Of got 3. Space for getting 3 eggs a day but no there are some issues with brood in this Yeah they kind of let you down but it does when you get eggs fresh from the garden it's such a difference with baking particular cases it is one of Martin's favorite is while the asparagus is coming he likes to have a boiled egg on a piece of asparagus just didn't get into it like a soldier to buy with the fruit because Martha gets a lot of apples and we didn't bake of the day well you don't bake it the day a couple of years ago a particular apple pie was my toffee apple pie again it's another really easy one you can just do an ordinary apple pie but the secret ingredient is to put some toffee in it so just break up some toffee treacle tof is really nice break that separates in amongst the apples and then when the when the price cooking. Then the Tuffy just melts into the apples and you get off the sauce in science and this is one of the ones in the book Yes Ok recipes are there in the book because I mean with all the ideas as well easy cook I guess then you'd be a lot this probably over 100 with all the quick tips and all of it the little easy cooks as well as the big recipes say I have a 100 yes it is a nice reading that way is also another good reference as well and yeah while we're here can we have a pos around me because we can Yeah so is there anything new or is it just carrying on and getting more we will wait we always go through the borders and you know if something's not doing very well then I'm a great believer that don't struggle with it get rid of it and put something else in so we've planted since you last came some new bits of shrubs and more perennials and I've just got a few more to do to fill gaps but basically these are the beds at the bottom of the garden that we put put in 3 years ago where it was all on and we put some big beds in this is in front of us got a big circular bed here that's 10 yards across there is quite big bad and we've got some birch trees in there the lovely white stem birch trees to the back of it to make a little cops and then we've created a little windy path a bar with some woven will out with a seat at the ends it makes a nice little secret and then it's got lots of greenery said is this very gated hostas we've got in some shrubs to give a bit of height lots of hellebore some grasses and sedges and then there's an air of dogwoods which have been pruned down and I'll be growing back in the summer so the idea is to create a last show to glade in the garden and it's only just 3 years old so it's doing really really well it was planted April 24th team so that is yeah just over 3 years old and it's starting to establish and look good now it's a really good example of you don't need flowers to have color in the garden now I mean there are flowers in it but it's not it is predominantly phone age I'm in this because it's all spring bulbs in the you know this cope with say which is a lovely summer flower and one here we've got winter flowering honeysuckle there's the hellebores but it's not a flower. Border is such is not full of her bases it's mainly shrubs and bases and grasses to give lots of colors I mean there are you can the different shades of green in there without lots of flowers it's just sent to jail and you just want to do we. Get in a way or is this bottom a mile off County Oh and I'm not not that's not staying there that's coming out and as we walk down the trees or through the road you'll look at is that down the line a day to me to drive away and feed on that I know I'm this is the problem is it be your lawn is actually looking much better than that now as it's really quite lost you watering it watered it well though it's dry the soil the lawn seems to keep the green because it's cut regularly which is the secret with any lawn more often you cut it and not to we don't scalp it so it's you know it's not too short and that keeps the green but if we don't get rain soon it will start to lose its green lush a fact. Now everything is looking absolutely gorgeous and it's really nice for me to come at this time of year because I'm normally here in the summer a little bit later on fit for the day for the National Guard are you looking forward to are you prepared for it the 23rd of July or if they said yes and then the 23rd so yes where we're getting ready I've got my team of volunteers ready they've all got the date in the diary with that nothing else and yet we're getting ready they did it twice before you kind of you have a finely honed system of. Say finally having but it's the 2nd time was easier than the 1st and I'm hoping the 3rd will be easier than the 2nd because we've got people in place now and we know what to expect hopefully how many people are coming to how to cater for them and get them in and out the garden and parking so yeah I know it's not as worried as it was this time 3 years ago 2 years ago but we'll be here of course Yeah no you know I tell myself we served you a bed. Thank you very much and if people want to get a hold of gardening on the menu they can get hold of it locally they can is available in a couple of bookshops at the moment so it's the white rose bookshop in Thirsk It's the little written bookshop stock in it it's going to be in the hollow bookshop and it's also available on our website Well it was a fabulous day in the summer I have got a nice time if you came along it was really nice to meet so many people especially people who do name that plan they were all saying you know you always be made it was really nice to get everyone together so Martin and Jules garden Thorneycroft in right an atheist is going to be open again for the National Garden Scheme and we will be there this is the date for your diary Sunday the 22nd of July he's going to be a sunny day it always is probably see in the diary Ok Sunday the 22nd of July and we'll be a thorn in Croft in my internet this can have a lovely time and a lovely piece of cake to b.b.c.

