She has some mate help her do all the hard work and after he'd laid a patio for her, she decided to rip it up then complained when he didn't come back.
Yes, at least the one with the 'Italianate' garden didn't seem to mind parting with plenty of her inherited cash to a team of landscapers who undoubtedly did all the work - didn't see her dirty a fingernail - in order to be able to say that MD designed her garden, and invited all her friends to party with him at the reveal - she'll dine off that one for years
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I'm finding more of the people slightly irritating than I ever did in the previous series. Do you think it's because they're doing an Andy Warhol - ie, just want their fifteen minutes - and are playing to the cameras more because they now see how the programme works? I feel the previous ones were much more genuine and interested in what they could achieve, and wanted some real advice rather than just getting on the telly.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Going to have to watch it again - didn't notice anything the first time round. Maybe coz I had a glass of white in my hand myself. I think you're right Fairy .....the first series of these things are always the best .....after that you get people with a pre-conceived idea wanting to join in. I actually watched, and enjoyed, the very first series of Big Brother (remember Anna the Nun ??) ......but never again after that.
My thalias haven't appeared yet either - and I'm in the supposedly balmy southeast

Yes, that sealed it for me too! LOL And I'm sorry, that woman was soooooooo irritating - even more irritating that the Mad Hatter in the other garden

The "mad hatter" woman was a joke.

LOL I've just watched Monty
I also forget the name of plants if I've been on the sherbet, but think I'd remember olive tree.
that alice in wonderland garden was a joke. The " rockery" was a joke, the table and 2 chairs in the middle of a planted border was a joke.

Chicky, they do the reveal, sit around having a bit of a party,then Monty has a bit of a moment with the 2 sisters. and slurs how wodderflooll it is.
My Thalia are just starting to open now.
Know what you mean Chicky.
I remember Anna looking into one of the cameras in BB1 and saying " do you think anyone is actually watching this? "
Playing to the gallery in every other series.
I'd like to see them return to these gardens. Bet half of the 'odd' ones get returned to paving and grass and a few sad looking plants....

Some gardening knowledge, however basic, should be required before participating.
