A big home run for this year's plantings at the college, Laura! Absolutely gorgeous! I also have to complement the caretaker of the gardens for a job well done! It takes a lot of care to get this kind of success and awesomeness from this kind of show of art in the gardens! Bravo! Well done to all who maintain these spaces and a big ovation to the creator! My hat goes off to you Laura! Well done!
P opportunities
Did I just hear Laura say she wants to plant a little less?! Who is this imposter! haha
Looks incredible and it's perfection!
@Befunkymonkey ~ 😂🤣😂🤣😂 "Who is this imposter" Too funny!
💙💖I AGREE!!💙💖
I think the sweet Caroline is just perfect! No need to plant less
I agree I love the color. The jazz berry just couldn’t keep up.
SUPERBENA & SWEET CAROLINA just took off!!
Yes, I totally agree, not less.
My daughter & I took a stroll thru the college grounds three weeks ago. Such color & textures, well taken care of. It was a delightful morning
Honestly I love the potato vine it makes that area look Lush and Rich! That area with the flower beds looks so so welcoming! Well done 👍
I agree. . .can't go wrong with the potato vines. They make us look like pro gardeners. hahaha
Must wonderful for nearby neighbors to walk the campus and enjoy such an epic display of plants.
I love that you are exposing younger people to gardening, with the visual glory and lushness of this riot of colours. Many people never see a garden like this and will only walk past it in a public setting with no time to stop and check the display out. If I were a student there I’d be taking photos daily and dreaming of the chance to do the same thing one day.
I absolutely love that pop of green in this bed its so pretty, it reminds me of a lazy river
The college containers would be the perfect opportunity to implement Aaron's one plant per pot approach. Either one plant in smaller containers, or one variety in bigger ones. I think it lends itself to commercial settings where two many varieties can look a bit messy
I love the sweet potato Vine, they scream cool weather because of their beautiful green color. All the flowers that y'all planted at the college are sooooo beautiful. Love them all.❤️❤️❤️
Wow ! Those beds are B E A U T I F U L and as nice as the flowering plants are lovely, those sweet potato vines are fabulous, they give the beds an anchor, i love them 🌺🌺
I love the idea of using the sweet potato vines towards the back of a pot and letting it be a lush backdrop. I’m going to try that in my pots next year.
Every time I see the before and after in the planting beds that you do,being at home or in this case at the collage,am just amazed. You have such a talent to make garden look amazing.
I love how the gardens have grown. I agree with you maybe put the vines in the back and the color in the front. The vines will shine even from the back.
WOW WOW WOW! Yes the sweet potato vine it is too aggressive. And a huge congrats to the college grounds crew!
Great job with the planning and plantings and huge kudos to Rosa for taking such great care of everything during the hot summer months🌸
I was just wondering about the college last week. It really looks nice. Love that main entrance bed. It’s spectacular. Yes. Less sweet potato vines next year. They’re beautiful, but really crowd out the flowering plants. Color combinations are spot on this year. Great job, Laura. 😊🦋💖🕊
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE all the PURPLE, especially against the chartreuse of the sweet potato vine. Absolutely striking!!
The sweet potato vine has a shrub vibe. I love it. Everything looks so pretty.
Just down right beautiful. What a grand display of God's creation! Thank you for the tour, breathtaking. Love to you all.
WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!! Laura, those sweet potato vines are the show stoppers this year, AMAZING!
Great job designing these beds.
Beautiful job Garden Answer crew and Rosa. In my humble opinion more simplistic pots are more relaxing to the eye and the plants can really shine and not completely so much. Also, the sweet potato vine seems much more understated in the pots that are in shade. Less light keeps it in check with out the need to trim. Can’t wait to see next years beds.
I agree that she puts too many plants and too many different plants in pots. I have found that, in order to do well, superbells need to be alone in a pot.
Less sweet potato vine, more of that beautiful blue verbena! It is amazing how big the vines got! Planting the At Last roses was such a great idea-love the color 😊
Good morning Laura. You did such a great job for your community College! I agree that think your single planters would be nice with the sweet potato vines in rhe back . Hugs from N.C..❤️
I just can’t believe with the heat you have that these plants do so well. They are well taken care of. Looks beautiful.
Everything looks beautiful, as does everything you create! As gardeners we always see what we will do differently next time and I respectfully agree, less sweet potato vine. While beautiful, they have become the stars and not the backup singers!! (What about a lemon coral sedum (or two) in place of those sweet potato vines, at least at the front edges of the beds. Beautiful color but scale is better, so as not to overpower/dominate the flowering plants like the sweet potato vines do.) I always love to see what you pair together, you are an inspiration to this 35+ year gardener!
