The team give tips on feeding your plants to get best growth, introduce some new plant varieties and give tips on growing veggies, amazing gardens and stunning plants.
Hi Darren, Yes, a pity that the Beeb closed its message boards, but this forum is just as good. Loads of really nice, helpful people here .
No such drastic action from me with regards to cancelling TV licences though , because I live in The Netherlands, so no British TV licence. We get BBC One and Two on the cable here.
On this week's show we check out a patio makeover, we look at Mother's day vegetable containers, we learn about a tomato plant grafted to a potato plant, we visit the rhododendron and peony festivals. We see a grape that fits on your patio, learn about moles, voles and gophers, get some hanging basket tips, we make a planter out of pavers, learn how to keep cats out of a raised bed and taste a liqueur made from Iris roots.
They seem to upload the programmes on YouTube before they update their site .
On this week’s episode of Mid-American Gardener host Dianne Noland and panelists Jim Angel, Jennifer Fishburn, and John Bodensteiner answer your emails and phone calls. They cover topics ranging from how to tell the difference between dew and rain in your rain gauge to adding calcium to your tomatoes with eggshells.

A thriving community destroyed on a whim.
I immediately cancelled my TV licence and unplugged the aerial.
Been lurking ever since and signed up last week.

The other one comes from the local TV station in Berlin.
This is a special about all sorts of gardens, mainly community gardens and allotments, in Berlin.
Could be fun to watch.

Hello Kleipieper, I'm new to gardening so have been trying to take in as much as possible from where ever I can find it!
My latest favorite is how to be a gardener with Alan Titchmarsh, found it on YouTube and its so helpful for me!
I'm afraid I'm also a newbie at this blog board thing so haven't yet tried adding links!
