What do you guys think about Laura’s new pond?

[@niteshimmeror9847]

As a Garden Answer subscriber, it was great to see another's view of the project. You are all just as amazing in this one! Laura has already taken us along on some new plantings around the pond and it is just a work of art. When gifted people come together this is what can be accomplished and it is just fantastic.

[@suchatimeasthis1958]

It is AMAZING!!! You all did a fantastic job, it is gorgeous and i know Laura loves it too!!

[@sheriellis160]

Gorgeous, great teamwork. Love seeing this pond come together from Aquascape's perception. Garden Answer is my favorite channel. She is such an amazing artist with plantings as you guys are with building ponds.

[@littleblackdogs]

It's stunning 🎉

[@joannefuller]

Stunning!

[@eberlinschwinn5634]

Hi Brian. I found your channel after you did Laura’s first installation and have installed a pondless waterfall in my backyard with Aquascape products and your inspirational videos. The products are well made and it’s been three years and no issues. So glad you could return to Laura’s and create this for her and her family. It’s truly a gift. Bless you and your team.

[@exinilda]

Laura and Aaron are just good people. You guys all worked together as one. It was great to see. Thank you so much for sharing from your perspective. It is a beautiful pond. It’s a work of art.

[@phuongphan-mcmanamna3781]

Beautiful. Laura was beaming and gushing the whole time. Never seen her so happy. Great job, Brian and team.

[@CryogenicFire]

Absolutely gorgeous. This one definitely needs a 'one year on' video so that we can see how magical the pond and landscaping look.

[@karenaldridge8307]

Laura’s yard is amazing I love watching her plant. I have watched her channel for years now.

[@rosemarythyme6351]

Laura's countenance glows every time she talks about the pond on Garden Answer! It is a thing of beauty!! Being a subscriber to GA from the condo days, I've loved watching how Laura & Aaron keep pushing the limits in developing their landscape. It makes me wonder what their newest adjacent property will become! It's also fun seeing Laura from a different camera angle as part of the crew. Love your video. Thank you!

[@darlenesgardenandhome]

So amazing! I watch Laura first thing every morning. Now I'm watching your amazing ponds too. What a perfect addition to Laura and Aaron's property.

[@amberlockhart1386]

I knew Laura had your trust when the word “berm” was in the conversation and she not only let it fly but loves it. This pond is something we all dream of having and there’s no better people who deserve it as Laura and Aaron. So happy for them. It’s the Hartley of ponds for sure!!!

[@724ldc]

I am beyond baffled by the amount of coordination it took to get this all planned from all over the USA. Then how effortless it all went together. Your the Dream Team for a reason. The Pond will be a destination spot on this property.

[@brendapatterson7123]

I love that you had Benjamin break ground! I watch Garden Answer, Laura is still just raving about the pond, especially the wonderful experience working with you guys and all the CACs.

[@risalangdon9883]

Brian!!! You guys totally outdid yourselves!!!! Laura & Aaron's pond is SPECTACULAR!!! The pond (work of art), is a wonderful addition to their gorgeous property, it's like the cherry on the top! Well done by everyone!

[@lizshoemaker8713]

My favorite part was watching the same build on two different channels! I absolutely adore Laura, Aaron, the kids and Garden Answer. As a daily viewer there is was so totally awesome to see this huge project that we’ve been teased with come to life! I can’t wait for future collaborations between the two channels! 👏 😍

[@SenterStuff61]

Teary eyed so many times throughout this video! And of course I had already watched all the @GardenAnswer videos of the whole process. What a team! Love you, Brian, and all you do. Love Laura, Aaron, and their whole family! What a treat to get to share this whole process with y’all!

[@gardengirl1944]

Have followed Laura and her husband for years and that following lead me to you. To see you team up together is pure joy. What a brilliant idea and blessing for all your followers. Thank you!

[@wynorawishum5860]

This pond is just awesome. It is perfect for the area. I am a fan of the natural way it blends into the land, like it has always been there. Laura and Aaron are great and truly deserving of such a wonderful pond. They. Bring joy into so many lives and now you have brought some joy into their lives. Thank you Team Aquascape. Brian you are a talented guy and that was a great bunch of talented guys you brought together for this project. Amazing team doing amazing project for an amazing family!!!

[@debbenson5253]

I am a huge fan of Garden Answers, and now a fan of Aquascapes!!! Great job!!!

[@roseyrose9467]

My favorite part is when her daughter says she wants to pet the fish. Teamwork makes the Dream work. Spectacular water feature. I love all the plants and wood features. I am sure Garden Answers will dress it up even more 💚

[@nwyk153]

i love Laura!

