This is the video that sold me on this channel. Anyone can be an expert for a 5 minute video, but her knowledge is ridiculously impressive. Not scripted and not recorded in a thousand takes. Well done! Subscribed!
Just watching this today. Agree with you! She is so natural and easy to listen to. Very knowledgeable and she doesn’t have any hesitation in her voice. I found her channel last year while looking for advice on hydrangea. Because she is comfortable in front of the camera she makes it comfortable to listen to. I found some channels with people who are offering good advice, but don’t speak as well. They seem nice, but hard to listen to someone who is not fully prepared for an audience. They speak too much “ off the cuff”.
I’ve been following GA since their first video. This is still my favorite one. 💚
I rewatch this and the spring tour of your parents’ house every year, such an inspiring property showing what age can add to a garden ❤️ I’d love to see more tours through the seasons!
Thank you Mom and Dad for providing your daughter a safe and beautiful haven growing up and rubbing into her what garden can do to the personality of a person. I Was taken by her exuberance and pride showing her childhood happy life. She mentioned her parents so many times in this video -;proof of her love and respect towards her Mom and Dad. If only all parents can provide such tranquility and beauty for their children then war in this world will be eradicated. Congratulations!
OMG...I love it...I knew you were a farm girl. I have collectively been watching some of your older videos and I didn't realize your Mom & Dad had so much livestock. What a joy to see your parents property but also the love you have for your upbringing. Video was excellent Aaron, loved the overhead shot...beautiful. What a blessing your whole family is to the community!
This is my dream garden, your parents have done an incredible job of creating such an authentic, English cottage style garden.
Jack What a lovely way to raise your children.
Where do your parents live and when can I move in ?! HAHA
ditto ditto ditto!
Your mom must have infinite energy to run a business and keep up that beautiful yard!
Her daughter as well!
hi san you are beautiful and unique i admire you for that.
This was the first garden answer video I watched. Its crazy how much the channel has grown in the last 3 years! Always love the garden tours.❤
I just came upon this awesome and lovely site. All I can add to this is that you have a wonderful mother. How do I know? Watching her daughter pour out respect, love and honor for her!
Hey guys Aaron here! Sorry the lighting on this video is kinda terrible! The morning sunlight was not doing me any favors. Hope you're still able to enjoy the tour!
The lighting was perfect Aaron!! Great video and amazing garden. So much work and love in it! Awesome!
It was wonderful thank you!
This made my day 😊😊😊
Lovely garden, winderful to know the changes over the years. Question? Hiw to keep weeds, grasses out if the beds, i cant keep up and pulling isnt enough. Mulch?
It's fine it's gorgeous in the morning😄
Can't believe I'm saying this because there's so many to choose from, but this is, hands down, one of THE BEST videos ya'll have made! I think I love it so much because this garden & your parents are what created you & your love of gardening, which has led to people all over the world falling in love with gardening. You can see and feel the reverence you have for your childhood home. Thank you for sharing it with us! Please thank your parents, also. And Aaron, as always, your videography, editing, sound, drone & editing skills are fantastic!
That comment certainly says it all! Loved this video and will watch it many times!
Maintaining this garden has to be a full time job for an army!
Absolutely spectacular! Nevertheless, I can't imagine the cost, labor and time it takes to maintain such a heavenly place.
"Romancing the ordinary"- I love that!
I know right. Most of the most magical and beautiful things/ideas are just so simple. This is one of them.
Her mom should write a book about romancing the ordinary I'd love that❤
Breath taking garden. I can see how gardening is in your blood and loved hearing how it’s evolved though the years. Again, You and Aaron has made a beautiful video. Thank you!
Instablaster...
Thank you so much!! I'm grieving the loss of my husband to be. I've lost our homestead land in the process. You have touched my heart with this video!!! This is the first time I have felt hope for a new beginning. It is wonderful to hear your heart leap when you speak of your childhood. 🙏 blessings to you and your family.
Lynda Bell 🙏💜🙏
@@tallmanjoe703 thank you😊🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss! I remember all the plans and hopes when I was engaged and I can't imagine having them all be dashed in such a way. My heart is hurting for you.
