I’m sure it’s a real pain filming while trying to enjoy this glorious trip, but thank you so much! Even getting wet for us to see the hidden gardens. Aaron, thank you, too! Y’all make a great team. 🌸🌼💚
Well said. Completely agree with your words and sentiment.
I agree we are so so lucky to be able to see all of this beauty! Forever grateful 😊❤
I think the rain made that "secret" garden even more beautiful and magical!
You’re a trooper Laura! Getting drenched so you could show us the secret garden, thank you!
Laura, I loved walking in the rain with you! When I was a kid being outside in the rain was absolutely magical! Thanks for taking us along. ~Margie🌧😊⛲
Not even the rain will stop Laura from strolling through a beautiful garden. I would have been right there with you! Such a magical space thank you for braving the rain and taking us with you. Perfect start to my day❣️
The garden was beautiful in the rain!
And I love that everyone has to dress formally after 6. That kind of old school fancy stuff has such an air of romance.
the garden after a summer rain is my favorite time. the water droplets on all the leaves are so magical. It looks like glitter all over the garden. 💚💚
I love those vibrant yellow flowers 😍😍
I can just imagine how fresh and fragrant the secret garden was in this rain. Thanks for taking us along on a lovely, rainy stroll ☔🥰
Oh man I was thinking the same thing!!! … sigh..🌸🌸🌸
I feel like I walked into a Monet painting in the secret garden... Beautiful colors...
Looking fab Aaron !.. So glad to see you two having such a fun time.
ANOTHER TOUR!?! Have we all died and gone to Gardener’s Heaven?! Thank you Laura and Aaron!
Thank you so much for going the extra (moist) mile so we could enjoy this experience with you. This is probably the closest most of us will come to this beautiful island, but that's ok. We can draw inspiration to plant our own beauty to share with others.
Oh my goodness, Laura, I'm savoring each and every one of your tours.
Can we get you to go on more botanical vacations?💚
Greetings from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸
Happy Gardening Everyone 👩🌾 👍 💓
What a trooper you are Laura to do the video in the rain! Yay on You! Beautiful Secret Garden! I didn't realize Aaron still had hair, as we always see him in a cap. What a handsome young man! You two are such a beautiful couple! Thank you both so much for the wonderful Mackinac Island Garden Show Videos. I have enjoyed them thoroughly! Safe Travels Home. xo
My niece and I were there and it was so much more than expected. Thank you for taking the time to take pictures, I felt so bad acting like a groupie🤷♀️but you guys along with Jenny and Jerry were so gracious and I appreciate it. However, my niece and I are at the end of this video and you can plainly see we were trying to get the nerve up to ask Jack for a pic (which was successful later;-) and my niece said, “Laura is heading toward Jack!” You can see me almost running away😹 with all that being said,I do have a question. The Little Quick Fire Proven Winners gave us, should I add the starter fertilizer when planting? Thanks for all you and Aaron do. Continued prayers for your sweet momma💕
12:48 I Love that pathway with the adorable bench! It really does look like a secret garden 😍
Fell in love with it too!
@@alexandravladmets8206 it was so pretty!
My heart went nostalgic coz that’s where “Somewhere in Time” was filmed. Beautiful place. Thank you Laura and Aaron for the free tour❤️.
My favorite movie of all time!
I was thinking the same thing
I was just telling my sisters that we should make a trip to Mackinac Island and one of them said that was where her favourite movie was shot ..Somewhere in Time. It was filmed in 1980 42 years ago. Now I have to watch it.
I was thinking about that movie also. The music was swirling in my mind. I loved the time Laura and Aaron spent with us. So appreciative….❤️
That is one of my favorite movies - Christopher Reeves, Jane Seymour! 💞
You are so true and real !!! That is what I love about you and Aaron . You are just like the rest of us. Thank you for weathering the rain to show us the beautiful secret gardens.
I imagin we all took something away from these island videos to incorporate into our own gardens. Me? I'm going to up my game with ground covers, and the use of flagstone for pathways and sitting areas. I especially liked the flagstone around the fountain with it not being placed close together. Thank you SO much for all you have shared with us these last few days!
