Shopping For Trees At the Garden Center! 🌳🌲🌳 // Garden Answer 

Laura and Aaron - I look forward to your videos every day. I don’t know if you realize how much of a joy you bring to others lives. I laughed a lot during this one, between Aaron trying to get a tree at a discount, Laura driving the fork truck while filming, and Laura falling in the hole. I love that you show real life, and I can see myself falling into a hole like that. It is such a relief everyday to watch your videos, I’m currently going through chemo and immunotherapy and just want to forget about that for a while. Your videos let me do just that! 💜 💜 💜

“Do you wanna get one more Locust?” You guys shop for trees like you’re at the grocery store …. I love it! 🤣🤣🤣

Oh, the variety at your parents garden center is impressive! I wish I had an Andrew’s in my area. Everything is looking so good! Y’all have done a great job!

I just lost my mom a few weeks ago and I wanted to tell you that you’re videos have brought so much happiness to me in such a hard time. I had no idea how sick grief could make a person physically. Watching your videos is one of the only things that I look forward to. Sorry for the long post, I just learned after loosing her that it’s so important to tell people how special they are to you while you can. ❤️ thank you, I really appreciate you guys.

We bought our children a tree of their own when we bought our last home. The nursery prices were shockingly high so we asked for something a little less expensive. We were shown a stick at the back for $20.00. It was a Shademaster Honey Locust and had one tiny branch. That tree is absolutely stunning now!

The way Laura and Aaron interact at the garden center just makes me smile! Laura is giddy with excitement going from tree to tree like a squirrel dashing from place to place, not withholding her enthusiasm at all, and then there’s Aaron, so controlled and reserved but turning on a dime as Laura’s exclamations over her next find beckon his attention! Too funny, but so sweet to watch! Laura is just like me once the plant gets home, so eager to get it in the ground! These trees are going to provide you years of enjoyment and the memories you created while planting them are ones you will draw pleasure from for many years! Another awesome, productive day in your garden and yet full of inspiration for those of us who love to watch you!

I was just thinking about the expense of all the trees and shrubs you've planted this year, and then I realized that every time I watch one of your videos, along with the ads, I contribute to your plant fund! Thanks for letting me have a (very) small part in creating this beautiful space.

It's so adorable when I see him have a huge smile picking trees. It's like watching a kid in a candy store. So wonderful and heartwarming. Thank you for teaching me not to be afraid of my garden and change things that suite me. 🙏🏼

I'm telling you, ya'll are so very fortunate to have such a wonderful and fantastic garden center in your area. Kudos to Mom and Dad for that! Love the trees ya'll picked out and the placement on your property. You know, at times you think things aren't filling in fast enough and then you think back to when all this started on the south property and WOW!!! Look at all the accomplishments! So happy for ya'll! 😀

Hi Laura and Aaron, am sitting here having a mocha before bed and saying out aloud “Buy them all , Laura”. Cheers from Queensland , Australia.💃💐

I love love love the times you plant trees! I am with Aaron on his love of trees. You can never have too many. Your place is gorgeous and I enjoying watching it develop. ❤️

Laura it would be so fun for you to do a “new tree” count. Some type of board count with name and date. If one doesn’t make it X it out. It would be a wonderful history of your and Aaron’s time working on this Garden Answer Project. So far how many trees have been newly planted? I’d love to know. Beautifully maintained trees are all I need❤️

I love Andrews! My husband and I made a point to stop by on our way to Idaho for our daughter's college graduation in May. We commented a couple days ago, if not for the pain of fuel prices, we would drive the 6+ hours to shop again for new plants. Everyone was fantastic and friendly, we got to say hi to Laura, and the selection was amazing!!

You’re like a kid in a candy store when you’re at the garden center! I’m the same way-would much rather pick out plants than a new outfit any day..

Aaron should put up the drone so we could see how everything is looking!💕 It all looks amazing from the ground level!

Since I have been watching your videos I have a whole different attitude and repect toward trees. I drive around my city now and just marvel at the different evergreens and deciduous trees planted eerywhere. Big and bold, or small but mighty. I love them all now.. Mother Nature knows what she's doing!!

Aaron, I drop kicked Verizon last August after 30 years! Their service was awful and their people were so not helpful. Happy with T Mobile so far! Love the videos and your enthusiasm for planting "stuff"! Covid taught me to "Be Not Afraid." Dig up more yard, divide plants and move them around! No cost but sweat equity and a happy gardener! Thanks for all you do!

