Lovely arrangement of roses Laura. The wax flower is called Geraldton Wax. It originates from a town called Geraldton on the west coast of Australia, which is actually the town I grew up in. They grow wild there, as do sunflowers 🌻
Laura you’re a breath of fresh air … I love how down to earth you are … you made me chuckle when you said you needed to water your hands … made me think ..you can’t trust a skinny chef .. and I say you can’t trust a gardener with clean hands lol… love all your videos.. you are one of the first things I look for every morning 🥰🙌
After our Thanksgiving meal, I took the grandkids out to the potting shed to “pot up” individual amaryllis bulbs for them to take home and watch for blooms . I also potted up my summer amaryllis, and we seem to be in the same stage as you are! Looks like January through February, and I can only “blame Laura” for this new family obsession! Thank you for all you do Laura to keep us creative and growing green, even through the 5b winter of southern WI!
The Hartley continues to bring joy to you and all of us who live vicariously through you! Those roses are exquisite and a promise of gardens to come. Thank you for brightening our lives with such beautiful and green growing things. 🥰
Love it all❤ Russell has more scratching posts on the barn. Hubby said, horses are a lot of work & money! Vet bills & shoeing or trimming hooves. His first life with horse person, last life me28yrs🎉
Your love and knowledge of plants and how excited you get is so amazing. You are such a great “teacher” and I am learning so much. My mother who has passed 12 years ago was so knowledgeable and had a “green thumb” like you, created my love for plants. It’s nice to have found your platform and to continue to learn and work and create my garden with help from you. Thank you for always teaching and inspiring me. Blessings to you💖💖
When I go antiquing with my friends, I am always on the lookout for old plates for saucers. I love the crystal looking ones or blue and white, which is my aesthetic. Often, I find them at Habitat, Goodwill or garage sales for pennies. I use them under terra cotta or alone for furniture protection. Something else to look for when you, your mother and Monica have another shopping day!
Also lids from Mayo jars, coffee canisters etc and old Tupperware can be used to keep vintage items clean and protect them from hard water buildup. Just change them out seasonally and give the decorative plates a quick wipe. Keep a supply in an old cookie tin or bag in the potting shed.
Those flowers look like they’re from Trader Joe’s , they seem to always carry English roses , love getting flowers from them . All of the plants you repotted are so pretty . Thank you for always making sure you give us the name of the plants , just in case we need to go buy one or two . The Hartley is the spot to be in it’s gorgeous in there 🌿🪻🪴
So excited about the horses! I kept horses for years and still miss it. It's hard work but worth it. Make sure you can get electricity to water troughs to prevent freezing.
Good morning, Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b Your arrangement is 👍beautiful and well balanced 👌 Happy Gardening Everyone and remember Appreciate more in '24! ❤Peggy❤
I just have to tell you Laura... I have learned so much from you. Your videos have really inspired me to garden more. I have yet to find a channel more educational. Keep up all the good work. Have you ever thought about doing a floral tutorial in your flower shed with all your cut flowers you've grown ?
I love the English essay roses, mauve & pale pink is so understated. My favorite part - other than glimpsing the adorable cats - is going over each plant after re-potting, each name, & also learning Laura's strategy for watering.
Beautiful arrangement. I’m curious if you bought a single bouquet from the store how you would arrange it. With grocery prices so high a $35 splurge is not in the cards for some but $5-$10 is. That would be a fun challenge. Enjoy the day.
Gorgeous bouquet, Laura! Everything you do is superb. I watch every day and never tire of seeing what you and your family create along with Bethany and Paul. Thank you so much❤
GardenAnswers: Morning Sweet Laura, Smantha Grace, beautiful flowers, love you arrangment.Have a wonderful day.Sending my love and God's special blessings to you all Aaron,and B-man, enjoy your walk together.Wanda
Hi Laura I so enjoyed the music you used while making your floral arrangement it was very relaxing! I am encouraged to do some repotting some of my houseplants and possibly starting some ivy topiaries for Valentines gifts! I can imagine any time in the Hartley would be very therapeutic! Blessings 💖
The vast, full window above the sink + counter is so lovely, brilliant. Laura, you're so talented. Your parents were super influences, but, you put your very own stamp on it.
