I Planted an Over-the-Top Heuchera Planter! 😆🙌💚// Garden Answer

[@jezo2008]

I know this is gonna sound crazy but with all the craziness going on, it feels so good to just watch your videos and quiet the noise. Laura and Aaron, please keep the videos coming. XOXO

[@angiehorn3280]

Yes, I agree! I hope they realize how much joy they bring to us.

[@ChristopherEPineda]

JeZori lol yes!! I was just saying that.

[@mariankay6482]

Yes! It was so good to leave the morning news and go outside, sit on my porch with my coffee, listen to the birds twerping and watch this blog with Laura and Aaron. That sweet smile of Laura's is more beautiful than any plants she has ever put out! Such a sweet spirit and sooo relaxing! It's beyond words!!!! We are all truly blessed to have these ppl visit our homes so often! Yea!!! 😍🌱❤🙂🌹

[@charlenegarcia5144]

AGREED

[@ja-uh9gz]

Ditto what JeZori said...this is very calming. I enjoy your videos and ideas! Thank you! :)

[@emilyr.6542]

This might sound crazy, but when I started this video I teared up. Didn’t realize how much I needed some normalcy in my day. As a nursing student and a caregiver in our hospitals, self care is at the top of my priorities with the threat of the virus among us. Thank you for being apart of my self care. I love everything you do! If you ever hold another garden tour I’ll be there. Just couldn’t this year, you planned it right before finals 🤓

[@n.w.414]

Emily R. Thank you for all you and all medical staff do. Please be careful and safe. My daughter is a lab tech assistant so also concerned about her.

[@robingrunzweig1880]

thank you for being on the front lines during this crisis and other times... please be careful!!

[@talitha5OG]

I felt the same. I’m a nurse and had just gotten home from a long shift. I normally watch early in the mornings before leaving for work. Gardening and Laura has a way of keeping me calm and relaxed...a way to unwind from a demanding job. Thank you Garden answer for being an inspiration and a blessing! I was just thinking 🤔, if I get quarantined at home, I can get a lot gardening projects done😂. Stay safe and healthy everyone and God bless!

[@shareejacobs6434]

Emily R. God bless you!

[@janetsmith6716]

I want to add my gratefulness also, for you and the medical community for all the sacrifices you are making during this crisis.

[@playininmyyard]

I was waiting on the magic...I just knew Aaron was gonna have you on double screen working both pots simultaneously but the "walk by and done" was cool.

[@HowsItGrowing]

Playin' In My Yard I think they have a designated video editor now since projects are so frequent and time consuming.

[@suep4999]

Playin' In My Yard I agree. That dissolve with her walking past the fully planted pot really caught my eye. Very cool!!!

[@lucieengen7046]

I believe Aaron is still very much involved with the editing but he does have help 😁.

[@SweetStuffOnMonarchLane]

Laura you have really opened my eyes to considering foliage color. It used to be something I never thought about (it was all about the blooms)! I'm even starting to like chartreuse... something I NEVER thought I would hear myself say! Thank you for doing what you do, you're the best!

[@christinebeames2311]

Sweet Stuff hi , they propagate sooo easily from offsets in spring , this rejuvenates them , when they are leggy just replant deeper ,the l8me one is most prone to rust spots , but not the others , have a look at heucharaholics Website in england , wonderful

[@SweetStuffOnMonarchLane]

@@christinebeames2311 Thank you for the information! I'm planning on going to the garden center soon to get some for a project this spring/summer. We still have snow on the ground. =( I'll have to check that channel out too! I wonder how often you have to do that? I hope they're not TOO much maintenance as I'm getting older! Lol!

[@tvcat3665]

I wondered how the green plants in the center were so high. Kept them in the pots to give height, very clever.

[@jovannayanez9568]

Love you videos!!! Can you please do a video on zone 9 planting please🙏🏻🙏🏻 I live in Las Vegas so need something that loves sun

[@mrsmac1974]

I did this a couple of years ago, only my pot was smaller. I managed to cram 4 deer-resistant heuchera's in the pot and it was so pretty. They were happy and even flowered. I was so thrilled. Apparently, so were the deer. One morning I went out to find everything had been chomped down to stubs. I cried and laughed. At least I have photos. 😂🤣

[@radhikam2401]

That edit where the second pot filled up - wow! That pot is stunning. The leaf detail is beautiful.

