Hearing Aaron say, ‘good job, I’m proud of you” to Laura for cutting off the tree branches sounded so much like Benjamin saying to Samantha “good job, Baby” earlier in the video. You’re such a fun and supportive family your videos always makes my heart happy. I remember when you laid that pallet wood walkway, it’s so hard to visualize how that area looked before. The progress you’re making is astonishing and always motivating. Thanks for being you!
Exactly
You said exactly everything I wanted to say, but you said more eloquently!!!❤
@@theresarasche3173thank you, I struggle for words most days. 😂
I'm not going to lie. Im going to miss that little wooden pathway i remember when you made it. I hope to see it somewhere in the future, but I have to agree it didn't fit the space any longer. Change is good and sometimes necessary! Beautiful job, Laura!
I was thinking the same thing.
My same thoughts! I’ve been mourning it since she said they would likely take it out sometime in the future. But it will be good!
Me too! I think she only had about 60,000 subscribers when she put that in! It was 5 years ago!!!! Time flys by so quickly
Agree so much! I felt sentimental about the pallet walkway
It looked so different then, much more of a secret path. I am sure we will see it again maybe near the pond.
My heart broke a little watching that come up! I loved how it was a sweet cottage garden with the tucked in little path. Hopefully it makes an appearance somewhere else!
Benjamin is such a good big brother! “Baby, you’re doing it!” Out of all the impressive accomplishments you and Aaron have made at your home, those two are the most precious! I firmly believe one person can change the world. One person at a time. Thank you so much for the positive impact you both have on this world!
Oh, my heart melts when I see Benjamin and Samantha spending time helping Laura with her projects. Making memories for sure as a family! Bravo...Great Job! ❤
Yes! How cool is it going to be when the kids are older to be able to look back at this and other footage! I’m of an era before everyone had cell phones with cameras so footage of my siblings and I are non existent. Such sweet memories they will have to look back on!
Little Benjamin warms my heart. It is so sweet that he wanted to protect your flowers. And on top of it, he even constructed that fence. Priceless.
He sure is following in his grandparents and parents shoes! Totally precious! 🥰
I love the little basket boy there… makes me think he’s coming from around the corner after picking some flowers. 👩🏼🌾
So funny, everyone has a different opinion! When I see an arbor, I think it invites you to walk through it. I don't like the basket boy obstructing the pathway....BUT...this is Laura's garden and Laura's vision! I soooooo appreciate watching everything I see in these videos.
I do too! I wonder if she has just a little something/something to place under him to raise him up just a little. But I think he is the perfect scale for that area.
@@sallycapotosto6927I was thinking the same thing. Maybe prop him up on top of something. I think he looks so cute there.
I think it's cute too ☺️
A small pedestal would be nice for the boy..he’s even looking down.
Laura - when your hen is singing or crowing as it were, she is letting you know that she has just laid an egg! Like everything else at GA, the chickens are beautiful! Thank you for keeping us with you as you design and clean - you are inspiring!
Yes, She was singing her “egg song” 🎶 🐓
For now, the scale of the basket boy may look off, but when the wisteria grows and fills in the space, its goung to be just right. I am sure of it! ❤
That’s exactly what
I was thinking…
The sweet encouragement from Benjamin to his sister, mamas encouragement to Benjamin, Aaron’s encouragement to Laura and vice versa…….these are sounds of a great deal of love and mutual respect all the way around. Brought tears to my eyes more than once! Great video of all the stuff!
How blessed we are to get to be a part of Garden Answer and your lives. Thanks for sharing it with us, Laura and Aaron. We have come to love all of your family! And learn so much about gardening and be inspired at the same time. God bless you all.
A little stone bench on the opposite side of the chicken coop perpendicular to the arbor would create a little secret place where you could watch the chickens. I can picture you with your talent making a wonderful little serene hiding place , maybe a tiny water feature, or something. Your vision always turns out beautiful. Can’t wait to see what you do with it in the future ❤
Yes! A hidden garden nook would be so cool!
