I know you’ve discussed not having a property this size of you didn’t have your UA-cam channel, but let me say …. The Lord knew the world needed a little “Hey guys how’s it going,” in our day. Thank you for all you do to inspire us!! Love the new additions. The transformation of your property is phenomenal. Be blessed! 🪴🌸
Perfectly said Jodie! Dittos from Mi!
Amen! Her channel is such a blessing to so many! ✝️✨💕
Honeybees and us cannot believe our luck . For the first ones is sustenance, food ,but for us is food for the soul.
Yes! To what Suzanne said- double ditto from MI!! 👋🏼😊
Right!!! They are such a joy to watch. Love this channel! 🥰❤️🙏
“Ew there’s a spider web on the back and I touched it” *proceeds to get right in there and pull it apart with bare fingers* 🤣 you kill me Laura!
bahaha I screamed ew, and had to show my whole family...they all laughed too
so grossss was thinking the same hahaha
So GROSS! I had to skip forward...
"I forgot to put biotone in all the holes!" If I had a dollar for everytime I have said that, I wouldn't be that much richer because my garden is not that big and and I don't plant as much, but it has definitely happened to me several times😅. Love your videos guys keep up the good work 👏 🙌 👍
You've said it enough to buy a bag of Biotone?
😁

After all this gardening time, and all of these plants, it is lovely to hear Laura still sigh and take moments to love her garden and the views.
I thought, I wonder why she's not putting bio tone in the holes? Lol beautiful additions. 😍
I thought the same thing! I laughed when she spotted the bags in the back of the Gator 😆
LOL, I noticed too! That is funny. I always forget too.
I noticed that, too😆. I ALSO noticed that my girl seldom wears gloves. Why dear??
I used to go bare hands cause I love the feel of the soil on my hands……butta not any more. Got tired of my hands getting cut up🪴🌱🙄
I noticed too but thought maybe because they’re annuals.
Honestly, i was like it's this not needed anymore or did she forget lol
I have to say this has been one of my favorite videos. I loved the clean up/dead heading part. And the pruning. The running discussion you do of how, what and why is so enlightening. I’m so excited to see you adding ground cover. And the “oh my gosh I forgot the Biotone” was exactly me. Thanks so much.
Thank you for filming so much of this in “real time” it’s nice to just follow along with you in your projects.
I really liked having no music in this video…. I like the silence and regular gardening noises!
Hi Laura! I’m a new gardener without a clue but…because I have similar plants in my garden I know exactly what to do and when to do it simply by the immense amount of education from your videos. Thank you! Throughout this pandemic I’ve gained so much knowledge and… PLANT THERAPY IS REAL☺️
I love it when you don't put music but just let us hear all the real sounds
I love the peace and quiet of a garden. If there's music I have to turn down the volume.
Yes, same
@@Gladys7477 I turn off the volume for music
The climbing roses with the clematis and the weeping willow in the background 😍 I just love watching your channel ❤️
I was thinking about sending you an idea to use ground cover on the west side. You wanted something low in front of the urns. I turn you on today and you say you want ground cover plants. Crazy.
What a satisfying episode Laura! Everything is filling in so nicely and you've added some pretty exciting perennials! That vista of you planting in front of the North Pole arbs and looking straight ahead into the vegetable garden and the focal point of the urn in the center was classic! Thanks so much for this video!
I am literally yelling at the screen “Laura, you forgot the Bio-tone!” Had to laugh at the look on your face when you remembered. I look forward to your videos every morning. They keep me motivated to work in own flower beds. I have adopted many of your techniques especially using augers for planting - my old arthritic knees are thanking you. I really like the variety in the videos from planting new plants, garden tours, helping our at the garden center to antiquing with your mom. Keep those wonderful videos coming!!!!
Me too
Laura you give us the strength to just cut away at a plant, so that it has ability to put on new growth. Thanks for the encouragement!
Pruning, thinning and deadheading are all essential. It's better for the plant anyway.
I really admire the courage you must have to touch those eggs!!!! I would have jumped up to the new property... 😁
I would have put a For Sale sign up on my house - spiders are just so gross.
