Russel just loves being with you guys! He is so funny. What makes your videos so engaging is a total combination of your gorgeous gardens, your very personable talks (you are talking to your friends and it shows) Aaron's fantastic camera and editing work and Russel's antics. I really like it when you engage and bring Aaron into the video so he's not just the "camera". Thanks so much for all your hard work. I don't know how you do it. My husband is sure you have help maintaining your gardens because he has seen mine (weeds!) I don't have near the amount of space you do, but sure would love to do what you do with yours.
You have a gorgeous property and have completed so much work in such a short time, with so much love and enthusiasm. Thank you for sharing it with us. Enjoy!
I get home from work and first thing I want to do after all the daily "settling in" with the kids is watch your show....it truly puts me at ease....even my daughter's LOVE IT!
Laura and Aaron - I own a small nursery in Traverse City, MI - not far from Mackinaw Island. I sell Proven Winners plants. I direct a lot of my customers to your videos for bed design and lay out. Please continue to stay true to describing each plant in detail as you do. This really helps my customers plan their own beds and draw on your great artistic eye. Love your work here. Keep the videos coming!
Russell is just so funny and how he loves staying right by you, too cute . 😍 Love your garden tours.💕 Your wrought iron fence is beautiful and would look pretty at your back door, also love those Cinderella pumpkins , wish I could grow them here🎃. Have a wonderful day.
Omg, only you would see a cluster of mushrooms and say, oh, I can make a fairy garden there! And that's why I love watching your videos! Russell is so darn cute following you guys around, he loves y'all so much. I can't wait to see Aaron's Christmas light extravaganza this year!
Beautiful! I don't know how you have the time and energy to do all of that work. God Bless you both for all you guys do. You have a beautiful place. You are perfect for one another.
You know Laura and Aaron, of all the videos that you produce, I just love your garden tour videos the best. It is because they are longer and I can sit down with a cup of coffee and kick back and relax for a while.
Well Laura...I know you think garden tours get mundane but not for most of us...comments just reiterate that. You could probably do two garden tours per month with as much as you have going on...and I don’t think many of us would disapprove. Lol. Your sanctuary/‘yard’ gets more and more beautiful justifying all your hard work. I’m so envious. Just when I want to give up watering in the dead of summer I watch your videos and you inspire to get out there and keep going. Thanks!!!!
I am one of the many viewers that love your garden tours as well as all of your wonderful videos! I will rewatch them several times just to pause the video to write down the names of different plants that I want to try in my Nebraska zone 5 garden. After discovering your channel several months ago ...I have actually watched all of your videos (lots of them more than once) as well as your second Garden Answer channel and the Proven Winners videos that you are in. Russell is the funniest cat, such a cute little character! Keep making these fantastic videos (you know we'll keep watching)! It's alway a treat when your sweet baby boy Benjamin and hubby Aaron are included in the filming.
i actually said "yes" outloud when i saw a new tour was uploaded! my family just looked at me like 'ooookay'... Russell is on fire today! great tour thanks so much!
Laura, you have the most beautiful garden ever. Such pretty surprises around every corner and I just love, love Russell. Thanks for this gorgeous tour and the info on how you get your flowers to flourish.
Beautiful gardens. Russell would love chasing feathers on a string, he is adorable. I do not know how you both get so much done every season, let alone every day. Enjoy your videos very much,THANK YOU. WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU PLAY THE PIANO!!!!
Everything looks amazing!!! Russell cracks me up!!! Thanks for the tour 😁 I would love it if you did a video on digging up your tubers and storing them, I planted dahlias this year and I’m not sure what to do thanks 😁
🌸🦋🌸 Oh My Word Laura - all your hard work this year really does show when you look at all the beautiful areas of your gardens. The alyssum is unbelievable!!! Those hydrangeas are huge and gorgeous. My favorite spot is the pallet walkway and how it meanders. Hope you have meandering pathway where all the grass was removed. Also, some built up stone beds that create little secret sitting areas. Fountains, benches statues and anything else elemental would be nice. Would be awesome if you can’t see the other end as you are walking through it. Great teamwork y’all in making all your videos. Aaron does amazing at editing, adding the right pics and music to the videos. 🐾🐾 Russell was ready for filming today. He’s so funny, cute and adorable. 💜 Love him. 🐾🐾 Thanks for sharing. Hugs 🤗 🌻🍂 Happy Fall Y’all 🍂🌻
