A pleasure to find a really informative, very well presented gardening video, which is British, not American! Keep up the good work, I look forward to watching more.

I cut my down to the ground and worried they won’t grow up!

Finally, a video that explains how to prune the taller, more woody type, just what I was looking for and as yet not found in any other videos. Thanks!

Fantastic! I'm not much of a gardener and always worried that I'd kill the poor plant by pruning too much. Much appreciated!!
