    Oh my God, Laura seriously you think that maybe !!! we take something away from you by you showing us how things grow. I don’t think you realize how much your videos influence and motivate us. I have so many of your suggestions in my garden. I feel like every turn I take it’s something that you have suggested or shown I just love your videos. I love all the things you show and suggest. I wish that I would write down more when I watch the video the first time so I can use them next year, But when I don’t, I go back to watch your videos again before the next season and that’s when I write down some of the flower names so I can look for it in my local nursery. And I have to say that I am really looking forward to trying that purple combination, that was gorgeous. Never doubt that everything you do affects the rest of us in such a positive way. Thank you for everything you do.❤

    Boy, I really love the long shade planter box! The Pegasus Begonia is spectacular along with the torenia, begonia and coleus! Stunner! I get to plant the pots at the mini mall where I work. It gets early morning sun and then shade the rest of the day. This would be a perfect combo for next year!♡ I planted a few of the Surefire Cherry Cordial Begonia in my front beds, and I love they way they glow when the sun hits them. Extra props to Rosa... she is working hard to keep all those beauties growing ♡