I love it when you take us along on this trip. I'm sure it makes it harder for you to enjoy some of it because of the filming. We do appreciate it. This has been on my bucket list for about 15 years and I still haven't made it. I think I might have waited too long and gotten too old to maneuver the island. Thanks again for the tour of the secret garden. It was beautiful.
Enjoy this trip with Aaron thanks 😀😀😀
Oh my goodness-that secret garden is exquisite! You’ve mentioned putting a secret garden in and I think it would be wonderful.
Good morning Laura and Aaron! Thanks for taking us along! Its so gorgeous over there! Such a fairytale garden, an absolute dream! I savored every moment....such beauty, color and design! I am dreaming with my eyes open early in the morning! The rain gave the garden a mistery of sort, Thank you so much for filming in the rain, sorry you got soaked but for me was magical! You guys look great! Love the suit Aaron! Laura that green looke gorgeous on you. Next time put your drink down before clapping😉😅 🤗💗💜💚💜💗🤗🌺🌸🌻💐
Such a sweet comment! And perfectly said! 🧡❤️💜💙💚
Yes , I agree. Aaron did look very spiffy in his suit. the little hidden pockets are a wonderful thing. I wish i could have a space like this.
@@GardenHappy thank you! It means a lot to me since English is not my native language.🤗
@@lastchancehomestead5116 me too!🤗
Way to take one for the team, Laura! (Can’t get wetter than wet 🙂) I really love hidden spaces in the garden…lots of inspiration for the ones you’re planning!
So so so nice of you to bring us along for that lovely tour and part of the cocktail party!! I wanted to go so badly this year but it just wasn’t in the budget…so I live through you vicariously. Thank you so much Laura & Aaron! (You shine up pretty nice Mr!!). Glad you had a good time! You two deserve it! 😊♥️
Where is a great place to stay there, other than this fancy schmancy place? I looked a little but everything I saw was booked up for next summer.
Thank you for touring in the rain! The spilled drink is totally something I would do. I appreciate that you show how relatable and real you are! 💜 💜 💜
Hi, Emma! Have not stopped praying for you so I am glad you posted a comment. God bless!
Well, this was exciting! Touring the gardens in the rain.🥰 Thanks, Laura, this was a treat! Aaron! 😍 You’re so dapper!
Honestly Laura, you bring so much beautiful and joy to our lives. Taking the time away from all that beauty to share with us is a blessing. Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you Laura for always thinking to share with us, rain and all! Loved the secret garden!!! Wowza, Aaron looked so nice dressed up and would have loved to see you both before you spilled your drink, lol! We love ya ‘Grace’!!! Take us on a carriage ride if you can?!!! Above all, have a super nice time!!!
Laura you really took one for the team today!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!
The super tall yellow flowered plant is Rudbeckia 'Autumn Sun' (also sometimes called 'Herbstonne' I think). It's an herbaceous perennial which grows to over six feet tall from the ground each year. Another tall Rudbeckia is 'Rudbeckia Maxima'. Both great plants.
Rudbeckia laciniata?
@@giottoandolfatto I've seen it listed as both laciniata and nitida. Same plant.
Correct! You have a good eye. I created and designed the secret garden, so I would know 😂
@@andrewbutterfield7789 Aha! Beautiful, beautiful garden. I've seen a picture of the river of muscari in bloom. Wow!
Oh my goodness, you had me cracking up all through this video. From the running through raindrops all the way to spilling your drink down your shirt. I just kept thinking, “oh, poor Laura” Looks like a lovely time despite it all! Thanks for sharing it with us!
It couldn't have been more perfect! Walking around a secret garden in the rain Is absolutely magical 🌟 to me 🌧
You guys look so nice all dressed up! Love the raining garden tour!! I feel like I am there with you!
Absolutely love this series from the island. Full of beauty, information & inspiration. Thanks so very much for sharing it with us.
Toward the end..."Oh, hang on. What is this?" I was so excited to see the next surprise. Laura , thank you for this delightful adventure. I actually got goosebumps when you turned the corner for the reveal of the gorgeous view.
I think this may be one of my favorite videos you've ever made! I was moved to tears at the view of the secret garden and kept laughing at all of your shenanigans. Lol! Just absolutely loved it, Laura!
