Episode 23

Overview

It’s the first episode of September and, as we head into autumn, it’s time to check in on some of the successes at Beechgrove Garden this season. Lizzie Schofield and Ruth Vichos lift the garden’s carrot crop and, after weeks of growing, find out if it’s a bumper harvest or if the dreaded carrot fly has done any damage. Lizzie’s big project this summer has been to rejuvenate Beechgrove’s herb garden, so she will be back amongst the sage and thyme to make sure all her new planting has settled in. Meanwhile, Ruth explains that, even though summer is almost over, you can still have lots of interest on your doorstep with containers planted for autumn colour.
