    Oh I love this project Gemma. It’s going to look brilliant next year. Can’t wait to see it
    You’ve worked so hard already. I love that stone bird feeder. It’s amazing.

      Hey Claire ☺️ it's so nice to be doing things in the garden as it's been a bit neglected the last few years 😀 The Stone Feeder is one of my favourite free finds! I'm always on Gumtree having a look!

    You could have beds each side of a seating area with maybe a big arch from one bed to the other too so you can still see the roses when you look through it 🌺 so many things you could do

    Looks like a great growing area. For lettuces you might think of having them in a bed that get slightly less sun, to avoid bolting, if that helps you decide the setup. Might not matter much in autumn/spring, but I hope you get a sunny summer next year.

    I have done the same with an area of my garden. I have no seating area though. I have got my salads, beans and a fruit cage. Well, anything that needs picking frequently and that i use on a daily basis. If that was my area , I would arrange 3 deep beds in a 'U' shape, one down each side and one at the front and immerse myself in the scents of herbs and salads- easy picking too! Happy gardening 🙂

    Hello Gemma,
    Just watched your latest vlog in your home garden.
    I would see where the most sun is then put your beds down, and then place your table and chairs around them.
    Nice to see a little Robin in the garden, they are a sign of someone who has past who has come to say hello.❤

    That little apple tree is *LOADED*. We have too many squirrels in our backyard, I think I will have to _deal_ with them if I expect to get a nice crop of apples & pears in the coming years. I couldn't help but notice you have an impressive stockpile of soil amendments on hand in your greenhouse. Here in the states we used to be able to buy them cheap at the end of each growing season. Now it's gotten so hard to find potting mix, fertilizers, compost, coco coir, perlite, vermiculite, etc. marked down.

    • @GemInTheGarden
      @GemInTheGarden  Місяць тому +1

      Yes, our Apple Trees did so well this year! Yes I do use soil ammendments as I have really heavy clay but like you say, they are rarely in the sale now and expensive so I try and stock up while I can 👍👍

    I would have one bed either side - you must get more shade one side or the other? So you could put your lettuces etc in the shady side and your sun loving herbs in the sunniest side? Good luck! Exciting! X
