The next What's hot and what's not - you decide! 4:34pm on 25 May 2009 Hello,
I have been following the blogs. A lot of talk is ongoing about the new show and what people think has been going downhill. What I worry about is the change on the website. These days, you are directed to the home website of gardenersworld on BBC.com but the only thing (seems to me) you can do there is rewatch the last show. And then I get this nice message that I am out of the area and, sorry, no luck for me. I am looking for the wonderful thing called "plants featured on the show". This always saved me from scribbling like a maniac whil trying to catch whatever Carol, Tony or Alys are saying. But now, I will have to revert back to good old pen and paper, two sets of eares and eyes to catch everything from the show. Maybe this feature is still there, but it is certainly well hidden. Please help? One last comment : GW team, keep going, don't get trampled down by all the bad comments, keep your vision. In my country, the only gardening programme we have, looks more like a ten minute advertisement for weed-killer, slug-pellets, liquid feeder or some other sponsored stuff. So I am there every Friday, watching the team and getting inspiration.
New shoots and seed sowing 10:42am on 04 May 2009 Hi Saima. I don't know how long you have been on the team for GW but I am looking for some information about a topic featured last season or the one before. In one of the programmes there was a shed/observers hide-out in a wood or nature parc. They showed how the sides were covered in logs and the roof was converted to a green roof. I covered the walls of my chickenshed also using logs +- 15 to 20 cm long. two walls are ok but the other two keep collapsing. Logs keep falling out. Now I would like to find out if they did anything special to keep the logs in place. I have tried several things so far but nothing seems to work permanently. I don't want to use any sort of cement or such. I get a lot of positive comments about the shed but nobody knows I need to get the ladder out every month to rebuild the walls. Can you help?
Spring cleaning 07:49am on 07 Mar 2009 Everybody on the team seems to be full of new plans for spring. I just read from Toby's blog that GW is moving to a new garden. Alys, are you moving too?
