    It has been so cool and rainy in SW Missouri zone 6. Then WHAM! 90 degrees yesterday and today. So I am sticking to a water container today-planting a few water plants including a water lily, pitcher plant and some aquatic plants in a large bowl. The water feels great! I see Laura’s desire to finish up some last minute container planting. I love her enthusiasm and every time I watch I get motivated to do something outside. We had a wedding last weekend on our farm and I received so many complements on my gardens. I couldn’t have done it without Garden Answer. What an inspiration from Laura and Aaron and their team!

    Since I've been watching Garden Answers and applying what I've learned, my landscaping has been the topic of my neighborhood. Laura , you've introduced me to so many plant varieties and techniques that, honestly I can't stop myself. I've become a plant hoarder, daily I tell myself not to plant anymore but it's become an obsession. I'm in zone 7, so the plants that thrive in my area are bound less. I made a list from each of your plant recommendations last year and I have many from my list now in my garden and planters. Thank you for the inspiration. I seldom go outside the house that I'm not stopped by a neighbor telling me my yard looks fantastic, some even ask for my help designing theirs. It's fun and amazing to me, since I've no formal training other than doing research and watching your channel. Thank you Laura and Aaron for sharing your experiences and know how. I'm gardening on a whole new level.

    Thanks for your amazing videos. I don’t know how you find time to do everything with a growing family. Just amazing energy! I always learn something when I tune in. Bless you all.
