Harvesting Cabbage & Strawberries, Planting Flower Seedlings & Pulling Ranunculus! Ophiuchus: I had terrible luck with both my anemone corms and my ranunculus. Out of probably 20 ranunculus I got ONE plant that flowered. Probably my fault, they didn't like the pot I put them in most likely. The anemones though, I put some in flower pots and some in the ground. Neither came up so eventually I went on a digging mission and there wasn't anything in the pots except for one half rotten corm They all apparently just rotted away for some reason. I assume it was just to wet at that time of the spring? I have no idea really but I was super disappointed particularly about the anemones. Iv looked for plants or corms for 3 years and FINALLY found some this spring at target. I was so excited, and then so disappointed. Maybe someday Ill get my little patch of anemones like yours.

Hi Laura, if you like carrot blooms you should try garden breeds of the wild carrot like Daucus carota 'Dara'. They bloom in the most beautiful shades of pink and they selfseed (at least in my climate. So I have been able to enjoy them for the last two years. They put on a great show and are one of my favorite sights in my little garden. The pollinators love them as well. Thank you for all your hard work! I sure love watching each and every single video you make! All the best wishes from northern Germany

Help? I am still tryjng to replicate your gardening magic here in the desert. Did you start the cabbages and squashes indoors? I planted my squash, cucumbers, and cabbages outdoors early June and they have barely grown more than a few leaves. I fed them with plant-tone at planting, and they are moist from drip line. I live in zone 6b, 1, 600ft altitude, Central Oregon desert (moonsoil that we amend heavily in raised beds. What is the secret to getting them to grow so big! Shade? Nitrogen?

Laura can grow so much on her huge property, and I love that she dedicates a bit of space for edibles that can be donated. Of course the trees, shrubs and flowers are beautiful, but it's also nice that she plants, harvests and donates some food too. It also just tickles me a bit how much she really does not need to make her gardening about food production and storage unlike others who squeeze as much productivity out of their small gardens. I kinda feel a bit bad about that lol

I hadn't been hearing the bracelet- clanking metallic like sound you had brought up in your recent highlights video, but I hear it a lot in this one, especially around 22: 00. Curious if you have solved the mystery! Thank you for all of your videos and insight! I've been following since you moved into this house and so appreciate all of your enthusiasm and knowledge for gardening. I have learned SO very much along the way and always feel so inspired.

You may have already done this, but I would love to see how all your blooming flowers in the cut garden are doing. I saw a lot of color behind you in this video and would love to see everything. Its really interesting to me to see where your plants are compared to our area. For example, my sweet peas are completely done & my seed pods have been harvested. I plant them by seed in October.

Loved your carrot flower patch! I always have carrots, pink, orange, white, scattered through my flower garden to get the great flat flowers and pollinators. Different coloured carrots have slightly different coloured flowers. And once you have them. you have them, in a good and manageable way. Impressive cabbage crop, such tight and full heads. Thanks for sharing.

It's always wonderful to see people giving back to their community. Thank you for such a great video. The fearless way you go about things and how forgiving and patient you are is so inspiring. If something doesn't grow, oh well, you just rip it out, plant something else and move on. The digging up of the ranunculus was particularly informative, thank you!

And on the lighter side: at the start when you showed the line of cabbages in the ground with the huge leaves around a ball, the very first thing that came to my mind was: Hey, it's true, babies do come from under the cabbage patch! Look at it again - an hour later and I am still chuckling with a smile. And regarding the local food donations, well done.

I so enjoy watching your videos every morning! Your strawberries are so gorgeous. I bought a couple hanging baskets this year (the chipmunks eat them on the ground) and the Asian beetles have destroyed them. Do you have any recommendations on a safe spray because I am not home all day to knock the beetles into soapy water. Thanks.
