Join us for a January winter garden tour as we walk through our garden during its quieter season. With several projects currently underway, the garden isn’t at its polished best — but this is where the real story begins.
In this video, I share our plans for the year ahead, upcoming garden projects, and how our garden has naturally evolved over time. From long-term design ideas to planting intentions and future layouts, this is an honest look at garden development, seasonal change, and the creative process behind shaping a space.
Whether you love garden tours, landscape design, or seeing how a garden grows and transforms year by year, I hope this inspires you to embrace your own garden — even in winter.
🌿 Thank you for joining us on our garden journey.

Thanks so much for watching our January garden tour 🌿
This time of year always feels full of possibility — even when the garden looks a little untidy with projects underway. I’d love to know: what are your garden plans for this year?
If you enjoyed seeing how our garden continues to evolve, please consider liking the video and subscribing — it really helps support our channel and future garden projects. Thank you for being part of our journey 🤍
A garden is never finished but always evolving. I need to move some plants that are being shaded out now as their neighbors outgrow them. You have given me some ideas on how to plan where they will go.
It’s really nice to be allowed to see the progression and the intent over time. My garden is less formal but I still learn so much from watching you guys! Also I’m very envious of your partnership how wonderful to be able to share the joy (and the labor) as my husband has never had an interest in our garden.
I wish my garden was as tidy as yours and as full of greenery. Lovely to have the structure of hedges in the winter. Reminds me to buy some more Ilex Crenata to edge long front border, as quite a few died in heatwave last summer, despite me watering at least once a week. Wondering whether to dig a channel between hedge and lawn and fill with gravel so that there is a gap between lawn and hedge for ease of mowing. Perhaps metal edging like you have inserted might be a better and easier option?
Plans are to rid mine of any hint of bramble 😬😡, repoint parts of Georgian era wall on one side with lime mortar myself, remove dead trees from hedge on the other side and fill gaps with some viburnam tinus shrubs that grew by themselves, plant a hedge, or mixed shrubs at bottom to hide a fence. Plant lots more bulbs (should arrive this week) and try to grow perennials via all the seed packets I've gathered over the last five years or so and never had the time to sow. Hope they're still viable. Should be a quieter year this year hopefully and so should be able to crack on and do some interior decorating too. This constant rain isn't making me feel very workish though!
Have a great week to come Jenny.
Your videos are really impressive! However, I noticed that SEO-optimized tags haven’t been used in them. That’s why your videos aren’t getting enough views or ranking properly. If you’d like, I can handle the SEO optimization for your videos — this will help improve their ranking and significantly increase your views.
It's all looking beautiful. Your plans for the future sound amazing.
Gosh Jenny, so many new ideas and plans. So looking forward to seeing the progress this year. 💐
I feel the same in my garden, like nothing was accomplished. But if you look back over the past year it’s always a surprise
