Episode 1
Carol is now harvesting the first of her carrots and has been dining off an abundance of chard for weeks! A visit to some native foxgloves thriving in a nearby hedgerow reveals the secrets to success with growing these wonderful plants, and kicks off a look at the whole family of plants to which they belong. This includes snapdragons, verbascums and penstemons — some of our most useful garden plants, all well loved by gardeners and insects alike.
‘Hedges and edges' get the limelight this week, too. Carol looks at their importance to the style and layout of a garden, advises on how to grow your own wildlife-friendly hedge and shows us the best way to take stem cuttings from honeysuckle. And a new raised bed offers the opportunity to demonstrate the best planting design for very tall plants, even if you have only a very tiny outside space.
