GARDENERS' VIEWS- THE UK NATIONAL GARDENS SCHEMETHE GARDENS OF ENGLAND AND WALES  From
the grandest of castles to the tiniest of courtyards, we all love the sights,
sounds and smells of the garden. Almost three and a half thousand enthusiastic
gardeners now open their gardens for the National Garden Scheme Charitable
Trust, pleasing countless visitors and contributing much needed funds to a
number of charities. Each video contains two programmes from the British TV
series . Gardeners Views. . These programmes are presented by the owners
themselves who give a unique insight into the creation of their gardens.
*There are four volumes,
each video covers 10 gardens and runs for 50 minutes Some sections of these programmes have
appeared in our previous titles - Gardens of England and Wales Volumes 1 to 3.
PRICE LIFE IN THE GARDEN - THE LAST RESORT  Hostile
pressures on the countryside mean the garden has become more important. If you
put all the gardens in the UK together it would make the largest refuge in the
country for wildlife, making a place for plants, for animals, for insects where
they can hide, where they can breed. We can all do our bit to help nature. Most
people think that to create a wildlife garden you just need to leave it alone
and just let it go to nature, but it needs to be planned, it needs to be
managed. This programme features gardeners who have successfully integrated the
needs of wildlife and their designs. It contains spectacular plant and wildlife
photography. 49 minutes.

The
first in a new series on specific plants and groups. This video contains the
first two television programmes just shown in the UK. The Plant files open up
the wonderful world of plants to everyone. It is a series which is brimming over
with beautifully photographed plants. Introduced by Terry Underhill and Frances
Donovan who bring you the stories behind the plants, some you will know - some
most definitely will surprise you. Terry and Frances explain how man-made
habitats can imitate nature and thus allow a wider range of plants to be grown
in your garden. In this compilation - Volume 1 - Terry looks at winter colour
and talks to plant enthusiast Rose Clay about Ilex (Hollies), Euonymus (Spindle
Bushes), Daphnes and Hellebores. Terry also visits the gardens of the Pines in
Devon and Pine Lodge in Cornwall. In her ‘Plant Portraits’ Frances covers
Garrya, Drimys winteri (Winter Bark), Galanthus (Snowdrops), Helleborus foetidus
(Stinking Hellebore), Ranunculus ficaria (Lesser Celandine) , a Narcissus and an
early flowering Rhododendron. 60 minutes.
