Unloading Over 3000 Plants at the Garden Center! 😱🌿🙌 // Garden Answer

[@janiceolafson7791]

Nice to see more of your dad! Your parents are so blessed to have their two lovely daughters supporting them with help at the garden centre. Now we need to get to meet your brother more!

[@Toinette2883]

Nothing better then a family run business. You guys are like a fine oiled machine, so awesome to watch❣️

[@nancyadams2309]

Everyone is working together like a coordinated dance team. Laura is placing those pallets out like she’s dealing cards!

[@Stephanie-cq8mf]

I’m really loving these videos of your time down at the garden center. And your parent’s garden. They add so much to your already awesome channel. Thanks for sharing!

[@mariekelly4849]

"Good luck with that!" You've gotta love the honest voice of experience. He escapes the videos often, but when you catch him, he's great. Your family if just fun to watch. Thanks for including us.

[@marinbandel2574]

Definitely need a close up of the butterfly plants your Mom plans to put near her pool. Could you give us a close up of these plants later??? Love this video!!

[@tracie3]

We have butterfly plants! They are so beautiful! Love anything that attracts butterflies too! 💕🦋

[@SweetStuffOnMonarchLane]

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

Your attitude is so infectious Laura! I mean it's as if I'm receiving a shipment of a 1000 plants too! I make it a concerted effort to catch you at the beginning of every day. It's the jolt of positivity we all need in these weird times. Thank you!

Your dad rocks. Ha! Laura you drive the forklift Like A Boss! I'm curious about those butterflies of your mom's -- a sneak peak of a future butterfly garden tour? Fun video (as always)! Thank You!!

[@RC-mc6rc]

I wish she showed them more

[@Sisteryoda1440]

I was wondering if they were a live feature or covered in just moss.

I wish we had a garden center like Andrews!

[@karenross3457]

So do I! There are so few nurseries here that the prices are ridiculous !

[@rayandmarythomas4719]

We have a fabulous family owned garden center here in Virginia- Boulevard Flowers on Ruffin Mill in Colonial Heights, it’s a plethora of plants and knowledgeable family!

[@juliafiore120]

I’m intrigued by the butterfly 🦋 pots for your Mom’s house! Do tell😊

[@donnafernandez4058]

I laughed out loud when your Dad said, well good luck with that one. If anyone is going to have good luck with those Magnolia trees it’s gonna be you Laura! 🦋

[@MsKoofer]

I love seeing the behind the scenes at the garden center. I was amazed at the number of plants you receive and couldn’t believe that many people are planting that many plants, but then I thought, but half of those plants are for Laura!

[@kmesaros2427]

Bracken Brown Beauty Magnolia trees are gorgeous. I'm in zone 6a with more alkaline soil and have successfully grown a huge one in my yard. The key is to plant it in a protected area, on the east or south side of your house so it doesn't take a direct hit from the cold winter winds. You and your mom have got this!

[@Yvonne_ennovY]

(Laura's thought on the Burning Bush plant that immediately piqued my interest) "they seem like such a common plant...well, they are around here." My thoughts exactly when she and her mom got excited about the magnolia. 😄 I was shocked at their excitement because it is EVERYWHERE in central NC/7b. It's so intriguing to see and hear what we're all drawn to, based on what our zones dictate/prohibit. Praying that your magnolia thrives and brings you lots of joy Laura! 🙏🏾🥰

[@jackielaures4060]

I can’t help but think that Dad is my spirit animal this morning, seeing as I haven’t finished my coffee yet 😂❤️ his energy is refreshing, and would give me the push to keep that magnolia alive lol. “Think I can’t do it? BET!!” Haha

[@tinam9844]

I just love when you magically let us kind of do some "Spring" shopping with you. This also helps us get great ideas of what to shop and look for in our Gardens 👏

[@sandieweatherup]

Yup gardeners live by the 10 day forecast.😊 I think Monica is adorable and so smart wearing that coat. A hard worker for sure. Awesome forklift skills you have.

[@oakanna44]

That unloading time-lapse was SO SATISFYING!! I used to work at a large garden center, and kind of miss those busy truck days. But now I work for Jack Barnwell down here in Naples so we don't have big shipments like this anymore, but my current job is one I couldn't be happier with!! 🌿

[@gingersalmons2314]

This was amazing. You mom’s butterflies looked interesting. Can’t imagine living where you can grow all those plants. You family works as a team, that is wonderful. This was Fun. Thank you.

[@ransfordrowe6409]

So much work went into setting up the stock at garden centre.Nice seeing your mum and dad.First time I have seen your dad on camera

[@mariafolch8067]

He's been on previous videos but not for as long as she showed him on this one. Nice to see him interacting with them.

