I'd been wondering what you were up to and how your garden was coming along. Sorry to hear there won't be many more videos coming. Eggleston Hall gardens and your beautiful private garden are a joy and I've really enjoyed getting to know you all through your films. Take care of yourselves and enjoy your well earned rest. I shall keep my links open for your site, just in case you change your mind, but I do understand what it must take to create the content for all of these videos. Many thanks Malcolm for all the wisdom, fun, advice and sheer enjoyment you have given me and many others.😘
Giving up making these lovely videos Malcolm - I don't think so - there are only so many hours in the day to just twiddle ur thumbs n scratch ur nuts 👍
You are the best! but you make us happy, sad, and mad !! Happy, because of the things you show us. Sad, because we do not see you for a while. Mad !!! because you stay away so bloody long we do not know if your dead or alive and we have no way of getting touch with you except through a medium and you have to dead for that. Oh never mind glad to have met you. 😉😉🤣🤣
I have watched all of your videos, usually multiple times, and go back to lookup things. Each time I ago back I find I get lost in your humour, wit and generosity, losing hours. I miss your videos terribly, there is no one like you, but when you know it is time to stop we must accept that. Thanks for sharing so much for so long and best wishes to you and everyone you have introduced us to. From Australia. XXX. (But you do the worst Aussie accent.)
I want to let tou know how much you have taught me about propagation. The tuition you have given has been umatched. I want to thank you and everyone at Eggleson hall gardens for making me a better gardener. Your videos got me through some dark times with dark humour to make lighter days.
In a world of instant impact gardening for colour and fancy layouts i think your videos are needed as the in depth techniques and knowledge you have is being forgotten and left behind
For the past few years I have enjoyed every episode. Thanks for your brilliant observation and humor. I always thought you and Thomas should do a little comedy program. And thanks to Amanda for adding some saucy culture. Anything you film I will gladly watch.
Thank you, Malcolm. Very enjoyable as always. One request - before you retire from making these videos, please give us an update on our old friends from Egleston and Dorset.
I will see what I can do thinker…..I still do a couple of afternoons but sadly the Eggleston Hall estate from which the gardens are leased is up for sale….so the future there is currently uncertain…..though it’s available on ‘Right Move’ if you have a spare six million pounds knocking about.
I've always enjoyed following your videos. After 10 years of making them, you have left a good body of work for up and coming gardeners to understand the intricacies and methods of plant growing and propagation. I, for one, thank you for this, and I wish you, your family, dogs, and garden well in the future. Enjoy your retirement.
I am sad you are giving up doing videos Malcolm you are an amazing plantsman this old gal has learned so much from you. Your garden looks amazing and l love the peonies my favourite flowers which bring fond memories of my grandfather he was a good gardener he gardened into his nineties.... so you have a way to go yet!! 😊
What a treat to find this episode even if it could be the last. Thoughts are with the Eggleston crew. A big thank you to you and Lisa for leaving 10 years of laughs and advice I will start watching from the beginning all over again (and again)
🎉 getting ready to watch !!! Have been waiting for this !!!! (Watched) Loved it , everything is filling in and looking so beautiful ! One problem "last year of videos " 😢 ... You simply must keep sharing with us , we would all miss you terribly !!!