[@maynardgreenhouse]

I’m such a foliage girl 🌿so this makes my heart sing. Thank you so much for this beautiful distraction to all the events happening. 💕😘

[@maynardgreenhouse]

Gidget I’ve been propagating a lot of begonias lately and heucheras are pretty easy too. Easy to grow but you have to watch for black vine weevils( grub) bc they LOVE them.

[@maynardgreenhouse]

Gidget I know it’s always something. My FIL who was a farmer would say I plant 1/3 or the animals, 1/3 for the bugs and 1/3 to me to sell.

[@ozbuncandlesupply]

I love watching you two . Our 400 lavender plants didn’t work out last year . You motivate me to not give up 😃

[@loloholmes2793]

Ouch!! Forgive me but I'm picturing a lavender field in France so I feel compelled to ask; did u have crop insurance on them or not? I would think that many lavender would be a possible business venture & could possibly be insured just like we insure crops in the Midwest... Call your Ins Agent if u haven't already & ask about crop insurance & your Representative & ask if the US Dept of Ag has any subsidies available for Herb Farming.... you never know unless you ask. if you already have, please excuse my inquiry & suggestion.

[@ozbuncandlesupply]

Thank you for suggesting and sharing that information. 😃Unfortunately the 400 pods in the trays were damaged prior to planting due to shipping . The company was nice enough to replace them . The wet spring we had here last year was absolutely crazy . The soil was pure mud to start the beds , therefore allowed the young 2in pods to not thrive . Meanwhile we did transplant like company said to do . Propagated a lot of them so we will keep our fingers crossed 🤞

[@teriharmon4764]

Laura, with the “things” the way they are going and school and events shutting down, I would love to see some kid friendly garden activities!

[@rachelhall4808]

Teri Harmon she’s got fairy gardens for days and a really cute fairy garden with a cute road for hot wheels cars!

[@Back_Board826]

Good idea! :) We need healthy boredom busters. Hah

[@FlowerPatchFarmhouse]

I have a ton of Heucheras a friend gave me and this looks like a fun way to use them. I love spur of the moment "impractical" projects. It is how I fly. :) I was in my greenhouse yesterday starting more seeds and it felt great in there at 80 degrees with it being 65 outside. Of course, being March we will get snow this weekend but soaking up the warm sunshine for a day was a treat.

[@henzzz_]

That looks like a bunch of colorful lettuce. It looks amazing!!!

[@carlaradke4066]

I was thinking that the green one looked like a huge lettuce!

[@kristinaswanson6966]

Love the idea of putting something in planters that can also be used in the landscape. Would love to see more ideas for that. Money saving and still looks great. Not sure if it’s the music in the videos or if it’s Laura’s positive attitude. Much appreciated these days - thank you!

[@kristitullus]

Beautiful! And having the containers a bit further apart makes the entrance look more welcoming and balanced.

[@craigodem3815]

Her taste is absolutely impeccable. Always on point!

[@JM-zh1vy]

Beautiful arrangement 👍💚🌿♥️💜💗

[@annam9741]

@ 50 seconds in it looks as if there is a mouse next to you for over a minute -RUSSELL where are you?! Your videos are entertaining in more ways than one! lol

[@Maeday-oh1nw]

Laura and Aaron do it again. I Love those containers!! as well as the plantings!!!! Thank you both so much for continuing to provide such great quality content and information.

[@laurenwellman2516]

Laura you have kindled my interest for plants with beautiful foliage. Thank you! I never knew plants could be so beautiful just for their foliage. 🥰

[@krofar7195]

I took the plunge into drip irrigation bc of these videos. Bought two kits this week, one for landscaping and one for patios. Super excited to get it going! Seems way easier than I thought.

[@janejohnson6411]

The planters alone are beautiful. Those heucheras are amazing and the colors are gorgeous. They make such a beautiful display for this time of year.

[@j.m.7056]

YES! We don't always need a thriller. This is gorgeous and elegant!

