Looks like Douglas wants to be the new Russell following you around during garden tours. And smart kitty for picking your home as his new home. Love the garden tours so much! I would love to see a video on how each section has developed over the years.
I hope after part 2 Aaron gets his drone up. I sometimes have trouble remembering the position of one area in relation to another. Your garden has grown so much! And there have been so many changes and developments over the years I’ve been following you. A real success story and tribute to hard work, careful planning and a true love of gardening.
Yes. It would be so great to see/orient where things are. Near the end I was trying to figure out where the new pond would be. The interesting part for me as well is seeing the difference in winter (bare) to the growth season as IM still learning how to remember what is where & how big. All your hard work (& team) really shows. ❤
Love watching GA, just want to give shout out to Paul and Bethany for all the behind-the-scenes work that they do. I know Laura gives them credit, but it really does take a team to do it all! Thanks for helping tend to big beautiful gardens for us other gardeners to watch.
That Douglas is such a hoot! Maybe just take the time to indulge him. Give him the love and attention he's obviously needing. Much of his behavior will adjust itself in due time. He adopting you is special ❤
Our daughterinlaw has a cat that swipes. After 2 rubs look out. Its a breed (type) that looks like it's wearing eyeliner. Fotunately the grandkids were older. cgzone8
Douglas is a gorgeous cat! Hopefully he will settle down a bit and learn to be more gentle. Also hope Cheddar and Russell will accept him as time goes on.
🌸Good day Laura, Aaron and Astronaut Benjamin🪐. Beautiful tour thru your paradise this morning. So wonderful to see everything thriving. I enjoy seeing you all every morning. Enjoy a beautiful garden day everyone 🌺👏🏻☕️💛
Love the tour! I’m a veterinarian with a hint for you and Douglas. Carry a few cat treats or cat food kibbles with you, give him a treat after you pet him and that will redirect him from swatting at you. You can also throw a treat away from you when he weaves around your legs so he forgets to be “contrary”. With time he may learn treats are better than his present behavior. ❤ 🐈⬛ ❤
Wonderful garden tour. Glad you are splitting it up into two tours, that way we have more time to concentrate on specific plants. The property is just gorgeous, congratulations to you,Aaron, Paul and Bethany for all your hard work. It’s really paying off.
Russell loves Laura so much. He follows her wherever she go ows through the garden. The flowers are beautiful but seeing the love an animal has for his person is amazing.
The clematis that is on the outside fireplace and at the chicken coop is beautiful!! I love the color of it!! The gardens look beautiful as always. Benjamin, the astronaut, looked so cute.😊 I can't wait to see the pond and the plants around it!!
Been waiting for this one Laura. I just wanna say, thank you again for inspiring us to make our homes nature friendly and tropical. I would like to ask though if you and Erin have thought about bringing Paul and Bethany to the garden highlights one day, or maybe 🤔 an interview with them. I know i would like to hear how they enjoy working with you guys and any wisdom they can share.
I was just wondering this morning while having coffee when the June tour was coming! I have learned SO much from watching your videos. From starting seeds, caring for plants, selecting the right plants for the right spots, to dealing with issues in the gardens from pests to soil/nutrient issues. My flowerbeds, gardens and overall landscape is going from open and bland to my own little garden paradise.
Good morning all, Laura you and Mother Nature make a beautiful team👏🏻👏🏻I’ve often wondered why rain makes a garden look so lush afterwards, I know watering is so important but the rain water makes everything look different and better then water from the faucet. In any event what you, Aaron and the team accomplish is just simply amazing 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾🍸🍸🍸🍸
Laura, the GA teacher with a pointer…..a carrot! Love it! Yes to a tour of your mom’s garden even if there’s disarray with loosing a tree recently. We love ur mom! Also, put on your thickest gloves and when Douglas swats, grab his paw and say “NO” then immediately release. Got to show who’s the boss!
No! No! No! That may work with a dog. Definitely NOT with a cat! Just use lots of patience and lots of calmly talking to Douglas. I am sure, his trust will increase., and he will not feel any need to hit out. Over 30 years living in the country side and three feral cats later who had adopted me, all have become very cuddly. Well, of course, do not know, whether Laura and her crew will have the time between showing us her beautiful garden and learning so much from her, Aaron and their team.
