Does anyone else first look at how many minutes long the video is?? 😆 I did and got so excited when I saw it was a long one. Yeah! Going to need more coffee. Great way to start the day. Thanks Laura and Aaron! And good to see a sweetie kitty right at the beginning.
Based on the last few vlogs, I think Laura has made her mind up about the maple 🍁 tree but doesn’t have the ❤️ to put it out in the universe. I’m with her on just take it out while everything is just dirt and get a size or two smaller. I’ve really embraced the “if it doesn’t make you happy, take it out and replace with what you want” philosophy. Life is too short to be looking at something that doesn’t make your heart sing. Everything looks beautiful Laura & Arron! 🌸🌺🍁🌹🌻🌤💦🪴🌲🌳🐈
@@conniesanrn2730 this makes sense. But if it’s so altered (broken) from what she believed she purchased, then I would hope they replace it without making her wait.
I agree completely. I normally like to give plants a chance to heal up but in this case I'd have it replaced while the area is still under construction and dusty. It's meant to be a showcase tree so even if it heals up the shape will be wonky. Sometimes you just have to pull the bandaid off quickly.
@@gardengirl207 i think they need to wait for spring to replace it because it has certain period of time in the year that they can transplant such mature trees
Love the garden tours! And how appropriate to see Russell at the start 😂. You have such a wonderful space, Laura and I’m loving following your work and the changes over the seasons. Hope your mother’s recovery is going well and looking forward to the Q&A with her. Have a wonderful day.
The Hartley is so beautiful.....but the one place of yours I have loved the most since first time I saw it years ago is the chimney and brick area. It is so peaceful. I'd have my morning coffee there everyday in spring and fall.
I remember starting my garden with such passion!!! Sure wish I was younger and starting it now with Laura’s knowledge!!! Ive learned so much! My garden is at the point that everything has to be moved or replaced since the trees now shade it. The problem is I’m much older and broken now 😂 This channel gave me back my passion and I’m incredibly grateful for that! Oh, and it wouldn’t be a great video with Russell 🐱🐱
Thank you, Laura and Aaron, for greeting us with the August Garden Tour. You made my day - now off to my garden which is becoming more and more beautiful because of you!
Loved that annual patch of the purple white and potato vine. And... there was a precious little orange furry flower that followed you all over Laura! Russell IS a treasure. Enjoy your day. You make ours beautiful every day. xo
We built a pergola and then hung swings and bars on it for the kids. When the kids no longer use it, you just take the swings down and you still have something beautiful. I love the plectransus and queen tut without the flowers. It has a beautiful structure and drape and looks more formal to match the entry of the Hartley.
Oh a one hour garden tour!! Yes!! Today my mom would have turned 85, but sadly passed away (in England) 10 years ago. So today, everything I do is in her memory! I went shopping to her favorite store, Aldi! Then came home and put my feet up with a cup of hot tea and a snickers bar (she LOVED them), and watched your garden tour! She loved to garden, and was very successful with most everything she grew. In her later years, as health declined, it became a frustration. I’ve taken up her love for plants and flowers, learning a lot from you Laura, about growing plants in America and trying to make my garden in Virginia, pretty like yours! Thank you for all you do to make our landscapes pretty, may God continue to bless you for your efforts!
I love this show. I learned so much about gardening. Unfortunately I can't afford to buy any of the plants so I live through Laura's interpretation each morning of her card pretending it's my virtual garden. When I win the lotto I'm buying all flowers and have a huge garden.!
I'd be happy to share some of my seeds, if you'd like. I started my garden 25 years ago then we decided to tear it all out and rehome all of the plants to replace and renovate our property! Saved seeds and started buying plants at the end of each month to start replanting this fall. I don't recommend doing it this way, it was heartbreaking!
Could you find someone who needs to thin out their plants? We paid about $2.00 each for 3 rubekia (black eyed Susan’s) and they have spread like crazy!! We’ve thinned, but you’d never know it! My Iris are always needing to be thinned as well. Best of luck to you!!
Good morning Laura and Aaron! Love, love, love this video. Relaxing and beautiful. Russell really loves you guys, he wants to be where you are. So sweet. Oh my you guys have such an amazing future before you. Kids to raise, many, many projects and devoted gardeners [and virtual gardeners) loving to see it all. May God bless all your endeavors. Hugs from N.C..❤️🙏