[@ChristopherEPineda]

This is a nice break from the coronavirus madness, thanks Laura. ❤️

[@lesliebray8114]

I absolutely love love love heucheras !!!!! They have the most beautiful foliage and look great anywhere !!!! The potting was a great idea !!!! The flowers are dainty and make the plants most interesting ! I will be adding more of these beauties to my flower gardens !!!!

[@katieeckel7685]

Good tip on the apple twist. I planted one last year under a tree facing west and that afternoon sun was just too much. Live and learn!

[@kendallricker9633]

You have the spring planting bug. It is very contagious...I suffer from it myself but like you stemmed off the illness with a spring planting project of my own. Loved the video and yes the plants look great.

[@pamnapier-uhl1362]

First those urns are my favorite! I thought for sure you would use the centerpiece but I continue to be amazed by your creativity!! Love the idea of keeping them in the nursery pot in certain situations. Inspiration?? YES!!

[@cutazabutton]

I found you just in time. Watching this again today, but I have worked in my garden everyday during the Pandemic. It has truly saved my life. It’s like nothing bad is in the world when I have my hands in dirt. You have lent me so much inspiration by watching how you create. Sending love and can’t wait to hear about your little girl arriving!

[@n.w.414]

I loved the editing speed where the leaves just bounced so beautifully when she was planting.

[@Ash-xx5zd]

Passion of gardening is so obvious. U dont treat it as a chore or a necessity for an end goal. You truly enjoy the process and that's why people are inspired by you and that the ACT of gardening is your expertise. 100% enjoyed this video. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 love. ...and we love future laura. Retrospect is always necessary. 🥳🥳🥳

[@CoraBlu080605]

Great idea. My local nursery carry a riot of colorful huechera and they’re priced to sell. Thanks from the inspiration.

[@AnnaDunlap247Rolltide]

Ooo that's fun! I love them 😍

[@carolbeatty2468]

Yes coffee with Laura and beautiful plants what a great way to start the day!!!!I really want to get some Heuchera for our playground this year and I am glad you went back and clarified the light requirement as I think I have a better spot for the Apple Twist if I can get one. I love to see how excited you are when planting new things and the color on all of these plants is just amazing!!! Thank you for being here!

[@jillcochran9794]

I didn’t even know what a heuchera was, before watching you 3 years ago. I’m in love with those beautiful leaves! Also, love you rockin the new garden Vans!!

[@SisterChristianZ]

Gorgeous! Aaaaah!

[@anitahadley2871]

Keeping it in its pot was the perfect solution. Mine over wintered in the ground okay but are not as lush as those. I hope they will fill out quickly!

[@marcyperry684]

You have made me fall in love with so many plants. I liked Heuchera before but I’m in love now. Thank you for your talented creations.

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

You introduced my to Heucheras and I love growing them! They are so versatile. Those containers are dreamy. 😊💚

[@judithjohnson2111]

So happy you got those containers. Perfect spot for them. What a knockout welcoming entrance. Love the colors. Your so clever Laura. Really different. Gorgeous. btw it is such a mental health break to see you every morning. I feel your JOY. Thank you. God bless💚

[@camicri4263]

They look absolutely gorgeous Laura! I have to say that besides the containers my very favorite is the dark foliage one... I like them all but that's my fave. 🤗🤗💜💜

[@joycetaggart3123]

I just love those Heuchera's together. I can imagine you just pinch yourself with your beautiful home and go out to a job that is just what you want and it is yours. Then of course your little family. I so enjoy you everyday and look forward to seeing you. Joyce

[@klcrist]

I bought 4 Carnival Limeade Heuchera last spring and planted them in an area by the patio under the deck in my backyard. Through the summer growing season I noticed the leaves on each of the plants wilting and dying off. Little by little I lost all but one of the plants. After doing some research online I believe the plants succumb to weevils. Have you had any experience with weevils eating the roots of your Heuchera plants? This has not discouraged me - the one remaining plant is doing very well, and once the garden center near me has more of the Carnival Limeade Heuchera in stock this spring I plan to replant. I like the bright pop of apple green around my patio.