I love coming back to your previous years videos and seeing how far you have progressed. Its amazing how you talk about what you want for each space and it gives me inspiration for my own garden. We live in Ohio but our seasons are very similar. PS- my husband says you are a bad influence on me, cuz all I want to buy is plants 😂😂😂
Your garden is as magical as always, that circle brick area had me shooked!! Watching rustle play around in the garden is making me cackle LOL It would be so interesting having a few chickens around your garden! They're so fun to be around~
Love it, all looks great! Especially loved hearing the train toot in background -sweet!! My childhood years, lived right near train depot, and train still travels through there🚆🚇 🚆🤗keep it up!
omg the dark grass and foliage is so beautiful, i love gothic gardens and i am going to have that in my garden! I wish i could have Russell too, he is so damn adorable
Such a fabulous tour of your fall garden!! Love updates and even problems...makes us "normal" people feel hopeful. 😉 I look so forward to every video! Your steps...to die for!! Have a happy day!!💚🍁🎃🍂🌼 Bring on the lights!!✨🌟💫
I am watching this in 2021. Laura everything looks wonderful. The light purple asylum are beautiful and I did not know it came in any other color than white. By the way Russell cracks me up. He is darling.
Your efforts show your dedication and care for this beautiful garden. I see your stress in what needs to come next. From my perspective, you are moving at a grand pace, we see amazing results. I want to say relax and enjoy - you are doing a splendid job. I have two boys in their late twenties now, I just see how hard you work, remember my worry with work and balance. Take your time, everyone following loves your progress.
Your Smiles when you go into different parts of your front and back garden. I have been following your vids for so long, love seeing the new varieties that you bring into your garden each year and some faves. x
I love, love, love it when you post a new video. I don't know how you find the time, but I have to tell you it makes my day. I do a happy dance. I get very cranky if some one interferes with my watching you & your family. As much as I love listening & watching your, Russell gives me the giggles. We have two Pit mix rescues & we are down to 5 cat rescues. They give so much love & joy to our family. My husband is a pet person threw & threw. I kid him all the time that he was a cat in a previous life. LOL
You guys have such a gorgeous garden! Thanks for sharing Laura! Aaron no airial view this time? Missed it! It's nice to see the whole garden from the top in the end! 💜💜🍂🍁🍊💜💜
WOW your dahlia grasses raised bed is A M A Z I N G ! I love your movies and often watch it with my 3 year old daughter during breakfast . They are Such an inspiration and one of the reasons I love gardening (still a hopeless rookie but learning a lot) 😊 thank you!
I’m addicted to your videos. I watch them over and over and see new things every time. My garden has improved thanks to your videos! I love the maintenance videos that show the behind the scenes work involved. Thank you!
Great tour! Love to see how each type of plant did. I planted the lemon coral sedum in my front garden this year based on your garden and as you would say “oh my goodness” it is beautiful. The lime green color is so bright and different. AND now I am not afraid to pull out plants I do not like (landscaper planted) and try something different. Thanks Laura.
You may have to cover the base of your baby maple with a collar to keep Russell from sharpening his nails on it. It looks like he's picked it as his favorite.
Garden goals for sure! Im in New Zealand love watching your videos. I have three children so not enough spare time or money to spend on the garden but we do have a large garden so hopefully one day it will come together 😊
I bought 25 David Austin rose bushes and planted them in my garden in one long row and it was beautiful and every time I go outside I can’t stop thinking about how much you would love it!🌸🌸🌸🌸🌼
I am dying over your hair it is SO Gorgeous ! And wanted to mention you give me so much inspiration! I've started making wreaths and selling them. I'm hoping to make enough Christmas wreaths to sell for the sidewalk sale Thanksgiving week and the Black Friday week afterwards at our PX (we live on a Military base)
Love every single one of your videos especially fall……my fav. Such an entertainment. From bloopers to Russell to Benjamin to all the trips to the nursery. I watch these videos more than tv. Kudos to you both for all you do for these videos for us. Nice job!! So excited to see all you will plant in the new area.
I get so many ideas from you, and good advice! I’m in SC, lots of humid heat!! Doesn’t Russell add so much to your garden/life. My kitty likes grasses😊❤️🐾
Aaron panning over to Russell was the funniest thing! That is one hammy kitty. 🐱
Love your garden.
Am I the only one who does a little happy clap when Garden Answer posts a new garden tour? :)
Leigh Houston literally when I wake up in the morning and see “garden answer garden tour” I’m like YES!! 🙌🏻
Me too! Your not alone
Garden tour + coffee = best morning ever
Every time!!!!!!!
I love Garden Answer, I watch everday
Russel just loves being with you guys! He is so funny.

