Very wise to put a comment on the screen about the cats and baby bird… I admit I am a dog person but when I saw the cat behind you I gasped! Thank you again!

We have a koppert lab in our town, here in ontario, Canada. We live in a town that has always had the most greenhouse production/growers, and so the farmers use these for their crops. When people approach our town from far away even, they think they are seeing the northern lights, the sky glows purple and pink from led greenhouse lights. Lol I have been using those hanging tags for a long time. Actually, when ever you buy any hanging baskets or pots with flowers from nurseries here, they already come with the hanging tags. They work fantastic.

Benjamin is so cute, with his "there that should do it". I have a 10 year old son, and i always found it cute and amazing when they start to use expressive sentences that usually come from parents or teachers. Lol When you went out to plant, when it was overcast after the rain, wow, you can really see all the beauty and colour throughout your property on camera, with the cloudy skys. So pretty! What a beautiful property you have all put together. Love it.

I enjoy seeing Benjamin soak up whatever you are teaching him. He’s like a little sponge taking it all in. I learn a lot from you also. Thank you for all the work you put into these videos! So happy to see red in the garden! Yipeeeee

Videos like this one are why Garden Answer is close to 2 million subscribers! Love you guys!

Love the way you do your videos. I have tried to support other channels but honestly they talk excessively, do more tours than is necessary, etc. Just wanted to give a shout out to whoever edits yours. Kudos to you all. ❤ Love this channel.😁

Proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone! I think the red will be amazing!

How neat to see Samantha's Biltmore umbrella!! I live 20 minutes from Biltmore Estate. My great grandfather was one of the workers who built the house.

Fascinating pest control! I love that the typical home gardener can also purchase packets in quantities that are aligned for smaller spaces. Thanks for linking the company to the video.

I think the RED garden is going to be amazing. Can't wait for it to fill in.

Benjamin has grown so much! I still remember the picture you took of him last year standing over his crop and looking so proud. What a wonderful young man he is.

So glad to see you entering your RED PHASE! hehe! The hummingbirds will really appreciate that!

FYI: You can put the baby bird back in the nest. It's not true that the Mom/Dad will reject then due to being touched by a human. We have had to do that numerous times! Just make sure you are wearing a big hat, a rain coat that can go into the washer, gloves b/c you will get poop bombed while you are doing this. My hubs and I learned this the first time we had to do that for Robins.

I’m so happy that you are adding red to your flowers. I’ll bet you are going to love it! Everything is looking so beautiful. ❤

I just love the sound of rain. I think all the new red plants are going to be so pretty 😍

I’m glad you’re teaching everyone about using beneficial insects. It’s a growing enterprise and I hope your influence helps spread their use from home gardeners to commercial agriculture. PS: I wouldn’t find it distracting in the slightest if you wore sunglasses outside. Cataracts come from cumulative sun damage. Ask me how I know. It’s scary for me to know that I have eye surgery in my future because I didn’t take it seriously when I was younger. I’m 69 now. Good your children are wearing sunglasses!

I received an email from Heirloom Roses today: they are offering packets with four beneficial bugs to be delivered every month during the growing season. Love that I already knew the benefits from you!!!

Love this … for you and your kids! The way you include them and educate them is perfection!

The hummingbird arch is the males dance for the female😊❤️

Everytime you have a clip of yourself enjoying the rain or talking fondly of rain it makes me happy. Living in the northwest part of WA everyone gets annoyed by rain when it comes in the summer. It makes me sad because I love the rain!

the best part about this channel - i can see the genuine interest in helping others, when even though you have a paid version you keep churning out these amazing videos for folks! Bless ya!

The humming bird that was flying in a wide u shape (that grazed your face) was a male trying to "impress" a female to mate with him. They are so cute and funny, what a wonderful place to for them live in your bountiful yard!

The hydrangeas are gorgeous!

I love you so much for being responsible with poisons, and finding alternatives. 😍

I can't explain how much this video makes my heart swell. From beginning to end. Thank you for showcasing a responsible, beneficial way to control pests. Plus showing us it's ok to reach out of our comfort zone and try new things in the garden. 💗

What a perfect task for Benjamin! My 2 oldest are 2 yrs & 10 days apart, so I can really relate to your kiddo’s. Boy/girl too! Time flies as they are 22 & 20 now! ❤❤

Wow Laura! RED in your garden?! It will be glorious and you will love it more than you think! Can't wait to see it develop! Have a blessed day 🙏🏻❤

Does anybody else say "Hey Laura" before they click the video? 😅😂 No? Just us? Lol it's so fun! Love the channel. God bless 🙏

Can you do a garden tour with your mom walking around looking at your gardens?? I’d love to hear her thoughts and comments! 🩷

I was about to yell "Laura! Look behind you! Cat!!!" Thank God Laura can read our minds and immediately put up that notice. lol.

