Nice to see you here Gaz! You are on my watch on TH-cam too. You are an inspiration for vegan food in the same way so makes sense for us both to enjoy Adams way of making the food we like and the way we like.
"When your world is gardening, you don't need an escape, that is the escape" I love this quote, so true! I started gardening 2 years ago, but growing up my family gardened and depended on our garden for food production. I really want to get back to that, to that self sufficiency.
Exactly that’s what I keep telling my family let’s stay in the garden it is our escape and we don’t have to go spend thousands of dollars on a vacation
The information this man has should be taught to children everywhere. Even if we can't do what he's done, if we could do 10% of it, it would be such a benefit to our wallets, health, and society as a whole.
Aaaah thank you Stacy that's very kind of you and I agree if we all just did a little bit the environmental and economic impact would be absolutely huge! In Wales before long health and wellbeing will be a part of the national curriculum and gardening will be very much a part of that 😁
Thank you :) that's the ultimate compliment. I think the best thing about garden is the constant knowledge sharing with like minded people, never do we know enough as gardeners!
@@adamynyrardd It was your name Adam that prompted my comment. It was actually the first ever Adams punishment to have to cultivate the ground and make his own food for survival.. And ironically here we are praising the fact that we can take part in the (punishment) cultivation of the ground ........as we were given the task to have dominion over the planet.

Blessings to you and a great coming season for you
@@crossing3790 Absolutely wonderful 😊😍 thank you I have not once thought of it like that in terms of the first sin and punishment! Great interpretation as well 😊
His garden is incredible. I view gardening as very therapeutic. It helped me cope with the loss of my brothers. It’s very true that you don’t need an escape when you immerse yourself in gardening. I wish more people would garden, rather than doing drugs are other self-destructing activities.
Thank you for your kind words 😊 I completely agree, gardening helped me with the loss of my grandfather and best friend as well. Im glad that gardening supported you at a really difficult time in your life. I hope that we have a great growing season this year 😁
Blessed are the chatty gardeners! I really like this guy. His reverence for his family learnings and the courage to learn new techniques just makes his garden so prolific. I would love to have quail, ducks and chickens but my wife is reluctant to lop their heads off and butcher them for the table. His flag and his Instagram account show respect for his origins and this video has really inspired me to put up an Aussie flag of my own in my own garden. Well done Adam from your new mate Down Under!
This is the life, growing your own food naturally, let the animals and plants care for eachother, no forcing or disturbing the Earth by digging or using artificial products, working in the garden to feed yourself, feeding yourself to gain the energy to maintain the garden... Beautiful harmony and balance, this is the life!
I think we all need to realise how we can positively change how we impact the planet and by growing our food we can go so much further to stemming climate change and improving our world for nature :)
@@adamynyrardd you’ve done a great job especially with the high quality video and easy to digest presentation. The music and everything ties in really well. Keep up the good work!
The chicken coop is not cleaned out often, he only gets the manure compost out once a year. And the quails get pine needles as bedding. He uses that in fresh form (some people advise to wait) the blueberries love that. - the Duck quad are slug eating machines, he has a Welsh breed that is very docile. They even love to eat brassica leaves etc - but they are good ducks and meander their way through the garden in seach of slugs. They do not damage the plants.
@@adamynyrardd It was amazing to get to know your lovely garden!!! Just subscribed to your channel and I hope to see more there! Also, seldom I hear the Welsh accent and it was great practice as well! Cheers from Brazil.
What's better than a little motivation for the upcoming growing season in the middle of winter? Enjoy this fantastic raised bed garden by Adam Jones, not too far away from me geographically in fact! Go say hello to him here: instagram.com/adamynyrardd
@@adamynyrardd LOL - does TH-cam not have a translation function ;) ...maybe I should have spent that year abroad at Swansea University when I had the chance ;) Heading over to your Instagram and TH-cam channel now...
Oh my! Huw, these sharings are virtual heart medicine. Adam’s love of what he does, his accent, his beautiful beds. . . I will save this to watch again and again. Thank-you.
Like Adam, I don't apply crop rotation. And neither does Mother Nature 😉 Adam, du hast dir ein wunderschoenes kleines Paradies geschaffen! Danke, dass du uns erlaubt hast, es zu besuchen 💖
That's a really, really important point, Mother nature has never done crop rotation! I like that, I may steal that haha! Danke Andrea, das ist wirklich nett von Ihnen! Habt ein tolles Wochenende voller Gartenarbeit oder Gartenspass soll ich sagen?
