I’d love to see a monthly video on harvesting, storing, and using each of the herbs you bought today and any others you already had in your garden.

[@dorotaazzopardi8718]

Hi, Laura. You, your Mom and Monica are my distant, once removed 😂 internet gardening family. I love listening to you all talking, planning and laughing together. My morning coffee is better because I can listen to you and get inspired. 🌷🪻🌷thank you😊

[@lisag6796]

Love the genealogy reference!! I call Laura my KZbin bff!! 🤣

[@girlgrowswild]

So glad to know I'm not the only one drooling over new plants while winter refuses to let go! Its that time of year!

[@Terry-lh8cn]

I broke my wrist some years ago, taking a garden catalog to my neighbor. Slipped on black ice. Gardeners would understand the excitement over a catalog, though!

[@annettehoffa4024]

Fascinating project today! How did you determine which layer to plant each herb?

[@vkvk86]

When it gets nicer I would put that herb planter by your back door for convenience of use😊

[@tahirahparacha9392]

Golly.😲

[@ShadowNight-kt3dz]

I hate to brag, but tomatoes and peppers were planted here last week in Louisiana! Trees are full of fresh new green leaves and temps are steady in the 70s and 80s. I’m so ready! My average last frost date is this weekend, but nothing near a frost in the forecast.

[@michelesimpson2237]

I thought Russell was gonna dig the holes for you such a good helper.❤️🐈

[@wandabrown508]

Laura's enthusiasm for the new herbs is contagious. I couldn't help loving Russell's antics.

[@jilltibbetts3]

I am SO JEALOUS of this garden center! I live in Chicago and have never seen anywhere that carries this kind of variety of plants

[@shawntelrichard2041]

Same here. I wish we had these choices available.

[@gwenscoggins1]

Same where I live. No garden center nearby unless I drive 4 hours to get to one!

[@penelopehammerton2907]

My favourite Mint is Apple Mint. I use it when cooking New Potatoes 🧑‍🌾🪴👍

[@JesusSaves-JohnKJB]

Have you tried Gethsemane?

[@crystalbritzman907]

Come down to Indiana. There are a few places down here.

[@Blake.Cooper]

"You just wanna boop, boop!". I was thinking the same thing!!

[@leekit6099]

Cute🥰 I was thinking, Oh... look, A variety of stars to admire in the light of day💖

[@AuntBecky1]

If you can find strawberry mint, it's wonderful. I like to put strawberry mint and pineapple sage in water in a pitcher in the refrigerator. The best herbal water combo I've ever had.

[@Terry-lh8cn]

Interesting. I always grow pineapple sage for the hummingbirds, but have never used it. Might have to give it a try!

[@abiering]

@@Terry-lh8cnhow do you use the sage for the hummingbirds?

[@pammaconaghy9027]

@@abiering I believe they are attracted to the flowers?

[@abiering]

@@pammaconaghy9027 duh! I got to thinking later she was talking about the plant. I was thinking she made a juice or nectar from it to feed the birds! Thank you lol!

[@MakeItSo_ST]

One of the most delicious things ever is sorrel leaves on a good burger instead of lettuce. You get an amazing brightness and slight tartness to it that cuts through the heaviness of the burger. I eat veggie burgers, but my friends love it on the other kind, too.

[@dianegougelet1829]

Hi Guys My goodness, Susan's deliveries are stored away so efficiently & quickly. I admire her business acumen... a very SMART lady, for sure! I hope we get to see Monica's yard this year. Laura, your videos make it seem as if you breeze through your projects. LOL The hard work involved is incredible!! Even lifting the bags of potting soil, ripping them open & then pouring the soil out isn't an easy task! You also seem to make light work out of repetitive tasks. Last week, I finally planted two half whiskey barrel type planters to put on either side of my garage rollup door. I put a Cast Iron plant in the center, red Begonias in the second row with white Impatiens around the front to hopefully drape over the sides. You make that type of project look EASY! I did get the second one done more quickly than the first, but it wasn't EASY!! LOL Thank you for the inspiration.💗🙋

[@lisag6796]

Sounds beautiful!!