Thanks for braving the rain to show us the secret garden Laura! I have been looking forward to these Mackinac Island garden tours, I enjoy them SO much! I’ve watched the past years episodes several times over the years as well as tours at your folks place and your beautiful garden! 🥰🌸🌻
Laura you and mom need to have movie time and watch “Somewheres in Time” you’d both enjoy the lovely rest and film💕
I imagine Laura sprinting through the lawn while holding a camera under the rain. Now that's dedication! Thanks for bringing us along.
We love the Grand Hotel. Love getting the carriage ride that goes around and into the interior of the island. Your garden tours are so fun. We’ve seen the homes you’ve shown when we visit the island but, of course, never the private garden spaces. So interesting to see them. You so such a wonderful job describing things and pick such great views. Loved the rainy secret garden tour.
Wow! Thank you for enduring the rain to show us the secret garden, it's magical! For a lot of us, we may never travel there to see it in person, so this was such a gift!
Thanks Laura for braving the rain to show us Mackinac Island’s lovely gardens. I wanted to go to this island after seeing the movie “Somewhere in Time”
Thank you Laura so much. I’ve been watching you for several years and love each video but as a senior not able to get around and visit other gardens the trip to the secret garden was a thrill. Thank you.
Good morning, Laura ☕️ and, thank you for taking the tour in the rain 🌧 What a beautiful island. 😍 I’m sure you and Aaron are enjoying yourselves but must miss your babies. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
What an amazing secret garden space!! Their new greenhouse is gorgeous and do hope it can withstand the island weather.
Hope you guys were able to relax and enjoy some time together away from home.
Thanks for sharing!
I can really appreciate your enthusiasm for the gardens and plants! I definitely share that, the problem with our enthusiasm is that we want everything we see in our gardens. It is not always possible to have all the plants but we can always appreciate the plants in beautiful gardens. Thanks for sharing your videos and the live vibe in the rain. Best time for me to enjoy digging; in the rain!
Fantastic Laura! I am so glad Aaron and you got some time to yourselves. Thank you for showing us this wonderful place!
Laura, thank you for taking the time to talk to and take photos with all of us at the garden show! It was a highlight for a lot of us I’m sure to get to meet you in person.
Wow, just wow! That secret garden was just beautiful! I would have been out in the rain, too! I am so enchanted with the lushness. I’m getting ready to spend some time at the Oregon coast and fully expect to see landscapes something like this, with the ocean backdrops instead of a giant lake. Thank you so much for sharing the experience with us. I must say, you and Aaron clean up good!!🤣🥰💚💚💚
It was pure joy to meet you both at the Grand Garden Show. You both could not have been more gracious and fun to talk to. Laura you were a fantastic speaker and you and Jenny are a dream team! Can’t believe we were lucky enough to meet you in the elevator to kick off the cocktail hour! Aaron if you can, please add more member badges to RUclips 😊
That’s it! I’m booking a trip to Mackinac Island. Thank you so much for walking us around these magical and secret gardens. A little bit of rain won’t stop Laura!
I live in a beautiful state! We enjoy visiting the island in the fall, also.
Beautiful hotel and gardens. Loved the secret garden, sculptures of horses, wow. Thank you for making the sacrifice and getting wet for us, it is much appreciated. Enjoy the rest of your stay.
I am just smiling at the secret garden! Go BLUE!
Laura and Aaron, one thing I really love is your ability to reach through the camera and make us truly feel like we’re right beside you. I catch myself feeling like I know you guys. Thank you so much for bringing so much joy into our lives.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do all the garden tours with Jack Barnwell and the secret garden tour in the rain! You are a trooper! Getting soaked for us! Jack is an amazing designer! I was so excited to see the new Mackinaw Island / Grand Garden Show videos each day! What a treat! You both look amazing. I wish I could have been there too. Someday!
One of your most enjoyable videos. Love them all, but really enjoyed the spontaneity and discovering the secret garden. I always hoped you would create secret gardens yourself, hidden by high hedges/shrubs. Hope you enjoyed your trip.