I'm so glad you are beginning to see daylight and hope for tomorrow. Spring has a way of doing that and so does Laura. Her love of life and plants and such is infectious.
I'll be praying for you. God has a plan for you. Romans 8:28 is my go to verse when something bad happens. In case you don't know this verse, it says:
For we Know that all things work together for good to those who love the Lord, the called, according to His purpose.
God can and does take the worst of circumstances and somehow in ways that only He can, turns them around for good. One day you will look back on this time with a bitter/sweet feeling and know that as hard as this was, God made a way and somehow it is even better.
For now, know that all the praying ppl who see this are praying for you. There is not in the morning and spring does bring eternal hope.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus.
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
Amen!
Romance the ordinary; timeless parents; the apple doesn't fall too short from the tree; I love your parents garden; thank you for the tour!!! :)
You should do a yearly tour of your mothers garden because this place is beyond gorgeous!
Spectacular! Loved the kitty following you on the tour.
😂
I thought that was adorable too 😂
me too..i would have picked it up and loved on it while I took cleansing breaths....
Xxx

Aaron's new book "How to make your wife and garden look beautiful under all lighting situations "
Haha, that comment cracked me up. I'd buy that book.
😂😂😂😂 ditto
I love that kitty having such a good time in the garden! It's so sweet following you with head boops.
I love the kittens in your garden trying to get your attention. I named my front garden Merlin’s Garden cuz my tuxedo kitty loves to sleep an roll in the mulch there.
this is the most beautiful and breathtaking garden i have ever, EVER seen
Soo much love

Laura, I'm in love with your mom's garden. I garden just like her. I have pathways with surprises and interests around its curves. I've always been a romanticist gardener. A little hard when you have only sons and your husband. They're not the least bit interested in weeding. Haha. Thank your mom and dad for letting us enjoy their garden. What a treat!
Hey Aaron, you're amazing at what you do, no worries here. Lighting might not be the best (your opinion) but the video quality always amazing. Happy Sunday.
I agree
If I were a poet your parents property and life and family values of love and inspiration would fill volumes. Your appreciation and kindness of expression and sharing brought me to tears. Thank you. PAM
What a privilege to have toured your parent’s garden today. Years of design interest and the evidence we see of your parents making hundreds of decisions over the years . Thank you.
WOW.....!! That is absolutely beautiful !! I wish I lived there with your parents . I could just imagine waking up to that beautiful garden every morning . Sitting around in the garden drinking coffee and listening and watching all of the birds . Watch all of the beautiful butterflies as well . Love it !! Thank you for sharing this gorgeous garden with us . 💐🌸💮🏵🌹🥀🌺🌻🌼🌷⚘🌳🌴🌵🌾🌿☘🍀🍁🍂🍃🐞🐝🦋🐌🐸🐛🦉🦎🕊🐦🐿❤😊
Laura the cat whisperer!
You guys are the red carpet couple!! I see the love & respect in every video. The gardens are beautiful. Thank you for always sharing. :)
hi jana you are beautiful and unique i admire you for that.
What an exciting place to live and grow up. Your enthusiasm for plants is refreshing. I get pretty excited about plants but its so much fun to share the facination with others who are just as excited. I cant imagine the commitment of 20 years of watering all that without some watering system! I get a lit of inspiration from you and enjoy your love of growing. You also cover a lot of info and answer my questions before i can even ask. You got me getting my first two succulents that will help keep me grow happy during the fall and winter. Not ready to shift that way yet abd hilding onto hope for a fall garden. I also am wanting to finally start planning to get our first hellebore. Your info on them encourages me im making a good choice. Thank you!!!
no words to describe! where is this little piece of heaven on earth? What all beautiful things these two hands can do...much love to your entire family
Their garden is....STUNNING!
