Laura and Aaron, I love how sweet little Samantha gives all of the statues and animals kisses when she sees them, she's absolutely precious. Laura, your amaryllis collecting compulsion seems to be rubbing off on Monica, I love her giggle. The house plants all look wonderful potted up and nestled into their new homes. It's always a delight to go with you guys to your parent's garden center, they are so warm and welcoming. Have a great week! ~Margie🤗
Samantha Grace is so precious and a sweetheart! It is so much fun to see the children growing and the smile on your Dad's face at seeing his grandchildren is worth a zillion dollars. No only do we get marvelous gardening advice and inspiration, but also sweet moments like this. Love your channel.
This is one of the best videos ever the mixture of plant, kids and how to plant amaryllis review was truly great for those addicted to Garden Answer and those who may be new to the Garden Answer world.👍👍
So loved❤ seeing Samantha Grace talking so much. She is a honey bun! How has Monica adjusted to her move and working at the garden center? I think she has such a fun and witty sense of humor. More Monicas please!
Fun day! I don’t think you are aware of how wonderful the bowl you planted in is. It’s from England’s famous Kew Gardens & very costly. Whoever sent it to you was very generous. The entire collection is lovely. I have many & love them.
Laura, the smile on your face as you walk into the Hartley is the exact reason we watch your videos and love you! You brighten my day and inspire me to think out of my creative box! You have a beautiful family and your kiddos are growing way too fast! Many blessing to you all!! ❤
Loved seeing Samantha walking around and talking. She was adorable with her tiny pig and kissing the statues. Love your plant haul, the amaryllis will look so pretty with the branch trellises.
This was just flat out drool worthy! So many beautiful plants. And I'd just about fly across the country to baby sit that sweet little Samantha Grace. She is such a little doll.
First of all thank you for starting my morning off seeing Benjamin and Samantha giving each other hugs. I automatically started smiling seeing them together and I absolutely love Samantha's outfit!! To see her going through the store and hugging thing's, well let's just say I got misty eyes from watching her do this. God has blessed you and Aaron with two precious children. Now to you Laura. When you say you're going down to the garden center to pickup a couple of house plants,that to means maybe 3-4 plants. So when you say " I'm going to go to garden center and pick out a couple of plants" we now know that you will come home with close to 10 or more plants...lol. Just watching you look for the plants makes me crack up. You would think that you had found a treasure by the way you carry-on about the plant. Which is totally cool ,cause you love plants. I would be that way if I would walk into a store that sold different kinds of cakes, pies, displays of chocolate or seeing beautiful Christmas ornaments. If I had bought plants like you just did they would be dead by next week. You even got Monica to buy a plant. I love seeing you and your family together ❤️ !! I bet your dad is a softie. Like a giant teddy bear. I would love to see when your whole family gets together!! I can just see and hear all the fun and laughter you guys have together. I miss those days with my family. Thank you for sharing your family with us. It always makes me feel happy to see you all together.
Oh so cute! Samantha is so adorable, touching the birds and kissing the pretty statues, playing with the little pig, such a wonderful age and she is so different than Benjamin....so much fun to watch them grow! Kids get so excited, we sometimes forget to get excited about things especially whe the kids are all grown up! Great reminder to see yours! Beautiful plants! 🤗🤗💞💞🤗🤗
Just yesterday I was looking at greenhouse plants and highlighted plants and thinking.... for someone who says she's not into houseplants. I thought boy those look pretty great in background. Then today more. Amazing. Your teaching us so much young lady.
Everything’s so beautiful! Laura, you are so gifted. I love the way you potted the amaryllises! The Harley is to die for and your family is nothing but love!❤
The pot w/ the amaryllis & ivy is an interesting container. But the grid addition creates such interest of its own w/ the little buds along each branch. Really pretty!
Great video, I loved the variety today. I am blown away by your parents store! There are so many beautiful things to look at and the variety of house and garden plants is incredible. I love seeing your family in the videos, you guys are truly blessed to be so close, logistically and emotionally. My siblings all moved out of state, both of my parents are gone, my daughter is grown and my one grandson is now 16. Watching your videos reminds me of the fun times my family had together . . . the good old days. Thank you!!