Bugs don't freak me out. I think they're fascinating. I would just be worried about getting bit. Everyone calls me to kill bugs for them lol. I actually kept a "pet" giant orb spider on my patio. I used to watch her every day. I was sad when she left.

I love how you added some maintenance footage, a bit of a mini garden update/tour in a planting video! Thanks for such a thoughtful/well rounded video! :)
I watch a lot of vlogs and this one is the most consistent, timely and a good length. This is one reason why it’s so successful. Other vlogs I watch about other topics are spotty in downloading and length.
I wish Aaron would take a bigger role as he is more knowledgeable in the nuts and bolts of the operation.
Totally agree I think they are great
Im loving that your channel is all about botanicals, gardening, thrifting, and now Arachnology! You are the best!😊
This was such a relatable video. I think we all have unplanned flats and those random onsies and twosies we couldn’t help but pickup. To spend a day focusing on those unplanned plants is a great idea. And I think we all were asking about the bio-tone in the beginning. Great job Laura!
I love watching how your garden has evolved over the years, It’s gorgeous. Can’t wait to see what you plant around the Hartley 😃
Hello Grace how are you doing
I love how when Benjamin brings Laura something, she never says "I don't need that, will you please put that back" She just takes it says thank you! I have always done this with my son for this reason... Ive learned that they just want to help- just let them feel like they've done that! It only takes a second to put back what theyve brought you! I do the same in the grocery store! I let my son put random things in the cart, instead of arguing with him over whether we need it or not, I just put it back when he's not looking... when he's a little older I can work on teaching him the things we jeed vs. the things we dont...
Thank you for reminding us of the plant names where the "new additions" are being placed. When shopping at my local garden center, it is exciting to recognize a plant and have some understanding of its growth habit, beautiful flowers or unique foliage. 🌺
Nice to see the gardens grow year to year. I love the new gardens but seeing your older gardens also given me such pleasure.
When you really take care of your plant's it shows how beautiful it looks
Love when you take us along for some basic maintenance and just popping random things in the ground. Everything is looking so pretty.
Love that you are part of the “DIN DIN” club “Do It Now, Do It Now” deadheading and cleanup needed doing and you just did it. 🎉
I really enjoy watching you. You create a garden worth a royale seal of approval except that your garden is created with the knowledge of your hands and the love in your heart for you, your family and us, the world behind the screen to enjoy. Thank you for letting us be part of your beautiful world.
I was watching thinking, "Laura isn't putting any Biotone in the holes..." Oh my gosh. Yes, sometimes you just forget even though it's just there with the other supplies! 🤭
LAURA!! The way you picked that egg sack apart, your street cred went up with me considerably. Tough chick! lol
That is my favorite view in your garden: those roses over the arch with the weeping willow in the background and the arbs to the left. Such a romantic scene.
That was the coolest thing when you were tossing the little plants towards the holes and some of them went right in. My brain imagined a little cartoon version of the plants being sentient and going "weeee!" Into their new homes 🤣
All your hard work has been so so worth it. The gardens are beautiful! Please do more videos on maintenance.
Thank you for filming this in “real time” it’s nice to just follow along with you in your projects
I really enjoy the slowed down videos. It’s easier to see in detail what you’re doing, and a more relaxing pace too.
This video makes it very clear just how much rain you’ve gotten!! Usually when you auger there is a dusty plume that comes up, now you’ve got clumpy soil! Crazy!
Love your beautiful gardens and watching how quickly you get things done. I would love to see a video montage of all the plants you grew from seed, where you planted them in the gardens, and how they look at maturity.
LOVED this video, Laura!!! I enjoy watching your videos before I get outside to start my gardening day, which is mostly maintenance. This was the perfect combo of short tours and planting, my favorites!!!
I've been avoiding folding laundry, well because I prefer to be out in the garden. So watching you garden while folding laundry makes the task way less tedious. My family thanks you...
You live the life I have dreamed of!!! Your contribution and knowledge is wonderful!
