Because of you, I left my hometown and moved across the state to attend College for horticulture. My first essay topic was "who inspired you?" I of course wrote my essay about you and how you inspire not only me, but MANY. Got a 100% A. Thank you so much for starting this channel, sharing your passion over the years and helping others find love for gardening and growing food! In finding my passion, I've been blessed to grow in my faith and attain much needed sobriety. So, seriously, thank you for all you do!
2021 was a very difficult year. Our 11 year old son passed away on February 15th. Our lives were shattered. I was depressed and living & breathing was difficult. I came across Laura’s channel one day and was amazed by her gardens. I always loved gardening but never paid attention to the plant requirements. I started a memorial garden for my son Haiden last year in October. Cleared out a space that only had 3 fruit trees. My sister had a tiller machine. I sketched a layout I wanted on paper & used a garden hose to define my garden bed. From there I tilled the soil, added in mushroom compost and soil conditioner I found at Home Depot. I ordered about a hundred plants from a nursery which they delivered to me. Then I saw Laura’s video on bulbs and ordered them from Color’s blends as well for a few hundred daffodils of different varieties, Spanish bluebells, snowflakes, hyacinths, crocus, tulips. I’m in zone 8A so I had to pre chilled a lot of my bulbs that required the cold treatment. Working in my son’s memorial garden was therapeutic but also very emotional. This spring I had a very beautiful showing of flowers. I also started lots of seeds indoors in the winter when I saw another one of her videos & planted them out in the spring. His garden is beautiful. Our lives will never be the same again w/o our son’s physical presence & this journey is difficult but his garden is helping me with some kind of healing process. Now we have a lot of pollinators, butterflies, birds, hummingbird and even the red Cardinal coming to his garden. I feel his presence when I’m in his garden. It’s his way of telling me he’s always near me. Thank you Laura for inspiring me to work in the garden again when I lost hope in living. I’ve expanded the garden to include a cut flower area so I can have fresh bouquets in the house and also created raised beds to growing fruits and vegetables. Your channel has helped me with my grief. It’s still a journey and always will be. Blessings 🙏🏼
So good to hear your healing story. Sounds beautiful..I think of my parents when I'm outside, they loved gardening. Nature is a quiet place to enjoy our love ones. 🫂 hugs
My 15yo daughter passed away at the beginning of 2019. I thought my life was over and I just felt numb. I started watching your channel earlier this year and have finally found some joy in watching you and planting flowers. Thank you for all your enthusiasm and being so friendly.
My husband & I are first year gardeners and I learned so much watching your channel. We were successful at growing tomatoes, green beans, onions, cucumbers, pumpkins, sunflowers and many other flowers. We failed with the radishes and carrots however being first timers, I’m so proud of us!
I’m 70 years old and just started my flower beds after losing my daughter and husband within 9 months of each other . You and your family inspire me so much with all your beautiful flowers
My heart & prayers go out to you! May friends, family & the Comforter put His arms around you day & night! Love from one who gets what you are going through!💔😘💝🌻
As an older person who has been in the garden/nursery industry for 35 years I am thrilled to know the torch of this passion is definitely being lit in younger folks. Taking care of ourselves, our families and our planet has never been more important. Kudos to GA channel and all who inspire this passion! 👏
I can't begin to tell you all how much you inspire me! When my dad died in March of 21 I was lost and just really got into my small backyard. I really wish you could see it. YOU WOULD BE PROUD! This year was 90% proven winners and OMG! My local garden center said I had a postcard backyard! Thank you thank you!! My husband says I get my Laura on when I'm walking around the backyard talking about all my flowers!! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! Never stop posting please!!
I planted several spring bulbs a few years ago. The squirrels dug them up and ate them! Think I will be planting more bulbs this year. The Keukenhof Gardens in Amsterdam are amazing. We were stations in Germany many years ago and took a trip to the gardens. I had never seen so many tulips in one place. A must see if you ever get the chance to go.
I haven't gardened in almost 8 years due to an injury, and through that time, my garden lay abandoned and overgrown. I started watching your videos this year and my husband and I have been rebuilding the beautiful garden we'd lost to neglect. I'm so glad we found your channel.
I’m so thankful I found this channel this year. I lost my passion for gardening after my husband was diagnosed with cancer, 2 years in a row, I’m so blessed that we have great Drs who saved his life. I had to let my gardens go to take care of him and everything else besides treatment. I found Garden Answers late spring and it has fired me up to start planting and taking care of my plants again, they’ve suffered badly. Laura, Thank you!!!
@kimmy0868 ~ I am so sorry to hear about your husbands' cancer diagnosis. I am very happy to hear he is in remission. I pray 🙏 that he continues to stay healthy and cancer-free. Cancer is such a horrible disease for anyone to go through.
Gardening is so therapeutic to me. Yes, it is hard work but there is a peace about it. Your labor always seems to pay off. Yet the best part for me is, I take this time for me! I call it my "God and me time"! I enjoy the planting and watching the maturity of the plants, enjoying every gorgeous live bloom! Most of all, I spend this time working in my garden talking to God! Prayer is a wonderful thing, but my personal relationship with God Almighty has grown tremendously through my alone time in my garden just talking with him.It's wonderful to hear you have gained back your passion for gardening. I will pray for your husbands healing and for the strength you need in your life to take care of him, physically and mentally. May God bless you both.
So exciting! I think I’m going to order some bulbs for every Kindergarten student at my school. I’ve been wanting to have students grow something in our school garden and call it “Growing A Sweet Kinder-Garden” by our Kindergartners 😍
I'm in the process right now of revitalizing my long garden bed along our backyard driveway parking pad... weeding and pulling out plants that just aren't performing well, cutting back dead wood on a neglected shrub rose (I haven't been able to do this in the last 8 years, because of fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome). But last summer I started container gardening with vegetables on our deck, (I still plant flowers in containers too), and the activity keeps me moving and helps keep me flexible. If course there are bad days (flare ups) where I can't get the things done in my gardening that I want to. But this year I've seen some improvement physically, and I'm so glad I started on the big long flower bed. I added some strawberry plants in this border/bed, and have tucked some edibles (cherry tomatoes, pepper plants and just recently a zucchini and a yellow squash). I've loosened the soil (not with a tiller, but a tool that has times and you twist it and it loosens the soil, and is great for pulling up new areas that were overgrown with crabgrass and weeds). I've also been adding amendments like mushroom compost and coffee grounds, blood meal, and topsoil to replenish depleted soil. I'm not done yet, it's been a summer long process, of getting out there and some days being able to get a lot done, and other days very little accomplished. But I divided some Mt. Hood daffodils and moved the extra bulbs near the strawberries. I added two blue balloon flowers next to a yellow daylily. And I've accidentally dug up some hyacinth bulbs, and replanted them too. I now look at this flower bed and imagine what I can plant to fill in the gaps where I've cleared. I do have some tulip bulbs in there, but not enough. My Pink Impression tulips we're planted many years ago, and there's a few other tulips that have been choked out by weeds, etc. With the soil amendments I've made, I'm excited about planting some Spring bulbs to fill in the empty gaps, and to have that beautiful view from my kitchen door when I look out at this flower bed! Love Colorblends bulbs, have gazed at their selections online for years! (Got my sister hooked on Colorblends bulbs too, she loves loves their selections). So count me in for this chance to win 100 bulbs from Colorblends bulbs!! Thanks for sharing this offer from them. They're the BEST!
For some reason, I had to wait until I reached the age of 78 before I became a passionate lover of gardening/landscaping. Your program has been a catalyst for that and I thank you. In spite of my degree in Agriculture, I never seemed to find the time to practice what I was taught in horticulture classes. Now that I have the time I am regaining my enthusiasm and soaking up the latest information. You have become my trusted source and seeing you surrounded with so much beauty and family love is a thing to treasure. Thank you 😃so much for being you!
Having lived all my life in Hawaii, this was the first year I have ever experienced a "Spring" season, any season for that matter. (We had a beautiful year-round tropical climate, no seasons) I just moved to Washington a year ago and as I drove around and watched flowers blooming and leaves turning color all over the place. it was amazing and confusing to me at the same time. I searched the internet and you-tube to learn as much as I could. I was always a step behind. But thankfully, once I found Garden Answer, my entire world shifted. Thanks to your wisdom and sharing, Laura, I have the beginnings of a plan in motion for the upcoming year. Got a few bulbs ordered to be sure I don't totally miss my window, YAY! I've managed to watch approximately 4 past seasons, starting from your first video. I'd probably be further, but every time I watch your daily vlog release (morning coffee ritual) or a past video I have to run out to a garden center, uproot some of the previous owners landscape and/or plant something!!! Thank you for giving me the courage to tear out a lot of the old (probably original owners 60 year old landscape) and make it my own. First time in 50 years I feel like I've done something solely for me. ***mom of 4 fantastic now adult kids and wife of an engineer (aka.... "landscape and gardening? but why?" buildings and tools are all that makes sense.) Mahalo nui Loa Laura and Aaron for your ongoing education and inspiration. I need it.
What a wonderful story! How fun to be able to make the landscape your own! We recently moved onto a new construction property and are doing all the landscaping design and work ourselves. It is a lot of fun. (also the wife of an engineer here haha)
I'm a teacher the last few years have been extremely challenging seeing that burst of color in the spring makes me feel so hopeful. I alway share them with my students and it always brightens up my classroom! Thank you so much for all your videos!
