I was curious as well on the lifespan of roses, so I googled. Some climbing roses will live 50 years, or more, while some of the modern roses will live 6 to 10 years. But speaking of the long-lived climbers, some friends of mine moved into a house built in 1923 (a Sears kit house, which is super cool). With the house came a garden journal (another cool thing). There is a climber still going strong, and it was planted in 1930. So, this year, that beautiful rose is 93 years old ❤️
Growing up we had a abandoned farm house near us built around 1860s. I was born in 1956. There was a beautiful pink climbing rose that bloomed dinner plate size pink cabbage type roses. By the time I grew old enough to think of it, the house had been demolished and the rose was gone. I have never seen a climber quite like it.
That rose deserves a bottle of champagne.
I have a neighbor who has her Grandmother's climbing rose from the 1930's. She dug it up when her Granny's house sold and it took right off in her own yard. I smile everytime I go by her house.
OMG! A garden journal for the same property from 1923. What a gift!
@Susan Quandt It really is! The house was in the same family until 3 years ago (when my friends purchased it). Each generation was pretty good about keeping up on the garden journal. Quite surprising really, but what a wonderful treat.
I would totally love a Q&A video from you and Aaron.
Isn’t that what their doing 😂
You should do a shrub rake give-a-way since you’re stocked up on them! lol
Great recap. Always love these Sunday mornings with Laura and Aaron. Also, yes I would love to have another video where you talk about yourselves. My hand is raised.
🙋🏻♀️
My hand is raised too!!
🙋🏼♀️ Yes to video about yourselves! We love learning more about y’all and the path you’ve chosen!
Aarons description of what "dad's" get into is so spot on! So funny. He forgot brewing though! :-)
So right. I have a cousin who is into microbrews. It is a real rabbit hole and can get very expensive!
Not all dads. Some choose to sit on their phones all day playing games
Good morning ☀️
Poor Aaron 😄 the boy is excited and wants to experiment with fire, but the man is cautious and doesn't want to clean up a mess. The struggle is real.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😢W2a🎉wWa🎉2😮
Aaron, I live in Missouri, and we burn our lawns, and our Fields back here. It really isn't a mess it's it just burns down, and then you either water it in or it rains and all of the burnt stuff just kind of falls into the ground there is no mess. Easy peasy!
🤗🤚👋👍👍
This is all of us raising our hands for a Q & A with both you and Aaron!!
Yes, please and thank you!!
💜💜💜
😢😢
L
…just love listening to Aaron talk, explain his thoughts and think out loud. Fascinating. He’s quite a study. 🥰
An old oak card catalog would look great in the flower shed!
Library old-timey thing… card catalog?? 😆 We’re the same age and knew exactly what you were describing! I’ve learned so much from you and the channels. Thanks for all the great and consistent content.
Bone spurs on the heels, are so painful! Inserts from podiatrist can be special made. Mine finally healed.
The question on how Aaron helps in the garden was answered a few moments later when he talked about fertilizing the arbs and trees.. Also, don't forget the great job he does on the lawns! Keep up the good work, Aaron!
Oh Aaron... you totally crack me up! Lawn dads, Russian Thistle, "i wonder where are these Japanese Maples native to"? I laughed out loud! 😆 🤣
Local mountains here in So Cal RARELY get more than 4-6” of snow at a time.
Big Bear got about 10 feet in 1 week, Wrightwood 6 feet, Lake Arrowhead about 10 as well.
This was a historical snowfall. Weekenders ended up being stuck INSIDE for 7-14 days. Not good.
Taking a while to dig out.
So!
Normally ready for normal snow. Unprepared for these back to back to back to back storms including a blizzard, which is exceedingly rare.
Will help with our drought, but melting snow MAY lead to flooding, mudslides, etc.
A truly mixed blessing. 🌺🥶☃️
Hand raised here. Would love to see you two give us the whole story ( if we aren't being too nosey).
I heard you mention having had foot pain. Planters fasciitis is very common and can become very painful and hard to recover from. I love your cute little Vans but probably not great for arch support if you wear them on a daily basis. There are exercises you can do before to help relieve the pain and stretch out you Achilles tendons.
