How to Plant in a Basket! 🥰🌿💚 // Garden Answer

[@christinerivero5557]

“I’ve got more.” Of course you do! 😂 This basket is absolutely beautiful, I cannot wait to go to my local nursery and try to find these colors so I can make a basket like this! Thank you so much for inspiring us!

We’ve should of known she had more LMBO when she popped up with the flowers and said “I’ve got more”! 🤣😂🤣 This is why I ❤️ her and her videos so much! ❤️

[@kspradling63]

Was I the only one thinking "there is no way that Laura is only putting those few plants in that basket"....then BAM, a whole flat appears! Now that's my girl!!

[@kaitlynmadden4600]

Exactly my thought 🤣

[@whycaresomuch2020]

Lol yup!

[@stellakotsia3357]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@vger9942]

I laughed so hard when she pulled out the rest of the plants. Too funny.

[@debbiemacy3840]

I was thinking the same thing. Then out comes that whole tray and I laughed out loud.

[@stephanieblume5448]

She's done it again! What a GORGEOUS arrangement. XOXOXOXO

[@eddye7764]

Laura, I remember years ago you were putting together a hanging arrangement and when you were cutting the "lining" you accidentally cut the trailing plant, and immediately when you did that you and I gasped at the same time, you looked at the camera in astonishment and continued with the project. I think that's what I've learned most from you, accidents happen, but just keep going. Thank you Laura and Aaron for brightening up my garden life.🌼

[@Toinette2883]

Those hellebores are gorgeous. They were never really my favourite but last year you reintroduced me to them and I got a few for my garden. They have so many beautiful varieties now and I am loving them❣️ can’t wait to pick up more !

[@user-vs3rr8qx2b]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZTHoH15grCHms0 ...

[@kims4529]

Love this arrangment!! I was shocked that you weren't going to fully pack the plants in ... and then you pulled out the extra flat! 🤣

[@stallkvernbakkan8145]

Laura is great! Just when I thought that maybe there should be a little more filling in the big container - then L says: "I have some more plants" .. and pulls out a whole flat with beautiful plants, colors and varieties! So then we say like L: "I Love it!"

[@lauragreen4899]

"I've got more...." Surprise surprise! Please show us when you take it apart and plant it out in the garden. You inspired me last year to plant some perennials mixing with annuals in containers. I have never done that before. It was so nice in the fall to be able to put those perennials in the landscape. I hope I didn't do it too late and they come up this spring. We'll have to see. Thanks for all the fun ideas and inspiration.

[@deezahm9143]

🌷Good morning Laura and GA friends from freezing, dark and wintry Michigan. Nothing beats my day off with delicious coffee and Laura working her magic. Have a great day everyone 🌸🌼🌺

Beautiful. My husband of 3 years opened the world of gardening to me. We found your channels and have learned a lot (I can name flowers and plants now). My husband and I made plans for this coming year, but he went on to be with the Lord the other night. It was a rapid decline within 4-5 weeks with an aggressive cancer. We loved watching, learning, and planning what we wanted to do each year. Value each moment with your kids, spouses, and families. God bless you all.

[@carolwarmoth8744]

My condolences. Thank the Lord he is no longer suffering.

[@lmhatfield46]

So sorry for your loss. ❤️

[@susievarady275]

So sorry to hear about your husband. Sending prayers, hugs and much love your way.

[@alw5101]

So so sorry for your tragic loss of your husband Heather ..... it is never an easy journey to have to face but please take comfort in knowing that he is safely in the presents of the Lord. May God wrap you in his blanket of love as you try to heal your broken heart 🤍🙏🏼🤍

[@lovestogarden3132]

So sorry for your loss.

[@altheab.8907]

Beautiful spring basket, Laura. If you set it on some small stones to raise it above the ground the bottom won’t get damaged when the water drains out and it will last longer.

[@BrandyDawn]

Yesss! Ive been dying for container planting videos! Spring/summer are finally coming!! I’m so excited!!

