2:34
year I say to myself I'm going to pull
2:36
him up to some taking over the somehow I
2:38
never have out. So
2:40
you're fun going in all sorts of places

2:56
pretty much the last thing you want
2:58
from a productive allotment Malaysia. Sometimes it's
3:00
not about growing three to four your
3:02
kitchen, sometimes it's an ongoing would ever
3:05
does that make you happy and they
3:07
do that every time. It's
3:11
not just me, they may have the the number of
3:13
birds that some feet on the meteor is unbelievable. When
3:17
you remember very clearly as going to
3:19
work my allotment one early morning in
3:21
September October not I walked up the
3:23
path, assuming the distance a huge bright
3:25
green blur as much. As
3:28
I approached to blow came into focus and
3:30
then suddenly dispersed in a flurry of feathers
3:32
and I realized an entire flock of Ringneck
3:34
Parakeets had been feeding on Mccluster Chance of
3:37
House as one of the most beautiful sights
3:39
I'd ever seen, all within five hundred yards
3:41
of the noise and sizes and also to

The magic of gardening. On.

3:58
first thing is that they need a nap. The

4:08
He can throw them in pots but be prepared
4:10
freedom more to regularly as once they start growing
4:12
in earnest they are going to need it. Think
4:15
of the plant in the musical Little Shop of Horrors
4:17
on your in the right hurt. Another.
4:20
Thing that pops is that they can be
4:22
a tricky place. Varietal pants with enormous have
4:24
use our heads. If all goes well in
4:27
terms of watering and feeding, you may find
4:29
that they're continually song over because as so,
4:31
top heavy. The
4:33
other thing about some files is that they
4:35
need an awful lot of sunlight. Not as
4:37
a little bit a lot. Try
4:40
to find the sunny spot you can and you'll
4:42
be rewarded with a months to plant. Anything
4:45
less than this will tend to be
4:47
a bit weedy trying to reach of
4:49
