    some reservations about this one, some jarring edit work, but there's some good stuff in there,

    Interesting. The voiceover sounds like it comes from 1968 with music from 1936, oddly overlaid by interviews from this year. :D

    I've posted this series of "The Art of the Garden" before. Eight 45 min vids sponsored by

    Thanks for all the replies. I have been busy but had a look at a few this morning. 

    I also found this guy, Mike Kincaid, taking cuttings of roses and have subscribed.

    Interestingly he left some leaves on. I have only ever seen rose cutting being taken with all the leaves stripped off. 

    I'm planning on taking a few cuttings in from my rose in preparation for when we move to a bigger house and garden.

    R.A. Javier doesn't create their own content but re-posts lots of gardening series, include each week's GW and seasons from Carol Klein.

    I do like Carol. Her enthusiasm and energy is awesome. If Monty ever left I'd want her to get the main presenter role.

    I find Carol's squeaking enthusisam a bit much and one-note. She is "untrained" (didn't study horticultural at college), like Monty, and very knowledgable. I think she might stand a chance of 'taking over' is she was a bit more 'serious in manner' - from the BBC's point of view. Her series do pack in a great deal of practical teaching.

    I think it unlikely Carol K would take over. She's 77 now and while she comes across as 20 years younger, who would want the hassle of heading up GW when she's got such a good arrangement with C5?

    Most that I watch (and I don't watch a lot) have already been mentioned. Has anyone linked to Beth Chatto's yet though?

    I didn't think she was that old!

    Bunny is pushing 70 and is just tremendous.

    I'd like to be like her when I grow up.
