[@kerrydibiasio3784]

Love how Aaron is in front of the camera more lately! Planting those trees like a boss!

[@jenniferchoo9413]

Me too...their banter/chemistry is fum to watch.

[@Rita70.]

Agree!

[@QueenBee-xd1xk]

And now we know why due to today's video! 👶🍼🐣

[@haris8853]

It’s because Laura is pregnant, we’ll probably see a lot more of him now

[@burtonwillis6454]

Okkkaaayyyy? "A" was handlin business plantin them trees!

[@selacy1965]

I don't think I've ever seen such a patient, easy going man! Any man in my family would have thrown a tantrum right then and there after realizing that mistake. So much work! Laura, you seem very laid back to me too so you guys are two peas in a pod I think. I really enjoy watching your videos, even if they don't apply to me very much at the time,. You never know when you'll be able to think back about something you learned earlier. Keep up the good content!

[@creativelady7]

@selacy1965 Great comments! I agree!😊

[@marlaniaegbert9995]

Yep , my husband would have thrown his shovel down and walked off. There would have been no digging it up and moving it. Way to keep your cool Aaron!!

[@gabrielag9846]

YES, and I think that's a sign of emotional maturity. Mad respect to Aaron for handling it.

[@maggiecudic2744]

Go Aaron! Please be this good humored when you are in your 60s and looking at 40 plus years of marriage! Doing a great job dude!

[@thatssewvenice5337]

Hahaha right. Although it helps when you're on camera.

[@beckyhazelhoff2559]

Wow!!! Look at Aaron rockin’ the Biotone 😂😂😂 He’s been paying attention! Go Aaron!!! 👍🏻

[@CasacaraDFP]

The Curb Your Enthusiasm credits felt very appropriate for that moment 🤣

[@JMBG-fn2ko]

The maples are going to be beautiful!! What really stood out to me the most tho is how Aaron handled the mistake. Yes, he felt stupid but he’s not . He realized his mistake and was still willing to change it. Your attitude stood out as well. You didn’t make him feel stupid for the mistake. We ALL make mistakes but we can learn something from them and from the video. I think Hydrangeas would be lovely and maybe some evergreens too. Whatever y’all do it will be beautiful!! Keep up the good work. Your little boy is not only catching your enthusiasm for gardening but he is learning how mommy and daddy handle mistakes. Have a blessed day!!

[@creativelady7]

@JMBG2015 I like and agree with your comments!

[@twiggygirlgirl9444]

And remember, they decided to keep this “blooper” in! It shows how real both are!!!

[@joanwalters4741]

😘😘. Been there, done a heap of that....but, not on film! Good you Both💚💚. Remember, measure TWICE, CUT ONCE👍

[@judymckerrow6720]

Aaron is such a sweetie. In the past I didn’t think Aaron had much interest in the gardening aspect of Garden Answer. It looks like I was definitely wrong. It’s so nice to see that Garden Answer is truly a family affair. I’m am sooooo excited to see your property coming together and a little bit jealous. My youth is gone, but my desire to create something as beautiful as I know this will be, is stronger than ever. I have the time now, but I don’t think anything that I plant will ever reach maturity in my life time. I have the energy in my head, but the body is telling me, you blew it girl, should have done that about 20 years ago. So I will continue to watch the growth in your wonderful gardens and dream💚🙃

[@Artemisgrier]

Judy McKerrow you know the expression? The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

[@gardenfairy9792]

I know just how you feel. 🙂

[@creativelady7]

I getcha girl, though we still live on our one acre property where I planted almost everything when in my 50s! My body is showing the wear and tear now.😅🌺

[@michellezimmerman7827]

I hear yah! But we do what we can and push onward! 😊👩🏻‍🌾🌸

[@rebecca6017]

Judy I feel what you are saying. I’m 64 but my head thinks I’m 30. I just overdid in the garden and boy do I feel it. Here is a positive. Some plants grow fast so don’t give up. I planted a maple tree 3 years ago and I already have shade. My backyard was bare 3 years ago and now I have over 50 roses, and more flowers than dirt and grass. This channel is so inspiring. As soon as I’m ready to go out, I make a cup of tea, watch these wonderful people and off I go to get good and dirty. Best advice is to plant one thing a day. Think of it like going to the gym. Just yesterday I read that gardeners live 15 years longer. I actually take better care of myself just so I can keep gardening. I can see why it increases longevity. Just pace yourself and watch not only your garden grow but your body’s health grow too. Which I didn’t do this week🤣. Anyway. Hope I helped you keep going. There is nothing better than nature, sunshine and the creativity that a garden brings.