Wendy you have expressed almost to the T what I was going to say!! Love that Russell (I am biased to ginger cats ) :)
Amazing what two people can accomplish when they have a passion.
Just watched this tour for a second time. Laura, I can tell in your voice you are so proud of your work, and you should be! It's beautiful! Good job!
You have a gorgeous property and have completed so much work in such a short time, with so much love and enthusiasm. Thank you for sharing it with us. Enjoy!
I love how Russell follows you around the garden! He is so happy!
Your garden is just amazing! Love all your garden tours! I also love watching Russell trying to steal the show lol.

I love that Russell follows along on the tour! What a cutie! The gardens are so beautiful! 😍
These videos are so relaxing and I love watching them at work to imagine I'm out in the garden instead :)
And two years later, you have your brick walkway all from the same material. :-) Lovely!
I cant even believe how different your property is now! (August 2021!) This is so fun to watch, retro Garden Answer videos rock!
I think you should totally keep the root cellar for when Benjamin gets older he will love to play in that thing! The best clubhouse ever!
Gosh your garden looks like it is straight out of a fairy tale
I love how Russell follows you guys everywhere lol 💖
I love seeing the little appearances of Russell! He is too cute.
Omg! Those Dalias in the brick planter! I love them! 👍❤️. Truly, everything looks amazing!
love your tours. beautiful as always
"Russell, you are full of beans!" You make me laugh. He really is a great kitty! Love those alyssum.
awesome tour Laura and Aaron , your garden is stunning, but Russel stole the show. He is the cutest.
Russell is just so funny and how he loves staying right by you, too cute . 😍 Love your garden tours.💕 Your wrought iron fence is beautiful and would look pretty at your back door, also love those Cinderella pumpkins , wish I could grow them here🎃. Have a wonderful day.
Russell is the animated version of "photo bomb". He's hilarious!

Popo
Russell, your cat, believes he is gardening too. Really enjoyed him.😍
I love your railings. Never change them, please! ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful! I don't know how you have the time and energy to do all of that work. God Bless you both for all you guys do. You have a beautiful place. You are perfect for one another.
Love how honest and real you are about your garden. It's gorgeous. Just like you and your little family.
Your videos are such a lovely constant in my life. They add a nice calm to it, plus your positive nature brings a smile to my face. Thank you!
You know Laura and Aaron, of all the videos that you produce, I just love your garden tour videos the best. It is because they are longer and I can sit down with a cup of coffee and kick back and relax for a while.

I am so ready for spring, and here I am watching a garden tour from October 😂
What a beautiful garden! You must have tons of butterflies all over those pretty blooms! 🌼🌸🌺
I am one of the many viewers that love your garden tours as well as all of your wonderful videos! I will rewatch them several times just to pause the video to write down the names of different plants that I want to try in my Nebraska zone 5 garden.

I love the leaves on the ground by your pumpkins, it's autumn confetti! 🍂🍁🍃
Had to hit "like" when I saw Russell playing. He's so cute!
Beautiful as always, and Russell cracks me up playing. He is so cute. Him and my Max could be brothers
Russell is like a Where's Waldo book.....he keeps popping up and we find him. 🥰
i actually said "yes" outloud when i saw a new tour was uploaded! my family just looked at me like 'ooookay'... Russell is on fire today! great tour thanks so much!
Laura, you have the most beautiful garden ever. Such pretty surprises around every corner and I just love, love Russell. Thanks for this gorgeous tour and the info on how you get your flowers to flourish.
Hello there, your garden is a dream for so many of us, for so many reasons. Keep up a good job!
Beautiful gardens. Russell would love chasing feathers on a string, he is adorable. I do not know how you both get so much done every season, let alone every day. Enjoy your videos very much,THANK YOU. WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU PLAY THE PIANO!!!!
Everything looks amazing!!! Russell cracks me up!!! Thanks for the tour 😁 I would love it if you did a video on digging up your tubers and storing them, I planted dahlias this year and I’m not sure what to do thanks 😁
Great and inspirational tour! Russell is a 💫 star!!!!😻😻😻
My thoughts exactly. Fall garden tour starring Russell, co-starring Laura. He's a scene stealer for sure!
would love to see a video of the garden at night with all the uplighting and drama
🌸🦋🌸 Oh My Word Laura - all your hard work this year really does show when you look at all the beautiful areas of your gardens. The alyssum is unbelievable!!! Those hydrangeas are huge and gorgeous. My favorite spot is the pallet walkway and how it meanders. Hope you have meandering pathway where all the grass was removed. Also, some built up stone beds that create little secret sitting areas. Fountains, benches statues and anything else elemental would be nice. Would be awesome if you can’t see the other end as you are walking through it.
Great teamwork y’all in making all your videos. Aaron does amazing at editing, adding the right pics and music to the videos.
🐾🐾 Russell was ready for filming today. He’s so funny, cute and adorable. 💜 Love him. 🐾🐾
Thanks for sharing. Hugs 🤗
🌻🍂 Happy Fall Y’all 🍂🌻
OH my! After a weekend of hard work this is exactly what I need! Thank you! Much love from zone 10b.
I'm also in zone 10b - SoCal beach area.
I love coming back to your previous years videos and seeing how far you have progressed. Its amazing how you talk about what you want for each space and it gives me inspiration for my own garden. We live in Ohio but our seasons are very similar. PS- my husband says you are a bad influence on me, cuz all I want to buy is plants 😂😂😂
God is at work in your garden. Such abundant proof of His existence. Blessings to you and your wonderful family.
Your garden is as magical as always, that circle brick area had me shooked!!
Watching rustle play around in the garden is making me cackle LOL
It would be so interesting having a few chickens around your garden! They're so fun to be around~
Just WOW again! You certainly have 10 green thumbs ! Amazing!
It's so cute how your kitty follows you everywhere!
I would love to learn more about digging out dahlia tubers and taking them in over winter.
What’s a transformation! I actually went back to look at your old videos when you first move in! What’s an amazing change!
Love your garden tours so much! #lifegoals 😍😍😍
Me too!!!!! I wake up and see garden answer tour........ Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!l yesssssssss!!!!!! Happy dance
I just love orange/purple combo, so pretty!
So much beauty and inspiration!! Thank you, Laura, Aaron & Russell for the tour!! :)

