    Lol Russell...he's like "if it fits, it sits" 😂😂

    @pattystrecker1867 Před rokem +41

    I think that's the first time I've heard Russell talk. I guess he's getting more comfortable being in front of the camera! LOL

    Russell, just keeping his tubers warm. He’s such a character.

    @asaliden4584 Před rokem +27

    I always start my sweet peas in inner roll of toilet paper pacer in a plastic container with drain holes. I have regular potting mix in the bottom and seed starting mix on top and I’m that way I can keep them in containers until I can plant them outside. But what I discovered this spring is that I have self seeded sweat peas over wintering in my flower bed!

    ☕️Good day Laura and GA friends. I’m an apartment dweller so no longer enjoy a garden space, so I am very thankful to Laura for all she does to show houseplants and succulents. This is so fun, and the bowl adds a beautiful memory. I hope you all have a wonderful start to a new week. 🌷🌸🌱

  • @BarbsintheGarden
    @BarbsintheGarden Před rokem +4

    You don't have to soak sweetpeas seeds. About 15 years ago I did an experiment where I soaked 1/2 of a pkt and not the other half. They germinated within 2 days of each other and both did equally great. I do love the root trainers from GS. This will be 2nd year using those for me.

  • @kimmy0868
    @kimmy0868 Před rokem +2

    These succulents are giving me ideas for a rock garden! I had one years ago and they all died off due to the tree near them growing. That tree was just cut down and I have beautiful rocks so I can rebuild the garden!

    @jayesbeautifulchaos2244 Před rokem +2

    I’m too big of a “helicopter waterer” that I kill all my succulents and cactus. I am so envious of that gorgeous semp planter! We just got another 8-ish inches of snow last night here in norther Utah. I am so over it this year! We’re almost in April and have gotten more snow than I ever remember in 46years! I love watching your videos, they give so much sunshine to our continuous freezing snowy days here. Thank you for sharing your sunshine with all of us!

    • @jhowardsupporter
      @jhowardsupporter Před rokem

      Sempervivum would lover a helicopter waterer. I won't share the truth about their growing conditions because they run wild. They'll die if you water them like that the whole year but where they come from has a wet season.

    It's not just any cats, Laura, it's these orange tabby cats! I have had spinach growing under a row cover all winter. Today my big orange tabby, Thomas O'Malley, decided to jump on top! Of course he tore a huge hole in the frost blanket and made a mess of things. He's always needy and wanting me to pet him when I'm trying to get work done in the garden. I have two other cats (not orange), but the orange one is always the troublemaker! 😼😼😼

    @donnabraden3126 Před rokem

    Well, Laura, I have to tell you; I have some property I will one day be landscaping and gardening in -which is all new to me. And I’ve been watching you for over a year now. It’s so nice to absorb your information to help me with something so new, and so huge and so complicated! I wanted to point out this would’ve been quite the chore if it hadn’t been for you because all the other garden channels are just not my cup of tea. I guess I just am saying I’ve enjoyed hanging out with you.

  • @kkatmom
    @kkatmom Před rokem

    I love sempervivums! I live in Philadelphia, zone 7a. I have them throughout my garden. They do great here, I haven’t lost any in the winter.
    I’ve purchased many succulents and cacti from Mountain Crest. They are a great company and I’ve always received perfect cuttings or plants.
    All the arrangements were so pretty.
    I love cyclomen (sp?). They are so unique looking. I love the delicate petals.
    Our weather right now is so nice. So many of my perennials are showing their signs of life! I love spring!
    Have a great day everyone!

  • @jgg7377
    @jgg7377 Před rokem +1

    Everything is looking so pretty and colorful in the greenhouse, I can’t not wait until I can get outside and start planting. Your sweet peas are going to perfume the area you plant them. Will you be planting them close to your back door entrance???? So you can enjoy the scent as you pass bye??? Also, have you ever started them in the wet paper towel method and then placed in a baggie???? I can tell much quicker that way if the seed is viable. Usually check it after a couple days and see all the roots popping out. That way not to take up space on little containers and do not have to wait as long to see if it’s good or not! Love your videos!