[@tylerj6182]

every other youtube channel: drama garden answer: trees

[@preciousmerriweather]

And consist posting lol

[@julieharrington5644]

You'll have to get an auger for your tractor if you plant trees that size again! Those were huge. Nice job, Aaron! I love that he's more and more in the videos. As always, wonderful video!

[@13dulcie]

Aaron...if you only knew how many times the words..."how did that happen" come out if my mouth you would laugh so hard. You did a great job. Way to keep a positive attitude through it all. I probably would have threw the shovel down and went and made myself a cocktail...lol💗🌳

[@eileenchang2173]

Aaron, you’re the most patient person I have ever seen! I was actually laughing so hard when Laura said earlier in the clip that she was a hired hand but I think it’s the other way around. She is The director. And Laura, I hate to say but the director actually does the quality check before something is implemented so Aaron can’t take the heat for this one alone. Ha ha . He’s actually all the manual labour , the harder part of the work! On a more serious note - Aaron I got so nervous when you did not have your work boots on when you first started to auger, and was relieved when I noticed you changed into boots. Laura , there you are stepping among that cut wire with your sneakers on. Please please please be careful. I’ve worked in healthcare all my life and critical incidents typically happen when personal protection equipment is not worn.

[@cecillegravelle2590]

yes I was thinking the same. How did Laura not notice the hole was dug wrong.?.😉 on a lighter note. at least it didn't get noticed a year or so later after the tree was stabilized.😊

[@beebejasmin4129]

🍷🍷🍷😬

[@conniejones9280]

Laura didn’t you just want to give Aaron a big encouraging (yet,sweaty) hug ?.? 🙀🙄 He’s such a sweetheart,you two were definitely made for each other! First time for this 76 year old widow to comment~ no yard nowadays for me~ however I have to watch you each morning with my first cuppa coffee! God bless your family!

[@rosalindash6830]

He really really loves you, in that heat!!

[@starone38]

No music, no magic or clones . Good!! 👏🏼👏🏼 love videos like this .

[@lisahahn2219]

A new video star is born... Aaron. Wonder if he ever thought he'd be planting for the KZbin world. Congratulations Aaron.

[@CC-ci8gn]

"How does that happen?" -Aaron. Yep, I say that to myself way too often! Can't wait to see them in the fall!

[@mark.kaiser]

I was really confused for the first 2:50. I thought Laura got taller and grew a beard. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Just kidding. Great job, Aaron! You're killing it, dude!

[@patriciamathis7042]

It's really weird to see the property from 4 & 5 years ago. And to look at it now. What a difference ❤😂❤

[@shannon5203]

I loved the subtitles for Benjamin. 🤣 He’s such a little sweetie!!

[@marilynmcgillick2931]

Love the trees! I laughed so hard when Aaron edited in the credits and Larry David's name popped up! Perfect!

[@botheredwithknots-Sandra]

Right!! I laughed so much! 😄

[@Lnstrq]

Aaron!!!! I feel for you bro! You're such a good man though even after realizing your mistake. As a guy I think it's great to see other guys take it in stride and just do what you have to do to make things right! You'll never forget that tree!! I agree with others comments that its good to see you in more videos. Love watching you both! Thanks for the great content. Ive learned so much from your channel!

