I really enjoyed Monty’s British gardens. So much so I couldn’t resist jumping ahead and watching the episode for my own area too. Lots of inspiring, thought provoking spaces. #Britishgardensonthetelly
I enjoyed listening to this interview with Monty Don from earlier this year on the Talking Gardens podcast where he shared, among other things, his way of looking at planting to cope with climatic changes, and thought you might enjoy it too. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

While it feels like the end of the year when the leaves come off the trees, for us gardeners its the beginning or renewal and an exciting time for planning and looking forwards - a bit like setting up new social accounts!
A handful of red-tinged orange heart-shaped leaves on almost bare branches in a garden border.
Last of the leaves clinging to the branches of Cercis canadensis ‘Forest Pansy’ this morning. One of my very favourite garden trees, in particular its heart-shaped leaves. ❤️