I love the music background, your choices are always so good too. Everything looking beautiful
I love ajuga! Growing up, our neighbor across the street had big mounds of it in her flower beds and it was just gorgeous. I remember asking her what it was when I was about 10 years old. As with so many other beautiful plants, I also decided then and there to have some in my garden. Thanks for the reminder to get moving on that. ~ Lisa
I am always amazed watching Aaron spread seed or lawn fertilizer...Looks like he doubles recommended amount...Result is a thick lawn carpet...Wow!
Good morning everyone! Have a great Monday!
Seeing you plant one of something made me feel better. I keep thinking drifts and then I go to the garden center and see something and buy one.
I'm pretty much a drift of one planter myself 🤣
Some stuff you plant literally makes me do a spittake and scream "NOOOOO!!!! DON'T DO IT!"
I am constantly in battle with ajuga, lamium, and virginia creeper. To watch you plant it on purpose gives me palpitations. 😆
I know, right! I fight with Virginia creeper constantly because it has grown into the tree canopy. The ajuga has spread into the lawn. It’s a battle!
My Mom has warned me about the lamium. HaHa I just planted a full flat of it.
I’m silently shouting too! I’m in zone 6 like GA. I have resisted all of these given invasive nature here. I can only hope mileage varies greatly between GA’s high desert/alkaline zone 6 vs my acidic northeast zone 6.
I think her dry alkaline soil limits their spread. In our acidic temperate rainforest, I see ajuga in ditches, roadsides, etc. where it's escaped gardens. Sadly, I see lamium having taken root in wooded areas in parks.
@@carolwarmoth8744 Girl, I found Virginia Creeper growing through a crack in the window sill in my office. A mess.
Southern Maryland, zone 7a
I can't thank you enough for all of the perennial and shrub maintenance tips. It helps me to know when and what do be doing in my own garden. Happy gardening.
The ajuga’s growth habit is to flower off a rosette, send off all the new stolons to create new rosettes which will root and prepare for next year’s flowers and stolons. The current rosette will then die off. That’s how ajuga spreads. Your ajugas are perfectly healthy. That centre is supposed to wither away. Don’t cut off the extras - they are next year’s rosettes and vital for the fullness of coverage!!
Love that you slowed down the footage so we can see you planting and also hear the sounds of the garden.
Everything looks so pretty.......you are a truly blessed family and always giving to us your viewers and garden maturity produce..God loves a cheerful giver.

Good morning fellow Garden Answers! Laura, this has really turned into YOUR garden from when y’all first moved in. You and Aaron have worked hard to make it your own. I so enjoyed today’s planting that “we” did, listening to the background noise of birds, owls, breathing, crunch of the gravel…I love it all! Thank you so much! 💜🌸💚
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day
Yalls home and garden is my inspiration 🥰 yall work so hard and are living the dream ❤
I’m amazed you can find trays 12pk, 9pk, 6pk, of starters because we don’t have those here. When planting a vegetable garden we use to be able to buy multi packs now its each plant. We use Earth Boxes. Some Earth Boxes call for six plants and you if you can buy a six pack of peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, etc., It’s very economical. Now at $4.95 to $5.95 a plant it’s around $30-$36 an Earth Box and I have 45 earth boxes. Thats ot economical at all. I know they’re bigger plants however I’d rather start small and grow my own with a multi pack. Of course I’m talking big box stores like Lowe’s, Home Depot, and Walmart etc. that’s about all we have. We’re at their mercy. I love your videos. Very inspiring.
Have you thought of Scotch or Irish moss? I also planted some creeping thyme, I have it on a gentle hill. Thanks for some new plant ideas. I'm going shopping today.
My creeping thyme is so pretty this year while it is in bloom. Love this plant!
Mosses struggle in Laura’s climate. (I know this because I’ve lived in her area for half my life). It’s just too hot and dry, unless you have a shady area that has a lot of irrigation.
@@laraemitchell9064 so very true. I have some thyme but it just doesn't thrive like it does elsewhere.
