Oh my word, I absolutely love that Alaskan Cedar, gorgeous ❤. Y'all remind me of our younger years with our children planting up the property. Our 3 children, 41, 43 & 50 now, we're watching them with their babies, carrying on the planting traditions!! Awww, memories past and present, thank y'all so much Laura, for sharing your life with us😊

[@GardenerPhyl]

I hope that every time you look at that hibiscus you remember transplanting it as a family. So much fun making memories with the kids. 🌺

[@rosemarythyme6351]

I think the Limelights not planted in a perfect curve will add to it's beauty and look more natural than formal. The family replanting the Hibiscus in the Dirtlands is heartwarming. A family that plants together, stays together. And little Miss Samantha hoeing a line with purpose is taking after her Mama and Grandmothers. ❣So darn cute!

[@reneehill5548]

He gave you a 🙌 He acknowledged YOU did the work getting the hydrangea out. You chose a wonderful husband 🥰

[@pattywestridge2006]

The family that plants together stays together ❤️

[@conniemcquaid8795]

I love how tidy you are when gardening Whenever you finish a project you always take time to pick up all the debris, use the blower, etc

[@michelesmith9750]

I was just about to post that Laura always cleans up everything and I love that about her. There are other channels that I watch and I love those channels but at the end so much of the time I wanna get a rake, a hose or a blower and go clean up the mess they’ve made.

[@christiemay4444]

So fun to watch your entire family working together on one project. Can't wait to see the hydrangea wall!

[@danajorgensson2540]

Only a cat comment as everyone has certainly covered your great planting video on a glorious blue sky day especially with your gang. I absolutely love how the cats join and follow you and that you're so great with them. It truly warms my heart having lost my "3rd child" just days before COVID lock down after 17 years of joy with our beloved calico. While your feline threesome aren't house pets, they are certainly devoted to you!

[@prescotthenry]

17 years! Wow.

[@pathoward5721]

Love ❤️ the cats 🐈

[@sherilynkoss4546]

I could swear that hibiscus was one of the first big shrubs you planted in the loop! It has turned out so hardy and really one of those kinds of plants that you just want to let grow wild - so huge and fluffy- its going to look wonderful in the dirtlands.❤

[@barbarabaldwin5865]

The hydrangea hedge looks great on video! Once they’re filled out, you won’t notice any minor imperfections. I personally prefer it not looking too perfect. That south garden has really progressed beautifully. It’s so satisfying seeing everything break dormancy and come alive in the spring.

[@tonigardella4165]

A family that plants together stay happy together. How cute are Samantha and Benjamin thinking they could dig that hole lol❤️🌸

[@dianelanglois6816]

I loved watching your “transplant team” replanting the hibiscus!! Team work!!

[@ardythebartosch9913]

Love the Alaskan Cedar, it's so quaint. Looks like it needs to be in a Wonderland, and you have a wonderful place for it to shine. Planting things always seems to add so much more beauty to the life of your garden. Love you all working together. Building memories! Love you all.

[@jennygirl8849]

It's almost like Laura picks us up every morning in her gator and takes us on a loving ride through her Heavenly garden and flower beds. Thanks Laura!❤☕️ 🌿

[@2ManyTomatoes]

I am so excited for the busy season to start again. Let's plant stuff!

[@laitra]

For the last month I have been stuck at home because of my meniscus surgery. I still can not walk without cruthes so I am working on my master’s thesis just sitting in front of a computer all day when all I want to do is go gardening! 😭😭😭 well, at least I can watch your videos every day, it gives me ideas and lifts me up :) I am soo looking forward to being able to kneel down and just plant something ❤

[@didisinclair3605]

Heal well and quickly!!!

[@laitra]

@@didisinclair3605 thank you so much! 🙏🏻

[@kathym9676]

Love all of your videos! As my Dad once said, nature isn't straight. 100% true. Your gardens look gorgeous!!

[@velmacoen4485]

I love how you allow your kids to "help" in your garden... Like digging the hole to plant the tree. Reminded me of years ago when my young one helped me rake leaves. I used to sing, don't put your dust in my dustpan, because she always wanted to rake in front of my rake. But so sweet....

[@michellnav]

I love watching the whole family out there working!

[@paulastafford1642]

OMG, the children are getting so tall, especially your son.

[@Realitytime2024]

Do you ever glance across your garden and get overwhelmed at how blessed you are? I feel that way at times. I praise God every time. 😊 You also have blessed me with all I have learned from you and Aaron. Thank you!

