George Anderson and Calum Clunie are back together to tackle the week’s jobs at Beechgrove Garden. Although George got a special picking of potatoes for his birthday in June, this is the time to lift the first crop from the vegetable plot and try out this year’s produce. Calum and George check on the brassicas that were planted in the club root-infected bed, testing varieties that are said to be resistant to the infection. George is back to work on the privet hedge that was given a severe pruning last year to encourage thicker growth, Calum gets round to placing plants known for their fragrance in his competition bed, and there are the week’s handy hints.

The weather in this year’s growing season is making gardening a real challenge at Beechgrove, with cold grey skies and periods of high temperature giving Ruth Vichos and Brian Cunningham plenty to deal with. Ruth is in her vertical garden, where she has strawberries, blossoms and various climbing varieties all demonstrating what you can produce if you are short of space, using stacking systems and plants that will follow vertical surfaces. Brian reviews the wildflower beds he sowed in April, which will become a great resource for pollinators and the rest of the garden’s ecosystem. Brian and Ruth look at the diseases and pests that might be attacking your garden favourites right now and what to do about them. There is a visit to a great garden in East Lothian, and all the week’s handy hints.