I just love you guys. Thank you for opening up your life to us. 🙏🏼♥️
❤️🥰❤
Good morning !
I always clean my flower beds early as I deal with alot of black spot living in a humid valley ...Laura is spot on about cleaning up depends on your conditions
I have to say I thought a wreath out of the raspberries cans as well
Your mum would definitely see that as a florist
Gosh most people would love a bed of lily of the valley
Whole sale in uk 1-2 pounds a stem
For a nice wedding bouquet you need a few hundred
The last one I did 350 pounds
I would love a Laura and Aaron history video. I've been watching for just over a year now and think it would be fun to know your whole story beginninging until now with your channel.
I don't have access to Instagram and don't use TikTok. So I miss a lot of your sporadic news.
Morning everyone. Spring is on the way 🌸
Morning! I know I am so excited!
Yes!! Can’t wait! I just keep telling myself ~After every winter comes spring!! 🌱❤
Recap videos are so helpful for me! I grew up in Eastern WA, tumbleweeds were a nightmare!! This year (age 61), starting my 1st small cut flower garden Z9A. I especially find useful all your education information. Well done! Keep enjoying your journey. God Bless
Good morning! Love your channel. I’m in Florida so most of what you do really doesn’t help me here in Central Florida but I have dreams. I have lived in the southwest and the northeast and had beautiful gardens but most of the plants I love only work in early spring here. Once the heat and humidity moves it’s a destroyer. I loved your succulent video and plan to give some of those a try.
Also, your heal pain will most likely go away with the use of arch supports and good shoes. I used to wear easy slip on shoes with no arch’s and the pain and on my feet walking real estate all day long, especially in the morning was so painful. My dr said “ look at what you are wearing! Needed more supportive shoes and arch supports and they changed my life. Give it a try! Get them at any pharmacy or big box store, Dr Sholls are my favs. And yes, after also getting cortisone shots which helped at first, I lost my vanity and purchased the supports and glad I did. It was 30 years ago and have never had a problem again. Best wishes!
Stretching your calves can help with heel pain! I have plantar fasciitis from being on my feet as a nurse. Once I learned to stretch my calves regularly helps, it was a game changer. Standing on a step with the ball of my foot and dropping my heel down gently over the edge, while holding the banister or wall, is an easy stretch to do before I go up the stairs. Hope this helps!
For muscle and tendon pain, I use straight peppermint essential oil. It works better than absolutely anything! I don’t know how or why it works, but tendonitis in my neck and back disappears. I gave up on perfume because I always smell like mint though.
I agree, plantar fasciitis causes heal pain. I use plantar inserts in all my shoes even my slippers and do a few simple quick calf stretching exercises and the pain is in the past. Going barefoot and wearing shoes with thin soles often results in stretched fascia leading to heal pain.
@@gaywalker2117 Yeah, but then the inserts and thicker soled shoes will eventually cause knee injuries, then proceed up to hip problems. An epidemic of knee and hip replacements all caused by shoes. But those doctors are making their cash!
Yes! New introduction and q&a with you two! I really enjoy these videos because of the banter. Think about a podcast!!!
YES! I ordered the geraniums as well❤And also ordered some heat mats. Love geraniums and those you featured are gorgeous!! Just potted them today. Can't wait for mine to pop :)
The banter between the two of you is so funny! Enjoy the recap videos. Keep up the great job.
There was snow on the beach in Santa Cruz, CA. We need the rain. Sadly, we have a lousy system for capturing a lot of the water that currently runs straight to the ocean. I love watching your channel as I sit and watch the rain fall in my drought tortured yard.
Laura’s giving me Spring fever too! Only trouble is I live in the Southern hemisphere, so we’re heading into Winter 😮. Hi from Australia 🇦🇺
@@guidedandblessed Hi. I’m from country NSW. It’s been really dry here too. Our (huge) water tanks are running low and I’m praying for rain for the garden. All the best to you.