[@margies5906]

I loved seeing the whole family out planting together 💗

[@katiegray14]

More planting!!! Spring has officially arrived!! 🎉

[@mistygeller3193]

Kids, cats, plants and sunshine!! Always a video to watch! 😊

[@LMK0307]

My neighbor has a weeping evergreen, and never having seen them before, every time I drove by, I thought it was dead or dying! I wanted to pull it out myself! I'm glad you love it so much. Don't know if it will ever "grow on me"!

[@margierousu468]

I think they look like they are wilted and dying ... NOT a fan of those.

[@pathoward5721]

I’m not a fan either 😢

[@Deb-xn6yr]

Such a sweet family, planting flowers together 😍. Laura, your husband, kids and cats all love you very much ! Very heartwarming! From Georgia with love ❤

[@claracorimao1024]

What a beautiful morning out there, Laura.Here I'm about to sleep as it's 7 PM, Manila time. Blessed night every one.

[@benjaminclingaman7551]

Hey Laura Aaron is a gentleman and a scholar For helping you lift that heavy plant.

[@TheCmtt06]

I absolutely love how everything has turned out. It is also completely adorable that Douglas is always right there ready to help

[@adoster2008]

Oh my, watching the kids help you dig the hibiscus hole made my day! A laugh out loud moment. ❤

[@vickieyoung7122]

The Alaskan Cedar is so pretty...and as always loved seeing all the kitties !

[@janetstevens5990]

That tree is simply amazing and so beautiful. Douglas seems extra friendly today. The family working together makes my heart so happy.

[@susanturner9023]

Laura, sometimes your videos are actually therapy! ✌🏻❤️🙏🏼

[@Jenoveryonder]

Other times they are causing addiction problems! 😂

[@annehedlund7333]

I think the Hibiscus is in exile because she was the stand out in that area. Gorgeous color stole the scene!

[@suekrebs3497]

Yes, it's great to see the blue sky with the planting. Nice family time for you! We are expecting to wake up to wet heavy snow in southern Wisconsin. So we will be shoveling snow, not dirt, unfortunately!

[@kimberlyheibel8759]

Same here in Michigan.

[@melindaowens1144]

Can’t wait to see these plants blooming. Laura, I really appreciate all the effort you go to to move your camera around so we can see all the steps! Love your videos.

[@greenrockgarden2851]

Sometimes, I appreciate your type A personality. Then, sometimes I’m yelling in my head at you, “No! Don’t move that plant, Laura! No one else notices but you!” Lol You have become more relaxed since becoming a Mom though. I think motherhood teaches you to choose your battles.

[@juliafiore120]

That hedge is going to look stunning. 🤩 You’re being too hard on yourself! Leave ‘em be! 😂 The Cedar is 😍😍🌲

[@KalicoKat1013]

Videos like this really make me miss my garden 😞

[@cherylt6888]

It was a family affair! Lots of great gardening here.

[@lindahopps739]

You certainly are having some beautiful weather, how about sending it east and north, 😂 ! Nice to see someone planting somewhere!

[@jodirauth8847]

Laura thank you for all the inspiration today.

[@willisck59]

Love the family togetherness ❤. So sweet

[@barbb.9489]

Laura, I just love these funky twisty cedar trees! ❤ Are you going to plant more, as they are such fun? You could plant a family of them to honor the four of your family! 😂

[@amydeeds6248]

Your weather-amazing! Michigan weather-3 inches of snow this morning lol. I’m watching the wild turkeys scratching around under my bird feeder eating seeds. I love this video because of all the sunshine and your positivity for a new gardening season. Time to go shovel now🤦🏻‍♀️. ☺️

[@jgg7377]

At first I thought the roses must be thornless because I didn’t see you wearing gloves then I see gloves! Lol I was thinking yep, she learned her lesson. Those limelight hydrangeas will look gorgeous in a long row once they are filled in, you won’t notice anything being off . I love hibiscus and have several different colors, it will look pretty out there but needs some friends. Maybe a hedge of them in different colors would like beautiful. I would like to see you give Samanatha and Benjamin both a 6 pack of plants and take them out to the dirt lands and let them plant them with absolutely no help from parents. ??? Let them gather what they need like shovel, fertilizer etc. Let’s see how much they know and have learned from momma???????? I think that would be a awesome video to watch!! 🫶🙌👀🧑👧🌺🌸

[@Yrutnec1]

LOL !!! LOVE THE FAMILY PLAN HIBISCUS!!! WHAT GREAT LESSONS YOU GIVE US LAURA, AND THE MEMORIES THAT YOU ARE CARVING INTO THE HEARTS OF BENJAMIN & BABY SAMANTHA GRACE IS AMAZING!

