"I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose I would always greet it in a garden." Ruth Stout. Your gardens are amazing. Truly. Thank you for sharing.

Your video today was an offering of peace amidst very turbulent times. We live in a suburb of Minneapolis and are in need the spirit that flowers can bring. I scrolled right past the endless fear-driven news posts to find a glimmer of hope in your garden. Thank you. 🌸

Laura, you are my idol. It is unbelievable the energy you and Aaron have to keep all this property looking so beautiful

Your garden is my favorite, and I enjoy waking up to your videos every day. My 10-year old daughter and I love watching your videos together, and we planted in our garden yesterday . My daughter said “Mom, if Garden Answer could see everything we planted today she would be so happy!” Lol Thank you for sharing, it definitely gives us inspiration 💗

I'd actually love another video where you just go around and water things early in the morning. Just the sound of the water with different views of your garden would be peaceful and amazing.

The birds are singing, my coffees hot, and it’s an hour long garden tour. It’s a glorious day!! 👩🏼‍🌾

Hi Laura! Quick delicious Brussels sprout “recipe” that even my very picky veggie hating husband likes. Cut in half, coat in oil, and s&p then roast between 400-425 till golden brown. When they look good to you drizzle over some honey and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Let them sit in the hot oven for a few minutes to warm up the honey and have it caramelize a bit then toss and serve. So good! I love the crunchy sweet and spicy leaves that pop off during baking the most. Hope you see this and like it!

I have been growing plants sense I was a child, But the thing is ,I have learned so much from you guys. Thank you for all the awesome things that you do in the plant world. you both are awesome.

I love how you actually give us a "guided tour" and you don't just film random clips with background music playing like some youtubers. I feel like we really get a good sense of the layout this way. Are you going back to your parent's garden for another tour this summer?

“If you watched the whole thing...” ;) I might watch it three times!!! 👏🏼💕👏🏼💕👏🏼💕👏🏼

"I Do have plants waiting in the green house for these spots, haven't had the ❤heart to pull em' out, But their time is comin' very soon"! 😂😹 Didn't realize how funny she can be!!

I like when Aaron zooms in the flowers and we can see the bees working 🐝❤️

I’m showing my husband this!!! He makes fun of me for running to grab the hose as soon as I see my hydrangeas drooping. We could be on our way to church & if I walk out and see drooping, I’ll stop everything & water! 🤣

Plant strawberries on strawberries in Benjamin's play area. He'll be a happy camper!

I can’t believe how gorgeous everything is!! How do you possibly have time to do all this work. WOW 🤩

Loved watching your tour. I could sit through “movie length” episode. Thank you Aaron and Laura.

OMG - I actually screamed out with happiness when I saw an hour long video tour :) Soooo happy. I was just re-watching the April tour (for the 100th time) this morning

Thank you for reminding us that sometimes you need to let plants rebound, to be patient, and that sometimes things don’t work and die...even in your garden! It makes me feel better as a new gardener!

Hi Laura, I wanted to take a moment and “Thank You” for your magnificent garden tours 💗🥰💖 I was feeling a little blue and whenever I feel this way, I tune into your garden videos and before I know it, I feel much better! You bring me to feel a lot of joy seeing your beautiful garden and I want you to know this 👍🥰👍 God Bless You, Aaron, Benjamin and your extended family, Sincerely, Chris-Raleigh NC

I don’t understand y u r so hard on yourself. Your garden is absolutely beautiful and inspiring! I can’t imagine how lovely it all is in person! I have only grown vegetables and am now inspired to add some landscaping filled with flowers for the bees and to beautify my property! Right now it’s a very nice simple lawn! Thank you!!

Two cups of coffee and a garden tour what a great way to start the day. Love it! Thank you for what you do. 🥰

🎩 hats off to Aaron for his steady hand🙌🏼filming👏🏻 some videos lately have made me🤢with the bouncing & rocking. Always a pleasure to see your home💚all your hard work of love💕Thank you!🌻🐝eaUTIFUL😊

When life returns to normal, you should do a garden tour in Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC. You would adore the gardens of the south. Your viewers would enjoy it too. I’m sure they would love to have you come! It would be such wonderful publicity for them. We southerners love you, your family and your garden!

There is no way you could have known how much we all needed a video like this today but I thank you anyway. Your videos are always so educational, entertaining, and soothing. When I need to escape the day I head straight to your channel and watch videos until I can compose myself to carry on. I know you feel bad if things are not exactly perfect, but it really does reassure me that I'm not alone with a few wilty, brown leaves, and things taking over where I don't want it. Your "formal lettuce garden " lol has inspired me. I'm looking for the right variety to plant as a ground cover in my front flower bed in spring. Thank you both for being the sunshine in a stressful environment. Your hours of hard work for projects, filming, editing, answering questions, and sharing your journey are very much appreciated. You make a difference in more ways than you know.

