
My every morning coffee video
Thanks so much for adjusting the volume of the music. Much better
Love how the Elderberries really do look like Japanese maples! I use them in my garden for that same reason! Can't wait to see the fall colour on the Sumacs!
Swooning over the Sumacs... I'd have to have 3 clumps of 3. So so classy and perfect leaves for beauty of rustling in the wind!
We have a gorgeous Tiger Eye Sumac in a huge pot on our patio. We’ve had it probably five years and plant herbs around the bottom of it. I’ve been thrilled with how it looks.
Happy Friday Eve! Beautiful footage of you driving the gator to the planting site, especially the shot through the arbor of roses. Is this the type of elderberry you can make elderberry syrup from the berries?🥰
Google says yes
A pollinator is needed, like PW Instant Karma
She forgot the most important fact about elderberries,their edible lol
Looks like a perfect spot for elderberry (and you mentioned serviceberry nearby), with all those huge trees beyond that white fence I can see a lot of birds enjoying the berries and living and nesting in those trees! Beautiful way to help wildlife!
I love watching your garden evolve, there's always something new to look at. So much inspiration in the new area and tranquility in the more established areas. Thank you for sharing.
is everyone as obsessed with the new space as i am!?? when does the grass seed go in?
I love seeing this all come together. It just keeps getting better and better
I just read an article and in the article the “Grumpy Gardener” mentioned several plants one should simply leave at the nursery. Anyways this made me think--you and Aaron should do a video where you discuss plants with bad reputations and perhaps “good” varieties of those plants.
Oh how I wish you were my neighbor !! So much beauty to see!! 💕💕
She says as she blows away at the end! :)
How dreamy and beautiful! Creating a history and a story with your trees .Even the birds love 💕 it 🍃
Awww two I have, yeah! I have taken suckers from Sumac to start new trees and yes it works. I have 2 of the elderbetties; addicted to elderberries of many types, and I lift it to be a tree instead of shrub and its gorgeous, Love both of these so so much.
I love the Scotch Pine that you planted. We always had a Scotch Pine tree for Christmas. My Mom always said it was the true Christmas tree.
I’m with ya girl! Nothing more rewarding than landscaping and planting. I retired last year and I’m obsessed! All I think about is what I’m planting next! Where was Russell?🤣
When I read the title and saw Sumac I immediately thought “OH NO!!!! Why why why would you want them. Don’t do it!!” ... but then heard you say they are less aggressive spreader. I 🤞🏻🤞🏻 you are correct! I have no reason to doubt your expertise but my yard had the older species of Sumac and we removed them all a couple of years ago. We still have Sumac that pops up all over the yard and flower bed. I just can’t get rid of it!!! Prior to removing them, I agree, they had a gorgeous fall display and come spring the robins here in WI would eat the left over fermented berries. Watching them fly around drunk really was another show. 😆 None the less they are my nemesis!!
I’ve always wanted to plant Sumac! I can’t wait to see how they do. Do you like smoke trees? I planted two and love the color and texture next to my green elderberry. I planted three black lace elderberry two years ago for a privacy screen… they are amazing! I love how I can whack them back here and there and they don’t care. Love love everything you do! Just across the border in ID👩🌾🙋♀️
Laura, I admire your vision! I’m excited to see updates.
Love both those shrubs, we have a borrowed landscape that includes a gorgeous, huge Sumac, such lovely color. Also I really enjoyed the music choice today 🎼
We definitely need some detailed drone footage!! So much has happened in the last 2wks!! Well the last year but so much and it's exciting.
Oh, they will be so pretty! Gorgeous!💜💜🤗🤗
Laura! Show us those beautiful white daisies you whizzed by in the Gator! Stunning!
wow.. cannot wait to watch this area grow! i love that you have captured the plantings of this area on video: what a legacy for your children and grandchildren (if the property stays in the family) to see how it all started... it's hard to imagine having a property this big when my entire house and property could practically fit in your barn, hahaha... it's going to be amazing!!! i'm excited!! thanks for the video!!
Just a glimpse of the roses and the west side makes me ask when is the next garden tour? I love your gardens so much! Need to see around chicken coup, behind green house, a peek of what’s in the green house, 14 containers along drive, gardens at back door, garden along sidewalk with circle walk, how cutting garden is growing on and what’s in the high tunnels. We all live somewhat vicariously through you and your garden and I need a stroll around. Benjamin is a sweet, sweet boy and you are not the only one who realizes it. His spontaneous “wonderful” was absolutely precious. I truly enjoy every video. Thank you and Aaron for sharing with us.
Thank you for a really good video on both shrubs I learn so much from you your presentation is brilliant regards from the South East Coast of Ireland 🇮🇪😀😊❤
Those pink climbing roses so pretty!
That shot through the arbor at 5:34 was amazing!! And when you said "shrubbery" all I thought was Monty Python 🤣🤣
So excited to watch this area grow!
I could spend all day in your cold frame. So many beautiful plants. Would love a walk thru . Just curious what's all in there.
I know right? I LOVE her tunnel, very inspiring with all the space and beautiful plants!
Your property is so so amazing. I am truly happy for you and can’t wait to see what it will look like when they grow and bloom.
Laura you and Aaron have a great eye for planting many trees to make a wonderful forest in and area that will be a forest in 10 years. The Trees that have leaves brings a place for birds to make nest, and everygreen trees have nice branches house the Aanes year around humming birds threw the winter months. If you feed them 1 cup+ 1 Tablespoon Sugar with 1 Qt. Water they will stay alive in your trees for the winter. Please keep up all your Video's as I love seeing your work and many fliwers you plant in yard an cut flower garden.
Hi Laura. As always I love everything you do. When watching The trees that you planted in the dirt field I thought of something. I thought it’s going to look gorgeous and I thought the more Christmas/winter like trees should be planted so they could be seen. For example along the edges and fences. It will be beautiful no matter what. Thanks for being who you are. More baby please if possible. 🤗🥰🌹🌼🌷🌻🌹🌼🌷🌻👍
Happy thirsty Thursday! Coffee ready!☕️☕️☕️
This is mind blowing to me. Sumac is something no one I know plants. It's something every one I'vet ever known wants to get rid of.
The elderberries make a good tonic when winter colds and flus hit. They sucker very much too.
Wow Laura your roses on your arch so beautiful. And your new area is starting to slowly fill up with some beautiful trees and plants. Can't wait for winter time when some of them change colours so beautiful. Cant wait.
