    The new plants are really pretty. I can't help noticing each time you show that area how sweet the little lady statue looks out there. It provides some other interests out there and gives it life. Love it!

    Sheila in Chattanooga, TN here . . . WHAT A WONDERFUL SUN SHOWER! My grandmother always said, "If it rains with the sun shining that means it will rain at that same time the next day." I am amazed at how often that happens; I always watch for it the next day and smile as I think about my Nanny.

    So happy you are getting so much rain this season. I know that doesn’t always happen for you and you enjoy it so much. Maybe it’s Mother Nature saying “oh Laura has so many gorgeous things going in, let me help her out with the watering! ♥️

He’s also wanting to help bring them back in the house. Makes me so happy to see the next generation excited to grow thing and help.

    Good morning GA fam... I watch Laura and I'm jealous...so envious. I can't work in my yard/garden the way I used to or want to.. I suffer from something called ankylosing spondylitis and my body hurts so so bad every day and just seems to be getting worse. I live vicariously through Laura and her beautiful gardens and just imagine what my garden and yard would look like if I was able to do things still.

We are inland so we don’t have that high humidity levels so I think you’ll be ok with it once it’s established. It smells absolutely beautiful when in bloom. She has it mixed with a honeysuckle vine and they both do fabulously. Love the new plants!
