If anyone feels like working in the shop in exchange for accommodation, this is the old gardener’s cottage, recently renovated.

Are you travelling by Southern this weekend? My friend Lucie desperately needs your help. She has spent nine months hand making this beautiful quilt out of disused kimono silk for her oldest friend's brand new baby:

If folk like Monty's idea of a cut flower bed (or garden!) as mentioned on #GardenersWorld, you might want to check out the cut flower packs that Benjamin Ranyard sell. He's usually got you covered for cut flower options!

On my evening round through the garden just now, I caught this monster slug as it was starting to devour the one tiny dahlia shoot (right in front of it) that survived previous slug onslaughts. The strulch all around did not seem to make a difference #GardensHour

Da ja am Sonntag die Europa-Wahl ist und alle immer auf die EU schimpfen und glauben sie würden gegängelt oder in Ihren Freiheiten beschränkt, wollte ich nur mal kurz ein paar kleinen Punkte hervorheben: 1. In der EU herrscht seit deren Gründung Frieden. Das ist die längste

You know I love the BBC & celebrate all the things we pay our licence fee for . But yesterday whilst 100K peaceful people marched to demonstrate their love for life all I could find on BBC News (UK) was a selfie of the gas-guzzling Taylor Swift . Im sorry but thats a disgrace

I love my small wildflower meadow at the front of the house. This year there is a lot of ragwort which is starting to be decimated by pretty cinnabar moth caterpillars #GardensHour

Heute Morgen im DLF: Die #FDP plant ein Programm für kostenloses Parken von Autos in Innenstädten aus Gründen der Gerechtigkeit wegen des 49-Euro-Tickets. Es wird immer dümmer. 🤦

Von kostenlosem und Flatrate-Parken in Innenstädten bis "Formel 1 als Innovationsmotor" ist im Pro-Auto-Papier der FDP vieles drin - nur leider kaum Sachverstand. Für ein wenig Aufmerksamkeit scheint die Partei bereit zu sein, jeden Preis zu zahlen. faz.net/aktuell/wirtsc…

The world's biggest rainforest, the Amazon, has lost an area the size of Germany + France combined to deforestation in 40 years. All those cheap hamburgers aren't the bargain they seem: they're costing us our planetary home. france24.com/en/live-news/2…

Honeybees are famous for working hard, but if you watch a hive, most of them spend a lot of time just chillin out on the honeycomb. So when people tell you you gotta "be a good worker bee".... now you know the secret to their work ethic. Secure housing, affordable food, & naps.

Hi #houseplanthour, what are your best tips for getting rid of thrips? They have reached most of my (numerous) houseplants. Had a lot of them outside during the summer but they just get reinfected inside now :(
