Picking up annuals! 😍🌿🙌// Garden Answer

[@hayleywise7403]

Thank you for taking us along on your road trip :) And again, we get to enjoy the genius of Aaron & his drone and editing skills! (The way you filmed, using the drone, the truck & trailer pulling into the growing facility...It's those small things that add up to make your videos so visually appealing!)

[@JudyCraigDexterME]

i agree with Hayley... thanks for bringing us along on your family plant adventure! Loved the drone footage too!!!

[@annpayne1045]

Hi, Laura! Thank you for touching on the topic of the incredible process of growing annuals in a greenhouse. I work at a nursery in Iowa and I must admit I become a little frustrated when customers question the prices of plants. If they only knew what is involved in growing that beautiful plant from seed (soil, starter trays, pots, fertilizer, fungicides, pesticides, and not to mention the time and labor, shipping, and the costs of keeping them looking nice at the nurseries)! I’m honestly surprised the price is so economical!! It would be awesome if, for a future video, you could explain this process more thoroughly at a greenhouse/grower. Thank you for your informative videos. We sometimes link to them on our Facebook page for our customers to view. Have a wonderful spring and summer!

[@peachesmonroe251]

Aaron... the aerial shots! 👏🏻 the editing! 👏🏻

[@kathymontoya1710]

I was thinking the same thing! Love it!

[@terryklemesrud758]

This sure was a treat!! We have over 15 inches of snow here in Central Minnesota so to see some color was really nice!!! Thanks!!! And to see Benjamin, too, was sure a plus!!! He's such a cutie!!!

[@rebeccaplowman6367]

Fun fact: That terrifying mountain of a lawn is property donated by Simplot as a Governor's mansion in 2004. But Otter never moved in, and the cost of keeping up the landscape eventually led the state to return the property to the Simplots in 2013. I honestly don't know why they don't plant the slopes with some perennials and native plants. That lawn is terrifying!!

[@sealightful]

Thank you Laura I get so inspired by watching your channel your enthusiasm for planting , gardening is so contagious . I’ve started back to planting on my patio this year being inspired by you ...😍😻🖐💐😎thank you

[@lovinglife8097]

Annuals are beautiful.. I love planting them.. they flowers from start to finish..

[@debbiebunch7941]

Loved viewing this video. I just started working at a local nursery for the busy season here in NC and love it. I often use what I've learned from your videos to help customers make decisions. Proven winners is a must in my yard. They out perform other plants by far for me. Everyone here lost a lot of their shrubs this winter including the nurseries, so it's been crazy busy. I've been trying to learn more about shrubs which is what a lot of folks use here. Love little Benjamin in the videos and seeing how much he has grown. Keep those videos coming and I'll be watching and taking notes.

[@kathleensmith5851]

Awesome aerial drone shots - I love all your videos . Baby boy is looking quite handsome!! Have a blessed spring.

[@CoraBlu080605]

Next year could you tour a nursery and show more colors. I understand this was for your yard, however we as consumers would love a jump on our annual shopping. Seeing these plants close up in mass helps tremendously. I personally have purchased more from your suggestions than any other gardening show including PBS shows. I appreciate you sharing your time and knowledge. The family's cuteness is an added bonus.

[@lynseylawton-roberts3768]

Oh my word, such a beautiful area...breathtaking xx

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

I just love it when you show us the plants you are planting in your landscape, and the green house was just breath taking, I live in Idaho Falls and always get so excited when the green houses get their plants ready to purchase, I love filling my pots and flower beds with annuals and perennials, and love the idea of more container flowers since I don't have a lot of yard space, once again Benjamin is so adorable and this video was so helpful and inspiring, thank you again Laura and Aaron and of course Benjamin!

[@katherinecornette5315]

Kinda cool! I was born in Boise and spent many summers there & Spokane area. Love your passion and your sweet family!

[@seriouslyreally5413]

Nice. My local garden center flats used to come with free hitchhikers. Started to plant my own pots from seed.

[@Alex-ik1rl]

The plants are great, Benjamin is totally adorable.

[@kaylabayla7202]

That drone footage 👌🏼😍 Tfs!

[@marissa4224]

I have toured a few garden facilities here in NJ and NY because of my work and i have to agree with you. It is so inspiring. I cant to go out and start planting. Still too cold here 🌾🌼🥀🌳

[@annriggle1945]

im jealous of anything GREEN! Still SNOWING and ICE in upstate NY.

