Benjamin playing in the blown leaves is exactly what I needed to see to start my day feeling happy and grateful. What a joyful young man you have!

[@NoraBoney]

Laura it was satisfying to watch the clean out. Our little village uses our horse trough like you used the fountain. At Christmas it becomes a beautiful center piece with a Christmas tree inside. Just a wire framed tree not a live one . Happy gardening

[@lindahopps739]

Kids, leaves and pumpkin carving, that’s the definition of fall.

[@FrancineTroyer]

So nice to 'see' the fountain/planter again! Yay!

[@laurakay777]

I love watching the clean-up as much as I love watching the planting. ❤ Both are super satisfying 🌸🌼🍃🍂🍁

[@hintex487]

😍😍

[@pennywalker8910]

Kids can make a game and fun out of anything I miss that carefree life they brought joy to me this morning.❤

[@laurieanne9712]

Love to see children running!!!😀

[@LindaKing-jr4fz]

Always a sense of satisfaction when one seasons planting is removed to get ready for the next. Only children would have fun having leaves blowing on them!!

[@CindDJo]

Laura, I really appreciate you showing the "other side" of gardening. The clean up is not the most glamorous part but it is equally as important as the planting projects.

[@theglamgram]

That was so satisfying to watch! Can’t wait to see the boxwoods being planted where the lindens are! ❤

[@camicri4263]

Me too

[@DarrinsDaffs]

The repurposed fountain/planter really did become a summer ‘Cousin It’ 😉 I love the shape of this container and would love to see airier plantings next year.

[@cassie5040]

Next time put those leaves in your chicken run. The girls will have a blast digging through them and they will turn them into beautiful compost for you to use come spring.

[@tamasrobby6872]

You're an inspiration, Laura.

[@claracorimao1024]

A blessed evening to all!

[@mollypitcher9380]

Oh! To you too!🌸

[@melindaowens1144]

So nice to see the freeze damaged plants cleaned up and the leaves gathered with the blower and taken away. I am the same way as I have to write things down - making a mental note gets lost in the shuffle of day to day activities!

[@gardeningjunkie2267]

The leaves protect your plants from the cold and will mostly disintegrate and feed the soil by spring. Anything left in spring can be easily cleaned up then.

[@Gardenmimi1950]

Kids laughing and playing in the leaves a wonderful way to start my day ❤️

[@julipolito7761]

I love it when everyone “helps”

[@sofy38455]

Saya baru menemukan saluran ini.. terimakasih sangat bagus untuk yg mau membuat taman sendiri ❤

[@carolmartin8042]

So satisfying, sitting here drinking my coffee and watching you clean your flowerbeds 😂 Y’all have a blessed day !! Texas 🇨🇱

[@RTCPhotoWork]

Btw, that's the Chile flag not the Texas flag. In the Texas flag, the blue goes all the way down.

[@roselandmcguire9925]

A garden is like a child, it needs constant attention!

[@bumblebee2798]

I think I have figured it out. We just need Laura’s background music playing when we are cleaning out our flower beds!!!

[@marilyncanaday4862]

I don’t know who chooses the music, but I really appreciate it. I especially loved the music that was playing when you were up front cleaning out the beds by the pots that were still pretty. I always enjoy your videos!❤

[@johdonnaharris2637]

I totally agree! The music was so beautiful! Good job to whom ever chose it. 👏👏

[@cindylebeau7548]

Fill that giant fountain with evergreen boughs! That would be awesome for the holidays and winter

[@kandyharris2195]

I thought the same thing ❤

[@AprilRaine60]

I loved the drone shots of the newly planted trees. Wow only 13 comments!

[@LindaKrippel]

I saw 684 comments! Maybe people commented after doing their fall work...lol

[@lynndavis9432]

I like to clean in the fall...less things for the leaves from 7 mature maple trees to catch on. I also love the smoothness of the snow in the winter.