Oh my!! That secret garden is like a magical little pond, but instead of water, it's flowers!!! So special! 🌺🌸💮🌿🧚♀
Anyone else dying to see Laura’s outfit?? 😍🥰 you looked beautiful laura!
Thanks for braving the elements for us! You’re always thinking of your viewers and you do not disappoint! Loved this video and the secret gardens! Loved seeing Aaron & you dressed up for a cocktail party. So fun! 💕🪴🌺🌻🌿🪴💐🌻
We found the secret garden in 2019. It is so beautiful there, thank you for braving the rain for the tour. Your wet hair finally looks like mine does everyday in my humid garden!
Thank you very much Laura and Aaron for going more than the extra mile to share this lovely experience.
The Island is one place I miss so much since I moved from Michigan to California three years ago. My mother in law worked every Summer at a clothing shop on the Island and sold a pair of shoes to Christopher Reeve when he and Jane Seymour were filming "Somewhere in Time" there. My late husband was also a carriage tour driver on the Island and was chosen to drive President Ford when he visited the Island. So many memories from dining at the Grand Hotel, bike rides around the Island, carriage rides, and so much more. Thanks for letting me relive those wonderful years.
Thank you, Laura, for taking us on such a fun, beautiful tour. I haven't been to this island since I was a child. Would love to go back to see and appreciate through an adults eyes.
That secret garden took my breath away! Literally! Thank you for pushing through the rain and sharing this with us!❤️😊💕
Thank you so much for taking us along Laura! No matter the weather, pouring rain or 100 degree plus sunshine you and Aaron keep us inspired and educated! We feel the love you have for all of us in the Garden Answer community. 💕
I am sure every one gasped at how wet Laura got for her craft! Gorgeous secret garden in the rain. Yes, it rains here in Michigan, but not so much this summer- Mackinac is its own world. It is trying to turn Laura into a flower. Thanks for being a good sport, Laura, and Aaron in a suit jacket! Hot stuff!
Thanks so much for the great tour. At about minute 4:04 the entrance with the white fencing, posts, and lights would look terrific separating your parking area from the new sitting area and would look great from the Hartley. Happy to see you take time to enjoy a visit to one of your favorite places. Thank you for taking us along.
Great idea! Or perhaps something like this could be the guide on her driveway to the front door.
So fun coming along with you. Must be so reinvigorating for you to bask in the beauty and creativity that others have been infusing into these grounds.
P.S. I'm loving all the stack stone!
Thank you so much Laura ! What a beautiful trip for you guys to be Laura and Aaron , not just Mom and Dad , or Garden Answer ! It’s good for couples to do that every once in a while !❤
Thanks Laura for filming in the rain. It was very beautiful and relaxing for us. You probably were shivering. Aaron and Laura looked so lovely. Green looks great on you Laura. Wish I could see your outfit. Maybe next time. I am sure you looked lovely. 🥰💐
So joyful to see you all taking some “private personal” time together as a couple, happy to see you enjoyed yourselves. Greetings and many Blessings! hugs and kisses for the kiddos! ❤️🙏🏼🙌🏼
What a great trip, the island seems to get more beautiful every year. Love the tour of the secret garden.
Thank you for taking us along on this amazing secret garden tour. It was beautiful! My parents took me and my sister to the island when I was little. I’m 72 yrs old so it didn’t look like it does now. It’s on my Bucket List to visit it again.
Hi Laura, How fortunate are your viewers, myself included, that you and Aaron are willing to take us along on your life's journeys! I'm truly enjoying your garden tours and appreciate the lengths that you will go to (like pouring rain) just to bring happiness to others. Thank you for giving so many the opportunity to live vicariously through you. God bless you and your family. 🌻
Thank you for braving the rain so we could enjoy the secret garden. Absolutely beautiful 😍
Thank you for taking us along on this beautiful trip. I’ve enjoyed seeing everything you’ve shared! It would be my dream trip to see all the beautiful flowers, homes, and meeting you & Aaron, Jerry & Jenny and Jack would be so wonderful. Until then, I am so grateful for your videos. Thanks for sharing!
