A fond farewell from Ben and directions to the new podcast Dear Gardener, where the Garden Log lives on in spirit.
I'm going to keep the Garden Log online for those who want to relisten or are finding it for the first time. I'm think ready to start... more
In this excellent episode Ben finds roses like cats, lawns like dunes and flowers like clothes pegs. Also featuring a few simple tricks to stop things dying.
Its a sultry spring day on the Garden Log. We muse on the kindness of strangers, advise on planting for a rubble-strewn drive and yearn for romance.
In this recreation of a lost walk Ben visits the garden of G. N Brandt (deceased) who brought the arts and crafts movement to Denmark and whose modest orchard-watergarden-woodland survives in the suburbs north of Copenhagen.

- More please!
I’ve almost finished listening to all the back episodes of the garden log and I wait with baited breath for a new one!
Have you retired from gardening??
Or maybe just writing more books??
Looking forward to your return 😊

United Kingdom3 years ago - Smoldering passionate gardening
So I don’t think he’s always talking about gardening? Oh dear! But then some of us get pretty worked up when we walk into a garden center, or open a Fall bulb catalogue!! If you aren’t a passionate gardener you may not get absorbed.
Me? I totally get it. He makes the listener visualize what he’s experienced that week. I was relieved to get the damned moldy acanthus ripped out. I love this podcast. It’s a bit exhaustive. But Ben covers a lot of territory.
I recommend a glass of wi... more

I was despondent when you announced that you were moving to pastures new, as this is one of my favourite podcasts, and I feared that it would cease to exist. However, what a delight that you are back 🙂 It will be fascinating to hear about plants and gardening in a new country, and I look forward to all the other amusing happenings along the way.
Apple Podcasts5birdsnbugsUnited Kingdom4 years ago - Men-centric ?
So far I have only listened to one episode. I like the poetic language and interesting commentary. As a professional gardener who is also a woman, I was a little put off by the consistent references to other gardeners and garden helpers who are all male... :/. I may listen to another episode and see how it goes, but that was my initial reaction. Thanks.
