I know you've done tours of your parents' garden, but I would love to see a small tour (with your mother and you) talking about some of her and your favorite places/plants or memories of planting and gardening. I particularly love her patio area! I always want to look around there more when you're filming there. So much eye candy and peacefulness! Even just some of ya'll sitting and talking about gardening, maybe with little Benjamin puttering about with his trucks. It's all such an inspiration to us. Thank you for all you do!

[@kellymorgan8624]

Am I the only one that hits the like button before I watch? I love every video so much I want to make sure I don't forget 😄

[@crossstx4593]

I do that too. I don't understand how people can give it a thumbs down.

[@marilynruggeberg]

I do too. Helps me keep track of the ones I have seen. Don't want to miss any. 🥰

[@danielbolf7896]

Me too,lol..

[@jeans3190]

I do the same.

[@charlenevierthaler5868]

[@susankurth1699]

What a blessing to come home to several DONE projects! Thank you sweetheart 🥰

[@pinkfrangipani5131]

You're so sweet and that's why she loves to do things for you. Your unconditional motherly love is so prevalent in Laura's videos. I also love your back deck and all the beautiful pots on the columns. As a mum, I learn so much from you. Watching from Sydney, Australia xoxo.

[@ingesexton811]

This is her mom!!!!?? We love your daughter and your garden!!

[@pinkfrangipani5131]

[@theheritagehousesc]

I wish my kids would do something like that for me! You are blessed!

[@arlenaroche4960]

My 4 yr old daughter loves watching your videos with me. Today she told me she wants to go to your house to see your gardens. I love that she is developing a love for gardens like me.

[@themamabearlife3339]

Looking at your parents property, we can see why you love the things you love...it's all things you grew up with. We are all just a product of our parents, aren't we.....

[@robertadoughty1392]

Am I the only one that was watching Laura in the Potting Shed and wondering if we would see Peter Rabbit! Her mom's Potting Shed reminds me of the one for Mr. McGregor's Garden! What a magical few minutes.

[@SteveL2012]

Your parents’s garden is breathtaking-so verdant. Is your Mother the master planner, your father, or both? The subtly of all the greens makes it a garden of Eden.

[@sallyhenry1716]

Awww you looked so peaceful when you were watching the chickens eating😌 so sweet!

[@fiercegirldesign1]

Hey Laura! I love how you filmed this, naturally responding to things as you came upon them (raspberries..."don't mind if I do." :) ). It made it feel like we were all right there with you. Always love seeing your parents' garden. Thanks to you and them for sharing. Everything looks beautiful. It's a great source of inspiration (and so is your garden).

[@carlfernandes237]

Jill J I loved the part when she was like ‘YUM’ lol

[@babe9293]

I just love it when you visit your parents’ garden-such a beautiful and serene place. I think hilly gardens give you the opportunity to be more creative. Your gardens are beautiful also. I’ll bet your mom is so proud of all that you have accomplished and welcomes the help. I can tell how close your family is just from your videos-my family is the same-there’s nothing like it! God bless you Laura; you’re a beautiful daughter and have a beautiful soul.

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

We just started breaking in the earth at our new 81 year old cottage. It’s such a thrill to walk around and look at previous foliage that’s been planted. It’s like a meet and greet!😊 Your Mother’s Home is relaxing and beautiful on so many levels!! Thank you for sharing!🌷

[@karysmuh]

Badum tsss (So many levels, terraced garden... I'll see myself out)

[@meganrobinson2190]

When you were a kid did you play hide and seek in the garden? Looks like that garden has some awesome hiding spots haha

[@nindyhunt]

Good morning Laura!!! I love going on these outings with you. I love the style of your videos. P.s. I ordered the flamingos pineapple pink mums from proven winners and I got so excited to see your beautiful face in the proven winners catalog!!!! I've been shoeing all my friends and family who my Laura is!!! I'm so proud of you and it's an honor to be your follower.

[@derrongoodengardenandlifes8655]

I love when you do tours or walk about in your parents garden. I love working in my mom’s garden, it always brings back so many great childhood memories.

