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 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.
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 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
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
May your garden spirits always be high and plentiful🧚🏻👒 each and every season🌷🌴🍁🌲.
I like the maple there best. I need an Aaron, smart husband giving you props for the edging, I love to see it!.
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.
Your daily morning videos have been lifting my spirits. Thank you.
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!!!
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 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
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!😊
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!
Looks good guys. Aaron was SO excited to be able to use his auger. 😊. Boys with their toys.
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!
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!
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.
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!!!!
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. 👍🏼
The best garden videos on TH-cam hands down🎉👏👍🌲🌸🌺
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.
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!
'Garden spirit' is what you are sprinkling in the world with your videos.
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.💞
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.
Look at Aaron digging that hole!! You go man!
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
Looks good for temporary. Always nice to have a new home for things you don't want anymore. Tree fits perfectly.
I am exhausted just watching your video!! LOL The space looks great!
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 the way Aaron was so pleased with all your brick work. You guys work so hard, hope you have a restful evening.
Laura, your gardens are so beautiful, but I'm envious of your perfectly straight edged, smooth, no grass, gravel driveway. I can dream!
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!
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
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 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!💪❤
Amen!
Team work! 🤗 Looks great! 😍 I loved at one point in the video you can hear the chickens in the background 😍 Garden spirits❤🥀🌳🌹🌸
Watching this lifts my garden spirit! A rainy day means I'm watching Garden Answer videos all day!🥰🌷🐱
MERCY LAWD! You guys did that! Aaron's joy at the opportunity to use the auger was priceless. Great work y'all!!!
This is exactly how every single one of my “simple projects” goes!
You two are amazing ☺️❤️
Hi Laura and Aaron! As Aaron said, the bricks look really good. No matter what you do, it always looks nice, and better than before. It's too bad the maple wouldn't work where you wanted it, but like you said, I think it's better where you ended up planting it. The spot you put the spruce in is perfect! The fountain will look really nice centered in front of the window. When you were digging the hole for the maple it sounded like the girls were cheering you on. LOL! I'm sure you will find some pretty plants/shrubs to add interest in that area. I can't wait to see what you find. It's always nice seeing the two of you working together. It was so much fun seeing Aaron get so excited about using the auger. That was a good buy, and so was the Gator! Thank you so much for sharing this!
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!💞
Whoooo.....today's work lots of muscle effort...hard work...
Thanks for sharing...❤💖💝
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
Im almost certain that there’s nothing you couldn’t do with your determination. Such an inspiration!
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. 😊
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🌷🌻
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.
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.
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.
I’m watching these videos from Canada zone 3 and I’m green with envy 😂 pun intended
Beautiful area! The maple creates the perfect balance in this planter. 👍
The pallet walkway makes my heart happy. I know you said you don't let people photograph in your yard but you should let one bride do it JUST one.
Love the new tree there. Awesome job on laying the brick at the edge.
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 think you are really going to be so glad the maple was put in the middle! Everything looks beautiful!
I think the new tree is perfect there. It would be fun to see how your friend reused the gray pavers in her garden.
Thanks for sharing so happy to see you together in the garden ....love it look very nice good job had enjoy the video 😀🤗
I LOVE your garden spirit, Laura! And I agree with Aaron....you did a great job on the edging!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
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. ❤
Here is 👏👏👏👏 for Arron for giving a awesome response to a job well done, we all know chaps who sometimes don't. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh wow. That's how my projects usually go. Nothing is ever as easy as it should be. Good job!!!
Just watching your videos lifts my garden spirit!! Using double screen while shopping for brick pavers! 😁
Laura- my back hurts just from watching you. You did A LOT of work today and it is beautiful! The bricks look wonderful.
Such a huge difference and Aaron is right, it looks amazing! Turned out beautiful!
Perfection! Center on window! The fountain! Fabulous!
I think the brick edging turned out great! And yes, finishing projects does lift my garden spirit. I just finished raking needles and leaves from my beds to discover the bleeding heart, sedum, garden phlox, peonies, clematis among other things that are busting out of the earth in our zone 4 weather. Makes me so happy! Oh, and I think the both trees look great in their new homes. Big tree roots are the worst :(
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.
