Filmed workshops:

Wild at Dixter….. New Brownfield Sites….. Listening to the Land….. The legacy of John Brookes….. Exciting low maintenance perennial mixes… Grasses

Our first recording of a live workshop was a wonderful talk by Fergus Garrett on biodiversity in the Great Dixter garden, followed by the Masterclass group going around the garden with entomologist Andy Phillips. Our second recording is about a radical approach to creating biodiversity at a whole range of scales recorded on a sunny day in Essex with the inspiring and informative John Little. We also have the inimitable James Hitchmough on low maintenance perennial mixes, Marian Boswall talking us through a garden she has made in Kent and a round-table to discuss the legacy of the late John Brookes. Our latest is Neil Lucas, sharing his incredible knowledge of ornamental grasses on a beautiful early autumn day at the Welsh National Botanic Garden.

For members we have a 30% discount on the rental price, for the usual 30 day viewing period, with discount code Mem21

Planted ! The Gardening Soap Opera

And now for members only, a gift! Some ten years ago, Noel started writing a soap opera for gardeners, a comedy of manners and gardening rivalry that explores some of the dominant themes of English garden culture. The technology wasn't quite right for the time, but now he is re-launching it, as a podcast series for members, read by his wife, Jo Eliot.

Planted! – a Story of English Garden Folk - the Soap Opera for Gardeners Meet Petunia and Wayne Martin, creators of Avalon Gardens and their neighbours Archibald and Rose Watkins-Smythe up at the historic garden of Mere Castle. Meet their respective gardeners: Bonzo the ex-heavy metal roadie and born-again Johnny Dalton, a local nurseryman or two and a cast of other colourful characters such as the village herbal healer Catkin Moonspirit and imperious garden school guru Marguerite Smithson.

You can access the podcast episodes from Noel’s website here, with password: gardensoap