That sweet potato vine is showing off big time! I absolutely love it❤️
The canna lilies look fantastic! They are perfect for the brutal heat and sun, as long as they get enough water! Cannas are a staple for summer landscaping in Walt Disney World because they are so well suited for the heat and sun! We love how they add a tropical feel to the gardens!
Yes, love those cannas !!! and they are used a great deal around Atlanta too both in residential and commercial gardens ... now if we could just figure out how to get rid of the leaf rollers - UGH !!!! it's always something in gardening, eh?
That is so good to know. My garden struggled this year in zone 9b. . . i might try those Cannas for next year.
I love all the sweet potato vine! When you planted them it inspired me to do something similar and I’ve enjoyed the lush look all summer!
Just need to say - the coral and yellow canas are so beautiful together. Enjoyed this tour. Beautiful! Good job!
It's nice to see different applications of plants - larger scale spaces with different colors, textures, and heights - successes and failures - lots of inspiration, great job 👍👏🎉😊
Beautiful color combinations in these displays. How lucky these college students & staff are to take those colors & plants in everyday on campus. Wonderful job!
I really appreciate you sharing things that did well and things that didn’t. It makes me feel better knowing everyone struggles with plants sometimes lol
Greetings, Laura, from Windermere Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸
I'm amazed at how wonderful the college still looks.
I love the Carolina vines, the staff there is diligent. Too bad on the bud worms 😡
Good job on dividing the canna bulbs. In Florida they are used in a lot of landscaping 👍
The students who are just coming in for the first time are feeling so welcome by all of those beautiful flowers 👩🌾👍
Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾👍
☕️Good morning! The plants are so full and so beautiful. A beautiful display for so many to enjoy 🌻
The gym bed is sensational 😱😍 it reminds me of that secret garden you showed us, back at the Grand Hotel. River of color! Well, congrats to you and Amy on making this happen! That was monumental work 💪🏼👍🏼
So nice of you to give prompts to Amy- I forgot she was a huge part of this project and we can’t forget Rosa either LoL.. all three of the ladies did a fantastic job! ✨🤍👏
@@alw5101 exactly plenty is the east part. Rosa did well.
You can’t go wrong with cana lilies, Laura. Looking awesome every location 🥰
How gorgeous Laura! A real spectacle! Stunning!
I think everything looks beautiful. The sweet potato vine looks so fresh and green, just perfect. I also planted the snow drift and it did not do well for me. It gets leggy and scraggly and not a soft texture like the other supertunias. I had to pull it out.
What a spectacular show Laura!! Please create an illustrated book with some of your favorite designs!! Have you ever considered doing something like that? Wow!!! That Beyond Midnight is out of this world!!I will find and use that annual in next years' plantings! Thanks for this awesome upload.
Beyond Midnight (Sweet Potato Vine) is a Amazing plant on it's own! @ 29:50 > WoW. It doesn't 'need' anything else with it.
A pot with just that in it > that's how I would plant it, in My yard. (Maybe a WHITE Canna in the middle ) (large pot / hanging basket / on a balcony)
> Most of those pots/planters are too small, they don't need 4/5/6 Different plants, it's too much they all complete with each other too much and only the most aggressive plants win.
Most of the other Flowering plants don't stand a chance with any of the sweet potato Vines....within 4 /5 feet of them. Less is more, in my yard.
I so appreciate these longer videos. I cannot even imagine how much work it is for you Thank you so much for doing this!!
So pretty! I see what you are saying about the potato vine, maybe just bump them behind the salvia? Gorgeous!
Good morning, Laura ☕️ What an impressive show of color 🌺🌸🌼😍 Those Cana’s are my favorite!
Everything is lovely . Remember that nature is not perfect ,it does what it does. 😊
Yes, definitely the sweet potato vine in the pots should be planted towards the back 🪴🥔🥔🍠 Gorgeous red sure fire begonia 🪴🪴 Awesome job Laura at the College.
Wow, what a way to end the tour! That gymnasium bed is absolutely stunning with the roses, sweet potato vine! Just beautiful! You, Aaron and the college caretakers have made the college landscaping an attraction!