Your garden is amazing,are you in that stage where you can say: "Yes, this is the garden of my dreams, I am so proud of Aaron and myself, we did good?😊 Also,are you planing to do tour of your parents garden? I miss those tours.Your mom could join you,we could see what she has to say about her garden,things she is proud of,others that she struggle with? It would be such a beautiful tour.❤
Oh my goodness! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your gardens ♥️ This has absolutely 💯 been one of the most beautiful, pleasing, just good for the soul videos ❤ You guys are such an inspiration ❤️ Thank y'all so much for sharing ALL the beauty ❤️ Please give your little angels a hug for me because they are such a joy!! May God continue to bless your beautiful family so richly❤
Everything looks glorious! I'm glad y'all have kept the Versailles garden and brick fireplace garden with the angel. Everything else has changed so much over the years. Those spaces maintain your gardens' connection to its past. And, they are very pretty.
You, Laura, are a gift! Aaron, and Ken, and everyone involved (including fans), in this marvelous adventure, all deserve abundant credit. And you, Laura, are the shining visionary, the lover of flowers, the tree queen, the gardener of dreams. Thank you for the love you bring to the world.
Douglas has hit the jackpot with such a lovely property to roam. He clearly loves the camera too. Those hollyhocks are astounding! I loved the cameo from your little space man and how much gratitude you show for the team of workers you've assembled.
Your gardens are magnificent! I'm feeling so peaceful and satisfied after this wonderful tour! Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us!💕🌿🌼🌱🌳❤
So happy to see a garden tour. Everything looks so good. It is amazing how much change had taken place since the first garden tour when you first purchased your home. It is a beautiful transformation. Each season just gets better and better. Thank you for sharing your garden. I can't wait to see the second part. Have a blessed day everyone
Your gardens are amazing- I love the plants, the arrangements, all of it. The kitties are also a favorite of mine. I love the shout out to Paul and Bethany- what a beautiful paradise you all have created and maintain.
You guys are my Garden answers & Inspiration - QUESTION - how do you apply Super Thrive on trees? I wonder where to put it so the tree absorbs enough and not the surrounding plants? Thank you!
Watched your video from last year, now this one, wow so much has changed in a year. What better to do when it’s wet and rainy. I love your yard and videos. You and Aaron work so hard, make sure you take some fun family days, don’t get burnt out, enjoy your summer. Love you all, Debbie from Michigan ❤️😘😘😘😘😘
That back kitchen entrance is one of the prettiest combinations I've ever seen! And that little astronaut walking out just MADE my day!!! So adorable, makes me excited for my new grandson, due on Christmas this year (first one). Thank you for the tour!!
Good afternoon, Laura , Aaron, Benjamin , Samantha, Cheddar, Russell, and the new guy Douglas. Laura, I'm watching the video about receiving your Country Causal Teak, and I would like to start by saying how contagious your excitement is. The pairing of Country Causal Teak and Garden Answer seems like a match made in heaven. And I'm with you on assembly... you search and search for the perfect bench (Country Casual Teak 😊) and your very first experience with it is assembly. Aaargh.
Your garden has beautiful views no matter what way you turn. I know you have worked with plants for a very long time, but it amazes me how you can just rattle off the names of your plants. Everything is just coming together so beautifully! As a side note, I love seeing Douglas again.
Watching this from a very wet Cape Town and loving every minute of it. Still can't get my mind around how much has changed since you guys bought the south garden land! Thanks so much for sharing all of this with us!!!🌸💮🌺🥀🌲🌳
I love your garden and it's so inspiring and I watch your videos over and over and over and over and I think about ways I can fix up my little yard. 💜 And I'm pretty sure that one of the reasons your flowers and all your plants are so beautiful is because, may sound weird but I'm sure they could feel that love, the energetic love that vibrates off of you and it helps feed them. That's what I believe anyway. 🙃 I love all your videos. 💚💚💯💚💯
Everything is beautiful and lush! 💜I cannot take my eyes off of Douglas so cute. I think Russell telling Douglas to go away because this is his tour with Mom. lol!
What a beautiful tour of the garden I can’t wait for the pond to go in that’s going to look fantastic. Boy that Douglas is something else swatting your feet after petting him. Maybe if he is spayed it would calm him down. Benjamin looked so cute in his costume.
That carrot cracked me up. I do the same thing. Also thanks for letting us know about Douglas’ backstory. My kids notice your kittys all the time and ask about them. Everything looks amazing and I was so excited for the June tour!!!