The garden tours have been great, Laura. I’m really glad you 2 had a chance to get away together. Even though it was a working trip, there is something about time away with your Honey, without the pull & ever present distraction of children, as much as we love & adore them. Even so, it can be hard to leave little ones, even though we know, without a doubt, they are in the best possible hands. I say, good for you!
Oh my Lord! Aaron without a cap! I literally gasped. 🤣 What an amazing place. Thank you so much for sharing.
I was so excited to see another Mackinac Island tour this week! Looked forward to each day's tour, can't get enough. Coming from the dry West coast I appreciate the clean, lush greenery. This is definitely a bucket list item, this and Prince Edward Island. You both look dazzling dressed up! Thank you both for taking us along. Btw, what trees were you taking shelter under, we just saw the many trunks. Gorgeous secret garden! 🌻
Cedar
I have enjoyed all your tours of the island. I was wondering too if the blue in the fountain helped with the algae? So many ideas ! The flowers are unbelievable and so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing all this with us.
Laura we bumped into each other going into the hotel as you were running in out of the rain from this tour. To all your fans who didn’t get to go to this amazing garden show, Laura is as charming in person as she is in her videos. Such a thrill meeting you! 🦋
Oh I miss Michigan rains sooo much!...thank you for taking me back...next year I'll be walking that secret garden path and having a Michigan woodland garden of my own...❤🌿
I start my day by watching you, it relaxes me and this island oh my I wish I was there! Aaron looking sharp!!
Thanks for taking us along!! So glad you got away for a holiday! I think that’s the first time I’ve seen Arron without a ball cap on!
What a trooper you were to film the awesome secret garden in the pouring rain just for your fans! Thank you 😊 🥰
The secret gardens are gems!
So beautiful! I caught myself saying "wait go back" when you passed the horse and carriage boxwood sculpture 😆
You always make me feel like I'm there walking along with you.
I also felt your pain when you had to change. It happens to me more often than not 😁😅
🌿💚Oh I loved those secret gardens Laura, and yes Aaron looked spiffy!! You both looked great, Mackinaw Island is a beautiful place.. now go back to your beautiful place and make some of those walkways into secret places in the South garden AND the area behind the Hartley where you have came on board with Aaron about those boxwood removal.. good place to start a secret space there since you already have the grass to lay stone walkways in there😍 I can’t wait to see what you take away from this trip.. after you squeeze and gives kisses to your babes!! 💚🌿
Every once in a while one has to leave ones comfort zone. Literally 🙏🏻🌧
Aaron looks real handsome in a suit. Glad you had a great time at the show :)
Good morning, GA fam! ☕️🌺🌹 I loved this! Rain is one of my favorite things, so this was all such a great treat this morning. I hope you had a waterproof housing on that camera, Laura! 😂 I am glad to see you all are having such a good time!
Rain nor storm will separate Laura from her beloved plants.
You´re a real sports Laura. Thank you for this beautiful stroll in the rain.
I posted an earlier comment on the last tour Laura gave of Eagles Perch garden. I felt badly about it because I said I still haven't seen any garden that rivals Laura's. It isn't about comparing gardens to others because as gardeners we should appreciate all the diverse style of gardening as well as the zones gardens are created in. I have a vision for my garden but still have a long way to go. Sharing our spaces and ideas is what helps us all achieve that special look and feel we all want. Thanks to Laure and others who share their knowledge and talent to all of us.
How lovely! There’s something magical about walking through a garden in the rain. Everything just seems so much more alive and it is - it’s drinking up every drop of that liquid life. Thanks so much for sharing Laura - you are a trooper! Have a safe trip home.
Thank you so much for taking us on this tour even in the rain! Everything looks so beautiful and it was even great seeing y’all dressed up 🤗
Hi Laura and Aaron! It was so nice of you to go out in the rain to show us the secret garden. It was beautiful! Aaron, you dress up really nice! Thank you so much for sharing!
We visit the Island every year and never knew this beautiful garden existed. Thank you for sacrificing dry clothes (and hair) to give us a glimpse of this stunning slice of heaven!
Gardeners are always seeking new vistas and specimens! Even when wet and thirsty. Thanks Laura.
What an absolute treat this was! Thank you for bringing us along. 😍