[@lorrierunnals140]

Hi Laura and Erin - Benjamin is just sooo adorable. I love seeing him in your videos. Now that’s he’s talking it’s even more enjoyable. Can’t wait till you have your new little one. Best wishes. 💕

[@Higginsangel]

I have never heard of red point maple till your videos. Now I look for them at the greenhouse I shop at. Thanks for all you guys do. My flowers are amazing. I live in a senior community snd have people drive around on their golf carts and comment on my yard

[@itsnotmeitsyou8271]

Thats pretty awesome 😁👍😃

[@peggyshook6746]

I love the trees. I’m glad I’m not the only one that makes mistakes then have to correct. I just love listening to Benjamin talk. Such a boy!!

[@sydneybraunschweig6410]

While Aaron was pulling on the tree to straighten it I was trying to count how many fence posts were in between because it didn't look right to me and I thought I was going crazy... then I saw Aaron counting and I knew something was wrong! 😂

[@darleneroberson8146]

sydney braunschweig Yep🤣🤭

[@jasminefrench1223]

Oh they are going to be BEAUIFUL driving up the lane - all seasons! So pretty

[@cristinacapolongo1252]

Bless Aaron heart 😂 he’s a good man, my husband would of look at me ‘forget it, I’m not digging that up” lol 😂 Awesome job Aaron, I enjoy watching your beautiful family. Your neighbors are blessed to have you for a neighbor. I know I would 🥰

[@ameenhoussaine2695]

I always feel motivated when I watch yr amazing task guys 👍👍.

[@judyjohnson7468]

Love the Maple Trees! I felt Sooo Sorry for Aaron having to move the tree. What a Good Man! He takes it all in stride. Going to look Beautiful. Hugs 👍❤❤

[@gchaudhry1]

Arron is brave for not editing his mistake. Nice work 👏 👌

[@jenniferchoo9413]

We are planting 14 red maples this fall. We are lining a new gravel driveway with them. I am so excited.

[@brittanymarie18]

Awwww I instantly felt for you guys when you realized you planted a tree in the wrong spot! You guys are such troopers and have such good spirits though. I just absolutely love watching your channel!

[@sandradee4470]

I really enjoy watching this transformation. The trees will be perfect along the fence line. Great to see families working together to create an environment they love. May God continue to richly bless your family.

[@jhunt5862]

I almost spit my coffee when the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme started playing! I need that on a loop anytime we get into a project like this at my house. Thanks for the chuckle this morning!

[@sherryhudson9075]

Love to see the family together !

[@TheImpatientGardener]

Very nice! Great investment in the future of this area.

[@vmcougarintn5035]

Oh golly, you guys are real people after all. (LOL) Love the look of those trees. Thanks for sharing. (Hi Benjamin!) Stay safe.

[@mele9627]

Particularly enjoyed Aaron's hosting debut! It had a nice relaxing vibe

[@dancingisawesome1000]

I love how much Aaron knows about the particulars of gardening

[@CuriousCreature]

Subtitles for Benjamin so funny!

[@TheJaoo41]

Exciting!! Won’t the trunks reach the post/fence line when they mature? 🤍

[@SJ-SOLO]

They may remove the fence right where the trunk hits, so the trees are part of the fence? Assuming that the trees will start causing problems in the future with the fence! I think it would look neat like that :)

[@TheJaoo41]

SJ I hear ya. Not sure though if Laura would be too keen on that since she loves her fence! 😆 Anyway, I’m not really sure how big maple tree trunks get, so they might have considered those already. 👍

[@DrewSorensenMusic]

I thought this as well. Those trees seem very close to that fence.

[@alinewright1093]

Did she take the tree Fertilizers with her

[@kellyclackum1310]

Laura, I know you realize it but you are a very blessed young woman! A wonderful husband, beautiful lil boy & a absolutely beautiful home & awesome family. God bless all of you & Thank you again for sharing your life with us💚🥰🙏🏻🕊

[@nanaliekknotts336]

Thank you guys for keeping that little goof up in the video. It helps us all know that you are real people, with some of the same issues we have. (spacie spacing!) It would have been so easy for you to edit that out.