Ahhhh thank you so much Lady Drone :D I have actually got a TH-cam Channel but need to improve the content on it and make more of a concerted effort to upload content :D I tend to share a lot on instagram but will certainly start posting more content on TH-cam going forward :D
I agree, agriculture is a way of life even if is done in a small scale. My dream, I have memories of my grandfather planting what he could in the backyard.
Thanks for the full garden tour. I have followed Adam for a while on Instagram but it was good to hear him talk about how he works with the natural world to get the best out of his garden.
This is the second time I have watched this video but this young gardener is a person after my own heart! I have such joy in the garden and I understand his delight in his own. I would love to have chickens and ducks but I live in the suburbs with rules about that. Thanks again for the lovely video!
This was a fantastic video. Love the use of wool for the soil cover!!!! I wish more people would see wool as superior over synthetics. This would lead to a supply of sustainably produced and environmentally friendly products being produced that would not result in plastic microbes chooking our landfills and oceans. A win-win! Really enjoyed seeing another beautiful garden. And I love the use of poultry.
Thank you very much :) I completely agree sheeps wool or any kind of wool for that matter is like gardeners gold. Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
What an inspiration! I'm starting with 1/4 acre which isn't as big as his 1/3-1/2 acre but even if I could get a little slice of his garden I would be so happy!!! it's definitely looking more like his "before" picture right now lol
What an amazing garden! My fiance is from Scotland and he lives in council housing close to 'The Botanics,' an amazing turn of the century greenhouse with large grounds and also outdoor gardens. I'm from California and have a backyard garden so seeing this was amazing. It's so beautiful over there!! I also love Welsh people, I used to race rally cars and did a few special races with Welsh co-drivers from across the pond. Absolutely wonderful, friendly people!
Thank you Stella :) that sounds absolutely brilliant. Thank you or as we say in Welsh Diolch, as well for your relaly kind comments about Welsh people being friendly. I am naturally unashamedly biased, but I would agree :P
I loved the "Quack Pack", we have 3 chickens and are considering ducks. The more I look into it the better an idea it appears. We are also thinking of the Welsh Harlequins as we'd like to support the breed as we too are based in Wales. I will look up Adams Instagram site to develop my gardening and Welsh. What a star, thanks you so much for sharing.
Thank you Emma :) definitely ducks will be a joy to have in the garden they are such characters! Croeso Emma I look forward to following your potential new ducks in the future :)
Hallo from Germany 🇩🇪 I‘ve started a vegetable garden and food forest 4 years ago and the chickens are fun as well. It’s rewarding to see the development from planting the first trees and berries to vegetables and seed starting under LED. Every year is different and there is so much to discover and learn.
Hallo Wuste und wie geht's? Woher aus Deutschland kommst du :)? Stimmt, baume und pflanzen sind wie leute, aller haben ihres eigenes gesischte :D Bis bald!
Hallo Adam I‘m from Hesse (Hessen) near Frankfurt. We‘ve got a moderate climate along the volkanic line called Taunusgraben and therefore have much milder winters compared to southern parts like Bavaria. Almost like in the UK so I quite enjoy Uk gardening channels.
Thank you, Adam for sharing your garden and what you have learned. Your comment about raised beds allowing rain to drain made me realize that I should be planting my garden in a submerged bed. It is hot and dry here and my raised beds drain way too fast. Time to experiment with in ground beds instead. Water is the limiting factor here. I enjoyed the tip about the Welsh ducks, I will add them to my list for future poultry. Blessings.
That’s fantastic and it’s so true how we can reverse ideas to adapt to different climates ☺️. Brilliant please keep in touch on how you get a long with the beds and Welsh Harlequins 😃
Swore this was a Caribbean accent! Imagine my surprise, when I saw the flag of Wales waving on the pole. Beautiful garden, I see the hard work and respect it.
Love your video. Same here. Gardening is my escape. With everything going on in the world, I find refuge in my garden. It's my lifeline. I spend ours in my garden.
This was such a pleasure to watch! I could listen to him talk about his garden all day! I saved it to my "Best" folder, to watch again in the future. :)
I love gardening too! The wool idea is epic! I put my latest rot-free raised bed video up. I've been building these in the garden the whole week. Great weather to enjoy! I wish I could grow those blueberries.
