Chris Beardshaw was on gardeners question time on radio 4 today and repeated 2pm on Sunday saying he will be there a few days a month for the show

the garden designs solution was good working on size and plants to put in, I liked the trail with the climbing plants with coloured canes.

Do you have a trail you liked best?

The greenhouse that is now 3 tiers got broken it did blow down a few times so I ended up tying it to the fence but now fence has changed and can't do that crap will weigh it down thanks that has reminded me

If you have old 2ltr drink bottles you can cut the bottom off use them as greenhouse open the lid when needed push them into soil over the plants that could work or the cold frame as you said should
