Poor Laura, it looks so hot outside and she's still looking cute!! Girl, tie your hair up!! 😂😭 Once you hit 1M subscribers, ponytail video please!😂
Noooo!!! I'm with Laura. I get headaches if I put my hair on a ponytail!!!
She did say she might wear a pony and short sleeves to celebrate 1 million!
Nooooo!! Play the piano!!! 😂😂😂🙌
Lol that's so funny!! 😂😂
I can't put mine in a pony for very long before I get a headache. I had to start using what I call a 'claw'. It's like a clamp that keeps all your hair up but it's not tight at all. I love it! Happy gardening ladies!!
May Ngo - doesn’t need to be a ponytail...just a clip to keep it up and back. 👍🏼 much cooler either way
Walk tall....foxglove and delphiniums from SEED!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
And they're first year blooming digitalis. That's cool.
Right??? I’m so jealous.
You are so sweet to still be working so hard whilst you are carrying a new human inside. Although we LOVE to see these videos, please be careful and rest more. We’d love that too
I think what I love most about this video aside from Benjamin and the absolute beauty of course is showing the issues you come across and how you handle it such as running into so many roots and suckers. Love you, your beautiful family and your videos!
The pineapple is an ancient symbol of hospitality. 😊
The pineapple became of symbol of hospitality when the colonists imported them from the Caribbean in the 17th century.
Jane Woodhouse I work in hospitality and have a pineapple of my resume. I love that it’s a symbol many know about but others are so oblivious to. I challenge everyone to go to any older botanical garden I bet you’ll spot pineapple statues.
luke Busby especially in the south. The pineapple is in every older garden. It’s beautiful to me.
We had a friend (man) who used to bring us a pineapple every time he came to dinner as a sign of "hospitality" thankfulness. :)
Laura taking off the pineapple gave me so much anxiety lol. Knowing her past experience with "fixing fountains" 😂🤣
Isaac Piercy me too!
At least the “fix” of the last fountain had a happy ending. It’s now a planter 😂 I wonder if it still is.
Especially when you have already seen the new addition announcement video!
Also gave me anxiety because she said she isn’t suppose to plant anything over 4 inches due to the pregnancy, so that pineapple piece seemed too heavy for her to be lifting Ugh. Im just as stubborn when I get involved with a project. 😆
That's just so funny , huh Laura ?
Ya just gotta know
"The
Power of A Praying Woman "
right Laura ?
Giggle , giggle ...🏡
Bless your heart, young lady! You are a wonderful mother. Thank you for sharing this wonderful news.
Laura, you're property should be declared a National Park, so beautiful!
This area is absolutely gorgeous. You have inspired so much over last couple of years so much so that i have now become a professional gardener and started my own business xxx thank you for everything you both do.
Wow, you go girl@
Amazing success to you.
good luck with your new business . is it vegetable gardening or flowers ?
@@hananmarji-nimri1461 its flower gardening but i have also got my own veg allotment xx
Wow!
You had mentioned earlier in the video that you were probably needing to divide the Veronica. Can you show us how you do that when it’s time, along with other perennials? Thank you and love your videos!!
Yes, I would love to see that as well!
It's probably the same as any other division: just drive a spade through the plant and voila! Done.
From a previous video. Dividing perennials: th-cam.com/video/F08P8lX8DLE/w-d-xo.html
Hi there!! I love your videos! They have helped me so much😊. This space is gorgeous and I'm hoping to purchase a fountain soon.
You little helper is the cutest! Keep up the good work!
Me,three! I had lavender Veronica for a couple years, and they did the laying to one side.Tried dividing them and ended throwing half of them, their roots are interconnected. Then last year they got an awful fungus. Just got rid of them, it was a big patch. But they are absolutely beautiful.
Oh my gosh. What you just did would’ve taken me all day! You don’t mess around! Wish I was younger. 🥰
Glorious video. I love the tall foxglove stocks. The layering of this garden is magic. But as always Russell & Benjamin are the cherry on top.
