I always enjoy seeing the bees buzzing around your plants. Hope your Scots Pine pulls through as we become attached to our plants over the years. Loved the ghost story!
No BBC Gardeners World tonight so I got my weekly fix through your video. Simply sublime ….. and I feel just as chilled as though I had watched GW. Thank you :)
Wow Angus, that is an incredible compliment as GW is huge boots to help fill on a Friday night. We’ll be watching Monty with you next Friday and thank you for your lovely comment.
I love autumn in this garden. The colours are still there but the atmosphere is softer, more in tune with the temperatures and the morning dew, more conducive to meditation, like a final lap before the end. I would also watch the tale again because I didn't fully understand all the subtlety of the end. Excellent idea in any case to have mixed ingredients that harmonize so well. Regards JL
Wow, your ghost story gave me goosebumps! The garden is looking gorgeous as always, thank you for another delightful tour, I hope the fritillaries make their beautiful appearance in spring.
Your well-anticipated videos are always filled with such a wealth of beauty and information. The colors were so pretty. I wish that sweet pine a healthy recuperation over the winter. With your care, how can it not! Looking forward to see if those tiny bulbs come out of the ground for you…hope so! I stayed for the ghost story! 👻
Hi Diane, thank you for sharing your anticipation and enjoyment with us and for the recovery wishes to our poorly pine. A heartfelt thank you from us and the pine!
From Houston: Thank you for the ghost story! That was really fun! Your garden is just spectacular! I know it takes a great deal of work for the maintenance and implementing new ideas.
I had a similar experience in our other home. I felt the presence of a couple standing by our bed each night. I finally asked what they wanted and they left. As we painted each room to make it our own, as we scraped away the old paint it turns out the paint I had purchased was it’s original color.
Lovely video as always, very calming, we cut back our Fatsia Japonica quite hard last year as it wasn’t doing too well and it’s been brilliant this year very healthy and lush😃loved the ghost story
Isn’t it is always a relief to see healthy new foliage emerging after boldly cutting a plant back! Sounds as if you did an excellent job. Thank you for sharing your enjoyment of the story.
Hello again, and Thanks for a wonderful video 🙏👩🌾the last 10 years or so I grow tagetes minuta, in a big pot.. the Aztec indian used this plant between corn and other important crops…it’s good for virus and fungus and I use it for all my plants including ourselves for colds… it have saved a lot of plants and it’s scientifically proved … nothing to loose and a nice tall plant 👩🌾🪴🥰
Hi Annette, lovely to have your company and we are intrigued by Tagetes minuta, as you have introduced us to the superpowers of an unfamiliar plant. This sounds very promising - thank you so much and sending our best wishes.
As always I enjoyed your video immensely and I look forward to next month's installment. I'm intrigued by your tablecloth at the beginning of the video. Such vibrant colours. May I ask what fabric it is? Thank you!
When I tried to plant some snakeshead fritillary this year, they kept tipping over as I dropped them in the hole. I probably should have used tweezers to guide them in. We'll see in the spring how many of them managed to land upright.
The upright ones may emerge first but the others will most likely u-turn their shoots to head up in the right direction, with mysterious homing pigeon instinct.

Thank you Wendy, lovely to have your company as always and happy you enjoyed the ghostly tale as well as the busy bumblebees!

How intriguing Amy, to make that discovery. And how brave to ask the couple what they wanted!

Thank you so much! The fabulous fungi-design linen tablecloth was from Liberty London. Sending our best wishes.

Morning. Please tell me what variety of dahlia was it that you showed at the very beginning of the video. Thanks in advance. X
Morning Deb, that is gorgeous dahlia ‘Lou Farman’.