Hearing the piano music in the background, I wondered if Laura has ever composed a piano composition of her own? In this video, Laura has challenged my vertical and horizonal sense of design. When I saw the candle holder upcycled into a vase that she chose for the beautiful David Austin-ish roses, immediately I envisioned a vertical bouquet and Laura went horizonal. Perfection! Then when I saw the new urn/pots I thought of a horizonal, bushy type plant and Laura chose the Myrtle topiaries. I love how Laura expands my gardening world!
I figure late winter blooms on amaryllis are even better than Christmas blooms since the Christmas season already is pretty and decorative, whereas we need a boost of pretty color as the winter wears on.
I am so excited for Garden Answer 2024. Between the dirt lands and the new property (i saw the fences) we are in store for some big changes! Congratulations to you and Aaron on living your dream you deserve nothing but the best
I no longer have the sunroom with moving….thank you for helping me bring up it’s comforting memories. And now 20 yrs later will be downsizing once more will be looking for a new home with an eye to maximum windows if no sunroom is available. 💕
All I asked for for Christmas was a geriatric cat. One that will be chill and want to snuggle, sit in my lap and be pet. Douglas looks like that perfect cat. If you sat down, would he want in your lap for a snuggle? The plants are so beautiful. And look so good when placed in groups the way you do.♡ Btw.... I did not get a cat for Christmas 💔 Have a great weekend and Happy New Year 🎉
6-10 yr old cats settle down, once at 15 yrs they like a cat spot to watch things but be left alone. To me they still meow if notice some sounds off, still interact but are really into connecting to the clouds above when napping. Petting seems to jar them from protecting -sensing their old age. Try feeding alnutrin cat supplement, slow cook meats, adding tbl sardines for coat and skin, and doing a soapnut pet wipe and wipe off with hot water washcloth. Older cats need help bathing. Also like Tractor Supply Co equine bedding to save on clay cat litter. To me it neautralizes nitrogen best and I usually wet down pine pellets with water to create a softer litter. Not lap cat age 17+ years but can feel great with dense clean fur, and good muscle tone. ❤ They can also love watching an amazon tablet with wild bird videos in a cat cave, patio end table with toddler size bedding over and under. PS Rehmannia 8 for pets on Amazon helps blood metabolism prevent death when older, as snow fronts or heat waves can change atmospheric pressure. Blood goes to organs but the medicine helps create surface heat and keeps things going. For dogs think 11 yrs good to have on hand. For cats maybe 14 years. Fed to 17 yr old cat each day but younger maybe only at weather changes. Also petalive uti free good to get on ebay as a medicine on shelf. Worth the extra cost.
Hi Laura, Hi Aaron, Here is an idea for the winter months: I would love a 'Day in a life of Garden answer' - video to see you process: From recording over file transfer to editing to posting. I would love to get a BTS :)
I have to water my hands; I mean wash them! You are so in tune with your plants~and you are sweetly funny. You could definitely hang with me anytime. Once again you nailed the rose design. It looks magical!! Thank you for the video!!
Hey Laura... Have you heard of Jay Schwanke? He is a 4th generation flower shop owner based out of Michigan. He said the petals on the outside of the flower are 1/2 leaf and 1/2 flower. When you pull them off like you did, he said the expectancy of your flower bloom goes down and won't last as long.These flower petals are what helps to feed your flowers. I do understand why you took them off but if you can keep them on it would help your flowers to last longer. He also said if you do pull them off to spray your flowers with Chrysal Professional Glory. It provides a shield to help with evaporation coming out of your flowers to help them last longer. He also said to always cut your flowers on an angel so that when in water they can drink. He says if you cut off straight across that the flowers can't drink. I just thought since you have so many flowers you might like to know about him. He's on TH-cam.
