I am not sure why but I LOVE watching the auger, especially when Aaron lifts it and reverse's the dirt. It is so FUN watching it spray out. I guess it's the little things in life, HA! 🥰
Your gardens are so beautiful, all your hard work has certainly paid off. It must be so rewarding to just walk outside and see all the beauty you have created.
Hi~ As soon as I saw them near the tree going in with their shovels, I thought... What fun memories they'll have looking back after the trees have matured. However, Benjamin's excitement for underwater swimming with the fam may be a stronger memory! So cute!🙋
Love when all four of you gatden together. Kids are getting so big. Love love the birch tree. Looks beautiful Great team work. Enjoy your swimming, I grew up with a pool, i have great family memories.❤❤❤❤
When you grow up on the prairies, you plant trees several years before you build a house on a property. It’s okay to get the trees done first, Aaron. 😊
For the chickens, I just saw a lady who froze water in shallow tubs and put them in the chicken coop and the chickens would actually stand on them to cool off.
What the 4h kids did for the chickens and rabbits during our county fair - 1st week of August - was fill 2 liter soda bottle with water and freeze them, and rotate out the thawed ones for fresh frozen ones. It helped a lot, and you would see the animals cuddling up against the bottles. The fair building would also run misters during the day, but the kids brought the frozen bottles.
Good evening Laura and family, it's so nice to see your family out In The gardens. Love how Samantha Grace handles that shovel pretty soon she'll be saying I'll dig the hole.😊 Your property looks amazing SO many different colors and plants, trees. When is your next garden tour? Thanks for sharing, stay hydrated. Have a awesome weekend. 👋🙂
While it's hot, you, your mom,and Monica could go antique shopping, or you do some cooking, or you guys could take a couple of days off..😊 It's supposed to be 107 here in East Tennessee. I love summer, but not temperatures that hot. Stay safe.
I live in East Tennessee and I just checked the 7 day forecast and the highest temperature for the coming week is 97 degrees. I can't imagine there would be a 10 degrees difference in the same area.
I just love how often you make a big tree planting a whole family event. Like you're welcoming the tree to the family. No doubt that loving energy makes all the difference. 💖🌲🌸
You are not only building beautiful gardens with the kids helping but your also building beautiful memories with the kids! Benjamin’s eyes while he was talking about swimming…. Oh my goodness!
So much accomplished before the heat wave descends! I love that Laura shares her strategy for dealing with the climate, a gardener's constant opponent.
I love watching your videos and looking forward to meeting you next week in Chicago! I'm from Houston, TX, zone 9, and wish I could grow some of the many different beautiful plants you grow in lower zones. My sons and I visited aquascape in February '22 and took a class in pond building. We came back to TX and built my pond. Your appearance for the pond tour has given me the perfect opportunity to visit aquascape again to see the pond and facility when it's not frozen! I've created a paradise in my backyard, so I don't want to leave for long but figure a 4 day trip to see more beautiful ponds and meet you and Aaron in Chicago will be a real treat!
So proud of Benjamin being able to go under water! Swimming is an important skill. So glad your kids know how to swim and enjoy it. Everything looks so beautiful Laura. You all do such an amazing job in your gardening. 😊
Crossing my fingers that the extremely warm weather and time spent in the studio inspires a succulent arrangement, fairy garden, or terrarium. I’ve always loved all the little projects you find to do some indoor gardening on the hot summer days not fit for the gardener. It makes for a nice little oasis of calm and cool in the midst of the busy season. 🍄🦔🌵
Yes Laura....keep stressing how different humidity makes it.....everyone thinks I'm crazy when I say I cannot garden because it's 94 degrees and 100% humidity.
@dianegougelet1829 I honestly don't understand what mankind has done to the environment. It's stifling at 7a most mornings. My garden shuts down june 1st and I'm in maintenance mode til mid September because I just cannot be outside more than 2 hours and that's pushing it. At this point I feel sorry for the poor plants having to stay out there in this heat.
Loved seeing Benjamin and Samantha helping with the tree...they are the sweetest kids! Good job Benjamin going underwater!! He is not camera shy at all! Loved his facial expression! I could totally handle the heat better if ours were dry heat, no humidity, and cooler at night. The high humidity does me in! Our weekend in Wisconsin is going to be very hoy, and VERY humid...YUK!! Have fun swimming everyone!!!!
