Refreshing the paintwork? Fitting new carpets? Updating the decor? Never mind all that! How about pimping your garden!
Join Ben as he transforms his vegetable garden. There are new raised beds to install and fill, a beautiful bench, arbour and arches to install, and some clever screening to put in place. Garden. Pimped.

Great job
Would you recommend top soil/compost mix to fill a new bed?
Looks smashing Ben. Im currently erecting a hothouse for grapes and chillues but the price of polycarbonate is crazy so might start off with clear plastic sheeting to save a few quid.
Where did you get your growing frames please? I’m struggling to find good ones
We love you, BEN!!!!!
I know there have been shows that try to normalize the word pimp like "Pimp My Ride", but the word still means what it means. There are better word choices for this episode.
Did you have a Lottery win by any chance? 🙂 :-).
Could you tell me where you get the veg arches please x
Where did you source the arch please?
I wish I was doing more to make the garden pretty, but compared to last year, this year is downright elegant
do you buy those pallet collar beds or make them? thanks
Great channel, nice to see a fellow countryman go through the same trials and tribulations due to the unpredicatble British weather. Keep up the excellent work, I've still yet to have a successfull tomato crop without them being affected by blight or cracking tomato skins… Hopefully with the inclusion of a greenhouse this year, I may have different results!
You're soooo cute! <3
Being a novice gardener and only just having bought my first house, Ben's videos give me hope! Currently it is a sea of slabs, gravel and slate with three big tree stumps. But hoping that a bit of manual labour will mean over the years I can develop a garden I will love. Seeing from scratch the cardboard method makes it seem a lot less overwhelming!
nice can't wait to see the after.
Hi Ben I sit and look at all your videos while I am crocheting or doing adult coloring but one thing how do I get that bamboo to grow, my garden is small but I learn a lot from u very informative
Could you tell me where you got your arches please?
Looks great!
just done with making a raised bed out of spare parts, it will have worms and a compostbin on 1/3 so that the plants get nutriens that way, and ill finally have a compost bin.
I liked that the new beds you put down were already put together .I don't think we have something like that in the USA?
Hi Ben
Could you please tell me what your raised beds are made of?
Please help, if you can. I bought this wonderful book, along with 2 other books. I received this book in a timely fashion but the other 2 books went to a PC I don't have access to. Now I can't get them. I really would love to read them. If you can re-send send them to me that would be great! (My step-dad doesn't know how to retrieve them.) If you need more info just please text or email me. I don't know how to work Facebook or anything like that. I hope you can help. I can't wait to read the other 2 books! Thank you and have a good day.
hi ben, i am a complete newbie to veggie growing. i fancy having a go and i love your enthusiasm. where do you buy your raised beds from? i really like how they are ready made which suits me. i cant wait to get started thanks.
Thanks Ben, currently planning out my future garden for Witchcliffe in Western Australia and trying to decide between high garden beds or the type you are using and also wanting lots of climbing arches so was very helpful to see this episode.
Spring is just around the corner and this video popped up in my email today! Makes me want to go out and do stuff, but winter here is very wet and windy so I'll do some planning instead. Thank you so much!!
Looks fabulous… but I wanted the ivy gone off that apple tree. It's an invasive pest here, the ivy not the apple that is.
Thanks, I was inspired by one of your other vertical gardening videos to get some arches which I erected this week. You're right, they do add a touch of height and splendour to a garden, and should look good in the summer with peas, beans, sweet peas etc.
Ben, Love your ideas! One little suggestion, put pavers or bricks under your bench arbor legs to keep them from rotting! Keep dirt away from sides as well. Your arbor will last years longer. Garden looks great!