Just wanted to share this quote I stumbled upon the other day..It is so profound.. "The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life.” I would love to have this framed!!

So wonderful to see the transformation and the vision coming to life over time. Following your journey in your little slice of heaven on earth is peaceful and joyful to watch.

I love it when you and your Hubby work together. Great team work👍🏼👍🏼

Gotta love a gal that can wheel a forklift like that!!!

I love that you can drive the fork lift and film at the same time.💪

Again Laura, may I say how impressive you are at the amount of hard work you do on a daily basis. Besides designing the landscape, you also do the actual heavy lifting & digging to get all of the trees, shrubs and plants placed. Hope you’re wearing a back brace when working!! 🌳

I’m imagining Benjamin’s and Samantha’s classes coming to your home for learning tours. Maybe the whole school could come for tours. You have so much to offer for learning. Nice smooth landing btw. 😄

you guys need a TULIP TREE!!

It is so nice how you both work together at every thing from shopping for trees to digging together.

I am ready to jump in my truck and drive hundreds of miles just to shop at your moms nursery and bring a truckload of beautiful plants back to my house! 🤣

I really love the Apollo maple. I’ve never seen a maple anything like that before. Really starting to see the “forest” and park like nature to the property. All todays selections were fun to watch. Starting with getting to see a bit of the garden center and your mom! 👋👋 One question: what ever became of the magnolia that your dad was skeptical of its chances?? Was he right and it didn’t make it? 💚💚💚

I love that garden center set up they’ve done a beautiful job at grouping

I try to watch other gardeners and I get bored! With you I never get board🌷🌹🌺💐🌸🎊

Please consider a channel where you do nothing, but plant trees! I especially love the nursery, tree-buying trips. It's very rewarding watching you both plant trees!!

Oh my laura hope you were ok ?? Can't wait to see the colors on these trees ..amazing......we need more laura and Aaron shopping videos , just warms my heart ❤

Love Love Love Tree planting. I did get distracted at 19:02ish the cloud behind looked like a Westie aka west highland terrier dog. One of the sweetest dogs our family was blessed in having. Laura just love that you share your positivity and passion for making the world beautiful. 🤩🥰🤩🥰

"I've fallen and I can't get up"....without a hand from hubby. lol Thanks, Aaron for leaving that in, gives us all a giggle.

Dear Laura & Aaron, I first began watching just weeks before baby girl, Samantha Grace, made her darling appearance and have been hooked ever since. I’ve binged many previous episodes and continue to learn so much from you. As I type this, it’s 5 am EST. My 94 year-old Mom is down the hall as she returned home yesterday after spending a few days at an inpatient Hospice facility. This is a very new development in her condition for my brothers and me. Two weeks ago, Mom was doing pretty good for 94. She got up every day, got dressed on her own, & was very independent. She was tooling around our home with her walker, watching her shows, (The Price is Right, Judge Judy, & The Wheel of Fortune to name a few) playing Candy Crush on her iPad, monitoring the lives of her kids, grand, & great grandkids via Facebook, & enjoying my live-in granddaughter, (age 6) who is (most of the time 😉) pure entertainment. The abrupt change in Mom’s condition created a whirlwind & it was exhausting navigating that & making decisions on how to move forward, & how to arrange for the help we need to keep her at home. Your channel has been a place of respite and relaxation for me. At night when unable to sleep, or if I’m taking a rare break during the day, I often go to RU-vid and inevitably end up on Garden Answer or Garden Answer Highlights…. and just breathe. I can’t thank you enough for being such a place of steadfast positivity and quite simply, gardening. No one is ever ready to say goodbye to a parent or loved one. My family shares a faith that compels us to love the Lord, to serve Him & others, to cherish life & each other. When it’s time, we don’t fear death. But, that doesn’t make any of this easy as I’m sure so many others know. Keep up the good work, Laura & Aaron. Keep sharing your darling babies and family. p.s. I think your Mom & I could quite easily become best friends. 🙂

I wish i had a fast forward so i could see what these look like in 5 years, 10 years, etc .... lovely.

It's always a good day when Laura's on the forklift and Aaron gets more trees! And Laura, you could try again with the Arizona blue cypress---just put it in a protected place near the house.

Beautiful trees! Laura, hope you didn’t hurt anything when you fell down!