Samantha Grace is getting so big. It is so precious to see her reaction to her surroundings; her enjoyment of all the different things that catch her attention. So sweet.
What a joyful video! Loved seeing the children at the garden center. Benjamin is getting so tall and little Samantha Grace is such a cutie. Really enjoyed seeing her and her tiny little piggy and kissing all the angel statues. Children are such a joy at that age when they’re beginning to talk. Nice to see the proud grandparents and auntie interacting with them too. Such a nice family. The only thing that would’ve made it better is if your brother and his family had stopped by. 🥰💖🦋🕊
I loved everything about this video! Samantha Grace! I could watch her all day❤. And as you were potting things up I was thinking, “I hope you put a bunch of these in the Hartley!” And you did! Beautiful! I love that curly ficus. I love how you planted up the amaryllis. Just stellar, as always. 😊 can you tell I’m a gushing, unapologetic fan? 😂 I’ve been watching you since your townhouse beginnings and you’ve become a special part of my days. I muddle through Saturday, but only because there’s a recap video coming soon. Thank you for sharing your joy, enthusiasm, expertise, selflessness, family, and boundless energy with us. I was an enthusiastic energized gardener myself for many years but have had mobility challenges of late that have greatly curtailed my activity and your videos give a tremendous vicarious boost to my life! I want you to know how you’ve deeply blessed my life and during this season of thanksgiving, I count you and Garden Answer among my blessings! Much love and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your precious family❣️❣️❣️
Love watching the children they are so sweet. And really enjoy watching you and plants flowers anything with outside inside, with regular plants. Have a wonderful week.
Watching Samantha kiss St. Francis and the angels, just warmed my heart. Absolutely precious. Thank you for sharing your babies and families with us. ♡
Watching Samantha hug and kiss the statues brought back such a sweet but costly memory of taking our first granddaughter to a nursery when she was Samantha's age. She, too, went from one angel to another kissing and caressing each one until she leaned on one and knocked it over. She burst into tears as its head rolled across the floor. Of course, I ended up purchasing it and my husband repaired it with auto body cement. We call it our "Fallen Angel" and it still holds a special place in our gardens (and memories) 25 years later. What a joy to have the children make cameo appearances in your videos. Also, I just loved the pussy willow trellis idea - a great take away for me from this video.
Oh my word...... Samantha kissing all of the statues......and just being so sweet and adorable!!! So cute! All of the plants looked gorgeous when you were done. I just love this "channel."
What a joy watching Samatha Grace. She is such a cutie. Seeing the kids and Russell and cheddar and the rest of the gang in your videos makes a great start to my day. Happy Holidays to you all and I look forward to seeing your Christmas videos of decorating. Many blessings always
Awwwww little Benjamin and Samantha Grace giving hugs to each other at the beginning of the video priceless. Samantha Grace is so cute and giving all the statue's kisses so precious. So many beautiful plants❤️
Hi! I absolutely appreciate how you edit your videos, the end-product is so beautiful and easy to watch. It never bores, the music choices are great, and, btw, the way you portray all of your family is just heart warming! Keep up the good work, I am sure you are a bright spot not just in my life.
Good morning Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸 So nice to see your whole family. Samantha is so confident and knows what she wants you to see. So cute. Thanks for all of your inspiration ❤️ Happy Gardening Everyone, 💓👩🌾👍
When growing orchids I always put a coffee filter in the bottom to hold the mix in the container. Consequently I've carried that over to houseplants so the soil doesn't wash out the drain hole....
The restocking/facing of the display after taking the amaryllis box gave me a chuckle!😂Exactly something I’d do! It’s almost automatic when I’m shopping as I worked in grocery and retail for many years and had to stock shelves for a living😉
Has Monica ever thought about starting her own UA-cam channel about cooking, crafting and such? She has a great personality like yours Laura! I would definitely subscribe and watch!
Makes me want to go down to the garden center and shop for plants. That pink variegated philodendron is stunning! They all are, but I’ve never seen that variety before! 🌲🌲🌲
Love how we got to see your Dad's soft side when Samantha Grace entered the store! And always sweet to see Monica & your Mom. I can feel everyone's growing excitement for the holidays! Those Little Prince houseplants were a fab addition & perfectly packed! Can't wait to see your amaryllis in their glory!
