According to the weather reports, winter is about to hit here in the middle of The Netherlands, brrr.
In that case I may need some good gardening programmes to keep me going...
Here is what I managed to find on the web today.
PBS has finally uploaded the episode of Making it Grow from 15 December.
Here is what's in it...
Our studio guests are Laura Lester and Valerie Davis Lee who will highlight many S.C. products that would be great additions to holiday meals. We also have Dr. Patrick McMillan and floriculture physiologist Dr. Jim Faust talking about and showing a wide variety of poinsettias. Amanda visits The Old Santee Canal Park.
The Central Texas Gardener has uploaded a new episode.
This is what's in it...
Designer and gardener Jenny Peterson takes us on her poignant and spirited healing journey with cancer in The Cancer Survivor’s Garden Companion: Cultivating Hope, Healing and Joy in the Ground Beneath Your Feet. On tour, Elayne Lansford welded a magical Bottle Tree World for strengthening renewal when she and her husband both faced cancer.
German garden programme Grünzeug has been looking at how cut flowers get from the grower to the customer.They also look at spring indoors and outside, and have been making bird boxes for children.
Silence, ça pousse visited that guy in the UK who grows trees and other furniture.
They also went to Ungersheim and to the gardens of the château de la Chassaigne, in Thiers, in Auvergne. And of course the helped someone with a garden problem.
I blame the male blackbird who spends loads of time sitting outside the window of my office. Yesterday he made some feeble attempts at singing. I KNEW that was a bad idea!
MDR Garten has been out and about, looking at garden shows. They also look at plants for graves and alternatives for box.
Jardins et Loisirs visited the gardens of the Chateau de Modave, the garden of Hof Ten Soniën, spoke to a garden photographer, and had a look at a patio. Featured plant is the Gillenia trifoliata.

Good morning everyone,
Bucketing down with rain again here, ugh.
But at least Jardins et Loisirs has uploaded its latest episode.
This time they visit a garden centre, look at plants for a balcony, visit the Ferme du Chant des Cailles, and featured plant is Nicotiana sylvestris.

Good morning everyone,
Here is what I've managed to find on the web today.

No prizes for guessing what I'll be eating tonight!

Have a good Sunday!

I blame the male blackbird who spends loads of time sitting outside the window of my office. Yesterday he made some feeble attempts at singing. I KNEW that was a bad idea!

Good morning Verdun,
Only just saw your posting.
Was rather busy yesterday, so no time to lurk here.
Hope you had a good day too.
Will post the latest gardening stuff in a minute. Am a bit late today, because of other stuff I have to do first.
Have a good day today!
