Gardeners’ World 2025 Ep12 | Cottage Colour, Peony Passion & Small Space Gardening

In Gardeners’ World 2025 Episode 12, Monty Don brings life and colour to the cottage garden, adding vibrant underplanting beneath blooming roses. Over in the veg patch, it’s time to thin carrots and plant out tomatoes. Adam Frost visits an inspiring walled garden in Essex, lovingly restored by one dedicated woman. Nick Bailey shares the vision behind his “Make a Metre Matter” show garden, proving that even the tiniest space can make a difference for the planet. Also in this episode: a gardener who transformed a barren new-build plot into a lush, wildlife-friendly retreat, and a peony lover so passionate, she rented an entire field just to grow her favourites. #GardenersWorld2025 #CottageGarden #SmallSpaceGardening #PeonyField #WildlifeGardens