Hey Laura! I've watched your videos for years and always love when I can offer up a plant name that you may not be familiar with 😊 That Muehlenbeckia you have is commonly known as the "tapeworm plant" because of its flat stems. It looks like the Latin name was recently changed to be included in the Muehlenbeckia genus which was news to me too! Such a strange plant but super fun to grow. It is a tropical so high humidity and moisture is welcome. Thanks for bringing so much beauty to the world with your passion for plants! ❤
Oh wow just so beautiful are the roses you. got. And the arrangement you did with them just so inspiring and beautiful. Just so good to see you planting up pots with not much todo yet in our gardens. Just looking so much to be in my garden more when springs here.
Welcome back after Christmas, I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday, your videos were definitely missed but I hope you had a wonderful time with the family
I just LOVE your greenhouse, it's so cozy and BEAUTIFUL.....bright and cheery with everything white and high ceilings, I could be happy living in there !!! 🤩 The arrangement was gorgeous, love the firecracker feel for New Years.
Thank you for sharing. That arrangement is beautiful, and those plants are so awesome. All those plants remind me of my sister. She passed 2 years ago, but everytime I see those types of plants, it really brings me joy. Thank you for sharing tips with plants, planting, and transplanting.
I watched a video this week about soaking the roots of amaryllis in water for 12-24 hours to make them bloom quicker with bigger blooms. I hope I remember next season just to see. Rose arrangement is beautiful.
I love the urns for the myrtles. I’m always looking for urns but I haven’t but looking in the right places. I can’t do that wire vine because of it’s common name. Gives me the Willy’s. Lol I love the white wizard and a plant with Carmel in the name, which I’m waiting to see again.
It's a treat watching you shop for plants and yet another treat watching you repot them, like you did today. Ah, those English roses and wax flowers just bring a smile to my face and just love how Aaron always chooses the perfect background music to accompany your creations. Please let Douglas know that he must share camera time with Cheddar and Russell. One more thing, I've never been a fan of bulbs because of the wait period before they bloom but you may have made a convert of me after seeing your Amaryllis collection in their adorned pots; will enjoy seeing them bloom. Thanks again for bringing joy to everyone with your passion for gardening.
Lovely arrangement of roses! I have never seen those in the grocery store. How fun that you were able to get them. The plants all look so good. Happy New Year Laura and Aaron.🎉
Drooling over those roses! I did some potting up this morning too. An Amaryllis I got for Christmas and some angel wing begonia cuttings I took from one plant outside (which is still thriving in this crazy warm weather we are having on Vancouver Island.) The cuttings were actually blooming!
I try using white pots and love the look of them all together on my plant stand. I have 3 amaryllis, oldest is 3 years old. It bloomed first but only lasted a few days so I think it’s about used all its bulb strength. The one year old came next and was gorgeous. The 3rd is the newest , had two bulb stalks and each had 5 blossoms on it, just now starting to fade. So fun to watch and so lovely to add to the holiday cheer. Happy New Year Laura, can’t wait to see what 2024 brings to your beautiful home☃️☃️☃️💕
Beautiful arrangement! I see New fench up & old fench down! Can't wait for you and Aaron to share your new property update! I see a pool, a horse or 2 and a new barn for storage and a new production greenhouse!! 😅
Laura, have you thought of using plates as a saucer for pots? I found some at a thrift store that were so pretty and curved just right. I feel good about saving them from a landfill and they add a nice style to my pots. I still use saucer but I buy glazed plates that cost a dollar. Thank you for all of your inspiration!
I started using those kind of pots also. Lowes carries them. Also my Christmas cactus are beautiful in this pots.i learned how to root Christmas cactus and even have single leaves in water blooming
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone show us how to repot a plant like you just did by putting the original pot in the new pot first and working around it that was really neat. Thank you.
