Aaron, this is for you. I really appreciate your videography. When Laura speaks about a plant or is looking a particular direction, you follow her gaze with the camera. It's like we're actually there with her. Seeing what she's seeing. You could teach some other KZreadrs a thing or two.

I agree! And he never moves too slow, or too fast. I know the quick movements make some people sick, so some people will pan REAL slow and by the time they get there the person talking has already moved on 😅 it has me trying to look around the corner of the screen! But not here. It always flows so well.

I feel like Douglas supervised this episode. I love how he made sure you all did it right. And I fully belly laughed at the carrots.

Aaron was sassy the day this was filmed. He absolutely made me laugh so hard that I had to rewind the video to catch what I missed! The Tiger Eyes Sumac caught my eye from the house. Stunning!❤

The cold front has made Russell spunky!!! Thoroughly love when your cats take the full tour with you.🐈🧡 🐈‍⬛🩶

I love Russell and Cheddar but, oh, my! Douglas is a Love, too. Throughout the entire video I just wanted you to reach down and scoop him up. He was dying for some attention. No wonder he adopted you guys. Who wouldn’t want to hang out in such a gorgeous garden with a loving family.

I agree with Aaron that there are too many awkward boxwoods near the fireplace and some have to come out to make a nicer hedge line. You would probably don’t need that second pathway to the fireplace. Seems like a lot of pathways in that area but maybe it makes more sense to have one from the new kitchen/Hartley path to the fireplace. You will have to see how you use the space. Absolutely love the evolution!

I agree with Aaron on removing the old boxwoods at the fireplace. Maybe install hydrangeas like towards the house for a softer look. Amazing tour.

I love how Douglas always shows up for tours like "come and I'll show you round and you'll see why I decided to live here."

Good morning from the UK 🇬🇧 I thought I was going crazy with the time 🕰️ then I remembered our clocks went back an hour yesterday. So I’m sitting down and watching KZread just after 11:00am, whereas I would normally be getting ready to watch you at 12 noon….nice, early morning bonus. Something I never thought of (had noticed in prior videos) is how the lily pond leaves have changed colour, now that the weather has started to cool and change. Love how the bushes along the fence line look like they are dancing in the wind. I’m loving this video and I had better start to watch it properly 😊 Edit: Aaron’s sass is killing me 😂 being attacked by the bushes on the path/tying back your hair and a few other things. I’M LOVING THE TREES AND YES IM SHOUTING BECAUSE I’M SO HAPPY TO SEE THEM! Thank you 😊 I have been pausing to look and appreciate what else is in the background.

Douglas is so sweet. He tried so hard to get your attention by rubbing against your legs.

Why did I know Aaron was going to say something about that pathway. I laughed out loud. I love how he had the camera hitting the branches. I love it. You made my day!

I love that you tell us you need to adjust where certain plants are located. This has happened to me. I've wondered if I just didn't think through the plants needs. Guess it happens to everyone.

Poor Doughlas swiping on Laura and the jump gets the attention 😢

Spectacular late fall garden! What amazing beauty! You've planned the placement of plants so harmoniously! Russell & Douglas were absolute delights throughout this video. What charmers!

First, I'm so happy for you and your family. What an amazing blessing of a home you're creating. I'd never want to leave if that was my property; who needs a vacation when you're living in one? Second, in my humble opinion, don't hide the barn. I think barns are so beautiful and bring such a lovely presence. I say add a few evergreens, but don't completely block the barn. Of course, you always make amazing design choices, and it's your home, so you do you! 😂

I had the exact same thought as Laura was standing there talking about it! Do "add a few evergreens, but don't completely block the barn." I think that would be wonderful. Like she said, the barn is great and the windows help the side of the barn have interest. So it would be a shame to completely block that...but that is only my very humble opinion.

Good morning, growers ! Hope everyone has a wonderful week.

What a treat! A full garden tour...the last one of the season. It's amazing how much is still blooming and beautiful. With the fall foliage in the background, against the dramatic dark skies...stunning! The sumac looks like it's on fire...what brillance. Your hard work has paid of in an abundance of beauty! Thank you. 😊

What a remarkable fall tour!!! Such a variety of plants and fall colors. As always your plant name recall is amazing. And your enthusiasm is sooo catching. Aaron’s camera skill is so professional and “unintrusive”…. adds so much to the viewing pleasure. You are such a natural spokesperson. Editing is so polished….Ken’s touch?.