Am so impressed with … well your hardworking lifestyle, the beauty you cultivate, and the apple of your eye - is behind the camera. That is apparently clear. He possesses a keen eye for success, putting you in motion is a sight to be shown. And, every speck is GORGEOUSLY designed, royally maintained. You, yourself are very classy classic, TRUE BEAUTY, down to earth, hard working. BLESSING: YOUR LIGHT WITHIN, THE LOVE YOU KNOW, YOUR MOTHERHOOD AND MARRIAGE. Thank you for shinning & sharing it. You’re good at what you do. CLS
I love all the updates you're making to your property! Feels more like your aesthetic. I might be the only one, but I'd like to see a video on how they put in a stacked stone wall. I live in New England where we have very old stacked stone walls, but I'm wondering if modern stone walls have any adhesive or other modern tricks.
I LOVE the fluffy boxwoods & am letting mine exhibit their natural forms because of seeing how lovely yours look when fluffy. The formation of the hedge itself is enough uniformity for me, and the softness of the natural fluffy form is so pleasant.
Really enjoyed the garden tour! Made notes for things to add to my garden next year. I am in zone 6B Ontario,Canada and today it is 84°F with 80% humidity, it is an indoor project day. You walk outside to a sauna and thankful for the rain last night no need to water today! Happy Gardening everyone! Update 85° 92% humidity
Russell is a super star! love the intro! Just for fun. Next garden tour should be Russell walking around the garden with Laura's voice over it? lol! I see Aaron's Flag is up.👍 Scorch plants or not still beautiful!..💜💜 Looking forward to your next projects in the new property in the near future! Thank you for the Garden tour hope you all have an amazing weekend.
I am so jealous of your unspeakably beautiful gardens!!! I am 72 and have gardened since I was 18, learning much of what I know from my wonderful dad. I spent probably 1/4th of my years with him in the gardens...both vegetable and flower. I love your videos...thank you so much for making them for us.
Hey Laura, do you keep a list of your perfect blends? I would love to see a list of some of your “perfect blends”. I think it would be a great ideas 💡 list for newbie gardeners.
Your gardens are beautiful, thank you for all your efforts to share them! I have my morning coffee, in my easy chair, watching with you. Tell your mom hi, hope her bones are healing fast.
Love watching how your garden has grown, my garden has changed because of moving a few times the past 2 moving from California to Arkansas - big change in gardening. I found your channel several years ago when my Mother passed away and you have helped me in so many ways. I was always an indoor plant person; you have taught me how to go from indoor to out and container to ground. I love seeing what you have planted and think can that plant work in my space. Thank you for your sharing your love of gardening and what you learn each season.
I've been watching you for YEARS, Laura. Safe to say you are one of my favorite personalities on youtube. The wealth of knowledge through your successes and whoops is priceless. And the fact you keep it on gardening and gardening only has been an escape and my guilty pleasure through the years. Your garden tours are my favorite! You guys work so hard for your viewers and we appreciate it. May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family. Clarkston, Wa.
Great tour! Thanks for the update🙂. Seating out in the south garden would be lovely. Just to walk out there and then find a lovely bench or set of chairs to sit and enjoy the beauty and the birdsong❤️👍
Great tour. In that heat I’m surprised anything is doing well. CONGRATULATIONS TO Monica on her New House. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us. Loved it.💯💯💯🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
This year is my first year of really getting into gardening and you’re such an inspiration 👏🏼 I just love all the videos and how well you explain things. Thank you for all the videos! I learn something new every time!
one time in our area, a farmer took a spot of his land and plowed it and planted nothing but sunflowers. it was beautiful! maybe you can do that next year in that spot or even do a mix of sunflowers and lavenders. Oh, that would be pretty. Just a thought. Everything looks beautiful! Hard work is paying off. God Bless!
That Bald Cypress had the most brilliant green color. But whenever you start your videos my eye goes to the Weeping Willow. Just heavenly gorgeous. I imagine them in heaven. Hope nothing ever happens to it. Thx for being there ❤️
