    The gembox foliage is beautiful! The glossiness and curve of the leaves makes it so much more attractive to me than other boxwoods.

    I'm glad you are a little ahead of me weather wise since I'll be trimming my 4 boxwoods in a couple more weeks. It's great to have a refresher, and excellent tip to use the fabric or tarp to easily collect the trimmings. I completely butchered my boxwoods the first time I trimmed them, nearly cried but thankfully they grew out of that first awful trim!

    As always, this was a great video to watch. So informative and also so much fun. I love the way you speed things up for the final video and it would be really interesting for you to post (in the comments or description below) how much time it actually takes you. For those of us who are new to this, knowing how much time to allow would be so very helpful. Thank you and happy Spring

    Good morning and what a fun coffee with Laura video! It is so fun to watch you trim things up and I wonder how your get the nerve to just go after a plant with hedge trimmers. You have such a good eye to be able to see the shape you want and only trim off what you need, I think I would be trimming until it ended up very tiny lol Thanks again for sharing you skill and wonderful ideas about plants with us!!

    for a dead part - if you make a cut in the leader branch at the bottom, it makes it grow after a while so dence. We had totally dad one and after several months it started all new life

  • @peggyekena9966
    @peggyekena9966 5 років тому +1

    Yes, this video was very helpful. I am new to boxwood plants and wasn't quite sure when the best time was for trimming. My temperatures are still doing a roller coaster cycle, with 50-60 and then it cools down to almost 32 degrees. I guess that I will have to wait until the temperature stabilizes. Thanks for the very informative content.

    This would be such a nerve wracking task for me...."Oh, that's uneven, better cut a bit more off....now it's wonky...need to even that side up...oh, where did the boxwood go?" I love that Laura just gets stuck in and doesn't overthink it!

    Love the Boxwoods. I didn't know there were different ones. In the years we have lived here had to replace ours in the front hedge. I went with blooming shrubs and kinda of sorry I did. They haven't been as hardy so have lost a few of them. Great video! See you in the next one.

    @margaretcroft 4 роки тому +1

    I’ve always heard that you need to get down in the center and take out some growth to let air in there? Maybe that’s just here in the south? Loved watching this - going to get out and do mine - have lots in a small courtyard - helpful to see the drop cloths...with the “stay at home” order this year, a good time to clean up the garden! All best wishes

    My husband and I are watching you trim these and are cracking up at MY lack of trimming ability despite me being a dog groomer for 23 YEARS! Maybe if I can ask my boxwoods to wiggle around and jump and I might get a better result.