I am so enamored with the Garden Center and what they have available! Nothing like it in our area. Just WOW!

Thanks Aaron from all of us for saying what you said to Verizon out loud! It’s very healthy to release your frustration occasionally ; )

Look at you driving that tractor with one hand while filming with the other. I'm impressed!

I am having such a wonderful time watching all the plants and trees go in the new space. I can't imagine how fun it would be to have the space and money to plant all those beautiful trees.

In early spring I expanded a flower bed and used all the sod to patch areas! It worked great as it then rained a lot for weeks! We also just planted a Shademaster. I always love when I do something and see you do it as well, makes me feel like I know what I am doing. 😉

Oh wow those trees 🌲. It’s always lovely seeing you shopping at your mum’s garden centre but especially joyful to see Aaron tree shopping love that he tried to get a discount😂😂😂😂Love to all xxxx

Laura & Aaron, my eyes fill with tears of joy and pride when you make these monumental improvements to your property, and sometimes even with the small improvements. I’ve been with you since nearly the beginning and it has been such a joy to watch you, your family and your hobby turned business grow. Thank you.

My love for trees would make that shopping experience very expensive ! Thanks for allowing me to live vicariously! 💗

I admire your ability to fill such a big space with trees that are obviously going to be perfect in the spots where they ended up. Gifted vision for the future.

It was great you could “reuse” the sod when you dug for the tree. Fun tree shopping trip.

Andrew's is the most beautiful garden center! Every thing looks fresh and well taken care of, no matter what time of year. I wish you weren't 7 states away!

The plum beech is a beauty you are very lucky having the great variety of trees.

Good on you...can never have too many trees. Love it.

Love your choice of trees. They are going to look so beautiful when they mature! I can’t wait to see them in the Fall.

Have you guys thought of planting a variegated Norway maple tree? My father-in-law has one in his yard and it is so showy the whole year! Amazing tree and I think it would look awesome in your garden! P.s that running noise coming from Laura at 9:10 is hilarious!

Always a vibe ✨ watching these videos early morning 🪴 w/ a cup of coffee ☕️

She drives the forklift like a champ!

What a pretty day this was.

I find myself looking at trees with new eyes (at 64 yrs old) because of you and Aaron. Thank you for that! Just keep planting.

Laura, we’re you trying to “plant” yourself out in the beautiful landscape?! That was a moment not seen before considering the enormous amount of holes you’ve dug over time. The area is really getting its personality/looking green and lush…great job with the grass, Aaron!

How wonderful! I live in Australia and am planting an English style garden from scratch. Unfortunately, we can't get the variety of trees that you can here due to our biosecurity measures (which I totally understand). But it does leave me exceedingly envious of the beautiful trees that you can just nip down to Andrew's and pick up. Love seeing the evolution of the South garden and am absolutely salivating with expectation about the planting around the Hartley! Wishing you all the best from Down Under.

I keep thinking back at what your South Garden was before you acquired that addition to your property. You have done such a marvelous job transforming it into a beautiful young garden space! Aaron has done a magnificent job with the grass and the trees are stunning! I can't wait to see everything when its all settled in! Awesome job and in such a short period of time!

Omg, the sliiiiiide made my day!!

Oh, those will be beautiful! The plum and copper is so pretty!

Look how pretty and green that grass is

I love that your parents garden center is still so full of plants. Our local ones are so empty and you have to buy everything online. What a great video

as a very biased new-englander, i gotta say i think you'll be thrilled by that sugar maple cultivar, because from my experience here at least, while red maples are beautiful and bright, sugar maples on the whole can look like they're lit up by how vibrant they are, and that gorgeous lightly swirling bark they get as they age, iconic

That weeping Beech is straight out of my dreams! 🤩

I love how excited you both get for trees🌲❤️ Your like a couple kids in a candy store

You guys have become part of my morning breakfast. My black thumb is slowly turning a little greener. I am fearlessly landscaping my blank slate of a yard with the help of your videos. I've accepted that not everything will work and that is ok! And if I hate it, it can always be dug up and moved somewhere else! My mantra has become "if at first you don't succeed, plant and plant again."

