Monty Don shows how to produce a medley of vegetables from a small space. Frances Tophill visits an allotment where plants are grown and harvested as ingredients for cosmetics.
It is not late to grow crops for harvesting this year and Monty shows us how to produce a medley of vegetables from a small space. He also lifts and divides irises plus adds spires of summer colour to his borders.
Carol Klein is inspired by the summer planting at Wollerton Old Hall in Shropshire, and Frances Tophill travels to the Isle of Man to visit an allotment where plants are grown and harvested as ingredients for cosmetics.
Nick Bailey is at RHS Harlow Carr, revelling in their stream-side planting, and Adam Frost is in Northamptonshire, finding out about the design and planting at Cottesbrooke Hall. And the programme meets a woman whose passion for bees is inspiring young beekeepers at a school in Huddersfield.
