Do you all remember the video with the DIY ivy topiary? I made a few and they are so full and beautiful. They make a wonderful gift and require very little maintenance.
Recht herzlichen Dank, liebe Laura ,für diese wunderbaren Tipps. Ich freue mich auf weitere Videos und wenn Sie in Ihrem Haus dekorieren, daß macht mir Spaß und ich werde total animiert auch zu Hause bei mir Weihnachten zu schmücken. Liebe Grüße Anja von Germany😊❤
There was a local florist in Montreal who would force tulips in vintage wood crates of different sizes...So pretty!... If you could find a few, you could display these in the Hartley when they bloom , in your home . ..Idaho antique shopping trip with your mom coming up after Thanksgiving?? Hope so !
Once again, I am amazed at how much work Laura can get done. I love her contagious enthusiasm. I can't wait to see the tulips in bloom. But my favorite was Russell's approach, prancing along the table, & then tiptoeing down a flower pot, all for pets. Love that little cat!
Ooooh I can't wait Laura!! After all what good is it to have a heated green house if not to do this! You always find unique ideas any time of year. That's why we all love you!
I have planted bulbs in the late winter and in the spring after keeping them in a refridge for awhile. They did great! Once planted in the landscape I leave them. Some have been blooming there for years. I can not wait to see these bulbs bloom. I love your channel you have made me a better gardener for years now! From northern Minnesota.
One year I forced several types of bulbs and it was glorious when they bloomed! I had red tulips planted in a huge pot and when it bloomed it was beautiful. I had daffs, hibiscus and muscari grape hyacinth. It was so beautiful when they bloomed. The aroma of the flowers was like heaven. It was almost too much at times 😂. ❤
I wonder how early your bulbs would bloom in the Hartley exterior beds with the covers, they would be beautiful planted up closely like this😍❤️so you could snip some for arranging. ❤❤❤
I'm excited to see the Tulips and Daffs blooming early in the greenhouse! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷 And the blue & white floral ornaments are lovely. 💙🤍💙I've been a fan of that color combo for decades.
I think I love that blue and white tree more than any of the ones you've done, and I love a lot of them. We moved last summer from Texas to Albuquerque so I'm adjusting to a high desert climate. All those years watching GA suddenly has new relevance. ❤
After watching folks planting bulb lawns and having recently gotten the 7 inch auger, I put myself to work making a bulb mosaic. Instead of planting willy-nilly I planted a grid. Dutch master daffodils, grape muscari, ballerina tulips and queen of the night. 25 holesin a line 1 direction and until I ran out of bulbs. I blanted over 2000 of that mix each 1 getting its own 7 inch hole and then filling each hole with 1 type of bulb then repeating. I'm hoping for the best. I did this in a newly planted orchard. All the fruit tree's have imperial fritillaria planted around them as well. All new, can't wait until spring. Have you ever heard of anyone else doing such a thing?
My little town of Fremont in Eastern NC, is known as the Daffodil Town. We even have a Daffodil Festival in late March. No one ever digs and stores their bulbs. We just leave them in the ground and cut back the foliage after it has completely died back. I've noticed on the ColorBlends website that there are many varieties of Daffodil that are not rated for our zone 8a. So maybe the varieties that thrive in the South don't need as much cold? Daffodils have always been my favorite and remind me of both of my grandmothers, whose yards were full of beautiful Daffodils every spring.
Agree about Russell! He actually turned me into a cat lover after 60 years of thinking I didn't like them. Such a sweetie! I even like feisty Douglas. A complete 180.
Hi Laura! A good tip. If you color over the marker with dry erase marker it should remove the old writing. Then you can use them on either side again. Love your videos and watch you every morning!
Good morning Laura! It will be exciting to see all the colors in January! Just an idea, try using nail polish remover to clean off all the garden markers of old writing. It should take it right off. Hugs from N.C..❤
Ohhh, I love this idea of planting in the crates, for cut flowers. I’ll be watching this project! I’m in Tucson, Zone 9, my lemon tree also gets yellowing leaves at this point of production. I feel better now that you shared yours is looking the same. Oh, and my tree is outside, not in a green house. I always thought it was perhaps because I didn’t fertilize it enough. Thank you for giving us an update on the greenhouse plants. Your Avocado!!! So cool!! 👍👍. Thank you, so much, for posting.