[@LB-vl3qn]

It's always a treat to get to see your parents' garden, especially at the height of summer. It all looks so inviting. I'm not sure I could have resisted jumping in the pool. Might have had to borrow one of mom's swimsuits. Love seeing their kitties, too. I could hear the second one purring as you loved on her. Every garden needs a kitty, IMO. Thanks for taking us along. ~ Lisa

[@pamketron]

Everything looks so pretty. I would have had to get in the glorious pool for an hour or so. I couldn’t have resisted. The chickens and kitties are so cute and adorable. Thanks for taking us along. ☀️🏖

[@ivytippit6181]

So nice that you do that for your mom. My mother passed away in my early twenties and I get great joy of planting plants that she had inher garden, such as Swedish Ivy. Every time I see Swedish Ivy, I think of her.💔

[@saschacat]

Love your parents' garden and you are such a good daughter.

[@brendarummell6152]

Laura you amaze me that you go and help in your parents garden. You are like the Energizer bunny when the video goes in fast time while you’re working on the corn stalks. To think of all you are doing at your house along with Benjamin and not to mention your pregnant. You are one special lady!

[@karenvaughn6824]

Thank you for taking us along on your visit. You truly have a knack for sharing - I sit and enjoy my coffee and listen as if you’re only talking to me. I am envious of the fullness and maturity of your parents garden. So beautiful. Happy Friday eve everyone! Make it a great day. 🌽🥬💦🌸

[@Edu_Kate]

As a younger person, I always enjoyed cleaning my grandparents' home more than my own. It's always enjoyable watching someone else do gardening chores, helps me procrastinate from doing my own. And your parents' place is always a treat to see.

[@donnasecour8511]

Good morning Laura, what a wonderful video of checking on your parents garden! I loved when you were watching the girls (as you called them) eat the swiss chard, you could just see your contentment for what you do! Thank you for sharing your day to day with us!

[@joannschultz3679]

Laura you are such a breath of fresh air., your sweet calm voice and beautiful smile is a blessing to all who hear and see you. You stated you didn’t do much at your mom and dads but as a lady almost eighty, I can tell you they will be grateful to have one less thing to do when they return. Hugs from Northern California.

[@gardenfairy9792]

You are such a sweet person Laura. I know your folks really appreciate you watching over their place. Their garden is amazing!

[@pranitalakeram9443]

Laura pregnant or not you and your family is a breath of fresh air any time of the day. Your parents oasis looks like an English manor. Stay safe ❤

[@graffic13]

I would like to see you give Jack Barnwell a tour of you moms garden!

[@marilynruggeberg]

Or of Your Garden 🥰🥰🥰

[@jaimecarver2449]

I hope my daughter grows up to have such an appreciation for nature like you do. I love 'spending time' with my plants LoL and I frequently invite her to help so she can try to find her own love for them.❤️🤍💙💛

[@delphinenyirahabimanam.d.8510]

Laura, I love your parent's garden, and always enjoy the tours of it! ❤ And thinking that you learned everything there, awesome! And again the relationship between you and your mum makes me wanna cry!❤

[@berniecelee5062]

Laura ... you amaze me with every video ! You’re in second trimester and your energy level is just phenomenal!! The bending, lifting, cleaning ...wow girl, and you ain’t in your 20’s !! Oh, I miss my youth and energy level 😢😢 A farmer and dedicated gardener don’t rest. It must feel so good at the end of every day to feel so productive and have none of the silly 🙃 office politics that just ⚡️ zaps our energy and rob us of our joy. I find the joy of growing small plants and watch them grow in 2-3 years. I haven’t bought big plants in years cause the joy is taking care of them from their small form. Same with planting annuals and perennials. I so enjoy watching your garden and your mom’s garden grow . Just celestial!! 😇😇😇 . Praying that you have a healthy happy baby girl 💕. One like you ! Give my best wishes to your sister on her 🎂 birthday! 🎉🍨🍸🍦

[@cathybranly1839]

Such a lovely garden. It is nice to see the difference between your garden and your parent's garden. I really like all the evergreens and all the concrete pots, statues and fountains.