Douglas’ aggressive affection cracks me up.

Douglas at 40:07 is the most precious thing. He’s so at home now 🐈‍⬛ ❤

🌻Good morning Laura and Aaron and all friends around the world. Your garden paradise looks better and better no matter the season. And future planning over the winter months, well, I can’t wait to see what transpires🍂. I hope everyone has a safe and happy new week, and thank you again Laura and Aaron. 🎃🍁🍂🧡☕️

Your garden is looking like a botanical garden! So inspiring And cat entertainment too

Incredible memory, for all of your thousands of plants, Laura! Fantastic job. You are creating a masterpiece for future generations to admire.

Should I say thanks to Douglas for this video. He follows Laura every time. Aaron, I knew you were going to make your sway with that shrub growing into the pathway. Thanks guys. You all are the best.

Love how Douglas was just wanting to be petted and loved on ~~ Candi in Atlanta

I still remember the South Garden looking like the surface of Mars. It looked so hopeless. Now it turned into an oasis. A PARADISE! It's my favorite spot aside from the pond area. ❤️❤️❤️ Douglas is so adorable. 🐈‍⬛

I remember a lot of conversations in the past about one day, moving, possibly moving, you never know where will end up, that property of yours is absolutely beautiful in every way and checks every box. Please never leave. I love these videos and I love watching the creativity from both you and Aaron.

Good morning, Douglas looks like he put on his winter weight! So cute!

I love how the kitties stole the show. Those planters by the front door are phenomenal. It made me sad to think that such robust coleus plants will soon be gone.

I watched the entire tour video! Who else is with me?

Your observation of the holes in the lamb's ear at 10:40 may not be slug damage. Those fuzzy leaves often attract bees that use the disks they cut from them to line their nests or plug the holes of their burrows. Carder bees and leaf cutter bees will often make stachys rather raggedy. The carder bees cut the wool from tomentose plants, card it, and make their nests in holes while leaf cutter bees make little sleeping bags or plugs out of the disks they cut from leaves.

How lucky for your children to have this beautiful property to grow up on!

You have come so far with the empty field. Wow. Looks awesome.

Such a great fall tour. But I must say Douglas and Russell really made it special--they are so funny and certainly love you guys.

In response to all the remarks about "please pets the cats...." YOU DO ! I hear you frequently tell them when you're done you'll give them some love. They are a fun addition. 😉 Your gardens have so evolved over time. Beautiful. Your own little Macanaws (?) 20 years from now, IF you still live there, how grateful you will be with all your hard work now. Fun times! 💜💛💚💙🐸🐸🐸😎

Love this tour. Definitely want to get the chitapala next year. Do you ever Pet Douglas? He wants attention so bad

I'm guessing that enclosing the chicken coop is on your list also. Douglas is swiping because he wants your attention. 😂

Russel is all about you! He's such a sweetie 😻

Please-please-please pet Douglas!!!! 10:15

Great garden tour and so much beautiful interest. The spaces are coming together so nicely. I think you should take some of those tiger eye sumac suckers and plant them out on the new property. Visually, it would be stunning out there.

I was so happy to see the gardens around the house. You have done so much these last few years away from the house, it’s nice to see the gardens that started it all. ❤

Douglas needs his own channel. So cute!

Fabulous garden tour, love me some Douglas the determined cat.

Russell is probably responding to the cooler weather! Our cats run and jump like Mexican jumping beans when the temps drop!☺😁

Oh the wooded area with more water features will be spectacular! And more tree coverage to make a hidden space! WOW

Love the interaction of the cats in the video. Cats belong in a beautiful garden like yours. Douglas is so grateful to be adopted by you guys. :)

Great tour! I loved watching the cats especially Douglas. He REALLY wants to get your attention, which maybe why he gives you swipes...needs some pets!

I hate to say it but you're going to have to pass their names on some people in your area. I know you have been reluctant to do that but it's a wonderful service to pass on.

What a beautiful garden. I get so much inspiration for my yard from you and Aaron. I love that Douglas just follows you every where! It just shows how much he loves you all and how starved for love and attention he was before he found you all. He doesn’t want to leave your sight so you can’t leave him! Animals are amazing. Very beautiful!

