    Well! Isn’t this a treat? This is my first exposure to John and his garden, and one does not get a chance to catch up, isn’t it? A most energetic and scattered tour of a sumptuous bevy of plants and paths and secret places, where, supposedly, I have to take a number along with the bees and wasps to get access... well done, I say!💐

    Great to see a very good border on it's way to becoming a potentially magnificent border, highlight (of many) for me was the pop of the Ulmus Wredei ...previously when you showcased the Cotinus Grace i had thought of going down that path or maybe the golden spirit version ...but the downside is the endless (or at least seasonal) pruning required. Many have commented on wishing to see more of you ..but sometimes it's good to wait for a good thing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

    I really like the wood edging you do on the flower beds. Can I ask: what wood is it, is it perfectly round, half buried or spiked into the ground? Thank you from Canada for all your wonderful words of wisdom in the garden. You have taught me so much!

    John. My new boxwood ( I got off some “lad” ) is not doing well at all. I suspect it’s boxwood blight. Would you do a video on that please. Some of the plants ( 80) have leaves are very black spotty and a few are loosing leaves. Most of them were yellowish which I thought was lacking in nutrition. I’ve had them a few months now.

      If you grip a leaf or the stem firmly with your fingertips, it doesn't hurt, like it does when you brush against it. But he's probably just used to them. 😄 Also some nettles are definitely angrier than others!