Oh don’t say that Malcom ,What would life be without your videos ?I’ve enjoyed them all these years ,so even if you only do them each season or one in full summer try and keep em up ,or my garden will go to pot 😂 Sunnyside I looking marvellous as I knew it would with you at the helm ,that deep purple delphinium reminded me that I had one at the back of my garden last year and it didn’t come up this year so I will have to investigate maybe it’s too near a wall ?nice to see Egglestone again ,how is Thomas and Clara . Oh and I like you new hairstyle Amanda and the lovely photos but gimme the green green grass of home 🏡 . hope to see you all again P L E A S E 😢🥰🥰🥰
Wishing you well in the future sounds like you've decided to finish and I'll have fun looking back at Eggleston years . Bit of a shocker about sale.. uncertainty for Thomas Lisa Clara Amanda and the crew.... hopefly it'll turn out all right... still think there's a lot we could learn but it has to be fun for you..and life moves on.. did you ever get the lottie?? Dave A would have been 87 this week so as echo in his famous close..may your god go with you.. thank you and cheers from Lewisham! Malcolm
I always liked that way of signing off…..it seemed so inclusive of any faith or no faith, we’re all still just people…so I used it to conclude this series.as there’s nothing more to be said. The Eggleston thing is not so much a shock as it’s been a possibility for a while…..it is quite depressing though when you’ve put so much blood, sweat and tears into creating something good. Never mind, life goes on and I will be posting something about things in the next week or so…..I think I’ve maybe given the wrong impression about packing up……I am as far as this series goes. Best wishes….Malcolm
Of course I loved this video. I am saddened by the idea that this may be the last time we get a glimpse into your amazing life and garden and hear all your fine commentary. (Where were the peacocks from and what happened to them?). I’m still holding out hope that you will reappear with the promised video of how to plait the garlic. Mine is harvested, cured, and laying on the kitchen counter, ready and waiting. I can understand how all the editing and videoing can get onerous and what retired person wants to have to feel sentenced to having to do anything. But even a 5 minute acerbic comment about anything plus video of how your plants are progressing would be so nice once in a while. Either way, I wish you and yours everything good. 💚💚💚
Sad to hear that this may be your last but thanks for "taking us on that journey"it was a blast. In Plantsmans Diaries you did propagating Delphiniums and nibs from primulas as separate videos. Would you consider posting all similar "tutorial" footage you have as separate short videos ? A kind of "Plantsmans Techniques" that could be easily accessed Hi to all at Egglestone, the sale must be a worry for all. I hope I can get "into the loop" when you are "making a few bob on mail order". Enjoy your retirement and stay safe....... Not Tessa,....... Tessas Dad.
Dear Malcolm, I will miss your videos so much, and I wish you all the beauty and peace and solace your lovely garden has to offer. I have to tell you how very grateful I am for all the plant knowledge you've shared . I only discovered your channel during 2020, and watched every one, learning so much about propagation that it gave me the confidence to rescue loads of plants in my mostly abandoned garden. I'm now able to be generous with these, and to replant some favourites from years ago. All the years of plant wisdom you've gathered have been so valuable to all of us. Thank you.
Always great to see you posting Malcolm. It will be sad if you decide to stop but I appreciate it must take a great deal of effort. Amazing what you have done with that garden in a short period of time, it looks great. Regards Guy
I’m only a minute in but so excited to see a new video from you Malcolm. I was just rewatching old vids because I missed how fun you are to listen to, besides all the great knowledge you share with us
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, gardens and dogs. 😊 You will be missed! I really hope you still pop one in once in a while for us! Enjoy your retirement!
Thanks you Malcs for the videos. I retired 3 months ago at age of 69. I am now taking on my garden full time - nearly 1 acre - so daunting. Luckily, touch wood I’m reasonably fit being a postie for the last 18 years. But I am going look through all your past work - follow your lead - and crack on a bit at a time. 🥴
PLEASE. Talk about the weather this year AND last year. How are your trilliums? Marsh marigolds and other American plants???? The pond? And, how are your friends? peace and love
Hi Malcolm, just want to say thank you for all the knowledge you have shared with us over the years. As a professional gardener I have learnt a lot from your videos.
Thanks for all the videos over the years Malcolm. I have learnt so much - and some of it has even been about plants!. It is a great resource for the future. The transformation of Sunnyside has been remarkable and I hope you can enjoy the fruits of your labour. A short update on the old friends from Egglestone would be fantastic. Have a great retirement - you and your dogs will be missed.
