Scone Palace garden fair to escape the garden chores 

Looks like you had a lovely time at the show. Great weather, great backdrop and talking about gardening all day.. perfect. Really good to have something so tailored to Scotland for all of you north of the border 😊

What a great event to be a part of. Local advice that's relevant to real gardeners is so important. And of course you presented is a fun and creative way.

🐝thanks for the great video🌻 thanks for bringing me on this adventure!!!

I really enjoyed the video. Was it a lot more work to edit? Well done to M.T on her Bronze. What a truly lovely garden she made in such a small space.

Loved the look of those little fairy gardens. That show looked like great inspiration and community building!

Super fun video! Thanks for sharing.

Ahh the joy of hearing lots of Scottish voices chatting away, and complaining about the “heat” when it goes over 20c ! Happy childhood memory’s ❤

It was great to see what was going on at the fair Eli, I can't believe you both managed to not buy any plants 🪴Looked a lovely day. I loved the show garden from Blooming Scotland, I think it deserved more than a bronze. Your hanging basket looked great too and yes, chains are such a nuisance. Take care

Hallo Eli vielen Dank für all die tollen Videos und Informationen und liebe Grüße aus Köln Lydia

😊💐

Just came in from the garden so I have to ask why? Unless it’s too go to a garden supply store. Very hot here almost or at 90 degrees here the last three or four days. Things look good in the morning and not so great in the afternoon,O-well at least they are predicting some rain each of the next four days. Can’t believe the butterfly bush is the same one they shipped but I planted it.

If you're going to get out of the garden you might as well spend time with other gardeners.😀 That looked like great fun!

Loved the roving reporter coverage, hope you will do more of your road trips 😁🌱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

RHUBARB 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍I have 3 including one Timperley early. The others are Victoria and I think strawberry champagne. The last is a guess though.

What a fab idea the Scottish magazine much more relevant to the area. Wish Tasmania had something like it because the climate is very different to other States. Well done to MT.

Looks so much fun! Wish I could have flown in for that big event.

What a lovely video. Visiting Scotland and the rest of the UK is high on my must do list. Now I know when I want to go, end of May for all the garden shows. Even though I live in the PNW (Pacific Northwest of the US), my growing conditions are similar to yours, I watch a lot of UK gardeners. I hope to meet you at a show in a couple of years, my husband and I are planning a big trip for our 50th birthdays. Now to convince him garden shows are what he wants to do, maybe I'll throw in a bit of whisky tasting to sweeten the deal. Also, I need to move my rhubarb into more sun, I think that is why it's struggling. I too way overwatered it in the big pot.

Eli, is it normal for staging benches to wobble?! I just got some staging for the first time and was surprised (unpleasantly) to find it wobbles. I have no idea if this is normal. I was paying particular attention when you were working on your staging in this video and thought I did detect some wobbles!?

That was nice, I’ve. Been to Scone Palace once on our anniversary trip to Scotland. 8 years ago. Loved every minute. Nova Scotia to Scotland. Great trip and we had perfect weather that September.

Nice video in the Sun !. Last night ( and today) its freezing but bright between the showers in the west. Used to visit the Ayr flower show and enjoyed all the veg and flower competitions, but the most enjoyable was in to the marquee to visit the schools mini gardens and all the wee men and animals made from cucumbers with the hairy cress hairstyles. Cant beat the smell of damp grass !

Hi eli really enjoyed your video, both of you certainly had glorious weather at the flower show, I'm always impressed with your rhubarb I brought a crown but it rotted very quickly I should try again 👍

Great video, enjoyed something a bit different, and the new things you're trying out. And the spinning gimbal made me laugh every time! 🤣

Loved the video as always. I think you do a fantastic job on your video's. Great to see you both out and about. Take care for now Kate & Eli 👏👏

I'm impressed with the time it must have taken to create the special effects of a blue sunny sky in Scotland ;) Lovely video... it is indeed nice to get out and see what other people are doing.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only polar region-dweller regarding heat tolerance. :D (Norway zone 4)

Excellent video x 😊

Hi Eli & Kate, another lovely video, thanks for sharing and take care 😊

We visited Scone palace last year on our annual trip to Scotland and it was lovely. The grounds are amazing and loved the vegetable garden. Great to see you both having a lovely day out and enjoying the surroundings too

Great video Eli. Can I ask you about the basil you’re growing? I’ve sown a load of seeds and now have a pot full of seedlings, do I need to pot these on into individual pots or should I put a few seedlings in one pot. Obviously it’s the first time I’ve grown this and I don’t think I should’ve put so many seeds in one pot!!! Thanks Deb.

So funny listening to you talking about MT. Thats what I am called by all my family and friends ( its short for Marie Therese).

So you’re the one that’s stolen our sunshine lol😂 I’m shocked Kate didn’t buy any plants!! 😱

It's going to be 32° C tomorrow. I'd take your 20°C instead! (PS I hope I did the conversion correctly. It's supposed 90° or 91° F ... too hot for my liking.)

I'm going to relax in an old rock quarry turned into a huge garden on Vancouver Island. Butchart Gardens has an amazing collection of plants, trees, 🌹 roses. Now I can pronounce "scones" like the Scots do. Chains on hanging baskets are a whole world of their own. We're going to have 25°C later this week. At least it's not the "heat dome" like 3 years ago with 30°C for 5 days. 600 people died.

Looked a really great day out .... beautiful weather too ... loved the individual gardens Is it ever worth re - sowing after the recommended time period on the back of seed packets ...Im having zero success so far 😊🌻🌻🐝

Loved the restful garden Blooming Scotland made..so pretty

Well heck, I wish I’d even known about the fair. Next year I’ll be there. I’m scrounging around to find others this year.

Thanks for taking us along to the Garden Show! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
