Great video and advice about planting things to save them over the winter. Benjamin is just so darn cute and the joy in your voice when you see him is wonderful to hear!! Good to see Russell getting his paws dirty ;) I think the containers look good and the more you look at them I bet you will like them by the door. Love the bagpipe music for the pulling of the plants for sure!!!
Love your videos love those urns by your French doors and I especially love that you are willing to share Benjamin with everyone just a little bit. He looks like he is the happiest baby and the two of you as parents look like the model that all parents should follow.
Aarons moody soundtrack for pulling the petunias is hilarious!
I love the cone boxwoods at the front door, I don't think they look too small. Eventually you could get a second light to balance things out, for now it doesn't look bad. Benjamin just gets more and more adorable, and he is growing so fast. Russell is such a kitty, pretty funny he was digging in your pot in the dirt, I love his feet so cute like mittens. Loved this video, gives me some ideas that I can incorporate into my own yard and landscape. Thank you again Laura for sharing, have a wonderful day with Benjamin and Aaron.
Everything!!!! That's what I loved about this video!!! Everything!!! The flowers, the planting, your beautiful family, the chatting, seriously it was a joy to watch!!! Thank you!!
I think the cone boxwoods near the front door look great! They may seem small to you, but the other ones were way too big and look much better in the square containers. That's funny about the light! I think it's fine though. You could put a house number sign or a decorative art piece or swag there to balance things out. It would probably be more economical than getting an electrician in to wire in a new light.
The boxwood near the front door is beautiful you really don't need to move them during Christmas you can decorate them with lights. Benjamin is so adorable sweet. And Russell had me 😁 he was having a great time.
Russell is a crack up, he is your helper and loves to follow you around all your beauty. smart cat to have...
I like the boxwoods by the door. It was odd seeing Aaron without a hat. Nice hair, Aaron. Looks like Benjamin has your eyes Laura.
Amazing how the weather is changing I love be able to seeing This and how winter change real life. I’m a Floridian so we don’t have but rain hot no rain hot :)
The boxwoods look fantastic by the door!! I do agree about another light if you can find one. Love it all Laura, Aaron, Benjamin and Russell.
Love the bagpipe promenade music for the clean up!! So helpful, as always!
Love these kinds of videos where we get to see your day. And goodness gracious that Benjamin is ADORABLE. I mean, get that kid an agent.
Those topiaries looks so pretty way better than those humangous pots. You can just add the other light on top but you don't need to hook it up with wires, nobody will tell the difference if its wired or not. And I'm sure you dont need the light up there since you didnt even notice it till now. It will be perfect balance and problem solved.
Omg, this video had me laughing so much! I can't believe you've never noticed just the 1 light, it's always stood out to me... because I have issues. Lol Benjamin is so darn adorable, it's a joy to see him grow up in your videos. ♡
Oh, that naughty Russell...gotta love him!
I could watch your videos all day! Love how you explain every little thing for newbies like myself and share with us little glimpses of your family and kitty cat. All of that is a great start to a day! Good stuff! Keep it coming!
Hard workin' woman! Everything looks sooo beautiful, you're very talented and you make it look so easy - you give me incentive! Your darling baby has you gorgeous blue eyes! What a wonderful family you have and a great husband, too!
You have so much energy. Plus you are strong!! Love seeing Benjamin.
I would love a video about your strategy for picking plants for containers and in the landscape. How do you choose which plants to use? What are the steps to take to make sure the plants will look good together and live well together?
I so enjoy everything you and your husband accomplish in your Landscape! If you do add another lantern to this doorway area, maybe a pair of larger black ones would look fabulous flanking your French doors. Benjamin is so adorable and I love Russell too!
Baby's got skinny jeans
Laura, could you clean up those pots really well and spray them with Rustoleum "Never Wet". I used that on a few of my outdoor pots that stain and the water beads right off now. Might resolve your problem (and maybe get you another sponsor!)
That's what I would have done. I love those containers! I would have been hauling them out of her trash!
The "purple heart" or "wandering jew" is very very winter hardy. It'll die all the way back to the ground & come back vigorously in the spring. It's a spreader too! Makes a good ground cover or bed filler. They have really pretty pink heart shaped flowers that the bees also love!! I planted mine with sweet potato vines & they've intermixed with each other & it's so pretty!!