Down here in Florida it is a very rare day when I see an outside tulip or daffodil. Most I see are sold for inside display then thrown out after blooming. I've tried several times to order and grow them outside and gave up - too humid I guess. I would never go through the pull and plant again cycle but amaryllis grow great - plant once and they keep on coming back. It is sad but we do have lots of other things that grow so well - why it is names Florida - land of flowers. I do recall a lady in North Florida that planted tons of tulips for spring then immediately after the show she dug the plants and put them by the side of her road for the garbage trucks. Every year there were lines of cars driving slowly by her home to see the display and grab up some of the plants to dig into soil until the leaves dried up but I never saw another yard with tulips - ever!
Some large binder clips would have been handy to hold up the landscape fabric on the sides. Is your mom going to force a bunch of bulbs in pots then sell them? That would be cool to see. Also plant some alliums in the center of a pot surrounded by tulips and daffodils. What a sight that could be at the garden center in January or February.
i am finishing up my fall blub planting ! 650 when done!!! i love the show in spring!! wish i had the heated greenhouse i would absolutely love flowers in January!! hey are you doing winter sowing in milk jugs this year!?
We never lifted tulips since the are hardy. critters so not eat them, and naturalize beautifully - but I would consider this with the daffodils which rarely return. It should be lovely.
As soon as you started the tulip project I was saying “Get your kneeling pad out”. Please don’t hurt your back lol I need my morning video😂. You work so hard. Can’t wait to see
Dillards had some beautiful blue and white ornaments. I have been making my own with arabesque tiles and mod podging blue floral fabric i got from hobby lobby.
Fun project! Can’t wait for blooms. I tried bulbs in large pot and they all rotted. Was hoping for a big bouquet(.we are zone 6 or 7 ) Russell needed extra love today.❤️🍁🦃
I have a question the smaller bulbs versus the larger bulbs ; what are the benefits of the bigger bulbs; will it produce a bigger flower, sturdier stem, does the smaller ones not produce the same? Just curious.
Good morning! What a lot of bulbs to plant! Why didn’t you just leave the bulbs in the ground? I know you are redesigning some of the spaces in your landscape but tulips & daffodils don’t have to be dug up. Still a lot of work.
It will be really interesting to see how this experiment works for you particularly with the tulips. Question: regarding the lemon trees how do you know when they are ripe and being in the greenhouse how did they get pollinated or are they self pollinated?
Great video. I will love to see how it goes. Question, when the bulbs are done and the foliage dies back could you put them back in cold storage and leave the bulbs another 16 weeks and then bring them back out and see if they will bloom again?
Those will be beautiful!!! Would you plant some daffodils on the hill behind the barn? You wouldn’t have to look at the foliage as it does back. Might be an interesting experiment.
I asked for a 60v drill for Christmas so I can use bigger augers. That's all I need! I have 2 that I can use with my 20v but I want to plant bigger things! ❤️ Thank you for continuing to inspire!
Great project I’m loving this. It’s going to look fantastic. Kitty cats stay out.😂. Can hardly wait to see. Thanks again for sharing this with us.💯💯💯🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Imagine planting the rest of the bulbs in the birm where the big evergreens are , imagine how it'll look in the spring😍
Do you all remember the video with the DIY ivy topiary? I made a few and they are so full and beautiful. They make a wonderful gift and require very little maintenance.
I can imagine all those bulbs planted under the evergreen border on dirt lands and left to naturalize ❤❤❤
This is what I came on to say! You could use the tractor to dig big trenches and just throw them in and see how successful it was!!?
YES!!! Would be amazing
Especially the daffodils. They naturalize better than tulips.
Holy lemon tree.. you need to make some lemonade, lemon tarts, lemon pie, lemon curd..
Laura try rubbing alcohol on your plant stakes. I use it on storage bins I mark with sharpies and it wipes it right off :)
I was about to suggest the same thing! I even do that on mason jars, which I use to store all kinds of things inside.
Nail polish remover also works or sometimes writing over top of the ink with an ‘dry erase’ marker and then wiping it.
Acetone/ Nail polish remover!
I think the would look stunning in front of all the Evergreens in the dirt lands!

You could use small binder clips to hold the fabric to the crate.
Big ones to get over the edge of the crates.
It would be fun to plant some in the new cut flower beds in a pattern.
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️ 🎄
Fantastic use of the greenhouse to force the tulip and daffodil blooms for a January display of Spring! 🌷
I have planted bulbs in the late winter and in the spring after keeping them in a refridge for awhile. They did great! Once planted in the landscape I leave them. Some have been blooming there for years. I can not wait to see these bulbs bloom. I love your channel you have made me a better gardener for years now! From northern Minnesota.