[@mariesheppert6212]

Would Love to see a picture of your whiskey barrel planted up.

[@johac7637]

I built some grow shelves for my starter plants, I put sliding shelves so they open to each side, let's the sunlight in better after the grow lighting isn't required.

[@maureengee364]

Love seeing the garden centre and Mum with Monica’s. Lots of plants. Thanks again for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@janeparker7150]

I need to do this for my sister who is almost completely blind. I think it would be a wonderful sensory experience for her. And we could make some wonderful things. Question: have you ever grown Lovage or Salad Burnet? They are old times herbs that have celery and cucumber (respectively) notes in scent and flavor. I find it so endearing when you say: “Look you guys, aren’t these so pretty.” It’s like you are really bringing us along with you. Thank you for sharing your love for gardening with us. Can’t wait to see the progress of your project.🥗

[@cindyhunter7325]

research and try caster oil for your sisters eyesight. beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, copper ,zinc, Omega 3 fatty acid, lutein. zeaxanthin, Bilberry and eyebright (and no smoking)

[@rebeccanisley8709]

Lovage is a perennial and it gets quite large! Needs its own pot!

[@beth5765]

I am both sad and grateful that I don’t live anywhere near your parent’s store. I would be broke for sure. I would be there weekly maybe daily! I do wish I had a local nursery with even half of the options you have.

[@WaterfallFW]

That made me tingle and almost cry. How wonderful to raise money like that for school! It’s gorgeous!

[@conniecasale3593]

Not only do you have loads of plants you have loads of patience. God bless.

[@JermaineGertse]

Not the "boop boop" 😂. In the words of Aaron. "Slay Queen" 💅

[@absurdistsloth]

lmao 😂

[@mariesheppert6212]

I Love the Green Stalk planter, I hope I will have a couple one day. I think it would be great since I am a senior and have disabilities. I am a long time viewer of Garden Answer and always excited when i learn new things. I enjoy watching the Benjamin, Samantha Grace, Russell, Douglas and yourself and Aaron. How far y’all have come with this place is amazing!!! So happy for y’all. I can’t forget about your Awesome Family, Mom, Dad and Sister.

[@InHisGardenCreations]

A whole green stalk tower of herbs! What a treat and a fun gift for a gardener/culinary chef!

[@michelerok4252]

I really love seeing Russell buddy

[@Sunshinelady]

So fun…I’m really thinking about getting a vertical herb garden!! 🌿 I love how the empty containers come in handy too.

[@judyklein3221]

It's awesome to see how you ladies get so excited about the plants. It's really a family thing. The herbs look so healthy and will be wonderful in your recipes.

[@Lulab3ll3]

The shot of you taking the plants in the green house was so idyllic! The snow looks like a paid actor, it’s so perfect lol 😂

[@desigrl7474]

Can you do a dish every week utilizing the herbs.. or a drink.. until all that you planted are used? That would be awesome!!

[@casaroccafamilyking]

"Weihenstefan" is a famous trial garden in Germany. They have also selected and introduced notably quality plants for decades. :-)

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

This video was so exciting and made me happy to watch Laura. She gets so excited like all of us gardener's. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤

[@ivyandroses25]

I just love your Mom & Monica! I also love virtually shopping with guys!

[@agneserakune4805]

Sorrel brings back my childhood memories , when early in the spring fresh growth comes out and me and my sisters run to the garden and grab some chives and rap them in sorrel leaves and eat them, best taste ever. And now 25 years later I still do the same thing. And if some is left over we chop them up and mix them with sour cream. Thanks for the video, definitely will try some of these herbs, so many good varieties. ❤💚

[@melnelo3875]

Thank you Laura and Family. I cherish this channel. You get me through the winter every year.

[@kayleverson5724]

Loved watching this! The”Boop boop” had me cracking up! Thanks for the laughs this morning! You brightened my day!