[@michaelmase5498]

Awesome! We have 200 finished containers on order from Pleasant View in NH. Can't wait until they are ready.

[@carolkhoo4129]

This is such a fun yet educational video. Hope you bring us on the next trip. Thank you.

[@Eram.Abbasi]

Wow the aerial view was awsome 😃

[@lianepetersoncampbell3238]

Good drone footage, thanks for taking us along 👍😊

[@shazak4748]

Hi Laura, thank you for the lovely video love your videos always look forward to watching them. Very beautiful shots with the drone Aaron and so nice to see Benjamin. 🌷🌼🌸

[@MsQtn]

I enjoyed today's video immensely... the aerial view was a nice touch. Good job, Aaron! My Garden has never looked better because of you. Thanks so much! BTW: The Baby was so good...you guys are so Blessed.

[@brittanyw.436]

I LOVE how that alyssum did around your urn in the versailles garden! I can't wait to get my hands on growing that here! I've binge watched all of your videos from the beginning to here so far but this is my first comment. I'm not a gardener (yet) but I've grown some herbs here and there and have always had a slight interest in it. I'm so ready to unleash this passion I have for gardening now at 29 because you've inspired me so much! So thank you both!

[@aliciahoffmann8751]

80's synths and drones are the perfect combo!

[@margiemcpeak9304]

Loved this video! Great work Aaron! Benjamin was so good. Yes, ALL babies love riding. I'd love to check out a growing facility sometime. It's amazing to try and grasp just how many plants are there! Thanks for taking us along. 💜

[@noragarcia252]

Thanks for the ride the scenery is so beautiful.I can't wait to see what you will be doing with the flowers.Thank you

[@julieofidaho]

Hello Laura, Aaron, and Benjamin. Greeting you from the City of Trees, Boise, Idaho. Loved the video. I recognized Harrison Boulevard and then Simplot Hill and I was wondering where you were going. I didn’t even realize there was that huge growing facility hiding in that part of town. We will have to take a drive. The trees are beautiful here in Boise this time of year. I’ve been watching your videos for a couple weeks and yesterday I got all excited when I found some plants that you have talked about. When I told the gal at D&B Supply about you and your videos, she told me that she took a potting class from you many years ago. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and very cool that you and your talented hubby also share the view of scenic Western Idaho and eastern Oregon. One of these days we will head your direction and check out your parents garden center.

[@jorozfrench]

It's so true, I'm surprised plants are as inexpensive as they are when you purchase them at the store. So many years of labor goes into them before you get them!

[@ruthkjar4003]

I used to work for Olsen Greenhouse here in Utah. My dad used to manage for them. Looks like they gotten even bigger!

[@margaretpervier8357]

Fun trip! You really need a plan before going shopping for plants. It’s easy to become overwhelmed! 😊❤️

[@lovepeace4635]

love all your videos, Benjamin is so cute.

[@zuleymarenteria649]

Hi Laura! All of your videos are great. I love waking up in the morning and first thing to see is that you have uploaded another video!! I get so excited!!. I love even more when they're 10+ minutes long.!! ❤❤❤

[@renaekatsma3666]

You live in a beautiful area! Thank you for showing us the growing facility and your plants!

[@KatherineTheGr8t]

What a welcome surprise for us. I have always, always wondered where the plants were grown in the different parts of the country and specifically where yours came from being way out in Ontario, OR. Do they grow the varieties together and then separate or do they grow your order together as we saw it? I am going to be looking out for growers now - where ever I go that have ample Garden Center outlets in a community. How awesome to see this one grower in a small valley with such a lush facility inside and OUT...thank you Laura & Aaron (and Benjamin too) - now the term "hay racks" makes perfect sense, and something I can do so easily at my place (rather than clunky boxed window boxes.) Just absolutely lovely :- )

[@angiesalazar1126]

Hi guys! Laura I think we have a problem my husband can’t stop buying plants! Lol!! But I love it! Are backyard is full of so many projects for summer. So happy we found you on utube it’s been such a blessing in our life’s. Thanks for taking us on your trip it was such an amazing place. What beautiful plants!