I absolutely loved this video. As someone who has downsized & now in an apartment, I don’t have a garden, but I have lots & lots of house plants. You gave me some wonderful ideas in this episode. Thank you for sharing your talents & your wonderful family with us. You are truly blessed. ❤
Andrews is the most beautiful little garden center. It is so beautifully set up but most astounding to me, every time, is how darn healthy the plants are. The plants I can purchase near me are always stressed and half dying.
I can’t believe how fast she’s growing up. Both Benjamin and Samantha are becoming little big people right before our eyes. I have a few house plants in my home but after touring the garden center, it makes me want to fill the house with house plants. I just have to figure out if I want that task of caring for so many inside.
Sweet children! 💙💖 Dear Samantha Grace has such a sense of wonder at this age. She’s going to love this blessed Christmas season! Thank you for the amaryllis ideas! Can’t wait to try the trellis ideas and the moss does add a complete touch! Blessings to you and your family! ❤️🎄❤️
Christmas is gonna be SO fun with the kids this year!! So magical! Christmas really is for kids and so much more enjoyable to see their wonder and delight!!!💚🌲💚🌲💚
Isn't it a joy to watch them? Christmas does mean so much to kids. Their openness and sense of wonder lets in all the joy. Hopefully, we mature into adults who can see the beautiful depths of the season and love it in a different way.
This was so much fun! The kids are adorable! I love how you incorporated the stems into the amaryllis! And I just placed an order (the day of this video) to Little Prince and received the plants a few days later! I ordered through your link and the plants arrived just like you said, all wrapped up, heat pad and all! I was very impressed and the plants are beautiful! I plan to give some as a gift. Thank Laura and Little Prince! 🪴🐸👑
Hi love seeing the children taking in the shopping your plant haul was a good one. Those amaryllis gorgeous colors to choose from. My amaryllis only flower once when I buy them and after that just the leaves. I live in the Caribbean where its sunny all year except for rainy days. Thanks for sharing
I had to rush around and bring a bunch of plants inside last night and this morning I went outside to discover my draecana was forgotten! She made it through, though, and now lives in a warm spot in my living room where she looks like she should have been all along. I would love to have a studio space like yours - it's so gorgeous - but that will have to wait. I am so bad with houseplants because I forget to water them (even with phone reminders), but I keep trying to do better.
Amaryllis time! I saved a few of the salmon and pink ones and will plant after Christmas to carry me through the month of February when I get the winter blues. I love your family outings to the family garden center. ❤
I like seeing the different plants the companies send you through the mail. They send some neat looking plants that I have never seen before. I like watching you plant up those plants, it gives me a new way to look at how much a pot can make the plant look more beautiful.
I am watching your past videos trying to catch up and to continue to learn from you. You are an incredible “teacher” and inspiration to me. My gardens are slowly evolving and getting thanks to all the things I learn from you. Thank you for always inspiring me! Your children are a joy to see, each with their own sweet character. They are so precious💖. Blessings to you💖💖💖
I cannot believe how clever you are with the crown structures you put on top of the amaryllis!!! Sooo cool. And Samantha!!! Can you say “LOVE BUG”!!!! Soooo cute.
I think the begonia at 20:45 is called a Tiger Kitten Begonia. I was gifted one years ago and love the look of the leaves! So much fun to go “shopping with you and your family! Now I’m inspired to go get some amaryllis!
❤️ Samantha ❤️ bless your beautiful soul. My Samantha is 18 and I do miss these trips. She has reminded me to look at the world with the wonder of a child. Cos I tell you it's far more pleasant than as an adult 😜
The one with the round leaves and white variegation is called Breynia, possibly the Snow Bush variety. I just saw it at my local garden center and made note of it too. Definitely on my Christmas list!
I think everybody watching this video has to say and that your sweet little daughter is the prettiest flower in the whole shop 😍 and your son is such a sweetheart...so well-behaved. You are very blessed family 🙏 thanks for sharing yourselves with us 😘
Thank you for your generosity in sharing your family, and precious Samantha grace kissing all the animals, angels, and various statues. Adorable. Now I am in the mood for houseplants, though with Christmas coming the house fills up! I did just buy a new amaryllis bulb, so will get that potted up!