I have a suggestion for your spent daffodil leaves. I take a small handful and braid them, then curl them around (like a cinnamon bun) and feed the end into the curl so it stays in place. The small unobtrusive little piles can then brown up completely to feed the bulbs for next year without making the bed look messy. 🙂
Or just chop them in half, if you don’t have the patience to style your daffodil’s hair. 😏
Wow even Laura forgets the biotone sometimes! The compost really looks so beautiful - excited for the Hartley garden 👏staying tuned for what's to come!!❤️👍🌱🌷🌺🌳
I’m in the UK and we are able to have red Sempervivums as ground cover they just pup loads of babies and spread, I’ve had a drift that has been through 5 winters and very little loss, but the original plants have increased x5 times, it’s a really great texture against other leaves
Hello 👋 beautiful how are you doing
Lol. I was yelling at the screen,"You forgot the Biotone!" Glad to hear your alternative method. Thanks for another great video.
I live in a tropical country but I'm addicted to your channel. Those roses are gorgeous. They don't grow as much in our climate, unfortunately.
I absolutely love ajuga. We planted some along our sidewalk several years ago. It was so thick and gorgeous near our magenta/dark pink azaleas. It was Easter weekend and a gorgeous show of spring color.
They were chocolate chip ajuga, lasted several years, but they died eventually. Not sure what happened to them. I have a hard time finding the chocolate chip ajuga. Anyway, I absolutely love the variety you planted. 💕🌻 Thank you for sharing all things beautiful!
P.S. Go cut those roses and make a gorgeous flower arrangement before the hail and wind comes. 🤷♀️💐💐
Hello I’m in California. I don’t know if they have any Armstrong garden centers where you are but that’s where I got my ajuga. They always have different types of it. Have a nice day
☕️Good morning everyone! So fun to hear you will try ground covers, Laura. I got hooked on them years ago when I set out my fairy garden displays. So fun! I’m enjoying my coffee with all of you this dreary morning in Michigan. Happy planting everyone! 💚🪴🧚🏻♂️
Good morning Dee! Same here. Finished first cup of coffee, cuddled up with my Maltipoo. Raining here in North Central Arkansas. I have a Little Henry Sweetspire and Sonic Bloom Wegelia that needs to be planted. I have some Little Bunny Grass seeds, so hopefully gardening this week will be fun. Have a wonderful week! 🌸🌻❤️
I think it's so funny how most of us are watching Laura's videos drinking our morning coffee. I do it every morning.😁
If we put in ground covers how would you mulch for winter protection? Wouldn't that mulch kill the ground cover ?
@@Gladys7477 No the mulch doesn’t kill my ground covers. It isn’t applied as thickly around them. The leaves and flowers grow through.
Thank you for showing the messy daffodil foliage! I have to deal with the same each year, it's nice to see everyone else dealing with it as well. I have such a big bank of it, I need to add more ferns to help hide the mess.
LOOOOVE this type of vlogs!!! Less music, more nature, just REAL life! 💓💟💓
I agree. Listening to the Robin's sing during the light rain was really lovely ❤️
love seeing you and your mom together! u both have such beautiful spirits about you
So funny, while you were planting I was thinking to myself she’s forgetting the bio-tone! Everything is looking beautiful!
Your west side garden may be my favorite. Seeing you completely retool that area has given me confidence to “go for it” in my own garden. 🤩 What is your vision for the boxwood formation side of the west side garden? More “fluffy” plants? It’s so pretty!
Hello everyone... everything is so beautiful😃🌺
Love this kind of planting day..a little maintenance, admiring what is blooming, planting new things..just feels like hanging out with you in the garden. I too was wondering about tbe biotone, so glad you caught that!
Good morning, Laura☕️ I too love the look of the garden right after the rain 😍 Everything looks amazing. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
Love how everything is looking. Just beautiful. You have such an eye for color and texture. I am so Excited to see the areas around the Hartley develop so will be waiting for those. Your videos made a perfect start to my day. Thank you
Love how honest you are. Completely open about how to fix after the fact of bio tone.
Ohhh! I hope the weather doesn’t take the Roses. 🌸They are gorgeous!
I've really enjoyed seeing how you have developed the westside garden. Bit by bit, year by year and it's filling in nicely and looking beautiful. You are an inspiration.
Sweet woodruff is a nice ground cover as well. Beautiful green leaves and dainty white flowers.