[@katekilgour4794]

What a beautiful setting! I loved seeing the greenhouse supplier you visited. I'm working on transforming my (tiny, concrete) garden bit by bit, and your videos give me such inspiration. Thanks for all your hard work! 🌸🌸🌸

[@pamketron]

Wow. Such an awesome facility. Would just love walking through there looking at all the pretty flowers. Take us along when you go back to get more flowers. This was amazing to see. Thanks for thinking of us for your trip. Benjamin was such a good little traveller. Can’t wait to see you plant these. Hugs! 💝😍🌺🌼

[@Smileyson58]

Cool drone footage👍🏼

[@carolynlatter2752]

Loved seeing all the beautiful colours! I think I would have to spend a few days in their greenhouses! The choices are incredible!!

[@sharlenedauberman9151]

What a little piece of heaven!!! Gorgeous!!!!!!

[@lindavernon1185]

Really great video. Thanks so much for taking us on this journey. So pretty

[@peggyscott2180]

This is a great idea! I'm going see if there are growers where I live!

[@jennm2689]

Oh I needed to see that greenhouse run! It keeps me encouraged knowing spring will arrive at some point in my neck of the woods and will be well worth the wait🐝🌸

[@JPKight]

This was very cool to see! Thank you for showing us!

[@TheJennBrown]

It was 46° when I woke up. Difference is, I live in Florida! What a crazy winter!

[@greatideas9240]

thank you for showing us a green house. i wish i could go to such a spot

[@jolielutrario6930]

Can't wait to see how you combine these annuals in your beds...

[@amandaloewen7655]

We got to go on a road trip! Yeah! I love the scene where there's beautiful green lawn on one side of the road and how its totally different on the opposite side. Anyways, back to flowers! Those selections are beautiful. Looking forward to your upcoming projects. On another positive note how awesome that Benjamin liked the car ride! Blessings to you and your family! See you in the next video:)

[@browneyes-cj8eg]

went to my favorite greenhouse yesterday in Manchester Maine and they had a truck from proven winners unloading.. so exciting. they were very busy getting ready to get that load in the new pots. everything was growing nicely since I was there 2 weeks ago. picked up pansies..they are beautiful.. but have to be harden before we can put them out. so bitter cold here. thanks for another great video.. and my Benjamin fix..

[@casey.munmar]

Yay!! Loved seeing some blooms finally :) thanks for sharing!

[@MsPandora93]

What a nice video! Loved the road trip and nursery. We're still dealing with snow on the ground in Ontario, Can. I think this weekend it's going to be warmer and help melt this mess. tfs.

[@sharfinbean3362]

Wow, that makes me so anxious for some warm weather and then getting my plants! Beautiful

[@TheMag625]

Wow it's heaven there!!!!!!!!

[@medinasod2013]

I just scrolled down and clicked on proven winner and there you were again got my flowers supertunia Bordeaux Denim and lace and a few others inspired by your little round Garden in front of your house your great spokesman for them you and Aaron make a great team Benjamin's pretty cute too!

[@camicri4263]

[@suemcelroy2519]

Thank you for taking me along !! It's stopping snowing here in Ohio so this is refreshing😁😁

[@susanpeterson9947]

Thanks so much for taking us on your road trip! It was fun and your plants are lovely!

Road trip -❤️ it! The greenhouse in Boise - WOW.

Great drone shots!

[@laurablanton703]

Loved seeing so much color! Still waiting for spring to really arrive in Northern Colorado.

[@carlawilson2241]

[@crystalgumm3741]

What a fun road trip!! So awesome!! The plants areso beautiful! I found some beautiful hostas the other day!! Cant wait for my superbells and supertunias to get here!! Im so elated to have learned about them through you and now I can enjoy some on my porch!!

[@usomexmartin220]

Getting my garden answer fix before i start my day LOL Hi Laura, Aaron, Dexter and baby :-)

[@rosemountfarms2897]

[@fostbobb]

Thanks for the video. Love them. I'm looking forward to the video about the trees in your yard. We have planted 3 trees.

[@jeandunne]

Great drone footage! Love your camera work. Like looking at things through your eyes! Good work.

[@amberritchardson9420]

Thanks for sharing! It was so interesting seeing the process, and a very beautifully filmed video!

[@katediy4563]

Loved hearing your little squeal when you saw your plants. I would too. I forget you didn't have much exposure to babies that you're only just discovering Benjamin likes car rides. All babies love car rides. I am getting so antsy to dig in the dirt. Mother Nature dumped about 20" of snow on us though. Next week we'll reach 60° weather.

