Absolutely stunning garden!! So many great ideas! I love the white garden for the moths. Thank you for showing us all the other gardens, too! So many creative souls who share their love of gardening and design. What a beautiful experience.

Aw, thank you so much ⭐️ 🙂 😀. We appreciate your kind words. Glad that you are getting lots of ideas from the video. Having a white garden within our own garden is something that I would love. The gardens at RHS Tatton were amazing. Each one with its own character. People coming together to create something beautiful from nothing. As you say, creative souls ✨️ its truly amazing. We loved every second and are so happy to share it with you 😀🙂

Oh, I loved this video! What a gorgeous garden, thanks for taking us on a tour of the other gardens too, although I definitely loved Sharon's the best. You worked so hard in challenging conditions (wet). I bet you're still recovering? Is it sad breaking the garden down? Andrew - you are so good at talking to the camera! As always, take care guys.

Thank you so much for your very kind comments 😊 😀. We very much appreciate them. It's such a gorgeous garden and so amazing as you say to have experienced the others too. It was difficult with the rain 🌧 but we loved the experience and the sun did come out on occasions 😀😁. Still feeling sore, both of us, but with each day we will get better. It was hard work, but the best things in life always are 😀. It is sad breaking it down. I find it quite a strange thing, breaking down sonething so beautiful that all the insects are beginning to appreciate and love. Paul feels this way, too. I think probably the majority of people do, but it has to be done. Aw, thank you for your kind words 😊. I studied television production and realised I'm better in front of the camera than behind it. Thanks again for your kindness from us 🙏 😀🙂

Hi Andrew and Paul, I've been so looking forward to seeing this and it didn't disappoint. Love, love, love the perennial border and look at all the bees on the Monarda. The wild flower section was stunning too. It's amazing how quickly the pollinators come isn't it? Hope it's not a stupid question but do you plant according to Sharon's plan or do you plant what and where you think is best? I've never known anyone that's done a show garden. Thanks for showing us other gardens too. I really liked The Miniature Cottage Garden. I'd have awarded your garden best in show as the design and planting were both stunning. I expect that you're now trying to get caught up in your own garden between all of this rain and no doubt you'll have seen a lot of changes in it whilst you've been busy at Tatton. Thanks for a great video. Take care. xxx

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video Wendy. The perennial border was my favourite part too with the mix of colours and also those lovely gabions filled with material for wildlife. Not all of the plants that were ordered came in flower and had to be returned so a lot of adjustments had to be made, particularly with the white garden. There's a lot of putting the plants together by eye and getting them where they look the best. It's also really strange planting plants in their pots but it's easier when it come to dismantling. The pollinators definitely enjoyed the plants and were happy right from the start. We've never seen so many moths during the day too. We worked every day for 11 days straight through so our own garden was looking a bit neglected, but we've been out the past few days getting it sorted for more filming coming soon. Glad to have a warm sunny day today after so much rain. Have a good weekend. Take care xxxx
