  • Growing vegetables in the UK

    I live in a mountainous area of Scotland. I have been reading up on vegetables that can be grown in the UK. Will these vegetables apply to me? I live about 250 metres above sea level. Are there plants that most people in the UK will be able to grow that I won’t? Or should vegetables like beans, beetroot, carrots and cabbage grow in my garden no problem?

    what plants to put in a rockery?

    I've unearthed an old rockery underneath some brambles in my garden. I'd like to restore it but I'm not sure what to plant in it. It's in a semi-shaded area with a bit of a slope. The stones are there but not much else.

    Ancient Rome style garden

    What options do I have if I’d like to get creative and re-design my garden into something that resembles something you would find in ancient Rome with a few modern touches? Would it be difficult to find a professional who would be willing to take on such a job? What sort of professional or/and company should I inquire with about this?