Setcreasea (pronounced set-Crease-ee-uh), or Purple Heart or Wandering Jew : I live in Dallas (zone 8) and mine wither and die back to the ground after the first couple of freezes, but they do come back in the spring (and so do my Creeping Jenny). I’ve got a bed in full shade and they love it, but I have some in sunnier spots and they do just as fine there. They are covered in honey bees summer mornings. And they are super easy to propagate. Simply break off a runner and stick it in the ground, literally. No rooting, no soil amending, just make a small hole with a stick and shove it in. It’ll sit there the first season, but next one you’ll have a small bush from one little runner. And I don’t think the runners root, so they’ll spread, but are easily controlled. They’re not gorgeous plants, but they’re super easy to grow.
Ray Bennett, I love the unique structure and deep purple colour of the Purple Heart. Even if it didn't bloom it would still look gorgeous to me but the little pink flowers are an added bonus. 💜
I'm in Fort hood texas zone 8!! We are about 2 hours apart!! Same with my wandering jew, it's in mostly shade & it does well. I have to trim them often to keep them maintained but they're such an easy plant!
Purple Heart or "Wandering Jew" is not hardy in Laura's zone 5, so it needs to be used as an annual outside however it makes a wonderful house plant! The USDA Hardiness Zone: 7 - 11 for these plants! It's not hardy in my area either.
You can water propagate cuttings of Purple Heart indoors and they’re more greenish and lighter purple in low light conditions.
The 2 big black pots turned out great with Russell's help. LOVE seeing Benjamin. And I like the small containers by the doors I think the bigger pots drew your eyes to them instead of the light
Love the boxwood planters! Can’t wait to see what you plant for Christmas!🎄
I love all the videos you guys make but the Vlogs are my very favorite! Your enthusiasm is contagious :)
Excellent video. Here’s a challenge for you and Aaron. Garden Answer 12 days of garden. A Christmas series (before Christmas) with tips, favorite garden tools, favorite plants etc. Short 3 min clips. Sorry but I can’t have enough of your channel. I always learn something new. ☺️
I think everything looked great love seeing your sweet Benjamin Arron’s music was so funny when pulling out the flowers. Lol!
I think those two containers look great at that door. You do need another light above the one container, to balance it out. Then you will see that they are perfect 😍💜🌵
I love how those containers next to the door look. Not to small. Remember you will be decorating for Christmas with evergreens around the door frame. But do get that 2nd light 😁
That little Benjamin is spoooooo cute I just want to hug him. 💜
LOVE IT. LOVE THE BOXWOODS WITH VIOLAS AND THE COLOURS. MAYBE ADD TWINKLE LIGHTS. MAYBE SIT UP ON WINTER/Christmas box for your door decor. Lovely family.
Bagpipe music isn't sad! I had bagpipes at my wedding.
I love the pipes! I think they just gave the plants a dignified departure!
I concur on the lights.I know how you feel about not noticing this. We get accustomed to our surroundings
Love the music addition, Aaron, as we say goodbye to the flowers!😂 you guys are the greatest and inspire me daily to get back out in my very neglected gardens after two years of eye surgeries😵
I think I would paint the large containers that you just removed from the double doors. Painting them a grey color with a white wash would help hide some of those hard water stains a little better. It's just a thought, they seem like such a great container especially if you're looking for height.
" I wouldn't need to plant anything else in there, but... im going to." LOL I love it.
I’m with you Laura. Got to have symmetry. I would have to do another light or it would bug me like crazy. 😉😄😄😄. I’m a soon to be first time grandma and seeing Benjamin is getting me so excited! My daughter is due November 9 and she is having a girl. 😃😍. You and your family are such a joy to watch and you and Aaron do an amazing job on your videos. Blessings to you and your family. 😍👍
I love that you share Benjamin with us too!
baby b is so cute now the fun begins and your right about buying plants to late there gone at least in my area
the smaller containers look perfect for me at least! those previous were too big
Love the bagpipes, haha! And Russell, what a feisty little boy you are! I couldn't help but laugh at his dirty paws (those paws!!). Thanks again for another great video!
Hi Laura, We found a 2 wheel cart saves from hurting our back when we have to move large items in the garden (like pots) I know your younger but please be careful carrying those pots. Love 💕 your videos!
Laura, you have the patience of a saint with Russell. 😊 Thanks for the tips on buy early...everything looked awesome!🌿🍂💚
Rebecca Wood Bixler awe cats are fun.. you never own them ... they live with you😊
I didn't know she had needed any patience with Russel. He is a very good kitty.
