Thank you so much, Aaron, for spending all that time editing, 20+ hours, so we could see that overview video! I had no idea it took so much work. It was wonderful and very much appreciated! ❤😊
And . . . if you cannot find a shower curtain rod in white, Home Depot used to carry 'slit' sleeves in white which one can just slip over the rod and cut to size.
The Nestle Tollhouse cookie recipe was in an episode on Friends. Phoebe also said it was her Grandmothers recipe but it got destroyed and Monica was trying to recreate it from taste. Then Phoebe told her the name with a French pronunciation and Monica realized it was the tollhouse recipe and showed her the recipe on the back of the chocolate chips. And yep, Phoebe said that was it!
This is a garden channel, we're into maintenance. From flowers, seed starting, veg, water features, fertilizer, pest, etc. My neighbors asked me once while I was out in the garden if I was finished yet. It is never finished... it is how we decide to spend our time. And the reward of our efforts is worth it.
Cannot ever imagine Not watching your videos. An elderly English lady living in Carcassonne France. No longer have a once owned property full of mature 12 different tree species.Plane trees in a bowling alley. On different levels lawns, walled gardens. One with a sublime Liban Cedar 200 yrs old . So following Aaron's love for planting trees. Your youthful energy has enchanted me over the years.
You guys are such a part of my day that I feel safe saying that as long as you make content I will watch it. I get up in the morning and immediately look for a new video, hubby puts a cup of coffee in my hand and I slowly wake up while watching what project is being tackled that day. This routine does not even change for vacation - the only difference is I use my iPad. 🙂
Laura, we have a pond that’s been so beautiful to look at and such a headache to maintain. The fish load multiplied too fast and we started having ducks living in it. We have never had clear water since. One of the certified aquascape contractor came out and we are waiting for a quote to get our pond redone. The duck population has since drastically declined which will help.Just like Aaron mentioned in the video- we need them to come and fix it and do it right. But I want him to know that our pond was professionally installed 20 years ago ( not a dyi project) and this technology that you guys now have did not exist! We can’t wait to get an aquascape pond. Thank you for posting all the details about your pond that’s what encouraged us to find this certified contractor. We live in NH and he has been on U tube videos with Gregg. We are sooooo excited to have found someone to help us! Thank you a million times over ❤
Yes! I had a similar situation at our home in Pennsylvania. Aquascape is awesome! It’ll be wonderful and going through what you have you’ll totally appreciate it! 👍👍
We dug our own pond over 25 years ago and we still love it. We don't have that kind of money to pay other people to do that. Our pond is still beautiful and peaceful.
We had our professionally installed pond removed several years ago. We had heron that would visit every day and have a sushi feast. We tried everything to deter them to no avail.
We have a pond for a few years now. Last summer , 2 ducks visited it . Well I chased them away , using a broom and shooing them away. I did not harm them at all. They never came back.
The best part is the “realness” of your channel! Life isn’t perfect and I personally am attracted to you discovering obstacles and learning how to deal with stuff because we all have to do that too! Thank you for showing us “everything” ❤
Laura, watching this week’s recap video you had a problem with your outdoor.artificial Christmas trees blowing over in the wind. I also had this problem until I stopped using the tree stand and instead drove rebar into the ground and placed the tree over the rebar. Now no problems even on windy days. Works really well.
You guys know the Nestle Tollhouse thing was a storyline on Friends?! Monica is trying to guess at Phoebe’s Grandma’s recipe and it turns out to be the Nestle recipe on the bag! So good. 😂
Thank you, I love these Sunday morning recaps! There hasn’t been a video that you guys have made that I don’t enjoy. I love conversations where there is the friendly and loving banter and no one is trying to over talk each other. You two are such a joy. Merry Christmas 🌲⛄️
I loved this recap, especially Laura's description of her enjoyment of cleaning up the pond (which did look laborious & cold). I was touched to hear about her dad's sweet warning about gator drowning.
Thanks for all your time and work on that video, Aaron! It was beautifully done, so helpful to see all the spaces, and one of my favorite videos on RUclips!
Good morning, Laura and Aaron, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b I agree with so many viewers that the Look Back video is excellent. I've been watching since May 2016 and you were still in the duplex and about to move. Great to see you all grow 👍❤️👍 Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾 👍 ❤Peggy❤