Good morning Laura and everyone around the world 🌎 Laura, loved the tour of your garden this morning!! I’m so jealous!! Love it when you show the good with the bad, it really helps alot Between our deer here and our heat and humidity here in NC, it’s so hard to keep things thriving. Our humidity yesterday was at 95%, just awful!! The deer 🦌 are another big issue!! They eat everything I try to plant but thank goodness it’s only in my front yard. Back yard is fenced in. Anyway everyone have a wonderful weekend!!
I love the sound of your chickens.😄I was actually outside painting the frame of our coop watching your video and noticed them. Your garden so inspires me. Absolutely beautiful.
Hi Laura. Just so you know. In Holland the Dutch growers use silver straight wire to support hyacinth and other plants that droop. They pop them through the centre of the plant so you can't see them. Magic. They look like soldiers on parade. Love your garden. Thank you for giving me so much inspiration and purpose. Xx
Oh Laura I loved planting flowers, shrubs, etc before but you have made me an addict & my husband cringes when we go somewhere there are plants & flowers for sale! Lol 😆😁😊🌞😎❤️🥰🌺🌷🌳🌿
Would love a snapshot of Aaron’s face every time Laura opens with “And I had an idea…”😆 You’re gardens are truly beautiful though, and you guys inspired me to get stuck in instead of waiting for everything to be ‘ready’. So thank you for helping me to fill my own cup, Post partum me really needed it.
I really love your monthly tours cuz you can really see what to plant when where size maturity experiences...it's really helpful. All your videos are. Your varieties colors and placements have completely evolved my taste. Thank you guys for giving so much to all us that love to learn. Your passion connected to your knowledge is what drew me in.
Those pots! By the front of the house. Oh my goodness. The color selection you choose is so perfect. I adore them. Great job Laura! Once again you shine when many others would wither.
It’s such a balm to my soul to hear you say, “I don’t know what happened here” when something doesn’t go well! It makes me feel better about myself! Question: does your new property go into the trees and brush or does it stop there?
I'd just like to say: as a MUCH less experienced gardener, I am so happy to hear that someone with as much knowledge and experience as you also sometimes has problems with mites/other bugs! I really thoroughly enjoy seeing all of your different garden spaces and I take lots of inspiration from you! Thank y'all for these videos!🌱🌼🌺🌹
I love watching these garden tours. They always give me ideas of what I could/may do in my own space and just seeing how some of these plants act over the season...
I am constantly struck by the breath and scope of your gardens. Allows me to approach my garden with enthusiasm, keeping in mind the human level of the work, in comparison to what you do. And, your plant suggestion are golden. Have used your advice on many occasions for plant choice and have almost always been pleased. The bubblegum petunia is a special plant that is a growth phenomenon. Thanks for the advice.
The rogue watermelon is too funny! It will probably be the best tasting watermelon too. 😄 Also....I need to quit passing up the Russian sage at my garden center! Its so pretty tucked behind the boxwoods. Definitely adding to my landscape next year.
I just love how much your garden has evolved over the years. It's more and more beautiful as time goes by. Thank you so much for sharing with us. You inspire me all the time and I am grateful for you and all your hard work
The urns with the vista and regular supertunia - one is wild and the other side is tame and compact. Who else thinks that’s Laura and Aaron respectively? The super passionate and the composed. Apropos :)
I would love to see an update on the raised beds you planted behind the barn a couple of years ago. You had a beautiful espallia fruit tree in one of them and berries.
Always so excited to see a tour. I appreciate you guys so much. It's incredible to see everything your doing. So happy. TY so much. Just amazing job how much you've done.
It’s funny you brought up a new small gazebo while Aaron is working behind the camera. Like he’s gonna argue on video. 😂🤣😂🤣❤️ I love the idea! And it should be white to match. The original did not. Thanks for the tour.
Does anyone else first look at how many minutes long the video is?? 😆 I did and got so excited when I saw it was a long one. Yeah! Going to need more coffee. Great way to start the day. Thanks Laura and Aaron! And good to see a sweetie kitty right at the beginning.
Yup!!The longer the better😄
It "is" the first thing I do. Truly.
I always check.the longer the better.
Me to:-)
Me too
These garden tours never get old! It's like a walk in paradise with a fairy garden named Laura. ❤❤❤
Really?
Based on the last few vlogs, I think Laura has made her mind up about the maple 🍁 tree but doesn’t have the ❤️ to put it out in the universe. I’m with her on just take it out while everything is just dirt and get a size or two smaller.