Oh something positive peaceful and beautiful on this day of chaos and war. Thank you laura for giving me some joy even for a few minutes May god bless us all

[@ZussieMakesit]

She actually put the whole flat in!!! 💜 Laura always amazes me with her ability to do containers!!! #goals 😊

[@adrianafelixtaylor2092]

Love all you do Laura, it doesn’t matter if you cooking shopping or planting. I was watching you in my kitchen during breakfast like I always do. My step son comes in and says mom she has a calming voice, I totally agree 🥰

[@chrisrfan]

Oh how pretty!! I have a basket just like that sitting out in my garage that is now screaming to be used for a project just like this!! I had to chuckle when you pulled out another flat of plants, “ I have more!” she says….of course you do Laura, of course you do!

I’m having spring fever but my last frost is around April 15 here in 7a. Our temps have been up and down for the last couple of weeks.

[@sandramulchahey8268]

I'm in South Carolina, it's lovely right now and my azaleas are blooming, many other things are budding, I'm terrified of a late frost.

[@peggy-ann1961]

We’re twice as cold as normal here in Manitoba ( -10 cel...zone 3b) and we’ve got way more snow than we’ve had for years. So we’re getting pretty desperate for spring! Laura you feed my soul, thank you for being such an inspiration! Bringing beauty to us, including those who don’t have access to plants right now, is such a help in these worrisome times. You, your family and extended family are treasures! 💐❣️🇨🇦

[@67horses]

Good morning all have a safe and blessed day

[@cnorovich48]

Love planting baskets for spring! A good substitute for the burlap bag that I use is landscape fabric. It’s cheap enough and pretty much the same idea. Thanks for the inspiration Laura! I can’t wait to get started.

[@donnaikin7397]

Wow!!! That looks fantastic. Bring on Spring!! I still have about 6mths until springtime as in Australia we are headed into autumn (fall) 🍁🍂

[@bml3699]

Best part!? "I've got more" 🤗 Absolutely stunning basket arrangement! 😍🙌

[@bluesky7226]

I noticed your new ring in the last video. Lovely.

[@tammym110]

I need to pay more attention to baskets in thrift stores. This basket arrangement is gorgeous. You are so talented. I love these videos of arrangements. I’ve always wanted to learn how to make them and you are such a great teacher. I have been making more and more of my own plant and flower arrangements around the house and yards. You made me realize that it’s fun to buy plants intended for the landscape that can be placed in containers for a season with annuals for a fun arrangement until it’s ready for the landscape. This year thanks to you I will plant my own cut flower garden so I can make more arrangements in every single room. Thank you for posting this video.

[@jcking6785]

Hellebores and violas are two of my most favorite Spring flowers so this basket makes my heart sing with joy! 💜🤍❤️

[@wendycash54]

When I first opened this video I had to do a double check on the date. No noticeable snow in the background, its sunny and you are in short sleeves. It looks so warm out! Thanks for bringing in a touch of spring when we are all sooooo ready!

[@tonigardella4165]

Oh I’m so excited this morningwatvhingyouputtogether this basket arrangement because I went to a thrift store and I bought a couple of baskets and I didn’t know exactly what I was going to do with them and now I know , thank you so much . By the way I had to laugh when I thought you were finished with all your planting and suddenly you said , I’ve got more , lol love your videos !❤️🪴🌻

Loved your plant choices (as usual) for this gorgeous spring basket. Love the Platinum Blonde lavender plant; will definitely be looking for that plant this year! Thanks for your inspiration and gearing us all up for spring time Laura! 🌷🌷🌷

[@camicri4263]

Good morning everyone! Such a sweet basket! The flowers are absolutely gorgeous! So, so beautiful! What a pretty day for you to be outside, in Georgia is suppose to be 75°F today and than 10 degrees or more cooler. It sucks though because than will have a frost in April and then hot and humid. This week I have to go and trim my roses and everything else! 😍 Have a fantastic rest of the week everyone! Hugs🤗🌺🤗🌺🤗🌺🤗❤

[@d.wilbur5164]

I'm north of Atlanta and have been on a mission to have all my hydrangeas, roses, and ornamental grasses cut back by March 1, and there are a lot of them. As of yesterday, all are cut back and I'm still cleaning up the mess. I'll be ready to fertilize March 1st!! YAY for spring! Have fun with your pruning. Almost 80 degrees here today! Whoopee!!!

