And two of the missing episodes of Landträume have appeared on the Servus TV website. The first one is about gardens and landscapes in Schonen, in Sweden.
Another gorgeous day here in The Netherlands, and even better because it's Saturday, whoopeee
I've got quite a few garden programmes today. Starting of course with Gardening Australia. Here is what's in today's show.
Bringing the Outdoors In: Costa explores the world of indoor plants, profiling some tough species and how to care for them.
FAQs - Worm Castings | Lilly Pilly Fruit | Sick Plants: Answers to frequently asked questions from emails, letters and Facebook.
Small Garden; Big Ideas: Josh drops in on friend and garden designer, Sue Torlach, to find a small garden that's packed with ideas for gardeners everywhere.
Stop the Sap Suckers: Jerry shows how to manage ants farming sap-sucking insects on garden plants.
Winter Fragrance: Jane looks at some of the best performers for winter fragrance in the garden.
Free Gardening: Tino shows how to plant out a new flower bed for free by digging and dividing existing plants from the garden.
A Modern Approach: John visits a 1960s house and garden in the Melbourne bay side suburb of Beaumaris that's a beautiful example of integrated, modernist design.
Programme should be available from around 12.00 here...
It looks like it's going to be yet another hot, sunny day here in The Netherlands.
Not much happening on the web at the moment, but I did find a new gardening programme from the Chicago region of the USA on YouTube. They visit a local garden an here is what else is in the programme...
A wide variety of hostas, purple shamrocks, a grafted mulberry tree and much more in the meticulous backyard garden in the Upper Midwest of the United States. The area has four seasons of care and feeding for plants and trees. We also talk about fertilizers and water retention products for planted and potted plants.
Another beautiful sunny day here in The Netherlands.
Again not many new programmes on the web today.
First the new episode of Garden Time. And this is what's in it...
This week on the show we learn about clumping and running types of bamboo, we visit an island where teach kids about healthy eating, we do a 'crawl' of some small nurseries and we visit a coffee plantation.
And a German version of an American programme which isn't a garden programme. It's called Hot and Spicy and it's about things like hot sauces, made of chilies. It shows which chilies are the hottest and also has bits about wasabi roots, and spices like pepper corns. I've only seen a bit of it, but found it quite interesting and sometimes amusing. It even has a bit about pepper spray!

Good morning everyone,
Lovely snny morning here in The Netherlands. Pity that I'm stuck in a stuffy office.
Not much gardening on the web today, and the Servus TV website still seems to have gremlins.

Good morning, everyone,
Light rain here in The Netherlands at the moment, and rather cool.
Here is what I've managed to find on the web today.

Good morning everyone,
Lovely and sunny here in the middle of The Netherlands at the moment, but some rain expected later.
Here is today's harvest of gardening programmes from the web.
First the German MDR Garten. This time with items about how to thin the fruit on your fruit trees, and a drip hose in the vegetable garden.
http://www.mdr.de/mediathek/fernsehen/a-z/sendung552824_letter-M_zc-6932cf5d_zs-dea15b49.html
