Warning, very long post ahead! I started watching your channel in 2020. My husband had just passed away (April) and I was watching KZread and Facebook videos to just get mindless. Your videos were ‘recommended’ and I just decided to watch one. In that video you mentioned that you lived in Ontario Oregon. That peaked my curiosity because I grew up in Ontario California. I was hooked immediately by your natural demeanor and kindness to your audience. So, after watching the one video, I went back as far as I could, and begin watching every video you had put out. It just gave me a lot of peace. No drama just great content. I love watching home improvement videos anyway so watching garden improvement videos were right up my alley. In August of that same year I went back to California to visit my family, I now live in Tennessee, and have lived away from California since I was married in 1976. I found out that my family was interested in moving to Idaho. So they took a quick trip to Idaho and came back and said we love it and we are going to move there. My sister all her adult children and one of her adult grandsons along with all their families, moved to Idaho within a couple of months. My parents moved there also and lived with my sister and her husband. Sadly they passed away at the end of 2020. Both within 13 days of each other. I immediately told my family about your channel and told them they needed to watch you to know how to take care of their gardens. They all love to grow flowers, plants and vegetables. My niece and her husband ended up in Payette right near the border of Oregon, and Idaho. She started watching your videos and visiting your parent’s garden center and just loves it. On one of my visits there I also visited your parents garden center. It was great looking at everything I had seen on KZread for two years and now seeing everything in person was amazing. I met a very sweet employee, and we had a great conversation and I told them how I had accidentally ran across your videos on KZread and then Lo and behold my family all moved from California to Idaho and are benefiting from your videos. It’s been four years this month that I lost my amazing husband and so much has changed but I wanted to say thank you for being a part of my grief healing. Sounds crazy I know but it was such a blessing to watch your family grow and your garden grow too. God used a garden channel to help me through long lonely days. Now my life is normal and completely peaceful and busy….. But I’m completely hooked on Garden Answer!! Thanks again for just doing what you love and sharing it with us! You made a difference where you never thought you would!

So sorry for your loss Jana. I totally get it.... I lost my husband when I was 32 (almost 30 years ago now) and since we didn't have You Tube back then my thing was all the shelter magazines, So. Living, BHG, Traditional Home. I would grab a huge pile of old ones at my mom's house and sit on my bed til 2 or 3am just looking at them. Eventually I was able to sleep again. Then I remarried (but not until over a decade later) and my life has been amazing. Lo and behold, I married a Marine at the beginning of the war, so once again I had some hours to fill, even with kids in the house. I would recommend watching "The Office" if you haven't seen it yet. Super fun and funny. It got me through some tough deployments. But hang in there. You never know what God has in store for you, and you will honor your husband by living the best life you can, no matter where it takes you! Hugs from Atlanta!

"That's the best thing about gardening. Just being out here doing it." Truer words have never been spoken.

I have an old bread knife I use for dividing that cuts through crowns like nothing! Take a clump of daylilies and turn them in to dozens!! Any perennial poking their head up, gets lifted, divided by at least a third, a little shot of organic fertilizer in the hole, and then planted back, and then I have more plants to put elsewhere, or share with the neighbor!

One of our older neighbors offered us free perennials for helping them divide theirs and weed their garden. A few other neighbors heard about our help and offered us the same deal! We now have lovely bearded white and purple iris throughout our garden and it was all for free!

I love plant math. Dividing plants. FREE! Yes yes

I LOVE starting my day with your garden! May I suggest a tip with editing (and before everyone jumps on me, this is NOT in any way a criticism). When you are making cuts and things, I know speeding up the video can sometimes be necessary, but I notice the sped-up scenes recently are "extra" fast. More than your previous videos. Kind of hard to see what your doing. Honestly, what you may find mundane to watch, a ton of us enjoy! 😊 Much love to you and your family! ❤

I found my alliums(serenity or millennium) at HD and had been looking for more every year since. Planted mine a several years ago. Next to a young phantom hydrangea and only saw blooms the first 2 years. Last year, I finally realized the problem. My hydrangea had grown so large that it blocks the sun they love, but I was terrified to move them. I just got the courage a few days ago. Took 3 alliums and created 13 plants. Placed in full sun and I’m so darn excited to see blooms this year. Fingers crossed. US South Zone 8a.

