Just a tip my father taught me when growing potatoes . When your potatoe plant start blooming if you pinch off the blooms if puts more growth into the potatoes instead of the plant . I've did this for years . He would have been 113 this yr .
@carolynhowell860 Your Grandfather sounds like a wonderful man. You must love him so much. I smiled when you wrote about him so I wanted to tell you that. I don't know why? I wish I'd known him. "Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen."
Laura sometimes talks about how certain plants give her nostalgia. For me it is planting potatoes. My dad would walk down the row of freshly tilled soil and toss the seed potatoes and I would follow behind with my bare feet and step on them to bury them in the soil. I remember the smell of the garden and the cool dirt between my toes. Thanks to GA for reigniting my love of gardening and helping me find the peaceful place of having my hands (and feet) in the soil and watching the beautiful things grow ❤
Yay it's time for ground covers! Such a testament to how much you do for your gardens. Finishing touches and hopefully mulching will be less labor after they grow in! I was imagining your cats either taking over your RUclips tube or really making their own youtube channel 😂. What is it about cats that I'm so mesmerized. Hang in there you are working so hard. I wear your GA sweater and long sleeve shirt at work in the Emergency Department I work in (nurse, here). I love making connections with my patients and there's no better platform than yours!❤❤
I'm about to plant my potatoes today--a month later than usual--thanks for the inspiration! We have had a rough winter/spring due to my husband's health issues and it's been hard to find the time and the motivation to get everything done. Happy gardening everyone!!
That little yarrow is my favorite!!! It's adorable and so dainty😊. The other plants will be beautiful in your garden, but today's plant winner is the mighty, tiny yarrow.
Fun fact, Van Gogh was using digitalis to treat his depression and one of the side effects is seeing yellow more vibrantly, which some theorize is why he was inspired to paint the sunflowers.
What a productive day you have had. Potatoes planted. Beautiful ground covers in and allowing us to see how beautifully your garden is waking up. Have a blessed day everyone.
Laura I absolutely love your channel. It’s so encouraging everyday 💚 the flower bed next to the driveway/raised bed area, you planted begonias around the trees, it would be so pretty to plant the same begonias in those gorgeous urns. (My only request) your love of family and gardening inspires me. I get up every morning looking forward to your post and out in my garden I go! Happy gardening…and I’ll see you in the next video 💐😘💚
Ground covers and winter interest are things I need to focus more on in my garden. Thanks for introducing me to more varieties of ground covers Laura…you are AHHHH-mazing! Very helpful video too.💚💜
So happy to tune in this morning to find you’re planting potatoes! I appreciate the information. I had thrown some old small Yukons in my compost pile. When leaves started coming up I potted everything. We’ll see how it goes. Thanks for taking us along - GA videos are the first I watch every morning! 💚 🪴 🌹❤️
I now have all the parts to my Greenstalk, so I have to get it together to assemble it! I plan on doing strawberries, mint, and jalapeños! I'm very excited! I did do most of my deck pots yesterday but didn't get my gardens fully cleaned out. All my perennials that I planted last year came back, which makes me so happy! Peonies, hydrangeas, mini skirt hostas, a fern, lilys of the valley, and more. I still have so many seeds to plant, but I've got to get my gardens cleaned out first! Easier said than done some days!
The condition of the soil in the South Garden is amazing after planting & mulching from even just a couple of years. When you were planting the wooly thyme, I noticed the dramatic improvement!!!
I've never found that hilling potatoes creates a heavier yield. Few potato varieties are indeterminate, and good luck finding that info in any way besides trial and error. But, the new potatoes form above the seed potato. So if you are not careful, the soil will erode and you will end up with exposed potatoes. And we all know those turn green and taste like soap. So continual hilling ensures that your harvest is well covered.
I have the same coral bells and mine are absolutely huge! Even my son in law who’s in landscaping, said wow your coral bells are enormous for only the second year! The whole bed looks great, with hostas and coral bells and evergreens …coming along beautifully! Very happy with it! Especially my shadowland wee hosta! Such a beautiful plant!
I've noticed how much the soil has improved in the south garden. The addition of compost over the last couple years has really made a difference. I know you're pleased with it! I saw a comment that someone made about Samantha starting her own little garden maybe in the pond area. What a great idea! 🌸🌼🪻🌺
Always so nice to see plants waking up in spring! Everything looks so fresh and green, love it! The little plants at around 19:00 are a variety of Epimedium.
I wish I had started my gardens with groundcovers. I've been adding some the past couple of years and they multiply pretty rapidly. I love having all different kinds mixed together.
Laura, thank you for bare spaces and how your patient!! I’ve always been so dressed to get a spot planted and filled but this season I had a major ankle/ foot surgery and not walking too good normally I would be so extremely stressed that I have to get areas filled but it hit me in the last few posts of yours it’s ok to let a spot just be! If I get to it this season or not it’s ok. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to teach me Laura patience 💕🌸🌷
I started watching you since I was in the Philippines years ago, now that I moved here in the U.S. Your tips and suggestions are very helpful. Especially the plant you use in your garden!
Laura, you should put the rock crest by the pond area around the rocks and call it Samantha's mini garden .. have her pick out each month her flower of the month .. lol
I love ground cover! I suggest trying partridge berry! It’s an evergreen with white twin flowers that produces an edible red berry in winter. A four season native!
Good Morning! 🥔 I enjoy watching the evolution & the growth of your property! I am getting ideas for ground cover! I start my day watching your videos, they put me in a good mood! 😃🌿🥔💚
A little unrelated to the video, but was super excited this morning when I got my notification that the kneeling pads were shipped! Thank you to the GA team for working so hard on getting those out!