Can't wait to see the rows of tulips and daffodils! Simply marvelous. You have the best ideas.
One year I forced several types of bulbs and it was glorious when they bloomed! I had red tulips planted in a huge pot and when it bloomed it was beautiful. I had daffs, hibiscus and muscari grape hyacinth. It was so beautiful when they bloomed. The aroma of the flowers was like heaven. It was almost too much at times 😂. ❤
Nail polish remover removes the marker off super easy.
I wonder how early your bulbs would bloom in the Hartley exterior beds with the covers, they would be beautiful planted up closely like this😍❤️so you could snip some for arranging. ❤❤❤
Hint: I find rubbing alcohol will easily erase marker marking on plastic tags.
I'm excited to see the Tulips and Daffs blooming early in the greenhouse! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
And the blue & white floral ornaments are lovely. 💙🤍💙I've been a fan of that color combo for decades.
What a great idea! I can not wait to see all the various bulbs in January when you so longing for color. The fruit trees are going great.
The tulip and daffodil will be stunning and your mom is such a sweetheart bringing those gorgeous ornaments for you ❤
I think I love that blue and white tree more than any of the ones you've done, and I love a lot of them.
We moved last summer from Texas to Albuquerque so I'm adjusting to a high desert climate. All those years watching GA suddenly has new relevance. ❤
You can use a dry erase marker to remove the writing on your labels. Just scribble over the writing and then wipe off and it removes it all.
Love your show , sometimes I can’t watch but I still listen while working
What a great idea! Even the crates look beautiful already-but looking forward to seeing pops of green and then POW-Color!!!

That was a lot of work phew. I am still trying to get my lemon tree to give me lemons yours look amazing. Russel is just so special.

That will be beautiful. If you plant up more crates or containers in 2 and 4 weeks you will have tulips for months.
Love all your different experiments can't wait to see how this comes out ❣️
19:34 Hi Laura, your lemon tree wants blood and bone, a little potash, and some fish hydrolysate! They’re greedy little trees!
I was looking through the comments to see if someone mentioned this before I did. Thank you!!!
The greenhouse is going to be beautiful come January. 😊❤
Cool Idea! Looks like you have alot of winter projects in that greenhouse,girl!
Oh Laura! If you get the water feature up and running by the time the blooms appear, it will be magical in the greenhouse!
Ohhh, I love this idea of planting in the crates, for cut flowers. I’ll be watching this project!

What a great idea. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 looking forward to all the blooms. 😎🇦🇺
BLACK HARDWARE CLOTH across the crates to keep the cats off!
How do you know when the lemons are ready to pick or when any citrus is ready? Do you count days? I can't wait to see all the blooms!
Laura, you'll be able to "tip toe" through the tulips. I wish I could glean some of those beautiful bulbs.🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

You could plant a few drifts of daffs out in the dirt land or on the new berm on the new property, even if you eventually remove them.
I totally agree!!
Such a fun project. I hope your back survives all that lifting.
I DO PRAY FOR HER BACK AND KNEES - SHE WORKS SO HARD! I LIKE THE WAY YOU THINK KRISTASELF126!
Great video, can't wait to see these bulbs start growing little green nubs. And then the actual flower's. Love your channel.
When Russell was checking out the crates I thought the same thing (litter boxes).😊
i am finishing up my fall blub planting ! 650 when done!!!
i love the show in spring!! wish i had the heated greenhouse i would absolutely love flowers in January!!
hey are you doing winter sowing in milk jugs this year!?
We never lifted tulips since the are hardy. critters so not eat them, and naturalize beautifully - but I would consider this with the daffodils which rarely return. It should be lovely.
What a great idea! Will be so special to see these in the winter when I am looking forward to spring!
That greenhouse is gonna be breathtaking come January! And amazingly fragrant, too!
I can't wait to see how this turns out! I always love your ideas and enthusiasm and am amazed at how much you accomplish in a video! ❤
I think it would look great to have daffodils mixed in with the trees in the dirt lands and behind the barn. Just a thought.
Fingernail polish remover takes the marking off tags. Wipes right off.
As soon as you started the tulip project I was saying “Get your kneeling pad out”. Please don’t hurt your back lol I need my morning video😂. You work so hard. Can’t wait to see
WOW!! I can't wait till they bloom!!