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.
When you give plants to a friend let them come help you and we can hear you chat like we enjoy when your mother is with you.
Looks so much better! All the hard work was definitely worth it! 🙌♥️💚🌿🌳🌷
I just love hearing the chickens! What a relaxing sound to start the day with. Thanks, Laura and Aaron!
It is the garden spirit! I call it my garden Zen 😂 loved this video. Hardscaping always seems so daunting, but sometimes it doesn't take much to make a huge difference. And the maple looks much better in it's new spot!
Aaron is so nice! So much enthusiasm for your projects! 😍 thanks for sharing your garden and knowledge with us 😍
It would be great if you could do a video on how to start a nursery/garden centre with your parents. Would be glad if you could share your experiences about how it all started and all that you had to do/deal with. Your garden centre is really an inspiration to many of us here! Thank you!❤
A relief to know it is sometimes alright to use a temporary fix and make it look good. Especially in the spring, projects are backing up as the season is upon us, then a slow time arrives and it is nice to have a project to go back to and take more time with. Actually, your brick edging looks really good as it is!
It does look so much cleaner! Love the tree placement! Thanks for sharing.🌞
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 love where you ended up placing the maple tree!!🌳🌳🌳 Can't wait to see what you end up adding to this area.🌷🌱🌹🌱🌼
I love how that area turned out so far! It's a joy seeing you and Aaron working together on certain projects! I think the tree is better there than on the edge, so that worked out! I have experienced the problem with remaining tree roots in an area after removing a tree, so I get that!😉❤
I’m so glad you have all necessary equipment and pt for upkeep/maintenance.
Beautiful. I loved how excited Aaron got when he asked if he could use his auger lol!!
Loved seeing the 2 of you working together
On camera....
🌿🌸🌿
Oh Laura! Your gardens are always beautiful. Every bed has its own special touch and they are just gorgeous.
You are an amazing young woman tackling projects like these yourself, I envy your age and determination! 🌸
I could just get lost walking around your property and taking in all the beauty you and your husband have planted.
Yes! I totally understand the motivation-garden-spirit feeling! It looks so pretty!
That was satisfying to watch!! Great job Laura and Aron!👍☀️
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
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 are so fortunate to have such wonderful soil. I so enjoy just watching you dig down and not hit subsoil. I'm in Tennessee and have hard, red clay just a few inches below the surface and just cannot ever go out and dig a hole to plant anything. To plant you must first dig and then amend the soil tremendously just to give plants a fighting chance. You are so lucky!
I really enjoyed this video. You showed us so much detailed stuff that goes on when transforming a flower bed . Cutting out the pot for the tree with that tool( I’ve never used one of those) , digging out that deep hole for both trees with the auger ( I’ve never used one of those either), laying and repairing the drip tubes...you did it all here!
Love Aaron's and his augar!!! I think the tree placement looks better in that spot!! What a difference to with the new pavers!! So much better!!
Hi Laura, I'm a faithful viewer, and I've learned so much from you. I'm addressing your zucchini squash bug problem last year. I watch Wisconsin Garden video blog as well and they try to do organic gardening especially in their veggie beds, and they have had success with controlling squash bugs. What they do is stick dill stems in and amongst their squash plants because squash bugs hate the smell of dill. You could give this a try and see if it works. It would make a good video with a later update to see if it works.🤗
Dianne Hasse what zone is Wisconsin?
Gardening In Canada, Zone five, so is Michigan. I live close to Lake St Clair and the area I live in is zone 5/6 because of the water way. If you live in the area of Ontario, close to the water and In between Lake Erie and Lake Huron, I'm sure it would be the same for you. The rest of Michigan is a firm zone 5.
Looks great! I use a pick mattock when digging in a rooted area (which is most of my digging), makes quick work of those roots, less hands and knees work too.
Your irrigation skills are impressive. You encourage me. I totally rely on my husband for doing and fixing our irrigation system, but he’s often occupied with more important stuff. I think with your videos and instruction from him, I could get there. Love your channel❤️ keep up the great work! 🤗
