Beechgrove Garden (1970) : 44x6

It’s all about the hanging baskets of Beechgrove this week from the garden in Aberdeenshire as Carole Baxter sets up these fantastic garden features for a summer of colour. Carole will also have expert advice on how to get the best crop from this year’s tomato plants, including a look at the possibility of ripening tomatoes outside in a Scottish garden. The team are also busy on their own allotments: in Sunny Joppa George is planting more vegetables and Calum is planning his planting, while Kirsty is planting to hide a new fence. It’s also time to catch up on this year’s Beechgrowers, gardeners from Orkney to Dumfries, growing in poly tunnels, small gardens and allotments and this week we hear more of their plans for the summer to come.