Thank you so much h for the latest video, stunning garden as always, glad you are well, will be sad if there are no more but totally understand, and agree with your sentiments re the planet. So sad😢 but you have provided us with so much joy, expertise and beauty down the years. Thank you so much. Enjoy😊
Yay another video, nay nery not the last show, fiddle dee dee and hey nonny no but gratitude and best wishes as off the fk you go. (poem in your rarified idiom dedicated to Lisa) I emmigrated to West Australia with it's piss poor soil/sand so your videos are like plant porn to me plus you make me laugh whilst learning. Garden is beginning to look spectacular, oh to be a hoverfly on the wall some 10 yrs from now. Farewell unmet friends, until we unmeet again. (Poem dedicated to me just because😉)
Thankyou Malcolm for the last ten years of videos' have liked them all, but my favourite will be the interview with Geoffrey Smith,purly because my old man ( father ) was a good friend, in fact he came to my dads funeral, and said a few nice words - something i will always treasure.Shame you will be reducing the videos you produce but hey ho good things have to come to an end. Good luck to yourself and Lisa have a happy life
Great video ,as always,missed your videos this year,but you look after yourself, keep doing what you do,if not on TH-cam,then young people have plenty of videos to watch,I also miss egglestone, maybe Thomas may pick up the camera,if you wanted a filter,I have one you could have,take it easy malcom
Thankyou for sharing & wonderful to see your garden coming together so beautifully, the pond is maturing & attracting all sorts of wildlife. Thanks for your video’s & enjoy your retirement in little piece of paradise
So glad your garden is so successful and the pond is an inspiration too. I’m 68 but I think I’ve got a project in me if that’s the result. Take care of yourself. If you could do the odd snapshot video it would be wonderful. Your videos and lovely ‘normal’ commentary helped me such a lot through the pandemic so one big thank you from me.
What a beautiful place. I wish your lads could come take care of the rabbits in my garden. My beautiful greyhounds make a great show of chasing them off and look terribly gorgeous whilst doing it but they do not approach it in a workmanlike fashion. Thank you for all the videos. I go back and watch them all the time. Fair winds sailor!
Cheers for all the laughs and knowledge in all these years my friend ...I've watched every single episode. Your sense of not so pc humour was refreshing 😄 ... hopefully you'll find some time and inspiration to update us all once in a while ..i wish you , your family and doggies of course all the best 👍🏻 greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 👋🏻
Hi Malcom, the gardens looking great, iv loved watching your vlogs over the years and learning a lot, all the best too you and your wife and all at Eggleston Hall, and of course Amanda and her lovely poems, take care all and hope to see some more vlogs sometime. ❤❤❤❤
I do hope thats not the end, its very hard to find someone else with the same childish smutty sense of humour - the "Carry on" generation. Ive thoroughly enjoyed the two series you did at Eggleston and this one - it sort of inspired me to do my garden up (not as big as yours (oo err) but there you go. I still watch the original ones from Plantsmans corner - that was a gorgeous plot of land with the stream and the potting shed ... great. maybe do an update 4 times a year of the progress and perhaps some of the scenery up in the frozen north? All the best Malcolm
Thanks a million Malcolm. Super video as always💚 . You are a golden nugget of knowledge Fyi: it seems ads are popping up every 4 minutes or so (just saying in case you hadn't noticed). Your place is looking smashing. Love the pond and the central arch ... I wish you all the very best. It has been a treat to watch you and learn from you😊💚🌱🌱 not many like you (not an insult 😂) around on the web in that field. Again thanks a mill. Take great care of that beautiful secret garden of yours (I know you will/figure of speech)...
Thank you for the kind comments and the ad information…..there was a time I could control the type and frequency of advertisements but not so much now….I don’t mind a few as it keeps me in beer money…one at the beginning and one half way that can be skipped…;but the whole concept has changed now and I get very little input. Best wishes….Malcolm
Thanks as always Malcolm please don’t spade away ! I was really looking forward to your potting shed tutorials/ramblings I hope this is not the last we see from you. But if it is I wish you a happy and fulfilling retirement
Hi Malcolm, just been to Egglestone to pick up some plants. Rather nice selection of conifers in stock atm. Anyway, get on with posting some further videos for your adoring fans. You have more knowledge to share and a new shed to record it in. Get on with it.