Wow! So many great comments. What a wonderful group of followers this is. Clearly Laura, Aaron and those darling kiddo’s (and the cats!) have touched the hearts of us all and in more ways than gardening. We are so blessed to have them sharing their lives with us. May your days continue to be filled with peace, love, joy, and compassion. ❤
I’ve become a Garden Answer groupie! Now in my 70’s I have time to garden and it’s keeping me from just sitting and losing muscle! I just hope when I’m gone those who come to this property will appreciate and keep the garden going! I start my mornings with you, Laura, either on the patio on my phone or inside with breakfast on the TV! Either way & any season, I keep my garden fix fed with GA! Keep up the great work you do!!!
My son was diagnosed with Autism about two years ago and I have felt so overwhelmed with all the information and appointments need for my little guy. I found your channel at random and became hooked. You inspired me to start gardening and it helped me find some calm in the storm that has become my life these days. My son loves to help me in the garden and gets so excited when he sees all the fruits and vegetables we get to pick. I look forward to your channel every morning and I feel blessed to have found and developed this passion at a time in my life when I needed it most. Thank you for all the inspiration and joy you have brought to my life.
Your comment speaks to me. I, too, am a special needs mom. Gardening was my passion before I had my son, but I lost it after he was born and got caught up in the endless doctors' appts and exhaustion it all brought. I found Laura one day by chance and have been hooked ever since. She has helped me to reignite my passion and get the much needed therapy that working in the garden brings me. I really don't think she knows how she has touched our lives in so many different ways, bringing each of us that little something we need at this very moment. I'm glad you found her and started to feed your soul. I'm glad I found her too. Cheers to you, Mama!
Hey ladies! I am also a special needs mom who is hooked on Garden Answer. I come from a long line of gardeners but struggled to find my own green thumb. In fact, I was a serial killer when it came to plants for a long time. I almost gave up but a friend of mine gave me a houseplant for Christmas years ago that I named Matilda because it meant mighty in battle (or something like that). I figured she needed a strong moniker if she was going to make it in my house. My husband nicknamed her Ma-killed-da. Ha! But somehow Matilda survived. I found Garden Answer and began my planting journey. Usually, I try to get up early and tend to the garden before my son is awake. It is quiet time for me and a relaxing way to start my day. Jacob will help me sometimes but only when/if the weather is perfect. Only if we all had that luxury.
Because of you, Laura, I work in a garden center! It’s such a therapeutic job for me. One in which I find a great deal of joy helping others find the perfect plant. I can only do that because of all I’ve learned from you over the last three years about various flowers and other plants. I love being outside with plants and all their beauty. My father was an avid gardener too, and all four of us kids have beautiful edible gardens because of him. We didn’t enjoy gardening as kids, but we all love it as adults. Thank you for teaching me so much about gardening! I’ve overcome several struggles I’ve had for year’s in my garden because of what I’ve learned from you. ♥️
I’ve gotten many compliments from neighbors on how I’ve improved our landscaping and I owe it to your channel. Adding patches of tulips would just be icing on the cake!
I have found constant inspiration as well as comfort from this channel. Laura, you and Aaron (as well as your littles and the kitties), are gems in a world that can get a little messy and a little loud. I know when I tune in with my morning coffee I will be met with a can-do attitude, brilliant ideas, beautiful plants, and gorgeous scenery. Thank you for the wealth of information and knowledge that you so willingly share with all of us. I think we're all better gardeners (probably better people, too!) due to your influence. Love to all of you!
I was not much of a gardener until I gloriously came about you, Laura! I became my 93 year old Dads caregiver and inherited his yard that needed much help. Every morning at 6a I tune into GA to start my day with hope and excitement! His garden is growing again thanks to you Laura! You're the best!
I am in Zone 5b. I never knew my gardening zone nor had I ever cared. I have been watching Laura and her family for only about 8 months now. Wow! Laura and her family have sparked a fire in me that I never knew existed. In April of this year I had a greenhouse built and I am proud of it and I have been spreading the green thumb “bug” everywhere I go. Thank you Laura for the knowledge, inspiration, encouragement, and joy that you bring to me and many others🌸💐🌺🌷🌼🌻🌹. Love, 5b
Laura, you have changed my life.... I have had very rough year fighting depression, and if it wasn't for you and this channel, I'm not sure I would have been able to see all the beauty in the world around me. So thank you!!!
Almost 50 years ago, I scrimped on groceries to buy a package of three red tulip bulbs. They have multiplied and divided. I love them. They are the highlight of Spring in my yard. Two years ago after watching Laura’s video, I bought another package of ten. Today, I watched this video of all the varieties of bulbs. I had no idea. I am hooked. I want all the beautiful colors, textures and varieties. Thank you, Laura. You inspired me. #ColorBlooms #springcolorsgalore #GardenAnswer
Thank you for all the possibilities you bring! One of my favorite posters I have seen says, "Off to the garden I go...to lose my mind, and find my soul." There are so many health benefits from gardening both physically and mentally. I thank you for sharing your passion for gardening and the way you work through issues with the rest of the Garden answer world. We all truly benefit from you sharing your family's journey.
Growing up, my mom was an avid gardener. She transformed the 5 acres we lived on with beautiful beds, and she’d be outside working on them long past dark every day. I was never into it. She helped me develop a perennial bed at my home when I became an adult, and now I’m always telling her about “Laura’s videos” and what I learn. Thank you for converting me!
Thanks, Aaron and Laura, for the encouragement to pull out our knee pads and get dirt under our fingernails! My Dutch heritage has always given me a soft spot in my heart for these beautiful spring flowers! Thanks, Color Blend, for the special opportunity to brighten up our gardens! :)
My father passed away last month, he has been sick the past several years. This year I moved in with my parents to help my mom with my dad before he passed away. Through this season I have brought back my parents flower gardens that haven’t been touch in the last few years. What a mess that they were but with your videos and a few other TH-camrs I have learn a lot about gardening and my parents gardens are becoming beautiful once again. Thank you for all that you do.
Laura, you excite others , and you are so engaging when you talk about plants/flowers. I love it when you get so exited and filled with the anticipation of a new season, with new options and plans. Its almost comparable to a little girl in a candy store, and you can’t decide which candy to pick, because they will all look and taste so good! You are an absolute pleasure to watch and such a welcome addition to my day, ALWAYS! 😊☘️🌾🌼🌸
I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning. Because of you guys, when I bought my house, I bought it because of the untouched garden potential on my half acre. The house is great, but the potential this land had is what sold me. It’s been a crazy few years developing this blank slate, but I love every minute of it. You never fail to inspire me to keep working on it. That being said, a lot my size totally swallows stuff up so 100 bulbs would be really helpful! 😃
In my late sixties, as my daughter was finishing her college years I discovered Garden Answer. It was right around the time Laura and Aaron moved to this new property. After years as a single parent I knew my daughter (who was married, husband was in the military living away from her the entire 4 years of college but would visit) would be on her way to join him and I needed to renew my own personal goals. How more perfect could it have been to renew my love of gardening through Garden Answer! I garden on a small scale and it has been and continues to be the focus of my life. I am less mobile these days but I have the tools and knowledge I need through my viewing of Garden Answer. I’m so grateful as I imagine it would be somewhat difficult to simply be on my own these days. I have tea and coffee with Laura and Aaron. I look forward to relaxing and instructive viewings and the fun of Laura sharing her family members-ESPECIALLY her Mother, whom I adore. Thank You Guys for everything!!
Laura and Aaron, thank you for all the time and inspiration you put into all your videos. Every morning I can't wait to grab a cup of coffee, sit out on the patio and watch your videos. And your kids are adorable! I retired this year from having a preschool and daycare in my home for 33 years, so the yard is getting a big transformation. My husband says thank you Garden Answer every time he has to build me something or haul dirt. 😂 The Greenhouse is going up this week. But I did notice my husband is enjoying all the pretty plants and produce from the garden. I have not planted too many bulbs over the years, so I'm looking forward to having some early spring color. Your place is absolutely stunning and it makes me excited to keep planting. I hope to drop into your parents Garden Center one day. God Bless!
I love your videos! I live in northern Utah and I have a west facing front garden East racing back garden this last year we lost all of our grass in the backyard. But all of our plants and flowers look wonderful. We've decided to do several large garden areas with lots of different drought loving plants, trees, and put in turf and Rock. I desperately need bulbs for spring color. I have a lot of late blooming perennial.
Oh my! 🥰 hearing you say “Keukenhof” is absolutely adorable! I am from the Netherlands. Just a drive of 2 hours and I can be there. Can you even believe I have never been there?! Thanks for inspiring me to go now. Where I think this is a normal thing and never made the afford to go, I know think I should make the afford! You and Arron are amazing and because of your videos I got so much inspiration for my own garden plans. We are slowly working our way trough them
Hi Laura! I discovered your channel about 1.5-2 years ago and have since fallen in love with gardening. As a nurse of 15 years, I often need a space to decompress and a place I can escape to in order to take care of myself. The garden has become that space and has been a sort of therapy for me. About 10 months ago I also lost my best friend of 34 years after the birth of her 3rd baby girl due to an infection in her brain. I’ve needed my garden therapy more than ever as a space to heal and reflect. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and love of all things gardening. It’s because of you I have learned to slow down and appreciate all the beautiful things in our harsh world.
As a kid, I always had a passion for plants and it bloomed, even more, when I started watching your channel for over 4 years when I was 16. I live in NYC but my parents recently brought a home in Pennsylvania, allowing me to start an actual garden. Thank you so much for the inspiration and joy that you spread through your videos. They have got me through so much and are always the highlight of my day. God bless you and your family
Some of my best childhood memories are running through the fields full of bluebells and daffodils. We used to go and visit the cave where the fairies lived and there was, and still is, daffodils all over making it look magical. I live in Florida now and I'm learning which bulbs can be planted in the South. Thank you for all the beautiful inspiration!