My goodness The Hindo Rope is amazing. It would be Thrilling to have. Love the New Plant U had delivered with the PINK in the leafs is gorgeous. And another loved one is the last one. Love it and Love all of u. The kids are so precious.
What a beautiful video! From start to finish! I love the end where the music played and you placed your creations. I can tell you truly love what you do! So special! ❤️ Oh, and Samantha Grace is just so precious!
Good morning Garden Answer family!!!! This is a great video. Love seeing your precious children and parents and let's not forget Monica. Hugs from N.C..❤️
I love seeing all things new through a child’s eye and the joy in the ordinary for us but oh so exciting for them. It is one of my most favorite things. Thanks Laura you hooked me in on the Amaryllis,even your sister isn’t immune to your charms! We know how you feel Monica ❤😂
Video suggestion: could you post a video on how to re-stake a huge pothos? The stake in my 3 year old plant broke at soil level and I need to add an additional or change out the current stake…and that will lead to pruning, repotting, etc😳😬! Thank you for all that you and your family/friends do!!
All the houseplants look wonderful, that Hartley is all full of plants...it looks cozy and wonderful. Samantha is so sweet, checking out all the birds and statues. You can tell she loves the outdoors, she will be just like her mom. Laura, what happened to your last houseplant haul in September? Do we get an update?
That was a Calathea Musaica and I rescued one from someone on FB that was struggling and now it's huge!! By far one of my favorite plants! My understanding is its Trademarked so no propagating it.
This video was such an inspiration, between your beautiful family to the beautiful plants. I have never seen some of these house plants before. Thanks for the link and please continue being such a highlight of my day!!
Thank you so much for posting as frequently as you do. I can’t imagine how much effort you, Arron, and your families put into making sure you have the time to film, but I so appreciate the level of effort you put into this for us! Your videos are what I look forward to every morning when trying to start the day in a place of zen and inspiration. Much love. ❤
And the amount of work it takes to make such quality videos with the different views you give us is more than most know. I don’t know how much editing your editor (Ken?) does for you, but kudos to him as well. On my way to go get amaryllis!!!
Ok! This has to be said! As a professional makeup artist for over 30 year's. Your eyes are very pretty! They way you do your eye makeup makes them pop!! Nice job! 👏 👏 love watching your kids gets so excited to see your parents! ❤️ ps... love all your new plant 🪴 children!
Smantha is so cute! What a doll! :-). And Benjamin is getting so big! What a great big brother he is! I bought the same plant group you’ve received from Little Prince 😅 Can’t wait to receive it! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!
Good Morning and happy Monday! So enjoyed todays houseplant refresh. Most of all the Strawberry Begonia. This plant holds a special memory for me. My grandparents were avid gardeners in southern Louisiana. Many of our houseplants here in Oklahoma naturalize in the far south. Years ago I asked for a start of the Strawberry Begonia and was told that it would not survive the OK winters. It has survived, thrived, moved three times and has been shared with friends and plant lovers. It has naturalized and covers the northern foundation of our home. I see it pop up in planters and across the lawn in other beds. Love the airy flowers in the spring and the delicate leaves that can reach saucer size. Thanks for the inspiration you bring to our lives.
Ha! ha! Its a good job you hadn't gone out to buy supper and came back with plants instead! Love the Hibiscus, and your beautiful Vinca, such lovely colours. Happy Gardening.
LOVE when you all go to the Garden Center!! And Samantha Grace, could she be any cuter!! From her little kisses for all the statues and her little squeal! Thanks for the tour and the smiles, what a great way to start my day!!
Love your 3 tiered plant stand and plants in the Hartley!! Do you remember where you bought the 3 tiered stand? Thanks for including us in your daily work. We know it is SO MUCH MORE WORK setting up cameras and getting all the "shots" you need. We appreciate you very much! May God overwhelm you and your family with blessings!
