Omg the cactus falling on camera was hilarious 🤣 I guess this is a opportunity to make your garden even more beautiful after the maintenance! So exited to see how it goes :D
Such a different spring walk about. 🥰 I have to say, I miss your old garden because it was so spectacular with all the roses & colors behind your waterfall. But I really love your new garden & the under the sea theme you’ve gone with. It really fits your personality so much! So fun!
I have a lot of succulents in Southern CA, too, and I've been surprised at how well they've done when they're all used to full sun and much warmer temperatures.
A true gardener - we had one plant before and now we have two!! All in all I’d say that garden emerged relatively unscathed, considering the crazy weather. It’ll do my soul satisfaction to see the clean-up though. 💚🌵😌
i love the rawness and so real about having a great graden having weeds and disaster at the same but i love ur attitude of being so real ❤❤❤. in no time it will be serene and beatiful again like you always do Miss Laura
I would love to see the clean-up. It is so relaxing to watch. After seeing your yard, I feel better about my own. The weeds are ridiculous!! My nephew cleaned up quite a few in the ground, but I have to get after the ones in my pots. It is still so rainy and dark here in Sacramento. I am hoping we move to sunnier days soon.
Laura,I have a thought. I enjoy going back and watching some of your older videos. Just this week I watched the one from 5 years ago and Carlsbad in which you had not touched a particular spot by a driveway in 2 years. For some reason that is one of my favorite older videos. Anyway, you cut the stem off of a leggy crest and lay it flat for being a bit of a circle or a wreath as you called it. I'm wondering if you could maybe do that with your sunburst aeonium crest? Maybe cut the stem down and lie it on the ground. You have all those air roots - maybe other roots will form and more of the plan will get water and nutrients that way? Just wondering about that.
Laura is all of us in our So California gardens right now. I keep looking at my succulent babies outside and saying “please let it stop raining for just a few days!” We need the rain, but we need some sun too!
your garden looks fantastic, but can mother nature puhleeeeze turn off the water faucet??? it would be nice to have it spread out a bit more over the course of the year, but i guess she's here and enjoying herself... oy... i haven't talked to one socal gardener who isn't lamenting about the state of our gardens.. it's almost april for pete's sake, lol... but you are right: this too shall pass and we will be complaining about the heat, lol... and at least the weeds looks very happy!! a clean up party sounds great! i hope you video that, it will be fun to watch! here's to sunshiny days soon!! 🥰🥰🥰
It’s autumn (fall) here in Melbourne Australia. I’m dealing with mealy bugs, ugh last year hardly any but this time ugh. It’s the ants they have repopulated and we gave lots of leaf matter too after some windy days. Thankfully a whip and a chair can get it all back under control ❤
As a new sub, I must say I really enjoy your videos. I'm in ohio and getting ready to make a succulent garden with mostly all cold hardy succulents and a few that I will bring in during the winter.
I'm in the Bay area. After yesterday's massive storm the detritus is overwhelming but none of my weeds are as big as yours. Hate the pine tree needles.
All my potted succulents are suffering in this extreme socal weather. I can't tell if they're just getting too much water or they have some kind of disease😢. Looking at your garden and how well it's doing makes me think the latter is more likely 😢
Love your walk-abouts! Love your positive attitude and how you can poke fun at yourself. You continue to be a source of inspiration. Give Bentley the Dog a pat for me and continued best wishes for you and your family.
Love walk about Wednesdays. Found my first casualty. Was doing great, (I think it was a Lola) but found her mostly rotted today. Hopefully can save the new growth in the center. If not, I will have to replace. She's a common one, but so, so pretty.
Loved this walkabout Laura! I’ve missed them and this was just so raw and honest. If it’s just an hour something bad might happen 😂 Just need Bentley to pee..😂 You’re so funny ❤ it it was on the lemon or lime it would help😅 Please please bring us with you on clean up day!! ❤ Glad you are feeling better I noticed your voice was different ❤
Yes! I want to see that and also I want to see her dig out the mangave and move it into the blue glow's spot. And then i want to see how she repairs/touches up all the disturbed top dressing!
I'd say your and Bentley's walkabout was very surprisingly successful after this crazy Spring in California! Just think of the detritus as Spring compost and breathe through it. Be cool like Bentley.
I'm right there with ya! My lantana are being taken over by long grass weeds, they're fully infiltrated (and on a slope that I can't get near until things dry out, otherwise I'll just keep sliding around), arrrgh!
That sunburst on the chair looks half-half. Then after that, was is that name of the one you thought was rotting but may be just growing that way?? I’d love one.
I would love to see a full day worth of video of you cleaning up the back garden!!
Even that poor, fallen cactus agrees with you, Laura. Hilarious! 😂🥰
That crested Myrtillo cactus under the Aloe plicatilis is crying out for it's own pot.
Omg the cactus falling on camera was hilarious 🤣 I guess this is a opportunity to make your garden even more beautiful after the maintenance! So exited to see how it goes :D
I always enjoy your Walkabout Wednesdays. And thank you, dear Bentley, for joining us.
Love your honesty! Daily struggles of keeping up with a garden. Right!

