  • TAKING UA-camS ADVICE, THIS IS A RE-RUN AND RETITLE OF THE ORIGINAL SERIES THAT WAS FILMED OVER THE INITIAL COVID YEAR.
    A gardeners world; Nursery, gardens, propagation, plants galore and all the growing tips that go with them. A unique weekly documentary series filmed throughout 2020. A must for gardeners worldwide.
    Informative, irreverent, funny and totally without comparison. After a lifetime in horticulture, Malcolm Hockham and his young team answer The Royal Horticultural Societies 2019 article that the industry is in crisis. Not here it isn't!.....Malcolms final full year on the nursery shows you why.
    Here we are again.....these weeks seem to come round so quickly and I'm never sure what to film that isn't repetitive....but it still seems to come together in some sort of order, though there are one or two meandering this week that, given time, i'd probably edited out or refined down. i just don't have time, so please get what you can and forget the waffle....best wishes to all....Malcolm

    Thank you for the Churchyard walk and talk, Malcolm. I found the death timeline very interesting. We don't reflect on the social differences of past generations often enough.

    Cant thank you enough Malcolm. Now in the process of changing my raised beds to grow tubs. Izal comments made me chuckle but the masks convulsed me in laughter. What a tonic you are. Horticultural info so very useful and mixed with the humour it is essential viewing. P.S. Like the added content from Barthelemy.

    Every video is a blast. You are so informative and hilarious simultaneously. Here in USA I get most of my seeds online from: DOLLAR SEEDS, LE JARDIN DES GOURMET(where each small pack is 40c), and Christmas Tree shops where all the seed packs are half price. All fresh. I prefer not to buy anything at all from Walmart if it can be avoided, even if I do fit the demographic described by the snooty elites. I got some flower seeds from UK, I think from Plant World...some stuff is growing, others not yet, hope they do.

    I've seen you show that bush with the blue flowers in a couple videos but I didn't catch the name of it. Can't find anything like it on line. I was also wondering if you ship to New York. You have thinks I've not seen before but would like to get. Love the weekly tours.

    Mecanopsis cambrica self-seeds politely almost everywhere in my garden - mostly yellow but when it comes up orange it's one of the few orange flowers I enjoy and the bees love it. PS Googled it out of idle curiosity and RHS seem to have reclassified it as Papaver cambrica! When I was at Houghall they had just decided it was Mecanopsis. We live and learn

    I got 20 of Wendy's baby maples delivered to me here in Ireland last week and potted them on, they are all together in raggy black pots and they look absolutely gorgeous. Transformed the corner they are in. Stunning.
    I'd be happy to stand all day and pot them, I just wouldn't like the part where you have to sell them.

    I remember the movie with Clyde the orangutan, I best the tree reminds them of of Clyde bc if the way the greenery hangs on each branch. Orangutans have very long hair on their arms that hangs down just like that

    • @laurenb6451
      @laurenb6451 3 роки тому

      There’s one of those trees near our house that my husband loves but our yard is pretty small and I think it will be too big, though not in our lifetime but somebody else would cut it down. So I tell him to enjoy the one we pass.

    I so enjoyed this show and tell, and ALL parts of this video, especially the story of the churchyard, thank you 😃. Ps., I grew some cabbage and broccoli together in grow bags, they did really well, I was using them as cut and grow again, just picking like you did the kale, but yesterday there were 100s of caterpillars so sad, how they just appeared, all devastated, gave me the Willis seeing all that wiggling binned the lot....I thought I had done so well too, even were on the lettuce, along with slugs, so they went too! I’m interested to see if yours get them and what you do to avoid it, the ones I had in big black pots were even worse! 😞

    • @laurenb6451
      @laurenb6451 3 роки тому

      If those were cabbage caterpillars then you can judiciously apply Bacillus thuriengensis, only to the affected plants, all sides. I mix in some molasses too, or else it runs off the leaves. Don’t spray it anywhere else cuz it kills caterpillars, even the good ones. SOMEBODY CHECK THAT THIS IS AN APPROVED SUGGESTION PLEASE. You can also drape some sort of floating row cover on them but they always seem to find a way in, especially since some of our kale plants are so ginormous!

    That wedding cake tree is the centerfold of this plant porn! Id almost kill for one its one of lol the sexiest trees i know of and i have yet to find one in the usa for sale help someone!!!! I must have it!!!! Ive stolen cornus alternifolia which is green but similar in structure from the woods here in appalachia but its not a wedding cake tree. I also have a beautiful wolf eyes dogwood but it not a weddingcake tree either. Ive named my jubilee weeping alaskan cedar the grinch tree considering it looks like the grinch!

    • @plantsmanscorner128
      @plantsmanscorner128  4 роки тому +1

      Matt.....you are a obviously a woody plant lover. The green alternifolia is used as a rootstock. I’ve also planted one I’ve been hiding for a few years called ‘silver giant’....that’s nice also....I like wolf eyes, we have a specimen by our main entrance......best wishes....Malcolm

      Thank you Paddy....it’s so lovely to hear people enjoy them.....they make my wife wince sometimes, but she just about tolerates things...and especially thank you for the lilium identification...they are not my strongest area and it’s always nice to get feedback, advice, and information. I’ve had 50 years working in the business and I haven’t scratched the surface of what there is to know....too much to learn and not enough days in one lifetime. Very best wishes....Malcolm

      Plantsmans Corner well you’ve taught me a thing or two & I’ve been growing for many years, you’ve like a breath of fresh air great entertainment as well as informative, I’m an alpine gardener but a plantaholic really would just love a nosey round your nursery not many like that any more ... give that little tucker a hug from me just love him ... I’m in Hampshire we will be visiting the Acer nursery soon have already had 3 in the post thanks for sharing 😊

    I always love to see the churchyard . I wonder if they will become a thing of the past as cremation is so much cheaper and then you just have a relative toss you into the ocean, forest, or someplace meaningful...... unless you're a bastard then you might just end up in a ditch on the way home from the crematorium. I guess you're not the only one whose train of thought sometimes derails.

    • @plantsmanscorner128
      @plantsmanscorner128  4 роки тому

      I think it was discovered in Mrs Patrica Marrows Somerset garden by her gardener.....It started out as Mrs Marrows plum but they later decided to call it the less formal Patty’s Plum. It was one of the first Oriental Poppy’s to be successfully micropropagated Granny......Hope your well and enjoying this warm dry season so far. Best wishes....Malcolm

      @@plantsmanscorner128 Apologies if you thought I was shouting at you! I was correcting myself calling this gorgeous poppy a peony. Most interesting to learn how it got its name. It's very special to me because my mum liked the colour and it always flowers on her birthday (31st May). Thanks for the kind wishes Malcolm. Stay safe and well.