Laura and Aaron, I love how sweet little Samantha gives all of the statues and animals kisses when she sees them, she's absolutely precious. Laura, your amaryllis collecting compulsion seems to be rubbing off on Monica, I love her giggle. The house plants all look wonderful potted up and nestled into their new homes. It's always a delight to go with you guys to your parent's garden center, they are so warm and welcoming. Have a great week! ~Margie🤗

What a loving child, Samantha kissing all the statues❤️❤️❤️
Lol and god bless Laura…. I would be yelling about germs or something. She’s so laid back and just lets them be kids.
Fun day! I don’t think you are aware of how wonderful the bowl you planted in is. It’s from England’s famous Kew Gardens & very costly. Whoever sent it to you was very generous. The entire collection is lovely. I have many & love them.
She wasn’t just kissing any type of statue. She was kissing the angel statues. Look closely. I did.
Laura, the smile on your face as you walk into the Hartley is the exact reason we watch your videos and love you! You brighten my day and inspire me to think out of my creative box! You have a beautiful family and your kiddos are growing way too fast! Many blessing to you all!! ❤
Gorgeous arrangement with the willow branches!!! Sophisticated and rustic together, love it!!! 💕 And we could watch Samantha all day!!!! 😁🫶🏻
Awwww your kids hugging at the beginning is sooo cute!
Loved seeing Samantha walking around and talking. She was adorable with her tiny pig and kissing the statues.
Love your plant haul, the amaryllis will look so pretty with the branch trellises.

I think it’s time to adopt a young family that has nowhere to go for the holidays! Lots of kids out there that need a grandma.
I love the idea of using the branches for supports in the amaryllis. Beautiful. Samantha is the cutest.
Samantha Grace is getting so big. It is so precious to see her reaction to her surroundings; her enjoyment of all the different things that catch her attention. So sweet.

Big HUGS--such a delightful way to start the video! Good for the heart & soul!!! ❤❤❤
Love watching the children they are so sweet. And really enjoy watching you and plants flowers anything with outside inside, with regular plants. Have a wonderful week.
Awwwww sweet Samantha kissing all the statues ❤❤❤she is the cutest❤❤
Watching Samantha kiss St. Francis and the angels, just warmed my heart. Absolutely precious. Thank you for sharing your babies and families with us. ♡
The kids are so cute together ❤️

The Pussywillow branches looked like they had Christmas lights on them😊❤
Samantha Grace steals the show ❤❤❤❤and everyone’s hearts
So much recognition seeing your mom having lunch, sitting by her desk. That’s the life of a hard working person with a business of her own.💪💚
Love the Pink Princess Philodendron! We groww a lot of those and yours has some real nice variegation!🪴
Hi! I absolutely appreciate how you edit your videos, the end-product is so beautiful and easy to watch. It never bores, the music choices are great, and, btw, the way you portray all of your family is just heart warming! Keep up the good work, I am sure you are a bright spot not just in my life.
Good morning Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸
So nice to see your whole family. Samantha is so confident and knows what she wants you to see. So cute.
Thanks for all of your inspiration ❤️
Happy Gardening Everyone, 💓👩🌾👍
Love watching your videos with Samantha Grace and Benjamin you make it so special by including all the family your plants are so pretty

Makes me want to go down to the garden center and shop for plants. That pink variegated philodendron is stunning! They all are, but I’ve never seen that variety before! 🌲🌲🌲
Samantha sounds so much like Benjamin. So precious! ❤
That amaryllis, willow, cloche, trellis..... thingy genius stunning wow 😳💯!
Laura! You sound exactly like me in a greenhouse: "isn't that beautiful?!" hehe & little Samantha Grace kissing all the angels is just the tops 😘
I also love watching the Hartley fill up with plants! ✌🏻🙏🏼❤️
Samantha is a little wee darling. You are magnificent in your choices of plants & creating
beautiful displaces.
Love how we got to see your Dad's soft side when Samantha Grace entered the store! And always sweet to see Monica & your Mom. I can feel everyone's growing excitement for the holidays! Those Little Prince houseplants were a fab addition & perfectly packed! Can't wait to see your amaryllis in their glory!

Dear Samantha Grace has such a sense of wonder at this age. She’s going to love this blessed Christmas season!