[@maryglidden2943]

Every time I see your parents gardens I think " I can see how Laura got to where she is today in her gardens with such a beautiful example set! So very sweet of you to do some things for your parents while they are gone. So many families these days are so different.

[@laurelking9640]

What a beautiful garden!! I always enjoy when we get to see your Parents garden. The layers of colors and textures are beautiful!!😀

[@mytimelesshome]

Love your parents garden!🌱💕🌱💕🌱

[@pollytiks3885]

There is something so relaxing about watching the chickens 🐓

[@naegwut]

What I love about gardening, is there's always something to do.

[@jenniemigz9772]

Gift idea for Mom: a Kangaroo popup bag. Lovely video as always. Your mother’s home is beautiful and cozy and lush all at once.

[@valeriehowden471]

Everyone needs a housesitter like Laura!

[@katiekane5247]

I had a business doing this, hard to get paid enough to do the job right. Folks think you should just enjoy caring for their animals & watering their plants. I do miss my petsitting animal friends though!

[@catherinemiller9798]

Dear Laura, YES!!! Potting shed is on my wish list. I love cleaning up and trimming as much as planting. You are such a good daughter .Second Friday of the month is "yard debris day". My small town picks up yard debris once a month April-Oct. chops it up into mulch. Offers it for free down by the municipal buildings. I have a medium size yard so it is a BIG help. Gotta go and start my morning cleanup. Cathy M/PA

[@LeleLineca]

It was pure magical to see you relax and just enoy. The moment where you were just watching the chickens. Magical!

[@beverlyasleson3321]

It’s so nice to see your parents pretty yard, you did a good job cleaning up, thanks for taking us along. 👍❤️

Aww, your parent’s garden is just lovely with the different levels and that swimming pool?!?! 😱....love it! Don’t get me wrong I adore your’s too! 😂😂. You’ve so helped me get back into my gardening after losing my gardening mojo for a few years - thank you! Hugs from the U.K. 🇬🇧💚🧡💚🧡

[@dsandy131]

Their garden is so serene and beautiful.

[@nancydeis7121]

What a BEAUTIFUL place you had to grow up in. Lots of hard work and commitment which molded you all into the hardworking caring lovely people you are. I love all the different levels and hiding spots in your parents garden. I would LOVE to sit on that bench and watch the water. I would probably lay down and have a nap.

[@dorenenagy564]

I'm sure your parents enjoyed coming home to a well-groomed garden. You are so sweet. I know they help you out a lot when you are gone on your trips. I think in other peoples garden you can stop and smell the roses more.

[@wendychetherington9809]

I really enjoyed you being at your parents and you looked SO at peace just sitting and watching the chickens. God bless you. Wendy (North Wales, UK)

[@jodie2773]

Your parents' garden is so comfy and beautiful! I can feel what you mean (even through the laptop screen!) when you say that this garden feels so cosy. It's true! Love your videos Laura, you're so inspiring and I love being able to dream about gardens in my future through looking at your videos 😊 I'm so happy I found your channel a few months ago now 💛💛💛

[@feliciacardone8900]

This was a treat. You are an amazing Mom, wife, gardener and daughter; you truly are. Thank you for sharing. I haven't seen Benjamin in a while- he's missed ❣

[@karenmorse7031]

It’s so nice to watch you garden while I’m having coffee!!! Lol!! It’s been in the high 90’s and incredibly humid for WEEKS here in Va, with either absolutely no rain or floods-no in between. So I’ve kinda lost my motivation to maintain my gardens-it’s too HOT!!!! 😂

[@micaelaharris859]

Really enjoy seeing the difference between your garden and your parents. They both have their beauty to them and I like when you go back and forth during the seasons just to see them evolve differently.

[@claudettewashington9289]

Laura! When you walked away from that fountain that you though was not on, i smile to myself and said she gonna check! Love watching you!!

