Kicking off this spooky season with one of the strangest flowers in the plant kingdom, Stapelia grandiflora!

This species produces huge, star-shaped flowers that smell like rotting flesh to attract flies for pollination. Nature really doesn’t get much more bizarre than this!

150 days of growing this Siberian Orange watermelon, and finally getting to eat it! The orange flesh is brilliant and my goodness it was worth the wait.

Now I just need to find Jane.

Dahlia imperialis, the tree dahlia. A towering species with bamboo-like stems, enormous foliage and beautiful late-autumn flowers.
Native to Mexico and Central America, it brings a tropical feel to the garden.

Discovered Nicotiana sylvestris while wandering through Blankenberge, Belgium. A striking ornamental to***co with enormous leaves and elegant, fragrant white flowers.

25/09/2026

Colocasia esculenta, commonly known as elephant ear. Native to tropical Asia, it’s recognised for its enormous, heart-shaped foliage and is also cultivated for its edible corms, known as taro.

One of Britain’s most unusual little orchids, hiding in plain sight.

Spiranthes spiralis, the autumn lady’s-tresses, is a tiny native orchid that flowers from late summer into autumn, often appearing in short grass and coastal habitats.

Its flowers form a beautiful spiral around the stem, giving the plant its botanical name and making it one of the most distinctive orchids you can find in the wild.

Filmed at Oxwich Bay, Gower.

Eight weeks ago, this Brugmansia was nowhere near this size. Now it’s covered in over 100 trumpets!

There’s something about a baby pink Brugmansia that feels almost innocent, soft and delicate. But beneath all that beauty is a plant that’s highly poisonous.

A perfect reminder that in nature, appearances can be wonderfully deceptive. Never judge a book by its cover.

British gardens have a character that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere. We’ve spent centuries bringing plants from across the world into our landscapes while still keeping that distinctly British sense of season and place. The result is gardens that feel abundant and natural without being completely wild. They change throughout the year and somehow always have something worth looking at. Maybe that’s why I think British gardens are the best. What do you think?

We’ve all seen dandelions appear in lawns, cracks and seemingly anywhere they can find a bit of soil. But beneath that familiar yellow flower is a remarkably successful plant, perfectly adapted to mowing, disturbance and spreading its seeds far and wide.

Nature has a habit of making the simplest-looking plants surprisingly clever.

After months of growing, my ‘Sugar Baby’ watermelon was finally ready for the taste test. The real question was whether all that time, watering and space was actually worth it…

Safe to say, I’ll be growing these again next year.

There’s something particularly satisfying about eating something you’ve grown yourself.