Praying 🙏 that you and your gorgeous hostas didn't & don't get any hail!!!!
Especially with everything looking so absolutely glorious ✨️ and lush!!!
Laura you are a powerhouse planter. That West Side Garden area is looking incredibly beautiful!
These videos are always my favs! Planting and plant maintenance!
your roses are gorgeous and growing along the fence is the icing on the cake.
I really enjoy you showing us the parts of your garden that are looking particularly beautiful such as the elderberry and roses and even the roses that are loaded up ready to bloom thank you
Ok, I’m sold. I will be getting those Collette roses. Absolutely gorgeous ❤️
It was so satisfying to see the newly composted/mulched area in the south garden! Lol Thanks!
My favorite ground cover is snow in summer. Its GORGEOUS right now and it stays lovely year around. We have quite a bit of space to fill in so its spreading tendencies are welcome in my garden. Its also quite easy to maintain and doesn't seem to mind overhead watering from nearby sprinklers.
Don’t you just love the silver foliage? I wintersowed this last year and got a number of plants for the front of the border.
@@michellescountrygardens yes its stunning! I need to figure out how to properly propgate this plant because I have many which are doing exceptionally well and would love to spread it out more amongst my property
I love the way you just shove 'em in the ground!
Your gardens look lovely. I enjoy your planting videos. You solved a mystery for me. I found a lone Armeria plant at the supermarket, but there was no tag to identify it. Now I know.
Hello Jodi how are you doing
The arbs look like giant fluffy green teddy bears!! So gorgeous! Watching you work in your garden feeds my soul. My schedule has not allowed me to do much in my garden this past year…but if I can just keep things alive, next year will be better, right? 💞
I’m number 2! Good morning everyone from Upstate NY!
Good morning from East Texas!! 🙋🏼♀️
Good Morning!!
Upstate here too
Neighbors r lucky to view such beauty....
Your garden 🪴 is so beautiful 😻!!!!
🤢 LAURA!! I almost spit out my coffee when you “examined” the spider web! 🤣 Never know what we will get… flowers, nature, Laura scraping scale of branches with her fingernails.. 🤣🤢❤️ But I love it and I love your videos! Thank you for bringing such joy to our day!
This made me laugh…truth and truthier!
This morning I was eating some dry cereal as she “observed” the spider web. Breakfast was over after that! Hahaha!!!
😄😂😂 That was so gross, and I watched it without squirming. I must admit, I squashed a few bugs this morning without my gloves today, and never thought I'd see this day, being born and raised in NYC. Gardening makes you and your stomach tough.
lol exactly!
That is so true! It’s helping us become more well rounded lol.
Love the rose and clematis together! Absolutely beautiful!! 😍
Monday planting!!! Absolutely best way to start the week!!
I loved seeing you toss those little plant babies into the holes. Like literally toss them. 😂
Beautiful plants, Laura. Everything is filling in nicely. South garden is really coming into its own. Mulch looks great out there. Amazing transformation in a short time.
I had to laugh about her forgetting to use the Bio Tone, Aaron did the same thing planting the trees just the other day. We’re not perfect and you have a good laugh about it and add it in and it will be beautiful!!
Every different place in your garden becomes my favorite place. Like when you’re on the west side I’m like the west side is totally my favorite place. But then when you’re in the south garden and the South Garden has so much opportunity totally my favorite. But then the west side of your house with that tall urn and sidewalk also totally my favorite. Then the country girl in me loves the chicken coop and the cottage vibes. And when I’m feeling sophisticated I love the versailles garden and of course the Hartley for when I’m feeling fancy.
Avid ajuga fan here! Just some advice, I would leave them long so they will root in and spread even faster. So excited to see your garden grow ❤️
The elderberry enveloping the rose is plant choice gold, Laura! They look better together!
The Blue Kazoo Spirea foliage is also used with great effect in floral arrangements as shown in a pic on the Proven Winners site. It's my next acquisition!!!
You have inspired me so much and my yard looks 100 times better than it did last year!
You plant so much. It must be so expensive. But it’s all so pretty. I’m hoping after some time watching your videos I will understand more about gardening.
