It’s July, and the new month brings a new set of jobs to get stuck into at Beechgrove. Calum harvests the shallots that were planted last year, and there is a look at lawn care.

It’s July, and with a new month comes a new set of jobs to get stuck into at Beechgrove Garden, with harvesting on the agenda this week. On the shortest day of the year last year, Calum planted his shallots in pots and kept them in the greenhouse for the rest of the winter. They were planted out in spring and now, six months later, they are ready to be harvested and enjoyed.

April last year saw Calum planting the first early batch of potatoes, and now it’s time to get them dug up and tasted.

After an excessively dry spell, followed by an extremely spell, the lawns at Beechgrove need a bit of attention, so a bit of lawn care is needed. And Brian looks at how areas of grass that are left to grow can encourage wildflowers and wildlife.