Hi Laura. Absolutely stunning. So beautiful. They've done so well. What a difference from when you first planted them all. Gorgeous! You do such an amazing job. Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing to us all. 👍. Take care. Looking forward to your next videos. Happy Gardening! 🍁🌱⚘🌿🌸❤
I planted Supertunia Vista Bubblegum and Supertunia Vista Jazzberry in the same stone pot (4 of each, 8 total). To my surprise, the Jazzberry exploded with more blooms than the Bubblegum!! The two colors combined made for a very stunning floral show😃
My fav was the container with the begonias and calladiums. The colors are so beautiful.
I love the “ before and after” pics….. a perfect description/ explication….. thank you
Laura thank you! I am a new gardener, and had a bed of patunias. One day they all died! I googled all over and could not find any real advice as to why. I sit down to watch this episode, and Laura has my Garden Answer! You explained the holes and dropping and how to fix it. I went outside and there it was! Holes and droppings among my sad petunia patch. I will be treating them and hope for a few more blooms before the weather turns on us over here in Colorado! Thank you!!
I’m here for the toucan coral and yellow proven winners get to work and name it after Laura 🥰❤️🥰❤️
I love the purple and green look with all the sweet potato vine. It looks clean and pretty. Not too many things to pull your eyes in different direction. Just lovely and cool looking
Laura, if the college doesn't save the canna rhizomes/tubers, you might want to put a flag by the beautiful coral one with the yellow edges so you can save it in your root cellar for next year. That one is particularly beautiful! Except for a few issues here and there, the plants at the college look fabulous! 🤗💐🐝🦋
This video was posted 8 minutes ago and already 800 views! Just enjoying my coffee with my fellow fans.
Yes, a little less of the sweet potato vine. Maybe trade out some of it for the lemon coral sedum in its place, especially around the edges.. But I have to say, this is one of the most stunning displays of color I've ever seen. I LOVE the colors!!! My personal favorite....coral and shades of purple.
Love the main entrance and agree that the sweet potato vine needs to be tamed somewhat. The contrast of limey green, blue and coral-orange is really eye catching. All the planting areas are really pretty. (You’ve inspired me to grow some coral cannas next year).
You guys did a great job with the annuals, and I love the way they spill over and soften the edges. I do think, though, that you need more winter interest throughout (but I'm guessing that might not be in their budget). Very well done 💚
Wow what a stunning collection of plants love the choices of colours together 🥰🥰🥰
I was thinking how this gig of yours really showcases so many of your skills! I do love the chartreuse and purple combination by the gym....stunning!
Wow, Laura, you knocked it out of the park! Everything looks amazing, so colorful and vibrant. That’s just what these spaces needed, they were so stark looking before you came along. Bravo!
Laura: "False!" Kudos to the editor. That was perfectly executed! :D
I always love going for a walk with you, you picked a beautiful day! God bless 😊👍👍
It's all lush and beautiful! Lots of pretty colors! Question, why do you not plant more shrubs? Maybe some evergreens and winter interest.
College plantings look gorgeous as usual! My Gaura looked very sad by the middle of July so I cut them back and they are now putting on the most beautiful fall display (Zone 5a).
Thanks for the update. I love seeing those tiny plants burst onto the scene. Great job! You help us gardeners in ways you don’t even know. ❤️
Good Morning! 🌞🌻 Those college plantings are gorgeous!! I love what you do for your college & community!! 😃❤️💚🌿
Love, love, love the area by the gym with the roses. It's not so stuffed. For me, I look at that area and find it more restful and peaceful versus other areas that are crowded with plants. All the areas are very pretty, you guys did a terrific job.
The sweet potato vine looks superb because it contrasts against the darker greens, the Superbena is spectacular, and the mums will be the amazing surprise of fall, I love everything about it.
Wow, how absolutely gorgeous, the gardens of the Community College. Congratulations to you, Aaron, your friend who assisted you with the planting and all those who maintained the gardens.
Everything looks absolutely gorgeous! No need to plant less:-) I planted this supertunia Vista jazzberry this year in my window boxes in the front. They did not perform at all. Even the lady at our Nursery said there's did not do well either:-(
So glad we got to see the roses. I was wondering how they were growing. I have one rose bush and all our rain and humidity this summer really did a number on it. I’ll just have to consider it a loss for this year. Can’t keep on top of the leaf fungus on lots of my plants this year. Our Supertunias never make it this late in the season. The campus looks awesome. I love the sweet potato vine, but maybe not as much in the pots.
What a show stopper! I would love to have that overgrown landscape in my garden 🥰
Fabulous college ground! You know what I liked the best is you telling us how you would improve for next year.
Your so much fun and so honest. For the life of me I don’t know how you remember all the names of the plants.