The Rose garden looks so beautiful ❤️

Oh my goodness you're blessed with a lot of rain I love to hear the rain beautiful beautiful beautiful!!👍👍🐸

Red is my favorite color. So glad you’re planting red. Hummingbirds will love them!

Laura, I am so proud of you for using red in the garden !not only do hummingbirds love it , but butterflies , especially Monarchs love it as well ! ❤

Afternoon Everyone 🥰

My gosh I can't get over how fast Samantha is growing. Seems she was just tiny not long ago.

The roses are doing really well! We’re a bit jealous of the wonderful and sudden rain shower you had. 😊

I love how respectful you are of pollinators and birds, taking such care not to harm them. God bless!

I love that you don’t over expose the littles in videos, but seriously a little boy putting bugs on a garden of roses is the cutest thing ever! And Samantha’s sunglasses! Oh my word! So cute!

Wow!! I just noticed in the background, on the west side at the beginning of the video, your trees are touching over the drive way, creating that canopy in parts, that you had envisioned! It’s beautiful 😍 🎉

The sound of the rain hitting the high tunnel was some of the best ASMR this morning! How long did the rain last before you were able to come out of the tunnel?

I always plant a red annual in my garden in memory of my dad who past away a few years ago. That was his favourite colour and honestly how can you go wrong with Mother Nature. If it’s by a plant that’s yellow or blue or whatever colour it’s all good. It’s still beautiful no matter what.

We use the packets for our house plants. I will never be without them again! I was able to control a thrip/spider mite infestation without chemical sprays. I love them. Thank you for the reminder, I need to order my next batch of the packets.

Birds are fledging now (last week of June - first week of July.) It's best to keep of your your pets indoors at this time while the babies learn to fly. Also that big swinging movement hummingbirds make is a mating dance to impress the ladies and they'll do it throughout the mating season, so there was probably a girl nearby.. And interestingly, bees don't 'see' red, although they do see orange & yellow, so it'll be interesting to see how many visit your red flowers.

Laura, you did some a beautiful job placing the flowers in that bed! I can't wait to see them in three weeks time! 😊

The hummingbird doing the arc flying was a courting ritual! That was probably why it brushed up next to your face. Other things on its mind.....another great video.

GREAT IDEA OF INSECTS. I love how your children are so interesting of the bugs. Benjamin is a great helper. Greetings from Switzerland

I’m so glad you’re trying beneficial insects instead of spraying. 💚🐝🦋

Seeing Samantha carrying that umbrella made me feel like a part of your video😊. I spent many years living near Biltmore and it's one of my favorite places. Asheville is a beautiful city---it's an all season paradise like many of our areas in North Carolina!

So glad you're planting red in the garden, it's one of my favorite colors to add a little pop here and there through out the my garden. Love mixing it with yellow!!

Love the rain!!! My parents were from Oregon and growing up we travelled all over the state visiting relatives. Love Larua and Aaron's videos so much. Watch them every morning. Thank you so much!!!

I think it's kind of cool that you went from starting a big club in school to starting on the path to getting thousands of people a new found interest in bugs

So much fun watching Benjamin helping with the beneficial bugs! I purposely watch your videos of the garden to see what plants are covered in bees. I have been a beekeeper for 10 years now and always looking to plant more flowers just for the bees.

Love that new dahlia! This will be really pretty! Love your umbrella Samantha!

Love that you guys areso conscious of the environment. I wish more commercial and home gardeners would do this.

I love how you understand the importance of not trying to CONTROL AND MANIPULATE nature Laura !!! You were taught well !!! Also, Benjamin and Samantha were so adorable. Benjamin is SO SWEET and he wants to understand....pondering what you are telling him and patient to listen. GREAT MOM AND DAD SKILLS AT WORK !!! 💥🙌💥 LOVED THE RAIN SEGMENT. As for the RED, I have a feeling you will become a fan of red in the near future. Your property is so huge, I'm sure there is a perfect place where red will fulfill a purpose aesthetically and practically (for the hummingbirds). In fact, I think that hummingbird buzzing close to your head was them thanking you "in advance" 🥰🤩.💕💕💕

Send the rain our way...hot hot hot in California

Good morning! So many pretty plants. I love the colors but I prefer the pinks, purples & blues too. Gardens with any colors are so pretty.

Oh my! The red does look good there. I love it.

I love all of the new flowers. I have to say the unplugged white are really beautiful!

You have just encouraged us that it's sometimes okay to step out of our comfort zone. Red is just beautiful in your garden. You've been missing out. Lol ❤

I had a moment of forgiveness for my garden when I saw the bindweed on the ground outside your high tunnel. I fight it all the time and it drives me crazy, and to see it in a famous gardener’s yard who has full time garden staff made me understand we all deal with this little devil 😂

Red and purple look great together too!

