  • Join us again for another entry in our Lost Tower Diaries as we take you for a walk around our bottom field, visit our ancient oak and try to save a fallen horse chestnut tree by taking cuttings.
    Living in Scotland in a 300-year-old country house. This is a record of our life renovating an historic house in Scotland and using our land as a homestead to enable us to live as sustainably as we can - almost off grid!

    If this does not work, you might try air layering. All you need to do is scrape the new bark off onr side of a new growth, dust with rooting compound then wrap with moist sphagnum moss. Then wrap with plastic secure with tape, or string.

  • @anitaassad4499

    Hi from Johannesburg south Africa. Dip the cuttings in honey. That will increase growth but also prevent rotting as you plant the fresh growth

    I just want to tell you, once again, how much I love ❤ your new channel and your respect for the land and the creatures that live there! Thank you 😊!

    when i was kid i stood in dog poop. and i used a stick to scrape it off, and because it stunk i stuck it in the ground, 15 years later its a big tree, i dont know what tree it is but i always think about my dog poop tree when i see these types of videos lol

    Thankyou for showing us your beautiful land. We live in Australia on the edge of a small country town We only have a quarter of an acre but every inch is used My daughter lives with us with now five grandchildren We are in our 70s and will never get to see Scotland but my husbands ancestors originated from there. Mine from Ireland I loved seeing what it’s like where you live. You are so blessed to live there and have each other.

    Every year I set my garden up knowing very well that I am doing nothing more than setting the deer’s annual buffet.

  • @jrdmgl6190

    I giggle whenever Alex' brother makes brief appearances in your videos because he's always such a contrast to you two 😭 he always looks so.... Modern

  • @helenburke9507

    I love watching y’all work together ! Seamless and compliment each other’s work. Cherish each day together. Thank you for allowing us into your world of wonders. Be safe always

    Your oak tree! If I had such a magical tree I would celebrate every solstice by visiting it! I'd probably hang fabric and bead strings as offerings.

  • @gebswife

    Ah, I absolutely love your home and land. No wonder y’all are so calm.🌹

  • @Quill._

    Every significant piece of land has a very old tree who imparts knowledge to the younger trees. It’s known as the Wisdom Tree. Your ancient oak is your Wisdom Tree.

  • @nanettecanter6118

    No job too big, no job too small you do it all. Love watching your progress. Great job ladies.

  • @JustOneKnight

    How blessed you are to live in such a beautiful place. A life that some of us can only dream of. Wonderful and thank you for sharing.

    Isn't nature just the best thing to lift your spirits. To see that poor old tree blown over in the storm was very sad...but look at the way it still clung on. Shooting out saplings and no doubt feeding lots of little creatures that most would dismiss in a heart beat. The old oak tree with the little mose was so lovely. As a child my friends and i used to picnic under an old horse cestnut tree not unlike that one. It had a massive trunk on it and sat right dead centre of a corn field. I cried when it was cut unceremoniously to make way for a council housing. I could not understand why they cut it down. It could have stayed on the estate and made something beautiful, amoungst the rows of similar flat looking houses. A nod to the beauty that was once there.

    Really enjoyed the video. You two work so well together. Im so glad the tree cutting rooted. Now the old chestnut 🌰 tree can live on.

  • @bearrivermama6414

    I could not help but think of Groot from “Guardians of the Galaxy “ you are nurturing your very own Groot❤😂

  • @thekenneth3486

    I just love to watch you two do just about anything. Shwoos and all!

  • @Samphire2

    I am really enjoying this new channel, you have such an idyllic and beautiful area of land that i actually find it very peaceful watching you both carry out tasks in such a wonderful setting. The music you play is beautiful and goes very well with the scenery. It must be hard work keeping up an area like that, but you are doing a great job. I really love the idea of giving back to nature and making changes that help the creatures around us, we are on earth for such a short time in the grand scheme of things, and what we choose to do with our little (or big) plots of land can make a big difference. I very much look forward to seeing some of the projects you have mentioned in the future.

  • @katherineashley5712

    Alex and Gail, I just love this new channel! I love watching you work around your property, and seeing your connection to nature. Take care you two.