[@Klmrc]

You are an amazing daughter. How sweet of you to do all that for them. Well raised child you are by your equally amazing and lovely parents

[@marystewart5555]

You’re a great daughter. I know your folks must be proud.

[@caromartinez9268]

Hey Laura! My garden has changed so much ever since i started watching your videos and because of my garden, my neighbors gardens have changed as well. They ask me about what im planting, how to care for it and all that good stuff. 😊 they ask, how do you know so much? I say it’s because of Laura!! I explained who you were. Point is you inspired me, and at the same time my elderly neighbors too. Thank you. 😊

[@kyndra3228]

OMG I LOVE the sound and look of the rusty doors going into the chickens!!!!!!

Your parents garden is just amazing. No wonder you love gardens so much. Such a beautiful place to grow up.. 🌺🌺🌺

Hi Laura! It's always a pleasure seeing your parents place! It's such a huge contrast from your place, but I love them both! Every is looking so good. It's nice that you still love going there and helping out.The topiaries turned out really nice. If I tried something like that, it would be like using the #1 on the clippers when I cut my husbands hair, there wouldn't be much left! LOL! That pool looked so inviting! Thank you so much for taking us along with you! Also, it was fun seeing their kitty.

[@jeans3190]

I enjoy the videos. The cats are always a special treat.

[@paulag.panzermd8239]

I soooo appreciate the way you and your family help each other. The views in your parents’ garden are STUNNING

[@lisawalters5482]

You are so sweet to do these things for your parents. Both my kids have recently moved their families in 2 different directions and I guess I miss having them here so bad. When we go away for the weekend or a couple days it was always wonderful to have one of them check on things and water for us. Now we manage those tasks differently. Their garden is so beautiful. I used to hate shade in my gardens, but the older I get, the more I love it. This humid Texas heat is terrible. Take care and God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

[@deannededemarievogel-hampt9954]

OMG 😲 YOUR PARENTS GARDENS ARE SO GORGEOUS AND INVITING!!! I can see why you love it so much. Seriously, how did you resist jumping in the pool? You are so awesome! I wish I had a Laura near by 🥰🥰🥰 We are in a heatwave this week, 102-108, YUCK !!! Maybe 110!!! 🥵🥵🥵🌡🌡🌞🌞🔥🔥 Stay cool and hydrated 😎

[@FlyingKitten1]

This was a very sweet video. I loved how you walked around and talked about your memories. Most of all, when you said, "OH Crap" I do have to fill the fountain. So excited for you and your growing family. Don't feel bad if you need to take some breaks, you earned it, and it's important.

I'll be growing corn next year just for he decorating.

[@gardener5158]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@karinchristensen220]

I'm growing some ornamental corn called Pink Zebra that I've never grown before. The leaves are pink and green stripes. The tassels are just beginning to form and they are a burgundy color. It might be interesting for saving the dry stalks.

[@Edu_Kate]

I'm afraid Halloween will be cancelled this year and that makes me sad. (It's my Christmas.)

[@terricamp2437]

I am thinking the same. I never have because I believe the raccoons will enjoy the corn and not us but at least it wouldn’t be a total loss.

[@justjules327]

Kate Hillenbrand me too. I love both holidays, but I LOVE Halloween because it is the beginning of the festivities. I usually start planning my halloween costumes in January. This year has been a real rough one for planning.

Great video, it doesn't feel like work in someone else's yard does it. Kind of like a gift. 😍

Love your parent's garden! The Heliopsis looks Tuscan Sun which is the shorter variety of Loraine Sunshine. Both plants were patented by a business named Hanson's Garden Village in Rhinelander, WI, a town in northern Wisconsin near where I live. It was found growing in an employee's garden & named after Loraine.

[@cindym6065]

Hi Laura. There are areas in your garden that remind me of your parents' garden. The area around your stone fireplace and your new garden with the gravel circle are elegant and shady like their garden. If you had a stone planting wall to separate that area from the driveway, I'd think I was in your parents' garden. Anyway, thanks for the relaxing tour to start my day!

[@dianem7771]