[@GardeningJoy]

It was so satisfying to watch you clean up the garden. It gives me motivation to clean my own. I shall miss the fountain display but look forward to next spring’s creation.

[@AdinaShoshanaSturman-os6tk]

So nice when plants leave the planters revealed!

[@meemawstexasgarden]

I love the look of the formal evergreen foundation plantings for winter after the annuals are cleared and perennials cut back. Great simplicity!

[@LindaKrippel]

I agree, especially in the areas visible from the house during winter.

[@Cookontherun7391]

Looking out my window while sipping hot coffee and the grass is white with frost. I’m also looking at a hanging basket that is so beautiful I can’t bring myself to clean it out yet. ❤️🇨🇦

[@kathierogers3208]

We’ve been cleaning out our beds too, and it is a wonderful feeling.

[@robertpina99]

I love this process where you prepare the way for new beginnings.

[@rickyt3961]

Thanks Laura! 👩🏻 🌱✂️

[@garysimon8359]

Hey Laura and all, I’ve been overwintering “baby wing” white begonias under lights, on my wire shelf rack, indoors for 5 winters now. I cut them down to a couple of inches (there’s always a bunch of new foliage forming at the base), dig them out, trim the roots and put them back into 4” pots. I wonder if the surefire begonias would do the same? Any thoughts on a segment highlighting overwintering a selection of annuals?(most are really tender perennials) I display a few of the begonias for the holidays, the white blooms and fresh foliage really looks perfect for Christmas! The hard work and creative energy that Laura, Aaron, Paul, Bethany, all the behind the scenes folks put into the videos is truly is sparking a bit of joy in so many souls each day! Thank you so much for making us feel at home in your garden!

[@ritasicari7518]

I've never tried with the surefires, but, in my experience, most begonias overwinter beautifully.

[@triciaclement68]

I overwintered one Surefire rose begonia last year. It was straggly and weak (only got light from a window) through the winter, but once it got back outside in the spring it took off and grew into a spectacular showpiece. I'll be bringing it in again this year for sure!

[@bettyharvath5217]

Good morning from Delaware Garden Answer friends.

[@sallycapotosto6927]

Good choice on the music Tyler.

[@RuubinSelena]

The Maximilian Sunflowers would look gorgeous in the "Dirt Lands"! You could probably divide it in to 10+ plants..

[@precioushomes541]

Short but satisfying, and I know it was short for me but a lot of work for you guys, loved seeing the kid a play in the leaves...

[@Chefabs911]

Loved watching the kids in the blowing leaves. We used to do that with our son, and now at 34 he is a crew Chief at a landscaping company

[@shannon5203]

Seeing Benjamin playing in the leaves was so adorable!! Thanks for sharing!! 🥰

[@jamiehill3220]

I’m definitely on the Fall cleanup team! I used to wait until spring until I saw Laura clean up in Fall. I love being able to decorate for Fall & Christmas and not have dead plants in my garden. Also, it renews me in the Spring to start with a clean slate. ❤

[@camicri4263]

The kids had a blast being blown with the leaves, that's how it should be, having fun in little things. They do have a beautiful childhood!❤🥰😍💨🍁🍂🍂🍂🍂🍃🍃 It looks amazing all cleaned up 😍 Blessings 🙏🏻💞

[@rebeccahinojosa4991]

Looks so much better your so good on how to do all things in the garden world may God keep giving you so much ideas and strength what a beautiful life🥂🎊🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

[@annemariedelaney5295]

The family that plants together, work and plays together with lots of fun 🍂🍂🍁🍁🍁 exciting to see the kids having so much fun with the leaves 🍃 brings back my childhood memories. Like you Laura, I have to make lists ✔✅ enjoy the 🎃 pumpkin carving.

[@kaysauls9087]

Love the view of the Hartley through the canopy of trees at 12:55 !

[@jess7567]

This is the video I needed to motivate me to get my beds ready for winter!!

[@maureenodendahl5057]

Absolutely Looks Fantastic!! Getting excited about your Christmas lights being put Up!! Benjamin and Samantha are a Joy to watch enjoying being outside with their Mom and Dad!!

