Wednesday, 5 February 2014. Don't Put Your Daughter On The Stage. I read in this month's Gardener's World magazine an interesting debate between James Alexander-Sinclair and Helem Yemm entitled ". Would you want your kids to work in gardening? Having taught horticulture to many young people, and having been witness to their subsequent career paths, I guess i'm in a good position to share in the debate somewhat. So, what is the basic problem with young people entering the gardening/horticulture sector?

Marc's Gardens: July 2014
http://marcsgardens.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 July 2014. I was going to visit a friend in Hemel Hempstead the other day. From Sevenoaks, this means going half way round the M25, past such notorious hold-up-hotspots as Clackets and around Jct 8 and 9. I decided to leave after 9.00am in the hope that most of the commuter traffic would be gone by then and that the M25 might be slightly quieter. Some hope! 65279;. Lots of lovely lovely Stipa gigantea. As I say, it was a baking hot day, and boy! 65279;. 65279;. 65279;. Everything ...

http://marcsgardens.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 26 May 2013. I haven't written an entry for a little while. J'ai été très. Ee, i'm still doing my evening class French! Well, hopefully I can produce something of horticultural and literary merit for you during this spare 60 minutes of mine. So, seeing as this is a bit of a re-introduction, let's commence with a dainty little picture taken this past week. A week spent with high winds, dodging rain and hailstones. and it's nearly June! So, what have I been up to? And many with a certain Mr Oudolf.

Marc's Gardens: August 2015

Sunday, 9 August 2015. Knowing What You Don't Know. There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. Gardening customers of mine will be used to the sight of me working away quite happily with a small and discreet single earpiece, usually stuck in my right ear. Why always my right ear, I don't quite know? Well, the topic of...

Marc's Gardens: April 2014
http://marcsgardens.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 8 April 2014. Here Comes the Sun. Flower! Perhaps even…. The Greatest Flower? How is the humble Sunflower much like The Beatles? Well, and bear with me on this one. Imagine you asked a hundred people in the street to. 8216;name the biggest , best, most popular pop group of all time’… I reckon The Beatles would form a majority answer. Was always my favourite! By now, regular readers of my blog will know that I LOVE yellow daisies. Again, a rather camp-sounding admission, but who cares! Linguistic...

Sunday, 8 February 2015. With nothing but a pair of shears and some bamboo supports,. Thai gardeners go about shaping these trees. You would think that with the days getting longer (since Dec 21. And the sun getting slowly stronger… Well, you wonder why it seems to get so much colder in Jan and Feb? Of course, the reason for this is obvious really. Basically, the land and the seas around us have been getting slowly cooler since autumn, with them reaching their lowest temperatures around now! Spanish stre...
