Beechgrove Garden (1970) : 46x15

It's the taste of summer, so Beechgrove Garden’s own strawberry crop gets some attention - and maybe some picking - from George Anderson and Carole Baxter. The pair also work in the Garden for Wildlife, a plot specifically designed and planted with species that are beneficial to the local ecosystem, with George boosting the garden’s collection of meconopsis. Carole picks some of the fantastic salad crops that have been growing in her collection of quirky containers - proof that you don’t need a lot of space to grow some of your own vegetables - and reveals the top cropping plant of the year so far.
