I don’t have a green house, should I put them on a sunny windowsill, none sunny windowsill, outside or anywhere in the house? Thank you.

Love this. watching from a hot and humid Durban,SA. I started with a handful of agapanthus about 10 years ago, my garden now has about 250. That's not counting the ones given to family and friends. Fortunately, our winters are not severe so these plants flourish all year round.

Cheers Martin great advice as usual 😊

Spot On ! Thank you for a great video.🎉

Thank you for this, about to order my first 6 plug plants from Dibleys and can’t wait for the March delivery. I always remember a huge Strep on my grandmas window and loved it as a child. Is it true they prefer shallow pots? Hers were certainly all on short planters.

Coincidentally just been watching an article about three cornered leek which is grass like (but invasive) and delicious in 'leek' and potato soup etc.

Poor Martin. I thought you'd been playing American Football. When you coming over to Bluesky?

Great video thanks the recent storms in Cornwall have made my hedges lean oleria so I’m going to dig them out and reposition them 👍🫶

Good, informative video! Have a wonderful day! 🌸

What time of year is best to prune a red currant bush, in a northern maritime climate with winter temperatures rarely below +15F or even +20F, last frost date late March or early April.?

We’ve been to the Hampton court and Chelsea flower shows for years and been members…. The annoying thing is you pay over the top to attend these shows, the sign posts are not enough for directions. And if we buy a ticket we should get a show map included, not buy an over priced catalogue of advertisements to get one! Sorry we feel we’re being ripped off!

I see you have ivy growing up your tree - does this damage the tree? I have a variegated type growing through from a neighbour and climbing up my sambucus. I was wondering if I should cut it off at the bottom so it doesn’t completely engulf it?

Still waiting for the garden tour 😞

Thanks for that. I have avoided the garden for too long due to the weather!!! But I need to get going. May I ask if you have an opinion about lily of the valley? I bought some bulbs and then read that they are invasive. Should I avoid them?

I was just wondering about this the other day so thanks!

my hellebores have already flowered, I live in Tuscany, Lucca

Thank you. Excellent explanation

how old is that black currant? It looks amazing!!!

I love your podcast, reminds me of my homeland! We visited (from Breezy Point NY) in November, moseying up the country visiting family and friends. Landed lhr and flew back from Aberdeen. Time was so tight we didn't get to see any gardens you talk of.😢 Back at the beach we again enjoy the info, (will prune our wisteria after this polar blast leaves) the fun and laughter and accents!!! Thank you❤

Good morning and thank you for sharing😊

So thats what the sun looks like! Thanks for taking us on tour. Enjoyed the gardens 😊

The was quite an education, it made me realise that I really had no grasp of how the job should be done. I’m very grateful, thank you👍

If you want to see how this bulb grew, check out this episode of the podcast where we show the bulb several weeks later: ruclips.net/video/rMiJSSsEPgo/видео.html -Sean

Sowing densely doesn't cause fungal disease at all. To prevent disease, use a soil-less mix. No need for any compost or fertilizer. The seeds have the energy within them to get them to the first 3 leave stage, then transplant them out. I would have sowed that whole seed packet into that little tray

Thank you for sharing this

Thanks. I just pruned my redcurrant and got about 50 good cuttings so I’ll follow this advice to grow

thank you

A great garden Iwill be visiting 🎉🎉🎉

Do not prune the tips of a "basitone" plant. Their growing hormones are in the base, not in the tips. Cut the entire branchs completly at the base. Remoove 20-30% of the branchs every year so that you'll never have bottoms older than 3-5years, up to 50% if it's old and never been pruned so that in 2 years everything will be renewed, then you can go with 20%/year.

Beautiful! 🌸

Lovely video. I remember watching Martin's segments on EMT when I was a kid. I also remember reading him in my Grandad's GN back when it was a newspaper. I actually got my picture in one edition when I was about 5 and they came to the Springfield Flower Show near Spalding. Sadly that show no longer exists but I can still recall the fragrance of the bulbs in the marquees!

Wonderful content from a wonderful group of people. Honestly with everything going on in the world, it’s stuff like this that gives us hope!

Love this 😊thanks for sharing

I LOVE streps! And "Falling stars" is a favorite! It's a very profuse bloomer! I found one on ebay as I am in the U.S., I wish Dibley's would sell to the U.S., they're varieties are hard to find here. It's a shame.

Just love this channel. Hi we’ve got 2 limelight’s can they be pruned lower say to 6” from the ground. Ours are about 15 years old and getting woody… Keep the vids going …just love em! 🤓

HAPPY NEW YEAR Martin Jill & Sean lv Irene 😘

Thank you so much for the podcasts.. like you said there’s always something to do. I can’t wait to get on my fence before the clematis get o it… I’ll stain it, also the shed, oil my tools clean pots and plant labels … there’s so much to do! Can’t wait to retire. Happy new you to you all! B🤓

You don't slice away the enlarged basal plate ?

Can I join the queue to work in the nursery!

❤ love you all

Happy holidays!😊

Lovely gifts Martin but I'll have the greenhouse please. Happy Christmas😂❤

results?

Good morning all. I’ve got some small agapanthus 1 year old which are now now trying to spirit the plastic pots. You can see the roots out the bottom and the small pots 3” are being deformed all around the sides. The question is when should I repot them now or in the spring. Thanks for all the great info B🤓

Thank you for this video info.. Ive been out and bought a root ball xmas tree after following your advice..so pleased i found you on you tube ... love all this advice 🌼 🌸

You won't get an y peat compost next year

No disrespect to the farmer, but this peat free stuff is rubbish for young plants and seed. I'm staying with peat for seed and young plants. The fibres are so bad not even plants or roots can get through.

Brilliant

Great, hopefully my next Poinsettia will last longer , after watching this video 👌🏻
