Our New Vegetable Garden, Perennial Vegetables and August Cottage Garden Tour



Welcome back to our cottage garden. As promised, we have been working on the vegetable garden. While there are still a few things to do, it looks a lot better already so we thought we would give you a tour and show you some of our perennial vegetable plants. You can also take a look at what’s flowering in early August, and some other projects we are working on here. Thanks for watching!

    Great tour! I love your garden! I'm also dealing with heat waves and my garden is crying. Do you plant your blueberry bushes in your raised beds or directly in the ground? I didnt have much success with mine in ground even with soil amendments but they're starting to thrive now that I have them in pots so am thinking of transplanting them when it gets a bit cooler into raised beds (easier to fine tune their soil this way I think).

    I was so excited to see your new video on my feed! And I really enjoyed it as always. I grow a lot of hydrangeas in my garden. The ones you just added are the paniculata type of hydrangeas and they require more sun ( mine can rage full sun) than the one (macrophyllas) that you’ve already had in order to perform really well and for the blooms to change color in the late summer/ fall. Just keep that in mind😊. Can’t wait to see that area filled in with all kinds of hydrangea blooms!

    In the shady crocus lawn you can make a moon garden. It seems you have enough shade to make white and silver plants stand out.

    I love your gardens and all your little fences and walls and outbuildings. It's a charming place! I've been trying to get some spaces with more of a cottage garden feel established at my home. It's a colder climate than you, and a lot of poor soil–but I think given time it will be lovely! I've already been able to make improvements.

    Love the white tree mallows! I have some Japanese anemones and they are great! They do spread but are easy to pull up 👍

    Your garden is looking so lovely, as ever! I think the bit of shade from your plum trees is doing you a favour and helping to keep some of the water in the ground. I too have had a horrible time this year with coco coir compost. The packet was honest about there being zero nutrients in the medium, so I did water it with seaweed extract to get some food going, and it was massively fun to watch it expand from a little brick into a huge bag of compost! But oh my days what a nightmare to regulate the water in the seedling pots and trays – they were either unbelievably soggy or dry as dust and impossible to re-wet. I might use it again as an ingredient in a bespoke mix, because peat analogs that aren't peat are hard to find, but as a single ingredient compost it utterly bombed. I've had few successes this year, and I do ascribe that to the dodgy compost. Looking forward to your advice as you go forward – I'm mixing some Dalefoot soil improver in my nasty coir, and have designs on buying some Melcourt. Meanwhile like you I'll buy generic peatfree compost for my next sowings.
