[@MsValerieDev]

How’s It Growing? I do follow you. But let me say again. Your yard is so beautiful.

[@cynthiapetrone562]

Laura, your garden is so garden tour worthy. You are such an artist of gardening!

[@HowsItGrowing]

@@MsValerieDev This is so kind, really! I thank you so much!

[@HowsItGrowing]

@@cynthiapetrone562 Hi Cynthia!! I'm so happy to see you here! You've been such a good garden friend to me! I hope you are doing very well! Thank you!

[@JesusismySavior316]

How’s It Growing? Laura I was so happy to see you on Linda’s channel, oh my gosh you have been such an inspiration to me, you have truly helped me transform my garden, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful garden with us !

[@dianamcfarland1997]

JUST BEAUTIFUL!! MY KIND OF STYLE! THANKS FOR GIVING ME SOME IDEALS!

[@jillkeim3587]

Linda and Laura, thank you for that partnership! I watch both of your channels! Laura, your garden is beautiful and I really enjoyed seeing it out up at night. I see hints of Linda Vater and Laura of Garden Answer, in with your unique style. A fabulous coming together of 3 of the best gardening minds!!!! Really nice!

[@lizeee7840]

Jill Keim yes, they are my 3 top favorite garden ladies also . Always enjoy their videos

[@HowsItGrowing]

Really happy you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!!

[@HowsItGrowing]

@@lizeee7840 I'm smiling, thank you very much!

[@sharonwebb945]

And Laura I love how you shaped the hydrangea to a beautiful tree next to the rocking chairs on the porch. I am going to do that as my hydrangeas grow. It truly is architecturally beautiful 😍

[@mkpoptic5790]

Thank you Laura for sharing your gardens with us. I too am never done designing and reimagining our cottage gardens and hardscape. I love your soft whimsical approach and combinations of containers water features edible plants and water features. I do believe you have your grandfathers natural talent for gardening. It’s in your DNA. I may have missed it but if you don’t already grow fig trees then give them a go. They are sculptural beautiful and so wonderfully Italian.

[@carrlinewhitfield5282]

I love the garden and beautiful garden decor

[@joliz1234]

Thank you Linda for sharing Laura’s garden. It is so beautiful and relaxing. Will be following her along in her garden transformation. Wouldn’t you just love spending an evening there sharing a glass of wine!

[@joywhitley3141]

It’s so charming! It looks like a storybook garden and I just love how she transformed her driveway into a courtyard with gravel. Thanks for sharing Linda!! ❤️

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you very much Joy!! 💜

[@mauraashby8831]

I sooo agree! I have been contemplating the same! Thinking of turning our garage into my husband's art studio and doing something very similar here in Detroit Zone 6A. Love what you've done! Every single bit of it! 💗🌺🌳

[@kristendonato141]

I love How's It Growing! Laura and her gardens are such a delight to follow 🌿

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you very much! 🥰

[@amberwolf1023]

Beautiful Beyond words so romantic just stunning 😍

[@roxannamorgan5107]

Thank you for featuring Laura! She had created such a beautiful English Garden space and it has been a pleasure to watch it evolve this year. 🌻🌸

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you so much my dear friend! 💜 I love seeing names I know over here. Means a lot to me!

[@TPayne-fm8ie]

Laura’s garden is beautiful. I already follow her but this tour was lovely. Her style is charming without crossing over to cutesy.

[@reneejohnson4058]

Thanks so much Linda! I am a new follower of your channel. Sooo jealous of your garden space and talent!! ☺️ truly LOVED touring Laura’s garden. Wish I could study under you two. Love everything about your’s and Laura’s gardens.!!

[@amylharter]

I love these new videos you are doing Linda. Your garden is stunning, but it's fun to see other ones you admire!

[@madeleinewinterdown3256]

Laura's house is also beautiful inside! Thank you for the Christmas tour, Laura! Your garden is magical.

[@RC-mc6rc]

This is exactly what we need! People lifting up other people! I follow how’s it growing but I didn’t follow Linda. Now I can watch your videos! The world needs more people like you ladies 💕

[@HowsItGrowing]

Isn’t she wonderful? My heart is happy. Sharing that joy and lifting others up, what it is all about! 💜

[@JesusismySavior316]

I’ve been following Laura for ever and so it was a real treat to see her and her absolutely magical garden featured on your channel Linda. Her garden is full of creativity and truly shows that no matter what size garden you have you can make it into a beautiful retreat! Love it all ❤️❤️❤️🌻🌻🌻

[@HowsItGrowing]

This is so very nice!!! Thank you so much!

[@ja-uh9gz]

What a gorgeous garden tour! She's done so much with her property, so lush and colorful. Very beautiful with it lit up at night. Laura and Linda...thank you for the tour! :)

[@sharonwebb945]

The before and after shots only 6 months in the making are incredible! What a magnificent transformation Laura! So so pretty. Love all the white timber

[@karenrice5303]

Oh how gorgeous. Daytime was beautiful but glad she filmed evening with her garden lighting. It was over the moon. Loved it. Thank you for sharing your garden.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you for watching and for making me smile today!

[@rosarybennett]

She has amazing taste. I loved how eclectic her plantings are from area to area but are still so cohesive. Also, the black ceiling on the porch? It really makes the space seem more like a room.

