  • Great British Garden Revival Inspiration

    I've watched nearly all of this series now. And have, pretty much been inspired by every one!
    I now want to make a rockery near my front door (I did anyway but Carol Kleins programme has re-inspired me)
    I now want to try one small topiary spiral tree (I didn't but Rachel De Thame has me wondering if I could)
    I now want to do better with my pretty-rubbish - but still new herb bed (Thanks to Toby Buckland's programme)
    I now want to re-do my front garden (It is a work in progress but Joe Swift's programme has nudged me on a bit)
    There are a few more of this series to go, I wonder what else I will realise I need to do?!
    I've already planted 6 trees - so the tree programme - I am way ahead of you.
    One programme is about veg - I'm all over that!
    Flowers for cutting programme - Yep I'm on it!
    As this is in the herb section of the forum, I must get round to my long -winded question - has anyone any recommendations of a book they have for medicinal uses for herbs? Not culinary really, though culinary would be good too!

    You may say I'm a dreamer... But I'm not the only one...


    I'm an official nutter - an official 'cropper' of a nutter! I am sooooo pleased to be a cropper! Hurrah!

    I haven't watched this series yet , I would recommend James Wong he wrote a book about growing your own drugs all herbs etc used for medicinal purposes . I've just ordered it of amazon.

      Got Mr Wong (winging it's way from Amazon) but I just wondered if anyone had one, that they trusted and could recommend

          Watched a couple yesterday, had a lazy settee day.
          Not been inspired by tropical plants (no room) - sorry Mr Wong
          Nor a Stumpery - (too spooky) sorry Mr Beardshaw
          Already got a pond - Charlie Dimock always been inspiring
          Have no grass - no intention of getting any either
          Have two programmes left to go...
