Monty replants his bearded iris in the Dry Garden, clears the greenhouse ready for winter salad crops and harvests quince. As part of his big Cottage Garden revamp, he transplants a shrub to the orchard and shows how to save money by collecting and storing seed from plants around the garden. Arit Anderson explores some of the arguments, both for and against, artificial grass. Toby Buckland discovers a rich and tranquil Japanese-themed garden deep in the beautiful Welsh countryside. There's a look at the garden of Andrew Clifton, who repurposes and recycles a whole variety of materials to create a beautiful ‘secret garden’ in Nottingham. Plus gardeners Steve Edney and Louise Dowle, who have created a whole border of plants whose structure and forms not only create a striking winter scene but from which they harvest new seed every year. And there are more viewers' films.