No patience needed, as a good cat lady🤣😻 you only see de joy in their playfullnes. I never can be a angry at them, even somethimes they reorganiz a flowerbed😂. It probable dident look as good as i thought so thats their to help you a hand🤗😉
I love those pots by the doors and would just use them for fall and holiday decorating with pumpkins, tree cuttings, corn stalks, etc, then you can still use them without having water involved! Can't wait to see what you do with them!
I appreciated the bagpipe music, lol. I love how you say “just gonna grab a few plants” and then come out of the greenhouse with a whole wagon full! 😀 I think the box woods look like the perfect size right where they are. 🌲
“like I wouldn’t need to plant anything in there to have it to look finished... i mean i’m going to!”
me too, Laura, me too
My cat Missy, who I had for 19 years, followed me around the garden from job to job. She's been gone for 7 years and I still look for. Enjoy Russell's company.
evan Gonia, this was my favorite part. She's so funny.
Haha as soon as she said that I laughed and thought oh but you’re going to fill them! We are the same in that
Lol
Yay I am not the only person that wants balance and even things lol!
Keep them up next to the door,
the scale looks great and Christmasy to me.. love you and your wonderful videos and inspirations.I just play your videos throughout the day while I'm working and you keep me going and in a fall and festive mood. Thank you and your husband and your beautiful son you are appreciated
3 things. 1) Benjamin(sp?) Is getting so big! 2) This is the first time and I remember see Irises in you garden. Could you do a video about care and upkeep of Irises? 3.) I love these kind of videos! The vlogging type with talking about the plants. And thank you for sharing your garden 😊 and your life.
Love the red violas. I think the boxwoods and the planters look great my the front door. I don't think they are too small at all. It was just to other planters were taller. I love the bits and pieces of seeing Benjamin and Russel in the videos.
Love the bagpipes music and Russell’s dirty paws. I think the boxwoods look great there.
I love the boxwoods by the glass doors just get bigger outdoor lights on either side. Your window boxes are large so you don’t need large planters.
Oh my goodness, the light!! I’m glad I’m not the only one who is like this, lol! Yes it does need another light, something a little bigger, imo. great ideas for fall, keep the coming!!
Everything looks beautiful. You are so good with Russell if you didn't see him digging his feet would have given him away. Lol! 😸
If my local garden stores are anything to go by I’d say you could take those pots and charge double for them as a “patina” since everyone lately loves those
The smaller containers look really nice--a nice balance with the wreaths.
Ha! Russell is just helping you dig. Cats are so fun! Love your videos. Benjamin is so freaking cute! Luv the Scottish music.
I think the box woods look so good flanking the doorway! The doors with the wreaths are the focus. It’s beautiful the way it is, except I’m writhe you on the light😀❤️
Welcome to motherhood. The minute you go to do something there up.💓💓
i like the boxwoods there! i think you were so used to the bigger plants that it's hard to see it... that is funny about the light! and Benjamin, oh my, he's getting so big and he's just too cute!!
Laura, what if you put some kind of decorative boxes under your planters to give them more height. They will be cute with Christmas lights! I really like them.
The new planters by the door look great...With regards to the light fixture, if you were to hang something that was approximately the same size and tone in colour it would trick your eye/mind into seeing symmetry. That could be an option whilst you source a new pair of lights. You might be hard pressed to find an exact match. Love Russell and his work!
They are pretty small by these large glass doors but the red and purple pansies are pretty with the boxwoods. I really like that red and will look for it next spring
Can't believe how big Benjamin is, he is growing so fast. You and Aaron are going to have so much fun this year for his first christmas.
Very nice Laura good job the containers look beautifull you do work hard be careful by lifting those heavy plants and pots ..good job love it 🌾🌿👍
🌻Awesome video. Love the Arborvitaes new home. Benjamin is so sweet and adorable.
🐾🐾🐾 BUT Russell stole the show!!! When you saw him in your pot, it was PRICELESS!!! 🐈 I laughed so hard at you talking to him about his feet😳😳😳. There are no words to how funny that was.
😂😂😂You are so funny. One light there will drive you crazy after 3 years of living there! I bet there will be another one there soon 😊.
Thanks for making my day! 🤗
very pretty and I love your little black pots on each side of your door and I love the plants you have planted in them to
Regarding the missing lamp. It's hard, I know, but maybe you could try something asymetric there? Symetry is pleasing, yes. But a lot of things are cozy and quaint exactly because they are not perfectly symetrical. Same goes for the entrance with the AC unit. Lean into the asymetry sometimes, and see if you can do something that maybe is out of your comfort zone, but is different and chalenging and therefor, in the end, more satisfying. Just an idea :) Green Love 💚
Put some white violas in the pot. You can put one more light and then the containers will be OK.