When I retired a few years ago, I had no idea how I would spend my time. Then I discovered YOU!! I'm in Utah, high desert like you, so I know that if you plant it, I can too! I even planned a trip to see my son in the Boise area so I could make a trip over to Andrew's Seed. Loved talking with your mom! Bought a couple of plants, & can't wait till they grow up! Thank you! Every morning starts with Garden Answer!
My son is getting married in my back yard this September, so I dug new flowerbeds and watched Gardenanswer religiously and learned so much. I am now obsessed with flowers! I would love some Fall bulbs! 🙏
My five year old and I love to garden together. She gets so excited when the daffodils and tulips start to bloom in the spring. She’d love to get some new bulbs to plant!
Last fall was my first venture into planting bulbs for spring! Because of my particular space, I tried containers for my bulbs and was SO excited to plant about 80 bulbs in quite a few different pots. Sadly, they all rotted, BUT I'm going to try again because YOU inspire me! Thank you for all of your hard work; I hope you know how many of us really appreciate it!
Try to put the pots so they don’t get any wet in the pots during winter but beeing outside to get the cold. I acctually put some plastic over a couple of pots I couldn’t move. Try no water untill you see some growth in spring and then just little water from time to time untill they are big plants.
Thanks for keeping us challenged and motivated! Because of you and Aaron and your mom (Susan) and let's not forget your dad, our garden is one of the highlights of our neighborhood.
I'm so happy to find this channel. I've ordered 150 bulbs to put around my tree when you first placed your order for your bulbs and was going through what you wanted. I'm so excited to plant them when they arrive.
Thank you so much for all of the inspiration and knowledge. We lost our home 2 years ago in the Alameda fire in Souther Oregon and your videos helped in so many ways for us to plan and execute our new garden spaces. This spring we were finally able to start working out in our yard. My husband and I gather so much from your videos and post that you share. We finally got our power planted this year. Wow such a game changer. Thank you again for all that you do for a passionate community of beginner, novice and expert gardeners.
Hi Laura I am just another one of your great admirers who thought I'd take a moment to let you know how you and your family touch so many. I have watched you for several years now but within this past year was diagnosed with breast cancer but I am doing well partially because of you. Obviously I love gardening but watching you and your spirit and determination in your garden has inspired me to keep going so that I can get back into my garden and I have. I am coming out the other side of a scary tunnel but you and your family have been a wonderful distraction and inspiration that have made me smile along the way. I know that you do get alot of messages like this but in case you didn't know your calling and gift is far more than just gardening or working in the dirt; you are a special kind of flower that grows in people's hearts 💕 Thank God for you and yours and thank you Laura 😊 💖
I love how you don’t just show all the good that happens, you show mishaps also. You make me want to try new kinds of plants. Absolutely love how your cats always make an appearance.
I absolutely love hanging out in my screened in garage with my five cats every morning watching you videos. I feel off when I don’t get that opportunity every morning. Thanks for doing what you do. P.S. you and your husband remind me of me and mine I love seeing that creative and technical make wonderful couples.
This giveaway comes at the perfect time! We are closing on our first home tomorrow, August 9 and I have been planning my fall planting, especially my bulb order! I have learned so much from this channel over the years. Everything from your knowledge of plants to your work ethic and the love you have for what you do and especially that you get to share it with the ones you love is so inspiring. Thank you for everything that you do.
@Linda Lou ~ Congratulations on closing your first home🏡, tomorrow! That is one of the most exciting times of our lives.👏👏 I wish you and your family many, many happy years, filled with fun and great memories in your new home!!!! 🤞🤞🤞🤞Crossing my fingers, for you, that you win a bulb giveaway!
I look forward to your show every morning with my 1st cup of coffee, a great start for the day! Last spring we had a beautiful display of bulbs, but after they bloomed a gopher took out most of them. The previous fall we had dug out all the soil in the flower bed and lined it with hardware cloth and secured it with landscape staples, in hopes of preventing more gopher activity. Then we added the dirt back in and the plants. We managed to catch one gopher and I’ve had no more activity since, so I’m hoping to start over again this coming fall with more bulbs. Crossing my fingers and toes that this works!
Hi Laura! I started following you before Covid hit, so I have seen how transformative your beautiful home, garden, and family has been over the years! I purchased my first order from Colorblends last year and needless to say, I'm hooked and have already been looking at reordering from them. Thank you so much for sharing your love for gardening, family, and all things unique with us! ❤️
Laura, I love how you group your tulips together. I admit I never quite knew what to do so I would plant tulips and little rows in planters and it looked kind of odd. I’m definitely loving the more scattered clumpings that you do in an area. Since I’ve been watching you, I’ve switched over to color blends as well. In the past, I bought bulbs at the local discount store, and quite frankly, many of them never even came up the following year. Those have all pretty much gone away by now, so now I’m reaping the benefits of the beautiful bulbs I’ve been planting in the last couple of years. I still have a long way to go, but I think you would like what I’m doing. I get a lot of compliments - the whole neighborhood gets to enjoy my front landscaping. ❤️🌷❤️🌷❤️
Tulips are such a sign of cheer, I love seeing them in barrels and up near the houses in neighborhoods. These are so pretty, the colors are so saturated and plants look strong.
I work as a paraprofessional at a high school middle school, so I have summer time off. Every morning I enjoy a cup of tea and watch your videos. I've realized that it's not only the videos with all the planting and garden info I enjoy but rather Laura's life outlook, positive energy and love for all living things. I'm so grateful for you Laura. 💓
What a great sweepstake opportunity! I rent, and the sideyard works as my front door. It was unruly with weeds, dying trees, and the other renters project car. After successfully getting the car removed, I started a flower garden next to the side gate and a vegetable garden next to the road side. Even built a 2 leveled wood garden bed following your tutorial. Now its transformed into a more welcoming entrance thanks to your videos.
I always enjoy going to Andrew's, even if I can always afford anything. Your family is so down to earth. I've seen Aaron and Benjamin several times. I have not had the nerve to go up and say, "hi" and tell him how much I enjoy watching the TH-cam channel. I have not yet seen you there but, I'm sure I will at some point. I'm just getting my garden started my whole back hard was bare and all dirt I hope to have a separate space for the garden and and area for the dogs and am starting a Potager Garden next to the deck. Thank you for your channel I have need the help for growing here in SW Idaho. I'm from Western Washington originally and it's completely different.
Every year I save up and buy as many alliums as possible. They are just so interesting and whimsical to me. I can never talk myself into adding to the spring show. I love seeing all the spring bulbs Laura plants each season. One of these years Laura is going to talk me into branching out!
Seeing bulbs showing bursts of color in the gardens around your property is a wonderful spring alarm clock. It’s time! 😉Time to get outside and see what’s popping up in the NC mountains. Your mentioning ‘color the grass’ is now my fall planting plan. My beds are filled with many of the shrubs that flower seasonally or have leaf color variations I’ve researched from your sessions. Thanks Laura and Aron for the good humor, tips and delightful videos. You even make hot sweaty dirty tasks rewarding when the big picture shows what can happen with ‘a bit’ of hand digging in my own yard.
My mom (in her 60’s) is just finallyyyyy putting in a new front garden bed. She’s lived in her house for 5 years, and she’s done wonderful things to make her back gardens but has dragged her heels on removing the giant privets and split arbs in her front. This year she pulled the trigger and ripped them oooouuuutttttt!!!! I would love to pack that out with bulbs for a spring surprise.
Laura, you're going to love the fritillarias. I've had them for years and they naturalized freely by scattering seed around. They pop up all over the place and have such a charming, magical look. One of my favorite bulbs!
Since I’ve been a child, I’ve dreamed of a home with beautiful landscaping. Well maintained grass and beautiful flower beds that fit perfectly around the grounds. I have learned so much from your channel and thank God that I found you on TH-cam. From your layouts to your planters, your ideas have never cease to educate! We live on a lake and boaters come by to see each year what is growing! I can wait to plant some bulbs to amaze! Really wish you lived closer for ideas, but your channel is the next best thing! God Bless!
I don't miss a day since I retired that I don't get up and watch your show. I love gardening, love all you do with your family. Not only do you share your gardening knowledge and beautiful gardens. You show the love of your family that I wish I had my family is just too busy. Thanks for including your family memories your making ! Love you and your family ❤️!
I look forward everyday to Garden Answers ❤️ As I grab my cup of coffee in morning, I tell my sweet pug Gabby, “Let’s see what Laura & Aaron are up to today”. I’m a lifelong gardener and still glean so much from you; one freeing encouragement I have taken from you is, if it’s not meeting your expectations & bringing you joy, then get rid of it! Its been wonderful removing those particular plants & shrubs and reclaiming that valuable real estate for fresh plantings. Thank you for sharing your sweet family with us. Prayers that your mom has a full & speedy recovery 🙏 May the Lord continue to bless you. Oh, and looking forward to the interview with your mom & hoping you’ll do one with your dad. Loving the bulb selections on this episode too ❤️🌹👩🌾
I’ve never been a big fan of bulbs in my garden. Always love seeing them other places but never really thought I could have them myself. Well your making me think I can! This coming year I’m hoping to have a few types added to my garden beds! You have inspired me to start 3 new beds in my plain & boring backyard. It’s finally starting to look like a happy place!