[@mistymckinney4110]

So inspiring!

[@medinasod2013]

You guys getting pretty professional with the Drone love the trip to the nursery always love your videos

[@AliceMaryAnne1]

Good Morning Laura from the UK! Thanks for another great video :)

[@NiaLin]

I love petunias. Wish I could have them again. Unfortunately, we have an invasive moth that uses them as a host plant. The caterpillars level one petunia in about 48 hrs. Spraying B.T. doesn’t work cuz the plants get really sick, ooze a sticky sap in response to the invasion & become unsalvageable. It’s awful to see this happen to gorgeous supertunias. If Proven Winners ever develops a supertunia resistant to caterpillars let us know! I’d love to go to this greenhouse & dream about what I could create. Thanks for taking us along!

[@kunatheory]

the colors are amazinggggg

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

This was awesome!! Thanks!

[@MilkAndHoneyAcreage]

Starting to remind me of John from Growing Your Greens he says "What's growing on." All the time in his videos. Lol 🤣 I love his channel you should check him out. He does mostly edibles though.

[@muminmamman1322]

I just love petunias! Wish they were perennials.

[@mrsandmom5947]

It was 36 here in ga this morning..snowed in North ga yesterday

[@rileym9937]

I would love to see the process of creating garden displays at Andrews.

[@ellengill514]

To me perennials are the backdrop. I only use annuals to do spring/summer hanging baskets and pots for around the porches and beds. Some of these like the the hippo-rose and hippo-reds, which we call something different here in the South, come back every year. So I say take advantage of all, but I don't have the time or money to plant beds and beds of annuals.

[@ruchisrish]

Hi Lauren you are doing this amazing work.. if possible please make a video of watering system of your garden.. are there lot of drip irrigation??

[@sharylblomquist7547]

So envious

[@kacikinsella3091]

I typed in hydrangea and your channel popped up! So hello! Lol i planted some TINY lime light hydrangea about a week ago and theyre still green yay! (Earning my green thumb lol) But im curious if you know how long it take little ones to bloom or if they even do? :) thanks

[@tyrenasmith7581]

Beautiful!

[@luisavazquez1993]

hola Laura. Veo todos tus videos desde Granada España, Spain, me encantan, empece a verlos porque soy una enamorada y coleccionista de plantas suculentas, pero al mismo tiempo me interesa todo lo del jardin ya que tengo uno pequeño en la costa a 70 km ,es microclima alli y stas plantas se dan muy bien. Aqui en Granada es distinto hace mucho frio en invierno ya que esta cerca Sierra Nevada 3500 m. Sobre el nivel del mar.es muy curioso que cuando aqui hace frio lluvia y nieve ,veo que ahi tambien. Hoy cuando has ido al vivero ya he visto que hacia buen tiempo como aqui. Saludos a Benjamin,tu marido y para ti. Luisa desde Granada.

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

Very interesting. I have white iberis blooming now and it looks a lot like alyssum and is hardy to zone 3, you could try that, too.

[@jackiehorsley9263]

very osem and your flowers are so pretty

[@MediaMoments]

Great video, and while I've worked in a local nursery, and visited several local ones, I don't think we have any that are as big as the one in Boise. (Maybe because I've not seen them from above...) I loved the UAV footage, but there wasn't enough, and it moved just a bit too fast to really enjoy fully.

[@yvencia1150]

Thank you very much I'm enjoying this video🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@karenamesser2418]

Yvencia Simmons thank you so much for your videos. They inspire me ! 😊😊 Our yard will look so nice due to your videos. I’ve gotten a lot of ideas from you. Also want to let you know your videos are apart of my daily things to do ! Enjoy seeing Benjamin grow up. Not long he will be fallowing you around in your garden. What a blessing he must be. 👶🏻 🏘🌾🍀🌱🌷🌼🌺🌻

[@dianaanderson3174]

I didn't realize you were so close to me. I live in the Tri Cities. Good to watch so I get a better idea of what to expect locally.

[@pamelanelson1444]

Yes, I am jealous!!!

[@reembedwany6144]

For annuals, do you have to remove their roots from the ground every year or just break it and leave it?!

[@izabelaszydlowska3940]

love the lemon coral sedum!