[@jennifercline7843]

I live in Central Oregon and woke up yesterday to -2 degrees. I have warm weather envy. We usually can't plant till really June and sometimes we still get a freeze. So looking forward to summer.😁

[@kathysmith2541]

Beautiful basket! Love the “packed in” plants! I always am hesitant to use so many, but this looks doable! Thanks for the inspiration ❤️

I would love to see a garden tour right now of all the plants that show some signs of spring! 🌷

[@hannah748dale]

This arrangement has to be one of my favorites that you’ve ever done! Now, I really want to go thrift shopping to find a pretty basket and make something that will hopefully look as beautiful as this. Thank you Laura for the inspiration!!🌸

[@juliafiore120]

Good morning, Laura ☕️ Another stunning Spring planter!🙌🏻 In love with Hellebores for sure😊. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈

[@maynardgreenhouse]

I love how you’re not afraid to add interest with foliage. It’s often the texture people forget to add to their containers. Beautiful as always Laura 💕

[@andreabenson2491]

The basket is the perfect choice for spring plant container! The mixed colors of green, the contrasting textures and the precious colors came together perfectly! Great creation and inspiration as always👏👍❤️💃

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Laura, Holy Cow! How many plants ended up in that container (inquiring minds would like to know)? Wow, that spring basket arrangement is absolutely stunning! At the start of the video, I thought the Platinum Blond Lavender was probably some new variety of Euphorbia with those wider leaves. Hopefully, I'll be able to find that beautiful variegated lavender at my local garden centers this year. I love it! Thanks for all the tips and great ideas.

[@trudimorris8206]

Spring is in the air!! Time for beautiful arrangements! We have had unseasonably warm weather here in Redding, Ca! Up to 80 degrees! Whew! Thats insane for Feb!! Many of my daffodils have popped up already..and now were headed for a cold front..weird weather..so i have to wait for late Mar..early April to do a pretty spring basket like Lauras..just beautiful! Cant wait!! 🥳🌺🌸🌼💖

[@Godwinpounds4333]

Hi 👋 dear, how are you doing?

[@aprilscott3022]

“I’ve got more!” 🤣🤣🤣 Of course you do, Laura! I would expect nothing less! Thank you for the tips on how to make a basket usable as a planter. And I may need some of those Berry Swirls!

[@shyris466]

I love using this technique! I wanted a nice sized collection of planters in front of my house, but struggled to find a nice looking style that I could afford multiple planters in. So I thought of doing this, and went down to Goodwill and bought a variety. Took them home, stripped and stained them, then hit them all with a spray paint sealer, and they've survived several years in the rainy Willamette valley. I've had a couple finally succumb to the elements, but then I just head back to a thrift shop and find and fix up a new one for cheap.

[@doanetriggs6254]

This is just sensational and certainly something that so many viewers can realistically achieve even without of yard. Please, more, more of these container videos!

[@iartistdotme]

Holy G.O.A.T. Batman! This one should be on magazine covers placed in millions of doctors' offices just to make people feel better. You picked exactly the right bloomers and leafers, colors and sizes for an Olympic Gold display. Did I mention I really like it? Perfect 10!

[@tanon823]

Living in zone 3 it honestly never occurred to me that people do planters or baskets before May 20th, which is our technical start to the frost free season. Without a greenhouse, I would be too scared to risk something as beautiful as this basket. I always tell people our perennials are so tough they grow their own fur and eat meat to survive. This winter we had almost a month and a half where the temperature was -34 to -43 C. Spring will be a series of surprises to see what comes back up. 🙏🌸🌹🌼

[@JermaineGertse]

Morning... that var. lavender and hellobores are so beautiful

[@kimkennedy123]

This might be my favorite container you've ever done! I also really love those containers from a few years ago where you put hellebores and pansies together with Angelina sedum, I think it was for some magazine? You should make a video of some of YOUR favorite videos/projects in the history of Garden Answer!! Love all this spring color 😍

[@stephaniekite9361]

I was wondering when I only saw the one viola, thinking this is not Laura's usual mode- and then "I've got more". You are a wonder. Container is inspiring! Thank you!