I am in my early 60s. Because of you, I was able to adventure into gardening. I was always afraid to kill a plant, or planting something in one spot and later regret it. Now, I take risks and I am enjoying gardening. Thank for inspiring us!
I love your channel, of course for all your beautiful plants and knowledge, but just as important to me is when you share your beautiful children and family with us. I found your channel during the pandemic and appreciated the wholesomeness and beauty your channel offered to escape from the horror going on in the world. Thank you, Laura and Aaron.
As a landscaper it is so wonderful to see how appreciate you are for everything you guys do! It’s incredible to watch you inspire beautiful gardens. Love it!
This makes me excited to plant bulbs this fall. 😍 I have learned so much from you Laura. And yes that hyacinth stings and itch even planting those bulbs you'd feel it. I accidentally dug out one and those sting/itchy sap went through my gloves. It's that strong you guys. Love all of your bulb choices. I wish I will have the time to plant bulbs this year. It looks so glorious. 😍
Your videos have been such a huge help for me. I recently purchased a home and the yard was a mess. With your help I am bringing new life and beauty back to the landscape. Needless to say, I am happy with the results and so are my neighbors, thanks to you.😊
Spring bulbs are my absolute favorite thing to shop for when it comes to gardening! There’s something so magical about waiting for those first pops of color to emerge after a long winter!🥰
I've been watching you from the very beginning. You're so inspiring and I have learned so much from you. Gardening has always been a passion of mine, but what I learn from you lights an extra fire for me. I just built a new house in Utah and am so excited to start from scratch here and implement some of these beautiful bulbs this fall!! Thanks to both of you!
I love the color early spring bulbs provide in my frigid zone 5 garden!! I was raised in California and did not realize how amazing springtime is after a long dark Illinois winter. Spring truly is a rebirth and it makes your soul sing to see the new green growth and colorful blooms pushing up to greet you 🥰
Hey Laura, I am from Ontario Canada Zone 6b as well! I’m new to gardening (I have no idea what I am doing) but I’m trying! I love watching your videos to learn and to see all the beautiful gardens you have. Thank you for opening up your space for all of us to enjoy every morning! It’s so inspirational and motivating for me and I’m sure so many more! I never thought I’d try taking up gardening as a hobby, but here we are 😂 Maybe not the best year to start due to lack of rain, it’s barely rained at all for months now and it’s been very hot and humid here! I hope you have a great day!
Thank you Laura for the inspiration you provide. My husband and I built our dream home recently and now I have my dream gardens thanks to you. “Running errands” means I’m buying groceries and plants. I couldn’t have managed our massive flower beds if your channel hadn’t taught me so much about plant varieties and given me the courage to keep planting. 💕
@Stephanie V ~ Congratulations on the dream home 🏡 for you and your husband!!! Good luck, in the future years, of expanding and growing your garden beds!!!
For the first time in my life I have a yard to plant in. I joke that I'm a recovering perfectionist and gardening has taught me patience and surrender. Thank you for your very pragmatic approach to gardening and reassuring me that I'm not alone in trying new things that don't always work out like I imagined!
Always a pleasure to see your excitement when showing us what you’ve ordered, be it bulbs, seeds or whatever! I promised my sister I wouldn’t order anymore bulbs because I had so much last year but after seeing your order…we’ll I may have to break my promise 😂
A year ago we moved onto 40 acres and I wanted to have a beautiful garden. I started watching your channel and you’ve inspired me so much! We went from nothing to garden beds all around the house. It’s a lot of work but so rewarding. I have learned so much from watching Garden Answer and every morning after I tend my garden, my treat is to come inside to cool off and watch the happenings going on in your beautiful property.
It's the most wonderful time of the year!! (*Singing it like the Christmas song* ) In all seriousness, I am in the midst of planing my gardens for next year because I am following a dream to start a flower farm because of you! You have taught me so much about gardening and I can't thank you enough! I would never have the confidence to do this without all of the knowledge I've gained from you throughout the years! Thank you Laura and Aaron for being an inspiration for all of us!
Two years ago I planted 100 daffodils on the side of the road at my house. Every spring, people enjoy the view as they walk or ride bikes down to the State Forest at the end of our road. Last fall I planted 200 tulips, in the front yard inside our deer fence. Once more, passersby get to enjoy the view. How fun! Like you, I love the Mentons!
Ah, yes. Annual reminder to order my bulbs for Fall planting! I got into outdoor gardening a bit later last year but still had an amazing show from my January-planting of tulips in containers (zone 7B)! I look forward to hearing the familiar "Hey guys, how's it going?" every morning. As always, thank you so much for what you guys do
Bless your beautiful souls Laura, Aaron & the entire GA team! I planted my first tree this year thanks to the knowledge & wisdom I have learned from this channel over the years. After dreaming (literally) and much prep, we planted our first Redpointe Maple tree. My local garden center ordered them in after 2 seasons of me requesting. I would not have the confidence w/o all I have learned from GA. You both bring such positive & inspirational joy to our lives. Excellent info & editing. It takes a tremendous amount of work to be a creator & you both kill it! Can’t wait to order some bulbs! 💜
I have never planted so many bulbs until watching your channel. I wish I had room for all of the bulbs I love. I started ordering from ColorBlends after seeing your bulbs. The first year I ordered from them was the year COVID hit. Those spring flowers saved my sanity! I am a teacher and when we had to teach from home it was just so isolating and a scary time that I looked forward to being able to go outside and look at those beautiful flowers. Thanks so much!
You inspired me to plant 500 bulbs last fall, the most we’ve planted in one season. Was so excited to see them come up this spring. Won’t be planting that many this year, but want to try several new (to us) varieties We grow mostly daffodils as the deer leave them alone, while they love the tulips. I have found if I spray the area with Plantskydd our tulips do better. I take care of the gardens for a local city, so lots of room for many more bulbs!
We live out in the country and our "fence row" is lined with various bulbs, primarily daffodils, and what a spectacular display they make in the spring. Love your channel and what an inspiration you have been. Thank you.
Oh my gosh, I can't wait to see your spring display next year. I'm sure it will be beautiful as always! Thank you for always being so positive and uplifting and for all the inspiration over the years. I fell in love with gardening when I volunteered for the horticulture department at the Denver zoo 7 years ago and that love lead me to finding you on TH-cam! I've been watching religiously ever since, and I have learned so much from you. Thank you as always!
I'm in an apartment complex and have been the volunteer gardener for 5 years. I love all your videos they get me motivated to use your ideas in a smaller way. I especially love your container ideas. You get me through winter! I also love Colorblends they have beautiful combos. Thank you for inspiring all of us.
I just ordered my second round of daffodils from Colorblends two days ago! It’s never been something I put the work into but since I’ve started watching your channel I figured I’d give it a shot. My yard looked beautiful in the spring! Thank you for introducing me to a whole new world of bulbs!
I love tulips! Every year the town I grew up in has a tulip festival. It's so fun to go and look at all the different varieties each year! This year I am hoping to add some to our garden.
The Colorblends bulbs are some of the very best! I planted my first batch of their bulbs last fall and such an impressive show this spring! Cannot wait to add more of these beauties to my garden 🥰
Hi Laura and Aaron! In 2019, we had several tornadoes on Cape Cod, one of which took all our 14 trees….I lost my will to garden…but I found your channel…now we have a vegetable garden with raised beds, a greenhouse with hydroponics, a hedge with arborvitae and little limelight hydrangeas as well as a border with Denim’n lace Russian sage and Annabelle hydrangeas and so much more! Huge thank you to both of you!!!

Because of you, I left my hometown and moved across the state to attend College for horticulture. My first essay topic was "who inspired you?" I of course wrote my essay about you and how you inspire not only me, but MANY. Got a 100% A. Thank you so much for starting this channel, sharing your passion over the years and helping others find love for gardening and growing food! In finding my passion, I've been blessed to grow in my faith and attain much needed sobriety. So, seriously, thank you for all you do!
Way to go! Congrats!! I’ve been gardening lots and adding to my garden too bc of this channel!!
Dang I thought I should win til I read your comment 🙂. Congratulations on your exciting journey!
A true testimony. Lora is such a blessing to so many. Thank you for sharing and the best of luck to you.
Beautiful testimony.. Enjoy your life's journey.. may God bless your life and bring abundance and joy.
I am so happy God brought Laura to your life. She does so much for so many.
2021 was a very difficult year. Our 11 year old son passed away on February 15th. Our lives were shattered. I was depressed and living & breathing was difficult. I came across Laura’s channel one day and was amazed by her gardens. I always loved gardening but never paid attention to the plant requirements. I started a memorial garden for my son Haiden last year in October. Cleared out a space that only had 3 fruit trees. My sister had a tiller machine. I sketched a layout I wanted on paper & used a garden hose to define my garden bed. From there I tilled the soil, added in mushroom compost and soil conditioner I found at Home Depot. I ordered about a hundred plants from a nursery which they delivered to me. Then I saw Laura’s video on bulbs and ordered them from Color’s blends as well for a few hundred daffodils of different varieties, Spanish bluebells, snowflakes, hyacinths, crocus, tulips. I’m in zone 8A so I had to pre chilled a lot of my bulbs that required the cold treatment. Working in my son’s memorial garden was therapeutic but also very emotional. This spring I had a very beautiful showing of flowers. I also started lots of seeds indoors in the winter when I saw another one of her videos & planted them out in the spring. His garden is beautiful. Our lives will never be the same again w/o our son’s physical presence & this journey is difficult but his garden is helping me with some kind of healing process. Now we have a lot of pollinators, butterflies, birds, hummingbird and even the red Cardinal coming to his garden. I feel his presence when I’m in his garden. It’s his way of telling me he’s always near me. Thank you Laura for inspiring me to work in the garden again when I lost hope in living. I’ve expanded the garden to include a cut flower area so I can have fresh bouquets in the house and also created raised beds to growing fruits and vegetables. Your channel has helped me with my grief. It’s still a journey and always will be. Blessings 🙏🏼
What a beautiful way to honor your son. Thank you for sharing such an intimate and vulnerable part of your life with us. I bet his garden is stunning!