[@joshuascott5712]

Just stumbled across your amazing channel! And Im obsessed, I must admit I'm a bit crazy for houseplants, But I may just have to branch out into the outside garden! :D

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

The trees look perfect ...now. 😉 Seriously, great job Aaron! Benjamin is becoming the cutest chatter box. I Love it!🥰🌳✅

[@mariabarnes1815]

Oh dear Aaron , I am glad you notice and it is fixable, the trees are so beautiful. Good Job !

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Aaron and Laura! Those trees will be so pretty where you planted them. Aaron was such a trooper about replanting the one tree, and Laura you handled it well, too! I'm glad the tree was easy for him to move. As always, it was great seeing Benjamin, too! Thank you for sharing!

[@orangeandolivedesigns]

Aaron, super impressed by you planting the trees by yourself! I felt so bad when you realized the tree had to be moved but you're right, happens all the time. I had to move 3 plants last week because of that reason. I LOVE the trees along the fence, so pretty!

[@helenchidlow8568]

U work so well together, good teamxx👍❤️

[@msamelienp]

Beautiful tree placement guys. It was great to see Aaron doing the planting and how he moved the tree with the tractor. WAY cool! I love your videos...Can't get enough of my Garden Answer!

[@DCT14]

Aaron is the Man! He is patient, understanding, accommodating and an overall nice guy! Great Work. Laura, you guys make a great team.

[@cherylpozek]

You both work so well together. Even with a snafew with the trees. Glad I'm not the only one who has to dig things back up and replant them due to error in spacing 😂 Mine wasn't as big, but even so. It's good to see I'm not alone in my planting spacing issues. Looks great

[@TheThurmon]

Pp

[@donnawalker3910]

YAY!!! The maple trees : ) I am excited to watch them mature and really excited to see their fall color. I live in an area that doesn't get a lot of color in the fall and I love seeing the colors of fall that happen in other areas.

[@kellylaliberte548]

Oh, Benjamin talking about the weeoh weeoh brought back such a sweet memory! My nephew who is 26 now used to call police cars and fire trucks weeoh weeohs. He was also obsessed with construction equipment. He would have spent all day hanging on the fence at your house watching the neighbor's house being built.

[@ginapaquet909]

Aaron terrific job!!! Laura, thank you for an up close shot of the bindweed. I found something growing in one of my potted plumeria and sure enough, it is bindweed. I ran out and carefully removed it and hope it does not come back otherwise I will need to replant it again. Many thanks!!!

[@ASH-kj9xt]

Wonderful project and inspiration! Hope Aaron got his favorite meal and a back rub after this project! The trees look amazing and I love Aaron’s idea of hydrangeas in the back corner. Limelights would be gorgeous with interest all year. Loved seeing and hearing Benjamin talk! 🥰 He’s got a great vocabulary! It’s growing so fast, just like he is. Time flies! Love y’all and thanks for doing this! So excited to see this property coming together! 🙌🙌💚🌳🌿

[@bildahome]

Oeps, thats close to the Fence...

[@lorilorihallelujah1753]

Well done! You both responded to the error like mature adults and stayed kind to each one other. Very cool!

[@lynettelewis5688]

The line of trees along the fence will be very pretty in the years to come. The baby translation for Benjamin was so funny😄

[@kathy8832]

You two work so well together. That area will be so beautiful with those trees added. Can't wait to see how that looks when the gravel and the other plants get put in.

[@Cottonstatecountry]

Look at Aaron!! Wow! Planting trees ON CAMERA, and coming up with the hydrangea idea(fantastic, btw)! Goodness Laura, you took a backseat in this one. Lol!

[@MelissaKaeCreative]

You guys really need a hydraulic post hole digger with a large auger/bit! We’ve planted 20-30 trees on our property with it. Saves so much time!

[@creativelady7]

Tree planting turned out beautiful! Great job Aaron! So great to see a hard working, even tempered man such as you! I did like the intermittent parts where you were quietly digging with no narrating. Realistic!

[@sherrywoolard-russell9177]

Bless him! Thats some hard work! LOL

[@arianabahadur6464]

I can't wait to see the lane when those trees are grown! Lovely! Also, the verb for augering is 'auger'. So, he had to do some extra augering..poor guy.

