What girl wouldn’t want a bouquet of flowers like that. Beautiful ❤ Douglas is very much at home laying on the porch.
I love how the kids are so into gardening as well! 😊
That's how i was with my dad. He has since passed, but it's in my blood now
I like the idea of one tree closer to the fire pit and leave the other side empty. If you go with a nice large shade tree you’ll get a bit more of a natural vibe “outside” the Hartley and Brick patio area!
I think you’re right, from an aesthetic perspective it would be more natural and less contrived. There’s already so much formality. This way would balance the yard perfectly.
I agree. It would look more natural with just one tree on the side by the fireplace area. There is so much going on in this space. Whatever you choose will be beautiful in the end.
I thought a leaf canopy near the fireplace are while an evergreen on the other side would gently frame the Hartley and not feel that contrivance. Lovely all around.
Douglas has really started following you around just like his ginger "brothers"...🐈🐈🐈⬛. Are you wearing catnip Laura? :)))...Just so sweet that Benjamin made his own bouquet💐 :)))
Laura the cat lady..3 and counting..
@@davidhatfield5714 Is it theres or a neighbours?
@@davidhebb9480 as far as I know #3 Douglas just showed up
I love your relationship with Benjamin! Your take the time to explain things to him. His answers makes me laugh and sometimes I think Wow what a very smart little boy! Keep up the good work! The arrangement is beautiful! Also Benjamin arrangement! God Bless!❤😊
I love her tenderness but also just how she gives him respect to be him ❤❤
Have to agree with Aaron. Reshaping that grass by hand is hard labor. Having the ability to take it out will give you possibilities you hadn't imaged. Having watched your videos for sometime, I know Laura is a visual person. So #teamnograss That being said... I think a hydrangea hedge would be beautiful😅 I just imagine a georgous mass of puffy blooms leading you to the greenhouse. Magical. I think whatever you decide will be as lovely as the rest of your property is. As Laura says "if you don't love it, it's okay to remove it". 🌳
Incredible video today Laura. Your kindness is infectious. I am a better person by doing things like Laura would.
What an enormous compliment! 😁
“WWLD” !!!!!
I agree. After watching Laura and especially Laura with her mom, Susan, I find myself smiling and being kinder to those around me.
Benjamin is so cute when he says it's ready to go!! ❤
I heard "ready to roll"? either way, it's adorable how happy he is popping in and out of videos and doing his own little projects.
So productive everyday!, I’m inspired!
that moment in particular when Laura caught him trying to sneak up on her, he looks so much like her! so cute❤
☕️Good morning Laura, Benjamin and GA friends. What a lovely wispy arrangement, Laura, I would be honored to receive such a beautiful sentiment. I can tell, he is a lovely young man to request a bouquet from you! So amazing how you lay out or plan your spaces. Vi would be way overwhelmed. It’s all coming along and each day with you brings more beauty and blessings to so many. Enjoy a great garden day everyone 💚🌼🐝
Good morning from Ireland 🇮🇪
Good evening from Australia.nearly bedtime in Melbourne.
Good morning from Columbus, Ohio.
Hallo aus Deutschland
Good morning from Oologah Oklahoma
We visited Ireland in the spring of 2019 (pre the pandemic), and it was a glorious trip.
I am LOVING the 30+ minute shows! I really love the puttering around the garden doing random projects. Right up my alley!
Thank you for explaining your planning process: Laura & Aaron's collaboration is as beautiful as their garden!
Transitioning the area outside the kitchen to a bistro set up was a fabulous idea.
Hi laura, love the arrangement, what a sweet gesture from that young man and also from you to offer your artistic services. About the sketch, i think instead of the two big trees you might want to use evergreens that are on the wispy fluffy side so they don't block the gorgeous hartley view, and swap where you intended to plant the evergreen with the big tree just in case you may lose the other tree canopy. Can't wait to see how the space will evolve. Ps: please try to save as many roses as you can near the fireplace 😢especially the iceberg , they are a marvel❤❤
I love your ideas for the furniture placement. It’s going to be amazing ❤
Laura: just a simple, pretty arrangement… gives a work of art 💕
Oh my 😊😊😊 I'm loving this space even more. 🌿🌼🌸🌿🌿👏👏👏💜 Douglas is becoming more loving. He wants to be around all the time 😻😻😻
Good Morning! 💐 What a beautiful boutique!! Benjamin & Samantha are having so much fun riding their bikes on the brick walkway!! I like those plans! I love being in on the start of projects! Love that bistro set! 😃🤔🥰🪻🌹🌼💚🌿
Love seeing your thought process for future projects and seeing the two of you think things through ❤ the new outdoor seating bistro set seems perfect for breakfast in summer.
