Rose Pruning, Training and more...
Today, we’re talking about one of the true classics of the British garden: Roses.Whether you’ve inherited an unruly old climber, you’re eyeing up a romantic rambling rose for an archway, or you just want a reliable shrub rose that flowers its socks off, this episode is for you.We’ll cover climbing, rambling and shrub roses, plus the practical stuff people actually worry about: planting, pruning, feeding, mulching, training, and reviving tired roses.If you’ve ever felt roses are fussy or intimidating, I promise they’re much tougher—and more forgiving—than their reputation suggests.

Lavender - Growing and Pruning in the UK
Today’s plant is a British garden icon: Lavender. It’s timeless, it smells incredible, pollinators absolutely love it, and once it’s settled in, it can be one of the easiest shrubs you’ll grow. But if you get a few key things wrong, lavender has a habit of turning woody, leggy, and frankly miserable. So in this episode, I’m going to take you through lavender from start to finish: a bit of background, the types that actually work in the UK, the conditions it needs, how to plant it, how to prune it without fear, what tends to go wrong, and what to do with lavender once it’s thriving.