I started to write long message for you but I found non the words where enough, so stopped deleted the message. I can only say Thank you for sharing.
A mother's (and father's) worse nightmare. So sorry you had to go through this.
So good to hear your healing story. Sounds beautiful..I think of my parents when I'm outside, they loved gardening. Nature is a quiet place to enjoy our love ones. 🫂 hugs

My 15yo daughter passed away at the beginning of 2019. I thought my life was over and I just felt numb. I started watching your channel earlier this year and have finally found some joy in watching you and planting flowers. Thank you for all your enthusiasm and being so friendly.
❤️🙏🏻
So sorry for your loss, there is no pain like the one you have. My prayer is you find some small peace in the garden. Xo
@@gardengypsy70 thank you ❤️
Sorry for you loss
My husband & I are first year gardeners and I learned so much watching your channel. We were successful at growing tomatoes, green beans, onions, cucumbers, pumpkins, sunflowers and many other flowers. We failed with the radishes and carrots however being first timers, I’m so proud of us!
I’m 70 years old and just started my flower beds after losing my daughter and husband within 9 months of each other . You and your family inspire me so much with all your beautiful flowers
My heart & prayers go out to you! May friends, family & the Comforter put His arms around you day & night! Love from one who gets what you are going through!💔😘💝🌻
So sorry for your loss 💔
Hey Janet! You won! Congratulations!! You can email us at winner@gardenanswer.com with your shipping address and the bulbs you would like!
Congratulations Janet, may these flowers provide a little sunshine & happiness in your heart.
As an older person who has been in the garden/nursery industry for 35 years I am thrilled to know the torch of this passion is definitely being lit in younger folks. Taking care of ourselves, our families and our planet has never been more important. Kudos to GA channel and all who inspire this passion! 👏
I can't begin to tell you all how much you inspire me! When my dad died in March of 21 I was lost and just really got into my small backyard. I really wish you could see it. YOU WOULD BE PROUD! This year was 90% proven winners and OMG! My local garden center said I had a postcard backyard! Thank you thank you!! My husband says I get my Laura on when I'm walking around the backyard talking about all my flowers!! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! Never stop posting please!!
I planted several spring bulbs a few years ago. The squirrels dug them up and ate them! Think I will be planting more bulbs this year.
The Keukenhof Gardens in Amsterdam are amazing. We were stations in Germany many years ago and took a trip to the gardens. I had never seen so many tulips in one place. A must see if you ever get the chance to go.
I haven't gardened in almost 8 years due to an injury, and through that time, my garden lay abandoned and overgrown. I started watching your videos this year and my husband and I have been rebuilding the beautiful garden we'd lost to neglect. I'm so glad we found your channel.
They are spamming everyone
@@NinjaTenK agreed. glad I'm not the only one who noticed. Probably phishing for personal details.
@@Wiscowomen08 I report a few you should do the same
@@NinjaTenK agree, and have done the same!
I’m so thankful I found this channel this year. I lost my passion for gardening after my husband was diagnosed with cancer, 2 years in a row, I’m so blessed that we have great Drs who saved his life. I had to let my gardens go to take care of him and everything else besides treatment. I found Garden Answers late spring and it has fired me up to start planting and taking care of my plants again, they’ve suffered badly.
Laura, Thank you!!!
@kimmy0868 ~ I am so sorry to hear about your husbands' cancer diagnosis. I am very happy to hear he is in remission.
I pray 🙏 that he continues to stay healthy and cancer-free. Cancer is such a horrible disease for anyone to go through.
Gardening is so therapeutic to me. Yes, it is hard work but there is a peace about it. Your labor always seems to pay off. Yet the best part for me is, I take this time for me! I call it my "God and me time"! I enjoy the planting and watching the maturity of the plants, enjoying every gorgeous live bloom! Most of all, I spend this time working in my garden talking to God! Prayer is a wonderful thing, but my personal relationship with God Almighty has grown tremendously through my alone time in my garden just talking with him.It's wonderful to hear you have gained back your passion for gardening. I will pray for your husbands healing and for the strength you need in your life to take care of him, physically and mentally.
May God bless you both.
So exciting! I think I’m going to order some bulbs for every Kindergarten student at my school. I’ve been wanting to have students grow something in our school garden and call it “Growing A Sweet Kinder-Garden” by our Kindergartners 😍
That is so sweet of you!
What a wonderful idea! Wish my granddaughter could be in your class. She lives in Idaho!!!!!
I did this way back when for my kindergarten class. Parents donated and it was a huge success. Super to see every year until renovations.
What a nice idea!
How fun for the kids and your school community. I hope you share the pictures with the GA community!!
I'm in the process right now of revitalizing my long garden bed along our backyard driveway parking pad... weeding and pulling out plants that just aren't performing well, cutting back dead wood on a neglected shrub rose (I haven't been able to do this in the last 8 years, because of fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome). But last summer I started container gardening with vegetables on our deck, (I still plant flowers in containers too), and the activity keeps me moving and helps keep me flexible. If course there are bad days (flare ups) where I can't get the things done in my gardening that I want to. But this year I've seen some improvement physically, and I'm so glad I started on the big long flower bed. I added some strawberry plants in this border/bed, and have tucked some edibles (cherry tomatoes, pepper plants and just recently a zucchini and a yellow squash). I've loosened the soil (not with a tiller, but a tool that has times and you twist it and it loosens the soil, and is great for pulling up new areas that were overgrown with crabgrass and weeds). I've also been adding amendments like mushroom compost and coffee grounds, blood meal, and topsoil to replenish depleted soil. I'm not done yet, it's been a summer long process, of getting out there and some days being able to get a lot done, and other days very little accomplished. But I divided some Mt. Hood daffodils and moved the extra bulbs near the strawberries. I added two blue balloon flowers next to a yellow daylily. And I've accidentally dug up some hyacinth bulbs, and replanted them too. I now look at this flower bed and imagine what I can plant to fill in the gaps where I've cleared. I do have some tulip bulbs in there, but not enough. My Pink Impression tulips we're planted many years ago, and there's a few other tulips that have been choked out by weeds, etc. With the soil amendments I've made, I'm excited about planting some Spring bulbs to fill in the empty gaps, and to have that beautiful view from my kitchen door when I look out at this flower bed! Love Colorblends bulbs, have gazed at their selections online for years! (Got my sister hooked on Colorblends bulbs too, she loves loves their selections). So count me in for this chance to win 100 bulbs from Colorblends bulbs!! Thanks for sharing this offer from them. They're the BEST!
For some reason, I had to wait until I reached the age of 78 before I became a passionate lover of gardening/landscaping. Your program has been a catalyst for that and I thank you. In spite of my degree in Agriculture, I never seemed to find the time to practice what I was taught in horticulture classes. Now that I have the time I am regaining my enthusiasm and soaking up the latest information. You have become my trusted source and seeing you surrounded with so much beauty and family love is a thing to treasure. Thank you 😃so much for being you!
Having lived all my life in Hawaii, this was the first year I have ever experienced a "Spring" season, any season for that matter. (We had a beautiful year-round tropical climate, no seasons) I just moved to Washington a year ago and as I drove around and watched flowers blooming and leaves turning color all over the place. it was amazing and confusing to me at the same time. I searched the internet and you-tube to learn as much as I could. I was always a step behind. But thankfully, once I found Garden Answer, my entire world shifted. Thanks to your wisdom and sharing, Laura, I have the beginnings of a plan in motion for the upcoming year. Got a few bulbs ordered to be sure I don't totally miss my window, YAY! I've managed to watch approximately 4 past seasons, starting from your first video. I'd probably be further, but every time I watch your daily vlog release (morning coffee ritual) or a past video I have to run out to a garden center, uproot some of the previous owners landscape and/or plant something!!! Thank you for giving me the courage to tear out a lot of the old (probably original owners 60 year old landscape) and make it my own. First time in 50 years I feel like I've done something solely for me. ***mom of 4 fantastic now adult kids and wife of an engineer (aka.... "landscape and gardening? but why?" buildings and tools are all that makes sense.) Mahalo nui Loa Laura and Aaron for your ongoing education and inspiration. I need it.
What a wonderful story! How fun to be able to make the landscape your own! We recently moved onto a new construction property and are doing all the landscaping design and work ourselves. It is a lot of fun. (also the wife of an engineer here haha)
There’s nothing like when those bulbs first start to open in the spring! It’s like a burst of hope!
I'm a teacher the last few years have been extremely challenging seeing that burst of color in the spring makes me feel so hopeful. I alway share them with my students and it always brightens up my classroom! Thank you so much for all your videos!
Wow! So many great comments. What a wonderful group of followers this is. Clearly Laura, Aaron and those darling kiddo’s (and the cats!) have touched the hearts of us all and in more ways than gardening. We are so blessed to have them sharing their lives with us. May your days continue to be filled with peace, love, joy, and compassion. ❤
I’ve become a Garden Answer groupie! Now in my 70’s I have time to garden and it’s keeping me from just sitting and losing muscle! I just hope when I’m gone those who come to this property will appreciate and keep the garden going! I start my mornings with you, Laura, either on the patio on my phone or inside with breakfast on the TV! Either way & any season, I keep my garden fix fed with GA! Keep up the great work you do!!!