Thank you for the amaryllis ideas! Can’t wait to try the trellis ideas and the moss does add a complete touch! Blessings to you and your family! ❤️🎄❤️
Christmas is gonna be SO fun with the kids this year!! So magical! Christmas really is for kids and so much more enjoyable to see their wonder and delight!!!💚🌲💚🌲💚
Isn't it a joy to watch them? Christmas does mean so much to kids. Their openness and sense of wonder lets in all the joy.
Hopefully, we mature into adults who can see the beautiful depths of the season and love it in a different way.
This was so much fun! The kids are adorable! I love how you incorporated the stems into the amaryllis!

Both kids are just wonderful! You are doing an excellent job of mamaing, Mama!

You have such a beautiful family ! 💗

Amaryllis time! I saved a few of the salmon and pink ones and will plant after Christmas to carry me through the month of February when I get the winter blues. I love your family outings to the family garden center. ❤
I thought for sure the ivy would end up in the piano parlor, but it’s so beautiful in the Hartley too. 👏
I like seeing the different plants the companies send you through the mail. They send some neat looking plants that I have never seen before. I like watching you plant up those plants, it gives me a new way to look at how much a pot can make the plant look more beautiful.
I am watching your past videos trying to catch up and to continue to learn from you. You are an incredible “teacher” and inspiration to me. My gardens are slowly evolving and getting thanks to all the things I learn from you. Thank you for always inspiring me! Your children are a joy to see, each with their own sweet character. They are so precious💖. Blessings to you💖💖💖
This was what I needed to get me in the Holiday spirit. You are truly a blessing to us all❤ Gorgeous plants in perfect pots!
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship where are you from?
So lovely, Laura! As always, you do the most creative, beautiful arrangements!🩵🪴🪴🪴

I cannot believe how clever you are with the crown structures you put on top of the amaryllis!!! Sooo cool.
And Samantha!!! Can you say “LOVE BUG”!!!! Soooo cute.
I think the begonia at 20:45 is called a Tiger Kitten Begonia. I was gifted one years ago and love the look of the leaves! So much fun to go “shopping with you and your family! Now I’m inspired to go get some amaryllis!
Those pink Princess plants go for hundreds of dollars! That’s crazy they gave her one for free! Pays to be the Queen! ❤
❤️ Samantha ❤️ bless your beautiful soul.
My Samantha is 18 and I do miss these trips. She has reminded me to look at the world with the wonder of a child. Cos I tell you it's far more pleasant than as an adult 😜
Beautiful centerpiece on the table in the Hartley🥰
How precious was Samantha kissing all of the statues, absolutely darling!!
How very fortunate you are Laura. This video made my heart smile ❤

The one with the round leaves and white variegation is called Breynia, possibly the Snow Bush variety. I just saw it at my local garden center and made note of it too. Definitely on my Christmas list!
I think everybody watching this video has to say and that your sweet little daughter is the prettiest flower in the whole shop 😍 and your son is such a sweetheart...so well-behaved. You are very blessed family 🙏 thanks for sharing yourselves with us 😘
I will never get there but your whole world is a dream! Thanks for working so hard to facilitate my dreams! ✌🏻🙏🏼❤️
I could watch Samantha all day. She is so precious, I love her excitement over everything!
Awww! What a nice day you all had! Samantha Grace is just precious! 💕
Thanks for the smiles! 💜 🥀
Thank you for your generosity in sharing your family, and precious Samantha grace kissing all the animals, angels, and various statues. Adorable. Now I am in the mood for houseplants, though with Christmas coming the house fills up! I did just buy a new amaryllis bulb, so will get that potted up!
My goodness The Hindo Rope is amazing. It would be Thrilling to have. Love the New Plant U had delivered with the PINK in the leafs is gorgeous. And another loved one is the last one. Love it and Love all of u. The kids are so precious.
What a beautiful video! From start to finish! I love the end where the music played and you placed your creations. I can tell you truly love what you do! So special! ❤️ Oh, and Samantha Grace is just so precious!
Good morning Garden Answer family!!!! This is a great video. Love seeing your precious children and parents and let's not forget Monica. Hugs from N.C..❤️
I love seeing all things new through a child’s eye and the joy in the ordinary for us but oh so exciting for them. It is one of my most favorite things.
