I am now 80 years old and when i was 20 and working my way through college, i worked on Mackinac Island. We called the tourists fudges because everyone was carrying boxes of the fudge. People love to see the old fort. i noted your picture of the horse pulled carriages didn't show the deposits that the horsed left behind.. The Indian Reservation was important. There is so much more than those beautiful homes.

Hi Laura! I heard what you said about Oak trees and losing their leaves. I know you all have issues with your alkaline soil and thought you could use this information, that many people are not aware. When Oak tree leaves break down, they become acidic and make the soil around the tree acidic, which makes sense since Oaks prefer acidic soil. I live on Florida, zone 9 and this area is covered in old giant oaks with moss hanging from their branches. They are very old, large, majestic trees. If they grow in your area, you may want to plant several of them in one area, as their roots grow rather shallow and they use each other’s roots to form a strong underground plate to keep them from falling in strong winds, which I know you all have. If you were to establish such an area, maybe on your most newly acquired property, near the already wooded area, you could rake up the leaves each Fall and spread them to mulch other areas of your property to help with your alkalinity issues. Just a thought.

One of the easiest ways to propagate hydrangeas is by layering. Bend a lower branch under soil level while attached to mother plant (a landscape pin or rock can help hold it in place) cover with soil- then by next season it will form roots and can be clipped from the main plant and transplanted. I've used this method several times with good success. Thank you, Laura and Aaron, for sharing your journey- every vid is a treat!

It's important to have principles, it's also important to know how to accomodate.

Well you just answered one of my long standing curiosities which has always been with the two cats free roaming the property do either of them ever get stuck in an outbuilding overnight. 😂 I agree with you it would never be a big deal because all of your structures are lovely and I’d pick any one of them to get stuck in for a night. Just have been curious if you have that happen regularly since they seem to like to travel into wherever the action is going on (aka wherever Laura is)

I love the conversation and respect between you and Aaron! I worked closely with both of my husbands and it was a blessing. Laura, thanks for giving me the courage to rip out and cut back plants. Later this fall I’m pulling out big boxwoods, removing a dying tree, cutting a massive leatherleaf viburnum in half, transplanting some grasses and trimming some bushes. You’ve given me a lot of inspiration for new plants to add too. Thanks for all you do!

Annexed into the city? Taxes may go up, but your "WATER BILL" would be astronomical.

Aaron you crack me UP!! "HI part 35 of the brick walkway!" but its also TRUE! making content as a living is a job, you need to know what tasks to do yourself and film them and what to outsource. Focus on the tasks that you know and are "nice" (ok digging in 110F is not nice to do ) to do and see and also gives value to your viewers is your bread and butter, not 35 episodes of the same brick walkway! I love to see how you actually have mastered this fine line of what to do yourself and what to outsource! That is what keeps me coming back every time. TO the costs loved to see some actual numbers what it cost to run the lavish garden you have. Maybe during winter you have time to do something like that?

I agree with you Laura on mums, I have one pot that I will put the commercially grown ones in, but you should try Mammoth Daisy mums in your gardens, I live in MN zone 4b, I give them very little care, and they come back every year and are spectacular in the Fall. They grow slowly over the summer providing green ground cover until September when they start blooming, and keep going until a hard freeze, you can also trim them back to keep them shorter.

hi there, I also live in MN , where can I get those mammoth daisy plants around here? I love those pink and purple perennial mums so much, the only color you can get during fall for sure

@@olgak506Hello, they were ordered online by my neighbor, who has moved since, but she gave some to me. You can look up Mammoth daisy mums and Burpee comes up. I have the coral, red, and yellow. The yellow are my favorite, they have such unusual pedals.

Loved this recap. I really enjoy when the two of you just get to chatting away about subjects. I’ve purchased a bunch of perennials to plant this fall at my new house, which technically we haven’t closed on & im nervous for the first time about being able to get my hands on that property in time to get all the planting done before the real cold hits here in Mi - because there are no established flower beds.. I am hoping to do the no dig method, but I keep picturing Laura planting her first plants in their no dig area and I imagine having chunks of cardboard all over the place! lol 😆 wish me luck y’all!! Thank you for the inspiration Laura! 😊♥️

The cardboard really should have been saturated before the mulch went on, to speed up the decomposition, helping you to get in there and dig

If this were my project, and I was running out of time, I'd put down the cardboard and mark out the beds and do your soil/compost/leaf mulch in the fall. I'd find a corner that's sheltered out of the wind and maybe where there's some reflective heat and hill all the plants in together to winter them over. Then plant in the spring after the ground thaws. That will give time for the cardboard to break down a little so whatever cardboard pieces you dig can just be put right back in the planting hole. Also leaving the whole winter to plan your planting.

The lighting is easily something you could do. I promise. I did it and I’m an old lady. I was younger at the time but it was surprisingly easy. You have the tools to support the project too. Go pick out your lights and plan for it during the winter. You’ll be so happy you did.

When I can’t find a plant at the garden centers, I’ve ordered from Proven Winners direct and it’s been awesome. Really healthy plants packaged well and shipped quickly.
