I Gave This Army Family An ULTIMATE Welcome Home Gift

[@ralphclark2711]

Phil, it is a pleasure to watch you helping older and needy people. I am a 76-year-old Vietnam veteran United States Marine Corps and the respect you show is sorely needed in this country today. May God bless you and your family !!!!😊😊

[@vickytownsend1646]

Thank you sir for your service 😊

[@bill944]

Welcome home Mr.Clark. Forever thankful to you, all who served and their families.

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you for your service Mr. Clark! God bless you and your family.

[@JanieGreen3041]

This video made you #1 in my book​@fillslawncare

[@bobbij3030]

Thank you, sir, for your service to this country.

[@dennisjacobs7589]

That is Mullen. A weed also used as an herbal medicine.

[@davidyoung5114]

I would be interested in knowing what some of the properties look like one year after you have done the lawn work. I hope the people who benefited from your generous gifts kept their properties in a better state of up-keep!

[@bobbij3030]

Fill... that plant is a Mullein Verbascum and most people consider it a weed. It grows very tall and usually has a single floral spike, which is usually yellow. I say 'usually consider it a weed' because in 'naturalized gardens' those are planted for pollinators, it's most beneficial and draws bees, butterflies and even bats.

[@klikklakis]

The difference between flowers and weeds is very subjective. To me anything that doesn't get mowed is a weed unless it is labeled before hand. Another great job.

[@trinamcgarvey-vw7ke]

Mullein. Many consider it an herbal plant, good for healing. Others consider it a weed. Good call to leave it. Wonderful job on the property!

[@geecollins4915]

Men like this are hard to find He don’t mind getting dirty and getting the job done Great job young man ❤

[@debbiefortune2180]

14:16 ok, the first one is a wild sweet William or soapwort. The second is mullein, I bought mine but it also grows wild. It has a lot of medicinal properties, in Michigan it’s a native plant, others see it as a weed. Eye in the beholder of both plants.

[@_HomewardBound]

Very kind of you.💪❤.

[@euniceloy7120]

Another amazing job. And if the gentleman whom you helped happens to see this comment, thank you for your service. 🇱🇷

[@mariel9385]

The fuzzy, green plant at 13:40 looks like a mullein plant. Some people consider it a weed, others say it's an herb. It has been used for years for its medicinal benefits.

[@darinvierth1679]

Mullein. I've always considered it to be a weed(25 years as a lawn care tech). However, you can purchase the seeds for it online and plant it like a perennial. Side note: the definition of a "weed" is "any plant growing in an undesired location." So a tree could be considered a weed.

[@sarahktm]

Exactly! Depends on if you want it growing there. Maybe she's an herbalist and knows mullein is high in value for anything lung related and to make earache oil. Wonderful plant friend. Likely seeded itself there though. Biennial not perennial. ❤

[@christinashawgo6510]

Yes, I’ll grow Mullein on purpose. The flowers are used in olive oil with some garlic as an anti-septic for ear infection. The leaves are used in teas, To help control mucus in the lungs. It can also be inhaled as a smoke. Herbalist will grow these in their gardens.

[@flyingeaglewoman8682]

Mullein is very invasive, once it starts it send runners everywhere. I’ve dealt with it on a property, best to pull out of the ground and get the root plus its runners.

[@carolwibbels3528]

[@jennierenzi8739]

Great job dude😊

[@gregorybryant6610]

I,m glad to see you get (down and dirty) in this one .A lot of yard men won't clean out flower beds,they just weed whack everything green in sight . They could used some weed and feed on this lawn too,maybe after they get settled in a bit. Really good work in the nick of time.

[@Setiweb]

"Common mullein is a biennial weed. In the first year, the plant grows a basal rosette of furry leaves. And in the second year, the weed develops a tall stem. Common mullein flowers from June to September. With small yellow flowers clustering in a large spike at the top of the stem."

[@voodooqueen322]

Mullein, medicinal herb, good for lung health, stalk grows tall with yellow flowers that is used as an eye wash with antibacterial properties. Leaves were used as TP back in the 1800s 😅.

[@Wickgirl65]

Almost everything we consider a weed was used for one purpose or another before drugs.

[@felicetucker2680]

Definitely Mullin great for clearing mucus from lungs , also cleans lungs of a heavy smoker!

[@tee-steel.0158]

That driveway is a foot wider now. Great job.🇺🇸😇

[@PatL-t4u]

You were sent to this house.Thanks for your kindness & hard work for the homeowner. Filming & editing were great. The yard looked much better. Your thanks to veterans and those serving was exceptional.

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you so much!

[@carolynsimone8647]

@fillslawncare ...I got a message that you wanted to talk to me...what about

[@shawnsourk2448]

Great job on the weeding and picking up clippings leaves a much more professional look.

