Loved Carol's programme. Gave up on GW after many years - right from watching Percy Thrower with my mother! Am itching for the rain to stop here in Dorset so I can get out and put Carol's advice and expertise into practice. She has such infectious enthusiasm. One question: how does she get the dirt off her hands after a session in the garden?
I've always liked watching Carol - loved the way she anchored Gardener's World when Monty Don was taken ill and was very disappointed that she was pushed aside for Toby. The first programme of Carol's new series spurred me into the garden the following day, fortunately a mild day although there was still some snow about and the ponds were frozen, but, oh, how good to get those hands dirty collecting all those leaves that had been hiding for a month under snow. After programme two I've been inspired to cloud prune a low box hedge. I wonder what I'll do after programme three! Half an hour passes so quickly.
bit of friday night sanity, so much info. to absorb, such a lovely lady with so much wit and clarity.gardening should be like she does it..I wish! her style befits her programme,eagerly await the next episode!
At last a real gardening programme to look forward to on a Friday evening. Carol's hands on, informative and inspirational gardening is a joy to watch. I immediately went out and bought her book which is also excellent. Please BBC more programmes for real gardeners.
Iam really enjoying joining carol in here garden every friday as she makes everything she does so interesting,am looking forward to reading her book about the prog.Well done carol look forward to the rest of the series also when you will be back in the spring with Gardeners World.
Dear Carol I have tried for two years to find substantial grey seedling pots like yours, which don't break up when you lift them up. Any ideas who supplies them now please? Thanks Pat
Dear Carol, Congratulations on your new series, I found it really inspiring. I have learnt so much from watching you and reading your books and, like you, I am starting to increase my stock by seed collecting and propagation. Thank you for being so contagiously enthusiastic.