I put a frozen gallon of water in front of a fan set on low (they really dont like wind blowing on them) to cool the hens at night....the gentle breeze over ther ice is very cooling. Benjamin's "guess what" sounded just like my 6 year old grandson telling me his accomplishments my my heart sing. You are blessed and its wonderful to see that you and family know it❤
Love seeing all the new plants and trees going in. So fun seeing Benjamin and Samantha helping out. Samantha using the shovel like mom and dad do was precious. They’re growing up too fast. Hope all got to cool off some in the pool. Enjoy your weekend.
Love love love the trees going in, also love Benjamin telling us he's can swim underwater and then his look on his face reminds me of my grandson so much. We just love you all!
Wow. Those heat temps are miserable! North Texas is suffering w heat this week also, garden projects are on hold. Thanks for sharing fun stuff! Time for an antique run! 🌻🌻⭐️
Going swimming with my sister at my Aunt's is one of my favorite memories. ❤ Loved seeing Benjamin get excited about going under water! Of course, the garden beds look beautiful. In MI, I also love a sedum in a container!
Have fun swimming with the darlings. Loved Benjamin’s special facial expression earlier, very funny. The trees look great. During the heat this summer, it would be great to take a major antique break. 😂❤😂
Just a great video today. Just love the are the plants and trees you planted today can't wait to see how they all do. And so lovely to see Benjamin and Samantha. Just so cute they are. Hope you all enjoyed your swimming. And Laura were was your hat. You need it with all the heat you are having.
I love how the kids help with planting trees. Little Samantha already knows how to use her foot to push on the shovel. So cute. You're awesome parents !
I see the vision perfectly. It's so enjoyable when you plant on "Mars" but in the end, they are all placed according to the master plan. Your property is stunning!
I love how the children are so happy to help with the planting. One day they will look at that tree and remember how they helped plant it. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! Have a great afternoon cooling off 🤗❤️
I love watching your children planting with you. Samantha has her own shovel. When she had her foot on that shovel digging it was so cute. Soon cute. Seen mama do it. Lol
Laura & Aaron, I hope everyone knows this will grow in and make sense.. the vision, that whole area in Mars TRUST ME.. when I write, is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS ALREADY!! yes I yelled it!! ❤ I LOVE where you two decided on putting the Birch ! Laura, that new plant with the pink glorious flowers are so beautiful, I am definitely going to be on the hunt for that Proven Winners perennial! I can’t wait to smell the fragrance. Thank you for sharing.
❤Hi, Samantha and Benjamin are so cute helping plant the trees! And Benjamin goes under water! They are getting so big! What a treat to see them all of you working together to plant! Love the Birch!
Here I am thinking hopefully you’re still at this UA-cam gig in ten years and we all can enjoy seeing how these birch trees and others will look as they grow into their size. Anyway, happy gardening. I saw you first on UA-cam a few years back while I was searching for Christmas wreath making tutorials.
Just love watching your family work together! And thanks for the idea of planting sedum in containers. Now I know what I'm going to do tomorrow. Also loved the cottontail yarrow!
It's so crazy how different the 'heat' is in one state/zone vs another. I'm in North Texas, zone 8b - when it's hot, it's HOT. Todays high 94, low 74. The only difference between sun and shade is getting or not getting sunburn. If we get a little breeze, that does help!
I just love those trees!! You guys know how to pick some really beautiful things! It’s honestly really fun to watch that huge auger go! Bet you are soooo glad that you didn’t hand dig the hole in that heat! Your little sweet peas jumping right in to help is precious 🥰 Give Benjamin a high five, being able to go under the water is a big deal!! Great job sunshine!!
That's so sweet, the whole family planting the trees, memories of a lifetime! I think that being in the pool is going to be the best thing! Enjoy the time together! Blessings 💞🙏🏻💞
Gardens are beautiful, I think maybe we need another garden tour 😊.you are lucky with the heat here in Northern Ontario Canada we have heat and lots of humidity and it doesn't cool down at nite ,it's terrible