[@marilynm8812]

Oh! Benjamin can ride his bike up and down the lane. The trees do make a big difference. Nice

[@valerieunger211]

PS. LOVE the video, everything about it! Mistakes, corrections, process, family affair. You guys rock!!

[@KellysKitchenGarden]

Oh guys, that was so funny! And I loved the editing when Aaron realised the mistake 😂. The trees look fabulous 👌🏼

[@MakeItSo_ST]

After all of these years, it was so nice to see a video that begins with AARON working solo! 🤣😂🤣

[@amberkeumurian255]

Loved seeing these next steps and I absolutely adore that you include the errors you make. Kudos to the amusing spin/editing on it too. I was crying laughing when Aaron realized what he had done. Top notch video.

[@carolbeatty2468]

Coffee with Aaron, Laura, Benjamin and planting trees, what a fun way to start my day. Aaron I bet you were sore after planting those and that's a bummer that you had to move one. It is fun to hear you both talk about what to put where and now I can even sort of imagine things after you talk about them. This will be another fun space to see develop and change!

[@randomincidents4194]

Heck yeah! My man Aaron is on the move and planting trees. Sweeeet! Thanks man for representing. Didn’t think you’d be back on til Xmas for the lights. It’s a cool vibe, man. Balances it out a bit. Very cool. 👍🏻

[@shastadaisy8794]

Lord bless me with a future husband like Aaron , who would help me dig holes for all my plants 🌿 😊

[@pinkmilk7754]

Same 😍🙏🏻

[@shannon5203]

Same! He’s a gem!

[@caligirl008ify]

Lolz I have to beg my husband to help me out in the backyard when it comes down to heavy duty stuffs

[@joycecarter7439]

The first time I asked my husband to help me plant some roses he had a mini- stroke so I haven't asked him since!

[@radhikam2401]

Same.

[@peaceatferngully8369]

So awesome Aaron is boss! Not only is it hard to dig the holes for those trees but he's so patient in rollin' them over into the hole He truly works smarter instead of harder when he can. I learned a few things from him today. Thanks Aaron

[@shell4285]

I love your videos. We put in 3 new trees this year. A blue spruce which I love, an ornamental pear tree and because of you, I fell in love with the redbud tree and we put one of those in. They are all doing amazing. I’d love to see your redbud again to see what it will be like when it gets bigger. Benjamin is adorable!

[@Itsjustinortiz]

Oh I just love all of your plants and trees

[@carolwarmoth8744]

That was a job and a half. Whenever you dig I love seeing all of that luscious soil free of rocks and gravel. In south east Michigan all we have is rocks and gravel 🥴

[@terryrowe8214]

Carol Warmoth yes, I look at the rock free dirt and just sigh.

[@beautybyleanne76]

Nice seeing Aaron take control of a project...even if goofed on the spacing! 😉

[@elizabethsmith9994]

The first 2:30 was a gardening ASMR, and it was quite enjoyable. I have been binge-watching your videos during the quarantine and have enjoyed all the time and effort you have put into your videos. Thank you.

[@laurelking9640]

Those trees will be beautiful!! Go Aaron Go!! Oops!! You guys are funny!!😀

[@kimmkenney6809]

Helpful hint: make sure the hose is in the shot it totally looked like Aaron was peeing in the hole LOL!!!!!!!

[@joanne_niagara]

Haha... I thought so too! :D

[@Rita70.]

My first thought too. What’s wrong with my mind 🙈

[@TheYoghurt42]

Glad I'm not the only one who thought that haha

[@amanuensa]

Thank goodness it wasn't just me!

[@clarefriend1376]

Oh yes, me too! Glad someone posted it🤣🤪

[@elkewheeler]

I’ve been working on cleaning up my colorful language. I’m totally stealing ‘giving him sassafras!” That is definitely one of my favorites.

[@dancer4325]

Wow, that was a great video👍 Aaron is a garden beast and Laura is right behind him🏋️‍♀️💚🌳

[@MichiganGardenGal]

They look so good! 🌳 ❤️

[@jessicagagnon7096]

Not sure why you always apologize for your neighbors noise. They want to fix their property too, and it truly isn't a bother. I only hear it when you actually point it out.