I also miss the old garden.
I've had so many umbrella disasters with my succulents. Girl, I feel you.
I love that succulents can be shared. What a wonderful bond that is with other gardeners.
I have a lot of succulents in Southern CA, too, and I've been surprised at how well they've done when they're all used to full sun and much warmer temperatures.
Your garden is breathtaking, Ms. Laura. Glad you're feeling better!

Sorry for the many typos😑
I Love how Bently on queue wags his tail...😆

This really shows just how much effort you put into your garden to keep it looking so good. 3 weeks without attention and it looks a hot mess!
I love seeing your garden runamuck...it makes me feel normal😂😂😂
Same!! 😂
your garden looks fantastic, but can mother nature puhleeeeze turn off the water faucet??? it would be nice to have it spread out a bit more over the course of the year, but i guess she's here and enjoying herself... oy... i haven't talked to one socal gardener who isn't lamenting about the state of our gardens.. it's almost april for pete's sake, lol... but you are right: this too shall pass and we will be complaining about the heat, lol... and at least the weeds looks very happy!! a clean up party sounds great! i hope you video that, it will be fun to watch! here's to sunshiny days soon!! 🥰🥰🥰

I laughed so hard when you tossed the "spawn of satan" over the fence into the golf course!! 😂
Love your garden! 💚💚💚

Welcome aboard!
I would love to see Laura’s old garden , did the house owners removed all the plants ?
I have many videos from the old garden! I took many of the plants with me.
I'm in the Bay area. After yesterday's massive storm the detritus is overwhelming but none of my weeds are as big as yours. Hate the pine tree needles.
Wow the pachypodium crest look amazing 😍
Your yard is still beautiful. I know your itching to get in there to clean it up!!❤
All my potted succulents are suffering in this extreme socal weather. I can't tell if they're just getting too much water or they have some kind of disease😢. Looking at your garden and how well it's doing makes me think the latter is more likely 😢

I love Lola!
I would love to watch you clean up the mess❤❤❤
The variegated miliia (sp?) is my favorite. So glad to see it sprouting new leaves! It was stunning in your old garden, hope to see it shine again.
Bentley's tail wagging when you start talking
I hope we get to see the clean-up party🎉💚💚💚
I second that! Sounds fun.😁
Loved this walkabout Laura!
I’ve missed them and this was just so raw and honest.

Just need Bentley to pee..😂
You’re so funny ❤ it it was on the lemon or lime it would help😅
Please please bring us with you on clean up day!! ❤
Glad you are feeling better I noticed your voice was different ❤
It’s not to bad I would enjoy pulling the weeds out too. I love the fish statue and all the Mexican statues you have it looks charming
Please show us when and how you're going to remove the blue glow. Thanks!
Yes! I want to see that and also I want to see her dig out the mangave and move it into the blue glow's spot. And then i want to see how she repairs/touches up all the disturbed top dressing!
LOL...girrrl you had me cracking up!!
I'd say your and Bentley's walkabout was very surprisingly successful after this crazy Spring in California! Just think of the detritus as Spring compost and breathe through it. Be cool like Bentley.
I WISH mine was this great, mine is so overgrown with weeds i cannot cope
I'm right there with ya! My lantana are being taken over by long grass weeds, they're fully infiltrated (and on a slope that I can't get near until things dry out, otherwise I'll just keep sliding around), arrrgh!
Starting to see how once youtubers reach that 100 thousand mark they stop putting out videos like they use to do. Enjoy your rest . 🌵🌵
ROFL. So funny that you got the cactus falling over on camera
Amazing how fast the weeds are growing. Did you find the puffer fish Talavera pot at Planter’s Paradise?
I’m near by and my garden isn’t doing so well with all the rain too.
I can relate to the weeds.
I can't wait to see you clean up the garden!! (Hint-hint)
Love walkabout Wednesdays!
Laura miss you so much hoping you all are fabulous!!!
As much as we dislike weeds in our gardens, they probably slurped up all the rain water and prevented your plants from rotting
This would take one person sooooo long to do on their own I hope you do invite the crew and us along to see it get polished up!
Missed a few videos..and the first one I watched it"s Laura at her best..gosh how I missed your humor..😀😀😀😀😀
That sunburst on the chair looks half-half.
Then after that, was is that name of the one you thought was rotting but may be just growing that way?? I’d love one.
Aren't those lemons? I've heard Laura call them limes before. Share the knowledge....
i miss your walkabout!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my god! :P
👍💪🤗
😊😊😊
🙋
🌸
i luv your HOT MESS!! lol😅😅😅
