Amazing how your garden has been becoming more and more beautiful; don't appreciate how much until you go back a couple of years. Don't get me wrong; this was gorgeous, too, but now is wow. And your greenhouse IS a Room of Requirements! It looked so much smaller in the beginning with less in it. Now you have full size plants, potting bins, and you and Kate in there swinging your respective cuppas around, and there is still room to work! Magical (I know it is ingenious use of space, but to us watching...)!

Yup, they produce much better when there are at least two different varieties growing in the same garden fairly close together. And, it can take 3 or 4 years before they reach their stride production wise. Patience. Oh, and maples in general do not object to being limbed up a few feet as they grow. In the wild the lower branches tend to die off as the tree matures and grows. In the wild they grow to around 50' but a red maple is a cultured tree. But they are not a bush! Trim your red maple up (As in not off the top! They can be shaped a bit but its not meant to be a topiary.) by taking off the lower twigs and small branches as it grows and stay on this until the tree reaches 20' or so and you will have a lovely and sturdy shade tree, that's limbed up to about 6', for the car and passers by without it poking anyone's eye out. And it won't be in anyone's way. I'm Canajun, eh, and know a few things about maples.

Thanks so much! 😊 Yeah we realised that not everyone had the same idea of our garden, some thought we had a huge plot of land in the country, some thought it was just a veg garden some thought it was tiny.... so this way we can actually show. Also though, I didn't quite get across what I wanted which was the choices and how they affect things and why... for instance our garden looks HUGE in the overhead because we have a lot of unused space (like the lawn) and smaller flowerbeds against the fence.... but if we did traditional deep flower beds it would actually look a lot smaller because the open space would be reduced. The size of a garden is very much judged on the space you use...

Loved this video, its great to see all the changes you have made over time, and encouraging us newbies, you also let us know what works and what doesn't work - which is interesting too. I think I'll borrow my daughters colouring pencils and start re-planning my garden. thanks again for making gardening fun, useful and informative, I like the idea of strawberry corner becoming a 'thoughtful corner' or named after whatever you decide to plant there. Thank you again for cheering up my Sunday although I do watch your videos more than once too.

Hi Eli. I grow orange crocosmia too. No need to collect seeds to propagate, as they are tubers. Every 2-3 years in spring, just before new growth starts, I dig the crocosmia, tubers up, split them into two or three smaller bunches and replant/ gift some. It's almost impossible to kill them. 😀

Oh very close.... they grow into corms (nit quite tubers). But yes once you have clumps of plants you can split and divide the clumps like a hell of a lot of things jn the garden.

Too damp isn't a problem for me because I've created all. my soil mixes to suit where they are and obviously our climate here in my garden. Wee note on white rot though, it's not caused by damp or even wet, it's actually a fungal infection so please be careful if you've seen it in your garden, it's very very easy to spread (just a trowel or glove that's touches that soil will do it or even very dry soil blown by the wind) and will spread to areas that are very dry.

The timber is usually what ever we have lying around just cut to the lengths needed so I don't know the specs I'm afraid. As to details if the fittings. I've got a whole video on building it 😀 search back through the raised beds videos and you'll find it. The bits came from quickcrop uk

Have you tried growing horseradish root

I'm too late for the renaming of strawberry corner, but being originally from Glasgow I would have gone for " high rise"

@eliandkate my hubby is a southsideranyway, serious question, what do you call the things that attach to lid of raised bed where the hoops slot into??? Hope I've worded that correctly so you know what I'm talking about, I have a habit of rambling.

I'm a quarter way through video and I suggest vegging out corner for your old strawberry area. And sadly I planted elephant garlic 6 weeks ago and not one shoot so far 🤨