I'm really liking Douglas. Happy to know his history with your family. The tour was lovely! I hope you had a nice glass of wine after this work, showing us all!
That first bed is goals, because the color and texture of the blue/green, and the way the purple supertunias are mixed in and popping the color, all along that rock border, just made my day! Also, that jazzberry is AMAZING on that corner.....just knock out!
Great tour, Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸 I'm always so satisfied watching you show your beautiful gardens! Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾👍 ❤Peggy❤
Wow, Laura & Aaron. Just wow. It is amazing to see the ongoing development of your gardens. I have loved following your journey since the very early days. Always so inspirational. I am eternally grateful.
Laura never think you videos are too long!!! I learn so much about plant names, placement of plants, what and how to fertilize plants. And the list goes on. I also love the garden of your mom and dads place. Thank you sweetheart so much for all you do and share.
Hi Lauren and Aaron! I just wanted to reach out and express how much I love watching your UA-cam channel. It's truly an incredible source of inspiration, and I'm amazed by how far you have come. Your content has this special appeal that keeps me hooked, like watching a captivating TV show or a delightful reality series, but without any unnecessary drama. I'm genuinely excited and eagerly looking forward to what you have in store next. Keep up the fantastic work. PS. If you guys are building a pond, I guess I am too lol 😂
I LOVE the pond idea! It will make for a beautiful landscape in that area. I also could see it provide a small space to try some ice skating perhaps in the cold of winter.
I love Douglas! We had a cat, Bob, that looked just like him. Whenever I would sit on the ground to weed, plant, he would attack me from behind. But he was a very lovable cat. I think Douglas just wants more of your attention.
Just love how you appreciate the work that Paul and Bethany carry out for you. Not all employers give credit to the work there staff do. Love your video posts...your ideas and inspiration is priceless. I bet you are a lovely person to know in real life.
I loved the tour, I like it when you have a before and after showing us the difference. You properly has grown into such a beautiful peaceful place. I remember you saying what you started out with looked like Mars.😂😂😂
Who would know that a style of bench would be such a difficult choice. I am learning it is as important as plant placement. I am still holding out that the Hartley benches will grow on me once things grow up a bit. What a treat it is when you do a tour and talk future ideas. It is fun to dream with you all and watch as you fulfill them.
I think Douglas just wants to be an velcro kittie. My kitties, Siamese breeds , usually reach out to me when they have not received enough loving. I'll take him anytime. Such a handsome kittie.🩵💙🩵💙🩵💙
The garden is getting so beautiful and developed, I loved that vantage point from Versailles back to the new shade path. I had a thought on a video project maybe for the winter, a video comparing viewpoints from when you first moved in, maybe an interim pic of where it was a few years in and where it is this year. Great work to you and all your team!
Love adorable Douglas , that cute bushy tail floating high and happy😍 He has claimed you as his. 😍 Maybe he is so happy with the attention he is overwhelmed and doesn't know what to do with the excitement of it ? 😍😍😍
Good morning, Thank you guys for such a lovely tour!! Was hoping you would show that beautiful plant growing up the fireplace, and the other beautiful plant growing up behind the chickens.. What are they? You guys have done an incredible job! Thanks for sharing so much knowledge, beauty, inspiration, and positivity with us!!
I always look at these gardens like they’re just all consuming amounts of work, too many spaces, and too expensive, but then I think of waking up in the mornings walking into that paradise and rethinking maybe it’s just all worth it!
Your gardens are astounding! They reflect the energy you have put in them. The cats and your astronaut top of the charm of this tour. We moved from owning a bed and breakfast in Stillwater Minnesota to Portland Oregon. Left behind big gardens to mostly hardscape . I love to see the grand gardens you create and feel your joy. We to had hail that shredded my inpatients but thank heavens we are not covered by 2 feet of snow in the winter. I am going to find more petunias and plant them today.
Thank you, Aaron and Laura, (Douglas, Cheddar, and Russell too) for sharing your garden. I like that you talk about what is not working for you also. I learn from my mistakes and just move forward with new knowledge. You guys rock.