Benjamin saying back to his momma "hi baby" 😍 he's so adorable
I noticed that too. Soooo cute!!
I noticed that too. Completely adorable.
They like alot of water
Laura calling herself a hot sweaty mess ... me looking worse drinking a cup of coffee watching video thinking 'what?!?' Love the fountain!
Valerie Howden lol, I know she won't want to hear it, but, if she pulled back her gorgeous hair and didn't wear long sleeves she would be much cooler. Haha, but to each their own. Love Laura and Aaron and Benjamin 💕💕💕
Valerie Howden So silly!
Valerie Howden I am a really ugly, sweaty gardener...but my garden looks pretty.😁
Hahahahaha ha, YES
Oh Laura it's beautiful. When it grows in, it will be just gorgeous I think. I love the color combos. The peach/coral color just sets it off. Don't forget to stake the ones you were talking about. TFS!
Thanks for sharing this video. Your channel is one of my favorites. I have one request. I understand you primarily provide garden information, and I can't express how helpful you have been for my own garden journey. My youngest grandson loves your channel and he also loves chickens, so I hope you can show the chickens next time. Thanks so much. Have a blessed day.
I have learned so much from your videos and feel like I am a better gardener because of you, thank you so much Laura!
I went from killing an Aloe Vera plant to having a thriving veggie garden AND today I planted 7 David Austin Roses in my front yard! I had never even heard of David Austin until I watched your videos.
Thank you so much for everything you do.

I love this channel too much, every time when I watch it I feel so much happy. It's like therapy for me.
Me too, first thing I watch each morning. Laura is never, never Boring. Her and Aaron are so entertaining. So is Little Benjamin and Samantha Grace and the cats.❤️💙💙❤️
Hi Laura, this garden is absolutely magical. You are going to love the giant elephant ears. I planted some this year for the first time as well and once they get established, they take off and are stunning. They white flowers and beautiful as well as the rest of the plantings.
You are truly and inspiration to me and everyone that watches your channel.
Love you guys❤.
And Benjamin is the cutest!!!
I am proud of you for growing those foxgloves and delphiniums from seed! They are glorious!!
I love how excited you are about growing those from seed! It’s so satisfying to get something so gorgeous from a little old seed.
I held my breath when you started to lift the pineapple off the fountain!
Me too, we know what happened before.
I did too!
Was anybody else yelling, “wait for Aaron!” at that point? 🤣
This area is (and will be) beautiful. I love EE plants. Can’t wait to see yours grow and flourish.
That fountain! So pretty! Pineapples are an expression of Welcome! So pretty and welcoming. ❤️❤️
A very pretty flower bed. I love how the elephant ears complement the tropical theme of the pineapple fountain. And I have to get an auger! I bet it's so much easier.
It wasn’t until Garden Answer did a tulip video (must see) that I got an auger, definitely life changing in the garden. 😉
@@007Lehua Me too! It’s a game changer!,
When Benjamin repeated "Hi, Baby", my heart melted. Your family is absolutely precious!
Please include us when you divide the Veronica. I learn by seeing and doing better than just reading. Thanks in advance! And thank you so much for showing how to use the stump and vine killer! Stopping into garden center today to buy some! And the fountain and garden bed look absolutely GORGEOUS!!! SO PRETTY!!! Colors and shapes are fantastic blend!! Loved seeing Russel laying around and then Benjamin responding to you by saying "Hey Baby" right back to you!
Oh Laura, this is probably the first time you are planting something that I am already growing, elephant ears or Taro. I am so happy. The Taro plant is edible, leaves, stems, roots( or say tubers) everything is edible and pretty tasty. 😋
I am growing them in a pot, in my balcony and they are really very forgiving plants. Hope u like and enjoy them through the progressing season. 👍😊
Wow. You are amazing. So much energy. I had that energy when young. Be well, and enjoy :).
Benjamin looks so cute and a cool dude .
