Haha! The grin on Aaron's face when addressing the fart question. I for one am glad Aaron kept that part in, it was so funny and just a normal ol' part of life.
I agree, that was so cute! I like them too. My hubby doesn't get it, so far I just have some boxwood balls. He has warmed up to them since they are green all year.
I like boxwoods, too! I have them across the front of my house, and they've been there since 1998, when I purchased my home...and who knows how long before that. They are beautiful and mature, and lush. To me, they're very classic and everyone should place what they want in their yards/gardens. They're getting a trim next week. I don't notice a smell at all. I'll use them at my new home, too. I don't understand the disdain for them, but oh well! "You do you!" 🤗
Giving the Senior Center the buckets of flowers would be so much fun for the residents to create their own arrangements. I thought that was a fabulous idea ... they'd love it!
yea... can you imagine the older women fighting over who gets the premium colored flowers before someone else? Way to create a Senior Center Brawl!!!! Think of the behavior in the past on black Friday at Walmart or Target, etc. ...LOL. Sorry, just really got a great Senior Center Comedy skit idea thinking about it LOL.
I think your idea to bring buckets of flowers to the home is brilliant. Then the residents could have a creative activity to design their own jar bouquet💐
I was also surprised to hear that there aren't requirements for septic pumping, like someone said in WI it's required every 3 years and the county keeps track. Also I thought the fart conversation was hilarious
We have our own septic system and it is so important to be pumped regularly. State laws change and we had to have a new well to make sure the distance is correct. Not a fun thing to have done. Our new well is very deep now.
What would be an awesome activity for the center is to have them each arrange their own flower bouquet. Maybe you could tell the aides when flowers are ready to be cut and the residents can gather on a certain day to arrange their flowers. It would be such a wonderful activity for them and bring them such joy to be working with flowers.
I can't tell you how long I've been watching your channel. I love your soft-spoken enthusiasm for gardening. I'm always in awe of your mastery of plant names & species. I'm almost 70 & I have a postage stamp hilly property that I grew up on having purchased it from my siblings after Mom passed in 2019. Although Dad & my grandad both had green thumbs, Mom did not. The property, gardens & orchard had been left to survive on thei own. They've grown pretty wild. Given the steep grade of the hill, it can be treacherous to weed & plant without proper terracing. I must confess I love to rejoice in your spacious green fields and how you can carve out meandering walks and gardens to optimize their beauty and productivity. I struggle to leave the green in my thumb & not let envy creep into my heart. 😂 ❤ I really enjoy the way your & your hubby chat during your recap videos. Blessings abundant to you and your family.
I am definitely with Laura on the reservoirs. California,where I live has a very constant cycle . I’m 80 years old and have lived in CA 44 yrs and I have seen this repeatedly. We have 5-7 years of very little rainfall or snow which of course puts us into a drought, but then we get q or 2 yrs of a lot of rain- too much for our current reservoirs so much of it is released into the ocean. A simple solution would be a couple of more reservoirs. It’s true we need to keep our rivers ears flowing but the time we have to let the majority of the water out is during the same time there is plenty of water in the rivers. Then when they really need water in those rivers our reservoirs are low so everyone suffers. Our weather pattern depends solely on El Niño and La Niña. People forget that much of CA really is a desert
Hostas - there’s a wonderful local lady to me (UK) who grows her hosta in hanging baskets to stop the slug/snail damage. They look amazing hanging under tree canopies. Kathy (Cathy?) Brown - she wrote a book on it. Such gorgeous gardens, if you get the chance to go.
I have an aunt who collects hosta. She has them all around her gardens. They're all labeled, with several varieties I've never seen before. It's almost like a hosta museum that you can walk through. 😍
As usual, a wonderful recap with Aaron’s occasional snide , funny comments. Thanks you two for helping me start my Sunday with a smile on my face, plus some new garden knowledge, as always.❤😊
I've grown rice in the past. Super easy. Use a shallow rubber horse trough, put a few inches of soil in the bottom, put the seed in the soil and fill the trough with water until it covers the dirt. As the rice grows, keep adding water to just below the growing tips until you reach the top of the trough. Keep the water topped off until the rice is harvested. The hard part is separating the rice from the chaff. There are machines for micro growers, but they were pretty expensive. I communicated with the creator of the micro machines and the best idea we could come up with for micro, micro growing is to spread the rice out on a piece of wood and rub another piece of wood over it with a fan blowing on the rice to blow the chaff away. I only grew it for a year or two. Too much work, lol.