We have 2 acres we could use a Paul & Bethany, I can only imagine all your acres. You and Aaron do such a beautiful job. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and sharing your beautiful family.❤
A Glourous yard, gardens full Beautifully Beauties!! Aw Kitty's they will eventually find their way, so darn Adorable 😊 I hv too say green thumbs up to both Aaron and Laura, and Ur Crew, Very Beautifully and Ur details in designed areas just lov Ur Gardens what Peace watching Ur tour and videos all Ur Year's In Hard Works, Aw Shinning Brightly Beautifully 😊 I am so happy too see them huge beautiful Holly hocks, my Grams favorite flower, which I can't get too come even with Ur helpful videos, Lov, Lov Them!! Aaron Thank U for not PULLING!! ALL WHAT BEAUTIES 😊 Thank U Aaron for Ur Continuing on Focusing, Awesome!! 😊 Excited too see Ur next adding Beauties to Ur Space's, Keep Rocking Life Beautifully 😊 I just re-watching again, had an idea, them Rocking benches replace with a pair of water tower's not necessarily towers but a water fixture that floats and flows the water down them sounds would be just me mesmerizing in that area what a beautiful location changing and developing, could find 2 of the same kind, length, and height what a great idea and a great place for them, just thinking... All looking Fabulously 😊
Your garden dear Laura and dear Aaron, is simply amazing. 💐I dont know how many times i watched this videos. 🤗❤️ Kerp the good work going, it's worth every minute of it.
Wow! I love this garden tour. I must say, it’s glorious to see the more regular tours! You have worked such magic in just the last couple of years! Douglas is so funny. Poor Russell. He doesn’t want to share his mom. They will work it out I hope. Just a side note maybe will be of interest. I just traveled across country. From Oklahoma to where Laura is in eastern Oregon. And in Wyoming (6000 to 7000 feet in elevation), lilacs were just finishing their blooms. June 24.
Lovely tour, Laura and Aaron. You have accomplished so much. Douglas will probably settle down; maybe Jackson Galaxy would know what to do to stop the swiping❤
You're so talented and fortunate to have so many and such beautiful gardens! I have just started watching your channel. My sister has been hooked for years, she tells me. I may have to go back to the beginning to learn more about how this all came to be. Love what I have seen thus far!
Looks like Douglas wants to be the new Russell following you around during garden tours. And smart kitty for picking your home as his new home. Love the garden tours so much! I would love to see a video on how each section has developed over the years.
Great idea!
@@rosemarythyme6351 YES! GREAT idea! Time-lapse, or something...
Douglas is the new Russell???
I love Douglas 🥰 he is beautiful I love your videos learning a lot about flowers n trees 🙂
@@zoreslavazinczenko1060I like your idea! Time-Lapse! That would be awesome!
Beautiful garden! We need a tour of your moms garden with all her hostas!
You are right about the window boxes plants. You planned the flowers so well!
Yes I would love to see that! It’s been a few years!
I concur!
I’d love to see your mom’s garden also.
Yes, please!
AMAZING spaces!! ❤ I see Douglas gets agitated when you start to move away, he wants you to keep petting. Starved for attention. 😂
Exactly!❤
I thought the same thing! It's like Douglas is waving his paw as if to say, "Come back here!"
Yeah my guys do this, "don't stop the snuggles!"
Thanks for the garden tour. Your home and gardens are turning into an amazing place that could rival any American or European estate gardens.
My kitty does that too. She will not let you stop pets if she wants more pets.
I hope after part 2 Aaron gets his drone up. I sometimes have trouble remembering the position of one area in relation to another. Your garden has grown so much! And there have been so many changes and developments over the years I’ve been following you. A real success story and tribute to hard work, careful planning and a true love of gardening.
Yes, drone shot, please!!!!
Yes. It would be so great to see/orient where things are. Near the end I was trying to figure out where the new pond would be.
The interesting part for me as well is seeing the difference in winter (bare) to the growth season as IM still learning how to remember what is where & how big.
All your hard work (& team) really shows. ❤
Love watching GA, just want to give shout out to Paul and Bethany for all the behind-the-scenes work that they do. I know Laura gives them credit, but it really does take a team to do it all! Thanks for helping tend to big beautiful gardens for us other gardeners to watch.
Huge, huge, HUGE shout out to Paul and Bethany!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesss! 👏 the quiet achievers!
Aaron's excellent videography 😊
Love the "Carrot Pointer"!! All boardrooms should have those!
I was giggling to myself, wondering how far the carrot 🥕 was going to go in the tour.
I got such a kick out of watching that carrot flop around 😆
Some teachers use a stuffy pointer but our Laura uses a carrot! Love that you always keep it real!