I think Aaron has a point about tearing out the lawn and starting fresh from scratch. He’s so good at that and has had quite a bit of success. The result in the long run will be an easier time of installing irrigation and a uniform lawn where the leveling imperfections can be fixed.
If you decide on shade trees, may I suggest for consideration horse chestnut. There are several varieties to choose from that come in varying sizes. From extremely large, medium and small. They have beautiful flower spikes for a couple of weeks in the spring and produce beautiful mahogany colored “buckeyes ” that can be used in crafting. Fall and flower colors vary depending on variety, and they are tolerant of high to low PH. I know they do well in your area, but in my opinion are under utilized. I think Aaron would like the ginormous ones maybe in a more open part of the property.
Meanwhile, everything you’ve done looks so GOOD and you guys should be so proud.
Benjamin is growing into such a wonderful young man!!! Also must bust your button with pride. 💚💚💚
I think your layout by the Hartley is going to be lovely. Shade trees are always a good choice. The remaining lawn area would make a perfect croquet pitch.
I just love the outdoor furniture. Is Douglas a permanent resident now? He's joined the family just like Cheddar did. Haven't seen a lot of Russell lately. He probably doesn't like the fact that Douglas is taking over as the kitty who follows Laura around in the garden. 😀😼🌿
I was wondering the same about Russell not being in the picture as much.
Rows of wheat add such a beautiful, flowing softness to the flower garden. Just gorgeous.
Loved everything about this video, and I found myself drooling over your beautiful hydrangeas😍 is it me or is Benjamin getting taller by the minute? It’s an amazing thing to watch him evolve into a sweet young man!🩵
Love all the ideas and that was a beautiful arrangement you made. Have a beautiful week.
Thank you for showing us your process. That was so informative. The Carlisle style furniture is perfect. Everything is so tasteful & cohesive. Just beautifully done.
P.S. I think your signature black attire is your best look. Good job, Laura.
Good morning, most beautiful family owned garden in America!
Your patio furniture is gorgeous and what a lovely peaceful spot to sit under the shade of that beautiful tree. Perfection 😍
I enjoy your “randomness”. It’s a different perspective of your garden area. The new placement of the furniture looks so peaceful-great place to sit early morning with your coffee.
I love seeing your thought process on how things will be done. Great idea Aaron on taking out all the grass and starting over. Laura, the flower garden is absolutely gorgeous.
Will the yellow blooms stain your new cushions? Love what you have done with the space.
I don’t understand why chairs under that tree would be a good idea. Constantly dropping a mess! Not a good place to sit.
Very helpful! Thanks for the placement of the furniture too. I was wondering how that was all going to shake out. It's a lot of work, but your property has so many fun areas! I like the idea of med conical instead of the shade trees on either side although I realize you want to cut the sun a bit on that side. Hard decision. Happy Gardening!
I can’t with Benjamin! Omg.. he is so so adorable!
“Wheat is ready to go”! ..lol
You two are raising such wonderful children.
Love the walk through of ideas for the new grass area! I think you should just plant one shade tree on the left and leave openness on the right as you are looking at the Hartley. Two trees would seem too formal for this area and you already have enough formality around Hartley. Also if you plant one shade tree you will have the weight of it plus the weight of the willow on the other side. Informal visual balance. You gardens are really becoming beautiful!
Lots of projects up ahead...i think planning, mapping, walking, looking high, looking low is a great begining - as well as avoiding problems you also can plan for water, sprinklers, lighting and all around things that you want to go right🤷fun video, love the furniture!
Consider putting a hard rubber wheeled, sturdy but pretty bar cart right by your kitchen door. I did, and now I load up the cart with plates, flatware, glasses, food, napkins, S&P, etc. and wheel it down walks and even across grass to eat lunch or dinner anywhere. It makes dining al fresco so easy and clean up and "carry in" even easier.
Oh! In your remaining grass area I hope you will put in a croquet lawn. Soooo perfect right off the Hartly and of course it's great family fun for all generations. Just sharing my memories, I am certain whatever you design will be wonderful 😊
What a fun idea!
Beautiful arrangement. She will be thrilled.
I’m hoping that whatever the rain tree drops, it won’t stain your beautiful cushions. That set looks beautiful there, and the bistro set by the kitchen door is perfect!
Hi Laura,
May I suggest something? If you can buy additional umbrella covers for the centre of your bistro table, please consider it. It’s a small piece that can be lost easily. Once a line of furniture is discontinued, it will be almost impossible to find them to match your set. I hope this is helpful.
Such a pretty flower arrangement Laura! It is so cute how Douglas follows you around just like Russell.🥰 Your Bistro set is perfect in that location and your lounging set looks great on the new patio!
