NEW WEBSITE FOR LONDON EDIBLE GARDENS

2010: Check out the new website recently launched by Robert Stoutzker to promote London Edible Gardens. Robert is a great client to work with – I had fun mapping out the ideas with him and designing the site. Watch www.londonediblegardens.com for further developments as the content grows... (so to speak).

I have also worked with Claudia de Yong, and several other London-based garden designers – the opportunities for a colourful and vibrant website are endless given such wonderful material to work with. And working on Robert's site has made me want to expand my own collection of potted plants and raggedy borders into something altogether more tasty.

I've also come across the 'One Pot Pledge' – which seems an excellent idea – set up by the gardening charity 'Garden Organic' for novice gardens (that will be me). If you agree to cultivate one or more edible pot, you get to access top tips and expert advice on easy-to-grow varieties, visit: www.onepotpledge.org. Why not promote this charity on your own site? They're aiming to get 30,000 novice gardeners to give it a go.

There will also be plenty of advice coming on the London Edible Gardens website, including recipes and tips from Mrs Stoutzker's Catalogue showing you just how versatile, and tasty, an English garden can be.

"Plus it doesn't matter if we all know plants are better value. I'd make the point of this to the customer but if they want trough grown at the extra cost that's their choice I'd just do it"

"I've done 5ft Thorne troughs. Very easy to plant just got a mini digger dug the trench then drop them in couldn't be easier however £250 per m does seem expensive. "

Thought I'd sign up to this forum. And I hope I'm allowed to post stuff for sale on here as this will be a one off? I have for sale a tiny pro robot, it's not the new edition but it's the bigger one of the two. If anyone is interested then please…