Laura, you were like a little excited kid today!! 😃

Locust trees are the BEST! They are so graceful and their flowers smell amazing....and I adore walking under one that is flowering and hearing all the bees happily gathering nectar high in the tree canopy

That sky time-lapse footage was BREATHTAKING! I would love to see more of that, please! Also, it is great watching you tree shop. I am land-locked into a small urban yard and it makes me dream of more acreage 😊

Wonderful video. I enjoyed watching the shopping for trees and the planting the beautiful trees. My grandfather had a tree planted in Israel by close friends when he died. It is the meaning of life continues after death by planting a tree. The tree was planted in Israel in1969, perhaps someday I will get to see the tree. Keep doing your videos and making people happy!

Inflation must have bypassed Oregon. Lol.

Smarty Pants Aaron to put that grass in the bare spots. Well done.

There’s just something so romantic about you two digging a hole together! And then he helped you up when you fell. I ❤️ it!

I keep waiting for you to plant around the Hartley...so anxious to see that 🤗

Greetings, Laura and Aaron, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸 We are expecting 96° today. I love when you tree 🌳 shop You have a wonderful appreciation for trees 💓🌳 ❤️ Happy Gardening Everyone 👩‍🌾👍

The best tree planting experience i ever had was putting in 12 Green Giants during the rain. We were lucky enough to have an abnormally wet spring in 2020 when they went in. They were 6-8 feet tall and now are at least 15 feet tall and have already provided a solid screen for us. I've seen many like ours in surrounding towns and don't compare in size or lushness. I highly recommend planting in the rain or at least run the hose during the whole process to get the root ball as wet as possible.

I cant wait to watch them grow!

Zone 8b in Central Texas. Drool over some of those evergreens that we can't grow here!

Having my coffee watching your wonderful show getting ready for another HOT 🥵 day here in TEXAS

Beautiful trees 🌲 🌲🌲🌳 🌳 ♥️❤️

All are such beautiful trees, I wish I lived in your city so I could go buy trees at your folks store. God bless you all.

Your excitement over trees and the beauty of every plant is so awesome! You both are such an inspiration! Look forward everyday for your videos. Such a bright spot in my day! 💚💚

Such a beautiful range of trees, LOVE the blue spruce...he's sooo cute!

Have you thought about putting a sitting area over the storm drain top. Then it could be a resting spot or a new veiw to look at in the garden, serve as a mark and fill a gap?

I enjoy your plantings and the way you and your husband work together! The trees! I only wish I had the area to plant an area like you have! It will be stunning one day, even though it's quite amazing right now! Thank you for all of the inspiration you give others, I for one really appreciate it!

How wonderful to shop at your parents garden center. It's fun to see all the variety of trees. Whoever does the research and ordering does a wonderful job. I am joining the club of needing to see your uplifting videos everyday.... I have always watched daily for my own enjoyment, but now feel the extra need of uplift....Thanks for you and Aaron's efforts to film and educate us!

"Game plan. How ever many will fit in the truck." I like it.

Ahh such beautiful trees! I'm always so excited for the big, structural pieces going in to a garden space 🥰

Your parents have the BEST selection of trees! You have such a great eye for how things will look when they mature! Everything is looking so beautiful!

Very nice garden beautiful. Thanks for sharing dear Friend stay connected keep it up. ✔️💯❤️💕👍

My day is not complete if I don't view a video(s) from you and Aaron! I'm a 6 year gardener in Texas, Zone 9 and have learned so much from ya'll. Thank you all for having such a heart for your plants and viewers.

We need a garden tour of the Andrew's garden center

I think another garden tour is needed!

You are so fortunate to be so close to Iseli Nursery. I love all of the unusual and rare varieties of plants that they grow, and your parents' garden center carries a wonderful selection of them...... In Vermont, we can only get one order from Iseli a year because we have to combine orders with other garden centers in New England, to make a full tractor-trailer load.

Love the tree haul!! And Aaron is up for anything you choose, so supportive (plus he helped you out of the hole!!). Love to watch you guys work together seamlessly.

Good morning Laura,Aaron n GA friends Omgoodness those chicks are adorable....are they silkies???? I am gonna watch this one over again so I can take notes on some of those trees. My brain won't let me focus yet....to early rt now lol

I love the trees that have Fall color! My fav! They will be so beautiful!! Cant wait to see!! 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

I’m so excited that you got a purple fountain beech! We had 3 at our home in Massachusetts and called them our dancing ladies. They get tall and graceful and have a very other-worldly growth habit. The dark purple leaves are gorgeous, too. I just spent 30 minutes trying to find a good photo but wasn’t very successful. But you can google them.
