Seeing the South Garden from above really puts into perspective how far it has come from the hot & dry weedy area it was a few short years ago. So impressive! Congratulations, Garden Answer team!

[@trisharay3572]

it’s like a mini movie!

[@kathrynmilesjackson3237]

So lovely! @NE Sandhiller I’m guessing you’re in the midlands of SC by that handle? I’m watching from Greenville but grew up in NE cola. 🙂

[@nesandhiller5323]

@@kathrynmilesjackson3237 no I'm not actually. There are Sandhills in Nebraska. Awesome ranching country!!

[@kathrynmilesjackson3237]

@@nesandhiller5323 wow! We have Sandhills in North East Columbia 😊 a little strip of sand running across the middle of the state

[@francesmiller8601]

The flowers in the black waste paper baskets are mine that I set up for McCall. We picked them up, and they are in the planters here. I just want to thank you so much for all your videos. By watching you, I researched your family garden shop out and knew I needed to get together with them. The flowers are superb, and im so much in love with them. My clients haven't seen them yet, but they are going to be blown away. You and your mother need to come up and visit them. Thank you so much.

[@SusanKruspe]

Please post a picture of the house when they are placed, please!

[@pamelawoodall5891]

McCall, Idaho = money !!!

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Frances! Would it be possible to send a picture, or pictures, to Laura and Aaron and ask them to show them in one of their videos? We'd love to see them Thank you! Sandy

[@snoopybluejeans]

I'd love to see the end job, maybe after they have established themselves a bit bigger. Hopefully you can make that happen. Either way, it will be a fantastic display.

[@KellysVintagePicks]

Aaron has definitely reached Grand Master Mower status!!! Mesmerizing, indeed! Love the trees and loooved watching Benjamin help plant them. Memories he'll have and remember as those trees grow up with him. Thank you for a great start to my day. Have an awesome weekend! ❤

[@freedomofreligion3248]

LOVED seeing Benjamin kick over that potted plant, as automatically as breathing, when he went to dig the planting hole! So CUTE!!

[@evapanelli1]

Laura - you truly made my day when I saw your restraint passing through the Unique Stone area of the Garden Center. “ Focus : TREES “ LOL - ohhh my goodness, “ NOPE - NOPE - gotta control myself “… I thought of my own exact reaction…. LOVE IT ! Happy Gardening. Blessings from Dallas, Texas. 👋👋👋 👍❤️❤❤🌸💐

[@DebbieRoycroft-gj9hg]

How sweet, “Got to control myself, never easy.” hahaha! Awww Laura, you’re awesome!

[@Toinette2883]

Sweet Benjamin always ready to help! He’s growing so fast.

[@lucieengen7046]

He is so sweet! Loved seeing him helping ❤.

[@RealBradMiller]

They don't call him Sweet B for nuthin'! 😋👏

[@dolliemaesone]

Way to go Benjamin nice work! 😊Aron the mowing is magnificent

[@pomme800]

Love that Benjamin is so invested in the planting❣...shoveling along with Mom & Dad

[@kerryschultz7116]

That grass, with the lines. Clearly a labor of love for Aaron. It looks absolutely beautiful 🤩!!! And my heart just melts watching Benjamin with his little shovel helping you guys. Too cute.

[@altheab.8907]

Oh Laura, Benjamin helping you and Aaron was the best part of this video. How fortunate you are that you will have a lot of these moments recorded that you can look back on throughout your life and the children can look back on as they go through their lives. Precious memories preserved. They will bring you all a lot of joy in later years of time spent together. 🥰

[@deezahm9143]

☕️Good morning to all! So great to see the beautiful tree being planted and Benjamin is the perfect helper. The walkway thru the area will be so nice, and as always, Laura’s vision of ‘connectivity’ is amazing. And those containers adding a lovely touch to the dumpster area…so cool! Have a lovely garden day everyone! 🌼🦋🌸💚

[@niteshimmeror9847]

Romancing the ordinary! She truly knows how to do this!

[@cadre500]

Your south garden property has transformed so quickly from a blank slate to a beautiful garden space. It has been such a joy to witness each step. Laura and Aaron your hard work and passion have been such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing with us. God bless you and your loved ones.

