2026: Episode 11

George Anderson and Ruth Vichos are back in the Beechgrove Garden just outside Aberdeen, where the climate has been very mixed over the last few weeks. They assess just how that has affected the crops and blooms.\n\nGeorge is in the fruit cage checking for pests and also prunes the Beechgrove fig. Ruth is in her vertical plot, ideal for anyone with a small garden or little space to grow, where she plants a perennial that will give a crop year after year. George plants beans, and there’s a visit to Colin Crosbie’s plot near Dumfries, where he is moving hostas and pruning pulmonaria.\n\nThere’s also a lifting of the first tatties of the year, grown in a container and kept indoors to produce an early crop.