Beautiful….ive a huge amount of eucalyptus as it’s so lovely to be able to just cut your own out the garden….it’s nice having different varieties ,,,the small leaved one is so so pretty
Having watched this video, I can understand how enjoyable it must be to putter in the Hartley on a cold day. I would die of heat stroke in a greenhouse here south Texas, haha :) I have seen you pot all the plants in there and the statue head is probably my favorite but many are such cute plants. The flower arrangement is lovely. Thank you for taking time to make a video during your Christmas vacation. Happy New Year to you and yours.
I love your creativity and really like that you do not use gardening gloves....I really like to touch the dirt and smell it and feel the plants. What a connection! Happy New Year!
I have the exact same iron urns from 20 years ago , San Diego , I painted them dark green and brushed on iron brown paint to seal them from oxidation erosion . I have an eternal spray of chives in them Year round .
Thank you for explaining about the "wire vine" plant. I was able to look it up and found out all sorts of interesting facts about it. You will need to keep an eye on it so it doesn't overtake an area, as apparently it can grow and vine up to 9 feet! It also loses its leaves and can get pretty little flowers on it. It has many names including ribbon plant, ribbon bush, tapeworm plant, and centipede plant. The best info I found was from the "Laidback Gardener", The February 2022 Houseplant of the month.
My armaryllis isn’t do “it’s either. It looks healthy, the soil is good. Not over watering and getting as much sun as is available in there dreary days. It’s just sitting there. After seeing your group, I feel better. We may have a flower eventually. Loved the roses you and Samantha purchased. Lovely in the dull days.
My daughter gave me 2 wax dipped amaryllis this year. I put them in a dough bowl with artificial greenery, and put them under my grow lights. They aren’t very tall but they were glorious for Christmas.
ahhhh... love putting things in fresh pots .. those roses are stunning!!! and yes, in the mood to clean up, clean out, purge, get organized!! here's to a fun and productive 2024! 🥰❤thanks for the video! 🥰❤
Lovely arrangement of roses Laura. The wax flower is called Geraldton Wax. It originates from a town called Geraldton on the west coast of Australia, which is actually the town I grew up in. They grow wild there, as do sunflowers 🌻
As an Australian it was lovely to see 2 of our native plants in the floral arrangement. The Wax flowers and the eucalyptus leaves.
Great information! We loved our time in Australia and would love to come back! 🦘
Thank you for sharing that! I love your country and would love to visit someday! 🇦🇺
So stunning! Love watching you arrange plants and flowers!!
@suefromoz1913 I would have stayed there, Geraldton, forever! Australia (minus the big, scary insects et al) is what I envision heaven to be.
Laura you’re a breath of fresh air … I love how down to earth you are … you made me chuckle when you said you needed to water your hands … made me think ..you can’t trust a skinny chef .. and I say you can’t trust a gardener with clean hands lol… love all your videos.. you are one of the first things I look for every morning 🥰🙌

Hubby said, horses are a lot of work & money! Vet bills & shoeing or trimming hooves.
His first life with horse person, last life me28yrs🎉
Transplanting houseplants always feels like a worthy accomplishment. I always enjoy when you spend time in the Hartley, thanks for taking us along. 🪴
"Our" Hartley. Our viewing time paid for that hartley lol its ours too she just keeps it safe and pretty for us 😂
Your love and knowledge of plants and how excited you get is so amazing. You are such a great “teacher” and I am learning so much. My mother who has passed 12 years ago was so knowledgeable and had a “green thumb” like you, created my love for plants. It’s nice to have found your platform and to continue to learn and work and create my garden with help from you. Thank you for always teaching and inspiring me. Blessings to you💖💖
I love, love love this!!!!!? What a beautiful arrangement!!!!!!!
Eternal rest, grant unto her mom, O' Lord . . .
I lost my mom in 2013. She also had a green thumb. Gardening has been my comfort when I miss her.
