Frances Tophill is visiting her very first garden of the season, eager for a summer catch-up and to hear about the changes since she moved. She’s particularly keen to show off a newly designed structure, custom-built for her small plot. But her visit to the allotment is not without its challenges, as a tidy-up reveals some unexpected problems. Adam Frost encounters a fellow enthusiast who shares how gardening has profoundly impacted his life. In the Cotswolds, Advolly Richmond presents a remarkable example of arts and crafts gardening. The program includes a visit to Mr Pelargonium – a name, it must be noted, not his own – a font of knowledge on the vibrant and adaptable pelargonium plant, and to a gardener who has transformed his backyard into a thriving perennial meadow. And, as always, there are more films submitted by viewers.