That Douglas is such a hoot! Maybe just take the time to indulge him. Give him the love and attention he's obviously needing. Much of his behavior will adjust itself in due time. He adopting you is special ❤
Our daughterinlaw has a cat that swipes. After 2 rubs look out. Its a breed (type) that looks like it's wearing eyeliner. Fotunately the grandkids were older. cgzone8
Some cats are just mean!
Douglas is a gorgeous cat! Hopefully he will settle down a bit and learn to be more gentle. Also hope Cheddar and Russell will accept him as time goes on.
🌸Good day Laura, Aaron and Astronaut Benjamin🪐. Beautiful tour thru your paradise this morning. So wonderful to see everything thriving. I enjoy seeing you all every morning. Enjoy a beautiful garden day everyone 🌺👏🏻☕️💛
Love the tour!
I’m a veterinarian with a hint for you and Douglas. Carry a few cat treats or cat food kibbles with you, give him a treat after you pet him and that will redirect him from swatting at you. You can also throw a treat away from you when he weaves around your legs so he forgets to be “contrary”. With time he may learn treats are better than his present behavior.
❤ 🐈⬛ ❤
Thank you for these tips! I’m dealing with a couple kitties who want to be petted and murder me at the same time!
Out of the ashes the Phoenix rises. Areas are being buttoned up and Laura is really hitting her stride, her enthusiasm shows.
Wonderful garden tour. Glad you are splitting it up into two tours, that way we have more time to concentrate on specific plants. The property is just gorgeous, congratulations to you,Aaron, Paul and Bethany for all your hard work. It’s really paying off.
Russell loves Laura so much. He follows her wherever she go ows through the garden. The flowers are beautiful but seeing the love an animal has for his person is amazing.
Everything is looking gorgeous 🥰 Douglas is becoming a film star. Cannot wait to see the pond project!
The clematis that is on the outside fireplace and at the chicken coop is beautiful!! I love the color of it!! The gardens look beautiful as always. Benjamin, the astronaut, looked so cute.😊 I can't wait to see the pond and the plants around it!!

Aaron, fabulous job on close ups!
The garden looks spectacular!
Thank you guys, for sharing your lives with us!
Ohhh Douglas!!!!🐾🖤🐾
Just always amazed at how quickly everything is developing❤❤❤❤
I like the idea of white benches to replace the rocker benches. It will complement the hartley white.
I love how Laura's uses her down time without the kids to plant some plants. Gardeners gotta garden
Good morning all, Laura you and Mother Nature make a beautiful team👏🏻👏🏻I’ve often wondered why rain makes a garden look so lush afterwards, I know watering is so important but the rain water makes everything look different and better then water from the faucet. In any event what you, Aaron and the team accomplish is just simply amazing 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾🍸🍸🍸🍸
I heard that it has to do with the nitrogen that is picked up by the water droplets up in the atmosphere. So rain water is also a natural fertilizer.
Yes, rain makes a TREMENDOUS difference!!!!
Laura, the GA teacher with a pointer…..a carrot! Love it! Yes to a tour of your mom’s garden even if there’s disarray with loosing a tree recently. We love ur mom! Also, put on your thickest gloves and when Douglas swats, grab his paw and say “NO” then immediately release. Got to show who’s the boss!

Well, of course, do not know, whether Laura and her crew will have the time between showing us her beautiful garden and learning so much from her, Aaron and their team.
@@dorisk4427agreed. Douglas seems a bit feral. He probably won't react well to traditional "discipline" - like a dog.
Your garden is amazing,are you in that stage where you can say: "Yes, this is the garden of my dreams, I am so proud of Aaron and myself, we did good?😊 Also,are you planing to do tour of your parents garden? I miss those tours.Your mom could join you,we could see what she has to say about her garden,things she is proud of,others that she struggle with? It would be such a beautiful tour.❤
Beautiful! What if you painted the electrical box on the Hartley? Maybe a color that would help it blend into the brick better
Oh my goodness! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your gardens ♥️ This has absolutely 💯 been one of the most beautiful, pleasing, just good for the soul videos ❤ You guys are such an inspiration ❤️ Thank y'all so much for sharing ALL the beauty ❤️ Please give your little angels a hug for me because they are such a joy!! May God continue to bless your beautiful family so richly❤
Everything looks glorious! I'm glad y'all have kept the Versailles garden and brick fireplace garden with the angel. Everything else has changed so much over the years. Those spaces maintain your gardens' connection to its past. And, they are very pretty.