I think if you were to put the floral arrangement in one of the cast iron pots, it would be beautiful
. It reminds me of a floral painting
When I go antiquing with my friends, I am always on the lookout for old plates for saucers. I love the crystal looking ones or blue and white, which is my aesthetic. Often, I find them at Habitat, Goodwill or garage sales for pennies. I use them under terra cotta or alone for furniture protection. Something else to look for when you, your mother and Monica have another shopping day!
Also lids from Mayo jars, coffee canisters etc and old Tupperware can be used to keep vintage items clean and protect them from hard water buildup. Just change them out seasonally and give the decorative plates a quick wipe. Keep a supply in an old cookie tin or bag in the potting shed.
I use old plates too
They look so sweet under a potted plant
They don't scratch surfaces and are waterproof
I do the same. All white pots in my west window and white vintage plates for saucers.
I use glass or crystal plates and pie plates from the thrift store under my house plants. You don't even notice them.
That is a beautiful flower arrangement! I worked 20+years as a floral designer.You must be talented like your sweet Mom .☺️. ❤ From Georgia
Laura and Aaron, your videos are never the same. That's why we like to see your doings every day
Those flowers look like they’re from Trader Joe’s , they seem to always carry English roses , love getting flowers from them . All of the plants you repotted are so pretty . Thank you for always making sure you give us the name of the plants , just in case we need to go buy one or two . The Hartley is the spot to be in it’s gorgeous in there 🌿🪻🪴
I love seeing how you use store bought flowers in arrangements. It gives me inspiration to purchase and arrange them myself. Thank you.
Amaryllis are also beautiful bloomers for Valentine’s Day!
So excited about the horses! I kept horses for years and still miss it. It's hard work but worth it. Make sure you can get electricity to water troughs to prevent freezing.
Good morning, Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b
Your arrangement is 👍beautiful and well balanced 👌
Happy Gardening Everyone and remember Appreciate more in '24!

Loved watching the floral arrangement come to life, and the music was so soothing. Thank you for starting my day off with beauty and calm. ♥
The rose arrangement is stunning . I picked roses out of my yard yesterday it was just wanted I needed.
very inspiring. I see these often, but have never thought of doing my own centerpiece.
Yay! 😁 a repotting plant 🪴 video.
Makes a chore seem like fun.
I also liked the background music
I am so excited for Garden Answer 2024. Between the dirt lands and the new property (i saw the fences) we are in store for some big changes! Congratulations to you and Aaron on living your dream you deserve nothing but the best
I totally get the puttering in the Hartley vibes ! I don’t have a greenhouse but a sunroom and I sure appreciate it .
I no longer have the sunroom with moving….thank you for helping me bring up it’s comforting memories. And now 20 yrs later will be downsizing once more will be looking for a new home with an eye to maximum windows if no sunroom is available. 💕
I'm not really interested in houseplants but spending time in the "she shed" is always fun! Especially when there's glimpses of the yard beyond.
Good morning!🌻🐝
Happy New Year, everyone!!!
All I asked for for Christmas was a geriatric cat. One that will be chill and want to snuggle, sit in my lap and be pet. Douglas looks like that perfect cat. If you sat down, would he want in your lap for a snuggle? The plants are so beautiful. And look so good when placed in groups the way you do.♡

Hi Laura, Hi Aaron, Here is an idea for the winter months: I would love a 'Day in a life of Garden answer' - video to see you process: From recording over file transfer to editing to posting. I would love to get a BTS :)

I caught that water my hands comment too. LOL 💕
Love this repurposed candle holder. This bouquet is soooo beautiful and romantic
This has been an unusual winter for many of us. Zone 8b and my ranunculus and freesia are already emerging vigorously.
Gorgeaous! Looked so easy to arrange. I'm gonna try it just as you did it, Laura. Thank you! You're a wonder!