Thank you :) We have plenty of wool to hand in Wales and sadly there isn't much market value to it, so much of it get's burnt which isn't great at all, not for the environment especially when we can make great use of it in our gardens!
I am so pleased you posted this Huw, If you remember me I started at Crosshands, I have a huge amount of beds now and putting up my third polytunnel, I have 30 chickens, !0 Welsh Harlequin ducks and Pygmy goats,,, I am only three miles from this gentleman and I didn't know he was there... lol, We seem to be working on the same level but he is vastly more experienced than me. I cant wait to meet him..
Shwmae Tony, what a small world. I am so glad you have Welsh harlequins perhaps we could do an exchange of drakes to improve our blood lines? I currently have 8 surplus drakes, your welcome to have one :P! Whereabouts are you? When lockdown restrictions are lifted perhaps we can visit each other's gardens :) All the best, Adam
@@adamynyrardd Morning Adam, great to hear from you, initially i purchased 7 ducklings, ended up with 5 drakes and 2 ducks... lol, it took a while to redress the situation, currently have 10 Ducks and 2 unrelated Drakes, so hard finding homes for the Drakes though isnt it.
Thanks soooooo much Huw for sharing this garden & gardener! I actually follow him on Instagram, but it was so fun to see your video and go through this amazing garden! 👩🌾
Thank you :) I am so very grateful to collaborating more with Huw, Huw's a huge inspiration and has given me a fantastic opportunity to share my story :)
Time to reflect on what is important, birds, plants and wildlife …I have the calling to work the land ….almost was there when Covid and I have had to wait …. I love this….
I was mesmerized watching & listening! You have a most beautiful garden. I can tell you enjoy what you do🥒🥬. Thank you for sharing you story & passion❣️
Please post more videos of your garden. I would love to see how you are housing the ducks! Maybe a tour of your green houses and how you are using them throughout the year...I have subscribed. So, looking forward to more postings.
Thank you very much, I definitely will try my best, it's difficult trying to juggle creating great content and a day job, but I will definitely make a note of your suggestions :) I have also got an instagram page which is updated more regular @adamynyrardd :) Thanks again for your kind comments!
I didn't know how much I needed this until I saw it. Tears in my eyes. My little (10m x 6m) urban garden is buried under snow , but my seeds are waiting patiently. I also grow edible flowers like borage and nasturium all over for the pollinators.
Thank you :) Such a lovely comment. We have since lost our snow cover but it's still cold and I think that we are in for a very cold February so plenty more on the way. But I can't wait for the growing season to start in earnest. It's amazing how the March sun heats up the ground.
6:29 my second viewing. So I did not store away the gold nugget about the potatoes the first time. He grows them in 30 l buckets. The variety is blight resistant, is called Saro Mira, grows well in containers, and can be planted outside of the normal times. He just got some that he had planted 14 days before as young potatoes. In fall he removes the top of the plant, but leaves the potatoes in the soil in the container. They come into a shed and they keep well in the soil, he digs them out when he wants them.
I love everything about this video 😍 You are such an Amazing person. Thank you so much for sharing your passion for gardening. There is no need for escaping when you are gardening... I couldn't agree more.
The gentleman is so right "you have to garden within the environment you are in". So many folks like the looks of raised gardens or listen to folks on TH-cam extolling the wonders of raised beds and assume they think they are the best way to garden. They build them in areas where they are not a good idea at all. I'm in a dry area and water is not easy to come by. I watched a neighbour go to great trouble and expense building a lovely raised garden. I didn't say anything because young folks don't like listening to old farts. (Most naturally know better). In less than 3 years she had given up gardening because the garden dried out and died each year by august.
Thank you Bill 😁 yes definitely as you have illustrated you can't just pick a garden up and move it or replicate it so much depends on the soil conditions and microclimate of that garden 😊
Absolutely beautiful garden, especially when considering what the yard looked like initially. Really refreshing to hear the approach that takes into account the natural echo system, like growing flowers for the bees. Very inspiring.