[@bouquetsbykarin]

Hi Laura.... just wanted to let you know the curry plant is AMAZING when used in chicken soup. My girls called it a chicken soup plant growing up. Now that they have kids I'll get the call to grab them a chicken soup plant when I hit our Nurseries in the spring. You'll love it. I toss in a couple short sprigs when making broth if I dont have chicken bones or bouillon. Happy Gardening!

[@rosealvarado264]

Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️

[@camicri4263]

Calendula is a Herb.... medicinal herb but you know that! So beautiful! You are so lucky to have your parents garden center and they are so reasonably priced.... To get plants like this in my area it's expensive! Always good to see Susan, Monica and Brittany and of course you Laura. Blessings 🙏🏻💞🙏🏻

[@RealBradMiller]

I love calendula, but can't stand how sticky they are, or their scent! Had some nearly survive the winter, but fifteen degrees knocked them out for good.

[@klcpca]

After the weather gets warmer, would be nice to move the herb-stalk right outside the door by your kitchen... fresh herbs just a step away....

[@Yambataller]

Gosh I love Monica. And your mum. And you Laura. You three are the most beautiful sight to be hold together. God bless you

[@alcg3981]

Diggin' the laid back background music as Laura speeds around picking her fave 30😊!

❤❤❤love it! Missed you girls so much! We got Mommy85 moved in her new place near so. cal beach. Daddy87 with her in spirit❤ Your heaven on earth looks wonderful😇🎉

[@absurdistsloth]

I LOVE growing herbs in with my ornamentals! In my tiny urban garden besieged by slugs and snails, the herbs do better with less work, remain untouched by pests, and just look and smell stunning all the time. One of my all-time favourite herbs to grow from seed is Parsley ‘Moss Curled 2’, not only is it really tasty but also it is sooo stunning to mix into the front of flowerbeds as an evergreen biennial! The mossy, frilly texture and lush green colour is unmatched. I’m off to go sow some more 😊

[@tonigardella4165]

I love this idea , I have an herb garden right outside my kitchen door and the best part is that I can just grab them as I’m cooking . I even put herbs in my salads their wonderful !❤🌿🌼🌸

[@dianev6180]

Thanks so much for this one! I just bought my first two Greenstalk 7-tier models, which arrived yesterday. I am so excited to get started and now I know the best way to go about the install, thanks to you! Love your channel!

[@martharice4916]

I used my Greenstalk for herbs last year. It was such a treat to go out on the deck and snip an assortment of herbs whenever I needed them!

[@SuperSassyLassy]

I have a four of them now. I am going out today to clean out and top one off with fresh soil so I can try winter sowing in one with hardy herbs/flowers. I had several clear plastic drink glasses that I burned holes in (so water can get inside) which fit perfectly in the pockets. So excited to see if it works!😊

[@judymckerrow6720]

@@SuperSassyLassy Good luck !🪻💚🙃

[@amytransue8756]

Never, in all the garden centers that I’ve been to, have I seen the variety of plants offered as Andrew’s Seed offers! Sure wish I was a local!!! It’s worth considering the move to OR!! 😂

[@OAKSkiers]

Beautiful plant hall. We live in zone 9b and grow both French and red-veined sorrel all year. It’s the only crop in the garden that we don’t have to cover. The critters leave this plant alone for some reason 🌱💚

Love the herb haul. Any chance of a video where you and Monica demonstrate ways you use some of the herbs? Pretty please!

[@am100ish]

Blue star creeper is awesome! Can’t wait to see it in your garden! ❤

[@dianeb95]

What an awesome selection! I’ll probably never get out your way, but if I ever did, Andrew’s Seed Co would be on my bucket list!

