Join us on our September tour of the garden, where we show you all the plants of interest in early Autumn.

Our cottage garden has a mixture of different plants including shrubs, perennials and annuals, many of which have been propagated by ourselves.

Now that the weather is beginning to get a little cooler and the light levels are changing, September is a great time of year to enjoy the garden with many plants still looking good.

  1. Thanks very much for yet another crackin' video. Your garden is looking as lovely as always despite the rotten Summer we've just had! Keep them coming! 🙂

  2. Still looking wonderful as ever even though some are going over. The yellow Rudbeckia, I know what you mean about it standing out as I have a small Gaillardia 'Arizona Sun' in a container keeps blooming and blooming stunning red/yellow/black colours. My Scabiosa Black Knight is still flowering and producing new buds. I'm going to save seeds and was going to offer some to you both for free but never know if they've been cross pollinated 🤔 Offer is there if you want, no issue if you don't 👍
    Grasses are looking wonderful too, tried to get my father to like them but he said he will only ever have a lawn 😒 My Stipa Tenn is seeding everywhere 👀 The Miscanthus sinensis 'Kleine Silberspinne' I bought last month or so is turning into feathery plumes and looking gorgeous, I bought another 2 😎 1 was half price, might divide it and put it in the memorial garden at work.
    Thank you for giving us a tour update and hope you both enjoy your week and weekend, happy gardening! 😀👍

  3. Guys, I know it’s the wrong time of year to ask but did you do a Chelsea Chop on any of your perennials earlier this year? I have done in previous years but this year I just didn’t get round to it and things like my echinaceas, sedums, rudbeckias and asters have got a bit untidy and needed staking.

  4. Great tour. I'm really liking the plants with the dark stems and foliage. I must add some of those plants to my own garden. Thanks for the tip about keeping Rudbeckias watered. I'd heard about this for Rhododendrons and Azaleas but didn't know about the Rudbeckias. Ben's tree is looking good and it's really grown. I remember you getting it. I've had a really busy week in my garden as the weather has been so nice. Hope you both have a lovely weekend and are able to do some gardening. The forecast isn't good but let's hope it's wrong. Take care. xxx

  5. Hello, another cracking video! I love your garden. You have those stipa seedlings in your borders. Do you leave them and transplant them from their positions now to new areas in the spring, or can you do it now?

  6. Greetings from Kentucky guys, your garden is looking so beautiful and healthy. I love to leave the finished seedpods of Echinacea to attract birds to my yard. The American Goldfinch birds love the seeds of my Echinacea. Take care and happy Autumn!
