  1. I just carved out my new front bed and made sure the tulips got their first picture. Everyone thinks the bed looks like a burial grave, but that’s only because I ran out of mulch. 😂 I don’t know if I would save the Blue Star Junipers. Once they get scraggly, I’ve never been able to make an evergreen look good.

  2. This is a great idea to keep me from pulling up the new plants I’ve planted and not remembering what or where it is 😅
    Blessings 💜💚

  3. So helpful! I just love your relaxed commentary! I’m in California 9b and even though the details are very different, your approach to gardening is very helpful and encouraging.

  4. What a great and timely video of garden planning! Everything looks beautiful. Happy Sunday, Laura!! – Doleen

  5. Great tips about taking photos and videos. I am now paying for cloud space due to the amount of images and videos 😅 I also have a Blue Star juniper in a well drained area with good organic soil in full sun and just like yours mine loses small branches like yours does. This year I added drip irrigation and looks like it helped a little. We'll see how it performs next year.
