In the first of our new series, Notes from a Garden, we visit garden designer Arthur Parkinson at the Cotswold cottage he shares with his partner, interior designer James Mackie. In two years, Arthur has transformed the tiny space from the building site left behind after the cottage was extended, to a lush, abundant garden that is also a haven for wildlife. Here he talks us through the highlights in June, including his romantic border full of foxgloves and roses, his approach to planting in containers, how to care for sweet peas, and the keys to successful shade planting.

"...a plant that you've known from seed..." What a beautiful way of expressing his love for his garden!

@equestanton1017 Год назад

It is. Sometimes I forget when I look up at a grove of towering Roystonea olercea palm trees that I have known them from a few tiny seeds lying scattered on the mossy ground of a damp park in Singapore after a heavy tropical rain. They do become so much a part of you. However rather suddenly they're these things all in their own right that leave you in so much awe your part in it all seems rather insignificant to be honest. What can be grown out of small zip lock bags filled with tiny seed collected around the world can be truly astounding. The miracle of a seed, yes.

I love every video produced on this channel. Captures the warmth and sensitivity of each designer and their passion for their work. Arthur is as charming as his garden.

I’ve always wished Arthur had a RU-vid channel so I could see around his garden, so glad I came across this video! If anyone hasn’t read his books go buy them - you won’t regret it.

@davenadainton4209 6 месяцев назад

I've got them all and wish too that he had a channel..we could all learn lessons about how he cares for the environment and how to plant in a small space to help pollinators

He has an instagram account and is a prolific poster on there! :)

Loved Arthur's enthusiasm and care for this beautiful little garden. The interior is beautiful as well. Perhaps you can do a short video of the interior in the future?

@AthalieM 2 года назад

you may already know this but the website does have lots of lovely interior pics! though I would also welcome a video

@leadoucet1432 2 года назад

I would love to see the interior of this home, if possible. The chair and rug are perfection, imo.

I am moving from a 2000 m2 garden, an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard, all planted, fruit trees, climbing roses, figs, lavendar etc and into a smaller houser with an innder courtyard and 4m2 of earth ! I have just dug up my peonies and a recent vine and next will be a rose and jasmin as the house will remain empty once I leave. I have plans to extend the planting area and have already some big olive trees in pots and a silver birch. I potted up the fig tree and pomegranit tree as the base structure of the planting but first have to build up the planting area to a good height otherwise my little terriers will have a field day ! I know that I will miss my garden but I love a challenge and there are plenty of green spaces to walk the dogs despite moving into a townhouse. Arthur is such an inspiration.

@alixmordant489 2 года назад

I especially like that he cares for the environment, bees etc., as seen in his favourite dahlias, the lovely ivy etc. Ivy is great for insect and bird life indeed. And it is pretty.

Flowers, books, photographs and good lamps is all any room needs to instantly look chic and feel wonderful.

@jstewart3799 2 года назад

A real home, complete with the must have washing line. It is lovely that they really appreciate the age and original character of the property. My heart aches when people comletely modernise and destroy an older property. Especially given the fact that there are a lot more modern properties available, it's so destructive to depreciate irreplaceable history and beauty.

I love the tribute to you mom. I learned my love of garden and nature from mine as well. ❤️. What a warm, beautiful space you have created. I have watched it twice now! I am going to try increasing the compost under my sweet peas to see if I can improve my success. Thank you for the tour and information.

@gbear768 Год назад

I adore this garden and his love for it, too. The sweetpeas are so happy and huge and the rest are all my favorites, foxglove, roses even an artichoke! I'm wondering where is the peony, there must be a peony, right? Lovely, lovely!

Thanks for adding in how you water. I was wondering if had some type of irrigation. I know pots need watering daily, if not twice in the Summertime heat! Lovely home. Love the Sweet Peas in the vase! I need to plant some. I've thought about it, this confirmed it! Thanks for sharing 👍

Well said Arthur. I am literally the plants I grow. I eat them so I know them and they know me. We are biologically connected. There genes run in my blood, they maintain and rebuild me, we resow and the off spring of plants I have eaten already know me before they germinate When the break the soil it's like looking at an old friend. They grow well because they know my intention. They understand me and are happy that I spend time with them, that I am interested Lovely space thanks for sharing
