  1. Dislike Aeoniums so leggy
    I cut mine when they get like that. Plant them up in one pot together. They love the winter cold here in Northern California Humboldt county 🌿💚😊 dislike the summer heat

  2. Oh the elusive blue poppy ! I tried to grow it in Cornwall in the UK, and got one flower before it died. No chance in the heat of Australia, but now based in New Zealand, I treated myself to one a few years ago. Lovely blooms, and so excited. After we had major floods, the builders were due, so I decided to lift it, just to be safe, only to find it had shrivelled and died. I SHOULD give up, but like Monty, I find the flowers so beguiling that I might just try again, in a damper part of the garden. Ammi Majus is lovely, but do try the flowering carrot, sometimes labelled a a chocolate or lilac Queen Anne's Lace. This has the most delicate umbel blooms, in shades of everything from cream through to dark crimson, which pick well, and can even be pressed ! In Oz it was a ground cover, here in NZ it grew to about 60cm tall.

  3. I like Francis Tophills history of where plants organiated from, it’s often a surprise!
    Thank you Gardeners World, really rich and diverse variety of places.

  4. I no longer have a television so I really missed Gardeners World, my favourite programme. But I had seen the odd episode on YouTube so I thought I’d have to be content with that. SO delighted to find that your channel posts the latest episodes each week ~ I’ve watched every one. I find it so relaxing as well as educational.
    I didn’t have a garden of my own for over four years but now I’ve moved house, due to serious health problems, I’m thrilled to have a little garden of my own, which I have started from scratch. Sadly I have to pay someone else to do most of the work for me under my direction, as I am now unable, but it’s coming along, slowly due to the wet and cold, and because I could only afford baby and bare root plants, but now it’s warming up, I can see progress!
    However, much to my horror, I’ve discovered my new garden is RIDDLED with bindweed and it’s coming up everywhere. Please would someone tell me the best way to get rid of it?

  5. Gardeners' World: proving there is no end to growing gardens. This episode just hit all the right notes! Happy notes!

  6. Thank you again for posting. I loved the frugal element of cutting off celery, cabbage bottoms and replanting them, yes they will grow back in pots or the earth. I spend more to buy organic and that for me is a huge win in saving money…with the perpetual growth.

  7. I am going to plant out my rooted shop brought spring onions 🙂 Going to sow some peas, and I thought it was too late! 🙂 Well I loved this episode. Thank you so much for sharing

  8. Will you also upload the Chelsea broadcast? I teach ESL classes to Dutch florist students and I'd love to use it for my lessons! 🙂

  9. I adore Sasha's garden and approach, great planting taste as well! She was wasted in City London) Glad she ended up in a much nicer place!
