Planting Perennial Gaura & Shaping Boxwoods! 🌸✂️💚// Garden Answer

[@caseyr8728]

Oh my goodness. Aaron is such a trooper. Reminds me of my husband. He's such a trooper when I decide to buy a load of plants with huge root balls and I have him digging the holes. Little to no complaints. Kudos to those husbands helping their plant obsessed ladies out. 😂

[@luckyelfie]

My husband is pretty awesome, but I may need to borrow yours. Mine loves to brag about the garden, but work in it? I could sure use a little muscle in mine.

[@DebateDeliberate]

And there are some of us husbands who are the gardeners in the family. My wife likes to enjoy the garden more than work in it. Though she does help me keep the weeds at bay :)

[@marge3157]

Lucky ladies! Mine doesn't mow the grass 🤣

[@SOLOFEYVERDAD]

I know what you mean my hubby is always ready to help and at the end he gives me the credit. He says it's my mind that dreams it up he only helps to make it happen. Thank God for great hubby's❣️

[@Fursflowersnfoliage]

My husband just ask me to place them and he does the planting. But i handle the pots lol

[@MelSr8]

Cracks me up when Aaron does something and you freak out a little. He’s a good man and you’re a great pair.

[@sophiagager]

I love it when she rambles(It makes me feel like I'm right there with her). I wish she could talk all day to us :) I also wish she could take us with her to water the plants.... I remember watching the older videos a long time ago and she seemed nervous. Now she is much more comfortable and more herself now that I love it. I'm glad that Aaron and Laura have evolved into this amazing channel..

[@melanieb2461]

I really love how your cat shows up for his 15 minutes in almost every video. Think he needs his own channel.

[@lfc286]

When Aaron was trimming the box woods I was holding my breath. I so impressed with your restraint Laura. I was tense. 🤣

[@Fursflowersnfoliage]

I came to say this ! lol But thought it was`nt just me so I decided to read first LOL

[@onthewrightpath430]

[@elainemcdonald1463]

Just had to share,, I was in my garden centre yesterday shopping and I approached 3 strangers and told them they need to watch your channel, that’s how much I love you guys and I’ve only been here bout 4 weeks myself, I gave up baking and am learning gardening during lockdown, greetings from Ireland🇮🇪😊❤️

[@LULC0759]

In Ireland,...do you follow Bealtaine Cottage?

[@elainemcdonald1463]

JLC no can’t say I heard of them, it’s usually pots/containers I’m interested in and Laura does plenty of those so I’m just finding my feet at the mo, but thanx I will look them up now that you’ve mentioned them😃

[@Daffodils2Daisies]

We are moving from a concrete high rise condo into a house with a yard this year and I’m starting your videos from the beginning. I’m so excited to learn how to garden when I know absolutely nothing! ❤️🌲

[@cathybranly1839]

So fun to have a blank slate! I am still a beginner; you will learn lots from Laura. I really learned to make sure you measure the width of Perennial plants because they grow like the tag says. And it usually takes a couple years for them to really take off. Enjoy your new garden!

[@RumoHasIt]

We did the same thing this January and Ive become garden obsessed. You are going to have so much fun! Good luck!

[@petalacres3686]

Congratulations that is sooo exciting!! I had a blank slate as well, and planted 100 trees, bushes, and flowers. My bank account took a huge hit thanks to Garden Answer. Lol. But I’m finally loving my yard. Have lots of fun!!!

[@SOLOFEYVERDAD]

Congratulations 🎉 that's so wonderful ❣️

[@Daymickey]

I'm so excited for you! They have been on quite a journey since the beginning and you'll learn SO MUCH watching her! Keep a notebook by you.😊

Those gaura are going to be just beautiful! Humidity is something this Alabama girl can relate to. However, we glisten not sweat. 😉🥵🤣

[@gardenfairy9792]

Rebecca I like your comment, "we glisten not sweat". 🙂

[@ASH-kj9xt]

You Alabama girls may “glisten”, but this Louisiana girl pours pure water from my head. My grandma used to say it was an Irish curse because our heads sweat...our bodies, not so much! 🤣🤣🥵🥵

[@carlaradke4066]

I am a puddle usually. I sweat head to toe. Heartland - KC.

My sister and I say glisten up here in Iowa too!!

[@truebluedaphne9411]

The sound of water from the fountain ... blissfully soothing!⛲️

[@pinkfrangipani5131]

I absolutely love the rusty patina on the arbour. What an incredibly beautiful structure. Thanks for posting the photo of the clematis climbing over the arbour. Looks magical. You were fortunate to ‘inherit’ that piece from the previous owner. Love how you didn’t correct Aaron for using the shears the wrong way. He did a great job. You must have humidity now as you’ve experienced quite a bit of rain. I live in Sydney, Australia and we have humidity for about six months of the year. I like the story you shared about the statue of the girl in that garden corner when you went on a tour. Lovely that you now own the place - the power of positive visualisation.

