Can Aaron come over and teach my husband how to have that reaction when I show him something I did in the yard? That was such a supportive, enthusiastic reaction Aaron had! My husband is almost there, but good for Aaron for supporting you in all you do!
Placing the maple in the spot where the spruce was, is definitely the better position! AND centering the fountain with the window will look great!! Thanks for showing the struggle with roots, etc... many videos would skip over that. It's refreshing to see REAL gardening, struggles and all😊🌱🌲
Definitely like the maple in that spot. I'm sure the hens will, too. Have you thought of a fast growing vine to shade the West side of coop until the tree is large enough cast more shade?
I absolutely LOVE your content! It is especially refreshing to see the interaction between you and Aaron!! So much respect and love is always shown! I pray for God's continued blessings for your family! Have a wonderful day! Enjoy!!!
I love how supportive Aaron is! Laura's like "it's not perfect" and he shuts her right down lol! I'm with him... it looks really good! One of my favorite areas in your garden!
I love how real this video is! Sometimes project videos make things looks so easy and it always makes me feel like a haphazard gardener. You showed us how projects often develop. Gardening definitely teaches us patience, flexibility and the benefits of hard work. Thanks for another great video,
Yea thar is what I was thinking a lot of people make a video where everything is good, but we do not really see what goes into it. Or the lasting results
The Maple tree looks perfect in its new home. Love, love, love your videos. No professional fluff, just reality in gardening, including the little hiccups along the way. Thank you!
This video lifted my garden spirit today! I am getting so much more done in my yard this spring than I have the last 3 springs in this home because of the quarantine. My yard is nothing compared to yours as it was a blank slate when we moved in and gardening is my hobby but you have inspired and motivated me so much to create beautiful areas around my home. It may take time, but it is getting there and every time I have the energy and motivation to get out and do a little more you can be sure you've had a part in that. Thank you for all you do!
Lili Maza I honestly started gardening 5 years ago and now I have an entire TH-cam channel dedicated to gardening. I absolutely love it & Laura was my inspiration
I know that it would be a huge project but maybe a quarterly/seasonal magazine. I would definitely have to devote an entire shelf, or two or three to keep them all! I usually only tear out the articles/pictures I like, but Aaron takes the most beautiful pictures of Laura’s amazing projects that it would only be right to keep the whole magazine together and collect them. ❤️
Laura I love how that turned out, I agree that in the end that was a better spot to put the maple, and the evergreen looks great in it’s new location as well. Good call!😊
I absolutely understand "garden spirit" it's how we were created in the beginning, to "tend the garden"..so for many if us it's the most satisfying work! Love it, what a workout!💪❤
My garden Spirit is trying to get going!! May 1st is when our area starts going. Soon we will be seeing color on porches. Nothing compares to your beautiful land. I so enjoy this every morning. We had a maple tree taken out 2 yrs. ago. Our tree services told us not to plant another tree for 3 yrs. the roots from the old on were poison and needed to die. I trust him. So we will plant on next year. I will check in tomorrow morning. Joyce
Wow coffee with Laura and Aaron and lots of digging!! You two work so well together and I love how quick you can change the plan, or at least it looks quick on video lol. What a nice look the bed has with those bricks down instead of the pavers, you did a really nice job laying them. And you are right that is our garden spirit when we change things around and plant new things!!!!
I really appreciate the fact that you let us see the things that do not go as planned. The sense of honesty is what make me appreciate this channel. You did some rethinking and some improvising and it all worked out.
All told, I do think it's a blessing in disguise that the maple had to be moved. I know it hurts to have to move a tree like that, but I don't think you'll regret it and the chickens will appreciate having more shade in their run, sooner. You'll find something else gorgeous to plant there for winter interest, you always do. And, I'll cringe as you dig their holes in that unforgiving mass of roots, but all's fair in love and gardening as long as it's pretty in the end. And, it will be. Awesome job on the bricks, by the way. Aaron was appropriately impressed, and he got to use his auger. Editing was top flight, as always. ~ Lisa
You have to be proud of yourself. Those pavers bugging you for a long time. It turned out beautiful & the perfect example how one project turns into several projects. Your determination is impressive. Love the team work. Looks so good.💞
The Maple tree will be beautiful and it's in just the RIGHT spot! Please keep it there. It will be lovely as it shades the fountain during the summers ~ the water will be a welcoming sound right there.
