    To each his own Fairygirl. That's why I record it and FF the bits in which I have no interest.

    I have only watched one of the new series of GW, and never watch any shows.Monty loves his banana plants as much as he loves his dead box hedges.

    I did enjoy the coverage of the flower show, perfect plants which I must admit I would dearly love to produce.

    The Faversham border was lovely.

    As a novice, I have to say I rather enjoy the programme, as does my wife. I learn a lot from it, such as for some reason 😉 Monty’s soil is rather better than ours.

    I was very envious of Adam Frost's soil - oh to be able just to plant like that !

    He's put a lot of work into it, cleaning out weeds and piling on horse muck and such.   We can all do it, given time, will and lots of muck.

    @raisingirl, you're right, I'd not noticed. 
    "D'you know" Adam's garden is indeed coming along in leaps and bounds. I love it.

    A healthy budget and some hired help must aid the process too , methinks.
