      <image:caption>Marigolds are legendary for their ability to repel nematodes, aphids, whiteflies, and cabbage worms. The French marigold (Tagetes patula) is especially effective at controlling root-knot nematodes. Their bright flowers attract bees, hoverflies, and butterflies. Marigolds also release allelopathic compounds into the soil that suppress harmful nematodes, improving soil health for future crops. My greenhouse is always full of marigolds in summer.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Nasturtiums are classic “sacrificial” or trap crops, luring aphids, whiteflies, and cabbage butterflies away from vegetables like brassicas, cucumbers, and tomatoes. They also repel squash bugs and cucumber beetles with their peppery scent. Nasturtium flowers and leaves attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, and their sprawling growth provides living mulch that suppresses weeds and keeps soil cool. When chopped and dug in, nasturtiums add organic matter to the soil, improving fertility over time. And did you know you can eat them! Try them as a salad garnish.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Sweet alyssum is a magnet for beneficial insects, especially hoverflies, lacewings, and parasitic wasps that control aphids, whitefly, and caterpillars. It doesn’t repel pests directly but enhances biological pest control. Low-growing alyssum also works as a living mulch, helping suppress weeds and conserve soil moisture.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mint is a powerhouse for pest deterrence, repelling ants, aphids, flea beetles, and cabbage moths with its pungent oils. It grows aggressively, so it’s best kept in containers near crops. Mint’s flowers draw in pollinators and hoverflies, the latter being natural aphid predators. Though not a soil improver, it contributes by masking crop scents from pests. I'm convinced this is THE strongest performer in my greenhouse when it comes to pest deterrence.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>SPIDERS - I'm only talking about the nice ones here. Some people may think all spiders are scary, but garden spiders quietly keep populations of flies, moths, and other insects in check. A balance means fewer bugs on your plants so don't go squashing the little critters out of fear. If you leave the nice ones alone, they'll just go about their business.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The bug files</image:title>
      <image:caption>SLUGS - Night-time grazers that devour seedlings and tender foliage. Slimy little critters! SOLUTION - Beer traps (beer in shallow dishes - attracts them and they drown), collect or squash by hand at night, or use pet-safe slug pellets. These are the 'last-frontier' in my greenhouse. I've had great success with companion planting for all other pesky little critters, but slugs are my nemesis. I'm still working on the best natural solution. I've tried the 'old wives tales' of crushed eggs and coffee grinds. Neither worked. I've found some success around hostas with coarse wood-chip mulch. I'm also trialing wool weed mat this year to see if that's a deterrent.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>BEES - the ultimate pollinators. From bumblebees to honeybees, they ensure your fruit, veg, and flowers set seed and crops thrive. I see a lot of people getting nervous around bees. If you just leave them alone to do their thing, they won't hurt you. I happily co-exist with bees in the garden, and we just get on with our respective jobs. I often find bumble bees sleeping in my globe artichoke flowers. The busy little bees need a rest from time to time.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>SWEET PEAS - beautifully scented, romantic blooms that look lovely in a vase. They flower from late spring to early summer. Propagation is by seed in autumn or early spring, and they need cool weather to germinate.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>COSMOS - airy, daisy-like flowers that add lightness and movement. They bloom from summer through to autumn, until frosts start. Propagation is best by sowing seed direct in spring. They're quick germinators.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>LISIANTHUS - elegant, rose-like flowers, with a very long vase life. They're a florist favourite, blooming from summer into early autumn. Propagation is usually by purchasing seedlings as they're very slow from seed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>RANUNCULUS - I've added these to the list because they're beautiful flowers and last a long time in the vase. But frankly they're temperamental to grow. They're most successful if pre-sprouted before planting into well-drained soil. I have grown them, and they are beautiful, but they don't love my clay soil, so I've not persisted with them. They're on the list because they're so lovely, so if you have the right, free-draining soil, they might be well worth a go. They flower from mid to late spring.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>ECHINACEA (Coneflowers) - bold centres with daisy-like petals. They have rustic charm and nice long stems. They bloom from summer through autumn. Propagation is by division in spring or autumn. You can grow from seed, but it takes a while.