Genius Tips for Designing a Beautiful Vegetable Garden
Genius Tips for Designing a Beautiful Vegetable Garden
Today I’m joined by Alexandra Campbell of the Middle Sized Garden who gives us tips on how to design a beautiful garden filled with edible and medicinal plants. She includes specific plants and plant combinations, trees and shrubs, useful plants that look great, the cottage garden style, and the three principles for designing a spectacular garden, no matter the size or your budget.
Today you can also find a video on Alexandra’s channel, where she asks me about my new book, A Woman’s Garden, and using and growing edible flowers. You can watch it over here: https://youtu.be/nOr_Sqj7pDc

i finally received my book, ‘A Women’s Garden’ and am so happy with the beautiful pictures and multiple projects…this video was fabulous and alexandra is so informative…much like yourself…(the greenhouse is so crystal clean)
Awesome video! Thanks to both of you. Lots of useful information and inspiration. From a dry, high altitude, crazy gardener in Colorado USA
Hi Lovely Green garden Why don’t you ask Phillip Payne the Horticulturist that on the Island.
He’s k Owston so much.Adk the trained professional put your 2 heads together
Both of you inspired me to do new tries for my small garden with a small space issue. Thank you so much. Fortunately, Amazon says your book can be delivered to my place, South Korea. It’s supposed to be here on the 20th, May. I can’t wait. π

I really enjoyed this video and picked up some really useful tips from Alexandra. I can’t wait to see what you do with your garden.

More important than anything is planting for pollinators.
Knows so much and is a professional etc
Very informative – edible hedge – love that idea – gonna speak to the neighbour right now. π

Great collaborationβοΈπΈ two of my favorite from across the pond
Just for your information, I received my copy of your book on Thursday, May 6th in Atlanta USA! It was so worth the wait! Am devouring every single page!!
thx for good information π
Thank you Tanya. This topic gets the mind on beautiful plantings as we are planting out summer crops here Illinois in the USA. We are frost free this weekend!
Very useful video! Also, I love your blouse! Where is it from, if you donβt mind me asking?
really enjoyable tanya
Love seeing you both. Great information!πππ»
Two of my favourite garden YouTubers collaborating. What could be better on a gloomy wet Saturday morning. Feeling very inspired. Thanks ladies. πΊπ₯°πΈπ·
I ordered all my friends A Womanβs Garden for our little garden club and Iβm so excited to give them out !! Itβs an incredible work of art I love it so much
This is so inspiring! Iβll be referring back to this Iβm sure. Thank you both for such a great collab!
Great video Tanya
Hi There is nothing wrong with your guests information supplied as many people have valuable information and you can from every one
Edible flower frittata…what! I must do this. Unity harmony and balance I have never thought about a design plan = thank you~
There are so many interesting ideas given by Alexandra, I really enjoyed watching this. π»
One question, what are the flowers shown at 6’38"?
so interesting and informative – thank you so much – two of my favourite gardeners together.xxx
I’ve never seen a pear hedge before @9:09 it’d be great to know how to achieve that. I’ve just had a quick google and I can only see advice on wild pear trees.
Good
Thank you! Great information!
Great ideas for both new and experienced gardeners. Thanks!
Beautiful examples
This is perfect for a FOOD FOREST!!!
Oh boy, what a fantastic discovery this was for me! I am now follwing Alexandra Campbell and bought her guide on privacy, the book i was looking for as a new house will be built next door. Your questions are so interesting, Tanya, and allowed her to answer in a riveting way. What a wonderful moment this video was! To celebrate, I treated myself to your book too. I am not a maker of beautiful things, but I feel I could under your gentle guidance!
That was really interesting. I’m staring at my barren grass lawn feeling exceptionally inadequate! I love the idea of replacing fences with hedges, unfortunately I’ve got a very thin fence, with little room for planting something that would grow to a similar height (say 80cm) whilst taking up a narrow footprint. I’ll keep searching.
Two of my favorite garden channels! There is so much good information here. I’ve been working on several garden areas and can definitely refer back to this video! Thank Tanya, I did not know Alexandra was an author. Fun, more books to look up π
Thanks. I’ve designed my 3rd half plot as an edible forest-style garden beginning of March 2020. It’s coming along nicely
Here in Cyprus, my Nasturtiums are ready! Bring on the frattata!
The topic of a beautiful edible garden is one I have been looking into for years. It is so wonderful to be finding more and more information on this topic over the last couple years! Thank you so much, Tanya and Alexandra for this interesting and informative video! (It is so good, I took notes!!!)
Hello Tanya. Just a quick note to let you know I have received your book. It’s wonderful. So many things to try. From Ontario, Canada.
Great video and gardening design tips Tanya.
Let nature take it back Tan, let the bugs and the bees take their place. Keep feeding it but let it rest for 5 years and grow its own humus. Then after the five years are up make it a dedicate space. The plants are not important, the biodiversity of the area is. Learn your birds, insects, sun positioning, wind strength and treat accordingly. You know what i mean. x.
Goodβππππππππππππ
Hi ya!. Thanks π