What a great idea to use herbs as ground cover plants! I bet the Thyme smelt wonderful 😍 I've just planted some Erigeron Karvinskianus 'Lavender Lady', Geum Mai Tai, Geum Cosmopolitan Cocktails and several Hardy Geraniums (Rozanne, Alaska Rivers, Biokova and Geranium St Ola) so hopefully I'll have less soil for weeds to grow and lots of beautiful flowers for the bees and butterflies 🌸🐝🦋💕
Funny I’ve just come in for lunch having planted several ground cover plants I took cuttings of last Autumn. Including the variegated Ajuga , which is so easy to propagate. I agree with Laura they are indispensable to stop weeds and retain moisture in the soil.❤️👩🌾🇫🇷
Awwwwwww Laura. I just love your videos. I was hoping to see little B out there helping you. I love the other video when he said you have to remind him. I am excited to see the yield them spuds are going to produce. Thanks for another awesome video.. See uuuu in the next one. Be blessed. 🪴💜
I planted Ajuga...it is now EVERYWHERE! In the lawn in my garden beds and across the lane from me. 1 little piece caught on a lawn mower or rake can spread and take. Careful peeps.
Your kiddos are getting so big! Time goes by so quickly. Keep enjoying your time with them. I have so many wonderful memories of my 2 sons when they were little like that. They are embedded in my mind. Photos are not necessary. 😊
I'm catching up on your videos this morning for some inspiration. My front garden beds are taken over by weeds, so I plan to go tackle those today. But first, Garden Answer inspiration!
Thank you for your wonderful videos. I find them so inspiring. My husband always asks if I have watched Laura yet today knowing how much I enjoy you. One question: What do you have planned for planting around the fountain and under the Locust tree in the front of your house? I have been looking forward to seeing what you will do there. Thanks again for all you share.
I love that you are using ground covers. I too have stared to plant ground covers to keep weeds down and add color. I’m in Fl and I found that lemon coral sedum and portulaca make a great ground cover. I would have never thought of planting them if it wasn’t for your channel, which I absolutely love❤️
Hi Laura, I am so envious of your beautiful gardens. I was wondering if you would consider doing a video showing how some plants are growing at this time of year and what to look for such as roses. I see many people worried about how their roses are growing especially when it comes to new growth as it can look so different and what to do if they spot aphids or any diseases or fungus. It’s something i noticed on some fb pages about gardening and just thought it would be a good idea for a video
With such nice, fluffy soil I would think you might plant some carrots or turnips along with your peppers and corn. Your channel is wonderful to watch and learn from every morning. Thank you.
Okay. So your explanation of planting potatoes has encouraged me. I have been wanting to plant some for quite a while. But know nothing about it, so thank you. And I love that pink variegated ajuga. Oh my, I've never never seen it, but i'm going to get it for ground cover in one of my gardens. ❤❤
Laura,, Among your so many talents…I love how you explain light source and how it effects the plants. Also I was just wondering where the cats where and Douglas showed up🤣 Do you feed them treats to show up on camera…ha, ha, ha.
I love ajuga! So many varieties! The bees go crazy when in bloom. I kept wanting to ask if you liked it, but , some people got a bit cringy saying non native, invasive. It does spread , but not crazy, and so easy to pull and move. Thanks for my daily break.
Love your ground covers. That is what I really need to focus more on this year also. Thanks for the tips. Your little buddy is very friendly today...lol
Love the ground covers. I was hoping you would plant Samantha’s choices out by the pond. When you were talking about them that is where I imagined them. Of course they are needed everywhere and I know you have a plan for the pond area. Thanks again for your inspiration.
I love the ground covers. I have creeping Jenny in mine and I’m switching it out a little bit at a time for different varieties because it could take over everything and it’s too much of a good thing I want I want some pink and I want some blues. I want a few other colors in there but I love that 14 inch container at a time that’s about it and it works. Thank you again for sharing your family and your garden with us. It’s lovely.!
I would plant sunflowers in the area that you had the foxgloves. They pull all toxins out of the soil and that should give you peace of mind. I actually tested this out with an accidental oil spill in my raised bed garden… totally worked! It was a really fun experiment.
Oh my goodness....I thought Burgundy Glow was the only pink variegated ajuga 😮. Those pink blooms are gorgeous, I'm going to have to find some of that for my ajuga collection
I’m surprised you didn’t use your kneeling pad for the potatoes. I’ve finally convinced my husband to help me get rid of the grass for a different ground cover like clover. I’m definitely wanting to add some of those ground covers to our gardens though.
My garden is small and it is pretty much jammed shoulder to shoulder with perennials and shrubs. I am now focusing on ground covers to fill in the gaps.p so this was timely for me. I discovered feathered friends ajuga last year. This is a chartreuse ajuga. Brightens shade.
Your property is turning out so beautiful. are you planning on giving garden tours at some point? It looks like a botanical garden. I love that your little mini me likes to help. so cute!
Hi Laura ! Thanks for all you do. I’m inspired by you often Don’t you worry about ground covers taking over a space and choking out other plants intermixed with it ?
Love all your plant choices today! and Thanks for pointing out those ajuga's, lol ,now I know the mysterious flowers that are growing in my ivy this year!Thought they were weeds, and I have pulling them out too!!
Happy Thursday, Laura! Love seeing the varieties of ground covers. Something my gardens need desperately, but I do not see them often in garden centers in my area. Thanks for sharing your beautiful gardens with us each day. Always inspiring and motivating. Love your channel and look forward to your videos each day.
Great video. It reminded me that I need to put ground coverage in my flower beds. The potatoe planting was a good refresher. Thank you for all that you do Laura and Erin.
Would you ever plant potatoes in grow bags ? I love your videos thank you guys for sharing your family with all of us!!! You guys are such a blessing!🥰
Just a tip my father taught me when growing potatoes . When your potatoe plant start blooming if you pinch off the blooms if puts more growth into the potatoes instead of the plant . I've did this for years . He would have been 113 this yr .
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this tip. 🙂
may god bless his soul
You can dry the blooms no? I think ive read that you can make a tea with them. That would be awesome to try.

