- Come join me on a planty outing to discover the walled botanic garden run by the Hardy Plant Society Nottingham group at Wollaton Hall. I meet Erica who tells me all about how the garden was set up and she shares with me a compelling story about a fern that is very close to her heart and family.
I hope you don't mind the camera work and audio in this video, I was facing a few challenges as the interview was totally spontaneous!
Let me know if you enjoy this style of video.

Hello Katrina, thank you for sharing your interesting day at Wollaton! I like this style of video and what a beautiful day of weather! You are looking your well and enthusiastic self....
Wow that fern was fantastic! What a lovely walled garden, thanks kat 👍
Isn’t it?! Such an incredible story. Their next guest speaker event is all about ferns. 😁
what a lovely video
Hello Katrina, Thank you so much for a fabulous video. Living in the US I am so grateful to you and Jessie at Plot 37 for filming at these special places that folks like me would otherwise never see. It really is a special treat to see the plants, gardens and the people working and volunteering there. Your love of the garden and the plants that live there is very infectious. I did rather enjoy the conversation with Erica and the family history and the fern. I do hope you will keep doing more of these from time to time as you are able. Peace and blessings until next time.
I’m in the US also and all I want to do is go there and visit allotment gardens and all the rest.
Thank you Katrina
Thanks for the tour! Bright Fall and Full Moon Blessings! 💛🌻💛🌻💛
Beautiful video! Nice overview of the garden, Erica’s description of the society and the personal connection of her gardening linage🤗
This channel is a joy. 🙂
Thanks for being a part of it ❤
Isn’t it . I am just not a gardener at all , but I watch her videos & always come away with a smile . I have learnt a few things like growing potatoes in a pot.

Hi Katrina, Mike and I just got back from a trip to the Cotswolds and it was amazing! What a wonderful week and a break from the Texas heat. Blessings, Rochelle
You closed my Sunday!!!!!! So🙂 great..

Good work my friend🙂
So glad there's one garden who fully labels everything there's nothing more annoying when you don't know a plant and want to add to the acquisition list so well done to them 😀
I really enjoy your videos and I wish flowers and gardening it's so peaceful
Hi Katrina, Fascinating chat with the lady you sat next too. Matthew
Well darling, it's good ur gave time with lady at midway good spirit
thank you that was so much fun. 💝🇨🇦
This was wonderful, yes you should join them, the cost is crazy reasonable. And what an usual fern, how cool that it's named for her Great Grandfather, love that. Look forward to watching your new plants grow.
Gorgeous fern and a wonderful place 💕
Wonderful video. Very interesting 👍🏻🌹👍🏻
Ahh, wollaton great place to spend the day,, if you've not been try and get over to Hardwick in the summer months,,👍
A wonderful place ✨️
Another brilliant video Katrina.....I live in the West Midlands so Wollaton Hall is on mine list of places to visit....
I have a penstemon with a dark red stem and foliage called Husker Red which is easy to get hold of. It has pretty white/palest pink flowers
I always enjoy these tour videos as a change of pace.
That was a joy! Thank you so much! 💕
Everything is beautiful, I love English gardens .
And love listening the real English 😊
Loved that Scottish fern, 'Murray Thomson', and the story behind it. Nice touch to do an interview with a 'hands on' gardener. Next thing could be a Katrina's Allotment Question Time on ZOOM - perhaps when you hit the landmark 100,000 subscribers! By the way, traditionally walled kitchen gardens were placed about 100 yards/metres away from the big house - and probably downwind as the smell of compost heaps and manure would not be welcome.
Loved your visit to walkathon hall. My sister has the yellow clematis climbing wildly through her garden in the trees it’s sooo beautiful. Loved your visit and you make a great presenter/ interviewer.
I love ferns and Erica’s was fantastic. Thank you for the tour.
Really enjoyable, thank you x
PS: That English love of gardening totally shines through from your interest and that of the HPS lady. Of course hardy in South Australia means something v different from your area
Hello! Amazing walk through the botanical garden! I love spending time in such wonderful places. Fern is extraordinary! Thank you for a great video. Happiness to you👍🌻💙
Really interesting to hear 👍🏼
A great walk round, lovely plants and well put together 😃
Well thanks for taking us out today most enjoyable, great content as always many thanks.
Loved the tour and the interview with Erica! That clematis reminds me of 'Bill MacKenzie", its lovely.
Lovely tur of the garden and interview.
Hi Katrina. Thank you for your video. The plant you didn't know is known as the Obedient plant as apparently you can position it and it stays put. Funnily enough my friends split theirs and i just planted it on my allotment a few days ago. Bees love it 😍🐝
Yes, that is correct and it is also very long lasting in a vase. The green leaved one stood up well to the heat this year however our variegated one was not happy at all. We are sure it will be fine next year though.
Loved this one, what an interesting interview and a beautiful garden!
Thank You so much for sharing.
Super organised shed ❤
Very nice
I’ve always wanted to go
Shalom Catrina
You don't know how lucky you are living in England with all it's wonderful national trust properties and the privately owned house and estates that offer public access. Here in Ireland, those spaces are either kept fully private with no public access or have been left to the state, public yes, but not managed and left to die back into the landscape. We could learn a lot from the UK approach to heritage.. love the channel btw!
You're a real Monte Don! 🙃
Top day out... must do it again..
I love to watch you 😍
3rd yay!
Not a patch on being on the allotment with you! Meant as a compliment!
hi can I grow dahlias from seed I'm new to growing flowers love your videos steve
Hi ms pretty....😊
Hey what's up we haven't seen you for sometimes. Is everything okay there?
I’m good thanks, I’ve been under the weather for much of October but a new video will be up later today 🙂
@@homegrowngarden can't wait to see your new video. 😍
Where are you gone Katrina
‘Plant people’ 😂
It's too bad Nottingham is way over there. I would volunteer my services as a retired graphic artist to upscale their outdoor signage.
New signs are on their way! We saw how bad it looked in the video and immediately took it down.

Miss your rubberboots wear your boots
What a lovely gardenxx
