    I had to pause this video to say I love Susan so much. Every girl should have such a beautiful, awesome, supportive & fun mother like her. Laura & Monica are so blessed to have her.

      Ya, she reminds me of my mom. She passed in 2017, I miss her so much and when I see Laura's videos with her mom it makes me miss her more. I wish we could have one more shopping trip, one more coffee or tea 😔. Time with loved ones is so precious 💗

    If our family owned this garden center and we saw Laura and Susan of “Garden Answer” walk through the door- we would wet our pants!
    It’s so nice that y’all spread the love and shop small, shop local, shop family!
    As a small family owned business in a tiny town I can tell you that doing this makes a huge difference. Amazon won’t notice and won’t care- no matter how much spend- but a small business will be so grateful!

    Isn't Susan the best? I made a trip to Andrews Seed in April and was fortunate to meet Susan and Monica. When I asked Susan if I could take a picture of her, she said, "Let's both be in it" and proceeded to ask another customer to take the picture. Truly a beautiful person inside and out. BTW, I was noticing in this video how much Susan and Laura's walk are the same. I think we all agree this is the best way to start any day!

    Love your shopping trips with your mom Laura. The beautiful pot @2.46 is a bonsai tray and the 4 holes surrounding the central one are for tieing the bonsai plant with wire as the tray is very shallow. You place the plant in the tray, put the wires through the holes from underneath and then tie them up making a cross and voila, the plant is stable. Now you can put soil and hide the wires.

    So happy to see you with your mom shopping!. The beautiful flowers along the road reminded me of my Granny. Whenever corn, hay or tobacco planting time came around, G-pop would plow extra rows all along the road for her flowers. Hundreds of feet of flowers lined the roads on 2 sides and it was magic. When we were little, any time we made the summer trip from the city to their farm, we always knew we had arrived when we'd see the flowers in the distance. Great memories!

      I don't know how you guys can handle 108°F. Here in Canada when it gets 30°C (86°F) I'm dying and don't want to leave the air conditioning 😄. We also get quite a bit of humidity though so maybe that makes a difference. I remember one day last month it got to 100% humidity. And when we get a few days of rain and the temperature doesn't drop it gets so muggy you sweat just standing still.

    I don't know if anyone noticed but, when they turned the corner at that house with the pretty flowers they made two beautiful butterflies with their antennas sticking out. Absolutely beautiful and beautiful yard! Loved this whole video!! A day with Laura and her mom Susan is like a day in the warm sunshine!

    Balloon Flowers are in my top 5 list of flowers I love. They can get taller than what the top height says on the tag and you cut them down for a second set of blooms. The only thing that is annoying about them is that the spent blooms are somewhat unsightly. It's the veining on the bloom that is breathtaking. Antique, Candy, and Nursery Shops are the best. 💙💙💚💚💛💛 Sweet video.

      Mine get so tall. That they flop over and I don’t care for that. Can I cut them down before they bloom to keep them more mounded? I’m afraid they won’t bloom if I do.

    From my insomnia TH-cam rabbit hole binges, I have learned that the 4 small holes in the Bonsai pottery is because you root prune the bonsai so much and have so little planting medium that the actual Bonsai tree wouldn't stay. So you use thick steel wire to secure it to the pot in a criss cross pattern and wire it to the pot and then cover with moss so you don't see the wire. Quite fascinating and such a different way of doing it. I watched this Japanese Bonsai master that's based in the UK and got a TH-cam channel. WHO would ever think I might know a little plant related factoid to share to the masters of Garden Answer! Love you both!

    All that I can say right now is that it just warms my soul to watch Laura and her mom go shopping for plants and antiques. Reminds me so much of my mom and I. She’s gone now but I think she would love that I still get to watch a great mom and daughter enjoy each other’s company ❤❤❤

    I could watch you and your Mum walk through garden centers every day! It's so interesting to see what you look at, and you're both just happy, positive people! I think you should do a "tour" come winter, go visit a warm place and tour the garden centers!

It's such a joy to watch you and your mom. I'm sure both she and you treasure your time together. Cherish every moment ❤️. God bless both of you.

    I know the owner of a local restaurant and she always frequents the other restaurants and bars in the area. I love how she treats them as colleagues, not competitors. During the pandemic, she was cheering them on, sharing their daily specials, etc. I think it’s great to be supportive (yes, I realize they were a little bit away from their town).

  • @dabblingwithbonsai

    Such pretty bonsai pots! The one at 02:48 is for a penjing or a forest planting, very pretty! Aaron would could go nuts in planting a small evergreen forest in it with moss floor... 💚💚💚

    Andrews needs to put a sign on the strawberry plants, "nice to watch and nice to hold, if you eat it we mark it SOLD"

    • @dianequist835

    • @yorkie75
      @yorkie75 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I could understand a small child standing and eating all of the strawberries and an adult maybe being unable to resist picking just one but stealing them all is just rude. 😠

    • @ritasicari7518
      @ritasicari7518 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      A true adult would realize that if every adult took "just one" that they would still all be picked off. A true adult would know that's stealing and would not do it.

    I love that you and your mom take those shopping trips like that. I use to do that with one of my sisters and my mom. Unfortunately my sister had passed a couple of years ago, and my mom has now moved to WA. Every time I see you with your sister, andor mom, it brings glorious memories of our time we spent together. Thank you for sharing.

    What a fun day spending it with us mom!!! The place you went to first... what a hidden gem!!! I like the spruce (don't remember the name) where the branches were long and a poof of evergreen (looking like a flower) at the end. I'm surprised you didn't get one.

    Seeing how well your garden did with all the extra rain this year, will you run your drip longer or more often next year? I have been watching almost daily since I was a teen and you were at your old house 🙂 thanks for all the knowledge you share!