Just LOVE the Pineapple Water Feature! 😍 And the Planting is beautiful!….. 😍
The white Veronica is so beautiful! Everything else is wonderful too of course.
What a beautiful area, I love everything!!!! When I look at the pineapple fountain & the garden surrounding it, I feel a sense of peace & relaxation!!!! 😊💦🌞🌸🌼🌺🌿
Oh my gosh, you just never quit Laura !! Spectacular ! You set the bar so high but it's total inspiration! Congratulations on the Foxglove ! I think the Elephant Ears are going to do very well in that spot, really looking forward to seeing them.
The area behind the chicken coop looked great already, but now it looks so beautiful 😍 😍
I like the lighting in this video. Gardens always look incredible in the late sunlight
Such a beautiful planting scheme. So romantic 💜
When you lifted the pineapple I had flashbacks to the urn on the other fountain falling over
Richard Cummings , I actually held my breath hoping after all that effort the pump worked. I would’ve tested the pump before putting it into such a big fixture like that!
Nice job on the fountain! You go girl! Laura Congratulations on your Delphiniums they grew so fast and looked so luscious! The light color on them is so pretty even if they turned out a different color. Excited! Can’t wait to see the growth the Elephant ears will put in a month or two. I just love everything you do in your garden🤗. And I have mentioned this before but Benjamin is just the cutest!
Gorgeous as always!!!! Love how u like to play in the dirt..... me toooo!!! Just the smell of dirt and the feel of it in yours hands is amazing to me!!!!! I can tell u feel the same way!!!! Love your channel!!!!!!! 🙏❤️😊
The veronica is stunning and lends to a great display, along with the delphiniums and everything else! This garden area is absolutely beautiful and the fountain is so appealing and inviting too. I'm excited with you!
I wonder why they're flopping, though. Soil too rich?
I really want to plant some, but if they split like that when it wasn't that long ago since Laura planted them maybe I don't. Other Veronicas have done well in my crappy soil.
@@Edu_Kate Could it be their getting to much water ?
GASP!!! This garden bed is beautiful!! Well done Laura 😊 I really hope those Elephant ears thrive, they are the perfect addition.
P.S. Benjamin is the sweetest, most polite kid, you and Aaron are raising a lovely young boy 💛
I love this garden! The chicken coop is my favorite area. Looking back at this video to see the before is so interesting. Seems like gardens look so perfect when you plant them, then they really get going and before you know it things are overgrown, drowning out the neighbors. The fountain is definitely worth the hassle, it's gorgeous! I just noticed the grouchy face on the base of the fountain. That's something you can't see when the plants get bigger. The color combination is beautiful!!!
Thank you for persevering to make this video, even though you were clearly pushed for time. I for one really appreciate your effort.
Russell's insistence of being in every video cracks me up.
Instead of Where's Wally, it's a case of Where's Russell LOL
Benjamin, is a cutie ... That fountain is amazing !!I want one ! and the garden area gorgeous ... Way to go Laura
I think this is my favorite area in your yard ....all around the chicken coop!!! Also, I like the new style of filming. 👍🌱
Your plantings around all sides of the chicken coop are my favorite areas to see planted up. So pretty.
Hi Laura!You are so hands on in everything you do in your garden.Keep going!
Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Same
Mukhang edible na gabi yung tinanim ni Laura. 😅😂
The only downside of watching Laura here in our country, is that we can't plant all the things she plants. Also we don't have proven winners nor espoma lol!
Laura, Your foxglove peach and light lavender looks beautiful. I'm an 'old' interior designer which thinks I should have been a garden designer! I just don't have the energy it takes anymore. The shed looks good with nothing on the right side it cause's the eye to look at the flowers more. The simplicity of the fountain is also perfect. Then the blueish /lavender petunia's with the foxgloves is perfect.They compliment each other! Just Lovely my friend! My favorite so far !!
i am going to call this your animal garden.. it's planted behind the chicken coup, and it has fox gloves , 🐘🦊and also elephant ears.. and the odd cat "Russell and company". Love it so much.🐾🐹
Turned out stunning, love the fountain.