Another great recap! I’ve gotten my Mountain Crest succulents and am pretty dang excited to get planting! (Searching for the perfect planter) Appreciate all the tips! Thanks Laura!
Suggestion: Maybe mention in the beginning of your regular channel’s videos, that all the questions get answered on your other channel called highlights. I think some people don’t know you have this channel. Might be worth mentioning ❤
Hand raised for an up close and personal with Laura and Aaron
👋👋Good Sunday morning, Laura and Aaron!!!
🙋🏼♀️ I would LOVE a Q&A with you and Aaron!!!🙋🏼♀️
Another great video with great questions in it!
Have a Blessed and Beautiful day/night/new week 🌞/🌜✨️⭐️🌟⭐️✨️ 🌐 everyone!!!
Kimberley F in the Arizona desert 🌞🌵💞🏜 (Zone 9b) USA 🇺🇸
I wonder if you noticed your coffee cup in this recap looks like the planter you just did with the succulents!! Coincidence?? Thanks for all the info Laura, and I am going to try some Nature's Willow.
I immediately ordered the pain relief combo from Nature's Willow! I've been having this nagging shoulder pain that won't seem to go away so I'm hoping it helps... I used your code too👍 Thanks guys😁
Same! Thank you Laura & mom!
I, for one, would love to see a, "Where We Came From," video, with your history, apart and together!
“Life’s a fragile thing, Har.” I always love when the movie references come up 😂
🎉Ohh the Northern California Snow😂 let me tell you, we got snow down to 1,000 feet of a little over a week ago, and when you normally never get snow and you are at an evening meeting that when started, there was No snow and 2 hours later, the meeting ends, you walk outside and can barley recognize your car😂😂 it took me 2 hours to get maybe a mile and half to our home🙄 I definitely used my quota of the "F" word for the year😝 But my parents have been snowed in as well as their carport collapsing on their car, they have lived in there area for 20 years and this has been the worst winter for them by far, thank heavens for the wonderful community that has helped them with groceries and medications..❄❄
Lawn dads! Hahahaha
Good morning, Laura and Aaron, from Windermere Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸🌞🇺🇸
I love your Sunday visit as I'm prepping breakfast and listening to my favorite couple 💓
Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾 👍 💓
What's for breakfast?
I can be there tomorrow morning if I leave NOW!
@Sister Shirley 🤣 Eggs, sausage, grits, Strawberries and Greek yogurt and Mimosas 🍳🥓🍵🥂
My mom, sister and nephew live in Crestline CA snow was above thier cars over 12 feet of snow. They have food / water for now. However, the only supermarket near them Goodwins (I think that's what it's called) the roof caved in due to all the snow. People in the area are in a lot of trouble. We can't get up the mountain to help at this point. Officials are asking us to stay away for now too. A lot homes roofs have collapsed. There was even an explosion in one of the homes in the area. A lot of the elderly have little to go on. It's been a week of heavy snow. Please help me pray for them 🙏🏽
I chuckled at the Lily of the Valley comments. My parents were NOT plant people, but my mother actually had a tiny patch of Lily of the Valley and mint - and that was IT. 😂. In their defense, we lived in S. Colorado, 7500 ft desert valley where not much other than very cool weather plants like lettuce, potato, and barley.
Anything you do with your Mum I love... Remember when you went to the woods and gathered along the road!
Laura if you’re having problems with your heals definitely try Sketchers runners. I worked 45 years as a health care aid and came across these runners. Wow there fantastic for my heals & feet. In regards to the comment about Aron. He’s to busy with all the arbs, the grass ( fertilizing and weed control aeration ect.) and a ton of other projects. Great recap video. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Shoes. So much the shoes. I cannot wear shoes that don’t bend. They are not good for the soles of my feet.
Her "shoes" are not the root cause.
After watching her from the start of her channel she has always been, "in the dirt" with a intense amount of: lifting, pushing, twisting and pulling activities that MANY times are BEYOND her physical limitations.
(Watch her fight to pull up the root ball of a tree and fall, man handle 75 Arborvitaes to make a living fence and spend hours on her knees popping thousands of spring bulbs in the ground, etc.)