I love that you show the imperfections as well. This is just my second year gardening and so many times I have felt so discouraged because it doesn’t ever look perfect. Watching you struggle with watering made me feel so much better.

26:45 the name of that is : Thalictrum aquilegifolium hybride 'Black Stockings'. Greetings from Germany. Hope the storm won't do much harm. 🤞

There’s nothing more relaxing than watching. a garden video such as your garden tours. Keep up the good work! 🤓🌷🌿🌺🌷🌿🌺

Your videos could NEVER be too long for me! I enjoy every minute. Thank you for this tour; everything looks wonderful.

I don’t know who wouldn’t stick around to the very end!! 💛 Everything is filling in amazingly! You’re doing a fantastic job of putting colors and textures together. I also like that you show us that you take things out that don’t do well - it’s freeing to not feel guilty when I do that too. About those random sunflowers popping up...I bet they’re from the bird feeders you had hanging in the tree near the gazebo 😊

The plant you can’t remember the name of at 26.48 is Thalactrum Aquilegifolium, also known as Greater Meadow Rue. (I think 😊)

Got my 🐶 on my lap and my ☕️ in hand, ❤️ these tours!

I love how the cat always makes an appearance in all your videos - I always look out for him!😁 Your videos have given me so many ideas. Thank you for sharing x

26:47 Thalictrum, probably ‘Black Stockings’

For cooking brussels sprouts, my family always loves to have them cut in half, drizzled with oil and roasted on a sheet pan so the bottoms get a bit of browning but the centres are soft, then tossed with some bacon chopped into small pieces. Your garden is looking absolutely glorious! So so much inspiration 😍

Your garden tours are never too long for me,I learn so much from you, I love your energy ❤

Love this , I can't wait to have a vast land where me and dada are gonna fill with great grass, flowers and trees....wow .my prayer

Laura (and Aaron), thanks so much for the full tour. I know it's a lot of work for the two of you but I wanted you to know how much it's appreciated. The highlight for me was all the alliums. They look awesome! The perennial salvia look terrific too.

How about make your own stepping stones for Benjamins area and put his hand prints in them.

I never EVER comment on anything....could not resist....YOU ARE AMAZING! Thank you for all of your wonderfulness!

You could record your videos in black and white or use a “photo negative” filter and I’d still watch. Your enthusiasm would allow me to imagine the colors and beauty. 🤣 I know you want to bring us the best POV as possible and you two do a fantastic job, regardless of who is recording. Laura and Aaron, your videos have not only been informative and inspiring but they are literally a visual pacifier whenever I’m feeling anxious or when work is stressful. So thank you for being on my TV darn near 24/7. My zen channel. Thank you. 💕

Great tour! I am sure it is exhausting. But I wouldn’t mind an even longer tour.

Hi Laura, your garden is gorgeous. Don’t apologize for anything in your garden, that’s the way it is! Relax and enjoy it. Thank you for the long tour I was waiting for it. Yay 😃

really appreciate detail tours, i honestly wouldnt mind even watching a 2hr one!

You are light in a darkening world. Happiness in a garden with good people makes it a place people want to visit. You have taught me so much about gardening. All you need is a couple of Cane Corso great family dogs.

Yes Laura, we watched the whole tour and we love it! I brought food and drinks before I started viewing so that I could appreciate everything you showed and said 😊 Great job Aaron in capturing the beauty of the garden 👍

Did anyone else pause the garden tour video multiple times to lookup information on some of the beautiful plants to see if they work in your zone? Lol, I did several times! Love the tours! 🌺

What a wonderful tour! I suggest you do a project with Benjamin and make your own round garden stepping stones. You can easily create a mold and pour concrete in, and when it is slightly firm, Benjamin can 'write" on them and decorate them. It would be a fun project for the 3 of you and would create a wonderful memory for him. Plus, every time you are out in the garden, they will make you think of your beautiful little boy. Glad to see you spotlight the huge Globe master Alliums! I just can't get enough of those. They just look magical... What is the name of the blue iris that smells like grapes? I may just want to plant some of those..... :-)

Laura your gardening chanel has been such a blessing in my life, I've been subscriber for about 2 years now and I'm still learning so much everyday...I have been collecting ideas and started my own notebook.(dollar store titled "Just Bloom") This is a hobby that I absolutely cant get enough of, I want to THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for your video's and knowledge, looking so forward to the new property planting. Bless you and your family for all you do.

