This week at Beechgrove Garden, there is preparation for the months to come as well as reaping the results of planting earlier in the year.\n\nThe windowsill tomatoes are in full fruit and have been ideal for anyone with only a windowsill to grow on, producing plenty for summer salads. Looking ahead, Calum is sowing a selection of tasty winter vegetables, while Carole is harvesting the blooms planted in the spring with a view to being dried and used for dried flower arrangements.\n\nElsewhere, there is a report from a community garden in the Cranhill area of Glasgow.
