Oh dear, Monty's veg garden was a disaster zone on last night's programme! All that effort and the carrot 'crop' was a handful of rotten veg.

all gardeners will know how he feels in 2012. the main thing is he rolled up his purple sleeves and done it all again as I did today.

I loved last night's GW, especially as Carol did a feature on my favourite garden plant, the geranium/cranesbill. I wish they could have an hour for the programme, it's over so quickly.

I thought last Friday's Gardeners' World was refreshing. Monty's carrots were hopeless (just like mine) and his potatoes fell apart when he boiled them and didn't taste of much (just like mine). The Army garden wasn't spectacular either - a lot of green but not many flowers yet. After a pretty depressing growing season, it felt like a trouble shared...

I'm with you on that, especially since Monty has perfect soil! (I'm sure that they must drop a barrowload in front of him!) Made me feel less of a failure....;):D

Have I just missed the s*dding programme because it isn't on HD this week, just normal beeb2 because of the limpids or some such nonsense?

sorry if I'm doing this wrong, I'm an avid reader but a real newb to posting (if that's what i'm doing), but does anyone have any ideas about what I can plant under a laurel hedge where it gets no sun, even weeds won't grow, would love some colour, although I appreciate it will be foliage or moss rather than flowers, I'm trying hard to make a nice garden, with help from family in the form of donations I'm getting there with the rest of it just the edge of the lawn meeting with the hedge looks really dark, ugly and messy, any ideas would be really appreciated.
