Just call me Titchmarsh, Alan Titchmarsh
This time last year that pair of hands had no idea what they were doing.
I had to explain and show them every step of the way from the seed planting, to the care of the seedlings, to the planting out and staking.
Yesterday I got home to this, the I am concentrating face. To find that G was now an independent gardener planting out his seedlings with no help or guidance from me.
Perfectly confident in what he was doing, muttering away to himself about possibilities and planting distances and things that he will need to check in his book later. Completely contented in his work. Hard to believe that his time last year he was all questions and whys like a child.
The last time I saw a look like this was in old pictures of Daddy in his garden years ago. Nice to think the knowledge and the love of getting your hands muddy gets passed on.





Aren’t they cute when they set out on their own to use their new skills? Those are great shots. I’m jealous, the weather here hasn’t been great for working in the garden.
Great pictures! I love the concentration on his face in that third picture :-)
Wow, looks very proffessional, great pics too! I forgot to put in canes when planting out and may have ruined my first crop!
The teacher should be very proud of her student.Soon he’ll be telling you of a newly discovered technique and the circle will be complete.Pat on the back from me sweetie
Well done you; taught my partner all about gardeniong and now he’s as passionate as me about it xx
What a pro !! such a gentle touch but ‘My, what clean hands you have G !!’ Bet Gemma made you wash them for the photo shoot !!!!
That’s really sweet!! The seeds that you planted in teaching him have grown, too :o) just like the plants!
Very professional! My own Alan Titchmarsh is more obsessed with his lawn than anything else so the plants are left to me. Really want to have a go at growing something to eat as well as flowers.
Looks like he did a very professional job.
With me is the oposite: my man is the expert.
G’s fingers are definitely turning green.
There’s something very touching about your photographs………… what a wonderful moment……