It looks so so good Laura. Watching your videos is so inspiring. I've changed my whole garden. I have removed bushes and trees and made myself a large perennial bed. I got hold of supertunia vista bublegum, siverberry, violet vien and 2 types of superbells. I bought 12 pieces of heuchera wildberry and wild rose and 4 super nice grasses called fireworks. You've finally made me quit smoking so I can spend the money in my garden instead. so thank you Laura for all your inspiration and your hard work, it gives me such a drive even though I live on the other side of the globe Thank you :-)
I was watching the video of you doing that bed 3 years ago...crazy to have watched you plant that spruce in that spot and now to see you move it. Watched it before you uploaded this one! 😀😀 have been going back looking and videos I have watched 100 times before... love seeing the change in your garden..would be amazing to do year by year review. You are such a gifted garden Laura and a blessing to watch
I am SO glad you showed the struggles! Roots, changed plans, and more roots! You got SO much done, and I can’t imagine the real time that took, vs. edited video time! The brick edging, removing the big blocks, and adding gravel was a big job! But did you stop there? Heck no. Digging up and replanting the evergreen was a big job! But did you stop there? Heck no. And then planting that maple was a big job! And then there was all the tubing leaks. And then you grabbbed mulch! Girl! You and Aaron deserve a long break and a glass of wine. Looks wonderful. I love how you keep everything tidy. It’s my new motto. “That doesn’t look tidy. We need to fix it”. 😊. Trust me, this is new territory, It will be good for me.
The bed looks wonderful. I know exactly what you mean by the garden spirit. When I'm asked what my plans are for the garden on any specific day, I always say that I have to wait until the spirit moves before I can say. That's my garden spirit speaking to my soul! Thanks for your inspiration.
My profuse appreciation that you show the issues you encounter and your solution process. This builds my confidence rather than making me feel incompetent when I encounter similar problems. You guys are amazing!
Totally got the "garden spirit thing" Many hours of peace to come musing over the changes made. Thank you Aaron for using the tools and braun to get the job done. Great couple!
I really didn't think changing them to brick would make that big of a difference but it definitely did. It looks fantastic! I also need some winter interest around my house and look forward to seeing your ideas on that
I really appreciate you showing how hard it was to dig through all of those roots. Almost every place I plant at my house is roots and rocks. And sometimes I feel so jealous when you quickly plant things lol. It looks gorgeous, great job!
You did such a good job with the bricks! It was meant to be - the tree looks perfect in that spot and screams for uplighting. Thank you for sharing your "garden spirit!" It is certainly contagious.
I identified with you on this project so much! It seems like sometimes it is ten times harder to do something than you think it will be. And the garden spirit! Yes! It lifts my garden spirit to get something done and I end up loving the result! I also loved Aaron's reaction to your edging. That warmed my heart. ❤
Wow, the ones you have already done look great! The ones you have done today look amazing also! You go girl! Your soil looks so nice. We live on a mountain in Tn. So our dirt is full of rocks, I mean full of rocks! There is only a few feet of soil on top of the Rocky Mountain. But I am working on getting my soil amended. Thanks for ALL your help!💞
What has helped us when planting tree's is my husband measures the depth of the pot and then measures the hole depth. Sometimes we need to dig few inches more or sometimes we need to add dirt back because it's too deep. Work's perfect every time. No more guessing or having to pull the heavy tree out to dig more or more dirt. Happy gardening. We too live on over 5 acres and this year we planned so many fruit tree's. This technique helped.
You and Aaron work so hard! Thank you for sharing it. I hope the "garden spirit" gets in my soul to carry me through all the spring projects facing us as well. It does feel amazing when things look so beautiful!
This area is special for me because this is the one that led me to you and your amazing channel. I really love how that maple looks there and those tulips are glorious glowing in the sun.
looks great, and it's almost "instant" gratification!! i think the new tree placement ended up being the best, and that blue spruce will look perfect in its new home... so fun to rearrange things and have it turn out as if it were meant to be!! love listening to the girls supervise you while you working around "their" garden :) time to relax after feeding your garden spirits, and yeah, i get that!