[@carlydougherty1823]

I love that Aaron just says “Do you want some more stuff?” No complaints at all 👏

[@user-qi6yo7xt4l]

Happy wife... happy life. So sweet.

[@camicri4263]

Good morning everyone! Have a blessed weekend 🤗💜🤗 It's going to be gorgeous! Great job Aaron, the grass looks amazing!🤗🤗💜💜

[@melissamcfarland2906]

Your little Benjamin melted my heart! Such a joy to see children enjoying outdoors and helping. God bless you all!

[@jcking6785]

Those locusts will be huge in no time. Benjamin will grow right along with them with memories of helping plant them. So sweet. ❤️The urns are going to be gorgeous as they bulk up. ➡️➡️ The drone shots are THE BOMB! You can never show too many of them!!!! ⬅️⬅️

[@paulinejamisoin5009]

I love how Benjamin is such a great helper with his little spade. Be still my heart. 😊

[@kellybrown2028]

The ending brought tears to my eyes. I have been watching since your townhouse. So happy for you and your family!! So deserved and thank you ❤

[@meghanmorgavan596]

If at all possible (I understand it's not likely), we would LOVE to see that home in Idaho with all those planters! It sounds just stunning 😍

[@lisac.8266]

Laughed out loud when Benjamin had his shovel and started helping. It was so sweet!!! Laughing because it was a happy moment. Not laughing at. 😎✌🏻 And oh my word! How does Aaron mow such straight lines! In my small yard I noticed yesterday I missed a small strip of grass when I mowed Monday. 🤣

[@marmaladesunrise]

Oh my goodness, Laura. It was mesmerizing to watch Aaron mow! He made such straight lines. I just LOVE your husband. You made a fantastic choice when you married Aaron. I'm sure that's visa versa as well. Thank you for such another wonderful vid. P.S. Benjamin helping plant those trees was priceless.

[@judithdomangue9995]

I can see that Aaron is an expert at cutting the lawn. Beautiful job, Aaron. Benjamin is a great helper, as well. Good job, everybody!

[@miketanner4822]

Oh look at the lovely people from the south, hubby is deeply in love with his sweetheart, he does the hard work, the little one is just like, I'm going to be like my dad. God bless you 🙏

[@adayinthegarden3200]

The best part of the entire video today was watching Precious Benjamin help plant trees with his mom & dad! Priceless memory for sure! & That Benjamin-sized shovel with the cute graphics--Adorable!!! ❤ P.S. Thanks for lawn cutting footage!! So that's how Aaron mows the lawn---Very Efficiently!!!💚

[@jaxonjeni]

Oh my goodness, Benjamin and his little shovel, bless his heart. My favourite part. It’s looking wonderful you guys!

[@lindaheter6350]

I loved how you let Benjamin help plant the trees, he is growing up so fast! Also I thought the drone was a fabulous idea so we really got a good look at how beautiful your property is. Laura, you and Arron have done a fantastic job developing the gardens and lawns. I absolutely love your videos and they are truly inspiring and bring me lots of joy! Thank you.❤

[@BrandyDawn]

You guys should ask the customer if they would be willing to send a photo of all those stunning flowers in front of that house in McCall! Now I AM DYING to see the finished product?!!

[@margievaughan2456]

Such a beautiful lawn. Benjamin will always remember & have stories to tell about helping plant the trees. So sweet

[@cathyorseske2564]

I love that Benjamin is always helping with many projects. I love your family and videos. They are very helpful .

[@annehedlund7333]

Aaron's grass is such a success! Just the large area you wanted for breathing, mowing was mesmerizing!

[@maureengee364]

Oh Wow Aron has a new grass dispenser on his riding mower. Nice. Love the trees. Especially loved when B Man is finally getting into projects and helping out. He’s such a Big help. He’s getting so tall and growing so fast. Great job B Man.💯💯💯 Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Good Morning from Sunny Ireland 🫶 we're having a mini heatwave 😍

[@lisastankiewicz1926]

Thank you for the respite today from the wildfire haze and lack of sun in New England. So nice to see some beautiful things being planted and gardens taking shape!