Your body starts to adapt to the weight bearing load it's expected to handle - tendons, ligaments and muscles become tighter to provide counter measures to adapt.
With a decade of daily rounded shoulders to lift, a leaning forward bent over posture that affects the head, neck and spine, her lumbar, glutes, hamstrings, calves and feet are CONSTANTLY attempting to COUNTER that body position.
When standing up now, the body starts to have a forward lean (albeit ever so subtle).
When the head and shoulders lean forward in an upright position, the FEET AND CALVES are actively/constantly attempting to pull you backward to the correct spinal and head position to create neutral.
So, at this moment, Laura's chest (pecs) is tight, shoulders (ant. delts) are rounded, the pelvis is in an ant. tilt, her glutes, hamstrings, quads, and calves are hypertonic as a result.
The calves tendons distally attach under the foot. With her standing in footwear with ZERO arch support she's pulled the arch out of her feet and may be experiencing the beginning of plantar fascitis - experiencing inflammation from the plantar muscles attachments to the heel as well.
Solutions?
At the very least, she needs to have a PT deeply open up her calves to lengthen them and put slack back in the Achilles, address the anterior portion of calf and work on plantar flexion to ease the strain on the heel attachments.
Then, she needs to get on a good stretching and strengthening daily routine coupled with PT bodywork for corrective posturing.
An excellent performance insole in a high quality leather boot with a 70% merino wool "high cushion" sock is the chosen way to provide support, protection, cushion and breatheability to the foot and NEVER have injury or fatigue.
Why am I NOT recommending sneakers?
They aren't durable enough and the insoles are PAPER and breakdown too fast and provide inadequate support. They provide poor protection for the work that Laura does with small equipment. An 7" drill auger could tear up a flimsy cloth sneaker. I've seen it before.
They provide NO ankle support while working on unstable surfaces (rolling ankle slipping into a hole). The right boot will regulate foot temperatures and will conform to the shape of the foot to provide YEARS of use making it a better investment.
The last time she mentioned doing a yoga session on this channel, she reported her lower back sitting in the chair was, "killing her" because her back and lower body was not used to being stretched and she gave herself a good amount of soreness from it.
She's not a weekend gardener.
🙏
I no longer watch your videos on facebook. I go straight to RUclips. :)
Weather like this hasn't happened in LA area for 20+ years. But I'm 48 so I remember and I'm happy 😁
People that bought in the mountains in the last 10 years and are 30 years old just didn't know what they were getting in to
Laura I totally recommend Brooks shoes or Asics. The Brooks are amazing Ghost or Adrenaline would be best. I love your videos.
Always interested in learning more about you guys, plans for the future, stuff you want to do, so hand is raised!
I live in Virginia and lily of the valley do well here, but I have never had them become crazy invasive. We have Virginia Creeper too which is a beautiful weed. I had a slope with vinca, ivy and virginia creeper all together. It was an incredible ground cover! I thought it was pretty too. Different strokes for different folks.
In Boise I had vinca (for me was invasive but pretty) and Virginia creeper. I liked it but it would get up in my arborvitae’s and cause trouble. I also had morning glories and they behaved themselves pretty well
Californian here the mountains here are deep in snow, Boreal (northern California) had over 170 inches of snow a week ago . 12 ft in the last ten days! And more coming in 😁😁😁😁 sadly Aaron no a lot of people are so unprepared for this kind of stuff even if they live there.
I understand that people who have aspirin or salicylic acid sensitivity should not use willow bark products.
Oh Aaron thinking people might think of ahead when they live a high threat area for certain disasters 🙄🤣 I say this because I live an area that floods and gets tornadoes. We seem to be the only neighbor in my area that has a tornado shelter, generator backup and food storage for months and even ways to clean the river water if we can’t get city water. We’ve watched our neighbors go through disasters a couple of time and just panic each time 🤦🏼♀️ I really don’t get it . If common sense were common.
Please show us how your geraniums are doing. Blessings to your family.
If you use the name "Laura" you get a kick back right?? Also isn't the church you decorate and plant for, Aaron's parents... His father is the Pastor, it's their church.. No??