[@billrobbins5874]

Very nice job! 👍👍

[@gail8494]

“Cowboy toilet paper”ie mullein. Nice job! Thanks for the warm video! You are a god send!

[@Mountainfamily421]

it's a weed. it takes over like crazy in WA and ID it spreads fast by seed. it's also an herb. it's called mullein. ( at least, i think it is.)

[@rachelpiscitell9993]

It does not spread it comes up blooms and then dies beautiful flower. Can get up to five feet tall.

[@Mountainfamily421]

you are not that helpful@@rachelpiscitell9993

[@Ionepeel]

Yeah…. Mullein is gorgeous. Gets WAY tall with a beautiful yellow bloom

[@MarkDrysdale-w7l]

A push mower? With all that yard it would take whole day to mow that yard! I believe that plant in question is a weed for no one would plant next to mature grass. Again kudos to you for coiling the water hose and weeding the beds by hand. You always do a great job and I really enjoy viewing your videos!

[@yycguy8722]

Glad you prerecord these lawn makeovers for us Fill. It is so cold 🥶 here in Calgary Alberta and I miss seeing the green grass. Keep up the fantastic work and stay warm.

[@fillslawncare]

That is me right now too 🥶😂

[@danajhasalvegas5819]

Dandelions in his lawn, In January.... nice family to bless with yard tidy up

[@chuckroelofsphotography]

Nobody does it better!... Love the attention to details

[@richardwalther6229]

Some YT lawn guys would never pull weeds by hand. But you go the extra mile - love your dedication.

[@susancastle1309]

Thank you for mowing their yard and we appreciate his many sacrifices in keeping us safe here at home Again thank you for mowing and maintenance of the yard Awesome

[@timjozwiak2293]

Plant is Mullein. S Bi annual invasive weed. Many people like it because the first year it has a fuzzy rosette (looks like lambs ear). The second year sens up a flower stalk. Flowers a yellow. When it goes to seed...the goldfinches love it. Hope this helps

[@clarencewiles963]

Thumbs up 👍 thank you for your service to the community and this family 😊

[@MikeCookMusic]

13:42 - That plant is a "Great Mullein"...

[@DavidPlumb-b7w]

Enjoy the special touch with hand weeding and respect to the clean finish.

[@acooper3903]

What a great job. The landscape has so much potential for gardeners. New families don’t have much time for gardening though. Thanks for helping this military family.

[@sharonpolk4103]

You have got to be the best dressed Gardner I have ever seen

[@sandymoses6302]

God Bless you too . 🙏

[@ColtonRMagby]

🫡 God bless the Army.

[@sandyloyst1811]

Those crisp edges, the flowerbed makeovers and your famous bagging of all your clippings has turned this cute little charmer into a diamond. Thanks.

[@user-jj4wq2kr2c]

You are a good man. Neat. Polite. Over all good person. I admire you and your work. Bless you and your family.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Always a fine job Fill. Thanks for the gentleman's service from one old x-military guy to another. See you next week.

[@teribelleau137]

The way you Edge, and Bag, ma🎉kes me continue to watch your videos. That was a weed 😊 Love how you leave it so clean. Great job "Fill. Fill's Finishing Touches" ❤😊

[@kathleenahart1331]

Great video. Love how you cleaned up the flower beds. I am a retired vet and I like your attention to detail. This family was renting this house...why didn't that landlord have that lawn mowed and cleaned up? I know that there might be circumstances. You gave them a great start and less worries. God bless.

[@beckylavine5486]

Aw, the infamous rubber hose,

[@valeriepasbrig2864]

Wow, Fill. That was no coincidence that you showed up there. Yes, you are a godsend! Their yard is beautiful now. They have a good starting point. You did good!!

[@lynstukalo176]

A big yes for rolling and storing the water hose!!!

[@deepcow]

Great job. I really like to see you using the bagger. I can’t stand when people leave clippings all over the lawn, makes it look like a pasture instead of a yard.

[@slbarbieri1725]

Most of these commercial mowers have mulching blades. The clippings actually break down and are wonderful fertilizer for the remaining grass

[@jeansimpson2373]

I always love it when you add extra inches to a paved surface 🙂

[@tonym6920]

I’m not a big fam of cutting grass and trimming but a strange feeling of longing came over me watching you work, almost made me forget how I was freezing my butt off right now, lol. Great job! 👍👍. 🥶

[@veronicamissV]

The only thing I could find is that it's some type of foraging weed. It's considered to be edible and medicinal. I mean, it depends on the intent of the homeowner when it comes to foraging weeds, I guess. Great job.

[@janetschram3552]

Thank you for doing this for our Military Family. The house should have already come with a nice yard from the owner (shame on you)

[@terrancemiller8350]

You and the job turned out great. Thank you for your outstanding work, just love the way you turn a pigs ear into a silk purse. Lots of love. Afriend.

