Gardening magazine.
Summer is well and truly in its stride and it is the perfect time to be outside enjoying our gardens. In this hour-long programme, Toby Buckland shows us how to make a beautiful but simple garden path and, in true cottage garden spirit, uses recycled materials from both the home and the garden to create a perfect informal look.
Carol Klein finds inspiration on her Devon doorstep when she visits the faithfully restored Victorian vegetable garden at Knightshayes Court. She also continues her investigation into plant families at Glebe Cottage as she delves into the fascinating members of the Campanula family. From Bell Flowers to Lobelia, she unearths the common traits that they all share.
Joe Swift's sustainable back garden at Greenacre is taking shape. It is the perfect environment in which to sit out and enjoy the tranquillity and calm of his elegant design. With that in mind, he shows us how to make a simple bench from a reclaimed pallet. It is the perfect addition to his space, showing that high design doesn't need to mean high price!
And Alys Fowler is taking the plunge in this summer's garden must-have: a natural swimming pond. She meets a couple who could not decide between a traditional swimming pool and a pond in their garden, so they settled on this understated but luxurious compromise.
