I LOVED #4... THE WAY THE FLOWERS HUGGED THE VASE WAS STUNNING AND DIFFERENT LENGTHS.... LOVED, LOVED, LOVED IT..... AARONS #3 POT WAS STUNNING...

[@kathyguenther5866]

Ode to the last poor pot I think next year you should plant them all to honor him. Simplicity at it's finest.... Great job Aaron, Laura I love your fill the pot full attitude. Thanks guys..... Love the before, after and in-between photos nice work......

[@mrsmac1974]

Aaron's "VICTORY!" cracks me up. :D Great update with ideas for my own planters next year.

[@charlascovil1630]

What a difference from planting, to July, to September. I think his last pot wins for beauty in the face of such diversity! Great job! I loved the competition and the ability to see so many options! Thank you!

[@maryjanegarvey2124]

Love how Laura gives the positive & negatives of the plants.

[@michelle72]

Aaron’s victory fireworks! Loved it! And the cute little ladybug....

[@honeytearz1228]

Your neighbour's lawn looks magnificent. Perfect backdrop for your containers.

[@YAorNAmovies]

Thanks for the update. I understood perfectly what you meant about them appearing as one when they are planted all the same. This was a really fun little competition. Hope you do it again.

[@laurieanne9712]

I vote YES for another contest next year--fun!!

[@MsJdub99]

Yafa Pareve agree! I was thinking what if they did all the same centrepieces and varied the surrounding filler/spillers. That way they’re a little unified but still a fun experiment.

[@conniemartin8535]

@@MsJdub99 eeeeee

[@margievaughan2456]

You’re both big winners. I loved the update & am always so inspired after watching your videos. Loved the cousin it & especially loved Aaron’s cute video additions. You’re such a lovely couple. 😊

[@camicri4263]

Oh my goodness, they look good with little problems....here and there. But the last container that had so many problems... looks glorious! Good job Aaron! Loved the victory fireworks Aaron....lol. They look great! And please have another competition! So much fun!

[@muttnjeff9030]

I love seeing the containers from start to finish with check-ins along the way. It gives one a better idea of what to expect the plants to do over time. Thanks. I really loved this project. (I think Aaron won with the 2 plants in one pot!)

[@wingingitsemiretiredlife2981]

Laura I know you love symmetry, but I have to tell you I really loved this video series it was so fun. I also loved seeing all the different looking plants it really gives you a good idea of how different combinations grow together. And lol I think Aaron was the upset winner in this competition! He had some interesting choices that really looked great in the end! Happy gardening guys.

[@MilesSherry]

There’s something to be said for planting less and waiting it out instead of instant gratification. Aaron’s containers look great! 🍾

[@dianamay3609]

So this is how devoted I am to this channel. I watch every Ad...and if I accidentally click Skip Ads I get mad at myself!

[@alisabanda1938]

😂

[@conniethingstad1070]

I like doing the different pots and learning what works well together for future plantings. thanks for doing this project and the update. we are all always learning!

[@imahappygal1]

Love Aaron’s touches great sense of humor! Can’t believe you can grow wild berry and hosta in part sun in your heat!! Learned a lot. Thanks for sharing!🌞😁

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

This was fun from the planting until now! Aaron...funny pop ups,especially the fireworks!🤣🥳💚

[@marilynbaldwin2934]

Aaron's video with fireworks were great! Have another context next year loved this one!

[@chezgirlrose7654]

Thank you Laura and Aaron for the update on your pots ... you two work so great together 💜💐💜 🌸🌿🌺🌱🌼🍃

[@melissaluttrell4159]

It always cracks me up how bundled up you are!

[@beachseeker634]

Thank you for the update on the container plants. It was a fun project to watch. LOL at Aaron for the victory fireworks and all the other little "enhancements" to the video. 🌸🌿🌼😀

[@zariawilliams1901]

I don't even know you. I love you. You've saved my quarantine.

[@ksedlock]

Aaron's victory fireworks and Cousin It touches were priceless!!!! I loved this project, so gorgeous...much love...

[@amandaloewen6479]

Very nice update! It’s lovely to see and hear ya talk about pros and cons with the different combinations. It was cool to see your competition and would be awesome to see another competition between you and Aaron. Have a wonderful day 💐😀

[@marieclark4609]

Those Princess flowers you're talking about I think they're very pretty he did a great job🤘👍👍👏👏😘😍🥰🤩🧡💛 all that lavender and purple is pretty together

[@JadeGiggles]

Loved Aaron’s whimsical additions in editing. His victory made me lol!