[@dkouma1]

That poor camera experienced quite a bit of termoil this time around. LOL Again another wonderful gift to an unsuspecting household. Thank you for blessing this military family.

[@Deepak_Singh1008]

I would like to see the family's reaction in the video. Anyway great job done 👍

13:37 It`s a Verbascum Thapsus (the great mullein, greater mullein or common mullein).

[@barbhenley4692]

I’m sitting here watching and enjoying the green grass. I could just about smell the fresh cut grass. It’s freezing out here in Illinois. You have blessed this family with a wonderful gift. Stay warm and God bless you and your family Fill. 💜💜💜👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏

[@scoobydoo5447]

I’m in northern Illinois. It’s a nice, balmy, -15° out! 😂

[@barbhenley4692]

I’m south west. -4 most of the day.

[@sechristcorinne]

Looks really nice. Thanks for thanking him for his service and thank you for yours. God bless you friend.

[@clydepodvin5026]

I don't know why the neighbors couldn't help this military family out while they were serving our country.

[@Sargy18MPBDE]

I don't know why the landlord doesn't help out. At least provide his renters with the appropriate tools to maintain his rental property.

[@sharonmcneely3471]

The question is why didn't the landlord keep the yard up till he had renters??

[@pattyw7952]

Exactly.

[@user-pt5fb8tu1u]

The neighbors may be struggling as well or, since they’d just moved in, hadn’t had a chance to get to know them yet and have the opportunity to offer help.

[@1944robbo]

It's called lawyers, and trespass laws.

[@jackieostrander9667]

I like how cute and flat the yard is. It's definitely in need of some TLC.

[@jonathanlewis9098]

I have not seen one other person doing lawn care on KZbin that is as thorough and professional as Fill. Good job as always we've come to expect it with you. Never a blade out of place! 👍👍

[@vgorski7545]

Fill, Thank you for transforming this soldier’s lawn. It now looks FANTASTIC! I must admit I really enjoyed watching this today, as right now we have about 8 inches of newly fallen snow that came on top freezing rain. After those events, our temps have dropped to Minus Degrees with a wind chill I DO NOT to think about. Sure there are others in same weather situation. BUT watching this vid full of green trees, sunny blue skies, obviously warm temps and your super lawn care work has taken me away from our bitter winter. Thank You !

[@PamelaVidler]

Thank you for helping this family. My son just came home from 7 months deployment. It's nice that people like you are around. God bless you.

[@karenburkey1737]

That's awesome. He said you were a god send. At the perfect place helping out at th perfect time. Prayers they get everything done. Thank you for all you do and agree thank all military for their service

[@patsyjackson9328]

Always sharp blades on the equipment including shovels and spades,it will help with the jobs you do.

[@neesr13]

There are apps that you can use to identify flora. Would be a good use for your business to have one.

[@xerwpolyxeropoulos7501]

There is more to this property than it looked LOL. Bravo for going a step above, and help a veteran.

[@jettyeminton]

They were weeds in Virginia. Great job Enjoyed. Blessings to you and your family.

Great Transformation Fill ❤

[@robertshrewsbury5067]

Some great people to give relief to. Nice find and help. Your trimming, edging, weeding, etc. added-up to a pleasant appearance, dignity and fitting-in with the neighborhood.

I watch a lot of the overgrown lawn transformations and 9 out of ten times there will be a hose lying somewhere and many times a lawnmower covered with weeds and leaves.

[@jodidavis6595]

What a blessing YOU are Fil. Looked great 👍🏼🇺🇸✝️

[@lianaperez7788]

U must have got tired of shoveling the grass great job

[@SherryTheAFVet]

That looks like Woolly Mullein, per the NC Extension website. Commonly mistaken as Lambs ear, and vice versa. 😊 Good idea to leave it. Great video as always! I really like that you take most of your before and after pictures in the same spot. Do you mark it with chalk? I actually suggested that to SB Mowing!

[@AnthropoidOne]

Fuzzy plant is Mullein. It’s a weed from Europe.

[@chriszurawski2728]

Like always amazing work

[@corinnecameron5604]

Thank you for taking the time to hand pull the weeds.

[@R-Texas]

You are really good at making yards look like lawns, to me there is a difference between the two. The time you take to manicure the edges, rake, pull weeds from beds, excellent job of removing the clippings and beautiful mow job is tops! I really enjoy watching your work. You are such a blessing to those you help out. This was a nice job, we can’t help our veterans out too much! Great job!

[@maclovesplants]

Looks great glad you could help them out.

[@joeanthony9162]

I never get tired of watching you and S&B mowing. Thanks fellas!!