Absolutely gorgeous arrangement. She will love i! Just made him some points. Benjamin is becoming a wonderful garden guy. Mom... hope you didn't move his wheat. Lol😅
Loved the video and love to see the kids enjoying the outdoors and that beautiful space.❤️❤️❤️
I definitely appreciate your sharing the thought process. I have learned so much from your channel. Planning and then changing your approach is also just fine. That's new for me. I always felt I had to know exactly what to do and then, there were no changes after installing/planting, etc. You have shown me that it's okay and perfectly fine to change anything completely , however you want to change. I love this! Thank you!
Your flowers are so beautiful! It would be lovely to watch a slower pace video of closeup shots of all your flowers and the different vistas of your garden with music so we can really appreciate all the beauty of your garden!❤
White hebe are a great evergreen flowering bush that looks great as a hedge, if you can leave it without trimming !!!
The reshaping of by the Hartley looks great! I guess the path to the grass may depend on what you do on the grass eg do you always just walk to it with out carrying stuff out / do the kids take/ride toys that may need something a bit more flat and continuous for wheels?
I was just thinking to myself the other day how I wished I could see your beautiful flower arrangements. I’m not in Instagram, and I know you share those on there. And here it is! Thank you, Laura, for including it in a video. It turned out gorgeous and I’m sure she’ll love it. Also, I just love random projects together that show different areas. It’s like a mini garden tour, without being a full tour. I love your furniture choices!! Can’t wait to see the redo of the grass area progress.
Good morning!!!!
I love the walkway and how you have designed it. Will look lovely like the rest of your property. Curious what plant is in the terra cotta pots in the Hartley?
Love the neutral white cushions! IMHO, the sidewalk from porch to Hartley needs to swerve more heavily near the porch over to your paint line leading to Hartley. I love all the design discussion!
I love seeing the kids so active outside. That's how I grew up but these days it's not as common.
You should scotch guard your cushions in case the kids do spill something on them, it works very well!
Typically not necessary for outdoor fabrics, they're pretreated to be water and stain resistant.
Always a pleasure watching whatever you do. Loved the flower arrangement. Love seeing your precious children. Your garden furniture is beautiful! You have great taste! Thank you for being a very important part of my day ❤
Oh my goodness that cut flower garden is so dreamy 😊
Love the furniture placement!! Wow gorgeous!!
I love seeing the process of creating a new space. Also your family friends are so blessed by your generosity. I’m sure that young man had a fantastic date.
Your property is so beautiful. Enjoy the variety of making the whole areas come together. The bones are as important as the plants/trees. Thank you for sharing whatever you do.
Plant a shade tree only on the left side looking towards the Hartley. Leave the other side more open.
Why don't you use those seedlings to plant more of those tree for free? You have plenty of space.
Laura you’re in trouble now I noticed how your son loves RED in his color choices 😳❤️
i read a study way back when, where they found that men love red and women do not. Men will be drawn to the color, where women will often respond hostile to it. interesting....🧐
@@21shalimarI hate red roses but love red geraniums…go figure.
Good morning! 🌻🐝
How adorable is he. “Yeah that one’s ready to roll!” 🥰
Benjamin, such a sweet boy. Love how he enjoys being in the garden with you.
If that honey locust tree doesn’t fully recover and gets removed in the future what tree do you have in mind to put in its spot? Another multi trunk birch to mirror the tree in the front of the house would look nice! Then when the ash tree gets removed add in another redbud 💕😍
Hi Laura, I’ve been watching your channel for years now. Out of curiosity, I’m wondering if you would share your channels average demographic ? Keep up the good work team, you guys are awesome !!!
Love, love , love the table/chairs and seating you picked out! Gorgeous! 👍
This was awesome!!! Having gone through this process (on a MUCH smaller scale) I totally appreciate seeing you and Aaron walking through it. I’ve even had my husband fly up his drone so I could see from above to help make sense but never got to the step of drawing right on the image. So helpful! Love being friends with you guys!! 😂😍
I’m wondering if you put a fountain where you have the circle bed inside the patio will the tree with the yellow blooms be a problem for the fountain? It all looks beautiful 🌹🌼🪻🌺🌷🌸
Maybe put a couple of large pots where you are thinking about putting the 2 big shade trees to “live” with it a bit. The shade trees do sound like a better option than the 2 pillar type evergreens the shade sounds like the most important reason for the trees. Thank you for taking us along for the process. Hopefully our comments will help and not hamper the decision process.
Beautiful whimsical arrangement 😊
Is that golden rain tree going to drop it “stuff” on those white cushions and is it going to stain the cushions if it rains or bakes on in the heat???
Uuu... lavender 🪻 please. I would loved seeing it coming into shape. White Hartley n purple lavender. That would be beautiful
The flower arrangement is Beautiful! I Love how Benjamin is getting more involved with helping you, he is so sweet. I remember when you and Aaron moved into the house and where y’all started with the landscape, it has grown and involved sooo much.