[@stephenpmurphy591]

Everyone does Laura & Aaron are such nice people!

[@Blake.Cooper]

I really can't describe how enjoyable this build was to watch!! I am just in awe of the orchestra of talent working together to pull off the best pond I've ever seen!! Congratulations to all! Thanks for taking us along!!

[@ruthagar6707]

The whole team worked so hard and so well together in that heat! It was a pleasure to watch you all work in harmony. I am really impressed!!!

[@allisong2159]

I live vicariously through Laura and Garden Answer! I cried at the end when you said hers was the funnest project yet! I can believe it! Laura and her family are the most generous and caring family so deserving of this special treat! How fun!

[@jenniferbaker5167]

What a transformation of that space. We never thought we'd see something so cool and refreshing on Laura and Aaron's property because of their land and climate. It is absolutely beautiful. What teamwork to put this all together too. Great job to the team! We can't wait for you to go back and maybe put their original water feature back in and we'd also love for you to have a Q&A with them.

[@shellyroman1321]

My favorite part was the look of joy on Laura's face every time she looked at all the amazing people coming together to build her family this amazing oasis ❤️ Bravo Team Aquascape!

[@nancyweaver1157]

Love Samantha with her carrot in hand .😂 it was such a beautiful transformation that I cried . Absolutely spectacular! 😊😊

[@cbvickers4044]

As a Garden Answer member and faithful watcher I loved seeing another aspect of her pond install. We have a Koi pond so this was especially fascinating to watch. The GA crew and projects are my favorite entertainment! Thank you Brian and crew.

[@denniscaldwell8193]

Thank You for doing this for our favorite Garden Answer family. If anyone in the world deserves this it is Laura she is the best. Loved how you all worked together to make that area so special.

[@stephanypasnin1474]

Ive been watching Lauras channel for about a year now. Its good to see Laura without a camera enjoying this. You guys did a amazing job.

[@catherineengle4196]

I was y'alls biggest cheerleader...lol. Every video Laura would post I was telling her how blessed she was to have such wonderful and talented former artists of year working on her pond. I also expressed that her family was fixing to enter a journey like no other in living the Aquascape lifestyle. God bless y'all. You picked a family who is deserving of such a blessing. 😊

[@KristaHarrisSB]

Amazing project, we need a sequel to see how it looks when all the plants are in and established!

[@missygilly9917]

So happy that Laura from “Garden Answer” listed all the people who came to create the pond on her property! I jumped over quickly to see & subscribe to your channel, too, and others! Such an amazing viewpoint from what you recorded during the process! It’s hard to fathom the work of so many coming together, yet it did! We all know Laura will work her magic and plant up the pond for her & her family to enjoy for years to come! Just amazing to watch the progress! Kudos to you & your team.

[@jenniferunderwood3472]

Your work on Laura's pond was amazing! True masters of your craft.

[@sharonseal9150]

I came here because of Garden Answer, but I subscribed so I can continue to see the amazing projects you work on. Would love to have a pond someday, but in the meantime I will enjoy these lovely creations "long distance". What a beautiful and natural looking pond and wetlands you have created, and it will only get better as the plants settle in and Laura adds her finishing touches!

[@user-xd5tv8zs8s]

It was so cool to watch this from your perspective. Garden Answer follower here and I just have to share that the whole thing was just so positive and I see why. You all brought the vibe with you and joined it with Laura and Aaron's. "I just wanna hug you." Yep, sharin' the love of what you do. Thanks for this. Made my morning.

[@denisedicks9342]

Like a symphony or a perfect dance! I am a new subscriber to your channel, I was brought here by Garden Answer. After watching several of your video's this week, this pond is my favorite. I love the evergreens and grasses that add some interest and intimacy to this private space. Brian you are such a thoughtful artist! I had no idea that you can swim in these rec ponds. Gives me something to think about. :)

[@trayvixk4642]

I've been a subscriber to this channel since Laura's project with them a few years ago too. Really recommend the videos of Brian's tour of garden ponds and favorite koi pond because that's how I'd imagine what Laura's pond is gonna look like after the plants have established. It's amazing.

[@cathymikequimbyquimby7315]

I always say that everything Laura touches ends up so beautiful. This was a brilliant collaboration and ended up stunning. Congratulations!