[@leesaaugustine1444]

Good Morning!🌲 I love watching Aaron, Benjamin, Samantha & you work together on projects!! That Alaskan Cedar is gorgeous, I am studying trees to plant in a space that just opened up! I might need to consider the Alaskan Cedar! 🥰🌲😃🌿💚

[@janeparker7150]

The Alaskan Cedar looks so soft and has a fairy land vibe. You have gotten so much done this winter and early Spring. I am loving all of the garden cleanups, pruning tutorials and planting this years containers. Thank you for brightening my day. Winter returned here and wants to hang on.

[@LuckyEucalyptusTree-ey9jn]

Happy Spring 🌱🌼 to our Wonderful Laura and family thanks for all the joy you bring looks beautiful ❤️

[@robingrunzweig1880]

i love that weeping evergreen, like a graceful lady in her long flowing dress... so pretty!! what a good day for planting, and i love seeing the kids and Aaron out there with you... family time in the best way.. also seeing Benjamin in the background riding his bike 😍 what a great place to be a kid!!! 🥰❤thanks for the video!! 🥰❤

[@Argo53]

Most under appreciated comment ever: "sometimes it's hard to remember what is planted in each of the beds". You don't say!

[@hollyashton7009]

More planting with just nature sounds 🙏

[@truthtalker4038]

The weeping Alaskan cedar looks great when they are clumped together in 3's.. that is how they grow in the wild with many of them in groups

[@rosealvarado264]

Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️

[@kristibrooks967]

😂I was betting on how early in the season Laura will start talking about "drifts" ! ❤🎯❤

[@mmsanrio]

I wish I had room for a drooping grinch tree! I do have a tiny Hinoki cypress. Praying it is alive & well!

[@juliemartell1071]

Boy I would love just a little bit of your energy, today tried to do some weeding and boy did I have to take breaks! Beautiful arrangements and can not wait to see them bloom. As always I enjoy seeing the kiddos and they were adorable with their shovels ❤️

[@judyklein3221]

Your weather there looks great. Beautiful sky. Russell and Cheddar seem always to be near you. So sweet. Lots accomplished as usual. Hope you all have a wonderful day!💕

[@mickimorris4794]

I love that your children are always with you Aaron

[@kkeenan536]

Thanks so much for showing the whole process of moving the hibiscus! I need to move a big one and am dreading it (I’m 71 yo lady so not as strong as I used to be). Looking forward to the garden tours this year, they’ll be spectacular 💚🙌🌸🥰

[@pat9604]

😂Just loved the family hibiscus planting, and the llooonngg trench Samantha hoed in the background.

[@GoingGreenMom]

You know, Ive always thought it would be cool to have a wide variety of plant identification skills. What I didnt expect was to spot things while driving around and be able to say, oh, that is a king tut grass, oh, that is a weeping cedar tree, oh, those are bubblegum supertunias. Lol. There is a beautiful weeping cedar up the road about 5 minutes. Very close to the side of their house it seems, but gives wonderful texture and color.

[@ShirleyJDavis]

❤How the children are learning to love flowers from all the help they are doing.

[@violetamayer6298]

Yeeiiiiiii the garden is waking up and plants are going in 👏👏👏👏👏

[@user-yw9vm9gv9e]

Looks like a great group of helpers! What fun

[@oliviamerrell8575]

Love that cedar tree!! I am so excited to watch you work on all of the garden spaces!!

[@peggyhelblingsgardenwhatyo7920]

Good morning, Laura, from Windermere Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸 Great job ❤ Thankfully, Aaron helped and your little helpers❤ Happy Gardening Everyone 👩‍🌾👍 ❤Peggy❤

[@gaylerichards7409]

Love the evergreen tree and can’t wait to see the hydrangeas and sedum.

[@dianegreiner4054]

Watching this as it snows in Michigan! I like your weather better. 😂

[@nanrichard9198]

My favorite part is watching the whole family planting! It makes my heart happy!❤😁

[@janiceslifco146]

So happy that you finally got your weeping Alaskan Cedar. It is beautiful and I would like to get one for myself. I'll have to start looking around for one. So precious to see you and Aaron step back from digging the hole for the hibiscus and let Benjamin and Samantha dig some too. Your kids are the best and so cute. The hydrangea will all flow together when they spread out later and bloom and you'll never know that some are not planted exactly the same distance apart. Loved your video overall. God bless you in all that you do.