Does the rain tree have pollen that will stain the chairs? I love the lanterns, but it does look like such a mess with the petals
What about two ornamental plums on the south side of the Hartley? I think the dark foliage would look great against the white of the greenhouse and they are stunning in spring
Love seeing your process from the planning stages. Douglas seems to be your shadow 😻
Couldn't you plant one of those little rain tree sprouts somewhere else in your garden and have another one to enjoy in about 20 years 😂
Hey, love the furniture! Will the fallen blooms of the raintree stain the cushions when it rains? Eeeeek! Hope not!
morning from nashville ga.usa
What an awesome video…. Loved seeing the start of another beautiful space! The furniture is perfect! What fun watching the kids on their bikes!
Aw, it's going to be beautiful 😍 I love it! Aaron is right, might as well remove the grass put in the sprinklers and then seed. To reshape it's going to be a beast of a job! Can't wait for what is going to happen! Kids make everything worthwhile! ❤🤗❤️
The randomness is what we all do, so no worries. 😊 I enjoyed seeing your thought process with a new space. The rain tree is majestic and the petals dropping look like a new mulch design. Will those petals stain your seat cushions? Also, something to consider if you were thinking about a fountain in the center of your brick area.
Morning Everyone 🍃🌸🍃
Hey love all your videos😊 so I've heard you say before that you don't want any views blocked of the Hartley, so I was thinking Putting shade trees in front of the Hartley might block the view from the house to the Hartley?
"Hey guys, how's it going? So today we just have a couple of small things to work on..."
*Notices the video is 35 minutes long...* 🤔
Speaking from the perspective of a senior and looking out for your parents, single stones are very hard to walk on. Of course you don't need to make those considerations, but you may not have thought of that. You are such a great designer, and I can't begin to imagine what goes on inside your mind all the time.
We will hit into the 90/100 this wknd, pray no fires! Love the furniture❤
Marker 11:07 to 11:13 so lovely - in 6 seconds here you are around all your plantings with your children(most beautiful blooms of all) at your feet spinning in joy. You are blessed Laura by Father God indeed.
Thank you for the comment on the sweet pea Old Time! It's out of stock most places on line, but Seedsday had some :) We used a sod cutter to peel up rolls of our lawn years ago. That was noisy, but not as labor intensive as going by hand. The benefit is that you can donate the rolls of grass to friends that need it.
That is one lucky girlfriend! That is a beautiful bouquet. I love that your videos show the kids playing and helping in the yard. You are doing things right and letting them be outdoor kids is the best! Keep up the good work. 😀
Keep it open & green for FOOTBALL w/the boys. Your son may appreciate it in a few years. - Just Saying
🙋🏽♀️💚🥦💐🌱🍇🌹🌿🌼🪴🌸🍃🥕🌺🌲🍑🌷🌳🌻🫐🪻🍓🧡
A relaxed chill day while you're flying around 😂😂
Gorgeous arrangement and love your content as usual ❤
Laura, leave lots of open space to keep your beautiful view of the Hartley. Be carfeul about planting too many trees near the sightline view of the Hartley. Photoshop is your friend.
I understand wanting more shade, especially where you live. However, I do think it would block the Hartley too much. Could you stager them? Put the one on the left back in the bed further in the fireplace bed and maybe another popped to the right that is a low weeping tree? weeping evergreen?
Loving the arrangement and Benjamin’s! So cute. With the pathway I think you should just do one tree. Thank you for sharing your plans with us!
Love the video on planning the space. Regarding the additional trees, it’s a hard call. Lots of trees are nice. But I somehow am thinking one tree on the left is better. You can have balance without symmetry. I love the idea of maintaining the open sight to the Hartley. As the garden bed to the left is widened, you can layer the plants from tall shrubs including one large tree down to the walkway. With low garden bed on the right which then transitions into the kidney shaped lawn. I am sure Laura will be able to work either option beautifully though.
LOVE the Raintree! The blooms are beautiful. It's so glorious to make your space fit you and your lifestyle.
The cut flower garden is inspirational. I MUST have more blooms in my life!
It's really interesting listening to you exchange ideas and plan the new layout. I remember you saying you were having some work done to the house. Would that work impact what you are planning now? How do you decide what order to do each project? I've learned so much through watching your videos - right from when you were working from the porch at your townhouse! The fact that you show the failures, as well as the triumphs, has given me the confidence to have a go - and now I love my garden! Thank you to you and the team.
Good morning! Randomness is good, it’s life. The new bistro set is beautiful. Love the lines of the furniture too. Both areas are looking so pretty. BTW did the young man get his flowers for his date?
The new bistro and the furniture set around the brick patio in front of the Hartley makes me so happy! The love of trees, shrubs and flowers grows every time I watch your shows. I feel so rejuvenated and inspired. Thank you so much Laura and Aaron! Forever Grateful, EB 😊❤