Thanks Laura you hooked me in on the Amaryllis,even your sister isn’t immune to your charms! We know how you feel Monica ❤😂
My absolute favorite is the one Laura made first with the three white amaryllis bulbs, gorgeous! 🍁🍂🍁🦃💚🙃
Video suggestion: could you post a video on how to re-stake a huge pothos? The stake in my 3 year old plant broke at soil level and I need to add an additional or change out the current stake…and that will lead to pruning, repotting, etc😳😬! Thank you for all that you and your family/friends do!!
All the houseplants look wonderful, that Hartley is all full of plants...it looks cozy and wonderful.
Samantha is so sweet, checking out all the birds and statues. You can tell she loves the outdoors, she will be just like her mom.
Laura, what happened to your last houseplant haul in September? Do we get an update?
That was a Calathea Musaica and I rescued one from someone on FB that was struggling and now it's huge!! By far one of my favorite plants! My understanding is its Trademarked so no propagating it.
Samantha is so precious!
This video was such an inspiration, between your beautiful family to the beautiful plants. I have never seen some of these house plants before. Thanks for the link and please continue being such a highlight of my day!!
You have a beautiful collection of plants in the Hartley now. The 3 tier plant stand is a great addition in there.
Thank you so much for posting as frequently as you do. I can’t imagine how much effort you, Arron, and your families put into making sure you have the time to film, but I so appreciate the level of effort you put into this for us! Your videos are what I look forward to every morning when trying to start the day in a place of zen and inspiration. Much love. ❤
And the amount of work it takes to make such quality videos with the different views you give us is more than most know. I don’t know how much editing your editor (Ken?) does for you, but kudos to him as well. On my way to go get amaryllis!!!
Ok! This has to be said! As a professional makeup artist for over 30 year's. Your eyes are very pretty! They way you do your eye makeup makes them pop!! Nice job! 👏 👏 love watching your kids gets so excited to see your parents! ❤️ ps... love all your new plant 🪴 children!
Smantha is so cute! What a doll! :-). And Benjamin is getting so big! What a great big brother he is! I bought the same plant group you’ve received from Little Prince 😅 Can’t wait to receive it! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!
So pretty, love all the pots you used Samantha Grace is so sweet and innocent!! How excited she is down at the nursery!! Thanks for sharing!
I have to admit, I got a little choked up at the beauty all around as Laura placed the plants. Such care and a blessed gift.
Such fun watching the kids. My grands and great grands are older so I don't have little ones right now.
My youngest grand is 11, but the oldest ones are getting in the neighborhood to restart. Baited breath and all that. :)
Good Morning and happy Monday! So enjoyed todays houseplant refresh. Most of all the Strawberry Begonia. This plant holds a special memory for me. My grandparents were avid gardeners in southern Louisiana. Many of our houseplants here in Oklahoma naturalize in the far south. Years ago I asked for a start of the Strawberry Begonia and was told that it would not survive the OK winters. It has survived, thrived, moved three times and has been shared with friends and plant lovers. It has naturalized and covers the northern foundation of our home. I see it pop up in planters and across the lawn in other beds. Love the airy flowers in the spring and the delicate leaves that can reach saucer size. Thanks for the inspiration you bring to our lives.
Awe... Oh my goodness! How sweet is that?🥰 Hi, Laura!🥰
Ha! ha! Its a good job you hadn't gone out to buy supper and came back with plants instead! Love the Hibiscus, and your beautiful Vinca, such lovely colours. Happy Gardening.
LOVE when you all go to the Garden Center!! And Samantha Grace, could she be any cuter!! From her little kisses for all the statues and her little squeal! Thanks for the tour and the smiles, what a great way to start my day!!
Laura, such unique and creative ways to give those gorgeous amaryllis a place to grow. Will you show how they bloom?⭐️
Oh my goodness Samantha Grace cuteness overload! She is so adorable! Beautiful plants, fun video!
Love your 3 tiered plant stand and plants in the Hartley!! Do you remember where you bought the 3 tiered stand? Thanks for including us in your daily work. We know it is SO MUCH MORE WORK setting up cameras and getting all the "shots" you need. We appreciate you very much! May God overwhelm you and your family with blessings!