Well done girl
That school is beautiful as ever u out do yourself everytime
Stunning! I always love an update. Excellent work. Keep a ton of sweet potato vine. It works. Kudos to the woman that waters and cares for these beds. She did a great job! Thank you.
I love that it's sooo full and lush. That dark purple with the bright limey green 😍 💜
Just wow on all the plants you did at the college just so so beautiful the sweet potato vine is just so huge and beautiful. Just love ever were you planted beautiful. I am a person that's fuss with my plants just like plants been clean and tidy. Love the roses so beautiful.
You (and your helpers) did a fantastic job. I love the pops of color in that concrete jungle. They soften it right up. I appreciate your ability to look at a planting and mention things you'd do differently, or what did and didn't work. Thank you for the follow up tour.
The planting beds at the college turned out beautiful. Very helpful to see the progression throughout the growing season. They are reminiscent of the beds at some of the cottages on Mackinac Island which Jack Barnwell designed. Thank you for all the inspiration.
I would have loved going to a school with this much beauty surrounding me. So peaceful. I’m sure the students really appreciate the effort. Sitting among the beautiful trees, flowers and greenery would be divine. Nice job!
Oh yay, I was hoping we would get one last look at these spaces! It all looks wonderful, and props to Rosa and whoever else took care of these all summer. I've never used sweet potato vine in my landscape before, I only have experience with it in containers, but after seeing how beautiful those beds look I made myself a note to try it in the flowerbeds around my house next year. Thanks for the beauty and inspiration!
That front bed at the very beginning is just breathtaking, wow! And my favorite container planting is the begonias with the caladium, just a perfect combination. Well done!
I wouldn’t change it next year, the sweet potato plants are perfect. I just love everything about the different bed. This year is the winner. Great job.
Looks so great, Laura! Those beds add so much to the campus walkways.
That's the right word fresh 👏. It's soo full of life! I love the green but that purple 💜 is my eye candy along with that green!! Your eye candy I'm going off a limb here is green!! You did soo well with not planning. I don't like to plan because that's were the art falls in! I took a crap ton of perennials and just carved out this long half parentheses shape and I had something different blooming
Superbena has been the star of my hanging planters this year. It formed such a huge, thick mat & looks incredible!
I love the way the first bed turned out with the bright green and purple. The pink was totally unnecessary! 😊
That first bed was absolutely beautiful Laura! I loved it that full with all the plants mingling together!
You all made it through the heat of summer! Today when you posted this video was your last day in the 100's! Smooth sailing into the 80's on down. Great tour of the college. Thanks for including the before shots, too.
Morning all. Wow! I'd say over all, great success! I was hoping to have another peek at the college plantings. I'd say you really outdid yourself Laura. Well Done. Thanks so much for all you do and sharing your experience with us. BTW... How's Mom (Susan) doing? It's been a while since we've gotten an update on her foot. Enjoy your day. xo
My Guara looks like this too - I think its the heat, I live in AL and we've had several weeks of 100+, of course we have high humidity. I've noticed that the last week or so it's looking better and the temps are dropping - we've had lots of rain and overcast so hence lower temps and better looking Guara!
I adore all that sweet potatoe vine. That chartreuse just keeps giving a vibrant healthy cool look and it’s so so so pretty with any of the purples!!
I love the sure fire begonias!
Loooooove the sweet potato vines, You did a FANTASTIC job.
Oh my goodness I wonder if Laura was there on Labor Day morning? I was there that evening and the plants were gorgeous!! We did miss a few of those plantings but the ones we found were super grand! Such a beautiful campus. On Tuesday morning got to visit Andrews Seed Company and what a neat shop!! The stop in Ontario was awesome! Laura and Aaron keep up the good work!! By the way I am from Southern Illinois.
I really like seeing these progress video tours. It is nice to see how the plantings progressed 😊
The lime sweet potato vine with the varying purples and blues is such a beautiful color combination
Good morning everyone! Personally, I love those potato vines, they bring this feeling of order while the rest of the plants go wild. I would plant the same amount or more the next year 😅
oh my ... amazing what a couple of months can make in the growth of a plant !!! a job well done ... everything looks spectacular. And yes, I do love, LoVe, LOVE the Cleopatra cannas. Discovered them 4 or 5 years ago at a downtown Atlanta nursery and even dug & relocated them when we moved 2 years ago, and they are doing spectacular! Not too many plants that I love both the interested provided by both foliage and blooms!! The college is blessed to have you (and Aaron and Amy and all) to dress them up every year ...