Glad to see your using red in your garden, I have it in mine and I love it.❤

I am really excited about the white salvia. Looking forward to watching how it does in your garden.

Just last night I was researching beneficial insects for my roses! This video came at the exact right time for me, and I'm definitely ordering them today.😃

Thanks for sharing those stunning white hydrangeas with us! Also, YAY RED❤.

I love the idea of a warm red area. We have a famous gardener here in the UK. He is Monty Donn and his red garden area he calls his "Jewel Garden " it's beautiful 😍 I love hearing the rain. It was so wonderful. Benjamin is growing up so quickly. Such beautiful children. X

So nice to see everyone, such a great bonding in the garden, The Hydrangea and the roses are looking gorgeous!

Look at you trying out something you think you won't like. Proud of you!

That’s a mating dance of the hummingbird!

I just love a quick summer rain & thunder storm but we don’t get them like that here north of Seattle. I call it “East Coast Rain” as I grew up in PA. My husband laughs but we were visiting SC and one came through and after 20 years together he finally got my reference. Thanks for sharing the storm in the video.

I am so happy to see you planting red in the garden. I absolutely love it.

Omg red plants say it ain’t so😂 but red is my favorite color so this makes me happy ❤🎉 love it Laura😂

Sometimes when my grandfather would fill the hummingbird feeders by his ranch house in NW Colorado they would fly around his head and even land on his shoulders. I think it would be fun for you and the kids to plant a hummingbird garden with lots of bright tube shaped flowers and evergreen trees for them to nest in. 😊💕🌺

I love how you take care of nature in your garden. I never heard of releasing beneficial bugs into your garden That's a great idea

That dive-bombing arc you saw was the hummingbird’s mating dance.

thank you for planting some red! it’s so nice to see the new red additions and how you use it in the landscape 🥰

Red ,Gold,and Purple look gorgeous together….my favorite…..hydrangeas look beautiful❤

I am excited to see the red in your garden. Sometimes you have to switch things up. Thanks for sharing your new pest control techniques I think that is awesome. Keep these ideas coming love it.

I immediately contacted Koppert regarding a similar problem I am having with my roses. Jarrod was very helpful and knowledgeable. Glad I have a source to go to next spring. Thank you for such a helpful video.

I loooove warm tones (peach, yellow, orange, pink, red) so I'm really excited to see this new area you've planted! I know your normal cool colors are very soothing, but I think the warm tones just bring that big hit of dopamine, personally. Excited to see it fill in!

I can't wait to see the RED fill in!! That Dahlia was perfect. It looks very much like one I got off-brand last year that I've been searching for ever since.

Beautiful plants. I like the red more than I thought that I would. That white salvia looks awesome too. So striking!

Lace wing are one of my favorite, I call them little greenies. They remind me of the idea of fairies 💚💚💚

I love the warmer annuals! They have a happy look!

Lovely rain, nothing better for all gardens. Great new plantings.

Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️

Interesting how the website says not to use Swirski mite on tomatoes. Wonder why. I released lacewing eggs in my tunnel this year and it definitely seemed to help. 💚 For anyone buying ladybugs, please check where they come from. Many are wild harvested, vacuumed from their home in the CA foothills, not only disrupting the sustainability of that population, but can introduce disease to your native ladybugs. Insectary is the way to go. Not Amazon. 🐞💚

Just a great video today lots going on. Even a baby bird made a appearance. Just so cute. Love the red Laura. Can't believe you planted red. Looking beautiful.

I love that you decided to go with some red, that salvia looks pinkish ❤

I think this combination is going to look beautiful. Excited for the updates. Lovely video, just bits and pieces of what is going on in the garden. Thank you.

What a great idea! Love the new varieties & that you have ventured out of your comfort zone. Hoping you will love it! ❤🌸❤️🪻❤️🌻❤️

Wow everything looks beautiful love the drone for bug release and all the packs of good bugs for your roses Benjamin is so helpful. The rain came sudden thank goodness you were in the high tunnel to bad it gets humid and moggy after the rain. ☔️

Benjamin!!! Such a good boy!!! Love him ❤️

Those are pretty reds, not shocking. The white in the background is good. Red colors in the landscape recede and they need a lighter color behind them. I think it will be beautiful!!!

WHAT RED LOL! that's going to be a beautiful mix Laura! Can't wait to try some of the new 2025 additions to P&W.

Bless poor little Beau's heart. He was so tongue-tied! Thank goodness Laura is articulate and could explain why he was there and what his company was selling!

Wait, WHAT? Did I miss some videos? The rose trees near the Hartley ... WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved that you planted red!! Would you ever consider having a section of your garden space dedicated to only red? I would love that.. I think it would be so beautiful!! 🌹🌼🌹