@cmiller974 ~ Congratulations on gardening in your 70's!!! You have the absolute best mindset; up and at 'em, to keep muscles active and healthy!
Welcome Grandma! (I’m a Grandma Groupie, too!)
My son was diagnosed with Autism about two years ago and I have felt so overwhelmed with all the information and appointments need for my little guy. I found your channel at random and became hooked. You inspired me to start gardening and it helped me find some calm in the storm that has become my life these days. My son loves to help me in the garden and gets so excited when he sees all the fruits and vegetables we get to pick. I look forward to your channel every morning and I feel blessed to have found and developed this passion at a time in my life when I needed it most. Thank you for all the inspiration and joy you have brought to my life.
Your comment speaks to me. I, too, am a special needs mom. Gardening was my passion before I had my son, but I lost it after he was born and got caught up in the endless doctors' appts and exhaustion it all brought. I found Laura one day by chance and have been hooked ever since. She has helped me to reignite my passion and get the much needed therapy that working in the garden brings me. I really don't think she knows how she has touched our lives in so many different ways, bringing each of us that little something we need at this very moment. I'm glad you found her and started to feed your soul. I'm glad I found her too. Cheers to you, Mama!
Hey ladies! I am also a special needs mom who is hooked on Garden Answer. I come from a long line of gardeners but struggled to find my own green thumb. In fact, I was a serial killer when it came to plants for a long time. I almost gave up but a friend of mine gave me a houseplant for Christmas years ago that I named Matilda because it meant mighty in battle (or something like that). I figured she needed a strong moniker if she was going to make it in my house. My husband nicknamed her Ma-killed-da. Ha! But somehow Matilda survived. I found Garden Answer and began my planting journey. Usually, I try to get up early and tend to the garden before my son is awake. It is quiet time for me and a relaxing way to start my day. Jacob will help me sometimes but only when/if the weather is perfect. Only if we all had that luxury.
Because of you, Laura, I work in a garden center! It’s such a therapeutic job for me. One in which I find a great deal of joy helping others find the perfect plant. I can only do that because of all I’ve learned from you over the last three years about various flowers and other plants. I love being outside with plants and all their beauty. My father was an avid gardener too, and all four of us kids have beautiful edible gardens because of him. We didn’t enjoy gardening as kids, but we all love it as adults. Thank you for teaching me so much about gardening! I’ve overcome several struggles I’ve had for year’s in my garden because of what I’ve learned from you. ♥️
I’ve gotten many compliments from neighbors on how I’ve improved our landscaping and I owe it to your channel. Adding patches of tulips would just be icing on the cake!
I have found constant inspiration as well as comfort from this channel. Laura, you and Aaron (as well as your littles and the kitties), are gems in a world that can get a little messy and a little loud. I know when I tune in with my morning coffee I will be met with a can-do attitude, brilliant ideas, beautiful plants, and gorgeous scenery. Thank you for the wealth of information and knowledge that you so willingly share with all of us. I think we're all better gardeners (probably better people, too!) due to your influence. Love to all of you!
What an eloquent comment! So true!!
I was not much of a gardener until I gloriously came about you, Laura! I became my 93 year old Dads caregiver and inherited his yard that needed much help. Every morning at 6a I tune into GA to start my day with hope and excitement! His garden is growing again thanks to you Laura! You're the best!
I love the look of the bulbs clumped together. The “natural” look is so pretty.
I’m going to miss having a paper catalog to flip through.
I am in Zone 5b. I never knew my gardening zone nor had I ever cared. I have been watching Laura and her family for only about 8 months now. Wow! Laura and her family have sparked a fire in me that I never knew existed. In April of this year I had a greenhouse built and I am proud of it and I have been spreading the green thumb “bug” everywhere I go. Thank you Laura for the knowledge, inspiration, encouragement, and joy that you bring to me and many others🌸💐🌺🌷🌼🌻🌹. Love, 5b
Laura, you have changed my life.... I have had very rough year fighting depression, and if it wasn't for you and this channel, I'm not sure I would have been able to see all the beauty in the world around me. So thank you!!!
Last year, we filled the front yard with Colorblend bulbs, and it was AMAZING!! SO many people stopped by to enjoy, we are adding even more this year.
Almost 50 years ago, I scrimped on groceries to buy a package of three red tulip bulbs. They have multiplied and divided. I love them. They are the highlight of Spring in my yard. Two years ago after watching Laura’s video, I bought another package of ten. Today, I watched this video of all the varieties of bulbs. I had no idea. I am hooked. I want all the beautiful colors, textures and varieties. Thank you, Laura. You inspired me. #ColorBlooms #springcolorsgalore #GardenAnswer
Thank you for all the possibilities you bring! One of my favorite posters I have seen says, "Off to the garden I go...to lose my mind, and find my soul." There are so many health benefits from gardening both physically and mentally. I thank you for sharing your passion for gardening and the way you work through issues with the rest of the Garden answer world. We all truly benefit from you sharing your family's journey.
Growing up, my mom was an avid gardener. She transformed the 5 acres we lived on with beautiful beds, and she’d be outside working on them long past dark every day. I was never into it. She helped me develop a perennial bed at my home when I became an adult, and now I’m always telling her about “Laura’s videos” and what I learn. Thank you for converting me!
What a great hobby to now share with your mom 💚💚💚
Thanks, Aaron and Laura, for the encouragement to pull out our knee pads and get dirt under our fingernails! My Dutch heritage has always given me a soft spot in my heart for these beautiful spring flowers! Thanks, Color Blend, for the special opportunity to brighten up our gardens! :)
My father passed away last month, he has been sick the past several years. This year I moved in with my parents to help my mom with my dad before he passed away. Through this season I have brought back my parents flower gardens that haven’t been touch in the last few years. What a mess that they were but with your videos and a few other TH-camrs I have learn a lot about gardening and my parents gardens are becoming beautiful once again. Thank you for all that you do.
Laura, you excite others , and you are so engaging when you talk about plants/flowers. I love it when you get so exited and filled with the anticipation of a new season, with new options and plans. Its almost comparable to a little girl in a candy store, and you can’t decide which candy to pick, because they will all look and taste so good! You are an absolute pleasure to watch and such a welcome addition to my day, ALWAYS! 😊☘️🌾🌼🌸
I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning. Because of you guys, when I bought my house, I bought it because of the untouched garden potential on my half acre. The house is great, but the potential this land had is what sold me. It’s been a crazy few years developing this blank slate, but I love every minute of it. You never fail to inspire me to keep working on it. That being said, a lot my size totally swallows stuff up so 100 bulbs would be really helpful! 😃
In my late sixties, as my daughter was finishing her college years I discovered Garden Answer. It was right around the time Laura and Aaron moved to this new property. After years as a single parent I knew my daughter (who was married, husband was in the military living away from her the entire 4 years of college but would visit) would be on her way to join him and I needed to renew my own personal goals. How more perfect could it have been to renew my love of gardening through Garden Answer! I garden on a small scale and it has been and continues to be the focus of my life. I am less mobile these days but I have the tools and knowledge I need through my viewing of Garden Answer. I’m so grateful as I imagine it would be somewhat difficult to simply be on my own these days. I have tea and coffee with Laura and Aaron. I look forward to relaxing and instructive viewings and the fun of Laura sharing her family members-ESPECIALLY her Mother, whom I adore. Thank You Guys for everything!!
Welcome back - the Earth is hiring everyone to do whatever they can, and that's all she expects in your yard.

I love that I forget about all the work it took to plant the bulbs when they come up in the Spring. I'm inspired to try some new varieties!
Laura and Aaron, thank you for all the time and inspiration you put into all your videos. Every morning I can't wait to grab a cup of coffee, sit out on the patio and watch your videos. And your kids are adorable! I retired this year from having a preschool and daycare in my home for 33 years, so the yard is getting a big transformation. My husband says thank you Garden Answer every time he has to build me something or haul dirt. 😂 The Greenhouse is going up this week. But I did notice my husband is enjoying all the pretty plants and produce from the garden. I have not planted too many bulbs over the years, so I'm looking forward to having some early spring color. Your place is absolutely stunning and it makes me excited to keep planting. I hope to drop into your parents Garden Center one day. God Bless!
I love your videos! I live in northern Utah and I have a west facing front garden East racing back garden this last year we lost all of our grass in the backyard. But all of our plants and flowers look wonderful. We've decided to do several large garden areas with lots of different drought loving plants, trees, and put in turf and Rock. I desperately need bulbs for spring color.
I have a lot of late blooming perennial.
Oh my! 🥰 hearing you say “Keukenhof” is absolutely adorable! I am from the Netherlands. Just a drive of 2 hours and I can be there. Can you even believe I have never been there?! Thanks for inspiring me to go now. Where I think this is a normal thing and never made the afford to go, I know think I should make the afford! You and Arron are amazing and because of your videos I got so much inspiration for my own garden plans. We are slowly working our way trough them
When I was a child and the daffodils came up in the spring I knew spring had arrived. It was such of beautiful way to start the flower season.
