From new naturalism and earthworks at Wildside, to the breathtaking views across Tresco Island, to extraordinary fairy tale hotels, the girls discuss special moments and numerous takeaways — both for their gardens at home, and for future visits to this very special area of the UK, often under-visited by American garden-trippers looking for “The Big Five.” (Though which gardens constitute “The Big Five” is still up for debate.) For the WHOLE story, this is an episode you’ll particularly appreciate by following up on The Garden Mixer Youtube channel , where the video version is #jamfirst packed with photos and snark. (Even if Marianne insists it should be #creamfirst.) What the heck is she talking about? By the end of this episode, you’ll not only know what clotted cream is, but you’ll be well versed in the right way to layer it on a scone. At least according to Marianne. Plus, microscopes, dahlias, & unbelievably, Beavis and Butthead. All on this week’s Garden Mixer. ___________________ Be sure to hit the subscribe button so we can keep you smiling while you hit the mess [your garden] out there.
