Love Your Garden

Alan Titchmarsh and his team return with a new series of the gardening show which helps people create their dream outdoor space. This week, he surprises Louise from Hampshire, who is suffering from a life-threatening illness. The team set to work creating a stunning Japanese-style garden for her. Alan looks for inspiration at an amazing oriental garden called the Apple Court.

Alan Titchmarsh and his team are in the Brecon Beacons where they attempt to create a garden suitable for a big family. Rob and Rachel Jones have five children, including an autistic son and a daughter with cerebral palsy. The couple particularly want a space where the whole family can all gather together. Alan gets some inspiration from a wonderful family garden in Monmouthshire.

Alan Titchmarsh and the team are in Barking, where they hope they can coax 90-year-old Iris back into her garden. Since her husband died, the garden has become neglected, but Iris longs to have somewhere to sit and smell the scent of the roses. David Domoney constructs the perfect pathway, while Katie Rushworth sets to work finding a variety of rose which is wildlife-friendly.

The team transform a large garden that played a central role in a family's life but became neglected following a personal tragedy. Wendy and Graham Pott's son Matt was killed in a hit-and-run accident three years ago, after which the devastated couple sank into a deep depression. However, their eldest son Dan is having a wedding blessing, and they think it's time that they returned the garden to its original function.

Alan and his team visit Norwich to help the Costello family, who have moved to a bungalow with an unruly and dishevelled garden.

Alan and the team visit the Bluebell Wood Children's Hospice in South Yorkshire and work on creating a garden of tranquillity in its surrounding grounds.