working in the heat, yes, you will get sweaty Benjamin, haha... your kids are such great helpers, love them both helping to plant the trees... i wish we could smell the chitalpa; it is such a pretty flower!! love the sedum in the pots or in the landscape, too... looks like a trip to the pool was well-earned by all!! 🥰❤thanks for the video!! 🥰❤
Benjamin was so cute with his funny face, and Laura climbing onto the tree container to loosen it...the best! This video really made me smile! I love the placement of the four trunk birch. Beautiful. If you decide to limb up the chitalpa into a tree form, will you show us how you do it please?
115° here in Scottsdale AZ. Feels like 59° here in the pool. Lol. Stay cool & hydrare. God bless you and your family, and many 🙏🏻 prayers. Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister ❤🎉😅
Mars (South Garden) is looking unbelievable. It's a bit like an artist who starts with a blank canvas - it is a slow building of colour and texture, with each stroke of the paint the idea develops but changes depending on what happens with the paint. I think the South garden development has been so quick!! and as you video in that area is becoming a backdrop to your projects. Loving all of it and just always excited to watch the development of your beautiful space. Love how the tree planting is a family affair- precious memories. Thank you again for all the effort you put into making your channel - much appreciated.
This time of year I so enjoy living vicariously through you and yours! Here in Phoenix Arizona the temps have been ranging 115+ daily with night temps in the low 90’s. My poor plants! 🥀 It’s so nice to see your thriving gardens. Congratulations Benjamin on your swimming progress!
I love watching the kids with their shovels helping plant.They are growing so much, they are at that age they just shoot up.....such a beautiful family. ❤❤❤❤
You and your family are so dang precious and I look forward to your videos EVERY day!!! When ya'all were all sweating and burning up and your youngin's were just having so much fun, made my day!!!! Will Birch grow in Tennessee I wonder?!
I would love to know what “dry heat” feels like. Our humidity is almost impossible this year. Some days you feel like you can’t breathe. No way can we plant anything right now, it would take 2 holes, 1 for the plant, and 1 for the gardener!
Agreed! What does it feel like?? I’m in Ontario, Canada with 60, 70, 90% humidity in the forecast. My friend in Colorado told me today they have 11%. Said it feels like your nose hairs get scorched 😂
@@alekgust It feels like opening your hot oven, except all over your body, not just your face. 😏 It is easier to cool off in the shade when it’s dry heat, and you sure don’t sweat as much, but it’s still HOT.
I grew up around where she is in eastern Oregon, and I now live in the humid Maine coast. Its 60% humidity on average, but I’ve also experienced Hawaii at about 70-80% humidity… I prefer the humidity. Probably because I have extremely dry skin, so anytime I went outside in the summer as a kid my skin was practically falling off my face (especially in wildfire season when the air quality was bad, and we also felt like we couldn’t breathe). However, humidity comes with more bugs, and it tends to intensify any unpleasant smells lingering nearby, so if I had normal skin I would probably not mind going back home to the desert.
I am not sure why but I LOVE watching the auger, especially when Aaron lifts it and reverse's the dirt. It is so FUN watching it spray out. I guess it's the little things in life, HA! 🥰
Same here!
16:54 "I can go under water!" That is fantastic Benjamin! 🥰
Your gardens are so beautiful, all your hard work has certainly paid off. It must be so rewarding to just walk outside and see all the beauty you have created.
Weeds are so smart! They grow near flowers that they look like.
I LOVE that planting a tree is just a matter-of-fact part of Samantha and Benjamin’s day.
Hi~ As soon as I saw them near the tree going in with their shovels, I thought... What fun memories they'll have looking back after the trees have matured. However, Benjamin's excitement for underwater swimming with the fam may be a stronger memory! So cute!🙋
@@loriboyce942 its such a delightful thing to see.
I really love Benjamin can name the plants. That's so awesome 😎
Thx Guys frm SoCal zone 10.
I love it when the whole family gets involve planting. ❤
Samantha using her foot to push down the shovel into the ground at 13:50 like an adult was adorable. A family affair. How sweet. ❤
I noticed that too! She’s a pro already!
I loved that too!!!
Just like Laura
The family that plants together, stays together!!
Love when all four of you gatden together. Kids are getting so big. Love love the birch tree. Looks beautiful
Great team work.
Enjoy your swimming, I grew up with a pool, i have great family memories.❤❤❤❤

