- A Covid interrupted month this time. Just a look at some plants, some seed ideas for the future, a dead fish and another look at propagating delphinium crown buds in a simple home situation rather than on a nursery....and a bit on turning. I may do a video on making a bowl some time over winter but its not really gardening.....maybe when there's not much else going on.
I'd like to wish all my regular viewers good health and vitality...especially the old buggers of which i think there are quite a few....its like a little virtual family now after nearly 13 years! I have also noted one or two ideas of things to propagate and sow etc......we will start in spring.....a little sowalong!
Very best wishes.....Malcolm
Credit where it's due. I used your delphinium dividing method on 5 very expensive delphiniums from the garden centre, which I got at a VERY reduced price due to it being winter. I got about 35 delphiniums from the crown buds. I potted these up, then after 2 months in my naturally lit, sheltered garage, they had made their own crown buds, so I split them again and within 4 months I had over 100 delphiniums. They ALL flowered this year! Genius! Thank you!
I have learned so much from watching your videos Malcolm. Thank you for all the knowledge!!! I shall put it to good use and take over the world...
Nice to have you back again Malcolm. Nice to see someone else growing gillenias
"Fu-u-lippin' great trees", nice save!! I love your garden, so many unusual plant varieties. I'd like to say I collect plants, but actually I hoard plants. 🤣
Headless rabbits are best when primary school kids walking to school. You are trying to block the gory carcass whilst the dog is proudly showing it to the world. Another fabulous video thanks.
Malcolm it is so delightful to have back. And your tours are a real treat!
I so enjoy and learn so much from your masterclasses! please keep them going!.🙂🌺
Loved this video Malcolm! Sooo much going on! Gardening, propagating delphiniums [so many from so few!👍👏] then all the wonderful creative stuff you make, bowls, pens, coffee grinders etc..amazing! As someone has said, it would be a good mail order business for people who cannot get to Egglestone in person. Though the posting and packing can be a ball ache, but your possible market audience would be huge! Brilliant video, hope you enjoy making them as much as we enjoy watching them. Thank you Malcolm.
Love the wood turning Malcolm. Quite a talent. You will never get bored will you?
Most enjoyable video……
Another lovely, lovely, video by Issac Hunt. Keep up the good work Sir, cheers!
Absolutely love, your videos, you have opened my eyes to rare ,and not easily to obtain plants,your garden is maturing well,all the best
Sir, your delphiniums are beautiful. Thanks for your videos.
The wood turning things are beautiful!
Thanks for all the information on propagation!
It's all starting to fill out now and everything's settling in and worth all that digging and trenching.... I envy you the pond.. mine's a tiddler in s london..but boasts 8 newts and a screaming frog, not headless, quite. Love the bark and the maples but the bowls were a revelation... you could do a nice mail order line for your subscribers...
very talented and patient Malcolm, just wondered if you are still doing your ship?
Lovely Malcolm 😘
Thank you!
Hope you feel better soon, Thanks for the video, your garden looks amazing as usual, really a beautiful collection of plants growing so well. How you get such growth is beyond me but anyway, stunning garden
Your very creative 👌
Thank you so much for the propagation masterclass. Also so many unusual plants as you whizz round your garden. Your woodturning is lovely. Do you have a website? Oh god the headless rabbit! What next?
I'm guessing your noid acer is acer cappadocicum aureum, I planted one in my garden and it looks very similar. I would be interested in seeing how to grow azaleas from seed if your willing.
Malcolm when you trim back that Holly can you show it
Great stuff as always Malcolm. What’s the plant at 10:00 with the big leaves and white flower beside the sweet peas? Regards Guy
Hi Malcolm so I’ve a question, a while back you said that giving your girl a bouquet of sweet peas was the quickest way to get her knickers off, well I’ve patiently grown a nice wigwam of sweet peas and I cut a nice little bunch and presented them nicely got all spruced up and everything. All I got was I nice little smile. Ok me thinks too small so a few days later it’s also bath night so out I goes picked a large bunch and popped them in the bathroom as a nice surprise. So slid into bed had a quick feel around and nope the dam padlock was still firmly locked. So I must have grown the wrong varieties so have you any suggestions? Kinda desperate
.. cracking vid b y the way
I was going to say you were being a bit naughty Harvey but I suppose in your case chance would be a fine thing😀
I'm gonna guess your maple is Acer pictum 'aureum' ....?? If there is an 'aureum' ...it looks more bright yellow than my straight species pictum....just a guess....m