Oh but the fart smell part made me laugh! I love your guy’s banter! And I was so happy there was so much back and forth in the tour! Your relationship and teamwork on your yard is so nice to see and hear because Aaron’s perspective can be so different and it really makes Laura think. It’s super neat!
Good day Laura and Aaron and friends watching. It’s raining steadily here in southeast Michigan with a high of 80 again today. Enjoyed this video recap so much, you two are a delight to watch and I enjoy hearing snippets of ‘upcoming’ plans and projects. As always thank you for sharing your amazing Kiddoes, your family, Paul & Bethany (of course!) and kitties, too. Enjoy a new gardening week everyone. Prayers going out to friends dnd family affected by the horrible tornadoes this weekend 🙏🌸💕🌷💕
Hello fellow SE Michigander Kind of a dreary day Stopped raining here in Dogbone so I may go out back and pull more weeds We're fortunate We don't get many tornadoes Even those small ones are scary Happy National Blueberry Pie Day! 🥧
I love boxwoods, too. About that mystery smell, it was not long after and not far from where Laura stepped on Douglas and startled him, and I had thought it was one time you could legitimately blame the cat. 😅
The warehouse is HUGE!! WOW!!! I would venture to say that if you did a tour of the warehouse, it would increase your sales! I'm so happy for you guys!!
I placed an order for felcos and I am so excited to have a nice tool for my small hands. I have had dull old tools all my life! You have inspired me to put an effort and make sure I have the best tools to grown a few flowers and maybe a few veggies
Yes, I am finally getting great use of my grow light! It was in a box for two years because I knew we would be moving. Now in Alaska the grow light is necessary if you want to get a head start to growing in an area with basically four months to grow in. Every year I am building on my previous gardening knowledge. Laura and Aaron, I am finally getting to use what I learned from watching your podcast!!!!! So blessed!!!!!!!!
Oh my goodness I actually just received my kneeling pad today!! Impressive how hard and fast you guys work! 😊 Thank you so much for everything you do. I’m sure you already know but in case you don’t.. you are such an inspiration! and if the world had more people like you it would be a much better place. 🌎🌱💚
I LOVE boxwoods too! They make me think of an English garden, which I absolutely love! I love the formal look, with occasional beautiful pots and garden statue. Just so lovely with the flowers as well. My happy place! Your garden looks like an English garden and that’s one reason why I love your channel!
1So fun and informative to watch your videos Love the fun additions of the "fire", farts and the "Laura in the boxwoods" haha! Also delighted to hear about your pickleball plans on the resurfaced sports pad. You will never regret having pickleball as its great for all ages! My life consists of gardening in Canada and in Florida, watching Garden Answer daily and pickleball to complete my week! Love you guys, the kids and your life! Thank you for sharing with us!
Horses - I’m excited because you’re excited 🥹 so sweet. I love boxwoods. My graham blandy is my favorite. It’s more chubby like an arborvitae, though, instead of pillar so I guess that means it likes its placement? ❤ all your videos.