[@elizabethmarie7828]

Almost every video you post I will turn on in the background and just enjoy a peaceful bit of your garden. It's such a great channel and I always know I'm going to see some joyful people doing joyful things 😊❤

[@RLSCS]

Those planters for the window boxes going to someone’s home are so beautiful. Would love to see the house with all of those in.

[@MyBackyardScience]

No matter which direction you turn, the property is just beautiful! 🙂

[@Befunkymonkey]

So excited to see how the back garden by the barn is going to evolve. Who remembers the King tut and supertunia vista bubblegum combo planted by the barn years ago?! Love how you are making the space yours!

[@lisasantoro4724]

i do!

[@barbarawitt9989]

Me as well!

[@marinbandel2574]

Now, how awesome is the fact that in later life, Benjamin can point out these trees and say I planted these with my Mom and Dad when I was little. My heart is full. Hugs from N.C..❤️

[@linsmith2310]

Beautifully and Benjamin what a Big Helper, Aw Cuties!!

[@kimberlee2469]

I love how Benjamin is right in there helping plant the tree 😊

[@barbarajohnson1348]

So doggone cute .what a helper. I have the biggest smile.

[@debbiemauthe3185]

It’s interesting how trees get hit with odd things while the rest do so well. I’m learning a lot about trees from your videos! That was so cute to see your family all digging together. Benjamin is learning so many life skills along with gardening ones that will hopefully stay with him forever. Love that.

[@melissamccoy7962]

The balance and harmony of your area is unmatched and to top it off a totally satisfying overview of mowing in perfectly perfect lines. Thank you for a great Friday video!

[@erinrivas6966]

I could watch the lawn being mowed all day….mesmerizing. 😂 Not to mention how beautifully green it is!

[@staceyallard2692]

Beautiful lawn Aaron. You’ve outdone yourself with the lawn care and maintenance. It really is the cherry on top for the whole property. One day, when Benjamin is “all growd up” he will tell people “I planted that tree with my mom & dad, and that tree there, and that one over there..” what a beautiful blessing. Laura, are those sumacs going to town and spreading or is there something else planted near them?? Great video. Have a wonderful day my GA fam!!! Get out there and get in the dirt!! 😊♥️

[@LindaKing-jr4fz]

Ahh...a family bonding time planting the new tree! So sweet!

[@debrabohn4283]

Teamwork Makes The Dream Work! Loving little BenjaMan's enthusiasm and willingness to help! Everything's looking Fabulous!

[@dianeosgood6594]

Benjamin will remember helping you plant those trees!

[@rachelsparks3201]

Wow, can Aaron come mow for us!? That is absolutely beautiful! It’s wonderful to see how far the yard has come! Thank you always for bringing joy and happiness to our day!

[@renemarquart2615]

Oh Laura...I have to tell you because I am so excited. Viewing your Rose Tour video inspired me so much, that I went to my local nursery and I was able to buy my first David Austin Boscabel rose! I was surprised that they had a couple plus they were on sale. I just thought immediately of you and wished I could get one for you. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@sheiladouglas5258]

Good morning! I just love that Benjamin helped planting the tree. What a wonderful education in life experiences he and Samantha will get growing up on their farm. Beautiful family. The trees are gorgeous, as well as the planters. Loved the video. ❤

[@carricowherd3826]

Laura I had to giggle. You may be a little envious of our rain but when y'all were digging the hole for the tree I was so jealous that you could dig without hitting 5 million rocks. 😂 No digging anything without a pick ax here in sw Missouri.

[@cherylstuckey4358]

…. Oh! I know right? I thought, mercy digging that hole with shovels?!?! Not here! Every place has it’s challenges.