[@gsxgrl]

It was so anticipated by so many and it is perfect! I found Laura through Greg and Brian years ago with the pondless build. Y'all make life more fun! I'm in year 3 of Living the Aquascape Lifestyle so I know how happy Laura is! Beautiful work!!❤❤❤❤

[@lyndawhitty-xx1nv]

It was so neat to see a different perspective of Laura's space. You all did a spectacular job with your pond. She is so happy!! What a gift to her. I hope you pull her in on other projects. Thank 's to Laura for introducing me to your channel.

[@marybeth4002]

This journey was so much fun to watch. Having watched G&A for a few years now, I was so glad that Laura turned over the reins and in turn her confidence in you and the entire team on designing this awesome pond. The collaboration of ALL these wonderful people was fun and so emotional to watch. Nice job, Brian. Nice job.

[@hulagirl3]

I’ve been waiting years for Garden Answer to put in a decent sized pond. I’ve watched you and the other Aquascape pros work your magic for several years, too. I always had hope the groups would do a collab., which did happen a couple of years ago(small but beautiful water feature). I was still happy. But, THIS, this is E P I C in the Garden Answer world!!! Mahalo for taking us on a beautiful journey with this pond project. New home, hen house, acquired properties, The Hartley, flower/she shed, multi gardens…then this pond. Ahhhhh! The happiness I feel is beyond measure. Again, mahalo for taking good care of Laura, Aaron and ‘ohana. Now…if only they would put a webcam by the pond (hint hint 😂) so that I (or we) can enjoy it anytime, too. Aloha from WA State 🌺🎶🌦️🌲🏔️🪵💜

[@jenniferschnieder6316]

Awesome design & work Brian & everyone. Laura & Aaron's pond is Spectacular!

[@OasisofTransformation5627]

An Oasis of Transformation! What an absolute joy it is to watch the Dream Team at work! My favourite part is Laura running out of words😃 This tells me "tonnes" of what this project is and looks in real life. Blessings! ...from the Land Down Under.

[@jltest5230]

Laura is the Queen of Gardens. Love her channel

[@corleeashley8016]

Wow!!! Just WOW!!!!! I am so happy for Laura, Aaron and all of their family!!! What a blessing to have such skilled craftsmen and artists come together to create this incredibly beautiful addition to their home and garden!!! No doubt they will be enjoying this for years to come and I am grateful for all of you to share this experience with us.

[@GardeningSpirit]

Much respect!!! I'm here over from being a steadfast Garden Answer fan, and we've watched Laura, Aaron and your whole teams do this project but seeing it from this angle hits different. It's incredible!! Well done guys, what an amazing oasis they have!

[@LULC0759]

What Laura & her team have done on their property is absolutely amazing…what you & your team have done there with this pond is jaw dropping spectacular ❤

[@betsyschaffitzel1044]

First off, phenomenal video and great shots! Wow! Music too! You are truly amazing at making the ground come alive! What a vision you all have Brian and Chris!! The best part of Laura’s pond are all the different sections but most of all the bulging boulders and the naturalized look! It’s been there for years it appears! True art! Thanks for taking us along!🙏💦

[@christinahand973]

It was amazing to watch this come together on Laura’s channel and a real treat to revisit the whole project here. Laura is loving it! And “Dream Team” is the right name for this hardworking and so creative group of professionals!

[@cloudie9druoid172]

Stunning job and blown away how fast it was. The trees and plants made it look like it’s been there for years, unbelievable

[@angelwolfe6728]

This was an awesome collaboration!! Just a bunch of awesome people doing what they love ❣️

[@Jan-R-]

As GA subscriber for more than 5 years, this is a monumental step for Laura & Aaron to include a bigger water feature with your Aquascape team, Brian. The notion of a hidden pond among the berm from what was a very unused flat corner of their home is purely AWESOME. The joy and curiosity on Benjamin & Samantha’s face make it all more special. Great team and collaboration from your side, Brian. When you 2 positive thinking parties together, you get magic 🥰

[@tishas.2945]

What a lucky gal!! Absolutely beautiful job everyone!! Best part was seeing everyone coming together for the wonderful family. Laura has such a wonderful vibe & is such a hard worker. What a treasure she will have making memories with her family.❤️ Great job everyone! 😊

[@annquirke4008]

This build was one of the best I’ve seen. What an amazing bunch of guy’s all working together. It was incredible. As a follower of Laura & Aaron’s channel, we knew this water installation was happening. The build up & excitement was intense. I could not believe how much you all achieved in 3 days. I was blown away, as were Aaron & Laura, & especially the kids. They are going to remember & enjoy it for many years to come. What an amazing team effort, you guy’s are awesome. 👏🏻😁💦

[@multifaceted1051]

I've followed Garden Answer for some time and know that Laura likes to work on projects independently. That she willingly gave over the reins to you tells how much she trusts you. I'm delighted that you gave her the secret garden space she wanted. The entire pond area is fantastic. The way you incorporated the boulders and contoured the berms makes it seem as though we are in "the hills" near their town which she talks about. You all made this feel natural. So beautiful!