Laura.. You just discussed hosta’s. Wanted to give you and Aaron some info. We are members of American Hosta Society and Western NY Hosta Society. We are located just south of Buffalo, NY, Zone 6A. There are more than 10 thousand registered hosta’s and many more that aren’t. In our small suburban garden, we have over 750 different hostas, from mini to giant. We only have a couple duplicates, because they are my favorites! When we ran out of garden space, we went to pots. We just unloaded the garage if more than 250 different potted hostas! We wait until a killing frost in the fall, strip the dead leaves off, and they go into an unheated, not attached garage. They are stored on shelves all winter and completely ignored. No water, no snowballs on the pot, nothing. The hostas are dormant and do not need water. We have several large potted hostas in the yard that are too heavy to move. We put a brick under the pot so they are tipped. Reason is to prevent the heat thaw cycle. The snow lands on the soil, and over the winter the soil can freeze. On those late winter days, the sun comes out and melts the snow. The water can’t get through the frozen dirt and that leads to rot of the crown. Happy to say, we didn’t lose any hosta’s this year at all. We have learned so much from you and do enjoy seeing your children and extended family. We are participants in Gardens:Buffalo-Niagara Open Gardens and our local Garden Walk. We host tour groups from around the area and from out of state (Florida) and Canada. We are on Facebook too. Whit’s End Gardens. If you would like to see an area who gardens, Buffalo hosts the largest free Garden Walk (over 400 gardens) every July and there are over 100 Open Gardens on Thursday and Friday in July. Come visit! Benjamin would enjoy Whit’s End Gardens as we have 3 different gardens railroads that circle around our shaded yard.
I received my knee pad-thank you. It’s so pretty, I don’t want to use it! It’s “art” in my garden shed right now, although I’m sure I’ll break it in soon.
Hello from Chicago. Thank you for another fun recap. Stone benches would be beautiful, but I like a back on my bench too.😉 Everything you do looks amazing.😊
You are so great about wanting to protect your neighbor's views! I live in an area where we all have about an acre lot. And the homes are pretty nice but people will put junk in their backyards right next to the property line and it drives me nuts (there are no trees or fences in our neighborhood)! I would definitely not mind a high tunnel, that's just me personally. I think high tunnels are beautiful in their own way.
Hello Johanna I'm from Michigan We have a large Dutch population on the western side of my state. Holland, is just lovely, but so many smaller towns are too, as well as the larger city of Grand Rapids. The Dutch population is almost half a million in Michigan. Come visit some time. Welkom.
We have a koppert here in my small Canadian town. I love their products. Infact, when you go to a garden centre and purchase already made flower baskets, they come with the koppert sacks attached for white flies and other bugs. They are a great company. They have been here what seems like forever. I remember my brother always going there to get stuff for his small greenhouse, and always talking about how great their stuff works.
I order from proven winners because I don’t drive any more. Even though there are a lot of big box stores and nursery centers in my area. Just don’t have the transportation to shop. I love to garden especially flowers and perennials. So proven winners have been my shopping and delivery store. Thanks for all knowledge and showing things that are new. Waiting patiently for the kneels pads. ❤❤❤
My tulips come back year after year! I try and find perennial varieties meant to come back. Dig deep! I seem to have best luck when I plant them deep 9" or more. That gives you lots of space for perennial or annual plants on top 😊
I remember when you first received the battery operated tiller. During Covid, I purchased one as well by Snapper along with a push mower and weed eater. That way the battery was interchangeable. The tiller, like you said, bounced and did not till far enough in the ground. I spent too many hours trying to get the job done. Since then, I bought a gas powered one. I like this much better. I liked the other battery operated tools I bought, but that was not what I needed.
2014 your first year! Doesn’t this make this year your ten year anniversary of being creators? Did you or are you going to celebrate it? I mean 10 years is nothing to sneeze at in the creator/TH-cam world! Ten really informative, creative and fun content I might add. Love it!
9:21 luckily there has been a lot of effort to improve the way reservoirs are engineered 💪🏼 go science; new reservoirs prevent evaporation and temperature spikes that kill many species of flora and fauna necessary in an ecosystem. We are far better off now that we have learned how to utilize water reclamation more efficiently than if we had stuck with the first engineering attempts 100 years ago 🙌🏼💪🏼 PSA to continue to fund and support STEM and the EPA 🙏🏼
We have tulips growing that I have never planted. We’ve lived in this house for 30 plus years and have tulips coming up where I wouldn’t even think of planting them, under a tree in our front lawn. Granted their sparse but their there mixed in with daffodils, such a pretty natural sight. 🌷💚🙃
When I purchased my current home 19 years ago it had ten plus feet of weeds. After removing the weeds this gorgeous carpet of bulbs appeared. It was dreamy. I have much wildlife and the only bulbs left are the additional ones that I have added since.