I have always loved the bright cheerful color daffodils bring in the spring too! 😊💚
Hi Laura! I discovered your channel about 1.5-2 years ago and have since fallen in love with gardening. As a nurse of 15 years, I often need a space to decompress and a place I can escape to in order to take care of myself. The garden has become that space and has been a sort of therapy for me. About 10 months ago I also lost my best friend of 34 years after the birth of her 3rd baby girl due to an infection in her brain. I’ve needed my garden therapy more than ever as a space to heal and reflect. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and love of all things gardening. It’s because of you I have learned to slow down and appreciate all the beautiful things in our harsh world.
As a kid, I always had a passion for plants and it bloomed, even more, when I started watching your channel for over 4 years when I was 16. I live in NYC but my parents recently brought a home in Pennsylvania, allowing me to start an actual garden. Thank you so much for the inspiration and joy that you spread through your videos. They have got me through so much and are always the highlight of my day. God bless you and your family
Thanks so very much for sharing 🎀
Some of my best childhood memories are running through the fields full of bluebells and daffodils. We used to go and visit the cave where the fairies lived and there was, and still is, daffodils all over making it look magical. I live in Florida now and I'm learning which bulbs can be planted in the South. Thank you for all the beautiful inspiration!
When I retired a few years ago, I had no idea how I would spend my time. Then I discovered YOU!!
I'm in Utah, high desert like you, so I know that if you plant it, I can too!
I even planned a trip to see my son in the Boise area so I could make a trip over to Andrew's Seed. Loved talking with your mom! Bought a couple of plants, & can't wait till they grow up! Thank you! Every morning starts with Garden Answer!
My son is getting married in my back yard this September, so I dug new flowerbeds and watched Gardenanswer religiously and learned so much. I am now obsessed with flowers! I would love some Fall bulbs! 🙏
This will be the first time in 30 years that I’ve planted tulips and I’m so excited! Thanks for all you do Laura!
My five year old and I love to garden together. She gets so excited when the daffodils and tulips start to bloom in the spring. She’d love to get some new bulbs to plant!
Maybe set some space aside for her to make her own garden and pick flowers. So much fun
Last fall was my first venture into planting bulbs for spring! Because of my particular space, I tried containers for my bulbs and was SO excited to plant about 80 bulbs in quite a few different pots. Sadly, they all rotted, BUT I'm going to try again because YOU inspire me! Thank you for all of your hard work; I hope you know how many of us really appreciate it!
Try to put the pots so they don’t get any wet in the pots during winter but beeing outside to get the cold. I acctually put some plastic over a couple of pots I couldn’t move. Try no water untill you see some growth in spring and then just little water from time to time untill they are big plants.
Thanks for keeping us challenged and motivated! Because of you and Aaron and your mom (Susan) and let's not forget your dad, our garden is one of the highlights of our neighborhood.
Love seeing tulips and daffodils pop their heads out after a tough, cold winter. They’re breathtaking ❤️💐
Me too! They are so bright and cheerful after a long winter!
I'm so happy to find this channel. I've ordered 150 bulbs to put around my tree when you first placed your order for your bulbs and was going through what you wanted. I'm so excited to plant them when they arrive.
Thank you so much for all of the inspiration and knowledge. We lost our home 2 years ago in the Alameda fire in Souther Oregon and your videos helped in so many ways for us to plan and execute our new garden spaces. This spring we were finally able to start working out in our yard. My husband and I gather so much from your videos and post that you share. We finally got our power planted this year. Wow such a game changer. Thank you again for all that you do for a passionate community of beginner, novice and expert gardeners.
Imagine when you win the giveaway and the bulbs come up in the spring every year and it reminds you of Laura!!!
Super lucky! 🙌🏾
@@thatbemefool It was a fake garden answer
Hi Laura I am just another one of your great admirers who thought I'd take a moment to let you know how you and your family touch so many. I have watched you for several years now but within this past year was diagnosed with breast cancer but I am doing well partially because of you. Obviously I love gardening but watching you and your spirit and determination in your garden has inspired me to keep going so that I can get back into my garden and I have. I am coming out the other side of a scary tunnel but you and your family have been a wonderful distraction and inspiration that have made me smile along the way. I know that you do get alot of messages like this but in case you didn't know your calling and gift is far more than just gardening or working in the dirt; you are a special kind of flower that grows in people's hearts 💕 Thank God for you and yours and thank you Laura 😊 💖
I love how you don’t just show all the good that happens, you show mishaps also. You make me want to try new kinds of plants. Absolutely love how your cats always make an appearance.
I absolutely love hanging out in my screened in garage with my five cats every morning watching you videos. I feel off when I don’t get that opportunity every morning. Thanks for doing what you do. P.S. you and your husband remind me of me and mine I love seeing that creative and technical make wonderful couples.
This giveaway comes at the perfect time! We are closing on our first home tomorrow, August 9 and I have been planning my fall planting, especially my bulb order! I have learned so much from this channel over the years. Everything from your knowledge of plants to your work ethic and the love you have for what you do and especially that you get to share it with the ones you love is so inspiring. Thank you for everything that you do.
Congratulations!! 😊
Love the selection of tulips you picked. I seem to have the same color palette as you. Enjoy watching your videos so much.
@Linda Lou ~ Congratulations on closing your first home🏡, tomorrow!
That is one of the most exciting times of our lives.👏👏 I wish you and your family many, many happy years, filled with fun and great memories in your new home!!!!
🤞🤞🤞🤞Crossing my fingers, for you, that you win a bulb giveaway!
There is nothing quite like spring bulbs flowering after a cold winter. So easy to plant with such big rewards.
I look forward to your show every morning with my 1st cup of coffee, a great start for the day! Last spring we had a beautiful display of bulbs, but after they bloomed a gopher took out most of them. The previous fall we had dug out all the soil in the flower bed and lined it with hardware cloth and secured it with landscape staples, in hopes of preventing more gopher activity. Then we added the dirt back in and the plants. We managed to catch one gopher and I’ve had no more activity since, so I’m hoping to start over again this coming fall with more bulbs. Crossing my fingers and toes that this works!
Hi Laura! I started following you before Covid hit, so I have seen how transformative your beautiful home, garden, and family has been over the years! I purchased my first order from Colorblends last year and needless to say, I'm hooked and have already been looking at reordering from them. Thank you so much for sharing your love for gardening, family, and all things unique with us! ❤️
Laura, I love how you group your tulips together. I admit I never quite knew what to do so I would plant tulips and little rows in planters and it looked kind of odd. I’m definitely loving the more scattered clumpings that you do in an area. Since I’ve been watching you, I’ve switched over to color blends as well. In the past, I bought bulbs at the local discount store, and quite frankly, many of them never even came up the following year. Those have all pretty much gone away by now, so now I’m reaping the benefits of the beautiful bulbs I’ve been planting in the last couple of years. I still have a long way to go, but I think you would like what I’m doing. I get a lot of compliments - the whole neighborhood gets to enjoy my front landscaping. ❤️🌷❤️🌷❤️
Tulips are such a sign of cheer, I love seeing them in barrels and up near the houses in neighborhoods. These are so pretty, the colors are so saturated and plants look strong.
I work as a paraprofessional at a high school middle school, so I have summer time off. Every morning I enjoy a cup of tea and watch your videos. I've realized that it's not only the videos with all the planting and garden info I enjoy but rather Laura's life outlook, positive energy and love for all living things. I'm so grateful for you Laura. 💓
What a great sweepstake opportunity! I rent, and the sideyard works as my front door. It was unruly with weeds, dying trees, and the other renters project car. After successfully getting the car removed, I started a flower garden next to the side gate and a vegetable garden next to the road side. Even built a 2 leveled wood garden bed following your tutorial. Now its transformed into a more welcoming entrance thanks to your videos.
I always enjoy going to Andrew's, even if I can always afford anything. Your family is so down to earth. I've seen Aaron and Benjamin several times. I have not had the nerve to go up and say, "hi" and tell him how much I enjoy watching the TH-cam channel. I have not yet seen you there but, I'm sure I will at some point. I'm just getting my garden started my whole back hard was bare and all dirt I hope to have a separate space for the garden and and area for the dogs and am starting a Potager Garden next to the deck. Thank you for your channel I have need the help for growing here in SW Idaho. I'm from Western Washington originally and it's completely different.
Every year I save up and buy as many alliums as possible. They are just so interesting and whimsical to me. I can never talk myself into adding to the spring show. I love seeing all the spring bulbs Laura plants each season. One of these years Laura is going to talk me into branching out!
Seeing bulbs showing bursts of color in the gardens around your property is a wonderful spring alarm clock. It’s time! 😉Time to get outside and see what’s popping up in the NC mountains. Your mentioning ‘color the grass’ is now my fall planting plan. My beds are filled with many of the shrubs that flower seasonally or have leaf color variations I’ve researched from your sessions. Thanks Laura and Aron for the good humor, tips and delightful videos. You even make hot sweaty dirty tasks rewarding when the big picture shows what can happen with ‘a bit’ of hand digging in my own yard.
My mom (in her 60’s) is just finallyyyyy putting in a new front garden bed. She’s lived in her house for 5 years, and she’s done wonderful things to make her back gardens but has dragged her heels on removing the giant privets and split arbs in her front. This year she pulled the trigger and ripped them oooouuuutttttt!!!! I would love to pack that out with bulbs for a spring surprise.
Laura, you're going to love the fritillarias. I've had them for years and they naturalized freely by scattering seed around. They pop up all over the place and have such a charming, magical look. One of my favorite bulbs!
Since I’ve been a child, I’ve dreamed of a home with beautiful landscaping. Well maintained grass and beautiful flower beds that fit perfectly around the grounds. I have learned so much from your channel and thank God that I found you on TH-cam. From your layouts to your planters, your ideas have never cease to educate! We live on a lake and boaters come by to see each year what is growing! I can wait to plant some bulbs to amaze! Really wish you lived closer for ideas, but your channel is the next best thing! God Bless!