I think you should leave the basket boy. With the growth of that wisteria anything bigger will get covered. Looks awesome cleaned up! Your videos lately have inspired my clean garden clean up! 🥰🥰
Maybe for now a tall thriller could do the job...
It’s so considerate of you to keep Benjamin’s fence up, and so sweet of him to care so much about protecting the flowers. Nice to see the cats 🐈 🐈 (supervising) and the kids helping mama out with projects - it’s a great way for them to learn.
I’m absolutely amazed at the difference in that area from when I started watching in 2020 and the way it looks now - what a transformation! Thanks for taking us along and for all the pruning pointers!
It was nice to see the pallet walkway area again! Your children are growing up in wisdom and truth. Yall are doing a great job!
Once you got the pallets removed I could definitely see why you removed them. I like the arbor and statue.
Thanks for the clear and concise instructions on how to prune the Zephyrine Rose. The tree with the branches removed looks great too. Can't wait to see the snowdrops and daffodils soon!
I think the basket boy is perfect! When the wisteria is green and draping, it'll be a nice frame for it. It also gives you a little room to plant something special in the basket 😊
Watching you prune the climbing rose I was really struck by the artistry and knowledge you have. Thank you for sharing.
I just loved this one! I got everything I needed today...a little cleanup, a little flowers, a little family time, and a little Laura sass😂😂😂"I like it."
Benjamin...that boy! He is such an amazingly cheerful helper and encouraging big brother! What a shining young man❤
What a difference! And your helpers did such a good job. I love seeing you children wanting to help and you always are enthusiastic to let them help. I especially liked when Benjamin came out he said “Can I help you?” I loved his fence…he really is learning to be future big helper for you and I also liked that you are leaving it up till the flowers start to come up. I always learn something new from you and especially the proper way to trim plants…thank you again for a great video 💕
Thank you, Lauren and Aaron, for sharing your life with us. And teaching at the same time I do rewatch your videos every spring because I’m always confused about pruning climber. The other ones I got down pat, the climber just confused me. I have several weeks before I will be pruning my back it’s Michigan. We are going to be 62 tomorrow and 28th the next day so I’m not in a hurry to do anything much for a while. I love it that Benjamin built you a fence to protect your flowers. How freaking sweet is that! And helping you tear up that pallet walkway and when Samantha was able to pull out by herself Benjamin saying “good job baby “ how wonderful what sweet memories you are making
Bev says that's not how we do it!!! The coop and chickens is one of my favorite areas of your property. I love how you treat them as part of the family!!!
The chickens are soooo funny! That clucking was likely because she had just laid an egg...they tend to make a big announcement, but not always. It's very similar to the sound they make when a predator is close, just a tad different. When a hawk or another bird-type predator is above, they make a long screech type of sound. We'll hear this quite a bit while at poultry shows, when a sparrow or other bird happens into the building and fly's overhead.
OH MY GOSH. Samantha picked up on how to get the spikes out of the boards right away, and Benjamin exclaimed "Baby! You're doin' it!" (Oh, my heart. So precious!)
Oh, Benjamin saying baby you’re doing it was so sweet to encourage his little sister❤
I love that nothing looks perfect, YET!. Once the growing season is in full gear, the transformation of these areas are simply spectacular
I love how Benjamin was thinking ahead to protect your flower bed. More children need to outdoors doing activities and learning life skills. Cell phones and computers are not the answers, they are the destruction. I am so envious of your home as it is looking just so peaceful to sit out and enjoy after a hard day's work. Beautiful family!
You're so right Viola !! Get them outside !!
Cellphones and computers are destruction? 😂😂😂 Lol you know you're using one to make this comment, right??
I am aware of that, but I'm not a kid. As a senior, I spend most of my time outdoors.
Yes we're aware of that !!! I'm referring to the overuse of these devices kids spending too many hours online in lieu of other activities.
Your own little "Garden of Eden." So cozy and enclosed for your sweet family. And yet you share it. Thank you for including us. ❤
When Samantha came running down the path, she looked so much like your mom! ❤
I think she favors Susan so much!
