Creating Colorful Containers for Early Spring

[@cmsbeth]

Wow! Your channel is the best on KZbin. I hope your followers understand the amount of time you put into each video. The organization it takes to refer back to a previous video and provide a clip or a link is a value added effort. Also, other channels neglect the links to the proven winner site for a detailed review of the plants. You guys are professionals! Love it!

[@MarianneRuffhaven]

I am wondering if you realize this is the Proven Winners Channel ? This is not Laura's channel.

[@patsavinda1703]

As always thanks for the videos and teaching! I have officially ☺️ become a gardener from watching you over the past few years and even though I’m on a lower scale (for now) I have had compliments from neighbors❤️ I have to tell you when you were talking about the airplanes sometime fly over your house brought back a flood of memories from my grandparents house. The main airport was close and the large commercial airliners were always flying over! We would run outside and stand watching them✈️

The first time I heard of Heuchera was from your video. I fell in love with them ever since. Thank you for all that you do.

[@katiekane5247]

Well, again I've been ahead of the trend! We've been renting for over 10 years, until this year. I grouped all my pots, from 20 gallon down, holding my perennials & mixed in with pots I could put annuals in. There's all manner of interesting risers & objects d'art that can be mixed in! Only have 5, well maybe 7, monster size containers to get planted, hey I'm old 😆, I'm working on it!

[@carolynmangipudi9898]

So nice to see lawn, green landscape and beautiful blooms. I am in Traverse City, Michigan and we just had several inches of snow with more to come this weekend. Upcoming week has a very cold low single temps forecasted as lows & teens at highs. So nice to see a little bit of Spring..Thanks Laura

[@wendyburston3132]

I can't believe you packed so many flowers into the second pot. Guess it's all in the choice of plants, and of course knowing how long they will be in there. I overplanted an oblong planter with the wrong choices and the middle plant smothered the others. I have so much to learn! Teach on! Love your channel.... Zone 5 Ontario Canada.

[@cathyhermanson10]

Oh, I am so excited to get into my garden this year. We are over 4,000 ft, so we are told not to plant anything before Mother's Day. It has snowed here a couple of times in late April and the temperatures were low. I tried it a couple of times and the plants did die. The third year we were dragging them into the house. My husband asked me to wait, so I have. I check that calendar for weather the first week or two in May!!!

Wow, you really don't get winter down there. I won't be seeing any pansies for months. -20Celsious/-4Farhenheit and snowing. It's suppose to go down to -35Celsious/-31Ferhenheit on Sunday night. This when I hibernate and watch gardening videos. I started 72 perennial seed cells yesterday, for things that take a long time to germinate. Next month I'll start annuals, and then in April I'll start vegetables. Last year I was way too ahead of myself on the vegetables, and had zucchini and pumpkins flowering allover my kitchen, and it was still way too cold to plant them outside. But once they were in the garden they all produced very well by summer. Tuff plants.

[@judymckerrow6720]

With the snow storm that decided to make our lives difficult, and seeing you out planting gorgeous containers it makes it feel like it’s going to be a VERY long time before I’m able to get outside to get my hands dirty. 💚🙃 I don’t know how everyone else “ sees” so much, the tool shed still there, the fact that your wearing your vans again, ect. I’m so absorbed in what your saying and doing I don’t notice anything else. I had to watch the video over just to look at the other things. In no way am I criticizing anyone, I guess I just really get into what your doing and saying. Thanks Laura & Aaron for another great video and a glimpse of what spring might look like if and when it decides to arrive. P.S. I naively thought that maybe we were going to be getting an early spring because it has been so mild here in SW Michigan, but oh boy was I wrong. The lake hasn’t frozen over and now we’re getting the frigid wind blowing over the open water and it’s a mess. But spring will eventually get here, I can’t wait, so for now I have to live vicariously through you. Love you guys!💚🙃