[@barbarawitt9989]

Epic! We love Laura Aaron and the kids!!

[@jslabrat]

MY FAVORITE GARDEN SHOW AND POND TEAM COME TOGETHER, FINALLY! I've been hoping and waiting for this since the pondless install. I am eager to see how her pond evolves. Brian and the dream team are true artist.😍

[@adelealtieri1434]

Laura and Aaron this is just a fabulous video of all the work it took to put this beautiful space together. You and the kids will enjoy this for years to come. Thank you for bringing us along❤❤

[@colleenscottcarmello5103]

** I like how the fish looked back at Laura like 'Thank you' when she so gently placed him in the water. wow.. just wow. She is really tapped into nature on so many levels. What a great, amazing, job you guys did building this masterpiece!!

[@thewizardoftod]

I watched this on The Garden Answer channel and it made me cry then and it had me crying again absolutely gorgeous . She deserves every bit of this, she has and does work so hard. Bless you Laura.

[@violetamayer6298]

This was such an AWESOME, AMAZING, SPECTACULAR project. All of you guys are truly wonderful artists 👏👏👏👏

[@barbararichmond499]

I loved it all, but knowing where to place all the rocks so the water flows down and around them and the extra addition of the trees and tree stumps in the water, it’s amazing. Can’t wait to see what Laura adds to make it more amazing. You guys do amazing work.

[@LitlPoot]

It's perfection ... and, yes, the way everyone worked together to make it happen was a beautiful stie to behold. Well done !!!!

[@alanFconrad]

It's been so awesome following the progress of Laura and Aaron's Project....Love it !

[@BritInvLvr]

I follow Laura’s channel and watched the whole process. I was so excited to see the beautiful area develop. Everyone was so professional and friendly.

[@mariankay6482]

EPIC! I started following y'all when you created the pondless waterfall at GA. It was beautiful and so peaceful. I hated to see that one go but I know they have plans to use it somewhere else on the property. I love the way you did this one. It looks like it belongs and that is so important in any space but their space is different because it is high desert and you nailed it but still created a gorgeous waterfall with the rocks and giant stumps and such. Absolutely beautiful work that you and the aquascape "Dream Team" did. It will be hard to top this one! ❤

[@northernlight13]

Wow, you did an amazing job. The team is extremely talented and everyone is so nice. You brought tears to my eyes when you said how everyone enjoyed working on this specific project. We need more people like you guys. The pond of course is out of this world. Thank you for sharing the process.

[@rhondavanness1540]

I loved this video! I almost got more of the process from this video than I did from Garden Answer's 4 videos. Excellent!

[@shirleysenkler781]

My favorite part is Benjamin doing the first scoop of dirt. That was so kind.

[@its_so_edna]

Love seeing Laura crack open a cold beer. She's usually doing all the work.

[@susanb1511]

That was such a wonderful collaboration to watch on both channels. Such a beautiful outcome.

[@rightontrackk9training]

I am here because of Laura from Garden Answer and are now a fan of yours as well. This was an epic build and teamwork. ❤ I wish we could have you build me a pond here in metro Detroit.

[@mireillewilson5911]

Laura and Aaron are amazing people!! You guys did an awesome job on their pond!! I've been loving all the pond updates!!

[@michelesimpson2237]

Brought a tear to my eye. Great people great pond. Awesome job everyone

[@monicahennessy5648]

So happy to see this pop up in my feed. I am a regular viewer of Laura's channel but was away on vacation when she was posting the step-by-step progress videos. I love this summary, start to finish. And I love your drone work and cool music too! Your style is "epic"!

[@julieofidaho]

Love love love what you all did for Laura and Aaron. Love the rocks. So happy to live in Boise, an hour from her parent’s garden center.

[@lindapetro5594]

I’ve been waiting for your video to post on Laura’s and Aaron’s pond (“Garden Answer” channel). I loved watching her three videos of the installation. Love both channels! 🥳👏👍❤️

[@kuhlbreezegardens8663]

Laura was right. Your video gives a different perspective. Great job dream team! Ps, I don't believe I have ever seen Laura drink a beer on Garden Answer, only cocktails. In addition to the awesome project, I love seeing you both celebrate a long day of hard work with a cold one. ❤

[@terresiagregg9326]

The pond is absolutely gorgeous Laura was so lucky you all came n build her a majestic pond

[@donnahanssen9791]

My favorite part is just seeing how well everyone worked together and the pond is absolutely amazing!

