It's kind of surreal to look at this whole area (walk from driveway, gazebo, brick patio, pallet walkway garden, back garden, the vistas) and know that 3 years later it's almost all gone/changed beyond recognition.

Your garden video tours are food for the soul. I’m bed ridden now, so your garden is the only one I get to spend time in and enjoy. Thank you. God Bless.

OH MY, YOUR MOMENT OF GARDEN INSANITY!!! LOL I was having a really hard day because this is my first time without my mom on her birthday. I knew watching one of your garden tours would cheer me up Laura. My mom absolutely loved her flowers. I know she has the most beautiful one in Heaven now. Thanks so much for sharing your love of gardening with us.

If my yard looked like yours I would never leave home.

Watching this in June 2024, love all the changes over the years 😍

You see a lot of work that needs to be done, we see pure beauty! 👏🏻 bravo!

Does anyone save these long tours and videos like a little treat for yourself, or am I the only one?! I’ve saved this for just the right time to view! So now, Wednesday 7/31 at 5:15pm in NC is my time! Homemade beef bolognese simmering for dinner, lawn freshly mowed by my awesome teenage son in time for a rain shower and hubby on the way home from work...ahhhh time to relax and take a stroll through Laura’s garden! 🥰 I earned it lol! 💁🏼‍♀️

Stone water feature for the lovely waterfall-like sound. A stone water feature would look lovely with a waterfall sound sitting on the sun porch.

Zucchini massacre and a moment of garden insanity!!! Love your descriptions. Everything looks wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing.

Who beside me, would love to see Aaron put out a calendar?🥰 🗓 🌺🌾🌻💐🌳🌸🌿

I must say that this world could use a lot more of you and your garden! Thank you so much for the joy you bring out in all of us.

I would be so happy and grateful to have you as a friend and neighbor. I have my 72 year old parents and daughter that would love to have a garden like your parents 😊.... I am a sole provider for them and my daughter, and I trying my best to make there golden years memorable. It's a true blessing to have your videos and advice. God bless you and your family, and thank you so much for all your help and support. I wish you lived near me 😭

It's amazing how you plan so carefully, but yet so easily. Every inch of the property is a treat to experience. Thank you!

That "wind storm" legit looks like a flippin Tornado xD

Every time you say look down this way...vista...it takes my breath away. Especially the first one with the black bench. The first thought I had was this vista reminds me of a scene in Notting Hill. I too love the expanse of green lawn ever so often, a place for the eye to rest. 💚🌺🌿✨Thank you so much and thank you Aaron for the perfect squash 🎼.🤣 Oh yes to planting the hedge of boxwood.

I agree with planting boxwoods where the hydrangeas are planted in front of the porch.( minute 33). And I like the idea of moving the pine and putting in a fountain with some boxwoods with annuals in the summer for a little color. Thank you for the tour. I like "enjoy the vista" . That's my excuse for not weeding when the heat index is 100 like today. My gardens look lush and tidy from my windows.

Great day to start with a cup of coffee thank you so much 👍🏽👍🏽

Oh my goodness!!! You and Aaron have taken what was okay when you moved in to your home only 3 years ago and made it a literal floral masterpiece!!! You may see what needs done but all I see is the beauty and glory of God's beauty that y'all have created in that high desert area. Thank you so much for sharing that beauty with us and encouraging us to keep making our areas, no matter how big or small into the beauty that we desire to see when we look out or walk out into our yards!!! God's best to all 3 of you and the cats and the garden, too. And, special prayers for your zucchini plant! Love you guys to pieces!!! Marian

I don't see work that needs to be done. I only see all the work that has been done and it is absolutely beautiful. It's such an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for sharing.

Coffee on the patio, nice weather now (going to be hot later) and Laura. Could not ask for a nicer morning! Love the Fire Light Hydrangeas but have to say that my favorite plant in that area was 2 (?) years ago - King Tut. Remember how tall they grew. Amazing!