I was just thinking the same thing
Benjamin's "Baby you're doing it!" took me out. So sweet and proud of his little sister, my heart!
Good morning! Oh how I love your chickens! I used to have 38 or so..mine would cackle like that when they had laid an egg, proud of what they had done! And love your kitties too, each with a different personality. Lovin their life! Thank you for sharing your life with us!
That's a mighty fine fence your son built for you! What a thoughtful little guy looking after mama's flowers.. and his encouraging his sister is the sweetest
Young Benjamin's thoughtfulness, by way of the fence, just melted my heart! His encouragement toward his sister is so sweet to see. Great job, mom!
I watch a lot of different RUclips garden channels and so appreciate the editing and pacing of your videos. So inspiring and exciting.
I like it when you occasionally slow down the video to real time for a few minutes that puts a true perspective on how long some of these tasks take...lol . And I am inspired to get out there and get after my clematis now I never really knew how to prepare it for it for the spring thank you so much😊
Yes, I would appreciate the videos not being speeded up so much so that we could see more detail of what Laura is doing.
What a great video. Benjamin is so cute. I love his fence and gentle nature. Laura, you are so clever at retooling areas in your garden. I always love seeing your children working with you. Great video 💚🐓🐈🐓
Great idea Aaron to get rid of those lower branches on the tree! It looks so much better!😀😀🌳
It's a sad day. The pallet walkway is one of my favorite projects that you have ever done. I am confident it will find a new home in a wonderful place elsewhere on the property. I am reminded of one of your basic tenants: "If you don't like it where it is, move it or get rid of it." That thought has given me such freedom in my garden now. Thanks for sharing your gardening life with us. And your sweetie kiddos too. An of course...Aaron too!
Good morning, Laura and Aaron, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b
I love the way you reason and rationalize with yourself ❤
Great job ❤
Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾👍
❤Peggy❤
I can see Benjamin is getting stronger every day!
I loved Benjamin saying, good job baby, to his sister. 🥰 Thank you for the climbing rose trim tutorial. I learned a lot. 😊
The basket boy will look WONDERFUL once the wisteria overtakes the space and he will be a perfect size! Sweet little eye catcher. I've had hibiscus all around my yard for 25 years and until today, I didn't realize I should cut them all back. They have reduced in blooms and now I will get at it and hopefully see a lot more as they are one of my favorite things - beautiful big bushes of color.
There are 2 different types of hibiscus. These are rose mallow types and die back to the ground every year like perennials. The roses of Sharon are typical woody shrubs and shouldn't be cut back.
@@Ibis333THANK YOU! Mine are Rose of Sharon - assume the Turks Cap is also. I hadn't made it out to the garden yet so you saved me work and some plants!
I love how you encourage the kids to help!! They are learning such great work ethics and the value and satisfaction that comes from hard work and teamwork and having fun doing it. No doubt they will grow up to be incredible adults. Future employers and future spouses will benefit in so many ways.
I love the little basket boy. He’d look really good set on a small pillar. I think if you put a piece of flagstone or small brick platform under it across the arbor it would ground it and make it more of the feel you’re wanting. Maybe plant some lovely white roses behind him to contrast the color of the wisteria. 💕
Love your videos. Could you put the basket boy in another pot to lift and you could plant up the base❤
Maybe a concrete bench under the arbor would be nice. With the walkway leading to it. Shaded by the vines. What a good helper Benjamin is! Enjoyed hearing him praising his little sister. ♥
Oh. Benjamin in his work gloves and sunglasses, instructing his sister. My heart.
I just love Benjamin's heart to want to protect mom's flowers. I love the archway and the Basket boy. When Benjamin then Samantha Grace came to help with the walkway it made my heart fill with joy.
It is so beautiful to see Benjamin and Samantha Grace helping out their mom. Enjoy them while you can. It always amazed my mom how my sister and brother would not help her in the garden and when we grew up and had our own house we all did some kind of gardening. I was able to play out in my yard today, I’ve been chomping at the bit to get outside and play in the yard. My project list will be growing in the next few weeks. Love the tips and info you give. Thank you.
