Episode 9

In this episode, the focus is on scent and colour. Calum is at Beechgrove creating a gardening favourite: a lavender border. He lines either side of one of the garden’s paths with lavender plants, which will bring colour, scent and many pollinators to the area. Meanwhile, Brian demonstrates a layering technique as a way of propagating new plants from existing stock. There is a visit to a community garden in Fife, more instruction from Irene Berry in her Japanese-style garden in the Borders, plus all the usual handy hints.