Oh, how I long for summer. I am ready to see your beautiful roses and other flowers. I love the new containers!!
Gotta love Douglas behind Laura peering in the Hartley window!
I'm super envious of your greenhouse. Being able to pot houseplants during the winter without using the kitchen table would be such a joy!
Good morning, Laura ☕️ Looked like a perfect day to me. Enjoyed watching. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈🐈
Oh wow just so beautiful are the roses you. got. And the arrangement you did with them just so inspiring and beautiful. Just so good to see you planting up pots with not much todo yet in our gardens. Just looking so much to be in my garden more when springs here.
Welcome back after Christmas, I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday, your videos were definitely missed but I hope you had a wonderful time with the family
I just LOVE your greenhouse, it's so cozy and BEAUTIFUL.....bright and cheery with everything white and high ceilings, I could be happy living in there !!! 🤩 The arrangement was gorgeous, love the firecracker feel for New Years.
Hi Laura! The arrangement turned out pretty. Thank you so much for sharing!
Laura as always thankyou for taking us planting. Being in the Hartley brings joy to our soul. Cheers
Love the rose arrangement...you really have amazing talent❤
Laura, your arrangements are always so lovely!
Thanks for the flower arranging, Laura!
Thank you for sharing. That arrangement is beautiful, and those plants are so awesome. All those plants remind me of my sister. She passed 2 years ago, but everytime I see those types of plants, it really brings me joy. Thank you for sharing tips with plants, planting, and transplanting.
The rose arrangement is so beautiful! Those iron urns are incredibly gorgeous! Perfect for the Myrtle.💕
I just love to start my morning with a Garden Answer video 🌞🌱🍀. Good morning from Maryland 🦀
I watched a video this week about soaking the roots of amaryllis in water for 12-24 hours to make them bloom quicker with bigger blooms. I hope I remember next season just to see. Rose arrangement is beautiful.
I love the urns for the myrtles. I’m always looking for urns but I haven’t but looking in the right places. I can’t do that wire vine because of it’s common name. Gives me the Willy’s. Lol
I love the white wizard and a plant with Carmel in the name, which I’m waiting to see again.
That arrangement is absolutely gorgeous!
Beautiful rose arrangement makes me long for spring. The Hartley is so beautiful and I love when you film in it. Thanks for sharing ❤
It's a treat watching you shop for plants and yet another treat watching you repot them, like you did today. Ah, those English roses and wax flowers just bring a smile to my face and just love how Aaron always chooses the perfect background music to accompany your creations.

Lovely arrangement of roses! I have never seen those in the grocery store. How fun that you were able to get them. The plants all look so good. Happy New Year Laura and Aaron.🎉
I enjoyed this . I must say , I really love the greenhouse!
Drooling over those roses! I did some potting up this morning too. An Amaryllis I got for Christmas and some angel wing begonia cuttings I took from one plant outside (which is still thriving in this crazy warm weather we are having on Vancouver Island.) The cuttings were actually blooming!
Oh, the roses are gorgeous! I never find those in my area!
Beautiful plants and pots. Love the urns! Have a blessed weekend 💕✨💕
Love those urns and the arrangement.
Lemons Laura Grows; 🍋
-All yellow with all green leavess is an Improved Meyer
- Variegated lemon is Pink Lemonade
Always fun watching you in the Hartley. I’ve learned so much since I’ve been watching.
I try using white pots and love the look of them all together on my plant stand. I have 3 amaryllis, oldest is 3 years old. It bloomed first but only lasted a few days so I think it’s about used all its bulb strength. The one year old came next and was gorgeous. The 3rd is the newest , had two bulb stalks and each had 5 blossoms on it, just now starting to fade. So fun to watch and so lovely to add to the holiday cheer. Happy New Year Laura, can’t wait to see what 2024 brings to your beautiful home☃️☃️☃️💕
Beautiful arrangement! I see New fench up & old fench down! Can't wait for you and Aaron to share your new property update! I see a pool, a horse or 2 and a new barn for storage and a new production greenhouse!! 😅
I love your arrangement Laura! You always get the best presents (all the plants)
Good morning from Delaware Garden Answer friends.