[@fribelenesoliven4305]

Enjoyed all your plants but I enjoyed more the husband wife tandem as you both share the love of your life which is planting beautiful flowering plants

[@georgeaguirre9426]

All those containers look great. Think i am gonna try some of those this weekend.

[@marcyfarrell5369]

I love this experiment with the different selection of flowers. They are all beautiful and it’s nice to know you have the same issues as the rest of us....I tried a lot of new plants this year, some were very successful and a couple weren’t, but that had to do with the amount of sun they get and I knew that going in. You guys are fantastic......

[@gjb79ful]

Great video, Laura you are an awesome presenter, you have a great way of speaking to the camera.

[@kaykoehlmoos3236]

I would really enjoy a video of what plants go well together and which ones don’t before next spring planting. Kay from Easter SD

[@lindaplaidduck]

Loved everything about this... Aaron, you're so clever with the "Cousin It" glasses, the lady bug "Yelp" and your "Victory" fireworks!! You two make a great team!! Thanks! 😄👓🐞🎆👫🌱👍❣

[@bellamiamb]

Good to know the Lemon Slice performed equally well in direct and indirect light!!

[@bemfawkes3214]

I love the cousin it and the salvia pot, absolutely beautifully messy.

[@happynature6529]

Bem Fawkes yessss they are my favorites too 👍👍👍

[@mya2541]

the cousin it was my favorite so I copied it this year and I wish I could show you a picture the black eyed Susan vine is growing like crazy and it's not even July

[@bemfawkes3214]

@@mya2541 I'm sure it is absolutely wonderful 😍

[@teriratterman6389]

👍💟You made perfect sense! And probably why the plants look a little better on the grass side is they are not getting the heat from the gravel.🥰🌻🍁🌾🌿

[@rlbx58]

I grow black-eyed Susan's every year in containers. I have a large trellis that I hung horizontally on a fence and the containers sit underneath. Every year I have a gorgeous wall of yellow. 🌼

[@radhikam2401]

YES to another contest. This has been super fun to follow along. Fingers crossed we get another update.

[@gcruz983]

I think Aron bested you on this one ! Good job Arron. !

[@ninawill8053]

One of my favorite posts this year! Love the competition part of it and seeing results of it is fantastic. Aaron's "handy" work in this video was hilarious and i laughed so hard at the Victory one that i spilled my coffee on myself! And Laura you gave me mini stroke by pushing on that giant spider and then after that keep putting your hand back to that general area,you are my hero lol.

[@peggyscott2180]

This is exactly what I wanted to see. So sad about the fall. I must wait until February before planting begins again. 5 months!!!

[@noemierollindedebeaumont1130]

Aaron, i had so much fun with the little touch of special effects you added 😀😆 ! My favorite is "i'm down here" 😉 i had a good laugh 😁 I absolutly loved this serie of videos, it gave me great ideas for next year !

[@paulinewqi]

Now....after 3rd video following progress of all the pots of beautiful plants....I vote Aaron as the winner....Sorry, Laura. This is a surprise for me...almost every flower pot of Aaron's turned out pretty gorgeous. In the beginning, I was thinking you will win hands down cos Aaron's pots were nothing much...haha.. Thanks so much for sharing...💖💝

[@wdfamily_027]

The containers look great, I think Aaron stole the show! PS, those pop ups are awesome!

[@maxinemiller3226]

I enjoyed watching the process of the planting of your pots from beginning to September video. Hope ya'll will do this contest next year!!

[@lucieengen7046]

Cousin It, LOL! I would definitely try that it was very dramatic. Aaron, you crack me up with your victory fireworks 💥 lol. Great job you two and what a fun competition!

[@sueknee8813]

Oh I love Aaron’s container with the sedum and canna is absolutely gorgeous.

[@pyewacket60]

This video was so refreshing; you own up to experiments gone on a different direction than you expected. Gives all of us the permission to follow our creative inclinations. ❤️

[@melissapaul3348]

great video, fun competition, really hope you bring it back in some form... my favorite was the coral sedum and the wildness of the salvia - two extremes

[@barbll000]

This competition was so fun to watch and to follow with updates. I hope you do it again next year.

