    I do love that the gardener still has dirt under his fingernails when he hands the flowers to the house maid. Makes it that much more realistic.

    The caps worn by the "common man" were incredibly cute back then - so much nicer than today's baseball caps!

      Stonework Megapup called Flat Caps, my Dad always wore one, they go in and out of fashion over here all the time so I think we can call them a ‘classic’ of British apparel.

      Snow is pretty decent at scrubbing away dirt...
      Picked Jerusalem artichokes once while there was snow on the ground and probably below freezing, but no ground frost (that would have been a different beast altogether). Don't recommend the experience, but then I'm not exactly used to that kind of stuff.

    • @tralala9873
      @tralala9873 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Mostly just shoveling snow in the winter, I think. Plus the water would have to be warmed up a bit so it doesn’t become ice.

    Thank you for mentioning how many changes of clothes (or lack thereof) he may have had. It helps so much to get an idea of how hard-wearing his clothes had to be, and what variety of experience (or lack thereof) his life may have had.

    This makes me tear up because this is literally how my grandma and grandpa met. My grandpa was a gardener for my grandma's father and one day when he went for a break, he took some gumamela flowers from the garden and gave it my grandma sneakily... I love you lola and lolo. ❤

    When he brought the posey out from behind his back, to present to the girl he was visiting, I couldn’t help it - I just burst into tears! 😭 I’m a very sentimental man, but that really was particularly beautiful - very sweet and relatable, I thought.
    I’m looking forward to part two!

    Oh my goodness. My great-great-so-many-greats grandfather was a young victorian gardener at an estate, where he met his wife, years before he eventually emigrated to the US. He is a family hero and I appreciate this peek into what his life might have been like. It made me teary eyed thinking about him. Thanks for this video

    • @scarletpimpernelagain9124
      @scarletpimpernelagain9124 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      To answer my own question (weird A.F, that’s meLol!) I found the pattern in Centenary Stitches edited by Elizabeth Lovick published by Northern Lace Press, Orkney, Scotland. If you go onto the video of the Working Class Edwardian Suffragette they provide a link in the drop down box under the film. Unfortunately there is no pattern in the book for the gorgeous cardigan the girl in the film wears,,..

      Muirsa There will be old gardening books in the U.K. that contain information like that. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Royal Horticultural Society didn’t have several - hundred - Lol! There’s always the British Library, contains a copy of every book ever published in the U.K, old Almanacks, Gardeners diaries, old Newspaper Gardening columns, lots of sources really.

    An old song about bothy boys in Scotland! Look up Claire Hastings singing it on youtube, she's absolutely wonderful and it's such a great song! It's about bothy lads who would get together with girls then go to war and leave the girls behind, pregnant. There's a slightly different take on the valentine's day theme for you!!

    Fascinating. My great-great grandfather was a gardener in England before he immigrated to the US. I long wondered about his life. He was slightly after this time, but not by much (born 1860s.) I wonder if his father was also a gardener, as he would have been the age of this man in the video in the 1850s. Thank you for bringing history to life and helping me imagine what my ancestors lives were like.
