    These videos where Laura is all over the property doing a lot of different projects are some of my favorites. We get a tour without getting a tour, if that makes sense. What an amazing childhood Benjamin and Samantha are living. It's full of the love of family, flowers, playing, cats, chickens, and sunshine!

      Hi Laura. I think curving the edge of the rock wall will help soften that area. You have a number of right angles there and a curve would help naturalise that corner.

    The brick patio area is coming out so beautiful!
    I think that continuing the rock wall and adding material and plants would definitely hide the stuff you want to hide easily. What an awesome progress over the years. We always look forward to what you offer us viewers 💕

      Re: Purpose of the Brick Patio ~ ? ~ Is the patio going to be a space for Entertaining ? ~!~ Garden area Or a Patio?
      The entire property is beautiful... with a Zillion ~ shrubs / flowers / trees *But...what is the brick patio going to be used for? What about a 'Covered' area?
      What about a BBQ - pizza oven - counter - kitchen area - small fridge ~ Dining table (off to the side) and more Covered Seating. (are the bugs bad? Screened-in area?)
      (Is there enough room for 20 people in that area.. ? Is the Patio area getting a bit crowded? ) ~ You can always Add more 'stuff' later.
      A Covered Patio can be anything from a retractable awning to a pergola, shade cloth or a fixed roof.
      (Umbrellas aren't enough for many people to sit under all together......and can easily blow over in your wild wind)
      What do you really Need in the center?
      Do you Need another planter or a fountain in the Center? Will that be a waste of entertaining space? Something Removable in the Center for larger gatherings?
      What about future....Birthday parties / holidays / graduations / weddings? (area for the kids to play / games to play / people to gather)
      Somewhere to put out food / to be able to sit / eat and get out of the sun and bugs.
      Maybe there are 'plans' for another area for Family parties / gatherings ~ IDK.
      I agree...Continuing the rock wall / Awesome progress in such a short time / What all of us can only Dream of......

    Beautiful Laura! I think you should put beautiful concrete containers on pedestals in each corner of the swoops and put the rock wall all the way along at same height to provide neat and tidy barrier against the brick walkway. Boxwood hedge on one side, rock wall acting as retaining wall on other. Can still do plantings to cover the equipment. It is gonna be gorgeous whatever you decide! 🇨🇦❤

    I've been backtracking and watching garden tour videos starting when your first moved into the house. What an amazing transformation over the years combining great elements of what was already in place and changing or adding others for your specific style. And what a great style it is. Your aesthetic sense is very beautiful. This latest brick patio project is just one more in a long line of projects that you've done that add so much beauty to your home and gardens. Don't you just love seeing it all come together and the new plantings mature over the years! Pretty awesome to be along for the ride.

What has kept me going to keep going is my Garden thanks to your happy motivating videos. I have done seeds this year and happy to say,they are looking great.

    The Brick Patio Update Tour - A feature to add to the flowerbed area of the joining paths and behind the brick wall would be a 3 arm lighting fixture with hanging lights. They would add drama and great lighting to the entrance at night. The sight line would be just to the right of the trellis keeping symmetry to the area. It could be put on a pad, pedestal etc... if height is needed. It could also add additional electrical plugs to the area. I am not a gardener but do enjoy watching your shows as I love design of all kinds.

    I think some tall thin yew cones would set the brick patio off beautifully, it would give a very European look and be a different look from the rest of the property. I believe the stone pots may be too much hard scape in that area with a rock wall, brick patio, stone fountain, and any benches or chairs on the patio.

    There are so many comments I doubt this will get seen, but at 4:18 you talked about masking those utilities, and I had an idea.
    I think it would be really cool to continue the rock wall, and incorporate it seamlessly into the border of small koi pond in that corner spot, as a retaining wall, and using the "water run" where the water trickles down as a way to "mask" the utility boxes. The boxes still need to be accessed but you could use some hallow plastic rocks or lightweight fake-hollow rocks to "cover" them and make them "look" incorporated, and then to the immediate left have a higher elevation rock-scape where the water originates before falling into tiny waterfalls into the pond. Your rock wall to the right would continue toward the patio and then become part of the "Wall" for the small koi pond. That way it becomes a peaceful water feature every time you get home, but the goldfish/koi aren't so far away that you forget to feed them :).
    I'm not sure if anything I described makes sense. But sort of like a "mini" version of the homepage picture of this company? But the utility boxes are hidden/camoflauged under fake-hallow-stones about where the purple bush on the left is? petersonslandscape.com/koi-pond/
    As for size, something modest like this almost, but with a natural "run" of water/waterfalls? www.pinterest.com/pin/49610033378571680/
    It would be so cute =)

    New patio is gorgeous. I was watching her pot up the planters and said oh no, Laura, not the geraniums. The planters look gorgeous.

    My morning routine includes coffee, puppy snuggles and the newest Garden Answer video. I find myself sitting and smiling watching your kiddos and cats playing in the background. I love learning about new plants and landscaping, combinations in containers and craft projects. I wish you could come run a drip system at my place! Thanks for helping me start my days ❤

    What a busy fun day! Best kind of days for sure. Your babies are precious.💕 Love the pot color choices. That brick patio is going to be fabulous. I like the idea of the stone wall continuing on. It's what my eye wanted when you where talking about it anyway. But I'm sure whatever you all decide will fit wonderfully. Yes plant that arbor up soon! Thanks for sharing your day with us. 🌺👩‍🌾🌷💜

    Such a fun video! I would imagine y’all get a bit of criticism for some of your purchases or the amount of money needed for the type of business your in, but what I see is a lot of repurposing, purchases that will grow your channel, make work less taxing on your bodies, planning for the future and spending time with family. I admire y’all. P.S. Samantha Grace reminds me so much of Susan. 🌸🥰🌸

    Absolutely delighted to see the patio area come together.Definatley carry on the rock wall straight and slightly higher it so it will mask the boxes. Love it all. Well done

    Okay I'm gonna have to put my foot down 😉 and say NO to the roses on the arbor idea! Remember? The roses along the narrow pathway to the house was a hassle when carrying groceries - AND one of the reasons you wanted a wider open path. Roses on that arbor will defeat that! I'm just sayin'! We want a hassle free, grocery hauling corridor for you and your lovely family. 😅😍🥰🤗

      Second that & have never seen the video. The first thing thought of how tight that arbor will be coming in with groceries & the kids be tight unless get wider arbor. The roses will be like the others in vegetable garden nobody can honestly tame roses growing on arbors. Continuing the beautiful stones would be lovely instead of more boxwoods. In the end your decision. Beautiful family. Thanks for sharing.

    We drive by the Big Tex Trailer manufacturing plant in Wills Point, Texas every weekend on our way to our country house. Enjoy your new trailer. I’m sure you’ll enjoy having it. Aaron did a great job securing the boxwoods. I love seeing the kids helping around your property.
