Hey Iwan, I’m a garden designer/landscaper, and looking at your space I believe that the best use of it would be to have a flat roofed garden ‘cupboard’. Then you could put plants on top to incorporate it more or even have a sedum green roof on top. Also maybe think of using a square planter for your olive. As it would use up less space.

I would create a catio so the kittens can also enjoy the outdoors in a safe way. The shed is a great idea, it will sure make it look cozy and tidy.

Yeh it’s called a drip groove on the underside of the coping stones. Also try applying some brick sealer to the brickwork to stop water seeping through! Loved the video though! 😉

Hi Iwan I have a sentry shed like a previous viewer said and yes it’s amazing what you can get inside one. They look attractive. I painted mine to look like a beach hut in blue and white stripes. Also would love to see the cats on the roof terrace but make it nice and secure for them. Loved the tulips 🌷🌞

Why not have an Arched Wooden Garden Arbour seat storage bench with trellis sides. It will have multiple purposes: nice to look at, have storage for garden hand tools, hose etc and a very nice place to sit with a coffee or glass of wine on those lovely balmy summer evenings ❤🥂🍾. Would love to see how your new floors look. After you introduced us to the company and their samples, I ordered some, hence would like to see how they look in situ, it’ll give me a better idea of the end result. Cheers Iwan, love your channel xx

Clematis like to have moist, shady feet, but sunny tops. Make sure you’re pruning at the correct time as well (some are summer, some are autumn). Although saying that mine get neglected a bit and still flower if they feel like it!

Hi Mr Carrington. I must have missed this video so just caught up now. I always enjoy your videos you’re so relaxing to watch. I love the ideas for the kitchen and the garden ideas. I think the first image of the kitchen has too many shelves and they don’t look like you could fit much on them but like the 3 shelves. It’s amazing what you can do now online. Loved the water slide I bet pumpkin and mittens would love that 😂. I absolutely love the tulips you bought and thank you for the tip about putting artificial flowers in water I never knew that so will be doing that now too. I love the pink clogs magnet I have a blue clogs one from Amsterdam but I wasn’t actually in Amsterdam was passing through Schippol airport on way to Switzerland and bought the clogs but after seeing your Amsterdam video I definitely would love to go. Have a lovely Tuesday and great week and looking forward to your next video ❤️

I feel like a shed would overwhelm the rooftop garden. I would either add more bench seating with hidden storage, or have something smaller, maybe next to the door, so when you look out onto your rooftop garden that your view is not obscured by a shed. Just my opinion.

@flohough1870 3 ай бұрын

Love those tulips, don't cut them! But keep an eye on them being in water, you might be better off buying some clear marbles to put in the bottom for a water effect because the wires in them might rust. Loved seeing the rooftop garden.

Ooh, love the idea of a roof garden shed! Yes, already received my signed copy of Dainty's new book, it's so pretty all the way through. The tulips look beautiful, please don't shorten their stems. I think they're what's known as Parrot Tulips. The plant 8:34 is a Sedum, I think. Clematis don't like sunlight on the base of the plant. I put two plant pot halves around mine, and they are very hungry plants too. A good feed will boost the flower production and growth. Remember this rhyme for clematis...if it flowers before June, no need to prune. There are 3 classes of clematis each with different pruning times, so it depends on the variety you have. ☺

Your Clematis needs something to climb up like a trellis and also they like their roots in the shade and therefore cold. Lesley, Victoria, BC. Canada.

Hi Iwan, love the shed idea, I wondered what about a corner shed, rather than make it a main focus but a more space appearance? or even get a summer house all across the back or would that be too heavy? Sorry, my brain goes off on it's own when I am thinking of spending someone elses money lol!! Seriously think in a corner rather than the middle be nice!!

Hello Iwan I have missed seeing you due to a long trip from west coast of California to the Atlantic coast of Florida due to the passing of my 97 yr old mum. Died in peace at my brothers home . On her own terms… but now home and the thoughts come to mind. A really nice way to spend time is with you . Lovely roof garden this year🌺 the olive tree would look lovely in a square pot too. A garden shed would be nice if it does not block your favorite view or too large to take up your space. Love the shelves for the kitchen idea too. You will work it all out to suit your needs. Have to get caught up on any I’ve missed the past month. Love to you and your darling kittens. ❤❤❤❤❤

Love your plans. I have a quite small garden and needed something to just store my garden tools etc. I bought a sentry shed it's the perfect size and I've seen them customised in so many different ways beach huts , wacky artwork etc. And they are small enough to move around when you want a change. I have Catherine's book it arrived last week and it's very hard to put down, I love her channel she is so down to earth and reminds me of my daughter so much. Big hugs to the kittens 😸 xx

Clematis like their roots cool and their 'heads' in the sun. I'd advise maybe a bigger pot and completely surround the pot with other pots to keep the sun from baking it, that should help, also if you could get some biggish stones to place around the clematis on the soil (might be a problemto source in London though🤔🤔) Hope that helps x❤🇮🇪

@lornawood3260 3 ай бұрын

I like the idea of a small shed in the roof garden. However, with the size of the area, I would choose a “lean-to” style, which would be like if you sliced the image you have sliced in half vertically along the ridge of the roof. This wouldn’t impede upon your view or block any sun. You could have a small upright section on one side for a broom or even a hook on the door, and then shallow shelving/storage on the other with a pull out shelf for potting. I hope this makes sense! Always love your videos, Iwan.

Hello from tulip country 🇳🇱🧡 I love the tulips. They look so very real. I know all about cats and real tulips... not a good combination 🫣. I had to give my bouquet of tulips away because Mylo started to chew on them... Maybe a storage bench is an option for your deck??

There are people in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 that make specific “ Catios” for indoor cats - so they can go safely outside but be safe.

@tanyahermann3431 3 ай бұрын

Maybe a combo catio and small shed the entrance to your roof garden. Have the shed space off to the side so it would be more like a narrow closet to hang some tools and stack your empty pots and other items also. And then there would be space to have part of the garden area as a catio as well. I’d say keep both close to your garden entrance so you still have the far end more open.

Clematis needs trellis. Their vines grow up and need something to cling to.

@carmelg971 3 ай бұрын

Home bargains have small obelisks you could get to your clematis to grow up if you wind their firefly wire solar light around the cone shape it looks like a mini Christmas tree I have them scattered around my garden. I liked the look of the shed when you mentioned it before I thought you meant the tall ones that are about 18" - 2'.