[@Forrest2088]

Laura in a video last week: I'm not going to keep flanking walkways with pots. I like the trend of grouping them. Laura in two videos since then: flanking walkways with pots 😆 Love your work, though!! 🥰

[@maryanntaman4670]

Laura such a great idea - plant in the container and then out in the garden later in the season - two looks, one plant, and you don't feel so rushed to get everything in the ground at the beginning of the season. You got me hooked on Heucherellas & Heucheras to go along side my hostas! To you both keep up the great work and take time to sit back and enjoy your hard work.

[@jewelbaby9310]

It look like a water colour painting, so pretty and pure 💜

[@sue2611]

I'm team Aaron on this one. I find the containers without thrillers more attractive.

[@chauntem.8841]

Absolutely love it! I love plants that bring this much color without flowers. Those plants being wider, lower than the fence & off the step looks more appealing than compared to before. It wasn't bad I love the black ones but this just catches the eye more.

[@sandyrobinson6490]

The colours look amazing against the grey pots!

[@Spriff]

Always a pleasure to watch these videos! Nice transition work, btw, Aaron! Seeing Laura walk from right to left and suddenly there was a filled pot was a really cool visual. Thank you both so much for all that you do for the gardening community!

[@nokesvillehaunt915]

So with the change of known light requirements, will you be using the euphorbia? I guess time and temps will tell. Thanks for bringing joy to us in a world that has so much unknown. I appreciate the calmness that plantings bring with them and the fun and so much joy you bring too. 🙏 😊

[@LB-vl3qn]

Those urns are so gorgeous you could leave them empty, but I love the way you planted them. That shape of urn looks so good without a thriller and the heucheras are so fluffy and lush on their own. They remind me of lettuce and always make me want a salad. Great color combination. Well done! ~ Lisa

[@sherylf80021]

Loved the “future Laura” tip. Thank you!

[@proudcc]

this is such a unique idea !!! Who would have thought of using heuchera like this !!! And it turns out very beautiful too

[@sumeraandzac424]

beautiful, beautiful colours and foliage! They look so pretty at that entryway. That tip on creating height in the container is so cool - I'm always learning so much from your videos, thank you!

[@shirleysenkler781]

A heuchera bouquet, this looks gorgeous. Thanks for the cut in regarding sun in relation to the colors os the heuchera. I have mostly dark leafed ones in my garden. My favorite is one called Midnight Rose, its a purple with tiny pink spots on the leaves. For any twin cities gardeners check Bachmans for this one, it's really gorgeous.

[@chargerandlightening]

I think these might just be my favorite you’ve ever done. That. Is. Gorgeous 😍

[@DCT14]

Beautiful urns, gorgeous plants! And Laura, I see that you are sporting your new sneaks 😊

[@MaggYela]

U r the best, the taste on colours, texture, pots, estructure n planning u do is impecable, I’ve seen other bloggers n they lack at least 2 or 3 pieces of info we all need to be successful. U r THE BEST, u r blessed. The happiness u give to all of us and the hope and faith in the beauty of planting, the patience and faith is a huge addition to everyone lives. Thank u

[@Tsb702]

Love that design!!! One REQUEST: When planting, will you please do more filming at the angle of 5:17 so that we can see how the roots/rootball should be situated and surrounded by soil?

[@allysonh6410]

YES

[@florneiers5651]

Thank you for the tip on sun requirements. I have the green ones under my trees in large containers and they never faded. Our Winter here in NC was so mild they kept the color. I just cleaned them and they are growing fast. I have other varieties with the dark leaves mostly in shade and they do very well. It works for me to keep them protected from the sun during the Summer. Your containers are lovely. Can’t wait to see your tulips on the ground and the ones you have in containers. As always,great work!🌸🌸🌸

I love this arrangement and the urns are gorgeous, I want them! The patchwork look is so unique. I'm new to heucheras and have only started planting them in the last couple of years. They are so pretty and I appreciate the tip about the lighter they are the less tolerant to sun. Aaron does such a great job on the effects in the videos. I agree with some of the other comments, your videos are a breath of fresh air in these times we are all going through right now. Keep them coming!