Thank you Malcolm, for all your videos over the years. You have a beautiful garden & it's a pleasure to watch the progress through the seasons. Most of all, your sense of humor is what I believe keeps us all wanting more! All the best from New York State!
Great to see new video, something to always look forward too, hope you don't stop making them, but plenty to look back on, are you working your allotment
Thanks Malcolm for sharing your plant knowledge over the years and providing so much entertainment. Would you consider visiting some of the great gardens of England and sharing videos of your visit from a plantsman's perspective?
Thank you for making me laugh once again! This is my second time watching, I just can’t get enough of the beautiful plant collection. Lisa does such a great job capturing the beauty of them. I was very saddened by your mentioning of potentially ending the series. I always am awaiting all your new episodes. Maybe you’ll change your mind… I’m hoping. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I echo some of the comments made, over the years I have learnt a lot of gardening techniques from you Malcolm . I hope that you continue purely for selfish reasons. Please also tell us what you do to keep the slugs and snails away from your plants such as Hostas. All the best to you and I hope this wasn’t goodbye?
Well that's you out to pasture then possibly good job on videos you have left a great stamp now go off and enjoy your time hope to catch an od video if you do happy for you and thanks for posting ive learnt a lot over the years amazing generousity of knowledge best wishes malcolm
Great to see a new video. I have really enjoyed your videos. I couldn't find any of the videos more than a year back. Does anybody know where they are gone.
If you go to the “Plantsmans corner” TH-cam channel and click on the videos tab they are all there…..going back 11 years….my god that’s depressing….it feels like just yesterday. Best wishes….Malcolm
Great to see a new video Malcolm. Thank you for making and sharing these with us and for the information you share. I am so envious of your trilliums having never really had any success growing them and I absolutely adore them.
Great to see you back, garden is looking splendid a lot of hard work went in to it. Nice to see the dogs and Tucker catching his dinner. Sadly we lost our Jack a month ago, it's like losing one of the family which they are if you love them. Hope you don't give up on making videos.
It is heart wrenching losing them backyard……you have my sympathy……I felt more loss losing the last one than I did my old mother. Probably says more about me than I’d like but the emotional pain was far worse….I think it’s the absolute trust they have in you that feels like your somehow failing them in their hour of need, they have no concept of lifespan. I carried our last one Molly around the gardens and nursery she patrolled her whole life just one last time before the vet came out and put her to sleep under her favourite tree……I wish I hadn’t written this now…..7 years later and it still hurts. Anyway, look after yourself and I hope you enjoyed the videos over the years…..best wishes…..Malcolm
My south facing concrete, six foot by four foot balcony with a roof above is very different from your growing conditions but every week I always watch the week of your English Nursery Garden Year series over and over and duplicate what you do and copy your weather at the time by bringing plants in when needed. What you do between about November 1 and May 1 happens here in the last three weeks of April. The trillium is the plant which represents Ontario and in spring you really should see a wild patch here. In week 30 Purple Loosestrife in the Ottawa River is a completely different game you may not have ever imagined. Propagation is discouraged. May I suggest you obtain The Herb Book by John Lust first published in the 1980's? While you know where plants come from you do not seem to know what they are used for and this book is definitive especially about American plants like Golden Rod, 'French' marigold, petunia,, Blood root, and many more you grow. All of the info in this book about American plants was known in America BEFORE European contact and has since been proven correct. Your comments about the weather in the UK and how it is affecting your garden would be VERY helpful. Please make more for You Tube more often! Peace and love Dean
Wow! I’m going to look for that book, since I have all that beautiful stuff (thank goodness no loosestrife) in my garden. I live in Ontario as well. Mid-Northern Ontario where Trilliums are everywhere ❤️. Thanks!
Hope you are well having to watch all the old stuff. Miss you.
Malcolm your garden is beautiful, I would love to have one seed of everything flower in your garden. Don’t retire we love your videos.