You tours are always a joy to watch. But I must give kudos to your turf master! Your beds are glorious but they are absolutely set off by the wonderful expanse of gorgeous turf. And I know keeping your turf looking so great is no easy task. 😁

🎉What a way to start a morning! 🎉❤️☕️🚜🐈🐈🌸🌹🌼❤️🎉 Gorgeous garden, love the colors and layers.

I watched the entire thing! My favorite color is chartreuse. That lawn is gorgeous.

I do watch your garden tours. I leave it playing while i cook, eat, work. You are like my company.

Of course I watched the whole thing!! Now church starts in 15 minutes. Perfect timing.

Make those stepping stones! Cake pans lined with cooking oil + mix up some concrete + have Benjamin put some hand and foot prints in them, or put some pretty stones/shells/glass cabachons, etc. Oh my word, what fun you guys could have!

"If you watched the whole thing" ... You could put up a 4 hour video and I would make a pot of tea and sit and watch the whole thing with joy!!! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful garden, you are such an inspiration! I watch your tours with a little note pad and write down what plants I want to add to my own garden :)

This was so wonderful that I watched it twice! It brings me much needed peace and happiness during such a tough time. Thank you!

I love these tours. Thank you so much for inspiring me - I never had any interest in gardening until I came across your channel.

Your tours show everything, not just the success, and I really appreciate that! Thank you for being so accessible!

You have such a beautiful home, and yard. Your gardens are to die for. They all look so healthy and lush Thanks so much for the tour. I know it takes so much work and commitment to keep gardens that beautiful. I can really appreciate all of the work you and your husband put in. Sounds like you have a great partnership.

Never get tired of y’all watching your videos! I wish you were my friend In real life so you could help me with my garden lol

YAY! A tour video! One of my favorite videos to look forward too. I love this channel, thank-you too​ all who made it possible! Much Love 💚💮

I stayed though the whole thing... enjoyed every minute! Thanks for the tour. I hope you get a chance to give us another tour of your mothers garden as well, once everything has bloomed and filled in. Beautiful

Watching in May 2022, so much has changed in such a short time...pine trees near gazebo, the gazebo, circular brick patio with center bed, the potting shed, lengths of fencing, and the front of the house beds are all gone...didn't realize how much you have accomplished in so little time!

Beautiful garden area! So inspiring! I wouldn't get anything done but gardening because that is all I would want to do! I hope you know how blessed you are to have all that space, I love making/watching things grow, especially from seed to full plant!

I love this channel ❤️, not only is she an awesome 👏🏻 gardener she’s also made for the camera 🎥 no one else can even hold a candle to Laura !Some other gardeners just go blah blah blah

Although it is harder to see in the sunlight, I really appreciate being able to see how the sun hits in some of your beds. I was hard to image the amount of sun you actually get in the other tours. Thanks for going ahead with the tour! 🤗💓

I'm a late bloomer. I love flowers. I just found your channel. I am so impressed with you. You have inspired me so much. I would love to have you as a neighbor... I enjoy your excitement

Not only is the tour so interesting and educational...but you, the gardening guide are very friendly and natural. Bravo!

Thank you!! Today I finished installing my drip irrigation system! And it was SO EASY with all the videos you created on drip & always repairing your system 🤣It will make my gardening life easier. Love your tours and seeing how your beautiful property is blooming! 🌺

🌿🐝Another beautifully presented tour...I could just “wonder” around (pun intended..lol!) all day long! As I’m new to the gardening world, I can’t help but be amazed by the time & care gardeners put into their spaces...not just an investment of money (which, let’s face it, can be extreme🙈) but it’s an investment of the gardener, themselves...their life...time spent that cannot be taken back. Now, when I see planted up spaces, or even minimal gardens meticulously trimmed & pristine...I see life for life. Ok...I better back off the caffeine...my mind just went on a philosophical adventure. So...love the tour!😂🤣🐝🌿

For what it's worth, the bright, sunny tours are far prettier than the overcast days.

Your tour gardens are always a joy to watch I cannot imagine anyone getting tired of watching your programs keep up the good work you and your famly. God Bless you and always enjoy gardening. 🐱

The birds that we feed have dropped some random sunflower seeds here and there. I leave the sunflowers when they pop up. It makes me laugh. It's like a tribute to where all those little dudes have been.

Omg, I loved this garden tour! I found myself pausing the video and writing down the names of plants I'd like to add to my garden. Thank you for sharing.

