Anyone else think the R De T episode on cut flowers was done by Sarah Raven a couple of years ago? Come on BBC. Anyone else prefer to see someone else other than R De T on TV?
I really like Rachel de Thame and she has a similar taste in flowers to me. I saw a cut flowers programme by Sarah Raven, but although the same theme, it wasn't the same. I enjoyed the cut flowers bit and the tree bit.
R de T's bit reminded me of growing the flowers for my daughter's wedding a few years ago, took over a good chunk of the veggie garden! I bought the gypsophila, wouldn't germinate, and the lilies though.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
I find Rachel much more approchable than Sarah and enjoyed her part of the programme. Gorgeous flowers for the garden and for flower arrangers.
I liked some of the birches Joe showed us - interesting bark colours and forms - but I'm not sure they're suitable for most suburban gardens, especially the small ones in new developments. Fast growing, prone to blowing over in strong winds and short life span. I wish they'd replace him with Mr Beardshaw or Mr Sinclair though. Don't like Joe's presentation style and he isn't a plantsman.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.
"The price good men (and women) pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men (and women)."
I really liked the cut flowers so pretty and grown from seed yourself enjoy watching Rachel de Thame, really like to grow cut flowers just need to keep the slugs away, like the trees have nice bark colours, have trees in our garden and am adding a few holly trees to the garden this year
Or at least I assume so - the company I brought my pond from had a little poster in their window reminding everyone to watch it tonight (think it involved Ms. Dimmock - I fear I was somewhat distracted to look at the poster properly).
Clarington - ponds on Thursday night it would of been tonight if the shows did not get bumped off TV a few nights - I am waiting for that one I like Charlie Dimmock and am re-doing the pond area like you
tonight rock garden and herb gardens Carol K and Toby B

Oh thank goodness you told me I'd have ended up ever so confused! (Easily done).

Tonight should be interesting as its about ponds.
