The disabled gardening section was really good, and it was great to see Mark actually planting something rather than just saying what he would use.
However, almost all the tips understandably relied on having two hands available - impossible to push the trolley and move the chair with only one functioning hand, or use the (rather good) grabber plus secateur method. The planting could be done one handed, and has been noted :-). Some tips & tricks for gardening after a stroke, given that it's the leading cause of disability in this country, would be a good follow up I think.

I suspect Monty's caution on the ensata was based on personal experience. Here in the SE mine have been fine too, but he's a lot further north than me.

Did anyone else notice that Brian Skilton the gardener in the "wilding" garden used to be Jamie Olivers gardener in Jamie at Home ? Lovely voice, gentle but with gravitas.