Our love for garden is so similar. My papa was also my influence on gardening. My garden is no way near what your garden is, but I do have the same passion and love for growing anything. Much admiration here all the way from Hawai’i!!! Aloha🤙🏼🙏🏼👍🏼
Aloha and thank you very much for your lovely comment, Hawai'i must be a dream to live and garden! Do you have an Instagram account or a TH-cam channel? I'm sure garden is wonderful :)
@@adamynyrardd no social media accounts. Well except watching videos on TH-cam but I’m no guru when it comes to technology. I just watch awesome and productive content on TH-cam. Keep up the great work!!🙏🏼🤙🏼
exquisite. its completely filled up, but everything is organized and has its own place and function. very cleverly done. thank you for sharing your small patch of paradise.
I absolutely love this garden, the approach, and the execution. Perhaps the best is the character of Adam himself. Huw, thank you for sharing such lovely gardens and people like this with us, your devoted fans. Adam, thank you for allowing us enjoy this wonderful garden.
Love that he mentioned TREES GROW!! In just four years, my backyard is almost completely shaded. I am forced ti grow in the front yard now. Consider trees when purchasing your house or trees. Also consider tree growth when installing garden beds and structures. Rhubarb, some herbs and greens will grow in partial shade, as well as raspberries and other berries. Deciduous trees allow for more sunlight in spring, especially my very late flowering Catalpa. TFS

Thank you so much for leaving a comment and really kind as well 😊
loved this, what a gentleman
Thanks Gaz! He is an inspiration :)
Thanks Gaz and Huw :D this comment has made my day :)

Don’t know if I’m more impressed with the garden or this guys passion
Both, at equal measures
My thoughts exactly!

"When your world is gardening, you don't need an escape, that is the escape" I love this quote, so true! I started gardening 2 years ago, but growing up my family gardened and depended on our garden for food production. I really want to get back to that, to that self sufficiency.
Ahh thank you :) I hope you've had a great growing season so far :)
Exactly that’s what I keep telling my family let’s stay in the garden it is our escape and we don’t have to go spend thousands of dollars on a vacation
'Veg garden doesn't have to be industrial, it can be beautiful as well' totally agree
Thanks Ed, that was one of my main goals to incorporate as much flowers in the garden as well, and most are edible which we often forget as well!
"Why turn compost when the chickens can do that for you, and you have eggs at the same time?" Love it!
:) you just can't find better composters than the hens :)
The information this man has should be taught to children everywhere. Even if we can't do what he's done, if we could do 10% of it, it would be such a benefit to our wallets, health, and society as a whole.
Aaaah thank you Stacy that's very kind of you and I agree if we all just did a little bit the environmental and economic impact would be absolutely huge! In Wales before long health and wellbeing will be a part of the national curriculum and gardening will be very much a part of that 😁
We need more Adam jones's in the world. What a wholesome nice young man.
Ahhh that's a really lovely thing to say Rebecca, thank you :)
It's your kingdom, that makes you a King!!!
Haha!!
A King and his domain.
Somehow, Adam, i feel like you are born to teach the world how you garden.
I feel like that too!
Thank you :) that's the ultimate compliment. I think the best thing about garden is the constant knowledge sharing with like minded people, never do we know enough as gardeners!
@@adamynyrardd It was your name Adam that prompted my comment.
It was actually the first ever Adams punishment to have to cultivate the ground and make his own food for survival..
And ironically here we are praising the fact that we can take part in the (punishment) cultivation of the ground ........as we were given the task to have dominion over the planet.
Maybe its our way back to eden :-)
Genesis.......
cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
Gen 3:18
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
Gen 3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground;
Before his punishment Adam needed to do nothing for nature did it all by itself.

Thank you, Adam for sharing your garden and what you have learned. Your comment about raised beds allowing rain to drain made me realize that I should be planting my garden in a submerged bed. It is hot and dry here and my raised beds drain way too fast. Time to experiment with in ground beds instead. Water is the limiting factor here. I enjoyed the tip about the Welsh ducks, I will add them to my list for future poultry. Blessings.
That’s fantastic and it’s so true how we can reverse ideas to adapt to different climates ☺️. Brilliant please keep in touch on how you get a long with the beds and Welsh Harlequins 😃
Swore this was a Caribbean accent! Imagine my surprise, when I saw the flag of Wales waving on the pole.
Beautiful garden, I see the hard work and respect it.
Haha now that's not something I have heard before. I sometime wouldn't mind a Caribbean climate here! Thank you very much :)
You should hear the cork accent in Ireland .no difference between them lol
what a lovely garden.. such beauty all around
Thank you for your kind message 😁
Gardening is a delightful escape! Beautiful video. Thank you!