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>ROSES - a classic cut flower, with unmatched fragrance and colour variety. Many varieties are repeat bloomers, blooming from spring through to autumn, and have perfect long stems suitable for floral arrangements. Propagation is best by grafted plants from nurseries, but can be propagated by hardwood cuttings, although this is the slower option.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>CHRYSANTHEMUMS - an essential late-season cut flower in a huge variety of forms. Some are simply stunning, and they have a long vase life. They bloom from late summer to late autumn. Propagation is by division or cuttings in spring.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>GLADIOLUS - tall, dramatic spikes that add vertical interest to arrangements. The pictured variety is Gladiolus Nanus "The Bride" variety which are slightly different, and I think, far more beautiful, than the blooms we more typically associate with the name. Propagation is by corms planted in succession every few weeks in spring if you want staggered blooms. Mine are permanently in the ground, so I get one flush of blooms in late spring.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a501cca58fdb69735e8c43/1757476816000-3692PY4IBI6GVMR2GGMX/bn.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>AMARANTHUS - dramatic, trailing or upright plumes, these are fantastic for adding texture and have a range of colours with either burgundy/burnt orange or green foliage. They bloom from mid-summer to autumn. Propagation is best by direct-sowing after the last frost. You can start them indoors for transplanting too. The pictured variety is 'Crimson Fingers', and it self-sows readily every year in my garden. I just dig up any that are in the wrong spot and plant them en masse so they create a beautiful garden display. They're excellent for the vase, but also as a means of adding colour and texture contrast to any flower garden.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>LILIES - tall, elegant stems with multiple large blooms per stem. They're a florist staple. They bring height and fragrance (Oriental varieties) to bouquets and have an excellent vase life when harvested at bud stage. They bloom from early summer through to late summer depending on the type. They're propagated most commonly from bulbs planted in autumn or early winter. Clumps can be divided every few years once established. One BIG note of caution - every part of the lily plant is poisonous to cats. The most likely way they'd ingest lily is from the pollen brushing onto their fur, which they then lick off. I've had cats and lilies side by side for decades and never had a problem, but I don't use them as cut flowers in a vase. That's when cats are more likely to brush up against them. I put them on the list because they are a beautiful cut flower. Whether you use them or not may depend on your tolerance for risk if you also have cats.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>DAHLIAS - there's an incredible range of shapes and sizes. They're prolific bloomers and have a superb vase life. They'll flower from mid-summer through to the first frosts. Propagation is by tubers that you can divide in late autumn or spring, but can also be grown from cuttings or seed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>BEARDED IRIS - sculptural spring flowers with intense colours. They're striking in floral arrangements, blooming from mid to late spring. Division of rhizomes in late summer is the best way to propagate them. They're easy to grow and are drought-tolerant once established. Make sure you plant them with the tops of the rhizomes sitting above the soil, so they don't rot. They love to bake in the sun.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>PEONIES - my favourite by far! Luxurious, lush blooms in spring. Even the buds look amazing in a vase. They have a long vase life too. They bloom from mid to late spring - it's a short, but spectacular season. Propagation is by division of clumps in autumn but be aware that they don't really like to be moved and can sulk for a year or three. Some varieties establish faster than others. Festiva Maxima is my fastest for reestablishing, but I don't move them unless I absolutely have to. A stunning flower that I think is only rivalled by the arrival of Cafe au Lait dahlia in summer. That's the only time my allegiance to peonies is tested.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>ZINNIAS - Bold, bright, or dusky salmon/beige, heat-loving flowers with strong stems. These are great for summer bouquets. They bloom from midsummer to autumn. Propagation is by seed, which is best sown direct in late spring after frosts. You can raise from seed indoors for transplanting and they'll do OK, but direct sown is best for this beautiful flower.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The cutting garden</image:title>
      <image:caption>SUNFLOWERS - Cheerful, bold blooms that make instant impact. Branching types give multiple stems. You can get the usual bright yellow varieties but also cream and burgundy too. Propagation is best by direct sown seed in spring. They're fast growers.</image:caption>