Laura, you have the prettiest complexion! Your skin is flawless!! Ps - My heart melted when Aaron brought Benjamin with him----soooooo sweet to see a boy with his daddy!!!!
So Beautiful! You are going to love the elephant ears 😊. We started growing them a few years ago and had such success! The first year we were amazed at how large the leaves get & we made a concrete birdbath out of it 😂. I’ve never grown foxgloves before but they are on my wishlist for next year now! Always so inspired by you! Thank you, Laura!
Just beautiful beautiful and beautiful
Such a pretty spot! I love that you shared how much time the entire project took. I often wonder what the real time is for projects. Thank you for sharing your garden. Y’all provide so much inspiration!!
So beautiful! But, honestly, Benjamin with his sweet wee voice steals the show all the time!🥰❤️ LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the foxgloves! I planted so many flowers from seed this year and they’re all happily growing. I so know what you mean! It’s like I discovered a super power. 🦹🏽♀️
Another awesome flower bed.
I LOVE water features in the garden. You can never have too many in my opinion. And they are worth the maintenance 😂
LAURA, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!, this flower bed is my favorite of all your flowerbeds this year. great job!
Ooh Laura I love your white wands,,, I’ve never seen those flowers before, such a picture the way you’ve planted them 🇮🇪😊
Beautiful garden & lovely happy family! Thanks for sharing your wonderful work with us Laura ! 👍❤️😊🌸🌿☀️
Laura - love your videos and those plants are gorgeous. I also feel very proud when I get seedlings to grow that big. Congrats. And my gosh, I don't know where you get your energy - you are always working!
As in other recent videos I think I am hearing beautiful doves cooing. For me in NC we hear Mourning Doves. Not sure what your species is yet. Love both calls but the Morning Doves evoke memories of my childhood in SE TX and hot humid summer mornings and late afternoons with cicadas and katydids mixed in. Love your videos Laura. Come here everyday. Thanks so much for sharing your gardening and family life with us
I always laugh when I hear/read this because to me, here in New Jersey, they're just PIGEONS, lol. (And they're kind of regarded as poorly as seagulls, i.e., "rats with wings.")
@@Bamboo4U2 There's a difference though. Wild doves do not scavenge just any food like pigeons do. I and many other bird lovers regard them with more respect than that :) Seagulls have their own appeal also :)
@@reader649 yeah, I didn't expect us to see eye-to-eye on the matter. C'est la vie.
The cicadas were right on time, July 1 they started their horrific noise. Greater KC area.
I live in the same general area as Laura and those are a type of mourning dove. I, too, love to listen to them. And Jake Jones, those are not the pigeons you are referring to but we do have those around as well. They are typically found on the farms and can sometimes become a bit of a pest given the right environment.
I like how the supertunia brings out the color of the "wrong colored" delphinium
Agree

@@cynthiadunlop6973 I had to giggle because this looks like what happens when my cat is around my keyboard! :)
Love your victory face when the fountain started working. Way to go!
It IS pretty. Could sit there by the fountain and stare at it forever 😊💜
Hey Laura. The foxglove colour is dreamy!!! I can never imagine planting elephant ears (taro) coz for us they grow everywhere, like literally! Wherever there's constant water, these would thrive. Over in east India, we
consume the taro root and tender leaves as well. You had mentioned that a section of your moon garden has boggy soil, these would love that location!
I just planted my first elephant ear this year! I love them! They took FOREVER to come up but have finally sprouted. I planted the bulb not plant form. Do they require a lot of water? Wet soil? I planted in full sun and more dry area. Thanks for any input!
@@ajgem5467 hi! Well honestly I've never planted them for they are equivalent to weeds for us.But they love water. Any place where they get a ton of water or generous soak, they will grow and thrive. Here they grow on the roadside with full sunlight (we get a max high of 36°-38°), and because we get such rains almost throughout the year, they sprout everywhere.
