Seedy Saturday - Garden 'Porn'

When the temperatures are in the 90's and the humidity matches, being outside is not a fun activity.  Also, when I am working 35-40 hours a week, it's really hard to spend time outside.

So I rely on my 'Garden Porn' and my love-affair-from-afar with Monty Don of Gardener's World


Weekly, Monty Don tells me how to plan, plant, and propagate, all set in beautiful gardens, overflowing with bright flowers and lush green plants.

Problem is, I now have a long list of plants I never knew I wanted to grow and will need a huge garden to grow everything. Equally unfortunate, he also shows how to grow in small spaces too.

I daydream of espaliering fruit trees and raising dahlias. And I NEED a greenhouse for overwintering plants.

I also wonder why we, here in the United States, don't have a dedicated gardening show, full of practical advise and 'what to do over the weekend'. 

So, until the weather cools off and I feel like getting outside to do more than water and mow, I rely on Monty Don to keep me entertained. 


Note: I have a BritBox subscription, so I watch the new episodes there every week. But you can also watch past episodes via YouTube.