❤ God be with you
@@waitingpatientlyforsummer thank you. He’s in the hospital today so we appreciate it!
To you as well. Praying for your husband to be well very soon. 🙏🏻
Much prayer going up for you and your husband ..
Happy birthday wishes to Laura, it was on the 20th. God bless you!!! 🤗🙏🏼😍🎉🥳🎊😘🎂🎁🌹
Of course Laura was born in Spring! Happy belated birthday, Laura!

I love the ground covered that Samantha selected. I can see a pattern emerging with her plant choices -- anything with flowers, especially pink! 🌸🌸🌸🌸
What a productive day you have had. Potatoes planted. Beautiful ground covers in and allowing us to see how beautifully your garden is waking up. Have a blessed day everyone.
Laura’s my comfort person for real🫶🫶

Your garden is so beautiful.
Yes, Laura that sweet little plant did look like it was an epic medium. They are such darling little woodland plants.
I never get tired watching you plant. It is okay that you speed it up.
What a beautiful choice of ground covers in such a smart idea. I love it, enjoying your videos with my cup of tea. 👍🥰❤️Liz in California

The condition of the soil in the South Garden is amazing after planting & mulching from even just a couple of years. When you were planting the wooly thyme, I noticed the dramatic improvement!!!
“One four inch container at a time.” My kind of gardener!! 💚💫💚
Douglas is such a beautiful cat!
Glad he calmed down a bit
@@Skattie yes! He certainly was spicy when he first came around!
He is, and it is nice that he has relaxed. But I feel so sorry for Russell.

The groundcover will make a difference in time. Thanks for showing us about planting the potatoes.
Those "Brass Buttons Yarrow" flowers reminded me of Horten Hears A Who 😂
Samantha has got an eye for beautiful plants like her Momma . 🤍💕
Always so nice to see plants waking up in spring! Everything looks so fresh and green, love it!

Aww Douglas's white wittle paws are the cutest.
Love the ground covers! Can’t wait to see them fill in!💚

I have learned so much about efficiency by watching you!
Good good evening to all!
Funny I’ve just come in for lunch having planted several ground cover plants I took cuttings of last Autumn. Including the variegated Ajuga , which is so easy to propagate. I agree with Laura they are indispensable to stop weeds and retain moisture in the soil.❤️👩🌾🇫🇷
That sweet little plant at 18:40 is epimedium, it is one of my favorites! Thank you for all the wonderful content.