“Garden Tour Part 2”: beautiful 🎶 music 🎶 to our ears! 🥰
Your gardens are magnificent! I'm feeling so peaceful and satisfied after this wonderful tour! Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us!💕🌿🌼🌱🌳❤
Love to see your moms garden and also her home renovations. Has Monica’s garden began to grow and look amazing too!
So happy to see a garden tour. Everything looks so good. It is amazing how much change had taken place since the first garden tour when you first purchased your home. It is a beautiful transformation. Each season just gets better and better. Thank you for sharing your garden. I can't wait to see the second part. Have a blessed day everyone
Your gardens are amazing- I love the plants, the arrangements, all of it. The kitties are also a favorite of mine. I love the shout out to Paul and Bethany- what a beautiful paradise you all have created and maintain.
I can't imagine anything more relaxing than your rocking benches by the waterfall!
What fun to have so many great tours this year. The changes and growth are beautiful.
Enjoyed Douglas’s antics…
What a beautiful space. Such inspiration!
It's not a garden, it's a work of art
What a blessing to have such a beautiful garden surrounding your home. Very tranquil yet enriching 🌱🌞💗
You guys are my Garden answers & Inspiration - QUESTION - how do you apply Super Thrive on trees? I wonder where to put it so the tree absorbs enough and not the surrounding plants? Thank you!
Watched your video from last year, now this one, wow so much has changed in a year. What better to do when it’s wet and rainy. I love your yard and videos.

Good afternoon, Laura , Aaron, Benjamin , Samantha, Cheddar, Russell, and the new guy Douglas.

I appreciate your garden tours so much. Aaron, I’m with you on the placement of those pretty rocking benches. ❤
Douglas is such a little lover. And those Hollyhocks oh my goodness. I need those in my garden. Beautiful tour, thank you.
Astronaut and cat appearances really add charm to an EPIC garden tour ❤
Those blue chair cushions are so pleasant with the green background! Love that !!!! 😍
Watching this from a very wet Cape Town and loving every minute of it. Still can't get my mind around how much has changed since you guys bought the south garden land! Thanks so much for sharing all of this with us!!!🌸💮🌺🥀🌲🌳

I'm all for the pathways - it's like the path to wonderland! Great job fun tour 👍👏😊
I’m so excited for the pond !!
I absolutely love Douglas! I hope he behaves with his people and his adopted siblings.
Everything is beautiful and lush! 💜I cannot take my eyes off of Douglas so cute. I think Russell telling Douglas to go away because this is his tour with Mom. lol!
What a beautiful tour of the garden I can’t wait for the pond to go in that’s going to look fantastic. Boy that Douglas is something else swatting your feet after petting him. Maybe if he is spayed it would calm him down. Benjamin looked so cute in his costume.

Great tour, Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸
I'm always so satisfied watching you show your beautiful gardens!
Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾👍
❤Peggy❤
Wow, Laura & Aaron. Just wow. It is amazing to see the ongoing development of your gardens. I have loved following your journey since the very early days. Always so inspirational. I am eternally grateful.
It’s always fun to find someone who’s been following since the beginning. It’s been quite a journey with such beautiful results!
Laura never think you videos are too long!!! I learn so much about plant names, placement of plants, what and how to fertilize plants. And the list goes on. I also love the garden of your mom and dads place. Thank you sweetheart so much for all you do and share.

Laura's garden chairs next to the hydrangeas are just soooooo beautiful ❤
I love Douglas! We had a cat, Bob, that looked just like him. Whenever I would sit on the ground to weed, plant, he would attack me from behind. But he was a very lovable cat. I think Douglas just wants more of your attention.
Loved seeing Benjamin.... he is cute and growing so fast!! 👨🚀🚀
The brick work is just beautiful!! 👏👏👏💚💚💚
Just love how you appreciate the work that Paul and Bethany carry out for you. Not all employers give credit to the work there staff do. Love your video posts...your ideas and inspiration is priceless. I bet you are a lovely person to know in real life.
Everything is looking spectacular! What a beautiful tour!
But Benjamin the astronaut 👩🚀 got me!!!
When I first saw Benjamin I thought he was dressed in a beekeeper outfit. LOL
I loved the tour, I like it when you have a before and after showing us the difference. You properly has grown into such a beautiful peaceful place. I remember you saying what you started out with looked like Mars.😂😂😂
Who would know that a style of bench would be such a difficult choice. I am learning it is as important as plant placement. I am still holding out that the Hartley benches will grow on me once things grow up a bit. What a treat it is when you do a tour and talk future ideas. It is fun to dream with you all and watch as you fulfill them.