I don't miss a day since I retired that I don't get up and watch your show.
I love gardening, love all you do with your family.
Not only do you share your gardening knowledge and beautiful gardens.
You show the love of your family that I wish I had my family is just too busy.
Thanks for including your family memories your making !
Love you and your family ❤️!
I look forward everyday to Garden Answers ❤️ As I grab my cup of coffee in morning, I tell my sweet pug Gabby, “Let’s see what Laura & Aaron are up to today”. I’m a lifelong gardener and still glean so much from you; one freeing encouragement I have taken from you is, if it’s not meeting your expectations & bringing you joy, then get rid of it! Its been wonderful removing those particular plants & shrubs and reclaiming that valuable real estate for fresh plantings. Thank you for sharing your sweet family with us. Prayers that your mom has a full & speedy recovery 🙏 May the Lord continue to bless you.
Oh, and looking forward to the interview with your mom & hoping you’ll do one with your dad. Loving the bulb selections on this episode too ❤️🌹👩🌾
I’ve never been a big fan of bulbs in my garden. Always love seeing them other places but never really thought I could have them myself. Well your making me think I can! This coming year I’m hoping to have a few types added to my garden beds! You have inspired me to start 3 new beds in my plain & boring backyard. It’s finally starting to look like a happy place!
I am in my early 60s. Because of you, I was able to adventure into gardening. I was always afraid to kill a plant, or planting something in one spot and later regret it. Now, I take risks and I am enjoying gardening. Thank for inspiring us!
I love your channel, of course for all your beautiful plants and knowledge, but just as important to me is when you share your beautiful children and family with us. I found your channel during the pandemic and appreciated the wholesomeness and beauty your channel offered to escape from the horror going on in the world. Thank you, Laura and Aaron.
As a landscaper it is so wonderful to see how appreciate you are for everything you guys do! It’s incredible to watch you inspire beautiful gardens. Love it!
This makes me excited to plant bulbs this fall. 😍 I have learned so much from you Laura. And yes that hyacinth stings and itch even planting those bulbs you'd feel it. I accidentally dug out one and those sting/itchy sap went through my gloves. It's that strong you guys. Love all of your bulb choices. I wish I will have the time to plant bulbs this year. It looks so glorious. 😍
Your videos have been such a huge help for me. I recently purchased a home and the yard was a mess. With your help I am bringing new life and beauty back to the landscape. Needless to say, I am happy with the results and so are my neighbors, thanks to you.😊
Spring bulbs are my absolute favorite thing to shop for when it comes to gardening! There’s something so magical about waiting for those first pops of color to emerge after a long winter!🥰
I love planting bulbs with my daughter. She gets so excited in the spring when they finally start poping up.
I've been watching you from the very beginning. You're so inspiring and I have learned so much from you. Gardening has always been a passion of mine, but what I learn from you lights an extra fire for me. I just built a new house in Utah and am so excited to start from scratch here and implement some of these beautiful bulbs this fall!! Thanks to both of you!
Absolutely love your inspiration and how I have grown as a gardener because of your passion! Thank you Laura and Aaron for going for it!
I love the color early spring bulbs provide in my frigid zone 5 garden!! I was raised in California and did not realize how amazing springtime is after a long dark Illinois winter. Spring truly is a rebirth and it makes your soul sing to see the new green growth and colorful blooms pushing up to greet you 🥰
Hey Laura, I am from Ontario Canada Zone 6b as well! I’m new to gardening (I have no idea what I am doing) but I’m trying! I love watching your videos to learn and to see all the beautiful gardens you have. Thank you for opening up your space for all of us to enjoy every morning! It’s so inspirational and motivating for me and I’m sure so many more! I never thought I’d try taking up gardening as a hobby, but here we are 😂 Maybe not the best year to start due to lack of rain, it’s barely rained at all for months now and it’s been very hot and humid here! I hope you have a great day!
Thank you Laura for the inspiration you provide. My husband and I built our dream home recently and now I have my dream gardens thanks to you. “Running errands” means I’m buying groceries and plants. I couldn’t have managed our massive flower beds if your channel hadn’t taught me so much about plant varieties and given me the courage to keep planting. 💕
@Stephanie V ~ Congratulations on the dream home 🏡 for you and your husband!!! Good luck, in the future years, of expanding and growing your garden beds!!!
This will be my first year ordering bulbs online and from colorblends. Thanks to Laura I have an idea of what I NEED for my garden!!
For the first time in my life I have a yard to plant in. I joke that I'm a recovering perfectionist and gardening has taught me patience and surrender. Thank you for your very pragmatic approach to gardening and reassuring me that I'm not alone in trying new things that don't always work out like I imagined!
Always a pleasure to see your excitement when showing us what you’ve ordered, be it bulbs, seeds or whatever!
I promised my sister I wouldn’t order anymore bulbs because I had so much last year but after seeing your order…we’ll I may have to break my promise 😂
A year ago we moved onto 40 acres and I wanted to have a beautiful garden. I started watching your channel and you’ve inspired me so much! We went from nothing to garden beds all around the house. It’s a lot of work but so rewarding. I have learned so much from watching Garden Answer and every morning after I tend my garden, my treat is to come inside to cool off and watch the happenings going on in your beautiful property.
It's the most wonderful time of the year!! (*Singing it like the Christmas song* ) In all seriousness, I am in the midst of planing my gardens for next year because I am following a dream to start a flower farm because of you! You have taught me so much about gardening and I can't thank you enough! I would never have the confidence to do this without all of the knowledge I've gained from you throughout the years! Thank you Laura and Aaron for being an inspiration for all of us!
Two years ago I planted 100 daffodils on the side of the road at my house. Every spring, people enjoy the view as they walk or ride bikes down to the State Forest at the end of our road. Last fall I planted 200 tulips, in the front yard inside our deer fence. Once more, passersby get to enjoy the view. How fun! Like you, I love the Mentons!
I am so thrilled that we’re finally able to put in spring bulbs for our new home! It’s definitely the color I am lacking.
Ah, yes. Annual reminder to order my bulbs for Fall planting! I got into outdoor gardening a bit later last year but still had an amazing show from my January-planting of tulips in containers (zone 7B)! I look forward to hearing the familiar "Hey guys, how's it going?" every morning. As always, thank you so much for what you guys do
Bless your beautiful souls Laura, Aaron & the entire GA team! I planted my first tree this year thanks to the knowledge & wisdom I have learned from this channel over the years. After dreaming (literally) and much prep, we planted our first Redpointe Maple tree. My local garden center ordered them in after 2 seasons of me requesting. I would not have the confidence w/o all I have learned from GA.
You both bring such positive & inspirational joy to our lives. Excellent info & editing. It takes a tremendous amount of work to be a creator & you both kill it! Can’t wait to order some bulbs! 💜
I have never planted so many bulbs until watching your channel. I wish I had room for all of the bulbs I love. I started ordering from ColorBlends after seeing your bulbs. The first year I ordered from them was the year COVID hit. Those spring flowers saved my sanity! I am a teacher and when we had to teach from home it was just so isolating and a scary time that I looked forward to being able to go outside and look at those beautiful flowers. Thanks so much!
You inspired me to plant 500 bulbs last fall, the most we’ve planted in one season. Was so excited to see them come up this spring. Won’t be planting that many this year, but want to try several new (to us) varieties We grow mostly daffodils as the deer leave them alone, while they love the tulips. I have found if I spray the area with Plantskydd our tulips do better. I take care of the gardens for a local city, so lots of room for many more bulbs!
We live out in the country and our "fence row" is lined with various bulbs, primarily daffodils, and what a spectacular display they make in the spring. Love your channel and what an inspiration you have been. Thank you.
That sounds so pretty! We have a small fence row that I lined with daffodils last year and I am loving it!
Oh my gosh, I can't wait to see your spring display next year. I'm sure it will be beautiful as always! Thank you for always being so positive and uplifting and for all the inspiration over the years. I fell in love with gardening when I volunteered for the horticulture department at the Denver zoo 7 years ago and that love lead me to finding you on TH-cam! I've been watching religiously ever since, and I have learned so much from you. Thank you as always!
I'm in an apartment complex and have been the volunteer gardener for 5 years. I love all your videos they get me motivated to use your ideas in a smaller way. I especially love your container ideas. You get me through winter! I also love Colorblends they have beautiful combos. Thank you for inspiring all of us.
I just ordered my second round of daffodils from Colorblends two days ago! It’s never been something I put the work into but since I’ve started watching your channel I figured I’d give it a shot. My yard looked beautiful in the spring! Thank you for introducing me to a whole new world of bulbs!
I love tulips! Every year the town I grew up in has a tulip festival. It's so fun to go and look at all the different varieties each year! This year I am hoping to add some to our garden.
Holland, Mi had an amazing tulip festival too
The Colorblends bulbs are some of the very best! I planted my first batch of their bulbs last fall and such an impressive show this spring! Cannot wait to add more of these beauties to my garden 🥰
Hi Laura and Aaron! In 2019, we had several tornadoes on Cape Cod, one of which took all our 14 trees….I lost my will to garden…but I found your channel…now we have a vegetable garden with raised beds, a greenhouse with hydroponics, a hedge with arborvitae and little limelight hydrangeas as well as a border with Denim’n lace Russian sage and Annabelle hydrangeas and so much more! Huge thank you to both of you!!!