@@ajgem5467 Lots of water and they don't appear until the soil is warm. I over-wintered mine in pot in a shed this year and they came up much faster than previous years. Zone 8b
@@ajgem5467 They are prolific - mine pop up everywhere, don't like direct sun, but do enjoy plenty of light (my entire yard gets full, direct sun all day as the sun moves round). I would completely give up on them (their poor leaves burn), but their blooms have such an amazing scent, I just let them do as they like. Mine are a large leaf Alocasia variety; the mother plant having been my grandmother's is nearly 30 years old.
Hi guys iam from south India as well. In my place if we keep three plants together we can see a snake 🐍 hiding in it. These days the snake population is so much reduced. Anyway good to know there are Indian followers for Lura's garden .
This is my favorite part of your garden. And this combo is awesome. The mini Vista indigo has been a favorite of mine this year. Your underestimating those elephant ears though! With heat and water they are going to be massive!! Make sure to feed them alot too cause they love every bit of it
Laura! Another stunning piece of art!!!! The garden looks beautiful and I can only imagine what it looks like in person!! You are the nicest, prettiest gardener I know!! Just love watching your gardening videos!!! Have a great day! :)
This is such a beautiful color combo: peach, white, purple.
Benjamin is such a cutie! 😍
The plants look great...so beautiful! The elegant ears go very big, at least the once I had in California. Can not wait to see everything grown! Hugs🤗💜
Oh how beautiful!😍 I'll be honest guys...I held my breath when you tilted and moved pieces with the fountian 🤣 so glad there were no mishaps! ♡
My dream garden! So beautiful! You bring us joy! Thank you Laura and Aaron!
I love your energy and your beautiful garden. Thank you for your very inspiring and informative videos.
When I watched you with the pineapple it reminded me of your fountain experience a few years ago. Is it possible for you to share video of dividing the Veronica. I have some perennials that are "floppy".
So I start the video, without my ear buds in. Hubby stops cold, stares at me, "stop, just stop watching that". Apparently you're a bad (good) influence. Hahahaha.
Lol...awww..why? Did u raid a nursery recently?
@@FernsAndForest Hahaha that's hilarious as my husband says the exact same thing! 👌
My ex who I run our garden center with says “ Hey guys how’s it going ?” In this peppy way. It’s pretty funny
Stick with Garden Answer. I watch it in secret. 🤫Watching something beautiful is the only thing keeping me sane. Broadcast TV is just too much right now.
My hubby says I have taken over the property with flowers since watching Laura. We have an acre so why can’t I take over half. 😂 my new neighbor called me the garden whisperer.
love the water foundation , and flowers are so beautiful together , love the blue purple flowers.
Gorgeous spot...I could see sitting right in front of that area. How peaceful.
6:24 the cords😂my hubby keeps telling me “hoses & cords have a memory when you roll up”...but honey I don’t have a memory🤣 everything behind the coop is beautiful.
Hi: Just a quick note...be careful with the elephant leaves in contact with your face or eyes...they contain oxalic acid and can be very irritating if the juice gets into your eyes...the Alocasia family is like that...ditto caladiums, although less so...love the new plantings...fountain is wonderful...thanks for a great video!!
If ingested they are also poisonous
Does it make a difference that these aren't alocasia? They're colocasia.
Some type of elephant ear are edible. I literally eat the leaves, stems, and roots.
Rubarb is the same, but the roots are tasty 😋
That's good to know! I have to be really careful with what I plant. My adult son with autism lives with us, and he loves to pick at leaves...
Love the end result. So pretty.
🍓🍓🍓We need a Benjamin finding strawberries video. 🍓🍓
Hi Laura! That garden area is so pretty! Love the pineapple fountain, too! I hope the elephant ears do well for you. They are really pretty and adds a different texture that, so far, you don't have anywhere else. I'm anxious to see their progress. As always, it was great seeing Aaron and Benjamin, too. Thank you so much for sharing!