[@pattimiller7914]

That’s quite a haul of plants!! 😮 Exciting! You have mentioned your mom’s knowledge of herbs a couple of times. Do you think she would ever agree to do a Q&A? I would love to hear her talk about medicinal herbs, since you previously said she made a lot of tinctures and ointments. Also, do you think you will ever give beekeeping another try? Love your channel! ❤

[@tanyawales5445]

Calamint has a minty wintergreen smell. Delicious! It loves shade to half sun. I like catmint better than catnip. Catmint is more compact, has beautiful blue flowers and doesn't send out runners. The tiny sedums would be great for a fairy garden. Little girls really enjoy playing in fairy gardens. Calendula is a healing herb. It is used in salves and creams to help heal cuts and scrapes. Coriander IS cilantro. Usually the seeds are called coriander.

[@gailheyer9810]

I work at Michael’s our store has metal markers on sale in the jewelry section that can be engraved with your plant names. Sever different types !

[@Terry-lh8cn]

Can't beat "free" though

[@Chet_Thornbushel]

I have always read the Treneague Chamomile is non-flowering, used as more of a turf replacement. You may want to look into that so you aren’t disappointed by having it in your herb garden 🙃 This looks great! I love how the tags can nestle right in!

Lay the cap from the drain hose over the hole while you add your soil to keep soil from dropping down the hole. Then remove when you place the watering tray.

Jacob Cline is one of my favorite plants of all time. I have a variety of bee balms, maybe 10, and that is the most stunning of them all. It gets over 5 feet tall with huge red flowers. And it multiplies!

[@cathybehler4893]

I went to our local nursery and I was so disappointed in what they had. I wish i was closer to your mom's nursery she has such a great selection to choose from. I live in Elgin Texas.

[@jemmaleofitz1152]

I am so envious of ur haul. U are truly blessed ur parents run such an awesome nursery. I live in West Texas & only have the big box stores in my town. The next town over has a couple of independent nurseries. But they don't sell anything like this. Only 1 of the nurseries sell a small selection of Proven Winners. If I want something specific, I have to order online. So I live vicariously through ur visits to Andrew's Seed . Thanks for taking us along. I thoroughly enjoy ur videos.

[@latherandlace]

I bought the Greenstalk last year and never used it. I just ordered the spinning bottom and plan to grow some strawberries and mint in mine. I hope my mint stays put and I really hope the strawberries turn out. My biggest issue is they get lots of sun and I don't always water enough. I'm definitely not putting in a drip system. Not enough garden, really! Love love love your videos, property, and ambition! I'm 64 so I've scaled back my projects!

You are so blessed, but I am too, I come to Arizona for birds that don't like snow,lol, and Okanagan Canada for summer. I'm blessed to have 2 gardening seasons, one in Canada, one in Arizona, both have brutal opposites. My challenge is have to deal with heat, brutal heat, haven't found a plant with a name that includes "barbeque" I plant black eyed peas, sunflowers, into tilled rows in the Diakon, winter peas, turnips, Vetch, flax, buckwheat, and Mexican sunflower, chicory, it is interesting to see how the interplanting benefit each other, and how my dirt is turning into soil. I drool in the garden centers no matter where I go, awaiting the return of Jesus so I can garden in a perfect world. Happy gardening folks.

What a great way to grow herbs💞

[@trevormay4590]

Such a great tip to use the first empty pot from the plant you’re placing in the GreenStalk to cover the watering hole! I had been using a coffee filter and a rubber band to keep dirt out of the central watering area-and while not inconvenient, it was a bit of a pain. Will be using that trick for sure this spring!!

[@DebWh]

I have the Blue Star Creeper! It's so pretty w/beautiful tiny blooms. It was kind of expensive ... I bought 2 containers and split them up into 14 individual plants. We placed them between our, shady/part shade slate stone walkway. Perfect!!!

[@melissakraemer5345]

I am always excited to see a video with your mom down at the garden center. Today, I was admiring the Andrews hoodie your mom has on. I have all the Garden Answer clothing options. Will you ever consider also having Andrews Seed clothing on your Garden Answer shop?

[@catherinemann3378]

If retired with rv that has a motorcycle atv ramp...could have a greenstalk set on a dolley. People use an electric pulley to haul bikes back into rv....so could probably do that for a greenstalk.
