    I really enjoyed the drone shots of Long Meadow. Not seen that before. I would love more of those to get a sense of the whole plot.

    It seemed to have a lighter tone somehow. Perhaps it was less "preachy"
    I never find it preachy.

    I thought the drone shots were really good. They gave a sense of the layout and structure of the garden which can be difficult,  given Monty's style. I think many of the featured gardens could get the same treatment.

    8pm tonight. 

    " Monty plants garlic, demonstrates how to divide crocosmia and sows ornamental grass seeds.

    Adam Frost visits Lowther Castle in the Lake District and finds out about its garden restoration project, Toby Buckland meets a passionate gardener in Devon who has created and nurtured her garden over the last sixty years, and a dahlia enthusiast in Cheshire shares the joy of drying her blooms.

    In Bristol is a garden where the wildlife takes centre stage, and more viewers share what they’ve been getting up to in their gardens."

    Must admit that l enjoyed this week's programme. 
    The lady's garden that Toby Buckland visited was absolutely beautiful, and l enjoyed the visit to the LA balcony. It always amazes me that wildlife will even visit a balcony high up in downtown LA.

    The wildlife gardener had some really interesting ideas, and the allotment garden in Leicester was definitely quirky. So colourful. 

    I didn't realise that dried dahlias could look completely different from the original flower. I'm  not sure what she did with all the dried flowers though ? There were so many.

    If l ever visit the Lake District again, Lowther Castle is definitely on the list of places to visit.

    " Adam Frost shares the progress that's been made in his garden. Frances Tophill heads to the beach to reveal what gardeners can learn from the coastal plants which have evolved to cope with more extreme conditions. She also meets a head gardener in East Sussex who’s experimenting with drought-tolerant plants in our ever-changing climate.

    There's a tree champion in Gloucestershire who has planted and cared for hundreds of fruits trees on a mission to revive lost orchards, and a wildlife gardener in Bristol with a passion for birds. Also in the programme, more viewers share what they’ve been getting up to in their gardens."