I'd been wondering what you were up to and how your garden was coming along. Sorry to hear there won't be many more videos coming. Eggleston Hall gardens and your beautiful private garden are a joy and I've really enjoyed getting to know you all through your films. Take care of yourselves and enjoy your well earned rest.

Giving up making these lovely videos Malcolm - I don't think so - there are only so many hours in the day to just twiddle ur thumbs n scratch ur nuts 👍
You are the best! but you make us happy, sad, and mad !! Happy, because of the things you show us. Sad, because we do not see you for a while.

"the bloody horrible snowdorps" Love it. :D This cast is the perfect counterpoint to GW.... :D
I’m not crying by the way. Just a bit of dust in my eyes.
Delighted to see you posted a video, it made our evening.. Welcome back.. Thank You.
I want to let tou know how much you have taught me about propagation.
The tuition you have given has been umatched. I want to thank you and everyone at Eggleson hall gardens for making me a better gardener.
Your videos got me through some dark times with dark humour to make lighter days.
Grateful for all the time and all the beauty. Wishing you Love and Happiness.

Thank you for Helping the rest of us dream of plants. 😊
Always a pleasure to visit 🇦🇺 its a long time between drinks 😊
Yes YEs YES, having a mini when Harry met Sally moment here 😂 great to see another top quality video. Thank you 👍
I’m only a minute in but so excited to see a new video from you Malcolm. I was just rewatching old vids because I missed how fun you are to listen to, besides all the great knowledge you share with us
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, gardens and dogs. 😊
You will be missed! I really hope you still pop one in once in a while for us! Enjoy your retirement!
simply ...THANKYOU and best wishes yo you all Malcolm,I will miss your videos immensely, love from Devon.
I hope you do a video at your old place of work to see how they are getting on before closing forever, we will miss you but thak you for sharing.
Like the description on this one! EPIC vid! 🎉 One main thing for a long life is a garden! All the best.
Thanks you Malcs for the videos. I retired 3 months ago at age of 69. I am now taking on my garden full time - nearly 1 acre - so daunting.

Love your disdain for the "aristocracy" , and the "coronation". It seemed like a Python episode really!
Jolly good to see you back again Malcolm. Thought you had forgotten us!!
PLEASE. Talk about the weather this year AND last year. How are your trilliums? Marsh marigolds and other American plants???? The pond?
And, how are your friends?
peace and love
Hi Malcolm, just want to say thank you for all the knowledge you have shared with us over the years. As a professional gardener I have learnt a lot from your videos.

The garden looks great and I was so excited to see it again. Wish the videos would continue, but I understand the need to move on. Take care.

Thank you for the kind comments and the ad information…..there was a time I could control the type and frequency of advertisements but not so much now….I don’t mind a few as it keeps me in beer money…one at the beginning and one half way that can be skipped…;but the whole concept has changed now and I get very little input. Best wishes….Malcolm
Another great video Malcolm, garden is looking beautiful 😍
Thanks as always Malcolm please don’t spade away ! I was really looking forward to your potting shed tutorials/ramblings I hope this is not the last we see from you. But if it is I wish you a happy and fulfilling retirement
Hi Malcolm, just been to Egglestone to pick up some plants. Rather nice selection of conifers in stock atm. Anyway, get on with posting some further videos for your adoring fans. You have more knowledge to share and a new shed to record it in. Get on with it.
Thank you Malcolm, for all your videos over the years. You have a beautiful garden & it's a pleasure to watch the progress through the seasons. Most of all, your sense of humor is what I believe keeps us all wanting more! All the best from New York State!
Great to see new video, something to always look forward too, hope you don't stop making them, but plenty to look back on, are you working your allotment
Thanks Malcolm for sharing your plant knowledge over the years and providing so much entertainment. Would you consider visiting some of the great gardens of England and sharing videos of your visit from a plantsman's perspective?
Thank you for making me laugh once again! This is my second time watching, I just can’t get enough of the beautiful plant collection. Lisa does such a great job capturing the beauty of them.