I love you showing us different gardens because that really gives me new ideas etc. Your mom's garden is beautiful too! I never thought of putting fountains throughout the garden so that you can hear the water. Could you do some videos on water features and how to use them throughout your garden etc? Thank you:)
Stunning drones shots. Shows your parents created an oasis out there. Just one of the prettiest gardens I have ever seen. So incredible!
ugh i wish i had the knowledge and skills to grow gardens like this in my 5 acres. you and your family are truly gifted.
I gave this video a thumbs up even before it started 😄.
Jenny Molina me too! Lol
You definitely grew up in a fairytale!
With hard work thrown in ...
Amazing Garden tour, so real and down to earth introduction. Gardeners are so pretentious these days but you were full of simplicity and love and pride .
Wow and just wow...loved the entire video and I’m so envious of your upbringing around all those beautiful gardens...thank you for sharing 🐓🐑🐇🐱🌞🌻🌼🌸🌺🌹🌷🌳🌱🌿🍃❤️
You are my favorite person on youtube right now. Im learning soooo much from you. Flower names, plant names, trees , what to do and what not.
What are great water containers good for yards and birds
Wow, now we can see where you got your gardening talent from Laura! Thank you so much for sharing the birds eye view at the end Aaron!!! Your parents home and landscaping is a little slice of Heaven!
I always go back and rewatch these videos of your mom's garden...I really am in love with her space! Hoping there will be an update video of her garden soon! And hopefully on the next one she will come out and explain a few of the sections and the thought process on some of the projects she's done throughout the years. 🙏 Your mom is the cutest! I love the videos you post with her in them. She has the loveliest laugh too. 😊
Wow wow wow!! Just foind this video randomly and I'm now a super fan!! Subscribing and following! I bought mt first home 5 years ago, empty land, and I've been slowly making it a ginormous garden and THIS IS WHAT I WANT. Love it! Your parents should be extremely proud of what they've accomplished!! Cant believe how beautiful they've made it 💕💕 no plants are ordinary! Every plant is special!!
Laura,worth every second! Breathtaking! No wonder you are so talented. I have just had the best time "visiting" with you in your parents peaceful and lovely garden. Aaron fantastic drone views. Please thank your parents and thank you for sharing your childhood memories. 💚🌾🌸🌿 P.S. After thinking about labeling your plants. What about pieces of wood from one of your trees with the plant names burned into them?
Rebecca Wood Bixler yes, thank you from me as well and mom.
hi pretty you are beautiful and unique i admire you for that.
I know people may have already thought of but it has taken me some time to think of writing on the labels with a paint pin! I’ve used permanent markers only to find it either faded or simply washed off due to the weather!
Your parents’ garden is gorgeous, but I’ve gotta be honest...the kitty stole the show. Lol. So adorable!
Chef Tilly Isn't that crazy how the cat has to be close by..
Your parents are living in heaven it's so soo beautiful just amazing
Unbelievably magnificent...wow what amazing parents....I am in awe of all of it.
I feel like I just been on vacation.
Heaven on earth! You and your parents home/garden/space are amazing!! Very inspirational 💚 I wouldn’t want to leave the house.
Compared to your garden, all the rocks, terraces and age of plants make this garden beautiful. I believe your both of your gardens are amazing
Oh my god I love this very nice
I can't live without plants its food for me
Another incredible "Garden Answer Movie " Thank your parents for allowing us in. Just breathtaking.
Aaron I always watch your drone footage over again in slow motion , fantastic !
This is absolutely gorgeous. Truly a dream garden
I love that your kitten is following you around the garden ❤️
Hello from Australia. I came across your video by accident and thought I would take a peek and was blown away by your tour. The garden is amazing and you did such a wonderful tour describing the plants as you went. The filming was superb. I felt like I was there which is fantastic as unfortunately I will never get to travel and see the garden in person. Thank you so much for this video. I love it and will be watching it again and referring it to friends and family. It really got me inspired to make a move outside on a very windy and cool day when earlier I had been procrastinating about whether to go out in the garden or not.
What a fabulous property your parents have! I’ve seen the short videos you have done there, but I had no idea that the property was so large and gorgeous. And the views, WOW! And Aaron, no worries about the lighting, you always do a great job no matter the circumstances. Thanks to both of you for the hard work you do to show your beautiful part of the world to everyone!