The funniest part was the trumpet playing in the background for the Zucchinis😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂 that made me laugh so loud... ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Do you ever sit back and think about how much you’ve accomplished in 3 years? Your garden is looking magnificent every year.

Your chicken coop is the sweetest thing and, the garden surround couldn't be more beautiful .🌹❤

I agree to the boxwood hedge in front of the hydrangea! Your gardens are beautiful, was so excited to see the garden tour up this morning 😀🥰😍

I knew it! Yey! 💯 Garden tours are my fave Garden Answer video 😍🥰

Thank you so much for the inspiring and educational garden tour! What you and Aaron have done with this property is beyond amazing! There are too many beautiful things to mention, but I do want to thank you for showing the good and not so good things that we all deal with and then telling us what to do to fix it. Love the “Wah wah” Aaron added in with the zucchini! 🤣🤣So cute! You guys are wonderful!! May God continue to bless you, your beautiful family and your gardens abundantly! 💞💚🌸🌿

Please don’t apologize for your content, I love being along for the ride! And, it’s probably helpful to your viewers to see how reconfiguring can can be a long-term benefit to one’s property.

After going back and forth through these as much as I do I’ll be able to take you through a tour of your own house someday

Thank you so much for sharing. I keep checking if a video is out. Coz in India its time for evening coffee and it just gets awesome with your videos. It’s my wish to meet you in person one day. Maybe some day.

"The coleus has been kind of a thug"😂 TOUCHÉ

Perfect morning! Garden tour and coffee!!!😊☕

Yes boxwood in front of the limelights - yes! that space needs some formality! your garden is really coming together - I love watching the evolution of this overgrown property into this beautiful tour worthy garden space!!

The garden is turning out to be a work of art. Amazing job, Laura. 🌲🌳🌴🌷💐🌸🌼🥦🥕🥬

HURRAY!!! A garden tour! This makes my week....as I'll be watching it over and over again all week! A walk through your garden is such a joy, thank you. I'm also struggling with my zucchini and it helps to know I'm not alone.

the area between the gazebo and chicken coop is so beautiful!! it has such a magical feel ✨

Laura, I love, love, love that you are willing to show your gardens “warts and all” such a great learning experience for us all! Also I think it would be gorgeous to add a little boxwood hedge in front of your hydrangeas in the front porch area. Keep up the good work! 🌸🌼🌺💐👍😘

Yes for a garden tour to have coffee with Laura! Love the garden insanity moment and to hear you say things are a little willy nilly in some areas!! Everything looks wonderful and it is fun to see the things that take over or that don't do well so we have an idea as to how we would use the same plants. Thank you for all your hard work and for sharing!!!

An envious hello from Manchester, UK, where we are having endless torrential rain and my lavender is literally submerged. How beautiful your garden is and how infectious your enjoyment and enthusiasm.

Thank you for the garden tour...that makes my day i truly admire you and husband. Keep it up

The burlap looks cute! Maybe sewing a few together and adding some eyelets hang them might make it a neat draped curtain

I had a golden raintree cut down three years ago and the seedlings are still absolutely crazy. There’s hundreds of not thousands of them in my yard, three years later, and they’re impossible to pull up. I would never want one again!

Really enjoy your garden tours. Thank you for keeping it real! Many do tours but never show the imperfections but you not only show them but tell us how to fix it! Precious garden!🌹

YES ! . . . To Planting The Hedge Of Boxwood, At The Formal Entrance.

LOVE your garden tours, thank you for sharing with us! And thank you for sharing the "zucchini massacre", it's good to see/ know that even for a super experienced gardener not everything goes 100% perfect all the time.

What a memory or passion for plants to remember the names and the care.

Thank you so much for showing me that you can prune the heck out of something and if you water and fertalize it won't die! I have always been afraid of that.

Your gardens are Heaven on earth.💕

I get addicted to watch it ,everyday I couldn’t believe it.😂

I am in awe that you remember all those names. The chickens will love those rose flowers🐓

it's creative using the hanging baskets to grow tomatoes especially for decorations. I would love to use your idea later. thank you.