@@crazyflowerlady1060 my squirrels pull up my newly planted bulbs but don't replant them! I know they could as I've seen them 'plant' aka store their peanuts for another day in the grass!
I like boxwoods too 🙌🏻. I have green mountain boxwoods in my woodland border and let them grow naturally. I’ve started to snip the ends to help them fill out but they naturally have a loose pyramidal shape. There aren’t many choices for understory shrubs-most areas don’t get any direct sun once the trees have leafed out and more deer are in the area now. Wish I could find a pine for shade/deer. Great editing 😊

I loved the “fart” scene. I thought it was so funny and normal. Good job Aaron for leaving that in! 😅
After hearing that, I was afraid of a gas leak, because that can smell awful!
RidX can help with the septic, sometimes also with slower drains. Worth a try if you haven't tried it. Love your vids.
Haha! The grin on Aaron's face when addressing the fart question. I for one am glad Aaron kept that part in, it was so funny and just a normal ol' part of life.
Wow! I didn’t realize you have a WAREHOUSE! Your company and brand is GROWING! I love that for you! Great job!
😂😂 I lost it when Laura was in the boxwood hedge “I like them”
I agree, that was so cute! I like them too. My hubby doesn't get it, so far I just have some boxwood balls. He has warmed up to them since they are green all year.
I like boxwoods, too!

OMG That was hilarious!! Great editing! I laughed out loud (for real!) hahahha
I died! So funny
I am loving the humor of their new editor.
The Editing in these videos lately has been incredible. Love the fun and playful style while still being very formal and still Garden Answer ❤❤
the tulip fire edit has me laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣
Well the "What's the deal ("man") with boxwoods?" segment with the clip of Laura behind a bunch of boxwoods was a hoot! LOL!
I have replayed that little fire clip like three or four times! It really cracks me up!
“I’m excited because you’re excited”…true love right there 🐴💕
Stone benches would complete that area, they’d give purpose to the empty spaces between the trees and would tie in with the stone urns ❤️
Perfect idea!!
And add to the formality of the space there
We're happy to help you spend $$$$$ Laura and Aaron...LOL
The fire edit 😆 The boxwood edit 😂 love the humor in this one! 😄 Always a great way to get our Sunday rolling before church. 💕

Such a joy to watch your videos and recaps!! I feel extremely lucky to have come across the Garden Answer channel many years ago 💖💖
Household septic tanks are normally pumped every 3-5 years. You have more children and employees than you used to.
Our town requires pumping every 3 years.-edit to add in WI
I agree. The state of WI mandates inspecting or cleaning every 3 years. If you smell something, you likely have a problem.
I was also surprised to hear that there aren't requirements for septic pumping, like someone said in WI it's required every 3 years and the county keeps track.
Also I thought the fart conversation was hilarious
We don't have any septic tank requirements in our area. (Thankfully)
We have our own septic system and it is so important to be pumped regularly. State laws change and we had to have a new well to make sure the distance is correct. Not a fun thing to have done. Our new well is very deep now.

I'm almost 70 & I have a postage stamp hilly property that I grew up on having purchased it from my siblings after Mom passed in 2019.

The title of this video. . . 🤣 Your channel is the best! It's always entertaining and educational. The best content on the internet!
But do we know who actually farted .. I think one of them just needs to confess 😂
I am absolutely LOVING the new editing style! Laughing out loud about the boxwood! 😂 💚
Brushwood Nursery is the absolute best place to order clematis from. They’re specialists, and send gallon plants with big, beautiful root systems.
Completely agree. Now that word is out about Brushwood, you gotta be quick to order while they still have stock.
I am definitely with Laura on the reservoirs. California,where I live has a very constant cycle . I’m 80 years old and have lived in CA 44 yrs and I have seen this repeatedly.