What is HD? I got alliums that I dug up from my husband’s grandmother yard when she passed..didn’t know what they were when I dug them up because they weren’t in bloom and there was tons of bulbs up and down her pathway. I planted a bunch in a rectangular oil pan I found in her garage and they have come up every year…I do feed all my bulbs spring and fall with bone meal. This year the oil pan corner broke apart from rust and the soil and bulbs spilled out and are growing underneath the leaves. Need to plant in containers and figure out placement later as we have a fence halfway done and I know we will be staining when the weather warms up. My fear is they will get trampled on while the fence is still being worked on. Thank you for your comment so I can get my alliums in containers. ❤️ from Seattle zone 8b

The other thing to do with dividing plants is to share and trade with friends to add diversity to your garden without spending more money

Seeing dirt all over you made me happy! You just beamed! Kinda feel digging dividing just gardening is your jam ! Your joy is infectious!! Great info 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's so valuable to see exactly how to divide different types of plants, so it's greatly appreciated how much detail you show us, and how close up the camera is. Thank you!

Me too. Very grateful for the detailed explanation and then showing us how. I know I have struggled with the finer points on this topic.

Those allium rootballs really showed the change from native soil to current on top. What a change!

Laura, you’re always so sweet too worry about us not being able to hear you, but my experience has been that I’ve never had a problem hearing you even when you think your mic is turned off. I think you must have really good recording equipment!

This is how we have a spring plant sale at MSU Tollgate gardens! We dig up all the plants that need dividing and pot them up in gallon containers. We only charge $6 a plant in June after they have sized up in June. It’s a win-win for everyone-we make money to support the garden, the plants benefit and the customers get inexpensive plants. ☺️

Next best thing to planting more plants is planting more FREE plants. Love it. Can’t wait to see the play set go in. Your kids will love it. One thing I would suggest you do is prepare now for putting up shade sails at least until trees get bigger for shade. We put a set in for our grandkids and they love it. They will spend hours playing on it except when it is real hot. I live in high desert also. A shade sail or 2 angled just right will extend their playtime well into the hottest part of the summer and it will be more comfortable for the grownups that are watching the kids. Love all your videos.

After a quiet Winter, I am absolutely LOVING all of your Spring projects. And I can see that you are too.😀

Ornamental grasses are so hard to dig up. But I think the most difficult thing I ever saw you dig up was that Redbud tree. Yet you both survived. It was a battle of the wills going on.😊

This reminds me of my mom and grandma. When I was a kid, they each worked in the yard and garden devising perennials and spread the plants out and traded between each other and the neighbors. I was lucky to be on the receiving end of my neighbor as she thinned out her iris. I have to smile at the play area going in. It’s going to be so fun for the kids and their cousins and friends!!💚💚💚

I am so happy for Benjamin and Samantha Grace to have a play center! Not that they don't have an exciting playground in your whole yard, but something that is just for them. Thank you for showing us how to divide perennials again, great reminder, and free plants!

I’ll take Laura with beeping in the background over no Laura any day!! (Love seeing the wind blow your hair off your beautiful face)!

16:25 - seeing you care for your knees by using a kneeling pad makes me happy. It really helps as you get a bit older with your body movement. 👍😊

We are still having snow here in AK!!!!! I can't believe how many plants and flowers are awake in your garden!!!!!!! So fun!!!!!