Everything looks beautiful Laura & Arron! 🌸🌺🍁🌹🌻🌤💦🪴🌲🌳🐈
Maples are fast enough, might as well replace it with a 2-3” caliper tree that is much more easy to move and will get going quickly!
Since the business guarantees it for 1 year she might have to wait until its obviously dead before replacing. I'm sure it wasnt a cheap purchase
@@conniesanrn2730 this makes sense. But if it’s so altered (broken) from what she believed she purchased, then I would hope they replace it without making her wait.
I agree completely. I normally like to give plants a chance to heal up but in this case I'd have it replaced while the area is still under construction and dusty.

I just can't believe how Russell follows you everywhere. He's so sweet and obviously loves you so much.

The Hartley is so beautiful.....but the one place of yours I have loved the most since first time I saw it years ago is the chimney and brick area. It is so peaceful. I'd have my morning coffee there everyday in spring and fall.
I was thinking the same thing. I also thought how nice it would be to be Laura’s friend and sit down and chat there for a bit. 🌸
Me too ! That whole area 💙 so cozy and charming !
Me too I love that area. Also to see there on a cooler night with a fire and drinks and roast marshmallows with the kids.
I love the chicken coop area!🥰
Totally agree. The secret place.
I remember starting my garden with such passion!!! Sure wish I was younger and starting it now with Laura’s knowledge!!! Ive learned so much!
My garden is at the point that everything has to be moved or replaced since the trees now shade it. The problem is I’m much older and broken now 😂 This channel gave me back my passion and I’m incredibly grateful for that!
Oh, and it wouldn’t be a great video with Russell 🐱🐱
I can relate to the getting older. I sit and dream what I want to do, get up to do it and my body says no way. LOL
Watching this again, 8 months later at the end of April 2023, I'm SOOO excited for summer in your garden and mine 💚🌱
YYYEEESSSS!!! Saw this and quickly grabbed my coffee. Thank you Laura and Aaron! Your gardens are beautiful!
What Laura says is a rough area, many people would love for their garden to look like that 😀. The garden is amazing 👏
Rough is rough
Thank you, Laura and Aaron, for greeting us with the August Garden Tour. You made my day - now off to my garden which is becoming more and more beautiful because of you!

Loved that annual patch of the purple white and potato vine. And... there was a precious little orange furry flower that followed you all over Laura! Russell IS a treasure. Enjoy your day. You make ours beautiful every day. xo
The vivid cor blocking certainly worked, nice contrast.