Hostas - there’s a wonderful local lady to me (UK) who grows her hosta in hanging baskets to stop the slug/snail damage. They look amazing hanging under tree canopies.
Kathy (Cathy?) Brown - she wrote a book on it. Such gorgeous gardens, if you get the chance to go.
Mine are in pots (with copper tape) and raised off the ground for the same reason. I also encourage the local hedgehog population to visit 🦔🦔🦔
Wow! Great idea!
@@yorkie75 I wish we had hedgehogs here - zone 8b, SW Washington State.
I have an aunt who collects hosta. She has them all around her gardens. They're all labeled, with several varieties I've never seen before. It's almost like a hosta museum that you can walk through. 😍
Another great recap video. Thank you for sharing your life!
As usual, a wonderful recap with Aaron’s occasional snide , funny comments. Thanks you two for helping me start my Sunday with a smile on my face, plus some new garden knowledge, as always.❤😊
Since you know them. Please let them know, it is nice to use 2 kneeling pads side by side... when planting a row of items...
I've grown rice in the past. Super easy. Use a shallow rubber horse trough, put a few inches of soil in the bottom, put the seed in the soil and fill the trough with water until it covers the dirt. As the rice grows, keep adding water to just below the growing tips until you reach the top of the trough. Keep the water topped off until the rice is harvested.
The hard part is separating the rice from the chaff. There are machines for micro growers, but they were pretty expensive. I communicated with the creator of the micro machines and the best idea we could come up with for micro, micro growing is to spread the rice out on a piece of wood and rub another piece of wood over it with a fan blowing on the rice to blow the chaff away.
I only grew it for a year or two. Too much work, lol.

Good morning from Maryland. Going up to 86 degrees today!
I'm from Maryland too and after I get off work at 2 today, I'm hoping to plant my remaining deck pots. Hope its not too hot!
From Maryland too..had alittle rain yesterday and it's warming up today. Time to plant.
Yes we had a little rain yesterday to which I was happy for!

Pickleball is addictive! I'm 68 and love it. 2nd favorite activity next to gardening.
Hey one of those kneeling pads is mine! 🙋🏻♀️😁 I love the size! Can't wait for it's arrival!
Just received mine today 😊
I loved the “fart” conversation. It was so real and human. Made me laugh and love you both even more. 😂

I planted the Rosy Diamond tulip too. Amazing. People in my office thought it was a peony - it was so big and full!
Garden Crossing LLC out of Michigan has a good variety of Clematis for sale and they ship across the country. I've had great experience with them.
I look forward to Sundays after church and lunch to sit down and watch your weekly highlights videos. Thanks for the entertainment!
Great recap, as always, I enjoyed it so much. Such a perfect start to my Sunday. Have a blessed day everyone.
I plant a few rows of annual flowers that I use to bless seniors in homes and a nursing home with bouquets. I love brightening their day!
if the residents are able they may love making the arrangements themselves as a project .
38:55 Lol!
What’s your deal with boxwoods? Great editing!
19:00 awe❤❤❤ The love is felt through the screen!!

We have a large Dutch population on the western side of my state. Holland, is just lovely, but so many smaller towns are too, as well as the larger city of Grand Rapids. The Dutch population is almost half a million in Michigan. Come visit some time. Welkom.
Love your mug! I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!! Amen! Love and blessings from Ontario Canada :)
We have a koppert here in my small Canadian town. I love their products. Infact, when you go to a garden centre and purchase already made flower baskets, they come with the koppert sacks attached for white flies and other bugs. They are a great company. They have been here what seems like forever. I remember my brother always going there to get stuff for his small greenhouse, and always talking about how great their stuff works.
FYI on septic….lots of moisture equals occasional “fart” smell 💩 Not to worry. Absolutely love watching your channel. 🥰
I order from proven winners because I don’t drive any more. Even though there are a lot of big box stores and nursery centers in my area. Just don’t have the transportation to shop.
I love to garden especially flowers and perennials.
So proven winners have been my shopping and delivery store.