Loved the motivation this gave me to get out today in 46 degrees sunny weather to begin my spring cleanup here in zone 7. I am newly retired, garden neophyte, with minimal experience but garden loving all my 66 years! My grandma had homegrown krout in her crock when she passed at age 98! My mom had her garden into her 80’s when her knees gave out, so I have some years to get this garden thing figured out! The birds are calling me❤️

This might be the most satisfying Garden Answer video I’ve ever seen!!! Dividing perennials makes me feel better about spending way too much money at the garden center this time of year!

it's a good thing I have to go to work now. Otherwise my back yard would be torn up and planted!! Much easier on back this way😉😂 Have a Great Day Everyone!

Thank you for doing normal garden work again. It’s refreshing to see a break from the expensive buying (and gifted) and back to what made your channel so popular. Keep it up!

Good morning Laura and family! So satisfying to see how many plants you can get from a clump. Love it! I have a big patch of irises that need to be divided but I have to do it in the fall. That's going to be a fun area for the kids! Blessings 💞🙏🏻

Enjoy watching plants being divided ! A play area for the kids, horses one day ! Laura, are y'all going to re-name the "homestead" ? Like SOUTHFORK or something ? Lol 😂 From Georgia with love ❤️

Half of the plants in my shady bed are from a friend as she divided her hosta, Jacob’s Ladder, Columbine, etc. It’s a joy to share plants with friends!

Laura, thank you for reminding me that I can divide my flowers. I have lots of shade and lots of Hostas that need to be divided. I’ve done it before and it’s really easy. We’re now gettting some much needed rain in north Iowa and snow, which I can do without. Too cold here yet. Lots of work to do in one flower bed yet. I did get a lot done when we had our nice spring weather. Now Mother Nature says, not yet. Lol. Love that you guys decided on the playground for the kids. Have a great day.

I am envious! Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada and I still have 18 inches of snow on my garden beds. A little grass showing through on the south side lawn. Dividing happens in early May if I am lucky. Annuals go in after the 24 th of May. A short but glorious summer in our zone 3 area.

I've been watching you forever and my 5.5 acres is on it's way...thank you so very much. Because I'm 58 and you're still very young, the outdoors can be the enemy of our skin. For 41 years I've been using Olive Oil, YES, from the grocery store (light usually) on my skin. I notice you don't wear gloves often either. I helped make a Dermatologists wife very rich when I explained to him we need more soaps made of Olive Oil. Anyway, my Publix has BOGO Free Olive Oil every month and I cook a lot of Italian food. Olive Oil is good inside and out. Concerned about the smell, add some lavender oil to it. It's the best bathwater wonder, hair conditioner and it will heal ALL the callous' on your hands and feet. You get the idea😉. Happy Planting!

Morning all. I enjoy dividing plants too. Each spring something is divided and multiplied! You mentioned best to do on overcast day. It’s not pretty but on bright days I have put milk crates over transplants for a few days to shade them. I’ve even popped up the beach umbrella to shade the little babies. Works fantastically!

I'm amazed and a little sad to see the drone footage of when you first bought your home and how few neighbors you had compared to now and there is another new house being built.

I’m so surprised you decided to put in a play set for the kids! I guess your land has changed and probably your lives in so many ways. I wonder about the use it will get in the future? I hope it’s a fun addition to their lives. I know they will love the trampoline! We’ve had ours for probably 30 years, we bought it for our kids and now our grandkids enjoy it. Whew! Those sped up sections of the video were crazy fast! Maybe Taylor should run the store and Ken should go back to editing?

Yesterday I divided cats pajamas and their roots were tough and woody. Managed to get 9 new plants from seeds I had planted 3-4 seasons ago. This video was right on time! ❤

Greeting's from Ireland, two years ago I decided to dig a new garden bed in the front garden and make the existing beds wider. I dug up plants and chopped them with a spade. Thankfully all are growing well and I have more plant's for pollinator's.

I imagined a whole playground if you ever gave in to the idea of a play set. Monkey bars, see-saw, Merry-go-round and so on. You could donate them to the shelter or daycare that you plant up every year once your kids grew out of the playground equipment.

Hello Mrs. Laura, thank you so much for showing how you dig and devide plants! I have a couple of huge grasses that definitely need deviding to! Some drone footage of the playground area would be cool! I bet the kids are so excited for the new play area! But… what’s next ??????? A pool? A Hot Tub?