Laura- Our Proven Winner! Thanks for sharing. Love watching you be you❤
We built a pergola and then hung swings and bars on it for the kids. When the kids no longer use it, you just take the swings down and you still have something beautiful. I love the plectransus and queen tut without the flowers. It has a beautiful structure and drape and looks more formal to match the entry of the Hartley.
That is SUCH a great idea!
your garden is one of the most beautiful gardens
WOW loving the update on the gardens. Making notes on plant ideas and plant combinations - heading out to the nursery right now!
Wish I had a nursery that I could go get plants this time of year all I have is a Lowe’s’ and Manards and walmart
@@cherylramey6188 I feel your pain
My main note is add gaura to my centerpiece list! Just loose in the wind! Love it

Hello Laura and Aaron
Such a pleasure to watch your progress. Thank you💞
I agree!! I can’t live without my touch sensor faucet!!
Russell is a super star! love the intro! Just for fun. Next garden tour should be Russell walking around the garden with Laura's voice over it? lol! I see Aaron's Flag is up.👍 Scorch plants or not still beautiful!..💜💜 Looking forward to your next projects in the new property in the near future! Thank you for the Garden tour hope you all have an amazing weekend.

Russel's intro--soooo cute! Such a sweetie. Love how he's your shadow during every garden tour. ❤
Hey Laura, do you keep a list of your perfect blends? I would love to see a list of some of your “perfect blends”. I think it would be a great ideas 💡 list for newbie gardeners.
Your gardens are beautiful, thank you for all your efforts to share them! I have my morning coffee, in my easy chair, watching with you. Tell your mom hi, hope her bones are healing fast.
Thank you from all of us, for taking the extra effort to add clips from previous videos. It really adds and we appreciate it ☺️
It is a true delight to spend my early morning 🌄 touring your estate gardens with you.
It’s not a Garden Answer video without a bit of Russell wandering around in the background. Love the Tour videos so much.
Laura you guys work soo soo soo hard this year and are still able to treat us with an hour-long Garden Tour. Thanks so much!!
Everything is gorgeous, but that annual bed with the blocks of vibrant color. Spectacular! 💜
I’m really impressed with your comment,if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?

Awesome Awesome video!!!!
I love your garden tours there the best.
Please keep sharing your knowledge and experience with us 👍👏👌🥰
57 minutes, yes please 😍
When you talked about saving the broken hydrangeas, I was like, I was there then! So much growth since then and not just the plants! 💚
Everything is just beautiful.the amount of work and love you put into gardening is apparent. I love your tours.
one time in our area, a farmer took a spot of his land and plowed it and planted nothing but sunflowers. it was beautiful! maybe you can do that next year in that spot or even do a mix of sunflowers and lavenders. Oh, that would be pretty. Just a thought. Everything looks beautiful! Hard work is paying off. God Bless!
Good evening GA Fam☺️🇵🇭I am so excited for tonights Video🤸
Laura the stone pathway is the icing on the cake for the South garden, gorgeous stone!🍰🍰🍰🍰
You guys do such an amazing job it’s so heavenly your yard. 👍😇
That Bald Cypress had the most brilliant green color. But whenever you start your videos my eye goes to the Weeping Willow. Just heavenly gorgeous. I imagine them in heaven. Hope nothing ever happens to it. Thx for being there ❤️
Laura I love your excitement it’s encouraging and incentive to keep planting!
Good morning Laura and everyone around the world 🌎 Laura, loved the tour of your garden this morning!! I’m so jealous!!

Good morning, Laura ☕️ I love garden tours! I’ll have to watch half now and half when I get home from work.
This is an amazing garden. So beautiful and you can tell a lot of work goes into maintaining it. Love your garden videos.