[@lauraduchek5080]

I love the behind-the-scenes toursnof garden center. Puts things in perspective. I love that twisty tree on pallet by muddy area you avoided. It looks fun!

[@dannac_8888]

Laura's going to wonder why her cheeks are so sore tonight! I think she smiled from ear to ear for 12 HOURS straight! I know because WE DID TOO watching as our palms started itching in need of grabbing an auger and an odd urge to smell BIOTONE came over us! That was a BLAST! MORE PLEASE! 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

[@xoallison12ox]

Laura and Aaron, thank you for bringing us along and showing us a snippet of your time, home, work, and life. I absolutely love all the acres of land and endless creativity you all have!

[@MicheleLHarvey]

New plants=Hope! In a world which makes less sense every day, spring coming and new plants are a balm to the soul. Thanks for the exciting walk through!

[@nvc4728]

I get so excited just watching Laura get excited about all the new shipments. I love magnolias too!! Those leaves are big and beautiful!

[@leescungio8984]

You always say how being at the garden center fills your soul, your enthusiasm and excitement bring smiles to us and in turn fill our souls! I am so glad that you choose to bring us along!! So great seeing you and your family all working together!!

[@shelleythomas1811]

I’m so jealous, the variety and amount of plants is amazing.

[@vailjeavons6338]

Love watching the dynamics of how a garden center sets up their plant orders for the coming season... It has been an added bonus getting to know your parents garden center, and especially your mom! Your mom is so personable and sweet! Thank You for these videos‼️

[@debbielencioni4257]

At this moment it is so nice to live vicariously through you Laura. We are in NE IL and we are currently getting snow. So anxious for Spring and seeing the shipment come in of trees and plants to your parent's store has made my day.

[@christycoalson36]

Good morning GA family 🌅 i just love you taking us with you to the garden center 💞 It feeds my soul. Monica needs more screen time. She's so fun 😊. And as always seeing your mom n dad is a treat. Negative Nancy 😂😂

Ditto here on Monica - she’s so fun! Your Dad is a hoot, Laura - need more of him too. He’s the opposite of your Mom. 😂

Oh my gosh… I love love love these videos Laura! I am very slowly designing our large plot of land and you never fail to make me think about different options. And then to see them at your parents place makes me feel so invigorated and ready to keep adding to my list of wants. Thank you for doing this for us. It never ever gets boring!

[@MisBunnypics]

I've had a brown beauty growing in alkaline soil zone 6b Ohio for almost 20 years in a semi protected spot near larger maple trees. If I put some soil acidifier and hollytone down it blooms if not it really doesn't. If it's a really bad winter it looses it's leaves if not stays evergreen. Really grows just fine I think you'll have no problem.

[@Madeen1982]

I always love videos at the garden center. Makes me want to open one. 😊

[@pamnapier-uhl1362]

I found myself walking through a garden center and before getting to the plant I knew what it was. This is thanks to you!! The education you give is so rich. I am just filled to the top with joy looking at plants and trees in ANY season. Thank you for all you and your family do to spread the joy!

[@ozarkview928]

I understand now how you know and recognize so many plant names ! Unloading , getting a count then organizing you’d get to view it three times then and all those plants need to be watered numerous times, sold and loaded . Working there a few years you’d become a pro ! How fun !

[@gardentherapySOS]

Double bonus last week when I got to meet your mom in person at Andrew's Seed AND come home with 6 new fruit trees! She is just as lovely in person!

What were those "butterflies" that your mom got? Were they plants? Trees? How did they get to that shape? I was really intrigued by those spirally-shaped trees as well. I can't wait until you go through and show us all the things that came in. Please (please!) give us more information on these trees that I've never seen before.

[@jeanieh9386]

I want to know about the butterflies too!

[@jcking6785]

I think they were junipers that have been pruned severely and trained to grow on a butterfly shaped frame…

Just visited 4 Garden Centers this weekend and came home with 9 Vivid Azaleas and 122 flowers in 2x2 cells. Pentas, Snapdragons, Angelonias, Gazanias, Beacon Impatiens, and a Roma tomato, a Lavender, a Peppermint, and a Sweet Banana Pepper. Had to buy all this way as our HOA doesn't allow raised beds, greenhouses, or cold frames - so no seed starting for me! I am in zone 9A and laugh a little about "winter interest" (as a native Floridian I'm still waiting for a "true" winter). In 62 years I've seen snow flurries here, but never a sustaining cold! By the way the high today is 89!🌞