I’m always glad to see I’m not the only one who starts with two projects and ends up with 10!
I think that might ne every gardener!😅
Can Aaron come over and teach my husband how to have that reaction when I show him something I did in the yard? That was such a supportive, enthusiastic reaction Aaron had! My husband is almost there, but good for Aaron for supporting you in all you do!
Ya and then come to Lancaster,New York and teach my fiance that reaction hahaha😂😂😂😂
Same! Mine is like "oh no now what is she planting." 😂 He doesn't say it but you can see it in his eyes. Ha
Placing the maple in the spot where the spruce was, is definitely the better position! AND centering the fountain with the window will look great!! Thanks for showing the struggle with roots, etc... many videos would skip over that. It's refreshing to see REAL gardening, struggles and all😊🌱🌲
Definitely like the maple in that spot. I'm sure the hens will, too.
Have you thought of a fast growing vine to shade the West side of coop until the tree is large enough cast more shade?
@@sandykrage9351 Maple trees are wonderful shade or ornamental trees. Also may grow faster.
For the Love of Peat by Annie and Alissa hahah that’s so true! Roots in gardens are nightmare
I absolutely LOVE your content!
It is especially refreshing to see the interaction between you and Aaron!! So much respect and love is always shown!
I pray for God's continued blessings for your family!
Have a wonderful day!
Enjoy!!!
Tracy Bartley how true it that?! Her yard is next level
Sometimes an accidental change is better, the maple is perfect in that spot. Love the red brick edging and the pine looks lovely in the new spot too.
I love how supportive Aaron is! Laura's like "it's not perfect" and he shuts her right down lol! I'm with him... it looks really good! One of my favorite areas in your garden!
I love how real this video is! Sometimes project videos make things looks so easy and it always makes me feel like a haphazard gardener. You showed us how projects often develop. Gardening definitely teaches us patience, flexibility and the benefits of hard work. Thanks for another great video,
Yea thar is what I was thinking a lot of people make a video where everything is good, but we do not really see what goes into it. Or the lasting results
Look at Aaron digging that hole!! You go man!
The Maple tree looks perfect in its new home. Love, love, love your videos. No professional fluff, just reality in gardening, including the little hiccups along the way. Thank you!
I think the new tree is perfect there. It would be fun to see how your friend reused the gray pavers in her garden.
MERCY LAWD! You guys did that! Aaron's joy at the opportunity to use the auger was priceless. Great work y'all!!!
'Garden spirit' is what you are sprinkling in the world with your videos.
This video lifted my garden spirit today! I am getting so much more done in my yard this spring than I have the last 3 springs in this home because of the quarantine.

Lili Maza keep going! You’ll get there, that’s probably the most rewarding part about gardens.
Lili Maza I honestly started gardening 5 years ago and now I have an entire TH-cam channel dedicated to gardening. I absolutely love it & Laura was my inspiration
I'm impressed with this gale's energy. She can get it done and Aaron is so kind and gentle. Love them both. Lovely couple
Your daily morning videos have been lifting my spirits. Thank you.
Just watching your videos lifts my garden spirit!! Using double screen while shopping for brick pavers! 😁
I’m watching these videos from Canada zone 3 and I’m green with envy 😂 pun intended
May your garden spirits always be high and plentiful🧚🏻👒 each and every season🌷🌴🍁🌲.
I know it has been said many times before, but there should be a Garden Answer magazine to show all of your good ideas and projects!!❤️
I could maby be a online magazine.
Meg G Yes please.
I know that it would be a huge project but maybe a quarterly/seasonal magazine. I would definitely have to devote an entire shelf, or two or three to keep them all! I usually only tear out the articles/pictures I like, but Aaron takes the most beautiful pictures of Laura’s amazing projects that it would only be right to keep the whole magazine together and collect them. ❤️
Hard copy photos w text.
What an encouragement to see y’all problem solve.
Rebecca Wood Bixler I agree, and what a nice thing to say!
Madison D McLean thank you. 😊
I like the maple there best. I need an Aaron, smart husband giving you props for the edging, I love to see it!.