[@maryanns6182]

Started following you guys after the 1st waterfall feature you did for Laura and have been continuously blown away by your work. From a Chicago native to now North Carolinian, I’ve been planning and saving for one in my yard for a couple years now! Just stunning, as all of your projects always are!!😍😍😍

[@jimmywong1618]

I m crying happily to watch this! Sorry for my sentimental! You guys are ROCK!!!

[@greenrockgarden2851]

What a collaboration of talent! This is art! I enjoyed watching all of you get this done. ❤️

[@andreabenson2491]

Mama Mia I watched from start to finish on Garden Answer channel and now here!! It is an awesome result to such a wonderful group of talented professional people coming together on this project!! ❤️ Love the outcome!👍👏😊

[@tylerk.7947]

That pond turned up dang gorgeous. One of your best builds I’ve seen

[@jenniferkessener1111]

Thank you for making an awesome pond for Laura and Aaron! It is one of my favorites ever. I think because it fits with the West coast mountain ethetics! It looks so natural.

[@janedodson7583]

This pond was amazing! Can’t believe the transformation. Great team!

[@sweetkoiyo]

What an amazing pond build. That is truly a work of art! 👏

[@AvatarPrimus]

I love how Laura and Aaron's pond turned out, I'm subscribing to your channel guys! I´m speachless, Great job! Greetings and blessings from Sonora, Mexico.

[@lisatipton5547]

The spirt and teamwork is off the chart!

[@lizmerritt2148]

It’s so amazing to see what goes into a pond! Watched your video and all of Garden Answers videos too. Bravo!!!

[@CanadianPermacultureLegacy]

What a gorgeous pond. I can't wait to follow on her channel to see how she develops the planting.

[@shellyhaynes5224]

This is a stunning pond...you guys did a great job. I have watched Garden Answer for years ..I really like this family. You asked what was our favorite part of this project? For me it was the fun and camaraderie you all showed. In fact, it brought me to tears a few times. Seeing a team of people working together like this is what we need more of. Thank you!

[@janevt.2280]

Thanks for bringing us along on this epic pond build, it was a genuine pleasure to watch. Congrats Laura, Aaron, Benjamin and Samantha! Enjoy! 🥂💦

[@deniseaudette4401]

Absolutely LOVE the pond. Congratulations, Laura, Aaron, Benjamin, and Samantha Grace. You have such a magnificent team that worked together so cohesively!! By the way, I just love the music that used used in the video, especially near the end - it kept rising in volume and was just so climatic - perfect ending :)

[@kaylac3367]

Brian, this was absolutely magical! Amazing Amazing Amazing how this team of people from all over came and worked together seamlessly! Each one are to be commended. It really looked like they were all having fun. The creativity is spectacular from everyone! Each one is blessed with special gifts! Thanks for sharing this. 😊

[@maryvallas772]

❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️ Bravo!!!! I've been waiting so long for this epic collaboration, and it was just as awesome as I knew it would be! Of course, Laura has already added even more decorations! She is SOOOOOO thrilled with this pond, and we are thrilled for her! Fantastic job, Brian, and cheers to all the CACs that helped! ❤ I hope you guys can come back and revisit it in the future to see how it evolves!

[@addiechristensen1218]

This was AWESOME!! Favorite part was how involved Laura`s family was and how many people came together to do this!!

[@beckyboopz1]

Been following Laura for some time now, and my goodness, you all did a fantastic job for her!!! I can’t even believe it all happened in a matter of days - unbelievable and totally amazing!!

[@susiejimenez7998]

You guys did an amazing job together! Laura has a great eye for creating beautiful spaces in her surroundings. To see a vision go into her space that wasn’t her creation was fun to see come into fruition. The final results were amazing! My husband & I cannot wait to do a water feature in our space now! You guys are amazing! Thanks for sharing!

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

Hi Brian. I hope you are well. You and the Crew did a phenomenal job. That Pond is Absolutely Awesome. It might be an idea to name that Pond; The Willow Pond seeing as there is a big Willow Tree there. 😉 Like 1886 is now up to say thankyou very much for sharing. Take care, Sir. Keep an eye on Greg. He might end up lost in that property. 😉 Have a great Week. 👍🏼🙂👍🏼❤️

[@christycottles3875]

All of it. Especially the children helping and playing in it. Love y’all and garden answere team. God bless you all.
