Hi garden friends! I’m Laura. My garden is my home “office” I’ve worked hard to create a productive small suburban sized garden for my family, wildlife, and pollinators to enjoy. I garden in Southern New Jersey zone 7b – 8, just about 10 minute drive from Philadelphia. I hope this video inspires you!

Hello Dear 😊 May I ask where you purchased your seed trays with covers and heat mats?
I have purchased some things from Gardeners Supply in the past. I love Lobelia Crystal Palace too! Where do you purchase seeds for them please?
OH those Primroses ( and your lovely cozy home) are BEAUTIFUL!
What a special treat to see your gardens and home today! I love everything about your style and learn so much from you. Your design style is just perfection. Thank you so much for sharing.❤
Hi Laura, your seeds are doing great!!! I plan on going to garden center in Pa and get my soil for my containers & raised bed. I have other things I want to get. Like you I’m want to get outside and work on things. Look forward to seeing more videos 😊
Love the update. I really do like the green color you chose for the new doors and shutters!
Thanks for the tour and your home is beautiful
Everything looks wonderful! How fun is that!!? 🎉 What green planter trays do you use? (i.e. the ones like your oregano, straw flowers are in?) I really like that size. Thanks!!🤗💞🌱👌
Can't wait it's going to be beautiful 😊 squirrels are my nemesis, they even dig up perennials!!
Listening to you gets me so excited for spring
Lovely backyard. I like the boxwood idea. Im petrified of any sn…kes. just stumbled upon your channel. What state are you in?
Everything looks great and I’m so excited to see what changes you’ll be making. Can I ask where your arbor is from? The one next to the greenhouse?
I am like you – just let me be outside! Bulbs are beginning to surface and I can hardly wait to see the flowers.
Congrats on your seedlings!
Laura, your garden always has been THE most charming of them all❣️❣️
I read that nasturtiums don't like root disturbance. Have you had any trouble starting them indoors and potting them up? Yours look beautiful in this video.
Your shed has really come a long way. It’s just so charming! I’m feeling the same about the squirrels right now 🐿️!! They’re driving me nuts! I moved my potted daffodils out onto the back deck, and they had a ball tearing into one of the pots 😭. I’m spraying the pots with Repels All before I go to work tomorrow 🤞🏼!! Thanks for the update. Looking forward to watching your garden wake up.
Could you do a video on starting seeds what you need how to do it? Do you cover them right away mist them how often or what I do not know anything about that. You were talking about morning glory’s I have some wild ones near a replace and plant some nut they always take so long to come up for me as do nasturtiums even if I soak the seeds! Or have you did a video in the past? I realize you’re getting busier so maybe you could demonstrate over the late fall and winter . I’m hoping someone else needs this too thank you
😊
I’m glad you are keeping the fence white.
Oh my goodness, it’s time! I love when we start getting more videos of your garden, especially at the beginning of the season! So glad we are getting a custom Marc fence and that the birdhouse is returning!
You’re right about the Heavenly Blue Morning Glory, I thought they weren’t gonna bloom for me then at the end of October, bam! They were beautiful! My neighbor even walked across the street to tell me how gorgeous they were. Love the inside of your home, I knew it would be beautiful, seeing how you decorated your greenhouse. We have the same decor style, I love primitives. I’m so looking forward to the gardening season this year! I’m ready to dig in the dirt again! Looking forward to seeing your garden, it’s beautiful as always. I too like the pointed picket fence 😍
I'm so excited to see your gardening adventures this season. Thank you for sharing!
Love your updates 💚 can't wait to see
Beautiful as always thank you for sharing. Enjoy your day.🥰🥰🥰
Boxwoods, I have none in my garden. I’m a yew shrub gardener. Can’t risk all the various boxwood diseases. Are you nervous about the various diseases?
Hello, do you need an irrigation system to control watering when gardening? I would like to sponsor you with our ImoLaza smart irrigation controller. If you are interested, please let me know, and I will provide more details.