Thank you very much :) isn't it just!
This is LIFE goals for me
Thank you that's so kind 😁😁
What a beautiful video and what a beautiful person! Thank you for sharing! I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos! Vikki, Spain.
Thank you Vikki 😁🤩
What a wonderful video. Adam has an incredible garden and he is such a inspiration. Thank you for sharing these videos with us Huw.
Thank you :)
Huw thank you for finding paradise spots like this!!!! I thought I am alone... I am happy to watch your channel!!!😀
Thank you Irina I was so happy to welcome Huw to the garden to film this video 😁
Love your video. Same here. Gardening is my escape. With everything going on in the world, I find refuge in my garden. It's my lifeline. I spend ours in my garden.
Exactly that Laura :) Five minutes in the garden instantaneously makes the world a better place :)
This was such a pleasure to watch! I could listen to him talk about his garden all day! I saved it to my "Best" folder, to watch again in the future. :)
Thank you for your lovely comment Angel 😁😊
What a well spoken guy 👍🏻
Ahhh thank you, I normally struggle with English but am glad that this came across well :)
Wow! Your garden is super cool. I really love it and you've shown me the garden I've been dreaming for.
Ahhh thank you Rose that's really kind of you :)
Your passion for gardening is very motivating. Thanks for this great video 👍
I love gardening too! The wool idea is epic!
I put my latest rot-free raised bed video up. I've been building these in the garden the whole week. Great weather to enjoy! I wish I could grow those blueberries.
Thank you :) We have plenty of wool to hand in Wales and sadly there isn't much market value to it, so much of it get's burnt which isn't great at all, not for the environment especially when we can make great use of it in our gardens!
@@adamynyrardd Can it be composted in a year?
@@TheRainHarvester Yes absolutely :)
Huw, I love this series of other gardeners who are experimenting with the no-dig concept. Thank you for bringing these folks to our attention.
You're most welcome!😊
What a wonderful person. This video went by so fast.
aaaaaah thank you 😊😍
I am so pleased you posted this Huw, If you remember me I started at Crosshands, I have a huge amount of beds now and putting up my third polytunnel, I have 30 chickens, !0 Welsh Harlequin ducks and Pygmy goats,,, I am only three miles from this gentleman and I didn't know he was there... lol, We seem to be working on the same level but he is vastly more experienced than me. I cant wait to meet him..
Shwmae Tony, what a small world. I am so glad you have Welsh harlequins perhaps we could do an exchange of drakes to improve our blood lines? I currently have 8 surplus drakes, your welcome to have one :P! Whereabouts are you? When lockdown restrictions are lifted perhaps we can visit each other's gardens :) All the best, Adam
@@adamynyrardd Morning Adam, great to hear from you, initially i purchased 7 ducklings, ended up with 5 drakes and 2 ducks... lol, it took a while to redress the situation, currently have 10 Ducks and 2 unrelated Drakes, so hard finding homes for the Drakes though isnt it.
Thanks soooooo much Huw for sharing this garden & gardener! I actually follow him on Instagram, but it was so fun to see your video and go through this amazing garden! 👩🌾
Thank you :) I am so very grateful to collaborating more with Huw, Huw's a huge inspiration and has given me a fantastic opportunity to share my story :)
Time to reflect on what is important, birds, plants and wildlife …I have the calling to work the land ….almost was there when Covid and I have had to wait …. I love this….
I was mesmerized watching & listening! You have a most beautiful garden. I can tell you enjoy what you do🥒🥬. Thank you for sharing you story & passion❣️
Thank you Dee that's really kind of you :D I do love gardening, any excuse :P
@@adamynyrardd 👍💖
I like gardening
It's a good thing to like :)
I love your garden and passion. I will be starting my garden this summer and look forward to new videos from you.
Thank you Tena 😁 good luck with your exciting new project 😁
Please post more videos of your garden. I would love to see how you are housing the ducks! Maybe a tour of your green houses and how you are using them throughout the year...I have subscribed. So, looking forward to more postings.
Thank you very much, I definitely will try my best, it's difficult trying to juggle creating great content and a day job, but I will definitely make a note of your suggestions :) I have also got an instagram page which is updated more regular @adamynyrardd :) Thanks again for your kind comments!
Huw, what a lovely video. Thank you for posting such a lovely video. Great to watch a video where its literally down to earth.
