Episode 15

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 out 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.
