Gardeners' World - Season 56 - Episode 20
Frances Tophill is in her very first garden for a summer catch-up and an update on her progress since moving in. She’s excited to share a brand new structure designed especially for her compact plot, and there’s trouble afoot at her allotment when she visits for a tidy-up. Adam Frost meets a kindred spirit who explains how gardening saved his life. In the Cotswolds, Advolly Richmond showcases one of the finest examples of gardening in the arts and crafts era. There's a visit to Mr Pelargonium (not his real name!), an oracle on this colourful and versatile plant, and to a man who has revolutionised his back garden with a perennial meadow. Plus more of the films that have been sent in by viewers.
