It’s time to make the vegetable bed at Beechgrove Garden. There are top tips for making your garden as productive as possible, whether you have a border, a balcony, or a window box. Lizzie Schofield and Calum Clunie guide you through one of the busiest times of the year on the horticultural calendar as the days get longer and the weather warmer. There is another great selection of Handy Hints, and the team tackle the major project of taking down a fence damaged in the high winds of January and coming up with a creative alternative. If you have moved into a new house and are wondering what to do with that bare garden, there is the start of a new series following the development of a newbuild patch of grass into a great family space. We catch up with father and daughter gardeners Joe and Erin Armstrong in East Lothian, and there is another great garden visit.