Farmers around here burn off stubble and pasture all the time. Native Americans did that as well. Once you burn it off, it will green up wonderfully full and thicker.
Love your recap always think oh it’s Sunday & the recap is on !!! Thanks so much for sharing your videos!!
Perfect time for this sponsored video. Elbow is killing me from crocheting. Already placed my order.
Good morning, Laura & Aaron ☕️ Another great recap. I too love that head planter so much. Going to check out Nature’s Willow now! Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
Heel pain is the WORST! Roll frozen water bottle under arches when sitting. Do a long passive stretch with toes on wall and heel on floor, as close as you can get to straight up! Do that stretch whenever you have a minute. Good arch support is also important.
What a wonderful couple...... your friendship ❣️ envy you guys 😄all the best. Bless you family ❤️❤️
Aaron. Many years ago, we were trying to get grass to grow and fill in on new property. We had burned the grass, and when it came back, it was super green, lush and thick. The lawn turned out beautiful!
I would just control it and only do a manageable section at a time. Was so worth it.
I also started geraniums by seed after watching. 9 out of 10 came up and are doing well!
Please? When you put your hands down on the “table top” we hear “thumps.” Could you put a yoga mat on the table top? I only write to you in hopes to help. My dog hears the “thumps” and barks like crazy.😂
Me typing in natures Willow lol. Zone 8b and completely having to redo an entire side bed due to new construction. I’m sore in areas I can’t even understand why. Lol - I also may have gotten overly excited that we are in full spring.
Went to Nature’s Willow while watching your video and made a purchase! Always looking for natural ways to heal. Love how informative and helpful your videos are!!🌿❤️❤️❤️
Good Morning ☀️ 🌺🌸💐 I’m ready for spring already!!!
Am in southern hemisphere & am so ready for autumn 🤗. Been In the 80s F & humid for too long now.
Good Sunday morning!! ☀️🌷🌻🍃🪴
I am zone 5b and our Lilly of the valley does not spread terribly, therefore I just love it ❤. The smell is intoxicating when I bring a bunch inside!
Another fantastic weekend wrap-up! 😀
I get pain in my heel and have struggled with plantar fascitus for over a year and a half. Using insoles is great, but doing the ankle release maneuver from @human garage really helped. My pain went from an 8 to a 2 in just a week doing the move twice a day, total game changer.
Hey there!! Just wanted to let you know! Audio issues with the recap videos. Ever since you guys started using the mics on stands we hear a very noticeable thud every time Laura touches the table (or anything on it). We love the recap videos and our manner of viewing is through our tv with a sound system and sub. All of that makes us really hear that pronounced thud anytime that table Laura uses is touched. Thanks for all you guys do! We really do love your videos.
It must be unique to your sound system setup as we don't have that problem with their videos.
Hasn't been an issue for me.
Listen to the last 4 or 5 minutes, (maybe more) of this video. Everytime you put your hand down on the counter (several times in this time frame) your new mic picks up the pound....maybe you need one of those over the head, move around mics
We do control burning of our meadows some springs . It helps with weeds and brush . I made the mistake of burning the ornamental grass off and accidentally set the meadow on fire ! Oh my heart stopping 😮thankfully we were able to keep it from spreading by lighting a back fire .
Thanks, Laura, I put in an order and saved almost $20.00. I am anxious to try the bath soak.
Laura I have heel spurs so I can feel your pain! But I bought shoes specifically for that from a company called Kuru .My foot pain has disappeared! Even after a twelve hour day in the garden. Highly recommend!
Drew Shoes for heel pain.
Idea: “HANGIN IN THE HARTLY WITH…. (Mom, Aaron, Dad, Benjamin….)” cocktails & conversations.
Good Morning ! I am hoping to clean out one flower bed today, 60* here but fleeting. Just a note from personal experience .. red wood deteriorates from dry rot.
Aaron is the lawn guy and I have lawn envy !
Hi Laura and Aaron! Another fun recap! Thank you so much for sharing!