I was very saddened by your mentioning of potentially ending the series. I always am awaiting all your new episodes. Maybe you’ll change your mind… I’m hoping. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I echo some of the comments made, over the years I have learnt a lot of gardening techniques from you Malcolm . I hope that you continue purely for selfish reasons.
Please also tell us what you do to keep the slugs and snails away from your plants such as Hostas.
All the best to you and I hope this wasn’t goodbye?
Great video 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks Malcolm. I cud do with tips on propagating smoke bush cuttings. Mine always fail.
I thought you had left us. Anyway nice to see you once again. Those Poppies are my favourite would love some seeds if you have any left. Cheers, Ean.
I think we deserve a Christmas season posting Malcolm.....
Well that's you out to pasture then possibly good job on videos you have left a great stamp now go off and enjoy your time hope to catch an od video if you do happy for you and thanks for posting ive learnt a lot over the years amazing generousity of knowledge best wishes malcolm
Thanks for posting. Always appreciated.
Merry Christmas Malcolm!
Great to see a new video. I have really enjoyed your videos. I couldn't find any of the videos more than a year back. Does anybody know where they are gone.
If you go to the “Plantsmans corner” TH-cam channel and click on the videos tab they are all there…..going back 11 years….my god that’s depressing….it feels like just yesterday. Best wishes….Malcolm
Great to see you again! Your garden is beautiful, even the grass. Thank you!!
Please don't stop really 😢
Great to see a new video Malcolm. Thank you for making and sharing these with us and for the information you share. I am so envious of your trilliums having never really had any success growing them and I absolutely adore them.
So lovely to see you & your garden again … I’d love some poppy seeds if you’ve any spare … I’ve so many Tulipa Sprengeri seeds if you’d like to swap …
Great to see you back, garden is looking splendid a lot of hard work went in to it. Nice to see the dogs and Tucker catching his dinner. Sadly we lost our Jack a month ago, it's like losing one of the family which they are if you love them. Hope you don't give up on making videos.
It is heart wrenching losing them backyard……you have my sympathy……I felt more loss losing the last one than I did my old mother. Probably says more about me than I’d like but the emotional pain was far worse….I think it’s the absolute trust they have in you that feels like your somehow failing them in their hour of need, they have no concept of lifespan. I carried our last one Molly around the gardens and nursery she patrolled her whole life just one last time before the vet came out and put her to sleep under her favourite tree……I wish I hadn’t written this now…..7 years later and it still hurts. Anyway, look after yourself and I hope you enjoyed the videos over the years…..best wishes…..Malcolm
Oh Malcolm we are missing you. ☹️
YAY!
My south facing concrete, six foot by four foot balcony with a roof above is very different from your growing conditions but every week I always watch the week of your English Nursery Garden Year series over and over and duplicate what you do and copy your weather at the time by bringing plants in when needed.
What you do between about November 1 and May 1 happens here in the last three weeks of April.
The trillium is the plant which represents Ontario and in spring you really should see a wild patch here. In week 30 Purple Loosestrife in the Ottawa River is a completely different game you may not have ever imagined. Propagation is discouraged.
May I suggest you obtain The Herb Book by John Lust first published in the 1980's? While you know where plants come from you do not seem to know what they are used for and this book is definitive especially about American plants like Golden Rod, 'French' marigold, petunia,, Blood root, and many more you grow. All of the info in this book about American plants was known in America BEFORE European contact and has since been proven correct.
Your comments about the weather in the UK and how it is affecting your garden would be VERY helpful.
Please make more for You Tube more often! Peace and love Dean
Wow! I’m going to look for that book, since I have all that beautiful stuff (thank goodness no loosestrife) in my garden. I live in Ontario as well. Mid-Northern Ontario where Trilliums are everywhere ❤️. Thanks!
Malcom I am missing you. Hope everything is OK.
It was a Song Thrush!
Aww shit,you are leaving us permanently… you will be missed
lol Aussies getting it again
