All the Fall Colors in One Container! 🍁🧡🍂// Garden Answer

[@CYRiPKK1]

Most of us don't have a gardening budget of a KZbin gardening channel, but that never bothered me. Gardening can be just as fun with a tiny budget and if not more rewarding. When Laura does a container arrangement that I really want to copy, I take notes of which plant I am able to start from seed; which I might be able to take cuttings from what's already in my garden and which one I can substitute. It sure takes longer than rushing to the store for the full grown plants but the process was every bit as enjoyable. Alyssum and ornamental cabbage are very easy to start from seed and if you save your own seeds, they are essentially everlasting. Start from seed, plant swap with a neighbor, forage seeds where it's allowed, the possibilities are endless.

[@emkn1479]

Christy Ren Also, I hit the clearance racks at Lowe’s and other stores and I can find things for $1 that might just need a little TLC to recover and shine. If you collect them all summer you should have enough by fall to make some lovely pots 🙃 I even recently found small boxwoods for $1 each!

[@CYRiPKK1]

Emily Knetzer $1 boxwood!? What a steal! Where my grandma lives, they give out annual plants used in city landscape to residents at the end of season. My grandma was able to grow a geranium from a tiny can to a massive 5ft giant that blooms year round.

[@emkn1479]

Christy Ren Awesome! Gotta be resourceful! And the boxwoods are pretty small, but still! I know how big they can be some day 👍🏻 (TBH I would NEVER have paid $15 for them.)

[@robinrummel1359]

Great idea! I started alyssum from seed this year. The ones I didn't kill are almost 2 feet in diameter now! I never thought about doing the same with the cabbage but will next year. It's been really hard to find a good variety of plants this year, even at nurseries.

[@MyDanymax]

What a beautiful comment! We need some more people like you. I feel the same, and you made my day. Shalom everyone.

The cats steal the show again! Can you post Best Of Russell and Cheddar episodes please? We LOVE the kitties!!

[@deborahm1670]

Laura, this was both inspiring by your plant choices as well as your thoughtful consideration of the variety of budgets of your followers. Thanks to you, too, Aaron, for your presence--albeit off screen. While Team LeBoutillier always has a welcome screen presence in our home, your positive approach and this colorful display really lifted our spirits today here on the west side of our beautiful state of Oregon. The fires burning in Oregon are keeping many of us in the Willamette Valley--as well as other areas--inside due to the poor air quality. Positive thoughts for all those suffering losses. Many thanks for all of the positive energy you continually share with all of us.

[@tayconrad9297]

Stay safe, thinking and praying for you all on the west coast

[@robinrummel1359]

I was just texting a friend last night who lives in that area. She sent a pic where you could see trees and said the next morning they were hidden by smoke. Please stay safe and wear the best mask you can if you go out. I read that breathing that smoke is like smoking 25 cigarettes a day!

[@JJ-fm3hr]

I used to live in Fresno and Bakersfield. The air quality due to fires was bad. Be safe. Praying for all on the West Coast!

[@GardenMinistry.]

I'm so sorry and im thinking of you guys in Oregon! I took a family trip over to Portland and the Willamette area 4 years ago and it's sooo lovely. Sending you prayers.

There is nothing more satisfying than watching one of your videos and going out to buy some plants to make something similar and actually being successful!! I tell my friends that if you planted ragweed and said “Oh look! Isn’t that pretty?” I would be on Google looking for some plants 😂 You’re an inspiration to so many!

My INSPIRATION for next week as I find ways to spark joy for others. This container is NOT too expensive if you are like me and the "thing that gives me the greatest joy" is bringing joy to others. Cheaper than a therapist. I use my old therapist $$$ to pour into the lives of others. Hope Pike Nursery in Atlanta has a similar Michael Carr Pot, and all of the plants you mentioned.

These are an inspiration, no matter how many or few plants you put in your container. The inspiration I have most received from these is to utilize perennials in containers!!! What a brilliant idea! 😊 Thank you for sharing!

