Growing plants and keeping 'pets' - the two greatest balms for the Soul ! And we English are passionate about BOTH.
I rented a house where the large garden was just mud. The landlord said I could do what I like with the garden, so for two years put in a beautiful cottage garden with lots of flowers to encourage insects. We've just moved out, and the landlord wants me to pay for the whole thing to be rotivated to mud again. It's utterly heart breaking.
I would pull up all the flowers, bushes and plant and take them with you. If you can't do that. Go on freecycle or Craigslist and give them away.
Oh, that is heartbreaking! He doesn't want to take care of it, I guess?
@@nspector it's because he pays his friend who does the garden, half, and he keeps half. We had to pay £200 to have his friend rotovate it all. He also tried to charge us for moving furniture which he himself moved before we rented the property. I feel sorry for his new tenants.
@@Skyewalker1000 Oh, dear. I see.
@@pamelaboyd6509 ahahaha, correct !!!!
So helpful, thank you! Making little furrows with the rake for the seeds is such a useful and easy idea!
I love how chilled he is, as if you can’t do anything wrong then suddenly he tells you something that’s wrong
Well hes part of the Elite Establishment so he has no cares
Nice use of space in that design. Most urban gardens have a lawn in the middle and borders around the outside. This one had a big border in the middle with gravel paths around the outside. If you don't need a lawn for children or pets and have limited space then this offers a great alternative and provides a lot more scope for planting.
Gosh, that's a beautiful garden.
very good range of flowers and colour , this video is helping me to decide which plants i want to use in my garden
I’m Montagnard Indigenous, I really love you garden it’s so lovely.
My favourite type of garden!! Love
One of the best garden videos and information .
Thanks for a great video! I am planning to grow m own garden in the future.
lovely garden!
Mr T is the man for gardening , here in the UK
I also collected seaweed from the beach when a friend took me there & that seemed to help a lot too.
Fascinating to listen to- you really have a knack for narrating. :) Thank you for the great tips on gardening!
Lovely idea to have island flower beds with paths linking them. I prefer perennials to annuals and am in mid-spring here in Melbourne, Australia. Some perennials have burst into flower while others are growing taller. I like mixed garden beds - some perennials, some shrubs, some trees,

Don't know this person but he has inspired me to start gardening
very helpful
Great work 🇮🇳
For some reason I have spent the last 4 hours watching gardening advice videos despite not having a garden. But I have learned something: the number of British gardeners who recommend gravel as pathway material strongly suggests to me that they don’t typically walk around their yards barefoot in Britain. My American feet are wincing at the idea of walking on that all summer
😂
Great burglar alarm! But no we Brits don't have gravel everywhere lots of grass!
I envy your beautiful soil.
Sub immediately, those flowers are radiating colors💕
nice video
So beautiful chanal
I love your yard. Mine used to be lush but now water is so expensive here in California )-:
Sorry😞 Recycle spring water. When it rain try to connect rain barrel and save water.
Sorry 😞 try to save rain water in rain barrel that may help keeping your plants alive.
Lorena Arias That’s the problem. It doesn’t rain.
its cheaper if you use bottled water. 😂😂😂
I moved from a rainy region to a dry one some 20 years ago. It was difficult to adapt my kind of gardening to this región, but now I can tell you I'm in love with succulents and cactus. And my garden is of course in a very different style, but feels as green, full of Life and color as the one before 🌻
Look for Laura Eubanks and Debra Lee Baldwin gardens for great landscaping un dryer climates!
tough as old boots!

I would give almost anything if my soil looked like that. Instead it is loaded with heavy, red clay. :(
add wood chips on top in no time you will have a great growing medium . My garden was all clay and sand could grow nothing, WATCH BACK TO EDEN GARDEN UTUBE, All the best.
My garden was like that too when I moved in. I didnt have much money & no transport of my own & virtually nothing was growing in it, so I trimmed the abundantly growing Forsythia & chopped all the sprigs off it into small pieces & dug it in. The soil started improving immediately. What had been so clayey that the water just ran off of it, instead of sinking in, was transformed by the next spring.
Dig out as much of the red clay in the areas where you want to plant something, replace that soil with the top soil from lowest or home depot it is a really big bag of good soil for $2 a bag. I do that every year
But with clay you can make a self sealing pond very easily, and start attracting wildlife! 🐸

Is it just me or does he sound like Winnie the Pooh.. 😁
Yes, very comfortable voice.
'A crumb like texture'...
*cries in heavy clay soil*
Clay soil is good for making a self sealing pond! 😉