Good morning to you. I'm from New Castle!
Such a beautiful rose arrangement and the plants you repotted look so amazing. Great video.
Hello Laura ..🎄🤍🎄
Lovely winter Roses
Arrangements 💐
Laura, have you thought of using plates as a saucer for pots? I found some at a thrift store that were so pretty and curved just right. I feel good about saving them from a landfill and they add a nice style to my pots.
I still use saucer but I buy glazed plates that cost a dollar.
Thank you for all of your inspiration!
The flower arrangement is so pretty! Love the house plants, thanks for taking us along!
As usual Laura, beautiful arrangement ❤. I cut pieces of garden fabric to cover large holes in containers and works great.
Such beautiful colors Just gorgeous roses a breathe of Spring in the cold winter❤
I started using those kind of pots also. Lowes carries them. Also my Christmas cactus are beautiful in this pots.i learned how to root Christmas cactus and even have single leaves in water blooming
Good morning! Nice to see you & everyone is doing well. Hope you had a great Christmas with the family!
Yes please , tradescantia refresh, installing pole brantiana philodendron and what's Variety of geraniums near the sink. Love the color.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone show us how to repot a plant like you just did by putting the original pot in the new pot first and working around it that was really neat. Thank you.
Your flower arrangement is beautiful...I love it. And the house plants are all wonderful.love watching you plant your house plants.❤❤😊
Beautiful….ive a huge amount of eucalyptus as it’s so lovely to be able to just cut your own out the garden….it’s nice having different varieties ,,,the small leaved one is so so pretty
The harley is full of beautiful plantas and that gorgeous flower arrangement ❤ good work Laura.
Having watched this video, I can understand how enjoyable it must be to putter in the Hartley on a cold day. I would die of heat stroke in a greenhouse here south Texas, haha :) I have seen you pot all the plants in there and the statue head is probably my favorite but many are such cute plants. The flower arrangement is lovely. Thank you for taking time to make a video during your Christmas vacation. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Would love to be able to purchase the pots with the handles!
I love your creativity and really like that you do not use gardening gloves....I really like to touch the dirt and smell it and feel the plants. What a connection! Happy New Year!
Those urns with the Myrtles look stunning.
I have the exact same iron urns from 20 years ago , San Diego , I painted them dark green and brushed on iron brown paint to seal them from oxidation
erosion . I have an eternal spray of chives in them Year round .
The vessel you used for the roses is perfect. Very rustic
The small heavy urns are perfect. Pretty sure I need those ❤
Love the way you flower design I have been a flower designer for over 40 years
Thank you for explaining about the "wire vine" plant. I was able to look it up and found out all sorts of interesting facts about it. You will need to keep an eye on it so it doesn't overtake an area, as apparently it can grow and vine up to 9 feet! It also loses its leaves and can get pretty little flowers on it. It has many names including ribbon plant, ribbon bush, tapeworm plant, and centipede plant. The best info I found was from the "Laidback Gardener", The February 2022 Houseplant of the month.
My armaryllis isn’t do “it’s either. It looks healthy, the soil is good. Not over watering and getting as much sun as is available in there dreary days. It’s just sitting there. After seeing your group, I feel better. We may have a flower eventually. Loved the roses you and Samantha purchased. Lovely in the dull days.
My favorite english roses
My daughter gave me 2 wax dipped amaryllis this year. I put them in a dough bowl with artificial greenery, and put them under my grow lights. They aren’t very tall but they were glorious for Christmas.
ahhhh... love putting things in fresh pots .. those roses are stunning!!! and yes, in the mood to clean up, clean out, purge, get organized!! here's to a fun and productive 2024! 🥰❤thanks for the video! 🥰❤