Laura...you certainly know how to get a fire under us. You get us motivated to get things done! Sidebar: With all the gravel drive/road on the property, you'll need to get the kids a two seater go-cart! It will make them both good drivers later in life....not perfect but well prepared with the fundamentals - especially hand eye coordination. Go-carts make some of the best childhood memories! 🌄⛲🏁 Can't wait to see the completed play area!

We are approaching the 2 year anniversary of being in this house…our first house with a yard, and during my gardening journey, the most exciting part has been diving plants in the spring to make more plants. Especially when you have lots of existing beds that need plants and unearthing future beds that are hidden under piles of leaves or overgrown vegetation. You realize that you need as many free plants as you can get.

I just love your videos. I watch every morning before I start work. Some days I have to finish after I get home from work, but your videos are just so enjoyable. I always learn something valuable for gardening. Excited for your upcoming projects and the new play center for the children. Have a lovely day.❤

I’ve heard from a grower that miscanthus likes to be seperated into small plants, because roots in the middle don’t really get enough water (especially without much rain). At that point they tend to grow poorly.

That’s crazy how many plants you can get from one clump of plants!

It's great to be able to pull a plant from an area and plant them in another place an all plants "free". The kids are going to have a wonderful play area.

When dividing and transplanting on a smaller scale ~ we will just toss a basket over the plant for 1 to 3 days and it just gives the plant a bit of protection from the sun til it adjusts. Thanks for this timely reminder that I don’t need to run to the nursery. I have plenty of plants to divide😎💝

Major snowstorm headed our way tonight so not much gardening happening here. Watching you makes me happy as I anticipate the days when I will be outside in my garden.

Dividing perennials that multiply very quickly is one of my favorite things! 👌 Bearded Iris is one of my favorite ls to do that with, given they are so expensive!

Good morning from chilly OKC. Great tips as usual. I always have the fear of killing my plants when I divide and you make it look so easy. Now I have a new task this weekend. Dividing and getting rid part of my 2 huge clump of pampas grass.

Very informative video! I had a couple of Japanese grasses in my front garden, which started out small, then got huge over the years. I was nervous about it, but I dug them up and divided them...into 4 sections apiece. I gave away a couple, as I have limited space, and they did just fine. It looks brutal doing the division...but, plants are much tougher than you think. The geranium division plugs you did...there's an online nursery that would sell each plug at, at least, $17.00 and up. Their plugs are smaller with much less root development. You really get a bang for your buck when you divide...as you know how expensive plants are. Thank you, Laura!

I’m glad you wet the root ball. Regardless of what I plant here in the Texas panhandle (zone 7a), I never plant a dry plant into a dry hole-all has to be watered well before planting. 😁

Thanks for showing how to divide. Suppose to snow tonight here.

It would be super cool to wrap the border of the playground with fruit trees and berry bushes and such. The kids would love that.

Finally 🎉 The mighty miscanthus got its turn of dividing. Laura was planning to get after it for almost 5 years. Question: how well do grasses react to diving, do they look skimpy and floppy after diving or should we just trust the process 😊

I love dividing plants. I love sharing them with others. It makes mine more productive.

I divided my Carl forester grass in March I had 4 now I have 10 that run along between my driveway and pond! Saved me 200$

Hello Garden Answer Family!!! I am New Jersey zone 7B. Of all of the plants and flowers that I have hostas and irises are the ones that I have the most of. I divide them every 3yrs like clockwork. 90% of the irises that I have are reblooming so I can't divide in the Fall. I usually dig them up father's Day weekend so they can rebloom again the earliest Halloween the latest Thanksgiving. The one I have the most of is harvest of memories a beautiful yellow that smells heavenly!!!!!!

It’s exciting to watch you “shopping for perennials” in your own garden! That’s a wonderful reminder especially because you have so much extra land now. What are the vine looking plants near the house and miscanthus?
