    I garden in Minnesota, have lived in this home since our marriage. We've been here for 41 years. My gardens started about 25 years ago. I've kept notebooks with what I've planted, notes on what I want to plant, and what I call my dream gardens. It's great to go back and read them, to see comments, and read little anecdotes and comments from kids or grandkids. I have 6 or seven notebooks so far. Love it!

    This is a wonderful example of the power of journaling, capturing life in the moment. As the scriptures say, making a record enlarges our memory. Why is enlarging our memory important? Bc it keeps our past alive, we can relive that exact moment as recorded in that time. It connects us to the people, the places, and the events that make up our life. We can journal about anything. Especially important is the gift that our journal provides our posterity. Bc we have captured our life in writing or in recording or in video, our voice, our example, becomes a powerful force and strength to them after we are gone. Imagine Laura's great grandchildren hearing stories about her around the dinner table. Now imagine those same great grandchildren reliving those same stories in perfect detail through her garden journal, through her video journal. They will hear her voice. They will see her image. They will feel her passion. They will see how she handles adversity. They will come to know her in a very real and intimate way. What an incredible gift and legacy to leave your posterity.

    Just a tour of your garden makes me happy. Finding your garden journal must have been an unexpected joy. You have such a good eye for planning your garden, but just sometimes less is better. Grass has such a calming nature and your grass is always so lush and green, that it can be as attractive as a flower bed. I’m sure whatever you plan will be beautiful.

      I understand, but my granddaughter could drive at 14 but she lives in the city of Bettendorf not a farm😂. She 15 now and as soon as she finishes some class she can drive in certain states up to 30 miles. That means she can go to the barn where she stables her horse in Illinois. I’m from Illinois, and it’s weird to me. Illinois is so much more strict about young drivers.

    Sweet Annie, it is another love of a plant that if you plant it once you will never be free. It smells wonderful. It blooms late summer, early fall, tiny insignificant little balls. This is when it will dry and work as a marvelous filler and dry perfectly. It makes a great wreath base. Did I say how good it smells? I was told that it is considered a strewing herb. You would spread it on your dirt floors (way back in the day). I agree with you on the tomatoes, pruning makes them easier to manage, and maybe bigger tomatoes, but yield, I've never seen much difference. Your cut flower garden is probably my favorite of all the things you have in summer. Such abundance, so neat and tidy. Simply amazing. Thank you for sharing your journal! What a treat! How much fun is it to look back, it gives us a picture of ourselves and our gardens when both were younger. You have such neat handwriting. Wonderful.

    The Gara in those planters at the head of the flower garden is so beautiful in those planters. I love whispie, fairy like plants and with all the other things going on in those planters, they pop the entire thing. Gorgeous!
    Those hydrangeas are gorgeous. I planted some lime light ones this year and they are only about a foot tall, but blooming their little hearts out. I will be getting some of this variety next year. I absolutely love hydrangeas.

    What a treat seeing your garden journal from 2008! It’s inspiring for today’s gardens with the plant tags and seed packets. I began journaling after my master gardener training in the mid 1990’s and still hand journal to this day along with pictures and video clips. It’s fun looking back on plans, experiments, wins and losses and a wealth of knowledge accumulated over time 🌼🌺🐛🦋🕸🪲💐

    That is exactly what I do with a garden journal. Nothing fancy ; just taping in all plant tags and location in the garden planted , all seed packets and dates I seeded trays in the greenhouse. And what fun to look back and see how much progress I have made.
    Sometimes when I buy a plant and it preforms well I have to look back at plant tags so I can order the right variety of seed.

    Good Morning! 🌻 I love all the color! Journals are a special keepsake! I have several of my Grandmother's & my husband's Grandmother's! They kept track of everything from trips they went on,eggs they collected, livstock they sold, etc! I am excited for you on getting the sprinkler system installed! 😍📖🖋🪻🌿💚

    I also have a garden journal for my appartment, mostly a list of current seeds and when to plant them. But I never thought about keeping tags and packets in it! I definitely will!

    Taking a tour of your cut flower garden is a delightful showcase of your dedication and passion for gardening. Your ability to create and nurture such a vibrant and beautiful space highlights both your creativity and your deep appreciation for the natural world. This tour not only reflects the beauty of your garden but also the care and effort you’ve put into cultivating it. Sharing this experience allows others to appreciate the joy and serenity that come from a well-tended garden. Your enthusiasm for flowers and gardening is truly inspiring and heartwarming.

    You guys should take down that Tree outside of your kitchen when everything is torn apart now, before you plant grass. That way it won’t be hard to bring equipment in to take it down.
    Also, I keep a fancy recipe box full of plant tags & such for my garden journal 🪴🌻🌿

    Great video! Remember when your cut flower garden was just a trial in front of your house when you first bought the south property?? What a difference from then to now! I have enjoyed watching every step of the way. Do you think you'll add the boxwood around the quadrants in the Fall?

    Your garden journal is such a cool idea. I just have a garden center pot that I throw all the plant tags in.