☺️☺️☺️
I didn't know how much I needed this until I saw it. Tears in my eyes. My little (10m x 6m) urban garden is buried under snow , but my seeds are waiting patiently. I also grow edible flowers like borage and nasturium all over for the pollinators.
Thank you :) Such a lovely comment. We have since lost our snow cover but it's still cold and I think that we are in for a very cold February so plenty more on the way. But I can't wait for the growing season to start in earnest. It's amazing how the March sun heats up the ground.
What a fantastic garden!
He has a lot of sensible advice, knowledgeable chap and an inspiration.
Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
6:29 my second viewing. So I did not store away the gold nugget about the potatoes the first time. He grows them in 30 l buckets. The variety is blight resistant, is called Saro Mira, grows well in containers, and can be planted outside of the normal times. He just got some that he had planted 14 days before as young potatoes. In fall he removes the top of the plant, but leaves the potatoes in the soil in the container. They come into a shed and they keep well in the soil, he digs them out when he wants them.
I’m just sat here listening to his lovely welsh voice 💜
I love everything about this video 😍 You are such an Amazing person. Thank you so much for sharing your passion for gardening. There is no need for escaping when you are gardening... I couldn't agree more.
Ahhh Margo thank you for such a lovely positive comment it's made my day :D
The gentleman is so right "you have to garden within the environment you are in". So many folks like the looks of raised gardens or listen to folks on TH-cam extolling the wonders of raised beds and assume they think they are the best way to garden. They build them in areas where they are not a good idea at all. I'm in a dry area and water is not easy to come by. I watched a neighbour go to great trouble and expense building a lovely raised garden. I didn't say anything because young folks don't like listening to old farts. (Most naturally know better). In less than 3 years she had given up gardening because the garden dried out and died each year by august.
Thank you Bill 😁 yes definitely as you have illustrated you can't just pick a garden up and move it or replicate it so much depends on the soil conditions and microclimate of that garden 😊
Definitely one of my favourite videos
Such a great guy and so inspiring! Thanks a lot for sharing.
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Very practical and beautiful tips. Thanks for sharing this beautiful part of the world and your exquisite farm with us. Cymru rocks!
Thanks the Pearl for your lovely comment 😊 I certainly agree that Cymru rocks 😁🏴
This guy has his garden game wired tight! Amazing space!
Absolutely beautiful garden, especially when considering what the yard looked like initially. Really refreshing to hear the approach that takes into account the natural echo system, like growing flowers for the bees. Very inspiring.
Thank you Brian 😊👌 Of course it's not just my garden and sadly won't always be mine either but the bees will call it home forever!
Our love for garden is so similar. My papa was also my influence on gardening. My garden is no way near what your garden is, but I do have the same passion and love for growing anything. Much admiration here all the way from Hawai’i!!! Aloha🤙🏼🙏🏼👍🏼
Aloha and thank you very much for your lovely comment, Hawai'i must be a dream to live and garden! Do you have an Instagram account or a TH-cam channel? I'm sure garden is wonderful :)
@@adamynyrardd no social media accounts. Well except watching videos on TH-cam but I’m no guru when it comes to technology. I just watch awesome and productive content on TH-cam. Keep up the great work!!🙏🏼🤙🏼
exquisite. its completely filled up, but everything is organized and has its own place and function. very cleverly done. thank you for sharing your small patch of paradise.
My morning/destressing ritual includes watching your videos. I'm inspired to grow my veggies. Now if I can just find that plot of garden... :-)
What a lovely informative video. Adams Welsh lilt is wonderful. Really enjoyable.
Thanks Rosemary 😁😊
I absolutely love this garden, the approach, and the execution. Perhaps the best is the character of Adam himself. Huw, thank you for sharing such lovely gardens and people like this with us, your devoted fans. Adam, thank you for allowing us enjoy this wonderful garden.
Thank you, diolch John 😁 what a lovely and kind thing to say, that brought a smile to my face 😁
Love that he mentioned TREES GROW!! In just four years, my backyard is almost completely shaded. I am forced ti grow in the front yard now. Consider trees when purchasing your house or trees. Also consider tree growth when installing garden beds and structures. Rhubarb, some herbs and greens will grow in partial shade, as well as raspberries and other berries. Deciduous trees allow for more sunlight in spring, especially my very late flowering Catalpa. TFS