When you figure out what you want to do with the area you’ll probably take out the rest of the pallet walkway, wisteria and arch. It’s something to look at in the meantime. Love how it’s evolving and that your kids wanted to help out-how cute were her gloves!
I agree, Aaron knows Laura best. She needs a little time to come to grips with change . Before we know it the whole area will be having a new spruce up !
@@21shalimar those blue spruces are glorious! One would look amazing there. Lol
I was impressed you listened to your chickens all animals form attachments. Sweet how your children help you.
Nice to see Benjamin and Samantha out enjoying helping! Nice work!
Seeing the kids helping away in the garden brings back so many happy memories, I was always so eager to help my mom in the garden, especially in Spring. Planting out spring crops and cleaning up; we grew up in Florida so our garden never really went to sleep so growing up a grandchild of a farmer the spring was go time! 😊
You were such a pleasure to watch! I love how the chickens have you wrapped around their little fingers, lol. I was thinking I bet you a bench seat would look really cute under that arbor that you just cleaned up instead of your little boy. Just a thought 😊
❤ I had to laugh about the wisteria. It’s kind of like the joke where the farmer had a three legged pig and when asked why he had a three legged pig he explained that the pig had saved his life one time. So since it was such a great pig, just can’t eat a pig like that all at one time.😅
Maybe a pedestal under the lovely basket boy? I adore your interactions with your children! They are such good little helpers. Benjamins' fence to protect the flowers is priceless! Blessings!
Purple cabbage looking awesome 💜
My goodness my heart! Benjamin and Samantha are the sweetest😊
Such a beautiful family, continued blessing always!
Please tuck a little bistro set under the wisteria arbor for spring and summer! What a cute way to use the the pathway. It would lead to a little oasis near the chickens! Even a little concrete bench would be cute. And temporary (for Aaron)
I really like the cute vista that the arbor and statue create. Don't get rid of it until you plant the boxwood and see how it looks. You just need a bigger statue there.
Love the fence Benjamin built to protect your flowerbed. Now that is love in motion! I recently watched a tutorial on rose pegging as they do in Sissinghurst. I think your climbing rose on the coop would be a perfect candidate to try this with. You tie the end of the canes to the ground creating an arch. It increases your blooms by 10 times and creates a beautiful arched espalier structure. Would the little witch hazel tree do well in a container as a patio tree? Yeah, I wouldn't want to give up the wisteria vine either.
I bet once the wisteria has blooms on it the scale will not look off with the basket boy planter. If I recall before you trimmed it up, it was pretty full with blooms and growth around the arbor it’s on.
How cool your kiddos are helping you now. They grow up so fast. 😊
Samantha reminds me SO much of your Mom!
Always smiling and up for some fun!
I love that your son wants to help you all the time. Not alot of kids do that..
Just want to take a moment to say thanks. The information and inspiration you guys share is valuable. However, just as valuable is providing us with a viewing entertainment alternative in this crazy world. So, THANK YOU! Your hard work is greatly appreciated!
Aarons laughter at the little basket boy was so amusing!
I love the basket boy under that arbour. What about putting him on a pedestal?
Also, it made me smile when you took the pallets up. In the UK, they would be completely rotten. I remember how much shade you got when you put that walkway down 😂
Aaron and your work ethics have inspired Benjamin. He’s thinking ahead for you mama.
It’s so cute watching your little family help you. Thank you for sharing them with us!💕
Your helpers are the best. They did a fantastic job! The chicken coop area looks great!
Thanks Laura for the pruning education. My (theoretical) pruning skill is improving. I’m saying “yes cut that one” before you decided. Pat on the back for me. 😂😂
Precious little helpers. I love how willing they are. And it’s their idea. Hope that sticks. lol. Not always. I love the little basket boy. He does need a special little spot.
I love how the kids helped and I loved Benjamin’s fence and naturally adorable as ever !!🩷🌺🌿🌸
❤️I am watching with my cup of coffee.
Yup, and I'm folding clothes. Thanks Laura!