Laura I love how that turned out, I agree that in the end that was a better spot to put the maple, and the evergreen looks great in it’s new location as well. Good call!😊
I absolutely understand "garden spirit" it's how we were created in the beginning, to "tend the garden"..so for many if us it's the most satisfying work! Love it, what a workout!💪❤

Laura- my back hurts just from watching you. You did A LOT of work today and it is beautiful! The bricks look wonderful.
Haha aaron was just excited to use his auger! His excitement made me smile!!

Looks good guys. Aaron was SO excited to be able to use his auger. 😊. Boys with their toys.
Watching this lifts my garden spirit! A rainy day means I'm watching Garden Answer videos all day!🥰🌷🐱
This is exactly how every single one of my “simple projects” goes!
You two are amazing ☺️❤️
The Maple tree will be beautiful and it's in just the RIGHT spot!
Please keep it there.
It will be lovely as it shades the fountain during the summers ~ the water will be a welcoming sound right there.

Ur Husband Is such a SWEET 💓 MAN 💙 UR SO LUCKY!!!!! He's a Awesome DAD and A AMAZING HUSBAND!!!! GOD BLESS 🙏 U THREE! BEAUTIFUL FAMILY!!!
Speaking of "garden spirit" 😉, what part of your garden gives you the most joy? Where you hang out, have fun or relax? Love the garden vlogs.
Good question, I was just thinking the same thing!
I am exhausted just watching your video!! LOL The space looks great!
Oh gees the mulch really set it off, and I must say the tree looks heaps better planted where you ended planting it Laura ... job well done. 👍🏼
I am SO glad you showed the struggles! Roots, changed plans, and more roots! You got SO much done, and I can’t imagine the real time that took, vs. edited video time! The brick edging, removing the big blocks, and adding gravel was a big job! But did you stop there? Heck no. Digging up and replanting the evergreen was a big job! But did you stop there? Heck no.

Oh! I couldn’t see it! I honestly was thinking it doesn’t look bad with the pavers but the brick DOES look better! Very sweet!
I know this sounds bad, but I love watching when your plans don't work out. I'm just glad to know that it's not just me. Thanks, Laura.
The bed looks wonderful. I know exactly what you mean by the garden spirit. When I'm asked what my plans are for the garden on any specific day, I always say that I have to wait until the spirit moves before I can say. That's my garden spirit speaking to my soul! Thanks for your inspiration.
Im almost certain that there’s nothing you couldn’t do with your determination. Such an inspiration!
I just love hearing the chickens! What a relaxing sound to start the day with. Thanks, Laura and Aaron!
Laura, your gardens are so beautiful, but I'm envious of your perfectly straight edged, smooth, no grass, gravel driveway. I can dream!
Beautiful area! The maple creates the perfect balance in this planter. 👍
I love the way Aaron was so pleased with all your brick work. You guys work so hard, hope you have a restful evening.
My profuse appreciation that you show the issues you encounter and your solution process. This builds my confidence rather than making me feel incompetent when I encounter similar problems. You guys are amazing!
Totally got the "garden spirit thing" Many hours of peace to come musing over the changes made. Thank you Aaron for using the tools and braun to get the job done. Great couple!
I love hearing the chickens while you were digging the hole.
I think you are really going to be so glad the maple was put in the middle! Everything looks beautiful!
Oh Laura! Your gardens are always beautiful. Every bed has its own special touch and they are just gorgeous.
Beautiful spot in your enormous garden.
The best garden videos on TH-cam hands down🎉👏👍🌲🌸🌺
Laura,
You are too funny! I agree I like how the bed turned out at least for now...just like life ever changing💚 Have a lovely day🌷🌻
Love how supportive Aaron is! You guys make a great team!
Oh wow. That's how my projects usually go. Nothing is ever as easy as it should be. Good job!!!
Looks good for temporary. Always nice to have a new home for things you don't want anymore. Tree fits perfectly.
You are the busiest most productive person I’ve ever seen
I really didn't think changing them to brick would make that big of a difference but it definitely did. It looks fantastic! I also need some winter interest around my house and look forward to seeing your ideas on that
I really appreciate you showing how hard it was to dig through all of those roots. Almost every place I plant at my house is roots and rocks. And sometimes I feel so jealous when you quickly plant things lol. It looks gorgeous, great job!
