      When I was growing up my dad made me get all the DANDELIONS in our 1/4 acre yard. I used an old butter knife and went out and had to dig down to get the roots out. I was a teenager and I felt embarrassed to have to do that. No one in the neighborhood had to do this. I watched the show about the Standing Weed Tool. Wow, I sure wish I had a Tool like that to get the DANDELIONS back in the Day!!! I'm 69 yrs old now but I remember as if it were Yesterday!! I thought the story would give you guys a little chuckle!! Love You Guys!! I'm from Seattle and even though you aren't close to Seattle, I feel connected to you. It's the PNW !!! I'M SOOO HOMESICK!!

    Was watching this just now and heard a strange noise in the audio background.... then it got louder; so I paused... and Lo and Behold... after 70 days of drought/no rain....IT WAS RAINING!!!! We are up in British Columbia,... in the Fraser Valley.... the Berry Capital of Canada... the farmers lost a huge amount of Raspberries due to the never ending heat... and now the Wildfires burning in our Province.... so the sound of rain is ever so lovely... we just opened all our windows... such cool and fresh weather! Hopefully the rain moves towards our "Interior" area, mid province, where it is so badly needed.... Love your video today! So green and lush... what a wonderful Harvest after all your hard work!

    Thank you so much for your videos. It has been the best reprieve from our crazy world of the virus, wild fires, and earthquakes,. I am enjoying our new Limelight Hydrangeas, some Quickfire, and “We Bit Giddy” that I have planted, which I wouldn’t have known about except for your tutorials. I’ve also put in water timers, a new lawn area, built a rock garden, and a pink azalea hedge.
    I’m in The Fraser Valley of British Columbia and it hasn’t rained for about a month. We’ve had three “heat domes” this summer, which is unheard of until now. I’ve set up the water timers so that they go off for an hour each morning and we have a beautiful garden now. I have lived in Vancouver all my life, and I can remember a July where it has been overcast and rained every single day. This year, my Heather and sweet peas didn’t survive due to the extensive heat waves despite my best efforts.
    Thank you so much Laura for your love of the outdoors. All I have to do is water the lawn , do some weeding, or pruning and it makes my day, so to a fellow gardener thank you for sharing!!!

      Try BioAdvance 3 in 1 Systemic for Roses. It's a liquid you mix with water and pour at the base of each rose bush so you are not harming the bees. It's not organic but it does kill off the Japanese Beetles so they don't eat the roses to death. You can apply 3 times in one season 6 weeks apart to the base of the roses. Cut the open blooms when they are fading because the Japanese Beetles love to sleep in the open flower heads. Isn't THAT nice? Eat, sleep and destroy what I want to see and enjoy. Darn pesky bugs.
      In 2020 I had hundreds of Japanese Beetles on each of my 24 shrub rose bushes. I had to apply all 3 times. This year I only had to apply 2. You also have to apply GrubX in the spring to your lawn to kill off the white grubs which eat your grass roots and then turn into Japanese Beetles to mate and start the cycle once again. I'd like to do organic but with the # of Japanese Beetles I had I need a product that will protect the roses until I can cut down the #s of white grubs in the lawn and break the life cycle of the pest without harming the bees.

You could even do some tulips and use their petals for decorating as well!

    We took a family vacation last week from SLC, Utah to the Oregon coast and we were able to stop in Ontario! I had the wonderful pleasure of visiting Andrew Seed and the people working there were so nice and helped me get some cool wind chimes and seeds. I told them I was a big Laura fan and I loved seeing the beautiful garden center I have seen in your videos!
    I do love the way you narrate while you show all the tons of work you get done in the garden-I learn so much!

    All of your gardens are goals!! I love how you do what ever you want in them too. Like flowers in the raised beds and vegetables in the cut flower garden. They feel like little unexpected fun surprises. And I can’t wait to see what the meadow in the orchard will look like.

    Your garden is so beautiful! I love the Collette roses. I plan to plant one this year. I love the way you have flowers mixed in with the garden vegetables. My Mom always planted marigolds in the garden. She also planted a border of zinnias around th outside. She call them “Old Maids”. I love the way you do the narration after the maintenance is done. Love your show!

    Just when I thought I'd spend the day inside, you've (once again) inspired me to get out and get to those little chores I keep putting off. Cleaning up, pruning and tidying a garden is so very satisfying and my little garden appreciates a bit of room to breath - especially during these hot summer months. Your little veggie garden is wonderful, and don't stop putting flowers in it - we all know that marigolds are great in a garden as they keep those nasty pests away from our veggies !!! the roses look so much better with a bit of a "haircut" - and that clematis is a 'Rooguchi' (just in case someone hasn't already mentioned it) - one of my favorities!! thanks for sharing your gardening information and inspiration - hope you & yours have a blessed week !!

When I have a lot to get done in the garden and I’m feeling a little procrastination I always watch your daily video first and it inspires me to get out there and romance the ordinary. So thank you Laura and Aaron, you inspire us in so many unseen ways!

    Love from New Zealand . Your show is so inspiring!! Just noticed when you were pruning the basil, that there is a wee bit of dieback on the conifer in background.
    We had dieback big time here and it was because of Cypress bark weevil.
    It's taken out half the conifer hedge.
    Kindest regards..

    Do you feed the marigolds to your chickens? Marigolds are yummy and make the yolks very orange. They have antioxidants and boost the little clucker's immune system. Also, if left in the coop, they keep the coop free of bugs.