Love the recap videos especially when you just detour and have a conversation! So much fun! Thanks guys! Blessings 💞🙏💞 You really brighten up my day. Dealing with someone with dimentia/ Alzheimer that is almost never happy or thankful is so hard and for a few minutes I am in your world! Bless you and keep it up 🙏❤️
Hey Aaron. Love your cats. We went without cats for 2 years on our farm. We had mice, rats and moles etc everywhere . It was awful.😢 They eat and bed in our garage at night and have to never worry a mouse will move in come winter. We have 2 now and no more issues! I am pro cats all the way.
Hi Laura and Aaron, it has been so much fun watching your garden journey. I hope you continue to share your experiences with us. I have learned so much from your videos and have been encouraged to start gardening again after six years of disinterest in my garden. Thank you, Debbie
Don't lose hope on the redwood! I live in Ontario Canada and am also in a zone 6(ish). I fell in love with redwoods a couple of years ago during a trip to Southern British Columbia which is a zone 8. I have since planted two different dwarf type redwoods in my small side garden. It gets a fair bit colder here so every fall they turn colour and defoliate and then push fresh growth in the spring.
Good morning. I've had my pond for 20 years, it was professionally installed and set up. I live in zone 10a and I still get string algae. When it's hot and the sun is in full effect, it's the perfect recipe for it. It's normal. Girl, enjoy that beautiful space.
I really appreciate Laura‘s stories about things she just can’t do with the kids when they are babies and toddlers. My one year-old gets into everything, and I sometimes mourn my previous life when I didn’t have to do without things that bring me joy. Reminds me of the Brandi Carlile song “the mother” - “you broke a thousand heirlooms I was never meant to keep.”
Oh my gosh!! I know I'm speaking for myself, but I think a lot would agree. We'd never stop watching! We'll all be old ladies, still following Laura and Aaron, watching them garden and having grandkids!
I think the tension rod used in the "video hack" is actually a shower curtain rod. Those are so much beefier! You could have also used a command hook in the center to help support it.
That pond maintenance is no different than starting a new garden. At the end of my first year, I had so many pests I was ready to give up. During the second year, I was better prepared to deal with them. And in the third year, the predators moved in and took care of the pests for me. So now that everything is balanced it’s a lot less work for me.😊
Sure hope you stay there and do the remodeling of your home. Looking forward to all the cool stuff Aaron will research and put into the remodeled floor plan.
I LOVE Tinsel!😊 I don't care about fads, I love it and have used it for years. Not overabundantly but judiciously, and love the way the lights reflect off of it. The kids' handmade school decs are on it too! I do the tree and decorating for me now, kids are gone and the hubs hardly even notices it. Al
Good morning, Laura & Aaron ☕️ Another great recap. Wow, Aaron 20 hours of editing 😳 That’s the side of RUclips we don’t see I suppose. I’m excited to see what you come up with and where for the compost pile. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈🐈
A sand box is a great idea! We already know that Samantha would love it. But I’ll bet if it’s big enough to get toy trucks and tractors in it, Benjamin will go crazy, too. Maybe consider having a cover for it when not in use, though. (Just thinking about the cats here) 😂
Love watching your videos and seeing all the amazing progress. You mentioned something big coming next. I keep having this feeling we’ll be seeing stables and horses in the Dirt Lands soon. When my daughter wanted a horse I just couldn’t resist 🐎😊
Our girls worked hard to take care of their horses, and they were pretty young too. A lot of fun, family time, new friends and life lessons learned. The best thing we did for them and us.
Good morning! Laura, you use a shower curtain rod for that garland hack. Also, we have a pool, and we learned that algae doesn't grow once the water temperature reaches 60 degrees. So you can probably turn off the ion generator. Thanks for the videos. My whole family enjoys seeing what Miss Laura is up to every day😊
The big round spring tension rod is probably a shower curtain rod. I got a silver one at Ross to put a valance on in my master bathroom window which is a wide expanse.
Hi Laura, being an Aquascape pond owner myself I found Decker's Pondscapes, has a "tech tip Tuesday" series. They suggest you remove the Iongen prong for the Winter. Just an FYI.
Thanks for asking about the redwood tree. I sent it a step under 1st class since it goes by plane to Seattle and I figured OR. Is right next to WA. Figured no more than 7 days but sent plants to WI and GA. They received the one in GA in 3 days while the one in WI took almost three weeks first class. Mind you, these all came from Alaska. Apparently they sent it to Atlanta then trucked it up to WI. The tree was sent UPS suppose to be no longer than 15 days and the other two were sent USPS.