Absolutely love the changes you made here, that Japanese maple will eventually give the shade you need for the chickens.
You did such a good job with the bricks! It was meant to be - the tree looks perfect in that spot and screams for uplighting. Thank you for sharing your "garden spirit!" It is certainly contagious.
I identified with you on this project so much! It seems like sometimes it is ten times harder to do something than you think it will be. And the garden spirit! Yes! It lifts my garden spirit to get something done and I end up loving the result! I also loved Aaron's reaction to your edging. That warmed my heart. ❤
Yes, you have woken up my garden spirit, Laura! I'm headed to the back to dig up the tree seedlings around my fence line
We have the same problem. Roots roots roots from old trees that have been removed. Looks great.
i just love watching your videos!!
your channel is like an encyclopedia for gardening!!
That last hole was a workout. I have been moving a lot of things myself and digging lots of holes, sleeping great is the reward!
Whoooo.....today's work lots of muscle effort...hard work...
Thanks for sharing...❤💖💝
The placement of the tree looks lovely to me. I love trees in the middle of beds with an understory of pretty things surrounding them.
Aaron is so nice! So much enthusiasm for your projects! 😍 thanks for sharing your garden and knowledge with us 😍
You are an amazing young woman tackling projects like these yourself, I envy your age and determination! 🌸
Wow, the ones you have already done look great! The ones you have done today look amazing also! You go girl!
Your soil looks so nice. We live on a mountain in Tn. So our dirt is full of rocks, I mean full of rocks! There is only a few feet of soil on top of the Rocky Mountain. But I am working on getting my soil amended. Thanks for ALL your help!💞

Thanks for sharing so happy to see you together in the garden ....love it look very nice good job had enjoy the video 😀🤗
Love the new tree there. Awesome job on laying the brick at the edge.
Yes! I totally understand the motivation-garden-spirit feeling! It looks so pretty!
The Maple Tree looks great in that location. It is a peaceful garden. I love the Garden Spirit💕💜
Well done!! Projects at times don't work exactly as we plan, but change to the better in the long run. Love how you adjust an improvise on the spot.
You and Aaron work so hard! Thank you for sharing it. I hope the "garden spirit" gets in my soul to carry me through all the spring projects facing us as well. It does feel amazing when things look so beautiful!
You and Aron make it seem so easy. I get exhausted doing a bit at a time. You guys are awesome!!!
Love everything about your coop...lucky chickens!
This area is special for me because this is the one that led me to you and your amazing channel. I really love how that maple looks there and those tulips are glorious glowing in the sun.
Really like where the new tree went in - well placed! As well as the evergreen in the other garden bed! Both look good in their new homes.
Wow, girl! We will live vicariously through you!!! I was sweating just watching this!!! Looks wonderful!
looks great, and it's almost "instant" gratification!! i think the new tree placement ended up being the best, and that blue spruce will look perfect in its new home... so fun to rearrange things and have it turn out as if it were meant to be!! love listening to the girls supervise you while you working around "their" garden :) time to relax after feeding your garden spirits, and yeah, i get that!
Such a huge difference and Aaron is right, it looks amazing! Turned out beautiful!
I’m so glad you have all necessary equipment and pt for upkeep/maintenance.
I love when you edge and plant! So satisfying!
I am so inspired every time I watch one of your videos.
Beautiful. I loved how excited Aaron got when he asked if he could use his auger lol!!
I could just get lost walking around your property and taking in all the beauty you and your husband have planted.
Team work! 🤗 Looks great! 😍 I loved at one point in the video you can hear the chickens in the background 😍 Garden spirits❤🥀🌳🌹🌸
Looks so much better! All the hard work was definitely worth it! 🙌♥️💚🌿🌳🌷
It does look so much cleaner! Love the tree placement! Thanks for sharing.🌞
looks like it was a gorgeous day!
Maple Trees have always been one of my favorites! It looks absolutely stunning wit your beautiful landscaping!
Your videos are such a joy. I feel like my garden struggles and work are the same! It is truly garden spirit.