Yes to the boxwood hedge in front of the hydrangeas. Maybe lined with some colourful annuals, if there’s room.

40 Blissful minutes to start the day!

I actually really like the look of that burlap sack as a curtain. Super cute and rustic!

I can’t believe how GORGEOUS your gardens are becoming. It’s been sooo fun watching you tweak and build something your family truly loves. So glad to hear you say you are leaning toward the white for the long front entrance. You’ve got beautiful examples of cottage style gardens in a couple places. We have yet to see you go all out on an entirely white garden and whenever you do a tiny container in you, your joy is palpable. I think we would all love to see how happy you would be creating a gleaming, glowing, restful, wistful, peaceful white garden entrance to your home. Also, I think the boxwood hedge in front of the hydrangeas at the front of the house would be lovely. The you could back plant with something more wild or natural looking if you wanted or keep it nice and tidy. Maybe you could continue the hedge to the other side and help bring some of that balance you were talking about. Whatever you do, it will be lovely and we will love watching it. Thanks for all you do. 💚💛💜💚💛💜💚💛💜

All of the chickens following you in the background during the coop tour was so sweet and funny! Thanks for the updated tour❤

Great tour! Good for you to show the boo-boo zucchini and some over grown branches here and there, love to see your garden experiments too.

I've said it before... but your garden would be the perfect garden wedding venue. 😍

This is seriously my favorite channel!!! I look forward to Garden Answer every morning with my coffee💗

Love your garden, I want your garden at my house. I was wandering how the garden with the jack frost Brunnera was doing I don't think you showed us that one. I love the long garden tours. I feel so disappointed when it's the end. I always want to see more or wish it was longer. I could watch you two all day. I learn so much. I get so many ideas. I learn about so many new plants that I did not know existed, how they grow, and look throughout the season love everything. Such a delight to watch. Looking forward to the next video.

I very rarely comment on KZfaq videos, but I have to commend you on your beautiful gardens and your great videos. Your presentation style and helpful comments are wonderful!

this tour was beautiful to watch and you've done such an excellent job with everything. Unbelievable really.

You are such a treasure~ your gardens are amazing, as always! I absolutely love the chicken area and the "curtain" is adorable. 💖.🐣

I ALWAYS enjoy your garden tours. I don’t see anything past it’s prime. Every area is just gorgeous! I agree, putting a boxwood hedge in front of the limelight hydrangeas would be beautiful.

Yes, go for the boxwood hedge in front of the hydrangeas! It’s a step closer to your love of formal gardens ♥️🌿

Thank you for the beautiful tour, It's always such a treat to see your lovely garden! ☺️

Laura and Aaron your gorgeous gardens just take my breath away! 💕 💜 💚 💛 💗

Laura is correct about termites where places had too much rains. And termites are rooted to form bases such as palm tree mango and citrus trees and conifiers. Besides by the time they decide for pest control services,they can manage it.

Your garden areas are coming to gather Beautifully 😍 I have been watching ...for some years now. I love the way you see the vision of what a area will look like. And you are not afraid to try and try again. I'm sure part of your good results is your passion for gardening. Thank you🥰🌺🥀🌻🪴🌲🌳🌾🏵💖

I am impressed that you remember all those names of the plants😀

I'm just... amazed. God I have no words... what a huge home garden. Bravo for all of this!

Your gardens are such an inspiration. I have large garden areas and many are so random. I don't use annuals, ($) but I know you have many areas where you rely on perennials too, and I just love seeing your design and thought process with color and texture. I will watch this one many times to see different parts of the gardens and how they evolve. Thanks for the tour! I know weather has been crazy here (western Wasnington), but I have loved it, with more rain than in the previous 2 years. Plants are much happier this year I think because we aren't used to drought and this year we have reverted back to what has been a standard.

