I would love to have good gardening shows like this in the United States, that provide real gardening information, not just "make over" shows.

Great blog. I learned something here.

You should look into a Rion Greenhouses. They are extremely popular in the USA. They are the number one selling Greenhouse.

Thanks for all of the information here.

Hello Carol...my name is Kirstie. I saw your prog 4 the first time the other day & i recognised u from when I was very young. I'm originally from South Molton,Devon..I now live in Brighton. I grew up with your daughter, Alice..we went 2 little school & senior school 2 gether & I came 2 your house a few times as a child. Sorry 2 write u this on this web page, but I didn't know how else 2 get hold of you. Please give my love 2 Alice..I hope she is well etc. Well done on your success with 'Grow your own veg' & 'Gardeners World' Mrs Klein & all the best 4 the future..x

could i have the recipe for the cabbage dish shown on last weeks programe

I looked forward to Carol Klein's programme last evening - what a disappointment! I wanted to know HOW to grow the salad vegetables - what I listened to was some absolutely awful background 'music' and Carol sounding like she was having an orgasm everytime she ate a leaf. I am still none the wiser about HOW to grow these plants in containers - I will go an buy a gardening book tomorrow by someone like Sandra Raven who talks commonsense.

this has been driving me mad - I know the music so well but can't place it, please help. Is it Genesis, ELP, Yes? It must be someone like that

Watching the series was like delving into my old vinyl collection from the 70's!! Unable to tell you exactly what all the track names were but I heard Genesis several times, ELP and one of my old favourites Greenslade. Is Carol a fan of the same music as me??!!

Congrats Carol on "Grow Your Own Veg". I really enjoyed it and roll on the spring/summer to get out in the garden. Like previous comments, I also enjoyed thoroughly the soundtracks especially Nick Drake and ELP "from the beginning". What a throw-back - think I'll have to go out and buy that album. Also you look amazing (great clothes and jewellery). Hope you'll be doing some more of this kind of television.

There was some Gryphon as well.

Came across this page while looking for the source of music for "Grow Your Own Veg" - a show I enjoyed a lot given my new interest in growing my own veg in our new garden. Anyway, thought I'd put my thoughts forward about some of the music - Rick Wakeman comes to mind as a major contributor, a lot of the music contains his "signature sound", so I'm guessing a lot of his music was used. Can't confirm it, but I'll keep looking, the tracks used were chosen well and fit the program perfectly, giving it an uplifting feel, which growing your own veg should do.

An entertaining gardening - quite surprised to hear the music of Emerson, Lake & Palmer on a gardening programme, but it matched the show strangely well.