I started watching your show to get ideas for planters and you never disappoint!! I may not be able to squish all the plants in my pots but I use your colours and textures as inspiration for my containers. I live in an apartment now and don't have a yard to make beautiful, so I do it with containers on my balcony. I am cleaning up my summer planters and doing things up for fall and winter. I live on Vancouver Island and I can enjoy plants through the winter and have colour too.Your property is a labour of love and we see it in every video that you do. Thanks for all the calmness you bring during this crazy time

He will do this all through your pregnancy, so don’t be surprised when you notice that he’s nearby! Just thought you would want to know! ❤️

[@user-qt6mm9gg5w]

I'm glad you got the bug for putting together containers because I love watching you plant them. I would never think of the combinations you use and they are all so beautiful when you are finished. I am still amazed at how many you are able to squeeze into a container.

[@cherylschumacher1832]

I’m loving this combo so much, guess I’m going plant shopping😜 I’ll be scratching my head “what would Laura buy” 😂

This container arrangement is so so beautiful Laura!! I don't think I've really seen cabbage used in ornamental planting the way you use it - I don't think it's a common thing for us Aussies to do. But I love how you use them in the landscape and in this container it really finishes it off beautifully. Thanks for the inspiration and all the effort you and Aaron put into these videos xxx

Best part of the video - 7:51-7:54 🤣🤣🤣 Her personality is coming out more, LOOOOOVE IT! Aaron, thank you for the closer shot this time! I can now see that Laura does not dig the well deep enough to have the container soil level with the top of the plant... it’s like just covering 3/4 of the bottom of the plant- GREAT to catch that this time!

[@copperswife1]

Until I started watching your channel, I always planted only annuals in containers. This year, though, has been so different. I now plant containers with perennials that I want for new garden areas that are just in the planning stage. The bonus is, I can invest in a one gallon size plant for the container, and by next year when the new garden area is ready, I’ll have a three gallon size plant ready to go. Bonus: I then have an empty container ready to fill with new things! Here in the valley of central California, the smoke and air quality are so bad, working the garden is really not a good idea, but a half an hour or so planting up a big container, and then placing it and hooking it up to the drip, allows me to get my hands dirty and plant some new things without being outside too long. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@denisedorsey2889]

Cheryl Linebarger I feel your pain about not being able to get outside! I'm in the hazardous smoke here in Oregon. Well, our entire state is covered now, as well as Washington and of course most of California. My focus now is just keeping perennials alive.

Have been watching you for years. You’ve inspired me & I’ve learned a lot. Thanks for all the videos. Question: When you plant perennials in a pot, you say that you’ll plant them in the garden later. However, I’ve always read that plants need a 6 weeks to root before the ground freezes, in order to survive. If you’re planting them late, how can they get the time to root? Do you give them extra protection over the winter? I’d appreciate you addressing this

[@margieb9917]

She said she could winter them over in the pot and plant them out in the spring.

[@GraceKanedesign]

Happy to see y'all have avoided the western smoke cover!! We in Seattle area are remembering blue skies wistfully.

Laura, would you consider doing a video on different root situations in newly purchased potted plants/trees? You always talk about it a bit when you plant something, but I'm never totally sure if I should tease or not tease and to what extent. I'd love some closeups and tips on different situations. Thanks!

[@carolynmangipudi9898]

I planted mums, asters and marigolds, 2 wks ago, when my husband was gifted a box of irises, from one of his HVAC customers & I HAD to buy more potting soil, which meant a trip to the garden center. Honestly I thought I was done planting...well, nope.haha I loved they actually had a new shipment of fall plants. I love the contast of purple asters with the assorted colors of mums and the yellow & red marigolds. My annuals are season end tired, so really makes me happy to have the bright cheer of the flowers back...Thank you for the video & a very pretty assortment. Laura.