Absolutely breathtaking. Laura, you are a cat magnet!
I love how you're so kind to the animals. Thank you.
And this, folks, is the heaven that exists outside of HOA hell.
Love this comment! I told my husband when we move out of our home in the city (non-HOA)... i want to move to a nice piece of land in the country and I'll turn it into my garden paradise.
So true
What’s HOA?

Love the mindset "Romance the Ordinary"! That would make a wonderful t-shirt! Love the videos and appreciate all your hard work!
WOW!! what an incredible property... so full of love and care and very well designed! You did an amazing job hosting... thanks for sharing this!!
Love your parent's garden and your mother's motto of romantizing the ordinary. ❤
I'm out of energy just watching the tour of the most gorgeous garden I've ever seen.
You should get a kickback from my local garden center. Every time I watch one of your video tours, I start making plans to add to my garden! I hope you'll be able to continue these CHARMING videos for a very long time!
PS - I would be very interested to see a video about how you and your parents organize the care of your gardens. I continue to improve my space, but the spring pruning alone keeps me busy for a week!
I totally agree.
Beautiful!!! It's lovely how your parents made gardening fun for you, and not a chore to be avoided as an adult. There's an additional layer in that garden, memories, that adds magic. Very special.
They have those copper labels that you write on with a pen or sharp stick, which embosses the lettering. Expensive and I don't know how they age.
Amazing and inspiring!
This looks like a movie set. How wonderful to have grown up here.
Am an in awwww! How gorgeous, thought through, CLEAN, cozy, warm...And so much work!! How do your parents take care of weeds? Is there fabric under all the flower beds? You are also very sweet. Thank you for taking time and showing us this beautiful garden. It is finally spring, and watching your videos is so motivating. Who needs HGTV with such amazing content on TH-cam?
It was so wonderful of your parents to share their lovely home/garden. Running the business and tending to all of that property makes me wonder if they have more than 24 hours in a day and more energy than most. I totally get the romancing the ordinary. The little extra effort it takes is so worth the joy it brings.
The drone footage is the cherry on top!!! Another amazing video
That beautiful little kitten is there for the adventure! ♥️
Thank you for showing the garden of your childhood. It is fantastic. I love that it is not manicured. So beautiful and inspiring.
I love, love , love this garden tour. My property is not at all this size, but It looks great and I’m learning a lot from your vids. This is a passion of the heart. Seeing this lovely garden just makes me sooo happy!🤗
Pretty. I can't imagine just how much a garden like this would cost!
I love you
I see where you get your ideas and all you are these days must be wonderful to have a great mom that you admire are great friends with and adore. You are so lucky!
This is the most beautiful garden I have ever seen!
This was breathtaking! Wish my garden looked even close to this.
This home garden tour has become one of my all time favorites. With every turn, a new collection of plantings, yet somehow,, the style is consistent throughout - pulling it all together. It looks so healthy, creates secluded spaces, & creates an intimate feeling, with each areas so lovely, I could be content if that is all there was to see! In reality - each area could be all the space some of us have to work with. Then, beyond the winding trail - long vistas. Not sure what was in the distance - but being in Oregon, I wondered if you can see the ocean in the distance...
It was quite charming to come out of the enclosed & winding garden path to a little barn, & penned in chickens & a talkative sheep. Loved that the cats seemed so delighted to have their Laura over, visiting. I viewed this on my phone, so looking forward to seeing it on my laptop, where I could see more detail, & then later - one day - on the flatscreen.
I wonder if they've ever won awards for this garden design! If not - they should have! It sure is a testament of what some people can accomplish if they can share in creating a vision, & then - are willing & able to work well together, to meet their goals. Just imagine how they feel to have created such an environment for themselves, their family, a place to entertain & now - a place the public can visit when they do public tours. Truly impressive. Very enjoyable!