Good Morning! 🌞🌻 Love the update! Good thing you found that water issue! Those chickens want to take over the tour! 😍🌸🌼🌺💚🌿
Everything always looks beautiful. I always enjoy seeing your garden but, most of all I enjoy seeing Russell following you around all the time.
I love your garden tours, the longer the better. It is such a great way to start my day. Thank you Laura & Aaron!
I’m really impressed with your comment,if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from
Laura, your garden is more beautiful than ever. I now realize why you wanted to start over with your own plants!! Great job girl!!!!
I’ve certainly enjoyed having my coffee with all of you this morning! ❤️ The tour was beautiful!!
Oh Laura I loved planting flowers, shrubs, etc before but you have made me an addict & my husband cringes when we go somewhere there are plants & flowers for sale! Lol 😆😁😊🌞😎❤️🥰🌺🌷🌳🌿
Thank you for showing both your wins and struggles in the garden! It’s encouraging to know we’re not alone.
Beth Chatto said use the right plant for the right place. Good advice for all us gardeners.
Would love a snapshot of Aaron’s face every time Laura opens with “And I had an idea…”😆
You’re gardens are truly beautiful though, and you guys inspired me to get stuck in instead of waiting for everything to be ‘ready’. So thank you for helping me to fill my own cup, Post partum me really needed it.

Fabulous tour - thanks Laura & Aaron. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 from 🇨🇦
thank you Laura, your optomistic, happy attitude is truly a pleasure. and always informative
Russell always makes an appearance in just about every scene! Too funny 😁. I adore your garden and the energy it takes to keep up with all of it!
Coffee & notebook ready - love your tours! Thank you!
Coreopsis and the Daylillies sounds like a garden-folk band. 😅👌🏻
It’s such a balm to my soul to hear you say, “I don’t know what happened here” when something doesn’t go well! It makes me feel better about myself!
Question: does your new property go into the trees and brush or does it stop there?

I love watching these garden tours. They always give me ideas of what I could/may do in my own space and just seeing how some of these plants act over the season...
I’m really impressed with your comment,if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from
I am constantly struck by the breath and scope of your gardens. Allows me to approach my garden with enthusiasm, keeping in mind the human level of the work, in comparison to what you do. And, your plant suggestion are golden. Have used your advice on many occasions for plant choice and have almost always been pleased. The bubblegum petunia is a special plant that is a growth phenomenon. Thanks for the advice.
The rogue watermelon is too funny! It will probably be the best tasting watermelon too. 😄 Also....I need to quit passing up the Russian sage at my garden center! Its so pretty tucked behind the boxwoods. Definitely adding to my landscape next year.
My favorite area is the formal garden Laura. Everything is beautiful..
I just love how much your garden has evolved over the years. It's more and more beautiful as time goes by. Thank you so much for sharing with us. You inspire me all the time and I am grateful for you and all your hard work
Red maples grow as natives here in coastal NC. They are usually found along creek beds. So they LOVE wet feet.
Good morning from Tennessee! Wonderful tour, Laura.
Wowzers that Tiger eye sumac, it really took off this year. Can't wait to see it in Fall.
That Supreme Cantaloupe echinacea really floats my boat! Just incredibly beautiful!
The urns with the vista and regular supertunia - one is wild and the other side is tame and compact. Who else thinks that’s Laura and Aaron respectively? The super passionate and the composed. Apropos :)
I would love to see an update on the raised beds you planted behind the barn a couple of years ago. You had a beautiful espallia fruit tree in one of them and berries.
I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that they moved the espallier tree.
It's still back there :) you can seen it in the background of a video she did a few months ago (maybe 2 or 3).
Oh my goodness, the view of the Hartley from the fireplace 😍
I love your garden tours. They give good ideas for plants in my own garden. Thank you for all your sharing.
Thank you for a fantastic tour. Your gardens reflect your passion. Loved going on the tour. Best wishes!

Does anyone else think it’s like playing FarmVille in real life with way better product to plant. What a dream come true. Thanks for sharing Laura!
It’s funny you brought up a new small gazebo while Aaron is working behind the camera. Like he’s gonna argue on video. 😂🤣😂🤣❤️ I love the idea! And it should be white to match. The original did not. Thanks for the tour.
Your videos are wonderful to start the day with my morning coffee! Have a blessed day everyone!!!
@Barbara Carlson ~ Thank you! A Blessed day to you also!