Thanks for all knowledge and showing things that are new.
Waiting patiently for the kneels pads. ❤❤❤
Do you live in SE Michigan?
I will drive you to a good local nursery.
Good morning from Florida GA friends 😊
I had to replay the Laura in the boxwoods bush about 5 times because it made me laugh sooooo hard. That made my day yall crack me up 😂
My tulips come back year after year! I try and find perennial varieties meant to come back. Dig deep! I seem to have best luck when I plant them deep 9" or more. That gives you lots of space for perennial or annual plants on top 😊
The tulip fire 🌷🔥😂 This editor is really growing on me 😂
Here in Scottsdale, we're zone 10a. 😊❤❤
Lol! I love Laura’s floating head on the boxwoods 😂👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Love you guys!! Thank you so much for keeping up the good work!!
Good morning from Delaware Garden Answer friends.
I remember when you first received the battery operated tiller. During Covid, I purchased one as well by Snapper along with a push mower and weed eater. That way the battery was interchangeable. The tiller, like you said, bounced and did not till far enough in the ground. I spent too many hours trying to get the job done. Since then, I bought a gas powered one. I like this much better. I liked the other battery operated tools I bought, but that was not what I needed.
Highly recommend Brushwood Nursery and Hummingbird Farm for ordering clematis online.
We pumped our septic religiously every three years. Don’t want to take a chance on something going wrong.
2014 your first year! Doesn’t this make this year your ten year anniversary of being creators? Did you or are you going to celebrate it? I mean 10 years is nothing to sneeze at in the creator/TH-cam world! Ten really informative, creative and fun content I might add. Love it!
The editing is great lately 😂 I love the little jokes so much.
9:21 luckily there has been a lot of effort to improve the way reservoirs are engineered 💪🏼 go science; new reservoirs prevent evaporation and temperature spikes that kill many species of flora and fauna necessary in an ecosystem. We are far better off now that we have learned how to utilize water reclamation more efficiently than if we had stuck with the first engineering attempts 100 years ago 🙌🏼💪🏼 PSA to continue to fund and support STEM and the EPA 🙏🏼
We have tulips growing that I have never planted. We’ve lived in this house for 30 plus years and have tulips coming up where I wouldn’t even think of planting them, under a tree in our front lawn. Granted their sparse but their there mixed in with daffodils, such a pretty natural sight. 🌷💚🙃
Ditto!
When I purchased my current home 19 years ago it had ten plus feet of weeds. After removing the weeds this gorgeous carpet of bulbs appeared. It was dreamy. I have much wildlife and the only bulbs left are the additional ones that I have added since.
Squirrels move my bulbs all over my property. lol.
@@crazyflowerlady1060 my squirrels pull up my newly planted bulbs but don't replant them! I know they could as I've seen them 'plant' aka store their peanuts for another day in the grass!
Yes sometimes they just dig them up. I cover newly planted bulbs with wire fencing till they sprout in spring.@@lisag6796
I like boxwoods too 🙌🏻. I have green mountain boxwoods in my woodland border and let them grow naturally. I’ve started to snip the ends to help them fill out but they naturally have a loose pyramidal shape. There aren’t many choices for understory shrubs-most areas don’t get any direct sun once the trees have leafed out and more deer are in the area now. Wish I could find a pine for shade/deer. Great editing 😊
Love the beautiful banter between you two. Lovely video. Love from Australia.
Wondering if the residents occasionally would like to arrange their own flowers as an activity for them?
Love the weekly recaps ❤❤❤
I love box woods too! I have boxwood babies in the greenhouse!!! They are calming too!!😊
Your editing is so funny. Tulip fire...LMAOOOO...
Good afternoon Laura and Aaron. As always so enjoyable! Hugs from N.C..❤
Wooooo hoooo!!!!! My kneeling pad will be here Thursday. So excited!! Love this video, as I do all of them. ❤
I agree with Aaron on the benches with backs. There is a charm to a bench like that. It's inviting.
I love the new editor! Thanks for the laughs!