Sometimes it's challenging to hear or read the negative or nasty comments. I watched a old video, and a comment was so unnecessary. I 🤔 why? Why? There is the possibility of not typing anything. 🤯 You are strong to just deal, answer and move on. Strong woman!
Love the look back! I started watching around the time you bought the south garden. Great job bringing plans to life. And remembering Phoebe’s generational Toulhouse cookie episode from Friends. Classic!
When Laura gives you the smile and says, "We have some projects for spring that I think you guys will enjoy. 😮😮 I am already for spring, and here, Laura is teasing us about new projects. Totally not cool,Laura..😅 Well, I didn't even notice the broken pot. I was more interested in what you were talking about.😊
I love your pond too! And there is something so satisfying in working in an area you love! I love any excuse to be outside, except when it is 20 or more below zero in MN 😀
The garden overview was such a great video to see how far you have come. I love to see transformations and the amazing possibilities that can become reality. And also that you can always change things up if you have the resources to do so. Thanks, Aaron, for the editing hours and for putting so much into that video!
Great recap video as always, love them! I’ve been watching since 2016 and have watched your garden evolve right alongside my own. We moved to our new property in June 2017. This year I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed watching ALL of your Christmas at once!!! They have given me so much inspiration this year and such a joyful start to my favorite holiday!!! Thank you ❤
OMG, you guys, your RUclips will always have people wanting to watch. You are the BEST, it's always fun, beautiful, garden information. You are amazing, you will always have of us wanting more!!
Tinsel and cats are a nightmare scenario! 🐈 As a non adult I remember our cat eating the tinel. Then us arguing with each other who's turn it was to chase the cat with a tissue to retrieve the tinsel hanging out of it's tush! 😂
I so agree about ribbons in trees. I didn’t use any this year and the tree looks glorious. They look so 90’s early 2000 with ribbon…But some still love them.
Laura, they are using shower rods for the garland hack! You do such a beautiful job decorating inside and out! So fun to watch the kids grow up before our eyes.
Hi from Melborne Australia. After seeing your pond installation I inquired if Aquascape is here in Aus and suprisingly there was a contractor in the adjoining town. Ive had a wonderful wet pondless waterfall put into a corner of my garden .I love it so much. Grandkids are small 2 and 3 years , so pondless was the way to go. I want more water features from them now. Thankyou Laura absolutely fantastic ideas. After the dream stream perhaps I'll be calling them again.
Love your recap, so fun. I enjoy your interactions. Can't wait to hear what the news you will be sharing in late December. Also, have you thought about using a shower curtain rod for your garland project. They would be heavyweight enough and they work almost the same way, you can extent as much as you need then turn it to make it tight. Have a blessed day everyone.
Hi guys , the tension rod they were using was a tension shower rod !! I do enjoy the Sunday morning recap with my coffee .have been watching for years , love the evolution of your garden , please don’t stop you have so much information for us . Thank you so very much 🌲❤️🌲
Watching this morning before I get ready for church and heard your comments about tension rods. The really thick ones are shower curtain rods. I’ve used them for entryway into my dining room.
I'm so glad to hear you say you are doubtful about the "new" zones. A lot of us down South are really leary of these new zones and ours are no where near the change yours are. I'll believe these new zones when we've had a couple of winters under our belts!
Buy some lotuses for your pond Laura! We cut off the foliage in Fall and then simply overwinter the lotus tubers in their pots in the pond through the winter.
On standard tree roses, I use the gray foam pipe covers that people put over their copper pipes in the winter. I put them around the lead branch. You can get them at any hardware store.
Hi, Laura: For the hack that you saw with a tension rod, try using a shower curtain rod instead. They won't sag and are larger in diameter, so they won't sag. They come in a variety of colors as well. Can't wait to see what the surprise is for next year!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing with us! I was wondering about your sun porch by the front door and those sweet little lemon cypress trees? Hope you have a great week! XO from NE Texas
Thank you so much, Aaron, for spending all that time editing, 20+ hours, so we could see that overview video! I had no idea it took so much work. It was wonderful and very much appreciated! ❤😊
The tension rod in decorating videos is a shower curtain rod.
Love your videos! 🎄
I agree, it’s a shower rod!
I was about to say the same thing
Coming to say it too! 26:30
And . . . if you cannot find a shower curtain rod in white, Home Depot used to carry 'slit' sleeves in white which one can just slip over the rod and cut to size.
@@bettyjrogers
Or you can always spray paint .