I love my feathered friends ajuga with bright blue flowers. Such a bright green igot from great gardens.
Now that you have new areas to plant, I'd love to see an arboretum area of more rare plants
I planted Ajuga...it is now EVERYWHERE! In the lawn in my garden beds and across the lane from me. 1 little piece caught on a lawn mower or rake can spread and take. Careful peeps.
Yep, that happened in our lawn. We’ll never get rid of it.
My husband would divorce me if I ever brought ajuga home again!!!
Where was Benjamin on your potato planting day? Missed his excitement of being your helper. I bet he was having fun on his new play area!
Another productive day love all the flowers.
Your kiddos are getting so big! Time goes by so quickly. Keep enjoying your time with them. I have so many wonderful memories of my 2 sons when they were little like that. They are embedded in my mind. Photos are not necessary. 😊
Are you lucky to be a grandma yet? I get so much joy from my 3 grandchildren.
@DebWh Yes, I am. But I'm not around them, sad to say!
Hopefully if I get to plant all the plants I have this year, next year will focus on ground cover. Thanks Laura! Blessings 💞🙏🏻💞
Love love love all the ground covers. Your garden is just so beautiful. The music in the video is so soothing. Thank you to all involved.❤❤❤
Beautiful garden. The ground covers are so nice.
I'm so excited about the groundcovers. They add so much for the garden.
I'm catching up on your videos this morning for some inspiration. My front garden beds are taken over by weeds, so I plan to go tackle those today. But first, Garden Answer inspiration!

I love ajuga! So many varieties! The bees go crazy when in bloom. I kept wanting to ask if you liked it, but , some people got a bit cringy saying non native, invasive. It does spread , but not crazy, and so easy to pull and move. Thanks for my daily break.
Love your ground covers. That is what I really need to focus more on this year also. Thanks for the tips. Your little buddy is very friendly today...lol
The best part of my day..watching Garden Answer with my coffee..
Love the ground covers. I was hoping you would plant Samantha’s choices out by the pond. When you were talking about them that is where I imagined them. Of course they are needed everywhere and I know you have a plan for the pond area. Thanks again for your inspiration.
Please add the benches in the openings on the West side like you showed yesterday!! It was so pretty!
I love the ground covers. I have creeping Jenny in mine and I’m switching it out a little bit at a time for different varieties because it could take over everything and it’s too much of a good thing I want I want some pink and I want some blues. I want a few other colors in there but I love that 14 inch container at a time that’s about it and it works. Thank you again for sharing your family and your garden with us. It’s lovely.!
Epimedium was the ground cover you couldn't remember... I love that plant!
Was watching this video and realized I need to transplant some Ajuga so off I go! Will finish watching this video later😊
😊
Good pick Samantha >>>> White Rock Cress is so lovely. 💮💮💮
Pink Lightening Ajuga Bugleweed is on my wishlist!!
I would plant sunflowers in the area that you had the foxgloves. They pull all toxins out of the soil and that should give you peace of mind. I actually tested this out with an accidental oil spill in my raised bed garden… totally worked! It was a really fun experiment.
Look at Mr. Douglas haven’t seen him in a while😁. Loved all the plants that you planted I can’t wait see it fill in. It’s going to look amazing.
Thank you, Laura. 😊
Oh my goodness....I thought Burgundy Glow was the only pink variegated ajuga 😮. Those pink blooms are gorgeous, I'm going to have to find some of that for my ajuga collection
I’m surprised you didn’t use your kneeling pad for the potatoes. I’ve finally convinced my husband to help me get rid of the grass for a different ground cover like clover. I’m definitely wanting to add some of those ground covers to our gardens though.
Yay for ajuga! Such a versatile groundcover. I have a bunch planted below my Otto Luyken English Laurels. It’s my favorite groundcover. 💜
You’re so lucky to be able to grow Ajuga without it being invasive. In western WA it becomes so invasive it shows up in the lawn!!
I would love to know more about the awesome hoses I see on your property!
My garden is small and it is pretty much jammed shoulder to shoulder with perennials and shrubs. I am now focusing on ground covers to fill in the gaps.p so this was timely for me. I discovered feathered friends ajuga last year. This is a chartreuse ajuga. Brightens shade.
Great bit of relaxation, watching you plant the ground covers.
Also, really like the music today! 😊
Lyn in the UK 😁
The ground cover plants are so nessary and beautiful ❤
I've been looking for ground covers for some areas in my garden. Thank you! 😊
Your property is turning out so beautiful. are you planning on giving garden tours at some point? It looks like a botanical garden. I love that your little mini me likes to help. so cute!
Hi Laura !
Thanks for all you do. I’m inspired by you often
Don’t you worry about ground covers taking over a space and choking out other plants intermixed with it ?
Just a lot of beautiful plants today. I agree with you on ground cover plants look so beautiful and they help the ground to.
Love all your plant choices today! and Thanks for pointing out those ajuga's, lol ,now I know the mysterious flowers that are growing in my ivy this year!Thought they were weeds, and I have pulling them out too!!