[@nanamoran1126]

Aaron is my hero! To heck with in front of the camera - in front of Laura?!?! THAT would be nerve wracking:). I planted my first gaura this year because I love it so much in your corner garden. I’ve learned about so many plants I ignored in the past, you’ve opened my eyes and my garden is lovelier for it. Thank you for sharing your passion😊

[@Sherry61]

Everything is so beautiful and very therapeutic to watch as the Lord has given us the beautiful greenery’s to richly enjoy and so pleasing to the eye and heart! O what beauty Heaven must display! God bless you and your precious family! Thanks for sharing your gifting’s in the great outdoors with us!

[@UberHowie]

When Aaron was cutting the boxwood I kept waiting for her to say "never mind I'll do it" 😄

[@Tsb702]

Lol me too!

[@camicri4263]

I know...😂😂😂

[@dianaash8077]

He did give it up pretty fast! lol

[@___Laura]

Those red spots on the leaves! I totally would've thought they were some sort of bug damage or disease if you hadn't told us that it was supposed to be like that.

[@maureenlynn1]

I would’ve thought the same thing lol

[@beverlygreene4948]

That is what I have always thought! Like black spot on roses

[@Faefire]

I'm still not entirely sure, if that's not a fungus or something. I keep telling myself "Laura would have known, if it was bad" but I can't help it. It looks damaged to me.

[@TheMag625]

Benjamin is just so cute!!!!!! His little voice saying okay 💖💖💖💖

[@AK-st1vn]

I love your videos, but my absolute favorite is watching "little man" toddle around, I love how you allow him to learn and be involved! Thank you!

[@Mommajozy1]

You're such a pretty young lady, and professional, yet When you talk to "us" I always feel you're talkin to ME !! I don't have a garden anymore, but so enjoy "our" chats every day. Your son is a doll ! I cheated on you today, and watched another garden person..... Ever heard of a Chronanthus Retusus ? Called a Chinese Fringetree. Saw one on that show that was FULL GROWN, and in full bloom. Oh my goodness, what a spectacular show !!!! Love you and your family!! See ya tomorrow !!! 😊

[@brianandtamiolson2330]

That was fun watching Aaron trim the boxwood.

[@jackiezerres3753]

Laura, do you or Aaron sharpen your own tools? I'd love a video on sharpening shears, pruners, shovels, etc. I always look forward to your content - so much practical info - thank you! 💕

[@scribney]

They did one a while back. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6vTfHehfrSegK8

[@samantha.irenes]

I'm in Minneapolis, things are so scary and uncertain right now, but I just wanted to say thank you for providing some normalcy and calm! Plants are always there for us.

[@carlaradke4066]

Yes the news stories look very scary. Stay safe.

[@pamketron]

I love Guara. I’ve always had a problem with it not coming back until I used Biotone last year when I planted it. I’m happy to say that the ones I planted with the Biotone came back. The ones that I planted before I got my Biotone, did not come back. Will be buying more this year and definitely planting with the Biotone. Everything I planted using Biotone came back beautiful this year. It does make a difference for any home gardener wondering about spending the extra for it. I also noticed a petite Guara this year. Will be planting some of those this year. I love the whimsical and magical look of Guara in my beds. Thanks Y’all for another family fun video!!! ☀️💜🌸 PS - Humidity - Welcome to my world. It is always humid here in the summer in Tennessee. A pony tail in my hair is a must!!! Lol 😂

[@LB-vl3qn]

When I saw all the white, I thought you were going to put these in your moon garden. I hope you will; I would. I laughed out loud when the truth came out: "Technically they're yours, too, but I think of them as more mine," referring to the box woods. Well, Aaron, now you know. Benjamin makes every video that much sweeter, and Russell, too. He is such an agreeable child; a real blessing, that. ~ Lisa

[@EmIsLegend]

I love how you've made a name for yourself while making your gardens spectacular. If that doesn't scream "Girl Boss" I don't know what does!

[@melness6621]

This one has it all..Aaron, Benjamin,Russell, the gator,beautiful gardens!

[@iartistdotme]

Guara is my FAVORITE flower - magical and whirling butterflies is a perfect name. It seems alive when there is a breeze. I had a butterfly garden (gone now) that was filled with all kinds of butterfly plants but Guara was always my favorite. They were upright! I have since planted two more - one pink and another deep pink and they sprawl - but they also root in and grow more. I didn't know there were perennial and annual ones. Here in 9a Florida (humid and hot) they all die back over winter then come back. I love how your seem to hover over that garden and could sit there to watch the show for hours.

[@cindybonem494]

84% humidity in Michigan and it was 89° yesterday, today it’s 58° 84% humidity. My daughter started watching your videos, you should see the changes she has made to her yard already, it’s looking beautiful and she is becoming more confident in what she does. Thanks for the videos.