The pots look great! I hope you bring on the animals for next years gardening season. Maybe the chicken coop or ducks. That would be so exciting!
I think the smaller pots look perfect...but definitely another light. Oh...and Russell says to worry about your own dirty feet...or at least that’s what MY cat told me he said. 😜
I think Russell adds extra joy to the garden. :)
I always watch for Russell's cameos. He seems to love supurrvising the work in the garden.
Everything looks great.
Yes, another light would complete the look. The pots look good. It's that you are used to looking at the bigger ones. Lol
I love these videos when you’re vlogging and talking and we get to see more of your process! You’re so funny and it’s amazing content (:
Love violas, windy days are nice, next time you plant purple heart let me know I'll send you all you want for free. Just got back from brownfield, tx. It's flat and very windy there, got home to San Antonio, and is been cold and raining for days lots of flooding here. So yard work came to a halt. Love the vid now I can't wait to go back to normal.Thanks you guys.
The hard water adds an interesting patina to the pot. (Art)
I love the arborvitae in the new pots and the arrangements you surrounded them with and also the boxwoods by the doors. The single light would drive me nuts, too! We're supposed to drop to 43 degrees this afternoon and a first frost tonight (Upstate New York) so I'm afraid I'm going to lose my coleus, too. I was able to plant my 50 tulip bulbs and 30 allium on Sunday. I still need to get my garlic in, but unlike your area, we've had a ton of rain and warmer temps lately. I also want to say that I have learned so much since finding your channel and have received so many compliments on my garden this year. Keep it up! Russell and those paws. Too funny! And, Benjamin. . . .such a cutie pie!
The Purple Heart is only hardy in north central Texas in the ground. I always have it come back in spring as long as I have planted it in the ground.
I think it turned out beautiful and I don’t think they look too small. Looks great!
The small planters look just fine there.
😊😊@Benjamin....soon, he'll be snatching that phone to actually say, hey mommy...😊 and the Golden Arborvitae look fab in their new position...
Love the boxwoods!!!
The arb’s look great in their new container. Can’t wait to see Christmas lights on them.
Try putting them on a pedestal. I think they would look good that way
Love it. These videos really do bring me joy
I LOVE FALL! Those urns are two of my favorite containers. The violas planted with the boxwood cones look so sweet in them. I do think that the urns are too small to use there unless you put something larger (another pot?) with them. Definitely need the second light. How HAD you missed that all this time? Lol. The Rose of Sharons are going to be great where you put them. It was nice to see Benjamin and Aaron. Baby boy is REALLY growing! Russell is funny. He thinks he's SUPPOSED to be where you're working! Thanks for another great video. God bless you & your family. 💜
You just bring me joy! I haven't been following you for so long, but now I just look forward to watching all of your video's.......in such a crazy world it is so lovely to have you and your gardening...thank you for sharing your world!
Lovely, hopefully we'll get to see more fall projects like this, gets me inspired
To remedy the height problem with the boxwoods have Aaron build you wooden boxes to the proper scale and paint them to match the containers. Mount the containers on the boxes and they will be the perfect size!
Aaron, you're a very funny man, playing the pipes at the "funeral."
Benjamin is adorable!
I would love a mama vlog of your routine with Benjamin or a completely different mama channel!! 😍😍😍 anyways I love your videos Laura 💚 you’re so motivating and inspiring thank you for your content 💚
I love your video's and start my day with them!!! You have a beautiful family❤ 😊
You are so fun to hang out with! Great video
This was great, a little bit of everything! The arborvitae look great in the square pots. I thought, how is she going to fit those giant cabbage in there. And then you did! I should have known better. I think the one light would end up bugging me as well. If you end up getting a second one installed I would suggest going with larger fixtures! Maybe some company would love to send you two new ones. 😄
Great garden vlog. Thanks for a couple winter friendly plants!!!
You three are adorable:) Oh , paint the existing light white spend more time with your young family!! Their only little for little while! My daughter is 33:)
i think the boxwoods look really nice by the door. you can always put something under to elevate them a bit, if they seem too short :)
I love watching Benjamin. He’s so cute😍😍😍😍😍😍
I can’t get enough of garden answer! I watch over and over!
You are so much fun to watch !! Music is awesome Aaron/Laura and Benjamin !!
