You may have forgotten, or never knew, that Geoff Hamilton's TV garden

created for the purposes of TV broadcast.

An interesting place to visit. I was surprised how really small
some of those plots are. I never quite saw the point of a lawn
whose diameter was about the same as my outstretched arms.
