    Edit: people have asked why Rosy is calling this a Mediterranean garden. This section was planted with consultation of the UK branch of the Mediterranean Garden Society: it is a gravel garden with Mediterranean style planting (ie drought tolerant) - www.rhs.org.uk/plants/for-places/gravel-gardens
    Its also a bit early in the season to get a full idea of how its meant to look but we thought Spring was interesting to show.
    As Rosy mentioned this garden, Bere Mill, is open for visitors on a few select days as part of the National Garden Scheme.
    We encourage all UK viewers to have a look at the National Garden Scheme, it opens up some beautiful private gardens for gardening enthusiasts to have a look around while raising money for charitable causes :)

    Enjoyed the Mediterranean garden. Rarely see one in early spring - they are usually featured in warmer weather. Your point about the bulbs is a great explanation- thanks for it. I grow clumps in a lot of places and never notice any competition. Now I know why.

    I haven’t watch all the video , but looking at you sitting in the bridge, it came to my mind how other world are different even where I’m from , Mexico , people here in USA will be complaining why that bridge don’t have a rails , that’s dangerous, you could fall, kids could fall . I don’t know if is the same in Uk., but in Mexico they would say , who told you to go sit in the bridge if you don’t know how to swim 😂.

    Absolutely beautiful! Hope to be able to see this garden in different seasons later on! It will be so nice if you can take us back to witness the transitions, Rosy? Also seeing the plants that you advocate for in your other videos but in their environment, in the landscape makes it easier to understand how to use them and how they are actually looking/ it is so different when you see the plants in the pots and when you see them planted! Really enjoyed this!

    Great video Rosy. Very informative. Totally agree with your Rose comment. A lot of the Roses in our area, Zone 8 NC have been getting Rose Rosacea disease, not to mention the challenges of growing them in a hot and humid environment. I prefer having Hydrangeas instead.

    Hello Rosie,
    I fail to understand why this is called a Mediterranean garden. I am back from a short trip to the south of France and:
    - the plants, shrubs and trees are very different
    - also I have visited quite a number of gardens / parks in southern France, Spain and Italy, nowhere have I seen this kind of garden with big gravel. Generally you find tiled, sandy or fine gravel pathways and borders, also lots and lots of container planting.
    The location is beautiful and so are the herbaceous borders.
    As always thank you for the generous advice.

    • @RosyHardyGardening
      @RosyHardyGardening  3 месяца назад +4

      I suspect it would be more proper to call this a gravel garden with Mediterranean planting choices.. These are very popular in England due to their low maintenance requirements

      @@rosyhardy18Thank you for your explanation because I was starting to think the English version of the Mediterranean garden was in the same vein as the French version of pop music 🤮(that only applies to French pop music) by which I mean it sounds the same but in real life is disappointing.
      Currently in the south you walk along streets smelling of orange blossoms and jasmine !

    Lupin is one of my favourites. I love the foliage and flowers are absolutely magical for me. But I always lose the plant after couple of years. Can you please make a video about Lupin and explain how to take care of Lupin and avoid any disease.

  • @justme9818
    @justme9818 2 месяца назад

    I liked how clearly and unobtrusively the plants were named and labelled, I wish all gardening channels used your method! If you have the manpower/equipment, it would be really nice if you could film around Rose as she's talking - in a slow arc, with her in the centre, so the viewer can appreciate the planting from different angles. The picture the background planting creates shows up clearly. But when you get to the plants in front, it's more difficult to imagine the impression they would make in one's own garden.

    • @RosyHardyGardening
      @RosyHardyGardening  2 месяца назад

      Yes at some point we will look to hire a talented videographer for some of the more dynamic gardens - its all a bit DIY atm but we do our best. Its a goal dependent on how this channel keeps growing however

  • @lynmccullough4860
    @lynmccullough4860 3 месяца назад +1

    I can never work out how to feed plants in a gravel garden such as this one? It is easy if you select plants that need no additional feeding but what about those hungry peonies? Do you just scrape the gravel aside? Such a wonderful array of plants and agree with other comments that it would be lovely to see it in other seasons.

    • @dip_emb_mexuk
      @dip_emb_mexuk 3 месяца назад

      As Rosy replied on another comment saying that there aren’t any fabrics underneath to suppress weeds, I’d say liquid fertiliser would work just fine if you aim directly down to the plants’ roots 😊

    I live in South Australia which has a Mediterranean climate. There is no way I could plant my plants in those stones. In such a hot dry climate the plants would burn badly or probably die. I’ve only seen cacti planted that way but it’s not that common. My plants are mulched but closer together to help with shade.

    • @RosyHardyGardening
      @RosyHardyGardening  2 месяца назад +1

      yes this style of planting seems to mainly be achievable in climates and growing conditions akin the UK. Its quite popular here as its more low maintenance

  • @johnsmith-ls4rc
    @johnsmith-ls4rc 2 месяца назад +1

    An exquisite setting, but the design is definitely not my cup of tea. The sections near the carriers (streams) would look better as wild flower meadow and orchard with long mown grass; and the Mediterranean garden would sit better within a walled section next to the house IMHO.

    • @rosyhardy18
      @rosyhardy18 2 месяца назад +2

      All gardens are personal to the owner. There are plenty of areas before you get to the gravel garden which are exactly as you describe. We were in a small section next to the house. But the long drive next to the main river is long grass and native plants. There are about 6 carriers all with different planting.

      @@rosyhardy18 Fair enough, I don't know the full picture. I have realised with time, I enjoy my own orchard space with hedging and native plants, as much as I enjoy the cultivated area with flower beds and lawn. Just my own experience.
