    This is gorgeous. Are you considering adding old fashioned lamp posts throughout your property to light it up at night? I can imagine strolling through right after sunset being so charming.

      I have always wondered if landscape and outdoor lighting was a planned future project. Your gardens are so beautiful and having them highlighted at night is sort of magical. Also, I think I'd remove those windows from the porch just to be able to enjoy the sight and sound from there as well. Thanks for all that you do!

    I hope this doesn’t sound creepy…because clearly we don’t know each other…but, it’s such a blessing and it brings so much joy to see your kiddos playing or following you around in your videos. I just love all the happiness your videos bring…not just from the wealth of garden answers you provide, but also from all the beautiful relationships you share with us…you, Aaron and your kiddos…you and your parents…you and Monica (and your bro gets an occasional shout out)…you and your friends and neighbors (well, we don’t see your neighbors, but you mention how wonderful they ALL are), and you and your community!! It’s absolutely beautiful. Thank you for all of it!!

    I would just need a hammock or chaise lounger, and a good book out there in the shade close to the fountain. Definitely could take a good nap! It looks absolutely perfect in the dappled shade area.
    Also, Benjamin’s little legs marching behind you to the barn was adorable. He is such a good helper 🥰💚⛲️

    Would be really cool to see a still overhead shot (from drone footage) of the property from the same angle and fade from year to year since the time you bought the property to now and explain the changes you made each season. Sometimes it’s hard to understand the layout, plus you’ve done SO MUCH it would be really interesting to see the changes from that vantage point.

She took a video of walking them, and while the older was on the straight and narrow, the younger pulled a Laura with easily distracted moments, jaunting off to the side. It was hilarious 😂

    It’s coming together Laura! I could feel your excitement! With each project, you can see more clearly your vision.
    Funny story, we had a black lab mix and our neighbors had a fountain similar to the size of yours. Sabrina, the dog, would meander over every afternoon and lie down under it. My neighbor would call and let me know that she was there. It was a daily occurrence. Maybe the sound of the fountain was soothing to her, or maybe she just really liked my neighbors!

    Laura, could you set aside a day when you and your Dad, with all the necessary parts go around your garden and fix the five other fountains you have. My favourite is Hebe, the mythical cupbearer and would she compliment your new Hartley garden? The kitchen fountain might just need some coins - Alan Titchmarsh, England's much loved head gardener said when he was learning horticulture at Kew Gardens they always had loose coins in their pocket and invariably a few coins would sort most trickles. And if it remains a problem move the affected planting below and replace with paving/cobbles. The hospitality fountain is so well placed to cool that particular area and used to work - actually they ALL used to work.

    So amazing! Lovely sounds and beautiful to look at. The kids playing in it at the end was priceless. Only Laura’s girl would be playing with a landscape staple.

    Try to fix Kensington fountain, you said few videos ago that lower bowl is broken. Mix some cement slur and press it with hand in glove in crack and let it dry, if it hold, great, if not, you didn't lose lot. It's not forever fix but temporarily, maybe it would hold for this season.

    I love the spot where you placed the fountain - It becomes a discovery from afar and a focal point from within! Looks beautiful, stately and sounds so peaceful drawing you to a space less traveled👏👍🎉❤️It was meant to be here, as though it was always there, excellent choice!

    That fountain is gorgeous. If you could just record it in a 10 min loop I could fall Asleep to the sound. So calming and peaceful

    Absolute perfection! The scale, the location, the music. CONGRATULATIONS! Between you and Matthes (Southerner's Northern Garden) you almost have me convinced not to renovate my pond and just go with a gorgeous fountain, instead.

    Such perfection!!! It’s gorgeous!! When I saw you first show it I thought, “Wouldn’t it be lovely to have a little bistro table tucked under that tree so you could sit and enjoy a cup of coffee and listen to that beauty?” Ohhhh but your ideas with benches, etc. sounds so lovely. I love it!!

    I did NOT want this video to end! I wanted more angles, more close-ups, more of the fountain just gurgling happily, more of your thoughts and what to plant around it, maybe some drone shots, haha. I agree 100% with you Laura, this fountain is ✨PERFECTION!✨ LOVE IT!

  • @marylinville7091
    @marylinville7091 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The fountain is absolutely gorgeous ❤️! I know when you get done planting up the area around the fountain, get some seating and stepping stones it will look like heaven on earth. What a beautiful place it will be to just sit, relax and reflect. It looks like it’s a hit with Benjamin and Samantha ❤️❤️❤️

    Oh my! How absolutely gorgeous!! I’m so happy for you Laura. It’s so fun to see how excited you get with each dream as it comes true. Your and Aarons hard work is all coming together. I know you also have a crew of hard workers that help. What a fabulous place to live and Benjamin and Savannah Grace are so very blessed to grow up in such s gorgeous and fun place. Can’t wait to see what you plant in the area. 😃

    Every fountain needs some tinkering : when installed, and then periodically. That’s the fun of fountains .
    Plus, sometimes we get tired and want to change them up a bit .. 💪🏽
    It’s hard work and sometimes wet and dirty but always rewarding when you hear that perfect sound

    This section in your garden is open and inviting and you just elevated it. I’m sure when you begin your planting and put seating around it you will elevate this by 10Xs. Was it difficult for you on choosing a fountain from Unique stone for this area? All of their pieces are just beautiful. You have an eye for beauty Laura . This was informative and of course entertaining. Watching you in glee excitement now and for your future plans for this area made me excited for you all as well. Thank you now and always for sharing your beautiful ever evolving life with us all.
