    2 years after retirement and a bit of traveling, I struggled with what to do with myself. I felt myself spiraling quickly, then I found you and your videos! I became a gardener and in love with all things beautiful! I wake up every morning looking forward to 2 things, spending time with you and standing in my garden. I can't wait each morning to wake up each and every plant in my garden and my heart is healed. Thank you, Laura for bringing me out of the dark and into a gorgeous light! I'll be forever grateful! Thank you too to all who submitted videos. It's so nice to see how similar we all are when we covet the beauty!

      Stacey I too am retired and in my mid seventies. I came across Garden Answer and Laura love for all things beautiful. I have been gardening over the last fifty plus’s years. After building our retirement home twenty years ago and planting my beautiful gardens I now have arthritis in my hands and osteoarthritis in my knees. I still do what I can but it’s so painful and breaks my heart that I can’t garden like I use to. Laura and Aaron and their two beautiful children, oh and I can’t forget Laura’s Mom ( what a beautiful relationship they have) anyway I get so much pleasure from watching their channel it lifts me up everyday to see someone who works is hard and enjoys it to. The satisfaction we get and the fulfilled feeling of accomplishment makes my heart sing.
      I pray you keep adding to Mother Nature as long as you can. We all need a little natural beauty in our lives today.

      @@melissastruxness512 You do not have to be rich for this to change your life. It is all about whatever space you have made your own and how it comes with the experience to get your hands dirty and when you're done you can step back and smile. Overtime it will grow and change and become something even more beautiful then you imagined. You can start out with 1 flower pot. You don't have to be rich to go to the dollar store and get a flower pot. I am far from rich. I have a disability that keeps me from being able to work. But I can climb out of bed in the morning, make myself coffee and watch Laura while I wake up. Then after watching I have the motivation to go and do something that makes me feel good, whatever it may be. You don't have to try to do what she does. You don't need to be rich to pick up a room and make a space look good. This has changed a lot of our lives. I hope you have a wonderful day and find something that makes you smile.

      Hi Melissa I started with a couple of pots and 1 flower bed 1 plant at a time. 1 bag of soil costs 8 dollars at home depo or lowes I usually buy 2 bags per trip I don't grow to her scale I work within my budget. I bought marigolds seeds for 3 dollars and had 2 flats of flowers that grew all summer I grew Salvia from seed only 4 survived but gave me blooms all summer and the bees loved it. I bought 2 supertunias for 7 dollars each at my local nursery and with cuttings from 2 plants created a border and enjoyed my flowers. I'm still building up my garden 1 plant at a time. My most expensive thing was the biotone for me buying the first bag was ouch! But after seeing the results I don't flinch about that anymore I use it sparingly and ut works. Happy planting and I hope you find your middle ground. 🌱🪴🌷🌻🌺

She talks about ground covers for all different types of situations (e.g. sun, shade, lawn alternatives, slopes, walkways, wet areas etc.) and even a section on propagation.

    Laura and Aaron, you do a wonderful job! Perhaps at some point you can produce a video or two on affordable yet fabulous gardens. Many of your projects involve the purchase of large quantities of nursery perennials and shrubs. In this video, for example, the investment some property owners have made in boxwood shrubs alone is quite large (not to mention the person who planted 700 daffodil bulbs). And some homeowners likely relied on paid labor. In reality, many people who are new or single gardeners could never afforded such luxuries, except perhaps investing in additional plants over many years. (That was certainly true for me with my last house.) Most of all, thank you both ever so much for all your terrific efforts! You educate, entertain and delight us with your videos.

      Not that I’m doing anything near there level of expertise, but my gramma gave me some advice when I bought my first house that was super useful and is how Ive acquired almost everything I have as far as landscaping. It’s challenging to be reserved through the season, but if you can wait to make any big investment until it is when things are starting to go dormant box stores and some local nurseries do crazy clearance deals because they no longer look nice to entice sales, but are perfectly viable. I’ve only ever paid full price for trees, because it was really important to me that they started off well and didn’t stunt. . I will buy almost anything perennial from the clearance racks , and if you are willing to buy it ugly and love on it a bit you can find almost any plant for 3-5 bucks. You have to be careful, and look for promising signs like new growth and green wood. Find the houses where the gardeners live, and offer to help split plants. I’ve gotten thousands of dollars worth of really nice bulbs and perennial plants just offering to help for anything they want to clear or give more space too. In my experience they want to share, and older gardeners are so excited for the help. They will also teach about what grows well, and will generally offer stuff that has naturalized and acclimated to your area. Winter sowing perennial flowers or self sowing varieties from seed packs is a big savings if you need to fill space. Takes a couple years to see blooms for some varieties. You can spend money, or you can spend time but you can arrive at a similar result eventually either way. Save receipts, and keep track as best you can so if you aren’t able to save the plant you can use that same money to try again. They won’t replace the plant but most will refund the clearance price if you bring a photo of the dead plant.

      @@jeffreed2659 Very good points overall, although I prefer to give my plant business to good quality local nurseries rather than the big-box stores whenever possible. I'm increasingly growing from seed, too, and sharing the inevitable extra seeds. Jeff, I'm impressed that you offer to help split plants for others. A win-win activity! Happy gardening!

    Ok, Laura, you've lit a fire in me, and now I may tackle my front yard first and back yard second. I don't have a green thumb, but I'm going to reach out for help with our garden centers in the area. I want low maintenance, but color and structure. These are beautiful photos and the last one, in her 70's, wow how inspiring!!! If there's anyone in Eastern NC reading this, you may reach out any time :)

I have followed Lorie since I joined the Garden Answer Groupie's FB page. To say that Laura has inspired so many of us inexperienced gardeners would be a serious understatement. I am loving all of these viewer submissions, and I've lost track of how many times I have re-watched them. Thank you Laura and Aaron for all you do to entertain and educate us.

    Laura, I absolutely love these type of videos. It gives me so much inspiration. It's a lot better than me driving around neighborhoods and slowly creeping/driving by a house to try and see what they have planted and to take notes. LOL! So thank you for providing this safe and less creepy method of seeing how everyone else landscapes. I also love the before and after. And the one lady who provided spring, summer, fall, and a winter shot of her home. Magnifique!!!

It is going to be very long days, especially getting into the back and middle of the beds as I’m going to have to climb into the bed and sit on the ground to dig the holes and plant the plants as I’m predominantly wheelchair bound, occasionally I use a walker if I’m only going a few steps. I’m looking forward to the challenge of being able to achieve something even move beautiful than it is now, and a lot less maintenance.

    Hi Laura and Aaron, I’m wondering why you never show any zone 9+ gardens in these submission videos. Is it because there are not very many submissions or it is just not appealing to your esthetic? It is much harder to have a lot of blooms here in zone 9b - lord knows I struggle here with drought and desert-like desecrating winds, and we have to do a lot more hardscaping and rocks, but I would imagine that some inspiration could be found in the upper digit zones?