I think you will love your elephant ears! They waggle so gently in the breeze & are very easy "children" All they want is that moisture--they won't mind the heat! Pile them with mulch & they should make it through the winter. They may look like a rotten mess in the spring, but don't dig them!! I've made that mistake so often! They sprout & feed from that. And they are BEASTS as you say of some plants. I'm sure they will richly reward you in short order being out of their cans.
What zone are you in?
Laura's going to get "hooked" on elephant ears, YAY!!! I'm in 7B and have been growing them for years. Love them!!!
I'm in zone 5 and was under the impression they need to be lifted in winter. It would be nice if I didn't have to.
Will you need to dig up the elephant ears for the winter? Beautiful!
In love 😍with the pineapple fountain. So glad it is working again! Also cant wait to see what the elephant ears do!
The chicken coop area is just beautiful. 🐔⚘
I’m growing jumbo elephant ears for the first time this year as well!
me too
Hi Laura! Just wondering if you still have those beautiful Limelight Hydrangeas by your Hebe statue and Weeping Willow? I would love to see an update please, that area is just so gorgeous.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful display of colors. You are amazing and such an inspiration. I have learned so much from you this year, and it shows in my gardens. I can’t thank you enough. Keep up the great work. 😊
Absolutely love the fountain! Gorgeous!! What a beautiful combination of plants/flowers in the bed! Looks very pleasing to the eye and with the fountain... oh I could just sit and enjoy!!!🥰
Kayla Christian , the sound of the fountain will probably be soothing for the chickens too!
I've been wanting to try elephant ears too. I didn't see you tease the roots 😂😂😂
I know you're "teasing" Laura. I think she doesn't need to in this case because her soil is so rich those roots will want to reach out. Plus, they're considered annuals (bulbs can be dug up in fall).
I'm fighting Wisteria & Ivy from the property next door, will try the vine killer. I can't eradicate it all but trying to keep it from eating MY property too. PLEASE folks, never plant Ivy in the ground & use only native American Wisteria!
Edit: update on the new property plantings?
Psst: Laura planted the Japanese variety by her tool shed, lol.
I have Ivy taking over a corner of my yard & fence, thanks to my neighbor. 😜 He planted it in a “difficult” spot in his yard. It didn’t take, but it loves mine.
Yes, growing things from seed and it working, is magical.
Looks fabulous!!! I really love this whole area, you are so gifted. The fountain is wonderful. You both are my idols.
It looks so beautiful! I especially love your fountain. How do you keep algae out of it? I feel like I’m constantly scrubbing my little fountain.
A buckwheat cake--a natural & organic solution!
Help! I got some foxglove for the first time this year! A couple of days after planting they began to wilt horribly. We have been in the low to mid 90’s for several weeks with high humidity. I have been giving them water twice daily (and a good amount). They get morning sun until noon. The poor things are STILL wilting 2 weeks later. Is it possible that I put too much starter fertilizer in with them? Am I watering too much? Too much sun? How do I save them?
Hi Laura or anyone here that can help ?I have a lovely begonias but I notice they're having white spots and 2 of them are really full of it.What have I done wrong?And is there any spray that I can use?Pls. Help me save them.Thank you!
Mely Terry mealy bugs ? In case you don’t know , Mealy bugs are cottony like bugs that appear to be spots until closer inspection. They are often found in the leaf joints and undersides of leaves. Insecticidal soap, or a Dawn/water combo mixed with alcohol will usually kill them. You have to be persistent. They spread easily and may require several rounds of treatment. I had a bad case a few years back. Some of the plants were so overwhelmed I threw them away. My other guess is powdery Mildew. There are plenty of DIY treatments on TH-cam for it. Good luck 🍀.
@@ltnewsome Thank you so much!I will search in you tube then.
I think this may be my favourite flower bed; the colour combination is beautiful!
Those foxgloves! The colour is gorgeous. The whole area looks fantastic.
