There is a fabulous planting combination here of a  tree  called  Cercidophyllum  japonicum under planted with Kniphofia (Red hot pokers). Cercidophyllum japonicum is a favourite with our presenters and was talked about endlessly at the  Rothesay Roadshow on Bute. In the autumn when the first frosts hit it starts to smell of candy floss or strawberry jam. The Corylopsis (above)  which  George  gave  a hard prune last year was also starting to show some  leaf  colour  as  was Bergenia  cordifolia or ‘elephant’s ears’ (below).     

Jamie Oliver at Home ep.9

Mushrooms Jamie is off in search of mushrooms to cook the perfect mushroom risotto. There are no mushrooms in Jamie's garden, so he sets off hunting in his local forest. The chef goes back to his roots, literally. From his Essex kitchen and garden, Jamie Oliver shows how easy it is to grow fantastic fruit and veg, and turn them into simple, delicious food. Jamie Oliver at Home ep.9 Jamie must forage locally when his mushroom crop at home isn't bumper, and some of the specimens he brings home are strange indeed, but he puts them to good use in earthy fare such as stroganoff and risotto. Dishes: • Ultimate Mushroom Bruschetta • Venison & Wild Mushroom Stroganoff – Chicken of the Woods Mushroom • Grilled Mushroom Risotto

Carol Klein and Joe Swift make a visit to GW Live in Birmingham to revel in the hundreds of summer flowering plants on display and to find design tips for small gardens. Gardening and Horticulture ep.13 2016 Biennials A biennial takes two years to complete its life cycle. In its first year, it grows and stores energy so that it can flower and set seed in its second. Many are easy to raise from seed – the problem is remembering to sow them in June!