Gosh so much sweetness the kiddos, chickens and the kitties in this video! I was thinking when I was outside early this morning in our yard “What would Laura do”? Our ground is still frozen here. I love the “basket boy”! Great job Laura!! Thanks for the video!
So satisfying watching Laura do the clean up. She makes it seem so easy 😊!!
Good good evening evryone!...They are cute little helpers, God bless!
Once that wisteria is in bloom and flushed out for the season, the basket boy might fit a little better.
How sweet, they will always love gardening and working in the yard so much family love.😍
Loved your little team of professionals helping with the planks. So sweet. 🥰
I appreciate that rose clean up demonstration, I planted that kind of rose on my potting shed…hope it looks a nice as yours
Love that your children want to help you. And you let them learn outside job around the home. Good parenting. 😊
🏆 Best big brother / helper award
🥇 Best little sister / helper award
Well done little LeBoutilliers ❤❤
Laura I admire your stamina in pruning. So much conviction and so fast. Guess that comes with experience, hope I’ll develop the same speed as you one day, soon.😆 As I find my garden work grows faster than I can keep up. Love to see your children help out and appreciate nature at an early age.
I cannot tell you how helpful it was seeing your climbing rose pruning! The way you explained it and showed us was amazing! Thank you Laura!
It’s fun to watch the kids get involved in your projects 💚
That little Benjamin has to be the sweetest young man. The encouragement he gave to his little sister was heartwarming, plus the fence he put up to protect his mama’s flowers - adorable! I love it when Aaron is in the video, his personality is just over the top charming. And, as always, I look so forward to your videos. I love your knowledge of flowers and are willing to share that with us. I love “basket boy” and the flowers just finalized it for me - so so cute! Thank you Laura!
Love the basket boy an your arrangement. Perfect for being close to a chicken coupe. Will be even more whimsical when the wisteria blooms then put on leaves. ❤
Those cute girls and cute kitties keeping you company. Sweet little helpers and garden clean up, love this video.❤❤❤❤
How nice it must be; to be able to talk with your husband about plants and planning.
For me it’s a one woman band, I haven’t that shared love with my husband for plants and planning.
I would love to be able to collaborate with my husband about this stuff.
He’s just not into it.
But I am grateful he helps with the heavy stuff.
Also, it’s going to be so awesome when your children get alittle older.
Benjamin is already such a great help. I noticed he seems a lot like his dad, in that he seems to enjoy building and planning. And your daughter is so much like you.
God is good
So sad to see the plank walkway gone. It was so whimsical and good to locate where you were in the garden. Looking forward to what’s next.
Looks great, I just love when the kids come out to help. My grandkids still come out and help me and I love every minute with them.
The chicken coop area looks great!! Your helpers did a great job of cleaning up around the chicken coop.😊 I am ready to see more blooms and color.😊
You could give a little more height to the basket boy statue by placing it on a concrete pedestal. I love the flowers you planted in the basket. So sweet!
Loved watching the next generation of gardeners ❤
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️
The birch looks much better. I knew you were thinking of the galloway urn for that spot! 😊 looking great all nice and tidy!
A sweet little bench under the arbor instead of a urn or statue.....to sit on and watch the chickens ❤
Thank you for removing those two limbs from the tree by the chicken coop. Theywere so much lower than the other branches that the tree was annoying to look at. Love the fence that Benjamin built. So wonderful watching Benjamin and Samantha helping take up the planks. They are learning early to love gardening. I find myself smiling from ear to ear watching the interactions between your family members. You are so sweet to each other and appreciative. Praying that God continues to bless you and your vlog on RUclips.
Agree, the removal of the lower branches on the tree looks great and the flowers are beautiful. Love to see the kids help you in the garden.
"Baby, you're doing it." So sweet reminds me of the movie "Hook," " You're doing it, Peter." I always say that to my brother
Your kids are terrific helpers! They are learning so much from you and Aaron. ❤ I love the little boy statue, could you maybe place it on a pedestal for extra height?
Laura, what month will your Zephrin roses bloom? I’m growing one for the first time and am hoping it will be in full display on June 22 the day of my daughter’s wedding.