Yep, she pronounced it “Nez-lay Toolooz” & Monica said do you mean Nestle Tollhouse? Cracks me up😂
Oh I remember that. Poor Phebe
I just rewatched that episode 😂 When Laura started to tell that story, I was like 🤔 why is this familiar…!
@@danareynolds4069❤yep
Truly appreciate all the hours Aaron put into editing the garden layout video!
That was such a good video. I didn't realize I "needed' that video. 😄

Preaching to the choir !! A gardeners lifestyle is a mystery to some folk. We sure do love maintenance (: (:

Wow! You are wonderful. Is your area very dry? Maybe you are in a place just like Laura's!
Don't worry Aaron and Laura, we, your viewers, will never just go away, we Love you guys and your channel ❤
I agree I'm here for the long haul !! As long as your here I'm here !!-
It would be awesome if Grandpa could get an update to his pond! Would make for a great gift idea.
Aaron I did a belly laugh when you said mowing the lawn was "me" time! It's so true and meditative!
My husband says the same!!

Get a turtle sand box. Comes with it cover.
Glad to hear that you are starting a compost pile. The hardest part is turning the pile and you have the equipment to do it. Go Aaron!
So glad to hear this too. And algae is great to simply place around the base of a plant.. excellent in compost pile.👍🏼
The best part is the “realness” of your channel! Life isn’t perfect and I personally am attracted to you discovering obstacles and learning how to deal with stuff because we all have to do that too! Thank you for showing us “everything” ❤

I also had this problem until I stopped using the tree stand and instead drove rebar into the ground and placed the tree over the rebar. Now no problems even on windy days. Works really well.
What a great idea
As for Christmas trees tipping over in the wind: pound a rebar in the ground first. Set the tree over it. Secure the tree to the rebar.
Aaron there is no such thing as “too many videos”.from you guys. We love them💕
You guys know the Nestle Tollhouse thing was a storyline on Friends?! Monica is trying to guess at Phoebe’s Grandma’s recipe and it turns out to be the Nestle recipe on the bag! So good. 😂

They do make a BARLEY CONDITIONER for ponds. I just put in at begin season and does VERY WELL once summer hits and lily's begin to give shade.

Lawn mowing is adult therapy!

@gardenanswer did you guys see this??

So you can probably turn off the ion generator. Thanks for the videos. My whole family enjoys seeing what Miss Laura is up to every day😊
The big round spring tension rod is probably a shower curtain rod. I got a silver one at Ross to put a valance on in my master bathroom window which is a wide expanse.
Laura! It’s not a curtain rod, it’s a shower rod with a large diameter and heavy gage. It spans about 6-7ft.
I LOVE mowing too…HATE vacuuming though 😂
Hi Laura, being an Aquascape pond owner myself I found Decker's Pondscapes, has a "tech tip Tuesday" series. They suggest you remove the Iongen prong for the Winter. Just an FYI.