Laura, good arch support, we have the store The Walking Co. and we also get running shoes such as Brooks from our local running store (they are better than the big box type stores, I feel like the sneaker quality, even same name are better) Also, question, do you worry about the insects and such that are living in your old growth when you clean up before temps get warmer, I never know when the right time to clean up is.
Love, Love the Nature's Willow Products!!😊👍
This was a wonderful summary video! Thank you so much Laura and Aaron
Zone 5b. Lilly of the Valley spreads. I keep mine contained by planting them between the house and a sidewalk. My husband loves this plant. Without his love, I'd probably not grow them.
Sounds like a great video idea! An “obstacle course” of garden chores challenge between you and Paul!
With the debate on the fertiliser I would think the landscape fabric is keeping moisture in the soil better, that’s why they seem to be growing better
🙌🏻 hand raised for those get-to-know-you videos! I’ve been following you for years but it’s always fun.
Yep! Up in Truckee our deck had over 5’ of snow when I went up last Sunday to shovel. And it’s on the PROTECTED side of the house! We’re looking for to both a wonderful wildflower AND gardening season this year.
This was a wonderful summary video! Thanks so much for the great ideas and the inspiration! ❤
You can always grow lily of the valley in containers. I have several different invasive plants that I grow in containers. I grow strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries in containers so they don’t spread. I plan on planting some lily of the valley this year. And they will be in containers.
I recently purchased a covered metal tin at the Target Dollar spot for $5, that fits seed packets perfectly! It's about 12 inches wide, so I have plenty of room for expansion, as I don't have the same collection that you have Laura!!! I was thrilled to find it, as some of the seed packet containers are pretty expensive and I'd much rather be buying plants!!! 😀😀
Laura, your heel pain is likely plantar fasciitis. It happens to runners and anyone on their feet alot (like nurses like me!). Wear shoes with good arch support. There are a multitude of stretches for your feet you can search online to help. Love watching your recap videos every Sunday with my coffee!
Laura, I agree with libbyfritz7076. The arch supports that were recommended to me are Protalus that you can buy online. The stretches were very helpful also.
I also 😂had therapy treatments
for plantar facsciatis and the exercises included the whole leg as well as the foot. Also massaging of the feet and legs too.
No! I disagree. Laura likes vans because they are flat. She she should look into minimalist/barefoot shoes. Using arch support is just coddling the muscles of the arch, when the foot should be getting and worked like any other muscle.
I’m in zone 6b Pennsylvania so Lily of the Valley SHOULD be invasive or at least prolific for me but the squirrels, chipmunks, deer etc don’t let them even get going! I live on a wooded lot so lots of animals use my garden as a buffet 😑
I live at the at the base of the mountain from Tahoe (Carson City) and we are OVER THE SNOW!!! Tahoe has over 500 inches and we are in the middle of another storm now. 😩
this is the second video where im hearing a thumping sound like some one stomping upstairs. no other videos have i heard this. are you having some construction / remodeling done above this room. love your videos.
It’s from Laura hitting her arms down on the table.
I was in Reno one year, in March. Tahoe got 6 feet of snow one of the days. I'm not sure any homeowner could be prepared for that. They had an inch of accumulation every minute, for a 20 minute period.
Yes. I vote yes. I’d love a sit down with this beautiful wife and her handsome husband. How you met… would be more interesting than Prince Harry and Megan. 💞
I'm in NE PA, Zone 7B, and I love my lilly-of-the-valley. It has not taken over anywhere other than the area where it is planted. I'm hoping it will continue to grow around a corner to fill in another area.
IDEA 💡Laura and Aaron do a "react" to your one year anniversary video (when y'all were "babies") and fill in any blanks and expand on what has happened since then.
I know SOOO much has happened. I remember Laura announcing her first pregnancy with Benjamin and I just can't believe how quickly time has passed haha.
Would be super cute to see a summary like that 💖
I live in southern Illinois zone 6 I have Lillie of the valley in one of my flower beds and they are not invasive at all. They do spread a little but I want them to. I am going to put some starts in my hosta bed this year as a ground cover and hope it covers the floor of the bed eventually.
