      We started planting trees in memory of family members who had passed. Then at the request of our children we started planting a tree of their choosing for them. Now, when they visit they often remark about how big their tree is. When our first grandchild arrives this coming year, he will learn about the family trees and the stories that go with them. It is better than a scrapbook.

    We had 38 oak trees on our property. They were about 250 years old. I never grew tired of sitting under the mighty oak canopy and thinking about all they’ve seen. We also had the pleasure of watching a great horned owl raise her baby and watched her teach it to fly.

      My concern is width. Planting high is one thing, but those roots need to have enough space to spread themselves out, particularly in high wind areas where they need to be well-anchored.

    • @leannewilson8288

The boxwoods were little babies and there was only a couple of things in that bed. I truly hope GA is still making videos in 10 yrs so we can all look back and see how far they’ve come! It’s a pleasure to be taken along for the ride! Have a great weekend everybody!!

    Aaron is NOT wrong!😄 My certified arborist told me to never put any soil on the top of the root ball, and anything you mulch with should contain only composted tree parts, and even that should never be placed up against the trunk. My horticulture classes taught me to plant with the top of the root ball level with the soil (including mulch), and only backfill up to the sides of the root ball, never on top of it. The trees sure do add a lot of beauty to that space!

    • @saras9840
      @saras9840 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree with you, but Aaron is planting way above level with the existing soil and then levelling up with the mulch. Won’t dry mulch sap the top few inches of the root ball. The native soil appears to be very dry so any irrigation malfunction may be disastrous…

    • @MarylineMallet
      @MarylineMallet ปีที่แล้ว

      @@saras9840this is what I have red too… he should mount (cover the roots in a pyramid shape with top soil, not mulch :s ). Then he can put the mulch. What i’ve red is that mulch/compost does not retain enough moisture for the upper roots which are important for the tree. Mulch and compost are not the same as top soil…. I do hope they do okay!

      @lauriespiker5952 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@saras9840 It looks like he's planting them only a couple of inches above the existing soil level, which is good foresight if he expects the eventual surrounding soil level to be a little higher than it is. The only problem I see is covering the top of the root ball with soil -- the backfill should only be brought up next to the sides of the rootball, not on top of it.

    You know what I love so much about watching Laura & Aaron plant these trees is knowing that when Laura talks about a tree getting 50+feet high you know that won’t be for at least 15-20 years (depending on the tree). So they’re not really planting for them to enjoy anytime soon. They’re planting for their golden years, their kids future, etc. Sometimes it feels like gardening is a really selfless way to spend your time on earth. All your hard work and love is going into a future you might not be around to enjoy but you know as a gardener that someone sometime in the future is going to love what you’ve created and think about the people who created it (even if they don’t know who they were). It gets me teary eyed.

    You know your family’s life is really the epitome of how our country was for so many generations. You are all home, working the land. Both parents are able to be home with children and so they grow up working and playing with both parents. They learn a great work ethic and a love of the land. They learn charity as they see you gift the children’s hospital. Etc. You have other family nearby , your parents, siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews. You live in a smallish town where you run into people you know and even went to school with when you go to town. It is a great life. When you talk about moving to a different location sometimes, you don’t realize what it is like to not know anyone. You never walk into a store and run into an old friend or come home to find a sister or brother already at your house to greet you I’m glad you seem to have decided this is the right place to be.

I sure hope you don't regret putting it in. Unlike the acorns they are very light and fly just where I don't want them.

    So glad Aaron got the oak. Love those acorns! We wouldn't know how to behave without acorns every year.

      I have to pull up small ones all the time growing in flower beds and it's constant thru out the spring and summer. One was hidden on the center of a shrub,it had gotten about a foot tall when I noticed the different leaf shape and knew exactly what it was. It had rooted in pretty good and was hard to get out. Most times I catch them small,and the acorn is still attached. But at least they're far from the house here and won't be a mess. Love the shade,but keeps me busy picking up limbs and leaves.

    I have to laugh, the son of farmers/landscapers/gardeners, the brother of a girl who eats dirt, and then there's Benjamin who doesn't want to step on some mud in the gator. Precious!

    What a wonderful video. Benjamin is so adorable. He can run fast with his regular shoes on instead of his sandals. I thought it was so sweet that he didn't want to step on the soil in the gator. I also enjoy it so much when you and Aaron work together. It's so much fun to watch.

    Your children are absolutely beautiful. You guys have a beautiful home to raise your family and thanks for sharing so much with us. I started watching you a three years ago. My first garden attempts was a few flowers in containers, next added a little more the next year and today my entire yard is admired by all my neighbors. Laura you do inspire us!!!!

      Beautiful backdrop shots, the flower garden, trees, and white fence, are so pretty!
      Had to chuckle at the difference between Oregon locations. S. Ore. has soo many oaks. I have to constantly rake leaves...not my favorite. Do love the dogwood and redbud, their beauty especially in the Spring are breath taking! Can't wait to see this planting then. And the dark mulch makes it pop! And also makes it look like it has been there for some time!