Fantastic❤❤❤❤
Good Morning!🦃 I am also planting bulbs in containers! I am anxious to watch the tulips & daffodils grow!! The blue tree is so pretty!! 🥰🌷🤞🌿💙🤍
Dillards had some beautiful blue and white ornaments. I have been making my own with arabesque tiles and mod podging blue floral fabric i got from hobby lobby.
What a great idea. I can't wait to see all the flowers. You are truly amazing. Thanks for the video.
Lemons. You can preserve them in salt water and keep them in fridge. I have been having lemons in salt water for about a year now.
I was kinda fealing winter coming gloomy but not anymore😊thank you❤
That will be beautiful!! And what's with that lemon tree?? How many lemons are on that??wow!❤
Can't wait to see this experiment. Its going to be beautiful.
In central North Carolina daffodils bloom around that time all the way in to may
I love the crate idea! The tree is beautiful
Fun project! Can’t wait for blooms. I tried bulbs in large pot and they all rotted. Was hoping for a big bouquet(.we are zone 6 or 7 ) Russell needed extra love today.❤️🍁🦃
Great job you did as usual so much energy so much patience you have👍
Can’t wait to see all that color! I fear your back is going to ache for days from lifting and bending 😮 My back was hurting just watching you.
Good morning!🌻🐝
Can’t wait to see the tulips and daffodils in flower!
You work so hard....many blessings from NJ
I have a question the smaller bulbs versus the larger bulbs ; what are the benefits of the bigger bulbs; will it produce a bigger flower, sturdier stem, does the smaller ones not produce the same? Just curious.
Bigger bulb, bigger amount of energy stored, bigger and healthier plant overall.
Good morning! What a lot of bulbs to plant! Why didn’t you just leave the bulbs in the ground? I know you are redesigning some of the spaces in your landscape but tulips & daffodils don’t have to be dug up. Still a lot of work.
It will be really interesting to see how this experiment works for you particularly with the tulips. Question: regarding the lemon trees how do you know when they are ripe and being in the greenhouse how did they get pollinated or are they self pollinated?
I love when Laura is back in the greenhouse 🎉😊
Thoughts on planting some around the linden’s in the cut flower garden?
Can’t wait to see this! What a fun idea!
This is a fun project.
ooooohhh!! this is going to be fun to see in the middle of winter!!
Were those Lisianthus getting ready to bloom in the greenhouse. So exciting to be able to force all those bulbs.
I have to care for my gladiolus annually…they are downstairs in my store room that stays about 55 degrees!
Also....Soooo jealous of your lemon tree!
Great video. I will love to see how it goes. Question, when the bulbs are done and the foliage dies back could you put them back in cold storage and leave the bulbs another 16 weeks and then bring them back out and see if they will bloom again?
Afternoon Everyone 🥰
It's 8 in the evening here in the Philippines....A pleasant afternoon to you.
Good evening from Gold Coast Aus. Hope your afternoon has been nice.
Looking forward to seeing this ❤
Looking forward to the bulb endeavor!❤❤❤
Those will be beautiful!!! Would you plant some daffodils on the hill behind the barn? You wouldn’t have to look at the foliage as it does back. Might be an interesting experiment.
Can someone from Italy send her a family Limoncello recipe?! Homemade Limoncello in the Hartley sounds lovely.
18:12 they are so pretty.
Anybody else see the mouse run by at like 12:50? Russell better get after it!🐭
I don’t see a mouse.
Good eye! I slowed it to half speed and watched a few times and still couldn't see it, *but* it sure looked like Russell saw it!
Outstanding ❤
I asked for a 60v drill for Christmas so I can use bigger augers. That's all I need! I have 2 that I can use with my 20v but I want to plant bigger things! ❤️ Thank you for continuing to inspire!
Great project I’m loving this. It’s going to look fantastic. Kitty cats stay out.😂. Can hardly wait to see. Thanks again for sharing this with us.💯💯💯🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Good Monday morning from Cape cod Massachusetts
Janet I’m from cape cod, ma too! I live in bourne
@bethrussell4609 I love in Marstons Mills
@ it’s nice to meet you😁 I’ve been watching Laura and Aaron for 5 years and they have helped me so much! Have a fabulous Thanksgiving
@bethrussell4609 Nice to meet you too enjoy your Thanksgiving
The Virichic at 12:23 doesn't look like any tulip I've seen. Those will look lovely in the new year.
Wow! That’s a lot of tulips
Why do you grow so many?
And can you do a cats only video
Love the kitty’s 🌻🌷
Good morning from Delaware Garden Answer friends.