[@carmenbrochu4756]

Did anyone else notice that Benjamin tried starting the gator...hilarious!

[@barbll000]

The trees will ve lovely and imagine how pleasant the shade will be. Glad you hung in there Aaron and worked through the problem.

[@Exercises10]

They look a little close to the fence, what is the spacing needed for these trees? I like the variety. Thanks for the video

[@jin8339]

I think so too. They look awfully close to fence.

[@rcronin1]

Lol I couldn't stop thinking that I too!!!

[@ayina111]

The driveway is still in their property, so I guess for shade maybe

[@billionairegirltobe]

They did mention in past videos plans on expanding or adjusting the driveway. As well as removing some of the fence line. It's likely that they are planting with those future renovations in mind

[@kathleenblundetto1624]

Those trees will look great if they hopefully take! I thought the holes should be wider myself! Property is looking great!

[@razvanmihai3805]

Wooooww ! Now that is a project 😍

[@janetmorrow679]

You guys are amazing. Also never worry about the noise in the back ground!

[@nahlamodita1498]

Love every project you both do in the properties 👏👍

[@Daffodils2Daisies]

Eating my breakfast while watching this video. Laura: “There’s a bunch of baby spiders in there” nooooope! Done with breakfast real fast. 😂

[@lindabullock742]

Great video guys... I thought at the start that Aaron was planting to surprise you Laura at how much he has learned...he was rocking that Biotone and drip system...they are going to be gorgeous. I was a bit surprised to see how close they’re planted to the fence though....🥰😘🇦🇺

[@nurhayatimn6871]

Slowly but surely shaping up nicely. Well done Laura and Aaron!

[@frijolsmom]

Love how well you two work together. Also loved your talking through your thought/design process on how to develop that corner.

[@GrannysGarden]

Well he certainly took that setback on the chin. Most people on discovering that the huge tree that they had just planted had to be moved would have had a hissy fit.

[@smdirksen28]

Have you tried the vine and stump killer on the bind weed? It says it works on the packaging. I think I am going to give it a try, because I deal with it in my garden as well. Loving seeing the new property come together and thank you for showing us so many different aspects of gardening. It feels like I’ll never stop learning from you.

[@robbingarcia4072]

My thoughts exactly! I just bought some to use on nuisance Virginia creeper and smilax vines after seeing her use it in a recent video. So why not try it on bind weed as well?

[@deesa3500]

I just sprayed the bindweeds with the Bonide Burnout this morning (0900), its almost 3 in the afternoon, and those plants are all brown! 😀

[@judithbiller3732]

My back and knees are aching just watching Aaron plant those gorgeous trees😁

[@kevinmacdonald30]

Hi Laura and Aaron can you do another tree tour at some point. I really like trees in a garden I like to see the different types and everything. I think it would also be good to give ideas to people.

[@Laurablushing]

Any plans for a weeping willow on this property? Great video!!

[@alianapaetzell1704]

Does Aaron is edite the videos?? Seem like hes more in the videos, which i love both y'all both working together!

[@11azuresky]

Aliana Paetzell i think there’s another guy. Laura’s been mentioning him in several of previous videos

[@christinenovack6409]

I belive his name is Ken. I know he does editing, I'm unsure about filming.

[@christinaleach5066]

Aaron's still filming and doing, I believe, some editing, but most of it does go their other guy. :)

[@jenniferbassett3001]

You're a lucky lady to have Aaron 😊💪💪⛏️ Laura!! That's a gorgeous 🌲 Great job Laura and Aaron 👍

[@janined8685]

It’s been fun to read so many upbeat comments written by people cheering for Aaron!! Your trees look great in their new home!🏡 You both like to see things planted level and in line, which makes jobs like this go better from the start. It’s great watching the three of you working and being together. Look how much you’ve already got done on your new property and it’s only the first week of July. Now you may want to go find some shade for a bit. 😊