[@janehynes8319]

Ohhhh. Nice sunshiny video as Michigan prepares for snow on Friday.

[@nashnash7997]

730am and already 1.5" and its my birthday. Boooo i wanted sun and 50°😂

[@patwebb6522]

Hello Laura and family, everything is looking beautiful and you're really filling in the area's so nicely can't wait to see it all in bloom. My favorite is watching Benjamin and Samantha help brought a smile to my face that is so sweet. You and Aaron are raising such beautiful, helpful children ❤️ they will take over the gardens someday 😊❤ God's blessings to you all 😊❤

[@rasheawhite3644]

I love y'all, dear family! Sissy!🥰🌟🤗☀️

[@noradunlap7539]

I loved the family was helping plant the hibiscus! Just precious!!❤️❤️🦋🦋

[@aruiz565]

Looks beautiful! It makes me smile watching your entire family gardening together.

[@user-fo6kq1wc6l]

Alaskan Cedar is such a beautiful tree! So unique.Can't wait to see all the limelights in bloom. It's going to be gorgeous!

[@blk123]

Have you thought about what you will do when your property is all planted up? Will you perhaps take over your parents garden centre when they retire?

[@kathystarnes6744]

These last few videos are not as clear. There’s spots where the focus goes out. I so love your videos Laura. 💚💚💚

[@Nikki7B]

Oh wow, that Alaskan cedar sure is beautiful, I can just imagine at maturity how beautiful it will be. Also, I'm a bit addicted to panicle hydrangeas, so I was excited to see more going in. Lol

[@SoilTherapy]

Oh how satisfying it was to finally see you remove that beautiful hibiscus from that bed! It is going to Love its new home where it can stretch and GLOW!! 💛

[@TamaBevan-um7fy]

Sedums are some of my favorite plants- no fuss.

[@nickles4652]

I just loved seeing you all working as a family to move the hibiscus! ❤❤❤❤ Can't wait to see the hydrangea hedge in bloom.

[@melindaflick631]

I love how the cats shadow you around your work. So much fun.

[@wynorawishum5860]

That weeping Cedar is awesome. I love it. The hydrangeas will be wonderful. You design such beautiful areas. And my goodness but you had good help with you today. Beautiful family. Have a blessed day.

[@kathy8832]

Good morning! I love that evergreen. There is an evergreen for every space you have. I love how it’s drapery (is that even a word) and graceful. Beautiful!

[@charleneskalmusky5509]

I am jealous because here in Wisconsin it’s snowing!

[@carlaephotography7096]

Thank you for another great morning in your garden! ❤ I live in Zone 8a, Central Texas. I love the Evergreens you plant, but with our “Texas” heat…never cools off below 80s in summer at night…it has been a challenge to find evergreens that will survive here. I appreciate you mentioning the cold hardiness of these trees, but it would be really nice if you would also share their heat hardiness zones…Please? Thank you ❤ Thank you for sharing your beautiful family working in the garden together!

[@nedda2000]

The Limelight Prime hedge looks very beautiful and natural there. I know the "unevenness" bugs you even though no one would ever notice unless you pointed it out. So, I went back to the video where you planted "round 2" of the Primes, lol. Looks like when you tucked those in, the Sparkling Amethyst Superbena where robustly growing in that area. Plus, the blooms from the other Limelight Primes where down on the ground due to the rain. Mystery solved! Again, the hedge looks amazing 🤩

[@barbaradunleavy3755]

Speaking of colors I love your nail polish color!

[@amywilliamson9778]

New plants are lovely but your hair is extra fabulous today too!

[@gailagnello8159]

Love love love the weeping 🌲 evergreen tree❤

[@sirinetakieddine2580]

I live my dream through you . Your videos make me happy

[@TamaBevan-um7fy]

Love the Alaskan tree.

[@giveitagogarden]

The perennials in the dirt lands have started!!! We knew you wouldn't be able to resist 😂❤

[@GardenKath]

I was thrilled to see Aaron clearing dirt and mulch away from the root flare of that tree. 👏 👏 👏

[@dianequist835]

Me too!! Don't want that tree dying off slowly.

[@rhodealexandre6583]

That was a family affair today. I love it😊

[@ja-uh9gz]

I can't wait for everything to bloom out. It'll be so beautiful!

[@cookiescott2165]

Love watching The LeBoitlier family gardening❤❤❤❤