As long as you garden and make videos, I am staying Laura. Stated watching you before you bought this house.
OMG, you guys, your RUclips will always have people wanting to watch. You are the BEST, it's always fun, beautiful, garden information. You are amazing, you will always have of us wanting more!!
I'm so excited that you decided to take my suggestion to rename Versailles to the Persephone garden! Awesome!!❤
Great recap guys! Love your channels!
Tinsel and cats are a nightmare scenario! 🐈 As a non adult I remember our cat eating the tinel. Then us arguing with each other who's turn it was to chase the cat with a tissue to retrieve the tinsel hanging out of it's tush! 😂
Ah yes, pulling the tinsel out of the cat's butt- a favorite family Christmas tradition of ours. LOL
Yup, same here... so disgusting! @@ritasicari7518
Please continue to be joyful for all the improvements. It such a learning school for us gardeners👍🏻👍🏻 The changes are inspiring‼️🫶
I so agree about ribbons in trees. I didn’t use any this year and the tree looks glorious. They look so 90’s early 2000 with ribbon…But some still love them.
This year I removed the ribbon and it looks wonderful great minds think alike!
Our pond is work and we love it!😍 It’s is a DIY and we love it! 😍 Had it for 25 years, and we love it!
Good morning! Another enjoyable recap!
Yes! Come to Philly!!! Would love to see you there!❤
Love your videos!!!
A tension shower rod works awesome for the garland! I think most are using that😊
Thanks for video on the property lay out of your property so much. Love that pond.
Laura, they are using shower rods for the garland hack! You do such a beautiful job decorating inside and out! So fun to watch the kids grow up before our eyes.
Good morning!🌻🐝

Of course I enjoyed it ... Thanks ... !!!
Watching your video now and just about died when I heard you read my question about the redwood. I can’t wait to see what the jury says in the spring.
Hi guys , the tension rod they were using was a tension shower rod !! I do enjoy the Sunday morning recap with my coffee .have been watching for years , love the evolution of your garden , please don’t stop you have so much information for us . Thank you so very much 🌲❤️🌲
I will never quit watching you 😍🙂🌼🌸🌺
Watching this morning before I get ready for church and heard your comments about tension rods. The really thick ones are shower curtain rods. I’ve used them for entryway into my dining room.
Everyday I look forward of y’all’s next video!
Been here for awhile!❤️
I have a shower curtain tension rod-never thought to use for window garland hanging-thanks! Sandbox-my kids loved it more than the swing set 👍🏻. 😊
The glass icicles replace tinsel! YAY! The vertical shimmer adds a different structure to the horizontal boughs.
I would love to see the ribbon and topper free trees! So curious what they look like! 😍
Wow, 20 hrs of editing. Thank you guys for doing the video. It was very nice to see the progress.
I'm so glad to hear you say you are doubtful about the "new" zones. A lot of us down South are really leary of these new zones and ours are no where near the change yours are. I'll believe these new zones when we've had a couple of winters under our belts!
You all work HARD! Thank you for such high quality videos and awesome information!
Buy some lotuses for your pond Laura! We cut off the foliage in Fall and then simply overwinter the lotus tubers in their pots in the pond through the winter.
I love the Tidy Tray. I've had mine for decades.
Persephone’s garden? I absolutely adore that idea; it has a charming touch to it. ♥️♥️
On standard tree roses, I use the gray foam pipe covers that people put over their copper pipes in the winter. I put them around the lead branch. You can get them at any hardware store.
Hi Laura and Aaron! Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi, Laura: For the hack that you saw with a tension rod, try using a shower curtain rod instead. They won't sag and are larger in diameter, so they won't sag. They come in a variety of colors as well. Can't wait to see what the surprise is for next year!!!!
Excellent look back video, you both have come such a long way, Seasons Greetings to you both and family from Sweden
Thank you so much for sharing with us! I was wondering about your sun porch by the front door and those sweet little lemon cypress trees? Hope you have a great week! XO from NE Texas

Oh your grandparents are still alive!!! Wonderful 💗 Please share them if at all possible 😊
