I didn’t get a chance to get out to film in the garden this week, but I still had so much to chat about! Catherine and I went to London for a press day and we got to see some new products and learn about mulching in a drought from Huw Richards.
I’m sharing some of the mulching tips from Huw, along with a couple of interesting products that I thought you’d like and as a beginner gardener, it’s so interesting seeing what’s new and what can make our lives a bit easier!
And finally, I’m sharing the seeds I bought and show some summer bulbs too and gals, that’s it, I’m not buying any more seeds! (I may buy more summer bulbs if we take a road trip to a garden centre!)

What an awesome seed haul! I need to get shopping. Love all the tips for water conservation. I live in a place where lawns have to be watered to survive the summer and I hate watering grass. It's expensive and produces nothing. I'm tempted to woodchip the entire front garden (i.e. yard) and only water the shrubs and trees I plant. I would totally use those cool little wool containers for seedlings.
See you next week for the next seed haul 😂😂😂
You are a full fledged gardener now 😁. Those Dahlias and bare roots you can put into pots now in a bright warm window and start them sprouting now. You chose some real beauties ☺️💐
Happy sowing, Roxanne🇨🇦
Really beneficial info from your trip to England. In case you’re not aware, you can take the dried up flowers from your marigold plants, let them dry and safe e them in a jar to replant. Break the seed pods apart and plant. Will save even buying seeds. I ‘get done the before and works great. So enjoy your video! Happy planting!
You are so funny. No gardener can go in and only buy one pack of seeds or one package of bulbs. Better invite your Mom, put on the kettle and bake a cake, going to need help with all those seeds and bulbs. Can't wait to see what Catherine "didn't buy". Get your tools and gloves ready. Have a great week.
Love your vids so much! I can definitely relate to the excitement of purchasing gardening bits! 😁
What lipstick are you wearing? It’s lovely!
Thank you for all the garden tips you learned. Your garden looked beautiful last season. Take care and garden on.😊☘

Your garden is going to be lovely! You can never have to many seeds!🌹🌻🌷
Dahlias are on my wish list this year too…’Cafe au alit’ is the one I am looking for…it’s got a massive creamy head and is just stunning!
So glad Catherine pointed me in your direction Karen. Looking forward to your garden journey this year.
You definitely have a seed addiction lol.xx
I took a screen shot of that garden on a roll from Catherine’s video! It was so interesting and such a smart idea!!
Wow you love seeds and bulbs like me! I Bet we both could start a nursery 😆 have a wonderful weekend Thank you 😊
Those little plant socks are too cute.Loving your crack on the gardening front.❤