Please!

I never thought of it like before but that's a nice way of thinking

So much accomplished before the heat wave descends! I love that Laura shares her strategy for dealing with the climate, a gardener's constant opponent.
Well done Benjamin, swimming under water is fun, maybe one day you'll go snorkeling and see tropical fish swimming with you.

Wow. Thats yr first family tree I saw Laura. So pleasant to watch samantha & Benjamin with their shovel
Loved the drive by update of the 10 challenge containers in the beginning of the video. They are all looking awesome!
Yes Laura....keep stressing how different humidity makes it.....everyone thinks I'm crazy when I say I cannot garden because it's 94 degrees and 100% humidity.
I understand that 😂
I live in New Hampshire, humidity has been dreadful this year
Hi~ I feel the same way! It's been BRUTAL here in central Florida! I can only go out in the very early morning or late in the day.🙋
I live in Iowa & there is just no way it can be done. You sweat so much you can’t get anything done because you’re always wiping it out of your eyes 😖
@dianegougelet1829 I honestly don't understand what mankind has done to the environment. It's stifling at 7a most mornings.

It was a hoot seeing Samantha mimicking you with putting her foot on the shovel to dig!
Whew! Y'all get more done in one day than I do in a whole month! And boy-o-boy, do those kids know how to use a shovel! That's great!
Would love to see an evening tour or even just a few pictures with the Hartley lit up!
Love this idea, that would be so pretty to see 😊
Just love seeing the kids helping😃 Thank you for the awesome video!!❤
Beautiful family! So blessed to see your family blossom.
I love seeing the whole family planting a tree 😊 And Samantha with her sleeves rolled up is just adorable ❤
Thank you sooooooooooooo much!! I love watching trees being planted. You can plant anytime please. You can plant as many as you desire anytime😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
I love seeing the kids help the two of you plant!!! 🥰

and caring for the land. Bravo!

Seeing the 4 of you planting that linden together warmed my heart. ❤️ 🥹
There's something about a family planting a tree together, that pulls at my heartstrings.
Watching you for years. Waiting to see what you will plant in the front of your house entrance. Thank you for sharing
Yes, I've been waiting to see what goes in that front bed too!
Great job as a family 👪...I'm jealous of your bobcat auger ❤
I love how the children are so happy to help with the planting. One day they will look at that tree and remember how they helped plant it. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! Have a great afternoon cooling off 🤗❤️
Way to go Benjamin! Under water, awesome 👏
You have a great family all working together in the garden. so inspiring!
That tree behind you Laura is so gorgeous!!!
I love watching your children planting with you. Samantha has her own shovel. When she had her foot on that shovel digging it was so cute. Soon cute. Seen mama do it. Lol

The El Niño Chitalpa blooms look exactly like a pink streptocarpus.

You might try misters for the chickens in the heat of the day!
They do have misters for the chickens.

Awwww. Looks amazing. Have fun swimming.. The kids make me smile.. 💜🐝🐝🦋🦋🦋💚💚
The chitalpas are gorgeous!! The tree planting as a family is memorable. Those burgundy hollyhocks- stunning! Thank you for another great video!
At 5:06, I’m peeking the competition containers behind you! Number 4 is still my favorite!!
Yeah Benjamin you can swim under water! Great job!
It’s awesome that your kids wait so patiently to go swimming.
Love the birch trees!
The birch tree is really lovely.

Can't believe the changes you've made. Absolutely beautiful!
Those sedums in the pots are absolutely beautiful 😍🌸
Y’all stay safe out there…my goodness!
This time of year I so enjoy living vicariously through you and yours! Here in Phoenix Arizona the temps have been ranging 115+ daily with night temps in the low 90’s. My poor plants! 🥀 It’s so nice to see your thriving gardens.
Congratulations Benjamin on your swimming progress!
I love watching the kids with their shovels helping plant.They are growing so much, they are at that age they just shoot up.....such a beautiful family. ❤❤❤❤
“And you know what, I can go underwater! 😃👍”-Benjamin 😂 love his commentary as always
Everything takes time that is worth it!! I love watching your family working together
Dear Laura, could you talk us through a tour of all your grasses...cause their now almost all in their prime...thanks a lot❤
You and your family are so dang precious and I look forward to your videos EVERY day!!! When ya'all were all sweating and burning up and your youngin's were just having so much fun, made my day!!!! Will Birch grow in Tennessee I wonder?!

That birch tree brings to mind Anne of Green Gables 🥰