[@judymckerrow6720]

I saw the kids having fun in the piles of leaves on Instagram. ❤️🎃🍁💚🙃

[@77sun222]

Hi Laura and Aaron So beautiful watching you chase the children with the leaf blower😍💯👏

[@KathleenAhart]

Do you ever blow all those leaves into a big pile and let the kiddos do a run and jump into it? It was one of our favorite thing to do in the Fall growing up. 🍁🍂🍁🍂

[@Thewildmanwoods]

You’d have the best leaf mulch ever with all those trees… I just pile mine up and a year later it’s full of worms and a dark beautiful rich mulch…❤❤❤

[@zackarybever9769]

So satisfying!! ❤ Have you guys given any more thought to composting? All those leaves and fresh branches would make perfect material! If you already compost would love a look at it!

[@BottlegardenUK]

When you pull those plants and you realise how much growth a single one has produced in a season, it’s a miracle! Is there an annual that will continue through the colder weather that you never pull in autumn/fall?

[@Charlie8888]

Yes! A yew-nified look!

[@chrisrfan]

So satisfying to get the garden cleaned up for winter!

[@AndreaBenson-g5y]

Sad and good all at the same time 🎉❤😊

[@wandabrown508]

Satisfying work accomplished. So fun to see the kids helping pick up the leaves, Samantha with her giant rake, ha.

[@lisahowell3468]

So satisfying to see beds tidied all up! Would love to see the kids Halloween outfits this year!!!🎃🎃🎃

[@joyceukwigan4422]

Im with Laura, somethings I clear autumn, some spring. Mostly depends if Im looking at it a lot and it gets on my nerves. 😃

[@-angie.]

Oh my goodness...the areas you cleaned up looks AMAZING! Lol, instant gratification! 🫶

[@lynkarpick8037]

Loved the kids playing in the leaves as you blew them!! Areas that you pulled spent plants from look great! There is satisfaction in doing that as we move to another season!❤❤❤

[@michelesimpson2237]

Gonna be 91 degrees in Austin today. So so ready for some cooler weather and rain it’s been a very long time since we had rain. Very satisfying to see the clean up Laura.

[@JanEmily-x4w]

Some of my FAVORITE videos ... the clean up video!!

[@janeclancey8044]

I agree that some cleanup in fall is more satisfying and easier to remove leaf drop out of the flowerbeds in fall also.

[@annjohns9939]

Garden Answer Editor, don't work so hard editing the videos down. I could watch Laura and family all day!!!

[@firedude5135]

Unfortunately I think it’s an algorithm thing. I think videos that are around 20 minutes get pushed up the list and prioritized. When a channel gets this big it’s only a matter of time before it becomes a money thing.

[@relaxingnatures81]

Good job Laura...love to see you kids enjoying while mommy and daddy working❤❤❤

[@kimberlyheibel8759]

That container was so impressive. The plants did so great there.

[@kathy8832]

Good morning! Love Fall cleanup. Always makes garden beds look so clean & neat.

[@lindathompson8100]

Best vidoe, love the cleaned out places, looks so satisfying !!! Love seeing the kids out playing.

[@PatienceBurgoyne]

Thanks for the pumpkin soup recipe! I made it this evening and topped it with roasted rosemary pumpkin seeds- it was delicious.

[@JensGardenTime]

We've had three mornings of 25 to 27 °! Still so much holding strong😊

[@norlealagunsay2979]

Can't stop smiling watching Benjamin and Samantha enjoying leaves while blown away ❤😍😘 Can't

[@sherreywurz731]

I always enjoyed fall clean up...very relaxing and everything clean and ready for next spring planting

[@saraw8503]

I like seeing Aaron doing grunt work. I think of him more as the detail planner and heavy equipment operator.