[@nekovero93]

One of the most unique & beautiful garden ever, had to watch 2x, I love everything about it.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Ahhhh so very nice. Thank you! 🥰

[@Cenepk101]

Loved the tour!! Seeing this garden & Linda’s makes me feel minimalist. I garden in the cottage style - with a touch of formality in the design - sometimes- I feel conspicuously cluttered with plant material. Not anymore, ladies !!!! 😜

[@myracamilo7826]

Hello Linda, that is so nice of you to have your friends show us their garden. By the way I love your friend Laura’s garden, I watch her channel sometimes on How’s it growing, love her beautiful romantic garden. Thank you

[@Betty-qd8st]

Covid has more people growing home grown again. That’s the only silver lining. We should turn our grass into food plots. Imagine going on the porch or patio or even a grow room for fresh vegetables. 🥳

[@HowsItGrowing]

Completely agree. It's definitely been keeping me sane. If I had my way, no grass, all plants and food! Working on it!

[@cuptonmillerlpnful]

Love your garden and all of your beautiful plantings. It truly lovely. And I’m very partial to all of your beautiful black lanterns.❤️❤️❤️

[@daiseegray9110]

I found Laura how’s it growing earlier this year. Her garden is beautiful and I really enjoy her channel. Her style is fabulous!

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thank you Daisee! 💜

[@cynthiapetrone562]

I love Laura (How's it Growing). She has the most beautiful garden. She amazes me. I can't get over all she's accomplished. PERFECTION!

[@Lourdes-Ambrosio]

So excited for this tour. I've been following Laura for a few months now. I'm also from New Jersey and enjoy Laura's channel. I'm brand new to gardening so love that I have found someone in my area to relate to. Laura's garden is beautiful.

[@laurenwellman2516]

Awesome video, Laura. Your garden is looking fabulous. Thanks for sharing Linda. Love both of your gardens 🥰

[@ruthiewilliams3482]

I love what you have done so much

[@sydneykasmar]

I love this garden and the architecture of the buildings. The little terra cotta pots really caught my attention -topping the dahlia stakes these complete the stakes in an uncommon way. My eye was also captured by the tree in front of the potting shed and how it appeared to drape the roof. Thank you for sharing Laura's garden with us Linda.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Thanks so much Sydney!! 🤗🤗

[@ja-uh9gz]

I noticed the terra cotta pots, too...very cute, but also a safety measure. You can poke you eye, with those poles..lol.

[@terriklugh2910]

Laura has one of the prettiest gardens around! I have been following her for a while now. Love, love, love her style!

[@gggarden6085]

Her garden is more on the cottage side, but there is clearly some Linda Vater signature with those topiaries! I have been following How's it growing on KZbin for one year and a half now! I can't believe you two are close! I love you both!☘☘❤💕

[@angaeltartarrose6484]

Lovely idea of covering the driveway in gravel! And since flowers seem to attract all the wildlife... why it is so worthwhile & all the extra watering for even a few flowering plants!

[@karentemple5619]

I have been following Laura since her first "silent" video. I was immediately drawn to her style and watching her changes this past year has been phenomenal! She is truly a garden decorator creating cozy, whimsical and sophisticated areas in her small back yard with such beauty and flair at every turn. She has inspired me with each video in the garden and in my home. I knew she would be a star and she is shining so bright for all of us to enjoy. Thank you Linda for featuring Laura and thank you Laura for all your hard work to brighten our days!! ❤❤❤

[@HowsItGrowing]

You are just the nicest friend Kerrie! You have been there for me since day one. Our conversations have been touching to me and you’re an important part of my life. xo

[@DCT14]

I also am a huge fan of Laura! She is super sweet and has shared many of the elements that I personally love about her garden with me, and she could not have been more gracious . And I especially love her Instagram stories; she got a wicked sense of humor and a great eclectic taste in music . Thank you Linda for being so kind to share other gardeners and their gardens with your viewers🌸 And Laura congratulations and continued success and beauty with your garden.

[@HowsItGrowing]

haha! You know I am so silly! Thank you so very much! I'm really happy to read this!

[@monawolfe]

Beautiful garden so packed full of many beautiful things! I see influences from many different YT’ers including Linda. Amazing that you put that all together in such a short time. Thank you for sharing.

[@DixieGirl9876]

Gardening is definitely a journey, and I have loved seeing the transformation of Laura's garden.

[@skinnursern5852]

A beautiful neat and tidy garden Laura! You've done an incredible job creating space that flows and invites.

[@joanshute3384]

Hi Linda oh I was so excited to hear we we're visiting Laura's garden. I just Love, Love, Love her Garden. She is a Fantastic Gardener.

What a beautiful garden. And the house is stunning too. My little cottage was built in 1680. I love old houses with history. Have you thought about using old metal hanging baskets, lining them with moss?

It is sad with fires, hurricanes and other disasters withering our earth away its great to see you guys do your part. Also, helping our pollinators do their part to. Again,Thank you and God Bless you.❤🙏

I’m an avid fan of Laura’s and enjoy her humor as well as her amazing garden style. Her garden is not only enchanting, her demeanor makes you feel most welcome in her space.
