    Being Danish myself, I think it is a sheer joy seeing Claus here representing Denmark and Scandinavia. He is super duper!! The tulips he is using look very much like Tulip White Liberstar, a very elegant and exclusive tulip 💗💗💗 Happy December from Denmark 💗💗💗

    I can honestly say that I love watching Claus almost as much as Laura and Aaron. I have been following him on Instagram for a few months now and I think his creativity is as much appreciated as his cheerfulness and - dare I say? - his cuteness! A lovely video and I enjoyed it immensely. Thanks Laura! Your generosity in sharing other gardening creators is admirable. Long may you both continue to inspire and delight. 😊

Please Claus don't change anything, I understood you completely. Love the white decorations all throughout your greenhouse. No need for snow when you have a winter wonderland just outside your door. Rather be making bouquets than shoveling snow! Looking forward to more videos from you, Claus, thank you and blessings to you and your family.

    Wonderful! I'm half Danish and it is so rare to hear a person from Denmark speak even if it is perfect English, it is rare to hear the Danish language spoken. So now, I can now imagine how my Grandfather, who immigrated to USA at age 16 with his family to Nebraska, where he met my Danish grandmother visiting her sister in a nearby town, sounded. They had eleven children, many conceived at Christmas, my Dad the youngest boy, included! This is how beautifully he spoke English. I never met him since he passed away long before I was born. Claus is very special! Thx for sharing!

      I´m Swedish and I would say white is more of a Christmas color then red here 😅 Christmas in Sweden are very clean. Most of us use colors like green, grey and white. Maybe some red in small details. This is ofc different from person to person but I don´t know a single person that use red in their decoration. Maybe some in the older generation 😅

    I do the same, gathering flowers together in my hand rather than one at a time in the vase.
    I love his Christmas tree. For several years I searched for a tree with space between branches, instead of a full tree.
    Finally after my search I found the tree, very much like his only not as tall. Now I can place ornaments throughout the inside of the tree as well as the ends of the branches.
    The white poinsettia is nice and hard to find, they usually look a little on the yellow side or creamy.
    Thank you Laura.