Always a pleasure to “walk through your garden” and see the beauty and learn from you. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me! Blessings to you💖

You guys have worked so hard on so many parts of your gardens. They are definitely flourishing now, and you see the rewards of your works.

Oh my goodness - Douglas is sooo cute and snuggly!! He is just like a dog and follows you everywhere!

It's so funny...I'm a cat and garden person and I watch the cats trying to get into the action when you film. I was watching ( I think Douglas) following you, acting all sweet, but also wanting your attention, fawning all over on the ground, rubbing against the plants and what ever moment he could get from your ever -in-motion legs....and then he swiped at you! I caught that. He tries so hard to get your attention, poor baby. I love how you stopped for a minute , said, " he just swiped at me" and then continued without a missed beat. Those cats are so happy lucky. Love your space and energy....so do the cats obviously! Thank-you.

I love the barn. It is a great structure and nod to the history of the place. Absolutely move the budleia. It seems like it is a bully in that space and the little weeping evergreen is lost. Maybe something with larger leaves in its place. Great idea to do a fall tour to remember what you want to change and make plans for the next season.

Wonderful tour. Made my list for next spring shopping. Douglas has really attached himself to you. So sweet.

Russell and Douglas really enjoyed the garden tour. They were hilarious 😂

Two of my favourite things, beautiful gardens and gorgeous cats. Perfect, makes me so happy...❤

Love the cats following you ❤

Pathways lead us to enjoy more of the garden!

I can't believe how full and beautiful this tour was so late in the season! Still with gorgeous color and I completely enjoyed seeing how playful and sweet the cats were. Douglas is very feisty but he really wants your attention. He followed you every step of the way. The pots at the entrance to the raised garden are splendiferous! The carrots are impressive! So glad you can still cook and eat them. Loved this entire tour! Hope you all have a wonderful day!💕

😂anyone else love the extra cat drama trying to upstage Laura ? ❤️

You should drop their food close to the edge to train them to come to you. Then eventually put you hand with food into the water to get them to eat out of your hand. Eventually they will let you pet them!

Good Morning! 🎃 I just love how everything is evolving! Love that Hartley pathway! A great October tour - really enjoyed walking with you through all the areas! 😃🥰🌲🍁🎃🍂💚🌿

What a treat to watch both you and Aaron, accompanied by your feline entourage, as you gave all of us the annual Autumn tour! The scattered toys here and there reminded us that two little people are enjoying this wonderland you've created for them to grow up in. Including Benjamin's little flower stand was too precious. The weather today, rain break and all, was perfect for the Autumn tour reminding us that winter and snow are around the corner and the next tour will be of a "winter wonderland."

All I can say is Wow,Wow,Wow!!! So many beautiful areas! Just amazing 😍 It was cute when Russell got the zoomies. The cool weather probably brought that on, haha. Love the tour!

wow... you were busy in 2023!! so many beautiful plants, and i love how you point out the changes you want to make... gardens are always evolving.. i have plans to do the same in my little space... and that Douglas.. he is determined to rub his scent on both of you to see if that will deter Russell (ain't gonna work, Russell is #1!)... fun to watch them follow you around everywhere.. i have to admit though, Douglas is mighty handsome with that fluffy fur... Russell will always be Numero Uno tho...i remember you had a cat before Russell; i think his name was Dexter?? .. love seeing everything with its fall color... and i guess your colder weather will end so many of those blooms... sigh.. time to sit by the fire and make plans for next year!!! 🥰❤thanks for the video!! 🥰❤

I’m impressed with your ability to plant color, shape, texture and seasonal characteristics! Congratulations on your breathtaking beautiful gardens.

Have a blessed week and hug your babies! 💕

I have trouble imagining Laura actually sitting on any of the benches, what we see is a constantly moving person in the videos, smile.

We watch your videos almost every morning, with our coffee. The garden tours are such a treat! As you were showing the view from the "forgotten -not forgotten" corner, I couldn't help but imagine the arbor covered in something, maybe white or yellow (honeysuckle?). It would block off the view beyond, but might create more of a backdrop for the beautiful plants on that corner. Love the Distant Drummer rose. My mom passed a few years ago and she was a drummer. Every time you show them, I think of her. I'm going to have to try to find one to plant in our yard. Thanks so much for the daily inspiration!