[@deannededemariehampton768]

SIMPLY GORGEOUS!!! I VOTE FOR THE SAME CONTEST NEXT YEAR, SO MUCH FUN!!! Thank you Laura and Aaron (love the special effects) the planters are so beautiful, it's great to see the update. The coleus is so GORGEOUS. I'm getting back into them, I just got a new one that I hadn't heard of, I will try to post a picture of it in the group page. Thanks again you guys. GOD bless you.

[@giselsqui5912]

I love to see a container competition with your mom. That thought just came up and i think that would be exiting❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jimoviegirl]

I think having them all different keeps your eyes moving and you go past going oooh like that ooh that one is amazing. Ladybird was epic. Loved them all .Thank you for the share. Xx

[@dolomitic]

I will plant earlier next year and get bigger containers, I looove the no centerpiece style and how it creates a huge ball ❤️. Thanks Laura ❤️

[@shaunamuztafago3079]

Container Competition every year! All stunning!

[@tracktor721]

I'm here, rewatching 💚🇵🇭

[@maryczapla5454]

Oh my gosh I laughed out loud, the fireworks, too funny. You two are just the cutest!!💚

[@Candylandavenue1]

Aaron!!! You did a great job on your pots! 🤣 They all look so amazing! #gardengoals

[@BozackZodiack]

I absolutely LOVE getting to follow your projects like this one, with the July update and now this later update! It's so interesting and beautiful to see how the plants are doing together and how you handle set-backs! And oh my god, the editing on this video is hilarious! The little speech bubbles and the plant name tag hiding when you couldn't remember the potato vine name, it was so funny! :D

[@christinalw19]

Great video, Laura!!! I learned a lot. Thank you! 💚💜💛

[@peggyjk]

This really helps all of us to see how so many different plants grow, kind of like a trial garden. My favorite was the second pot with no centerpiece. But you know they all began to look a little weary this time of year, time to think about next year!!!!!! We’re not defeated, let’s do it again, that’s what gardeners do!

[@dannac_8888]

That slow release fertilizer is powerful. I think if you had time to manicure them and spray them daily, we'd have a completely different look for September. That one Red Canna thrived as a solo, perhaps overcrowding the pot with 3 is why they say to put spacing between plants, it really helps them not fight for nutrients and water. Aaron's red canna had no crispy edges at all on the leaves.

[@patjones5723]

Ohhhhhhhhhh Aaron...I loved the "victory" fireworks!!! LOL LOL LOL AND flowers and bugs that talk. LMBO Now, if that wasn't enough...then we have Laura with "cousin it"....LOL

[@marthafigueroa4686]

Thank you for showing the pots I think they all still look beautiful.

[@iartistdotme]

So glad to see this update. It's interesting to see how things progress and hope you do another just to see the full cycle for the pots.

[@smccoy42]

Thank you for the update on these containers. I loved that you did the competition this year!!!

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Laura and Aaron! Thank you for showing the competition pots! They are all so pretty. I vote for you doing this again next year. Since your hayracks are all the same, I like the variety of these pots. Aaron, your editing was spot on again! I love the Lantanas. I put one in a rectangle pot with a blue bacopa on each side. I bought a yellow Lantana for a pot that lost a plant. I grew some Dahlias in pots and they've done really well. One pot has 3 and 2 other pots have 1 each potted in with Nasturtiums. They were a mix, so I don't know the varieties. I would say overall, IMO, Aaron had the most wins! Good job Aaron on the "less is more" ideas. It's nice to see how each variety of plants did in the pots. At least most of them were wins. Thank you for sharing!

[@Cenepk101]

Cousin It is definitely a winner. Beautiful

[@brittanyd521]

I would love to see another competition! I learned so much

[@brendabraun5522]

Loved the added cartoons!! Thank you for the update.

[@ElderandOakFarm]

I actully love that one that has the hosta in it! Doesn't overtake the container too much! I love the look of the overgrown mounding ones too though... *sorry for so many comments!

[@gymsbeansent]

Aaron's "less is more" is working ♥♥

[@wandakerstetter6352]

Love all the pots, can’t believe how good they still look. Hopefully we get another video when they bloom again. Aaron and his VICTORY shot Oh my goodness I loved that. WTG Aaron!!

