  • Fabulous, Pam. Loved your excellent commentary too...somehow I guessed you would have a gentle voice.

    Comparing with my own patch, I could draw comfort from knowing my tomatoes & runner beans were perhaps a smidgen ahead of yours.

    Wonderful garden!

    Well it puts my garden to shame, what a treat to watch the video and has given me so many ideas.  Thank you it was a delight watching it.

    In case you didn't read my message on Fork Handles we had around 180 visitors and made £700.00 for the NGS and our chosen charity image

    Hi again! Lilylouise

    I noticed on the video that you had Blueberries growing in a pot, can you tell me which plant you used and what time of the year can I buy one to plant up.

    Regards Chris

    Well, comparing it with my patch, let's just say that I won't be posting any photos of my petunias or fuschias. image

    Pam, your garden is stunning- The baskets are fantastic and everything looks so lush. You must work so very hard on maintaining it. What a lovely video to start the morning with - thank you for sharing your spectacular garden with us. Hope my blue basil grows as well as yours - its doing really well up to now.

    Very nice formal garden, such pretty colour combinations. Do you live by a very busy main road? image

  • Beautiful garden Pam, I loved watching the video very much.  Well done.  Loved the blue basil I shall look for that as well, did you grow it from seed?   I also have the lily disease, hopefully next year will be much better year for them.

    Chris - I think my plants are Bluecrop - I do have a couple of other varieties in a small border as well - but the ones in pots do best. They are about 5 years old nowimage

    Spring is probably a good time to plant them  they like acid conditions and plenty of water image