[@DementiaWithGrace]

Oh sweet Benjamin! I remember when he was born. He’s getting so big! When I talk about you Laura, my husband will say Garden Laura or Laura “Last Name”? Mostly I say Garden Laura!! As I mention in other comments, I don’t have a green thumb and never garden, but I live vicariously through you! I watch every episode. Just love your little family so much! Love the process and your artistic style. Be well! ❤

[@kathykoke-drum1510]

It's amazing how you and your husband have evolved your property in to such a beautiful place! ❤❤

[@lesliewatkins7470]

Be still my heart! Seeing Benjamin help you is priceless!❤

[@laya0563]

Oh goodness is it weird my favorite part of the video was Aaron mowing the grass? 😂😂 I do love you Laura. And watching Benjamin with his little shovel was adorable. ❤

[@michelled4042]

Has to be the cutest tree planting ever, with Benjamin's help.😍😍😍

[@katherinecornette5315]

Oh my gosh! McCall Idaho! My grandparents had a place there and were stockholders in the lodge. I have such incredible memories of that lake and the small town! I’m sure it’s completely different from my childhood memories 😊

[@ElPar01]

Benjamin shoveling right alongside you two makes my heart happy! He is PRECIOUS. And Aaron… that mowing is magnificent!!!

[@michelebushnik2874]

Oh gosh Benjamin helping dig warmed my heart, he is an amazing worker! One of my most favorite trees on my property is the locust!! I wish the previous owners had put it out front and center!❤ I've often dreamed of relocating it. But I adore it. The planters look beautiful! I am in love with Aarons diamond cut of the lawn at the end! Bravo Aaron!!!❤

[@katherinec7698]

Thank you! Because of you I was confident enough to put in a drip system in our gardens & pots. It is a gardening game changer!

[@lesliearmstrong3687]

Lawn mowing ASMR. I see a new Garden Answer channel in the works! Can’t wait to see an update on the containers and trees!

[@swankyclass8654]

Good Morning everyone. What a beautiful tree and the family digging the hole. Samatha Grace missed using her shovel 😊. The walkway is going to be a nice grounding/hard scape to the area. Happy Gardening Friday everyone.

[@lindaerickson9898]

Everything is filling in nicely. I loved seeing Benjamin helping plant the tree.

[@natalieb2160]

I love the new trees they are going to look amazing in their new homes. The lawn mowing at the end was soo lovely to watch. I bet Aaron is loving the grassed area. It really is getting a park feel. ❤

[@MountainMapleRanch]

I love how you got distracted!! Story of my life when I go to the garden center.

[@courtneyrenegar4329]

Oh that grass mowing! I could watch that all day!! (but i also really LOVE mowing, so I'm a little jealous of his fun)

[@chulette6029]

I loved the who video but was completely mesmerized by the drone shot of the wild grass blowing in the wind when Aaron went to dump the clippings. 🤩

[@cherylstuckey4358]

Oh! Be still my heart! Watching B Man helping you guys with his shovel…. So sweet! Arron I bet you have the know how - you could pull together some clips of your kiddos and keep them for your family… and a copy could be a sweet Christmas gift for some sweet grandparents. 😊

[@judybresch1186]

Love the drone shot of Aaron mowing the lawn. Watched it three times.❤

[@imagerywritingservices]

In all my years, I have never had a landscaper who collects and removes the clippings. It is a major pet peeve, but I have begrudgingly learned to accept it. I am so glad to see that Aaron hauled off the debris. Way to go Aaron!

[@carolmiller6104]

Adding that Diamond Frost to those pots took them over the top! I can't wait to see what they look like in a month. You inspire me to work on my own garden; thanks Laura and Aaron!!!

[@barbaraann7173]

Love this video....all the feels watching Benjamin with his lil shovel helping to dig, then fill in the planted trees...what memories he'll have as he grows older watching those very trees grow....Precious memories in the making! Much love from BC Canada Zone 3A ....♥

[@robingrunzweig3940]

i keep trying to fast forward in my mind the look of this property in 5, 10, 15 years... what a beautiful place it is and will be... love seeing Benjamin helping 🥰 those urns are gorgeous and the flowers will have quite an impact... and i always think about the pasture it was when i see these overhead shots... in such a short time, you've created such beauty!! and that grass!!! ahhhhhhh.... 🥰❤thanks for the video!! 🥰❤

[@jgg7377]

Me too! And I think about when they retire one day and if in there plans they want to do gardening tours etc. If they have thought about where people would park! Maybe there is more land around them that they could purchase????? 🌸🌼🌺

[@annecrooker5333]

Anyone else see those two large planters and think they would be a beautiful centerpiece in both the center of the Hartley garden and or the center of the new patio? Everything looks beautiful 🤩

[@barbaracarlson1331]

Good morning! The planters are all lovely! Yes, more trees and love the mowing patterns and the drone footage! So pretty!