Ways wonderful over fruit and vege coming to a climax. Is my guide. Ending in the beautiful beautiful pen and look at your crops Moscow I'll pass on this year more than last year apples a good as well so let's look into the good if a fruit this one has Pip must and duchess in it was a sugar I see huge cooking for us to watch it for when you had any Welcome to the oh yeah good completely and so let's have a one down because it mean I did about you but in my garden everything is really thrived in it and one main is about some of the I don't know he's been seems to have been really good to sleep in breakfast pretty good growing here the weather's been a bit stop start of a really nice warm spring but that it dry spell and lots of rain in July August so it's the veggies didn't well despite the weather been a bit changeable but I think the weather's been quite good for growing stuff it's just been a bit all or nothing droughts or lots of rain and you know in between times I've been struggling if it was some crops of straw to go in that was all the things that caught up with it now thanks to the pumpkins of cold pig who will get on the corn and see the enormous From can oh you've been doing through yeah didn't want us and lastly this is you further on in the world this time last year so well it was 7 or 8 prices a little miniature capital of what it meant to be small and medium size some folks and Jack allowance and other woman here on the corner see the enormous amounts of giants Oh look at your love and this is the I mean we talked about this before we called it before still flowered but it looks stunning in the smell you can smell it before. The colors are just faded now but you go through different shades or you got the dark purple Imperial National Forest which is softly with unfold it's just it's all over which is made blue so there's nice story nice color contrast if you want to know all of interest is loving to call it it could be the ship it's impaled blue white and dark purple So when do you chop them usually when the cause if it is to some some September services of these are finished on it and that causes a fade in which the flower heads off and then the string would put the whole of the Bush back in March air for when the weather's won't have it trying to push out otherwise they get smaller and smaller and leg and. Plums like the plunge into the back in the spring now do you go at it with a hedge trimmer or you that was 2nd both used to do it should have been probably not. You got a 2nd Aborigine concludes to low some of them so we do the 2nd says with 3 or 4 of his work in the rows and so it's not such a daunting task so we pick it up as we go along it was 2nd says he can see we could see him there with the head should be equal to 2nd guess he could Sue Lowden some others so it was 2nd says much more accurate but it's slow it's Exodus who. You know kid now Markel whiles What's your secret like giant public shaming. Well this is one part of this enormous area covered about sort of 4 or 5 square meters at least it's the 2 fruits on I had 6 on back in July took far off left so on so it's too scared to leave it on Swan In case it gets it rusted so it left so what I'll do said one of them off the small of them which is still quite big but probably 6070 pounds on its own or dimension What's that one often maybe $23.00 weeks time then off into the month so it's a little circle still keep growing in the months for all Indians who want the flowers off and any fruit farming Sekoff somehow to stop the foliage as well in places with liquid feed in them with seaweed extracts that what only once a week once every 2 weeks and that's enough sick to give it a boost now God has said notoriously competitive and there's a big trial going on with the r.h.s. And with Lee and Holly caught having a trial trying to grow a pumpkin I was a holy car last week and the pumpkin the alleged giant pumpkin is the size Well they called it a great For it is more of a small up almost here so this is incredible you just don't know how big this is here this for sale and John is the record holder record holder in America it's it gets you know well over a 1000 pounds quite regularly on the west side America and have a longer growing season I'll probably Britain to the north of England what he got from there to what server and what's over that will grow much so you could get him started early in the greenhouse get him out soon as the weather warms up lots of liquid feed lots of organic must have a 400 to the soil and says stop the fruits of your big fruit still the farm lots of on one plant and she's commonsense really like well off fruit she has to thin them when you get a home will live as long as we kind of whatever the weather is what warming up so believe it will still grow as soon as the weather cools we get some frost will bring into the greenhouse or less leaves lots of a half term to come in we could have before that the word sounds cold because when it's a grows long as it long as possible. It's probably going to taste very good but it looks wonderful early days to be wishy washy yeah that the depression. It's low water basically you've got to put your seeds in the middle big big and then quite thick lush other very well very tasty the best ones are the medium sized squashes and which gets sort of 56 lb that I split usually and some of the medium sized ones that's all fortress orange it's about 1015 pound that can be quite nice as well so that's the good of the 2 the one thing is still you know it's still the size of the hood human isn't. Going to because you know in a couple weeks for in such a joy it's to ripen and these you see the slow growing they're starting to go orange is on the north facing side at least some folks want to go bright orange at the classic round orange pumpkins but just to get the color now but then to get the sun in the front of the boat so the ones in the back a bit longer to write it down we will head back to bed and behold and continue to enjoy winter in the garden with Ma