[@mrsmetalhead666]

[@chasebrady7894]

Is it just me or is it SOO satisfying when they trim the box woods

[@lindatozier5438]

I start my day out watching your blog first thing in the morning. You really inspire me to do more in my garden. I just started my boxwood hedge last year; when I went to shape them I could not find my hedge shears and had to buy new ones. I follow Linda Vater as well as you I remembered her recommending Barnel 27.5-Inch Lightweight Straight Blade Hedge Shears, ultra lightweight aluminum handles and body. Love these, the best purchase I've made so far this year, so much lighter than my old ones.

[@ASH-kj9xt]

Linda Tozier I also use these and they are one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! Love the light weight and the scissor tips. Great for precision and they don’t bruise the foliage as bad as my hedge trimmers. 🙌

[@mayrabutler8704]

I’m obsessed with this channel.

[@crickettjd]

I always loved Gaura; Whirling Butterfly was the variety I planted and it was so aetherial!!! I'm so happy you're leaving the wrought iron rusty, I love that patina too!!!

[@LaurieEggleston37]

My mom used to call Guara "Bee Blossom". I thought of her the minute I saw the title. Thank you for sharing this video with us. It was a great way to enjoy my morning coffee! If I had a little more sun in my gardens this would be a fun choice!

[@marshamauldin6284]

Yes, we Oklahomans know humidity and feel you, girl! But the gardens are worth it. Thanks for the daily videos!

[@carolxyz8749]

Hehe!!! Glad Aaron trimmed that boxwood!!! I felt the pressure 🤣🤣🤣. Nice restraint Laura🤩

[@ravenchick2]

Aaron was such a good sport. I didn’t LOL when he said he was done and handing the job back to you. Smart man. 😄

[@elsiealba-limas8408]

I think your home and especially your garden is the most beautiful that I have ever seen. You are such a blessed individual. You know what your calling is and you are superb at it. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@corinnemisko6139]

Your videos are such a great start to my day. Although they often make me wish I had more space to try some of the things you share. Also, I love your honesty, makes me giggle. Oh... and thank God you don't do pure perfection, that and the fact that you admit to mistakes or plants not working out gives the redt of us hope. 😅

[@megg4117]

Love seeing Aaron in the videos. It’s such a pleasure seeing you both working together. Seeing him in videos inspires my husband to love gardening too! ❤️

[@ASH-kj9xt]

Laura, you made me laugh when talking about the humidity there. 😂 Come down to south Louisiana and garden with me! Even though I’ve lived here most of my life, I start sweating the minute I walk out the door! I have to start with a hat so the band can keep the sweat out of my eyes! We could get you acclimated real quick, then you could tolerate that 45% humidity with ease. That’s a “feel good air” day for us since our humidity levels rarely get below 65% this time of year! 😂😂 Also, the guara grows wild here! I love it and have it all over in (and out) of my gardens, both the white and dark pink varieties. It’s so beautiful when we get a breeze! Thanks for sharing the boxwood trimming. I’ve got some I need to tackle, but it’s always last on the list. 😕. Hope y’all have a great weekend! Thanks again for this video! 🙌💚🌿🌳

[@lizpoole82]

I feel you on the humidity, neighbor! Texas coastal, zone 9a. I am between Galveston nd Houston.

Guara is a wonderful native. You're right about it being a carefree plant. I planted a new variety this Spring with solid red leaves. Anxious to see how it performs.

Gaura is one plant I really love! I was driving along one time, saw it planted in front of someone’s house and had to stop and ask them what it was. It’s such a delightful, whimsical plant! I can’t wait to see them all in bloom.

Oh ya you got it. We live in south Texas where most days are 80% humidity. With high temps to go with it you can only make mad dashes to work in the flowerbeds or yard. We have to mow around rain schedules too and wait for the ground to dry. I can’t have most of the plants you have and that is why I love your videos. Thank you for all the hard work you do so I can enjoy them.

[@VMCCompany]

Great job on the Boxwoods! Finished is better than perfect and they look good to me! I took hedge trimmers to mine this spring which was a MISTAKE. It's better to do it by hand. Keep up the good work and keep these videos coming - you help me start my day. Thank you!

“It is so humid today!” Where I live, in Central Texas zone 8, we have year round average humidity of 70%. When it gets into the 100’s, it is unbearable in my garden. Shade doesn’t even matter. Lol. I love Gahra. I discovered it’s beauty last year and just can’t get enough of it. It all comes back for me? I didn’t know there was an annual? Is that because of the zone difference? I never understood the high number of the zone. Oh well. That garden will shine this year for sure. Tfs. 👏🏻💕👏🏻. Oh, way to go, Aaron! Woo hoo!

[@kristycollins7169]

This is my absolute favorite garden in your entire yard. (I think I say that about them all though) The gaura has always seemed so magical when it is peaking over the top of the boxwoods. You did a video last year planting something in the back formal garden and you showed a view of this corner garden in full bloom and I just swooned! I want to repeat it in my own yard! I'm so happy you are sticking with the gaura in this area! Great video! Thanks for sharing!