I think Douglas just wants to be an velcro kittie.
My kitties, Siamese breeds , usually reach out to me when they have not received enough loving. I'll take him anytime. Such a handsome kittie.🩵💙🩵💙🩵💙
The Boom chocolata geranium with the purple arround the hartley is Perfektion! Thank you for this wonderful tour!
Your June tour is outstanding. You are such a great inspiration and I enjoy every minute of your videos. Thank you for your hard work and dedication!!
The garden is getting so beautiful and developed, I loved that vantage point from Versailles back to the new shade path. I had a thought on a video project maybe for the winter, a video comparing viewpoints from when you first moved in, maybe an interim pic of where it was a few years in and where it is this year. Great work to you and all your team!
Douglas is keeping you on your toes! He just wants to play and love you❤
Love adorable Douglas , that cute bushy tail floating high and happy😍 He has claimed you as his. 😍 Maybe he is so happy with the attention he is overwhelmed and doesn't know what to do with the excitement of it ? 😍😍😍
Good morning, Thank you guys for such a lovely tour!! Was hoping you would show that beautiful plant growing up the fireplace, and the other beautiful plant growing up behind the chickens.. What are they? You guys have done an incredible job! Thanks for sharing so much knowledge, beauty, inspiration, and positivity with us!!
Your garden is stunning! Douglas is trying so hard to be a goodboy, and he sure loves you Laura, please don’t give up on him.
I always look at these gardens like they’re just all consuming amounts of work, too many spaces, and too expensive, but then I think of waking up in the mornings walking into that paradise and rethinking maybe it’s just all worth it!
Your gardens are astounding!
They reflect the energy you have put in them. The cats and your astronaut top of the charm of this tour.
We moved from owning a bed and breakfast in Stillwater Minnesota to Portland Oregon. Left behind big gardens to mostly hardscape .
I love to see the grand gardens you create and feel your joy.
We to had hail that shredded my inpatients but thank heavens we are not covered by 2 feet of snow in the winter. I am going to find more petunias and plant them today.
The seating area by the greenhouse is gorgeous!!!! 💕
I love the plants you planted with the blue green color the icicles, dusty miller etc.I think it looks so beautiful especially with the new stonework!
Thank you, Aaron and Laura, (Douglas, Cheddar, and Russell too) for sharing your garden. I like that you talk about what is not working for you also. I learn from my mistakes and just move forward with new knowledge. You guys rock.
We have 2 acres we could use a Paul & Bethany, I can only imagine all your acres. You and Aaron do such a beautiful job. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and sharing your beautiful family.❤
Love your garden tours never to long , it’s absolutely Beautiful !
Just splendid! Thank you Laura, Aaron and your team!!!

All looking Fabulously 😊
Your garden dear Laura and dear Aaron, is simply amazing. 💐I dont know how many times i watched this videos. 🤗❤️ Kerp the good work going, it's worth every minute of it.
Wow! I love this garden tour. I must say, it’s glorious to see the more regular tours! You have worked such magic in just the last couple of years! Douglas is so funny. Poor Russell. He doesn’t want to share his mom. They will work it out I hope.
Just a side note maybe will be of interest. I just traveled across country. From Oklahoma to where Laura is in eastern Oregon. And in Wyoming (6000 to 7000 feet in elevation), lilacs were just finishing their blooms. June 24.
I absolutely love watching your videos and just how great your plants and arrangements look before and after makes me want to grow and plant myself!!!
Poor Russell, Douglas is trying to take his place following you around. I really liked your new blue cushions. The garden looks so nice, great job!
My compliments to your husband. He does an excellent job on your videos! 👍🏻
Note book hand, ready for the tour. 😊
The gardens are beautiful! Thanks for all your hard work & dedication 💕
Happy Tuesday! Happy garden tour! 🎉❤😊
Lovely tour, Laura and Aaron. You have accomplished so much. Douglas will probably settle down; maybe Jackson Galaxy would know what to do to stop the swiping❤
You're so talented and fortunate to have so many and such beautiful gardens! I have just started watching your channel. My sister has been hooked for years, she tells me. I may have to go back to the beginning to learn more about how this all came to be. Love what I have seen thus far!