[@kimberlyheibel8759]

I love how your property has come out. The change is dramatic. Love your Mom's hat. I've been looking for one with a wide brim like that for when I'm gardening.

[@kathydove5429]

Good morning from Missouri!! I love how even planting trees are a family event! Laura, you have wonderful help!! Everything looks so good!!

[@connie7233]

My goodness! Those planters are huge! When Laura goes behind them, it looks like she got planted too!

[@karacrawford7393]

Love the grass cutting video…it amazes me in a few short years how mature the new property already looks❤

[@michellemaxey8679]

I can imagine when the new tree gets bigger (the one by the barn) along with the maple across from it by the chicken coop, will form sort of a grand entrance into that part of the driveway! How exciting!! ❤

[@mendybradley5682]

Thanks Aaron for capturing the mowing, you've got that lawn looking beautiful!

[@lyndakelley2377]

Benjamin is so adorable and what a great help he is.

[@nelliehedrick3147]

You are the wonder woman of trees and flowers and veggies!! ❤ I love the way you and hubby let the kiddo's help...❤❤❤❤

[@blk123]

Love the grass catcher on your lawnmower that dumps itself. What a huge help that would be. As I am getting older this would be very helpful.

[@tara4586]

Great Job Benjamin!! You're such a big helper!! My daughter loves helping me too! It takes a little bit longer, but man, the pride they have knowing they are a part of something is worth it all!

[@jillr5985]

It’s going to be so fun to see updates on your containers this season! The recipes you’ve planted have been absolutely gorgeous!!

[@michelesimpson2237]

Love it. Benjamin can say in 20 years I planted my first tree and the tree will be huge.

[@lucpar23]

You have created such an amazing oasis. So beautiful

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

Wow. The lawn being mowed, and the end result of it, was so satisfying to see! What a GORGEOUS estate you guys are making for yourselves!! It was SO SMART to have bought up the land surrounding you. There are so many homes surrounding you now!!

[@carolinaochoa7900]

How about swapping those lovely Gallery containers with the black square ones in the cut flower garden? Seems like a bit of a waste to have them next to the dumpster 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Yrutnec1]

So ~~~~~ PRETTY ~~~~~~~ and once again so encouraging !!! Love the PINK plants and the mowing of the grass.....The drone shot is so WONDERFUL....Thank you both so much!

[@lindabolin9989]

Your son was so cute trying to help mom,dad!

[@sandraengstrand2784]

Always fun to get in a visit to the garden center!! So lucky (for us) and blessed you are close! Nice mowing Aaron!!! 💕🌿

[@micheleg1744]

Oh WOW Aaron! The passion you have for that grass! My husband is exactly the same as you… with his “John Deere” lawn mower and all! We took so much advice from you and our neighbors cannot stop complementing our grass. Do you have something on your lawn mower to have so defined lines? Thank you and Laura for all your hard work and sharing your beautiful home.

[@catp.6182]

you're such an inspiration...and I love your beautiful mom nearly as much as I love you, hard working women all of us!...x

[@darinbennett3638]

Aaron, the mowing is a top-shelf job for sure. If you're like me, it's pure therapy to be on the mower and to make straight lines so that the end product is as nice as the gardens...it all comes together to make the whole picture. Great to see B-Man in the mix of planting the trees. The memories being made are not only for a lifetime...they will be for generations to come. Speaking of B-Man...we planted our first B-Man dahlia from Swan Island Dahlias this year and we're excited to see it grow.

[@themanwithnoname7576]

The front yard grass looks great. Hank Hill would strongly approve.

[@marlystemen1875]

I didn’t realize how much I miss you with my morning coffee. My internet and cable was down all day yesterday. I so enjoyed catching up and was surprised there was one on the highlight channel. Was thinking Benjamin needed a bigger shovel but when he just held it the shovel looked the correct size. Just wanted you to know how much I enjoy your channel

[@heidieverett8394]

Benjamin and his little shovel gave me life today!
