GOOD MORNING ☀️
Lovely. PS the sign in my garden doesn't say "secret garden". It says: "Trespassers will be composted"….
Keep your egg shell's back , wash dry crush and share between your chicken's , the rest sprinkle around your plant's (1) feed the ground (2) keep slug's away.
Church and gardening my perfect Sunday ❤
I love your sillyness coming out
I can never buy anything that has ‘Cape’ or ‘African’ in its name as they unfortunately become a weed in our climate. I have a couple of things in our jungle that were planted by the previous owners and they are difficult to remove/get rid of. ☹️. Lovely vlog
Tell you've at might be good, sunflower 🌻 interplaneted in with potatoes, my first year now bit i waa late with the sunflower 🌻, make sure ya sunflowers go in wen u 1st put potatoes 🥔 in!

Hugh u need to grow tobacco and get into pipe smoking like richard vobes
I am so excited about my garden this year. It is growing very well, and i already have my first zucchini forming. Four foot talk tomato plants
I planted Kale in between my broad beans this year, and they've had no pests at all. I have to fight off cabbage root fly every year. Talking of pests, I uncurled a cherry tree leaf which had aphids as usual, and had to look up the white maggot within. It was a hover fly larve – I was thrilled to bits. You reminded me when you planted the oxeye daisy – apparently they like that, and I have a fair few self-seeded. I'm so pleased I started watching your videos years ago!
Echinacea doesn’t like being watered I only just found out!
Thank you..Huw for sharing

Cheers from a wild garden in Montana! We are in an uphill battle to grow the food basics in a remote part of the West. Following the ways of the old pioneers.
Seeing the beauty of your lush garden recharges the soul. Cheers! 🪴🙌🏻
Give peas a chance
I hope you use your comfrey and borage and nepeta for health…they are powerful herbs! Love your garden…so inspiring ❤
Like the idea of planting in smaller places. Love to plant and experiment on plants that might do good in smaller spaces not very small. I have a nice garden. It is June 8, 2025. I've already already gotten. I'm gonna say about 25 beautiful big flowers from My squash my zucchini on my cucumber already it's amazing. It's tomato already growing. I know this year has been good last year. My tomatoes were fabulous. I don't know about this year, I'll let you know. I love your garden. I'll be watching you just like I did last year. Good luck.
What a beautiful garden you have…I also like your thinking about the selfsown plants. Thanks for your knowledge -sharing ❤ Btw who is Sam?
What a happy gardening video! Your joy and knowledge about ur garden is inspiring. The roses are stunning ❤️ I am starting a brand new garden this year & have inter planted the beds with many flowers. I picked a bunch of snap peas yesterday. And the joy of eating them as u harvest has no comparison 🥰
My Dad is in mid Wales and has also reported his garden suddenly springing into life after the recent rain.
🍅 The combination of flowers, vegetables, and herbs is not only beautiful but also a testament to your dedication and creativity as a gardener. Thank you for sharing your journey and inspiring others to start their own gardens!
Inspiring!
Haha not long ago I bought a cream cape fuchsia on impulse because it was on clearance, still have no idea where I’m going to put it.
I do very much wish I could attend the classes. Thank you for all you do. I will keep watching and buying your books ❤️
Hi, I love your garden and the way you explain everything, that s why I am subscribed member. I have a question, today I noticed you have bought a fuschia and planted direct to your raised bed. Dont you worry any what type of soil, fertilizer or even chemical has been used before entering your garden?
I thought that looked like a Cape Fuchsia when the camera panned over to that bed. (I'm South African) Enjoyable video as usual. I have monkey problems, so I need to grow everything in a small shade house. Your polyculture is always an inspiration!
you can eat the nigella seeds Huw!!!
I put peas next to my tomatoes. They are flowering over the tomatoes now. Seems to work well in the green house