So I came onto TH-cam looking for videos on small vegetable gardens and I got distracted by this. I cannot lift my jaw up from the floor. What an absolutley stunning, stunning garden. I'm sitting in my kitchen in Milan during the lockdown of the entire country of Italy during the covid 19 epidemic. I can't get to my garden in Tuscany and am missing it hugely. Your video has lifted my spirits so very much. Thank you and thank you to your incredible parents.
Thank you for showing your Parents garden .So lovely .
Thank you for this wonderful inspiring video! Last night at 11pm we had a tremendous wind storm ( Ketchum, ID). We had four 80 year old magnificent spruce trees blown over😔... one hit our historic log home but no apparent damage and no one was injured. It appears that it could have been a micro burst as the neighbors had no damage.
Devastating for sure as I had just finished all the new spring gardening and planting! So your tour of your parents garden is a good reminder to accept change and move ahead. I will look forward to sunnier areas where I can once again plant a vegetable garden! Thanks again. Your enthusiasm is contagious! 💕
Best garden video tour on youtube by a mile. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Absolutely beautiful! I can see where you get your green thumb for sure 💐👍🏼
Oh to have a potting shed, and an affectionate cat to keep you company wherever you go thru the garden!
What a beautiful Oasis your parents have created!! Clearly, you follow in their footsteps. I'm not sure how they managed to run the garden center and take care of all that needs to be done at the house as well. Maybe their days have 30 hours in them!😉👍🤣🤣
I like your comment. Must be a lot of help to create this Oasis. And a lot of money as well for sure.
Lighting no big deal. Oh my gosh was a wonderful property. Thanks for the long video. Loved it.
One benefit of Covid 19 quarantine is lots of time to work on my garden. Honestly, though, this video has inspired me in ways you'll never know. I flat out stole the ideas you presented in some of your spaces. It's clear that gardening is in your blood, as well as your parents. Thank you so much for your ideas, as well as your inspiration.
Dear Laura, your parents garden it's sooooo beautiful. Your parents must be very hard worker, and so they and everything they created it's so inspiring and so beautiful. I'm so glade I found your Garden Answer. Thank you for this beautiful tour. I wish you and your parents a very happy, beautiful life.
What an amazing place to grow up in. Thank you for sharing 😊
OMG...the cats crack me up! Gardens are beautiful.
I absolutely LOVED your parents garden. What a fun place to grow up.
Such a beautiful, peaceful home, surrounded by beauty and life! In my life it would be a perfect getaway. And to have chickens, goats, sheep- heavenly. I just want to hug them all! Thank you for the tour!
hi patti you are beautiful and unique i admire you for that.
I would have never left home!
They need a donkey..
The use them here a Michigan State University with the sheep to keep the predators away.
Great companions for farm animals.
True we had lamas and donkey to follow our goats and sheep.
Someone told me a story about a donkey kicking a mountain lion to protect a horse. The mountain lion was defeated.
So envious of your parents’ garden. How blessed you are to have grown up there and can still enjoy all the labors of the family. First time to watch you, love your video presentation. I definitely will watch others. Thank you!
Thank you for a very enjoyable tour of your parent's garden. Simply lovely !
This was another great tour. I now know where you got all of your inspiration!!! I can't imagine your parents taking care of all these gardens plus owning a large business. Lots of work and that must be where you got your work ethics, too!! Thanks for sharing!!!
What a gorgeous garden and what a lot of work! Love the kitty!
So much eye candy! I'm stuck in the house with an icky cold, so since I can't do any gardening this was food for my soul! I might watch it all over again...
Oh my god this is the dream garden anyone can have, I looooooved it soooooo much thank you very much to show me your mum's garden 😊
4th time rewatching this tour. I love rewatching because I always see something new to put on my property 😃
John Sage I’m glad I’m not the only one, I’ve watched this whole tour like ten times, it is just the perfect garden and every time I get inspired by something different that I didn’t notice the last time
One of my favorite garden tours! Now if only I could get the land.😊thanks, so refreshing. Love
Looks like you grew up in Paradise! Simply beautiful.
I love your mother's garden. A lot of different plants and trees around.