[@dawndawn6946]

This competition was so much fun! Thank you for updating us! Aaron, great job! 🎉 I so enjoy watching your very professional videos with just the right amount of you two in them (four if you count Benjamin and Russell, and we can’t leave them out!).

[@marthemorais7636]

Love the competition......the first one you showed is my favorite.

[@Frankiefailure]

Wow! Aaron's pots look better. Way to go Aaron!

[@saolyartstudio752]

Wow ... Amazing landscape ❤️. Beautiful pot of flowers ❤️

[@ibethalfaro236]

Congratulation to Aaron, thank you guys for your videos and the good ideas❤️. God keep blessing you guys. I hope you guys can make another contest😊.

[@carolsuesamuelson7935]

I planted the yellow cousin plant in a pot with 7 ft support. It has taken it all summer but it is blooming up a storm. My husband says to plant this again next year. When the sun shines on the blooms they look like a sport light is on them. Thank you for the update. You must be my long lost granddaughter i can sometimes over plant my pots!!

[@pyewacket60]

My favorite is the hosta, euphorbia and heuchera planter. Love the contrasts and that they look like they play well with each other. ❤️

[@Yanatheweirdo]

Aaron's editing is fantastic.

[@3in2Art]

Aaron’s humor always brightens my day! 😂👍🤗

[@gardenbugdesigns]

I say make the competition an annual thing!!! I loved that one, and I’m not competitive.

[@VirginiaHale]

Yes! Thanks for the update. I love seeing how they did & did not do well. The info is very helpful. So thank you for taking the time to show us. Question? How did the mother in laws plants do after you moved them? Also how is the sister's in laws garden doing & the splash pad pots? Sorry if that's a lot but would love just a picture of them to see how they look now that they have had a chance to grow a bit. Just would love to see them. Got to see Russell strolling by, he is to cute. But anyway thank you. Have an awsome day.

[@gardenanswer]

Hi! My mother-in-laws plants did really well! All, but one arctic fire dogwood, didn’t skip a beat. That one is growing, but shocked a bit, so is behind the others but I expect a full recovery! Splash pad has closed for the season, so those pots are done. We were pleased with how they grew. And, the plants in my sister in laws garden are doing great! We’re going to film a boulder placement video this Friday and then will probably plant more! 💚

[@carlaradke4066]

Oh good, was waiting to see those boulders!

[@sterterous]

Me too.

[@VirginiaHale]

@@gardenanswer Yeah! Can't wait. Thanks for the update on your plants & all the other replys. It's good to hear that everything is doing well.

[@debiedove8807]

I have really enjoyed this series 💚

[@laurenwellman2516]

Awesome job! Please do something like this next season. I agree with you that it is a great experiment to see not only how the plants perform but what works well together.

[@theresaburg5881]

The purple/green sweet potato vine with the yellow lemon peel (?) would be amazing and out of control. Love all of the containers.

[@eugenemaeganfaber7680]

I actually really love the last one with the hosta, heuchera, and euphorbia.

[@vickieandrews5709]

I hope you do another contest next year. I really love the warm color pots. But the lemon sedum and the lily's was very pretty and so was the "cousin it" container. You gave me lots of ideas for next year. Thanks for the updated video.

[@katiegray14]

I’ve been eyeing these containers in the background of your videos. 😂 Thank you for the update!! Your videos are the best!

[@MomDroogs]

They all have been beautiful! Fun experiment!.... I think my favorite is "Cousin It"

[@creativelady7]

I have really enjoyed this potted flowers competition between you two! Yes, a great learning process. Suggestion for next year, two different selections of plants alternated all the way down drive would be gorgeous!

[@Della5474]

YASSS i"ve been loving the container episodes all summer. what a fun idea and i hope you two do it again :)

[@jacquelinecadogan204]

I really enjoyed these pots this year. Hope you continue with more red next year. Great fun you 2.

[@kendrab.1009]

This video was so much fun! I love it!

[@ElderandOakFarm]

I always come back to these types of videos when planning my container combinations! Love them!

[@nowellasegismundo4455]

I love Aaron's planters best. 😍

[@shawnamuschamp8972]

What you were saying totally makes sense! I much rather a monochromatic flower pot garden!

[@kathyrichardson4352]

wow cousin IT! holy mackerel the difference between start to now!

[@Angela152half]

A fall planter competition would be fun to see.