Love it, all looks great! Especially loved hearing the train toot in background -sweet!! My childhood years, lived right near train depot, and train still travels through there🚆🚇 🚆🤗keep it up!
Laura you can use floral puffy to make the squash stay in place. 😬
You're as real as they come. I'm happy I cane across your channel. Makes my day to see and hear you....mistakes and all...so real. Just like nature.
Everything is beautiful! Russel tries to steal the show. Great job!
Russell steals the show!!! What a beautiful peaceful home you have. I thought mushrooms in a yard were a bad thing 🧐.
I was just telling my husband how much I LOVE that stair rail last week when I saw it in a picture.
Just Amazing. All your hard work is paying off.
Oh Russell you little attention cat, he really is loving his garden lol

@gardenanswer I have a ginger kitty too and he does the same thing in my crimson queen Japanese maple. Lol!!
You guys have such a gorgeous garden! Thanks for sharing Laura!
Aaron no airial view this time? Missed it! It's nice to see the whole garden from the top in the end! 💜💜🍂🍁🍊💜💜
After seeing some of your pumpkin decor I filled a shallow oval planter with an assortment of mini pumpkins and gourds. Looks great on my front steps.
I love your garden tours...hoses laid out and all. And Russell is acting like our four legs....those cool temps really get’em going. 😍😍
WOW your dahlia grasses raised bed is A M A Z I N G ! I love your movies and often watch it with my 3 year old daughter during breakfast . They are Such an inspiration and one of the reasons I love gardening (still a hopeless rookie but learning a lot) 😊 thank you!

Your alyssum looks gorgeous----like a princess garden. thank you for sharing your beautiful garden and your time!
These are my favorite videos!! Couldn't wait until coffee time to watch.
You may have to cover the base of your baby maple with a collar to keep Russell from sharpening his nails on it. It looks like he's picked it as his favorite.
Thanks Aaron for the suggestion!
Yippee my favourite are the garden tours. :)
Garden goals for sure! Im in New Zealand love watching your videos. I have three children so not enough spare time or money to spend on the garden but we do have a large garden so hopefully one day it will come together 😊
Russell needs his own fan club! Maybe some Russell merch???
I bought 25 David Austin rose bushes and planted them in my garden in one long row and it was beautiful and every time I go outside I can’t stop thinking about how much you would love it!🌸🌸🌸🌸🌼
Thanks for sharing. The pinky winky hydrangeas are so pretty. That will a must on my next year list of plants.
Your garden areas are so beautiful. Little Russell is so darn cute and he loves the garden tour too. You definitely have a green thumb.
I am dying over your hair it is SO Gorgeous ! And wanted to mention you give me so much inspiration! I've started making wreaths and selling them. I'm hoping to make enough Christmas wreaths to sell for the sidewalk sale Thanksgiving week and the Black Friday week afterwards at our PX (we live on a Military base)
You go girl! Air Force here!
Thank you both 🙏🏼

Me too! I think some of these plants in our state would require GALLONS of H2O!
I enjoyed the tour and look forward to the next one. Have a great day.