This is so beautiful. I'm sure these long tour videos are a lot of work, in addition to everything else, but thank you for sharing!

This is divine. Your hard work has paid off, you must be so proud of this paradise

Don’t ever apologize to us about having to water or anything. We love to just watch you in your natural care for your gardens!💚💚😘🙏🏻👍👍👍👏👏👏

That looks like a meadow rue (the plant you weren't sure of the name).

I love your tours. Your hard work is definitely showing throughout the gardens. I love those huge globe alums. I must plant some for next year. I need to cut some trees down so I can have more Rose's All your Roses make me want more. Thank you for taking the time to share with us. You and Aaron have done an excellent job with this channel. We all love you both plus Benjamin. Have a great day.

Loved your gardens. Thank you so much for taking time showing us and sharing your experience with us .😘😍

The bright sunshine against all the greens in your garden, giving a magical glow....so beautiful!!....what a day for your garden tour.. Thanks for sharing...

Thank y’all so much for doing this tour! I can’t imagine how much work it must be for you. Laura, I feel your pain about digging out things that still look beautiful. I can hardly do it! Everything, especially the roses, is just spectacular! Thank you for taking the time on individual plants and giving updates. It really helps to know how long plants have been in the ground to know about what to expect from year to year. Aaron, great job as always with the videography! Awesome tour! Cannot wait to see the diamond mountain euphorbia on the west side. It is going to be great! Thanks again! ~Sherri 🙌🙌💚🌿🌷🌳🥦

Laura everything is looking beautiful, never expected to see any thumbs down, what is there not to like, just don't understand why anyone can give a thumbs down, Laura and Aaron are the sweetest of people. 💖

Never thought a garden could be this big with such varieties and neat at the same time ! Thoroughly enjoyed your video so much. Thanks!

The mystery perennial is Thalictrum or Meadow Rue. I love them too.

Just make some round stepping stones for Benjamin's garden. He can help you make them. Shade cloth for the chicken coop?

When I was growing up, we actually made our own round concrete stepping stones. It was very easy to bend a strip of thin paneling board around into a circle to make the mold. Set the panel strip hoop into a wetted square-framed wooden box that has been oiled well with any flavor of oil. Then just mix up some fine grained cement and fill the mold(s) and let set vor 2 days before turning out your new concrete stepping stone. Repeat for as many stepping stones as you need. Dont forget to memorialize hand prints, foot prints, paw prints, names, dates and leaves into the semi-dried cement.

The pleasure is all ours to watch your garden tour! I got the full experience today. I was able to get out of bed and everyone else is still alleging so I went out to water my garden and found it rained over night so spraying down my driveway with natural weed killer isn’t an option either. So I turn to KZfaq and have an hour of uninterrupted beauty while I drink my ginger tea.

I love how she always asks Aaron questions and you never hear from him behind that camera. I wonder what he’s doing lol!

You could make a tour that was 2 hours long and I’d watch. :)

Great tour. Everything was full and lush. Don’t even mind that a few plants had a little chlorosis in some areas as I know you will take care of them. Love the little stories of Benjamin eating green strawberries and how much his teepee beginning to enchant him etc. didn’t see Russell in this episode; missed him. Love the way he follows you around the gardens. Love all you guys do and love the sweet and humble personality that. Ones through. You’re the only garden show I watch. Cynthia from OH

Remember to close up your umbrella in the chicken coop before the wind storm. Love the tour. Beautiful as always.

Instead of round concrete stepping stones for Benjamin’s garden why not try sliced pieces of a tree trunk?

Thank you for making my Sunday morning so darn wonderful! Coffee and watching your videos is a great time for me. I love the layered look area. Plz do a video on areas of your garden that captures sunrise and sunsets......maybe also mom’s garden too???🌅

Love your video's honestly one of the most beautiful gardens i have ever seen❤🌼🌻🌺

The sound of water in the garden is beautiful! and such a must.........soooo relaxing to say the least.

Greetings from Durban, South Africa 🙋🏽‍♀️ It’s the first time I catch your video as soon as it is uploaded. I love your videos 🧚🏼‍♀️

I love these hour long garden tours! :D

You are a ray of sunshine and peaceful rest in a sad and difficult time. Thank you for being you!

I watched the WHOLE thing... and you posted it on my birthday. :-) The garden is looking just lush and beautiful. I love your genuine enthusiasm for gardening... it's infectious. I wish I had your energy ... you are a dynamo. At 68, I can't expect that... but am impressed with how much you get done. I hope the garden didn't get too slammed by the weather. I'll have to check back to see how things held up.