I must try for my shade the chocolate drop coleus and red impatients, Beautiful! Everything is just gorgeous!!!!!!! Thanks for the tour!

Wow!! I love your gardens. It’s amazing such a great show of plants. You have such a wonderful way of combining your plants. Your just a joy to watch. I don’t know how you remember all those names xx

Love, love, love! Thanks again, Laura for more inspiration

My favorite part of your yard is that pallet walkway and your cottage garden!!

Wow, what an awesome garden! Tending to it must be a full time occupation! Can’t imagine one having time for anything else!

Your garden is absolutely beautiful.I wanted to say I live in hot and humid Arkansas and Pentas are on of my all time favorites.they do great in the humidity and the butterflies love them.I absolutely love your weeping willow tree with the statue.Coleus is another favorite.. you remind me of myself when I was young flowers have always been my love and my husband and I spent our retirement years landscaping our yard .now he’s passed and I live on a little lot in town but I still have beautiful beds and I can just watch you all day.also it’s such a joy to see Benjamin he’s so adorable.

I've had insane squash bug infestations in the past; this year I planted nasturtiums and marigolds around my plants and I haven't had a single problem. Good luck!

garden tour??? You mean a country tour surely? It's HUUUUUUGE....that would be my vacation home, my everyday home, my marriage venue, my deathbed...the lot...i'd never leave. Love love love some of the plants, esp. the ground cover...I dont know the first thing about gardening, though I'm trying to learn very late in the day, and your videos are food for the soul. And I have to say, you seem like a delightful person, hardworking, cheerful, and blessed. Benjamin will be growing up in paradise :)

Yay! I can’t wait to wAtch this during the kids naptime!!

Everything is just beautiful!!! Don't we all wish to have a garden like yours, thank for the tour!

The deer loved the Sunflowers that i planted last year. Yum.

I have to know the super power that you and your husband have to where you both can work and water and maintain that big of a garden. My husband and I have 1.5 acres and have pumpkins, watermelon, tomatoes, peach tree, pecan tree, and lots of annuals and perennials and we both work and we BARELY can keep up. You two must only sleep 4 hrs a day hahahaha

Thank you, updates are always fun. Love to see how big things have gotten.

Your gardens are amazing! Watching your videos is a perfect jumpstart to my day while having my first cup of coffee. Although Because of health reasons I can't get out and garden anymore, I get so much joy out of watching your enthusiasm.

You and Aaron are a gift to gardeners everywhere

Oh my, watching you do a full tour exhausts me --- while I sit on my couch sipping coffee HaHa. You are like the energizing bunny, how in the world do you keep everything straight. I'm trying to figure where to put one Southern Belle Hibiscus and you run through two acres and know the name of everything. You are fantastic.

And the long videos are my favourite 😍

It looks wonderful! All the hard work is paying off. The hay racks are breath taking!

I pack my beds as well, can’t see the weeds till they are 3 feet tall. Love all the coleus!

i looove these tours! thank you Laura and Aaron🌸🌺❤️

Thank you for keeping it real. I learn the most from you that way.

Everything is evolving so beautiful. Yes to the box hedge in front of the hydrangeas. 💚🌷🌹🌺🌱💚

Your chicken coop and cottage garden with the pallet walk way are absolutely gorgeous!!!!😍

I love going back and checking the progress and making a comment. Lol

West side would make a beautiful moon garden!

Yes! So glad you did a full garden tour, I’ve really been jonesing for it. I love seeing how your garden evolves from one space to the other and how it all fits together as a whole. Thanks again Laura and Aaron I so appreciate all your hard work and creativity, your videos are my favorite way to start the day. 🥰

It’s truly like a park. So beautiful. TFS💚

I find that trimming the limelight hydrangeas tree hard in the spring creates stronger branches. That can support the blooms and will not flop down when it rains. Also, train the climbing Rose's in an S form on the trellis. Helps in creating more blooms. Thanks for sharing your garden. Enjoyed the video.

Perfect start to a morning!