[@Argo53]

I was under the impression that it was better for overall soil health to remove annuals by cutting cut back at soil level, rather than taking/digging their roots. I've noticed that you prefer the dig-out everything method, including roots and large clumps of soil. Is that just your preference or is there actually no benefit to leaving the underground vegetation to naturally disintegrate?

[@GardenKath]

It is. Every time you disturb the soil you damage the soil microbiome. That’s why no-dig gardening has become more popular. Soil health is everything.

[@janetklein9697]

I love cleaning up in the fall. I love the tidy look, and when spring comes I’m itching to plant not clean.

[@barbararobinson-cs3ym]

The clean up areas look wonderful. Yes, the freeze has hit us here too.

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

I love cleaning videos 🥰

[@michaliareeton3247]

Just love clean up videos l been doing clean up in my garden today .and. Like you Laura just looks so much better and just to lovely to see Benjamin and Samantha having fun in the leaves

[@marciabyrd7183]

Benjamin, playing in the blowing leaves looks like more fun than jumping in them...ya stay dry anyway!😊

[@KokoraLife]

Thanks for showing your process!

[@leesaaugustine1444]

Good Morning! 🎃 I am going to start my clean-up! It always satisfying to get everything cleaned up & ready for winter! The kids are having fun in the leaves! 🍂🥀🍁🧹

[@sunrisekreations8205]

So satisfying to get things tided up!!! This video gave me the feeling I always get every spring and fall, the old and the new. Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: 2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

[@GardeningSpirit]

12:38 what a spectacular view!! 😍🍂🍁

[@RLSCS]

This season was my favourite for the Persephone garden. The all Surefire White begonias in that space looked classic.

[@MegLikesToGarden]

Love flowerbed cleanup videos!

[@zaria5785]

Watching you clean out all of your garden beds has allowed me to make a list of my own “clean out tasks” in my garden. My compost bins need some attention as do all of the cleaned out planters, planting the succulent garden (zone 10a), transplanting the geraniums into new planters and then I can rest with a pumpkin spice latte.

[@colleensnider8874]

Winter evergreens would look so beautiful in the fountain base. Please!!!😁

[@1062ish]

Family effort,love it❤ The persephone area would be amazing with boxwoods. Stunning property 🚜🌲🌳🐝🍁

[@judyklein3221]

You must feel such accomplishment when you're finished with a cleaning like that. It looks so nice and neat.

[@andrewmichels7804]

I used a cracked birdbath full of flowers as well in the shade. Will leave it there till it falls apart as well.

[@SAA-y1h2v]

It looks so clean and need and beautiful very good job you always do👍👍👍

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

Looking so good to clear out annuals, but the color you still have with some of them it is great seeing the pretty color. Wonderful seeing your beautiful garden again, have a beautiful and blessed day, sending love and hugs, bye! 🥰😍🙏🙏👍🌸💮🌺🍁🍂💜💜💜💜💜

[@alanFconrad]

There's something to be said for "Neatness!',,,,,,,Very nice :)

[@amydeeds6248]

I love seeing Samantha playing in her Mary Jane shoes-I remember wearing them to church every Sunday. Do the annuals in the ground get fertilized every week also? 😊

[@barbarahiesel1015]

Dear Laura, could you do a video on growing flowers from seed for beginners? I’m hoping to get a grow light for Christmas. 🌷

[@yvencia1150]

Good morning ☕️ 😊

[@anneandrews7053]

Hey Laura, just wondering what happened to the white, rusty arbor/gate that your mom wanted?

[@drk218]

Oh wow, that planter does look awesome now. I never cared for how huge everything got and just took over. Wasn't very pretty imo, but it looks awesome now. 😊❤

[@LindaKrippel]

It is such a pleasing site to clean up the weary plants in the fall. Gives your eyes a rest. I also have left a few things, don't have the heart to pull them out when they look so pretty yet. We have had super wind the past couple days, so now leaf cleanup has begun. My least favorite part of fall. Have a great time carving pumpkins tonite, hope we see the results.......

[@garykirk9888]

Looking much better!
